i wasn't personally expecting the $800 resistance be broken this soon specially with all the tiny rises during the $760-$790 range.

but i was certain that when $800 is broken, price rise is going to speed up and now it is already at $820 by the time i am writing this.  8)

now the question is where is the new top in this rise?

it's all being made up as it goes along so it's uncharted waters.

even if it falls and flatlines a while from here it's certainly shut enough people up.

Looks pretty parabolic to me since the mid 2015 lows...Could it be?

Breaking through the $800 barrier is just a first step to what has to come. Next step will be maintaining the price above $800 as I believe it will be a very difficult task.

What you are seeing currently is the result of people panic buying. I want to see what happens tomorrow after people calm down and come back to earth.

Don't forget that we can't just continue to go up without seeing major players taking profits at current levels. Don't be surprised when we'll be falling slightly below $800 again.

Time to celebrate. I don't much yet even today, but still happy to see bitcoin price reached beyond $800.
It's going to be hell for altcoins affected by its hykes.

10K I told you so

It's really awesome and encouraging as it is attaining this feet even before the end of the year

i already treat my friends because bitcoin has been successful this year. just like last year bitcoin always raising up when Christmas day is coming and ihope this will be the reason of getting on $1000 barrier per bitcoin. I've been a long user of bitcoin and now I'm currently celebrating with my office mate because I already sold a lot of bitcoin with a great return remember todays bitcoin price is amazingly high.

This time price increase might take it to $850 or more. Made this prediction based upon the price movement that happened during the last year. In the past too, the same price increase took place around the days close to the year end. Also buying now seems to be effective as the price variation is continuing.

i glad with this situation even i didn't expect the price jump with pretty far today however the current price was already $825 and i think after Christmas the price maybe will through $850 and kinda optimistic for that

The price was higher later last year.

Personally I did not expect that BTC can reach 800$ this year based on last two year when things at this time usually calm down,but this year looks completely different.Currently we are very close to 830$ on the western exchanges and China is on 842$,so there is no some big differences at this time.

The question is how much will prices go high before we see drop and can we hold above 800$.In any case it's nice to see this price after a long time,nice gift for holidays.It seems that Santa Claus also loves BTC :)

I admit I didn't believe that bitcoin hit the point of 800$ by Christmas, I have said it may hit this number only in orthodox Christmas. But the target completed even earlier. Now the next target is 900$! Any suggestions of when it may happen?

The price of bitcoin is 821 but i think it will not stay for too long.. and i think it can be decrease soon.
Well before its happen i will sell my own bitcoins sooner just watch the price if i sell my bitcoin it can affect or not.
And i think many people and traders are still waiting if it will stay in 1 day well we are in new resistance.. but i am not expecting this january that the price will stay at this price.

Price seems to got a small correction now from the $830 level back to $820. I don't expect price to go below $800 even if it undergo another correction. Growth seem really stable this time rather than huge pump/dump.

As bitcoin already halving, it will keep increasing until the end of year and start low on january but gradually increase.
Just look on my local site graph about the increasing condition , bitcoin will reach $ 1000 on next year

I remember those people here stating that $750 (or near that) is so much high price to consider so they decided not to buy at that rate and wait for some dip. But now because of the road to $800 became success, I think they will realized more that bitcoin price movement can't really be predicted accurately. It's a matter of facing the possible risk while people have an active trades.

Who knows that this $800 price will be the new bottom some months later. Let's keep a close watch to this to avoid being late.

I predicted us to break $800 over the weekend, I was wrong there but not far wrong. Really hope this pump keeps going & going.

These are the price targets that mainstream financials have been waiting for in terms of allowing Bitcoin to prove itself ready for the big league money to arrive. Ongoing capital controls across the world are only going to help fuel the rocket for higher trajectory.

I didn't expect such a decent price increase to happen in such a short time frame. I took the current price as a nice opportunity to cash out a small percentage of my coins. I just hope we'll be able to maintain our position above $800 as most of the people are more than happy with it. Only point of attention is - When will the first bit of drama show up...

I don't think anybody can predict a top for this move now, we could literally be looking at a ridiculously big rise.
This is gentlemen.

Possibly most users here have expected the price increase along the days of year end every year. But this time too it has started, so this doesn't look to be a surprise happening, because every year it is an assured rise. Only the variation seems to differ.

I seen that the price from $821 was decrease gradually and now its $818 and i think dont expect that it can be stay long in that price like other said whales are there and they will see bitcoins soon. this is what other do that many people are will panic to sell.. and buy bitcoins if people are selling that can affect the value of bitcoin of increases. .

I woke up late today and noticed the price sky rocketed over night. Just like that it was $22 from what it was when I went to bed. That is an amazing feat even by bitcoin standards! :o
We will see it go beyond $850 soon I hope.

Its just so nice that we have reached this price to be honest, I really think that we should be happy with it and that it can reach the 1000 dollar real fast.

Yes, that is true . the current bitcoin prices rise very high. even I can not believe because it happens very quickly. we are all lucky, we can get the highest bitcoin prices at year end. it was very exciting.

I never take things for granted in life. Especially not when it comes to something so unpredictable as the Bitcoin market. You can't just assume that because we have seen the price increase in a certain month last year, that it surely will happen this year as well. Those that did expect the price to increase to current levels have done a good job as they are in the profits right now.

on my opinion this is a great news for everybody who trust bitcoin for their money. we don't really need to pursue to reach $1000 this is already enough if it reach $1000 well that will be the bonus. being came from $500 to $820 is so impossible if we think but it happen so i think there's no impossible for bitcoin as long as the users keep storing their money on this crypto currency.

820 dollar is pretty nice and I think that its a nice amount without any doubts, it can even go to a higher amount soon people!

Can bitcoin sustain its rally? Or profit-taking will take place before or on christmas day? If the uptrend continue till christmas day, breaking another level then bitcoin users will have a very merry christmas. Sustaining the momentum beyond new year's day is another story.

I guess we all are having a very merry xmas anyway  ;)

Yes its almost 860 USD now on preev.com in just 2 days since it reached the 800 and now bursting it to 900.  Can't wait to see the $1000 ;D after the end of this month or the after the year ends.

We already break the $850 price. Now we are moving forward to $900 a piece. Its very nice to see the price. Every hour im checking the price and its very exciting to see because the price is really increasing rapidly. But i dont think we will reach the $1000 a piece before the year ends. I dont assume too much because the last i assume, the price is drop to $500.

it will be a party of course. an increase in the price of bitcoin I predict will last until early 2017. everyone will feel a significant impact. we will see a lot of people smiling broadly as they have a lot of money.

Well, bitcoin rise when this happens so quickly. I was surprised to see the current price. if you hold bitcoin from early 2016, probably by now you have gained so many advantages. This current rise really make people amazed by bitcoin. I think, will be very many people who are looking for bitcoin in 2017

Lets hope it will be so. The price will still go up if there many more people interested in bitcoin. Some will perhaps buy if they think they don't want to miss "the train". Price now at 860 dollar on CCEX and today it went for a while to 870 dollar did i see.

i both hope this happens and not happens at the same time.
because we all like a bigger price and that would be the result of what you said but i am afraid of instability in price and crashes that it can cause.


would you care explaining why you think this rise was "ridiculously" big? and you do realize that it is only about 8% rise right?

for that $820, i think there are many people make big profit meanwhile many people still hodl their bitcoin in their wallet as they want to sell in higher price. after it reach in $860, i think the price will go up in $890 or even in $900.

Bitcoin is on the top right now and rapidly increasing when i was fall aslep yesterday bitcoin was at the $800 dollar and now bitcoin is at $862 bitcoin will be continuously increasing not because in demand but because people wanting too bitcoin will be the biggest currency will be use in this world.

Yes, its very nice that we have reached this price so insane fast, I think that it will even go to a higher amount soon. around the 1000 dollars.

Love the idea of having the amount of bitcoin that I have held this long finally paying off in the long cold winter time.
Time to celebrate mates! ;)

cool, but still sub $1000

could we get $1000 this year?

Still sub $1000? Looks like you are expecting too much from the price to happen in such a short period of time. Give the market some time to settle at current prices first.

People are extremely happy with what we have achieved so far. The last thing we want to see is a quick peak to $1000 where after reaching it we will experience a massive red candle.

I hope we'll not see $1000 this year as it is simply too fast. I prefer the price to go up slowly in which we can expect more sustainability. That's what I consider to be the most important aspect.

At this point (and indeed always) it is difficult to predict what will happen next, but once that strong resistance is broken we could expect a powerful rally towards the next resistance, which in my opinion will be around $1000. It is a matter of waiting and seeing.

I think that it is only normal for bitcoin to go to the current value. It had been very undervalued recently.

You could have made $650+ per coin if you bought in mid 2015 where the price per coin was only $200 plus minus. That is amazing, more than 200% profit in less than 2 years, doing nothing!

Looks like we have the possibility to hit $900.
Even if we see a sharp drop, I doubt it would drop below $850 at this point.

It is steady at $900 now. Bitstamp is showing $904.4 so it is holding at that and your right  ;)
It won't go below $850 not the remaining of this year! ;D

It is showing an very good high of $912 on bitstamp which I believe is the highest it has been for over 2 years now.
This is a historic time for bitcoin right now and if you are part of it you should be proud to be part of history.
If you hold some that is. ;D

Indeed, but it is surprising that it broken $900 resistance that easy.  I know bitcoin is really bullish but i was surprised in less than 1 day it breaks $900.  Is there some kind of manipulation in here? Are they pumping bitcoin price until the end of the year? Or this is  just a natural growth? I hope the price increase is natural, because i don't want to see bitcoin dec. 2013 - 2015 price trend again.

This is just a normal pump there is similar movement just like last year.. this is my 2 times seen the price touch again in 900 value.. and i hope it can stay long in this level.. after this christmass if there is dumping coins happen well i can say that it is the same as last year movement lets see after this christmass..

I was also convinced that that the resistance at $800 was going to rule and even I was expecting a slight correction towards $720, and that is why I made the mistake of selling a good part of my coins at $800.

Now I have to wait for the market does not go up so much to be able to buy more coins at a good price.  :(

If this is normal pump, we can see a correction soon then.  I wonder what would be the next floor of Bitcoin on Jan. next year, probably $950 - $1000?  Is it possible?  Or are we going back to $850 - $900?  I hope it is the first one, but it would be better if Bitcoin price continue to increase.  :)

That's a great idea. it has broken and now BTC is rising highly maybe it reaches at 1100$ in february , 2017

this now bitcoin price can run to 1000 dollar/bitcoin
maybe can reach in end year 2016
or first quarter month in 2017

But I like to speculate that $1000 levels may happen in next 12 hours. When I writing posts prices are trading around $915 with today's high at $918 levels in bitstamp. Bitccoin prices start making headlines again, I believe that is the only needed thing for reaching moon.

Media coverage will get new adopters and then new ATH. This way it will keep to cycle again and again.

820$ is only the beginning to go ATH!! Well see high price of bitcoin next year. And ATH could achieved in the mid year of 2017. This is what i see in the future of bitcoin.

Next target is $1,000 soon price will be up to that milestone just few hours left but I've high expectation before end of this year it will entered into 4 Figures easily. Resistance is not so high so with current trend it looking very possible and I'm pretty sure about this.

to be honest when i was speculating about this rise, saying "when $800 resistance is broken the rise is going to be fast" i wasn't expecting a whopping $100 rise after that. but i am very happy that my speculation came true and am still very interested to see how this current small rally of  ours is going to end.

we are not expecting the increase is to fast but the other side, we are really happy with this increasing and i am sure that the price will be increase than just $900 before. but for the new years euphoria, i don't think the price will going to high than $900.

Please correct the tittle of this thread : (1,100$) I told you so.
Yes, This price had passed over 1,100$ yesterday and it still continue to seek a new peak.
It's leading to the price 1,200$ in next 24 hours. it's amazing.

Well we are having a biiiiiiig red candle down to sub 1k, lets see if it does recover from this. 820 might happen soon

I think bottom has already been reached.

It is dropping again.

Exactly!
People talk a lot about panic selling and I grant them that it always happen. When you reach a symbolic price like 1100$ you get tons of people who suddenly want to take their share and get at least a foot on the ground and out of the boat.
But panic buying is a thing too! Seeing the price falling like hell some people will just want to take part in all that fearing to miss the upper correction!
So let's wait and see what happens when people calm down. The price can go back to 1000$ as well as falling back to 500$ right now.

I think it will be 950$-1,000$ in this month. The decrease of bitcoin is only bear trap and They want more cheap bitcoins.
Please calm down. Do not try to sell anything if the price is down. Just only  buy more.

I think we will never see again such price as 400-500$ per coin. Maybe today's drop has connection with today's orthodox Christmas and people cashed our their money to celebrate this day? The same story was with 25th December and 1st January as I remember.

Meh, I'm not selling for a 20% dip. Screw that lol. I'm not a newbie, I can handle it  ;D. If you can't stomach 40% up then 20% down maybe you should bury some dollars in the backyard lol. At least then you know you'll always have -3%/year buying power :). Print more money! That'll solve the issue!

From the high of $1033 on January 5th, 2017, bitcoin has been tearing though the support floors after floors, we're now looking at $890 right now.

We will surely see $820 this week.

If you bought at $1000, my heart breaks for you. Not.  ;D

HODL, if you must.

Sell, if you want to minimize your losses.

Never buy bitcoin with money you can't afford to lose.

I think that the price wll from now on go lower and lower if I have to be honest, the fact is that the bitcoin has a great future but first will crash a bit.

I do not think that it will take us to a lower amount, most likely it will stay here on this price and than later on rise again to a much higher price for a while..

Bitcoin will be stable at its price on the price range of 850 dollars to 890 dollars it will never up or if it will up it will be decrease again it will not on the top for long but in the month of june it will be keep increasing again it will going to be hit 1000 dollars again as the everyone wants.

820 dollar was okay but since we been over the 1000 dollar its not so good anymore, I see a bigger crash coming soon!

Bitcoin is down to $900 now, I don't see any more crashes. Maximum falling will make it $850, not less than that.

From now on, I'm predicting a good recovery and increase in bitcoin's value.

I also do not think that it will be lower than this price but we cannot say this, the fact is that everything can happen.

The price has aready risen to $1200 since then. I think it has more to rise.

sometimes it is a very good idea to take a quick glance at the time and date of what you are replying to. this topic is an old one and answering to a comment from 2 months ago!

and yeah it has so much more room to rise. $1200 which was reached a couple of days ago is just a start.

p.s. closing this topic down since there is no more point keeping it open (if anyone wanted me to open just shoot me a pm and say why!)
