Bitcoin Forum

What do you think bitcoin's price will be in one year, exactly? the price in 29/05/2018.

The price in this very moment at BitcoinAverage is 2247 USD. so, is it going up or down?

My own guess: today's price+70% = 3819 USD. Let the guesses begin. we'll see who's the closest in a year.

So difficult to guess, I never would have thought 12 months ago that the proce would be $22xx today.
I will join in any way for a bit of fun & say $3250

If anyone knew bitcoin would reach 2000$ he would be a billionaire by now. the question is who can see the future from this point forward :D

Bitcoin is really poised for more growth and once the scaling problem can be solved even if not totally then we can be sure that its value can experience leaps not yet seen in its history. I would guess that it can already be reaching 4K level by May of next year. I am sure that many analysts would agree with this simple assessment of mine. Bitcoin is the future happening today.

Bitcoin is always ready for better future growth, the problem must be in the bitcoin that can be solved even if the problem is not completely finished. Ensuring its value can experience a leap that has not been seen in history.

Does this really makes sense? We can just have lots of guesses here with random thoughts.


You are right. There is no accurate here and I think even at closest price we can't determined. The $2,000 price is not expected to happened to the time it was happened so all we need to do is to ride the hype.

2 years ago I read an article at Cointelegraph (I do not recommend them) about a "Cryptoanalyst" saying Bitcoin would reach ~800$ at 2016 which it did. One year later and the same guy said it would reach 3000$ by the end of 2017. I don't remember his name but I would stick to his prediction, especially if we manage to solve the scaling issue by the end of the year.

Just for fun, the accurate guess will be known in a year.

Since I'm joining bitcoin three years ago until now, bitcoin have increase with significant value and on May , bitcoin's value really made me out of my expectation.
IMO for it's difficult to see bitcoin less than $ 1750 since more country decide to legalize bitcoin for their transaction. On next year , may more country decide to legalize bitcoin as well so it's not impossible that bitcoin will reach today's price + 100% ++

Well, every people has their own version and goal for the bitcoin price. However, as per my calculation and intuition, I believe bitcoin price will go up to $3500 by that time.

However, the price increase actually depends on many factors and that may not happen so easily within a year. The market cap needs to be increased rapidly to reach that price tag and with the current transaction fees issue, people tend to invest in alts. So it may or may not happen. Lets just hope bitcoin reaches even better price tag by the end of the year.

My guess is that the bitcoin price in a year from my post will be approximately $6071. Let's see how it turns out.

I think this thread belongs more to "Speculation" section than here.
Well coming to topic. 1 year is very long period for Bitcoin market. There are several contingencies waiting for Bitcoin in this one year. Moreover, almost all factors affecting Bitcoin under this period are "variable" which implies no matter how detailed an estimation would be, it will simply be a wild guess :D
So my estimate is -
double increase in natural rate of BTC users + Impact of regulation in atleast one more nation + Increase in Speculation = $5500. Hufff!!

Realistic price is every price determined on the Bitcoin market based on demand or supply. Now we are in the period when the price was going up rapidly, we witnessed some minor correction and probably we will be for a while in the period of some stability. One year is very long period in digtal world, especialy for crytocurrencies but 6000 I find a bit exaggareted.

Every long term bitcoin prediction is nothing more than educated guess. All we can do is base our view on history of price movements and future expectations.
It is estimated that if this year's scaling upgrade will be relatively painless process then bitcoin's price at the end of this year could reach even $6000 (it's not exaggerated price at all).
2018 might be very interesting year, some countries declared that they might accept bitcoin as legal payment tender for example Russia.

It depends on bunch of things, what will create the demand - will there be a lot of bad or good news on the other hand.

I'd say that we might push it through like 3.5k$ because rising slower but steadily is better than if some pump occurs, but I am sure that we will see pumps to like 3k and above till the end of this year.

Predictions about Bitcoin, I like this. At present, the value of Bitcoin is well known, it is very high value, its speed development is quite fast. Only last year to this year its price has risen from around $ 600 to more than $ 2,000, so fast growth. I think BItcoin will not stop here, it will increase even more than it is now because more and more people are aware of Bitcoin and invest in it. Its price in 2018 will be more than $ 3,000, even reaching $ 4,000 or so

My educated guess is around $3800 as well. I know the demand for bitcoin will increase in 2018 so I'm guessing around that price. A lot of country will be joining by then so its good to see that the price rise will dramatically go to the moon in about a year time. Other factor I also considered if the scaling issue which we are going to see in August 1. It might have been mass adopted next week. Hah. Let's just see what happen 1 year from now and we will try to go back on this thread and see our predictions.

If SegWit does not pass, I think Bitcoin can still reach $ 6,000 next year, and surely higher that in case SegWit passes.

Actually this is a good idea, but it will be better if there is someone who will sponsor a winning price money on who will guess it right or the closest one, hahaha. My guess it will 4x the price today, so 8000USD = 1btc. More realistic and it is achievable by 1year period.  ;D

Just for fun, but also a bit for the record 750$  ;D (I hope to be wrong!)

The $ 6000 forecast is too much. Looking at the statistics the price will be about $ 3000 - $ 4000. I watched a probable film, I will show you.

For 2018 it's not something unrealistic. Some experts predict that this could even happen this year.

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/05/25/bitcoin-price-correction-record-high.html

According to the current market I can say that Bitcoin can face another Crush the chances of this is probably low. if Bitcoin Rises it will be around $3,500 . I see people are assuming that and will cross $5,000 soon or maybe $10,000 and so on which is pretty technically correct but we still don't know about the future.

I am very optimistic but thats my fault, but generally I have been really good at predicting bitcoin swings since mid 2013.

http://imgur.com/a/XMbN8

Nothing is for sure of course and predictions are just that, predictions.

$15,800 in 1300ish days form now.

For now I would say, buy some coins at halve or whole at the following retracements: $1700, $1200.

In the meantime, look at Ethereum, Litecoin and Ripple to accumulate cheap.

Being realistic I believe to see BTC pricing in one year about $3400-$3700, most probable $3500. Considering until end of 2017 BTC will be pricing $3000 that is my prediction for the date OP mentioned. Very possible to happen and increasing averagely without big events and news that could affect BTC price a lot.

It is hard to predict bitcoin price in a month, how much more in a year. I will speculate anyway. Bitcoin was doubling its price ever since I joined this forum. So I believe it will double its price again next  year. That means it is 4-5K range, maybe more if scaling problem is resolved within the period.

Define what realistic is?I have always been wondering when people say-predict the realistic price of this or that-first of alll,the predictions are something mostly based on the viewpoing ot every person and you shouldn't thinks in terms of what can be achieved in terms of a price or not-BTC can go 3 times it's price easily but where it can go to-that's another good question.I don't think most of the people know the answer to it

No one knows the exact price of bitcoins but if you see the current trend of bitcoins, one can easily say that bitcoin will be near or cross 5000$ by end of this year. Bitcoin price will continue to rise and we can see very high growth of bitcoins if we do not hear any bad news related to bitcoins. If things went smooth, believe me we shall see record price of bitcoins this year.

It is really hard to predict the price of bitcoin in about a year's time. Last year, its hard to predict that we are going to almost touch $3000 price. But for the sake of fun, I will just say that it can probably touch $6000 next year. I hope that I can get it right this time so that we are all going to be happy in about a year. ;D

I can see more than double in value in May 29, 2018  currently price is around 2270+, so I am thinking that price will be around $5540.  I believe that price will continue to rise since smart contract will give bitcoin a boost, packaged with Australia and Russia's bitcoin acceptance.  These news will give bitcoin a big boost in price.

Well a lot thing can happen in a year, but considering some more countries will legalize bitcoin i believe its possible to achieve 4000 dollars into one year if more countries does legalize bitcoin, if the same countries remains, well i would say 3000 dollars.

$10,000

$26,927.58

Bitcoin is unpredictable, so one cannot perfectly define the value of bitcoin in a year with big calculations. We can make approximations based on the things happening with bitcoin. Can assure that the price tends to grow as the bitcoin adoption all around is increasing. So in a years time it could go high as $50000 or might fall below $100.

At current trends we can expect a doubling in the next year so just under 5k$, there is of course the possibility of big pumps and dumps making bubbles and crashes but I think the highs and lows will center around 5k$ in a years time

Threads like this is useless, because Bitcoin adoption is still very small and the smallest event will have a impact on the price. You have seen what happened to the price, when exchanges gets hacked and how political decisions influence the price.

Who would have said a year ago that we would have seen $2700+ per bitcoin in 2017? One thing about Bitcoin is true, it is not predictable in any way. ^smile^

you must define what kind of prediciton do you want to have, a prediction for a stable value or just predicting the possible the peak

possible peak might be very high in one year, this will be more true if segwit is activated, assuming that the adoption will grow at the same rate as now, another 2x is expected in another year

we went 2x from 500-600 to 1200, we went again 2x now from 1200 to 2400, therefore i can expect a $4800 for the next peak

Personally I believe that bitcoin is going to go around $3500 in a year's time. Around your estimate but slightly lower. I just feel like that there is a lot of positive energy around cryptos at the moment and it's not going to stop any time soon. We might see a lot of panic and dumps before we see another slow bull market though. We might. We'll see what happens and it'll be interesting to dig up this thread in a year's time and see who's right :)

I want to say $3000 but then again we may see a huge dump as a result of some countries banning or not supporting bitcoin(such as China). Already their exchanges are cracking down on everything because the central banks demand them to do so and i wouldn't be surprised that chinese won't even be able to trade on p2p platforms like localbitcoins sometime in the future.

But it won't be lower than $2000, that'l all i know.

$3000 this year very likely. $5000 is a possibility. Waiting for the SegWit thing to be over before making my final decision. I stick with 3000 for now.

It will go up to around $5,000 and then crash. This will happen in 2017. By 5/29/18, I think we'll be in a down trend, around the same price where we are now. It will be slowing down, but we'll be heading downward. Maybe it bottoms out around $1500 or so.

In fact I believe that such a growth Bitcoin, which occurred literally in recent periods can be replaced by a fall of almost 2 times. Because the fact is that there are many who want to invest money in Bitcoin but for today at such a price it will be silly So if the price falls Here, then there will be quite real opportunities to make investments in Bitcoin.

If i really could predict the exact price of bitcoin i would have made a million by now,the realistic possibility is that if everything goes well and the if the bull run continues we could see the price crossing $3000 in a few months ,it all depends upon how much investments are coming into bitcoin.

The point is that you need to be probably a psychic so that you can give real predictions that showed real circumstances in the future of bitcoin prices. But it seems to me that if you trace the parallel between last year a little, you can notice some moments in each water and draw conclusions this year.

I expect a speculative bubble to $10K

Yes,even i think the price of bitcoin will be slightly over 3000$ and less than 5000$ ,as bitcoin is not adopted in all countries,by 2018 if more countries adopt to bitcoin then the price might even get more than 5000$ ,as this is just a wild guess because you can never estimate the maximum potential of bitcoin,so let's hope for the best!

Investment on bitcoin is growing big from the last 5 months with the price. We see high rate of adoption on bitcoin as well. Therefore, price run will not stop at anywhere. I think in this Christmas we may see 3000$ or even more.

Bwyond that will become the price of bitcoin maybe it will become more 3,000$ dollars this end of the month if bitcoin will become more in demand the the fulume itaelf will become more higher than today expect the unexpected thing anytime will happen of the lrice apeculation.

Of course it is possible at the moment because the speculators are just throwing their money into it willing to make huge profit. But I wouldn't be surprised if the price would start going down significantly to like 1800 dollars till the end of the year, because the price is way too high for this time. Also there were no real reason why would the price go up, no technical improvement in the code, nothing.

Boys Thank you very much for the forecasts And of course I'm very glad that I share your views on pricing today and in the future regarding Bitcoin. But I am also confident that the growth in the price of Bitcoin will not be so active. There will be a stop and a sharp jump down. Of course this fall will not affect the situation. Bitcoin will gain momentum again.

These are just suppositions. Month of the Month, proved to be an opportunity. The price almost doubled. Will you continue?

Based on what? I would expect rather the reverse situation linked to fear and uncertainty of scaling solution.
There will be major dump right before protocol changes will be introduced. Most people would opt to dump BTC in case something will go wrong with scaling upgrade.

But by that day we will see such prices for which we could only dream of earlier. Even the most famous 2013 brought less than we have today, so the price of Bitcoin can both rise and fall No matter what the demand for crypto currency, but simply because of manipulative action.

Reason can be made easily it all depends if somebody with a full pocket decides to flip his btc to fiat... Maybe there aren't some major improvements on coding side, but I agree with you that price might drop if we look at UASF activation on August 1st. If 2 chains split price will drop drastically until it gets sorted out.

On the other hand Russia is looking into btc, Japan has legalized it, more people are searching about it and are intersted in (mostly because of the profit but still).

People though that 10$ was high at first then that 50$ was high, you never know as all we can do is to  speculate the price...

I think by looking at the gambling trade and exchange rate the price of bitcoin now being up and down yet stable but I now see the ascending again, maybe for the price of bitcoin till the end of this year will reach about @ 3500, and could likely next year 2018 could reach $4000

Previous price action and Fibonacci extensions. $5000 within 6 months; $10K in one year. The time frame is drawn out because of politics.

My guess is it will go up to 4000$ in exactly 1 year, well its really hard to predict the value of btc in the future but if the demand of btc increase compared to those who want to sell then its possible to happen.

It may happen if demand is much more than the supply of BTC on market, it seems that there is a possibility of bitcoin price this year at level of $ 4000, but of course it is only a prediction because no one has accurate data about future of bitcoin

Your guess is as good as anybody's until the time comes that we really know what the exact price would be. A year from now, I am conservatively guessing that the price is at the range of $4,000 to $4,500. If bitcoin was able to double its price in just three months, then it is even more possible for it to double from today's price to twelve months from now.

$4000 seems realistic, but we cannot assure until a price increase same as the past happens creating a sudden growth​ from $2400 to price close to $3800. If this happens surely there will be a year end price increase, by which can experience $4000.

Seems huge but who knows actually im little bit surprise off for the priced reached today and im totally wondering on how much will be the priced per bitcoin if year 2018 will pass or more year to come on it since I am sure that we may witness another breaking record on its history, But for now lets enjoy this current event and continue our good ventures to earn more and gain more profit with bitcoins today.

I also think $4000 seems realistic. Let me guess, 2017 is the year the price will explode. Like every year the last 4 years.

I too concur with the $4000 prediction, I think we will be lucky at the moment to reach $3500 this year sustained.

Indeed 4000 dollars sounds huge, but with bitcoin anything is possible we already saw that in the past. One year in bitcoin world is a lot, next year we will be on a half for next halving, this year we saw many good things for bitcoin and there is 6 more months for other countries to accept bitcoins, this days I`m reading how South Korea is getting more involved I wonder why they been in a dark until now.
There is no realistic price in 1 year, that can be 3000 dollars or 5000 dollars, nobody can say that for sure, we need to wait and see, long term predictions about bitcoin is just that price will go up.

3800$ i actually hope that happens as it can legit solve millions of problems in my real life.
My prediction is maybe 4000$ as it has got a 120% or something increase till now , so expecting 100%
more in the remaining years isn't a bad thing , let's just hopenthe best happens to bitcoin

It is nice prediction ahead but it will make happens only when other country will implemented bitcoin to there currency or will accept bitcoin to use it from there country this could be the reason of increasing bitcoin price by time to time. Not because your lucky to reach that unless you are holding big coins in your wallet and waiting for the time to happened.

The price will really depends on which solution will be used to solve the scalability issues and maybe future news about btc getting accepted on some countries.

I predict $3500 per BTC till the end of the year.

The realistic price of bitcoin keeps on changing with time,i really could not think about the price crossing the two thousand dollar valuation this year but it just shook up everything and even made an impression that it would cross three thousand with this rally when we saw a correction,so anything is possible,we could see a correction and if not the price could cross five thousand too.

That's one hell of a prediction. Could happen only if the scaling issues are solved until then.

Bitcoin price will continue to increase and we can see a very high growth of bitcoins if we do not hear bad news related to bitcoins. If all goes smoothly, I believe we will see a record price of bitcoins this year. likely to be achieved with the high value of $4000 in akhiir this year, I hope next year reaching $5000

My biggest fear is another major exchange getting hacked. another Bitfinex would destroy the price and pause the rising of bitcoin for atleast a few more months.

yes 4000$ is for sure, if we study the nature of bitcoin and the previous rally of bitcoin we can come to the conclusion that if we hear another good news about bitcoin then the price of bitcoin is going to hit 5000 with in few months. as there are more possibility because after japan has accepted bitcoin as legal currency, there are more chances that other countries will also take step and will hopeful declare bitcoin as legal currency. so we can expect that the price of bitcoin can go more high and hing in next few months.

Of course it's nice to hear such predictions and read such posts, but I'm a bit skeptical. By the time I do not see it, I will not believe it. This year I'm really looking for I'm already giving 3000 dollars in gold Bitcoin. But what happens next I also do not presume to predict.

Why do you assume that?

I'm still sticking to an $89,000 price for each Bitcoin.

Timeframe is 2020/2025

Hodl !

Not only in bitcoin, in all crypto currencies, it is difficult to guess exact amount.
In realistic, i think we don't need to know exact figure of amount, we only need to guess and know the dump and pump.
If we have a profit in pump then it mean we are in a profit and in every second bitcoin price is changing.
Even we don't know may be in the other day bitcoin go back at $2000.   

in the prediction of bitcoin, will not be able to perfectly define the value of bitcoin in a year with a huge calculation. We can make an approach based on things that happen with bitcoin. Can guarantee that prices tend to grow as adoption bitcoin all around. So in a years time it could go as high as $50000 or may fall under $100. I hope it will happen

Only because the past tells us that even after what happened to Mtgox, Bitfinex still got hacked. if a major exchange gets hacked once again this time it will be billions in value, and that encourages hackers to try and gain access to their wallets.

Bad date format.  Should be ISO8601, so 2018-05-29.

And then what to do when constantly being afraid of hackers? Maybe they will not try to kill those users about which a small amount on the Bitcoin wallet. But that nemesis will be very sorry to lose the fact that so much collected.

It is open market which consist of  total buy and sell orders.Your opinion forces you to think  current bitcoin uptrend as "next HYIP bubble for dummies" which under real market conditions things dont turn around like that.Open the chart and please check the latest uptrend waves and  "corrections followed by  uptrends" on weekly chart. Such a rally has inevitably raised questions  whether there is a bubble in the digital currency.It is going to make new maximums as digital world currency. It will hit 10000$ less than 2 years.

 :'(

How much pessimism

---

Well, in my opinion it will be at $5500, that's the price that I think will be at the end of the year.

According to my experience in the previous year I have found that the price of bitcoin increased in a year more than 350% so in the coming year I am also expecting the same or around that. So according to that calculation I will not go more higher but it is expected that the price will go more than $7000.

More than 20K, unless another crypto takes over.

Currently bitcoin prices are in the range 2800-2900USD. For the end of this year prices can still rise even higher, I predict the price of bitcoin will be in the range of 4000USD up to 4500US. Maybe this is just a prediction, but I'm sure there will be an increase of at least about 50% of the current bitcoin price.

Your guess is possible. However I actually see bitcoin going up even further than just 70% in a year. We have seen how it has appreciated over 400% in just a single year. It's been a crazy ride and i sometimes forget that around this time last year was the halving. everything seems to be flying by. I'd say anywhere between $3000 and $5000 is realistic. It's not a dream anymore people!

I think that a realistic price for Bitcoin in a year is 4 thousand dollars. The price of Bitcoin has been rising so rapidly and there is no doubt about some price corrections coming in the near future. However, the demand of Bitcoin is rising at such a high level that the price is just going to continue to rise.

I'm not sure about that price 3819 USD for the next year. It's already so big though, i think it will be around $3000-+. If the price of bitcoin can reach $3000 in this year, its really possible to reach $3819 for the next year. But if not, $3000 will be the maximum price of bitcoin for next year.

It is difficult to know since there are so many uncertainties when it comes to the price, will segwit ever be activated? Because if it does I think the prediction is going to come short I hope that something similar to what happened to litecoin could happen in bitcoin if finally we get a solution to the high fees and speed of confirmation.

I guess after seeing the prices on the current statistics indicate the figure reached $2800 the possibility if the price stable, the price of the bitcoin bitcoin for next year could reach possibilities can $6000 I believe and believe prices will be stable bitcoin

The rate of increase is accelerating; we are going exponential.

As more and more countries make Bitcoin use easier within their borders, the number of countries doing so will also increase exponentially as nobody will want to be left behind as bitcoin's uses and importance is discovered.

We are at the equivalent of being the at the point in time the first people were offered the opportunity to buy the first shares of Microsoft.

As such, my guess is $11,750.00 on this date next year, assuming no economic crisis accelerates this even more.

I like the way you think!

If you find tha crypto that would replace Bitcoin please let me know.

Don’t get carried away, every time we have exponential growth it is impossible to maintain since that will need an exponential amount of money too, in my opinion we are going to be bearish for some time, I think the growth in crypto was too fast and when some big whales decide to cash out we are going to see a descend to more rational levels in the price of bitcoin and altcoins.

Today really it is necessary to expect very good prices for Bitcoin and already at the end of the year we will see an increase of perhaps even 2 times. The annual percentage growth Bitcoin can fluctuate and do not need to take the statistics of past years.

Why do people find it necessary to think that Bitcoin at some point might get replaced? It's total BS. Bitcoin and other crypto currencies can function alongside each other without any problems, plus we should not forget that altcoins don't serve a real purpose aside from the speculative aspect. Bitcoin is and remains gold, nothing can change that....

Even with the drop of bitcoin, I still believe that it price will continue to increase.  The fact that the news about bitcoin is pointing to upward trend, Australia, Bitcoin scalability and the not finished yet Japan adoption.  I think Bitcoin will still be at $5000 at least after a year.

Difficult to guess the exact amount we just predict a value on the basis of current condition of bitcoin in the market. Nobody knows what happens to bitcoin in next hour and you are asking for whole year, I guess price should be above 4k $ by the end of the year.

I absolutely agree with you, for the example is obvious at this very moment. According to the information of coinmarketcap.com, the market capitalization of ethereum is already very close to the bitcoin capitalization and possibly it would be exceeded in a few days. It is also presumed that ethereum is better and more advantageous than bitcoin, however that has not been an impediment for the bitcoin price to continue growing gradually along with the price of ethereum, and this same case could be applicable in future cryptos to come, as we have seen many other "new and revolutionary" altcoins arise out there and none of them has diminished the trust that people have in bitcoin.

Ethereum has only alternative for bitcoin that i think even ethereum is advanced people will be still stay in bitcoin.. because of development and more store are accepting it than ethereum.. Unless if ethereum will be accepted locally and accepted by many company online. that i think it will be hard for ethereum to follow the path of bitcoin.. Ethereum is for trading purposes that i think that is why the price of ethereum is growing its because of the investment traders, unlike bitcoin that many company and store are invest in bitcoin for their business.

People tend to put a lot focus on the market caps of certain altcoins, and that they might surpass Bitcoin at some point. But the reality is that Bitcoin by market cap is already surpassed. It just shows how insignificant market caps are -- market caps hold zero value. Even the flashy features that altcoins have as "advantage" over Bitcoin don't say anything. What matters is the level of actual usage that the coins experience. Till this day, nothing comes even close to Bitcoin in that aspect.

Well a lot thing can happen in a year, but considering some more countries will legalize bitcoin i believe its possible to achieve 4000 dollars into one year if more countries does legalize bitcoin, if the same countries remains, well i would say 3000 dollars.

Thats the main issue dude for the price increase. More and more governtment and corporations are buying and investing in btc with that kind of prices. So there is no doubt that the price could reach 3500k in my own speculations. The price went low for the mean time so i guess many have tried to buy it or even planninv to buy.

No one knows the exact price of bitcoins but if you see the current trend of bitcoins, one can easily say that bitcoin will be near or cross 5000$ by end of this year. Bitcoin price will continue to rise and we can see very high growth of bitcoins if we do not hear any bad news related to bitcoins. If things went smooth, believe me we shall see record price of bitcoins this year.

the bad part of the climb of the bitcoin inn this months its the peopleos are only buying bitcoin because the other has bought too, if a good correction wasnt arrive a bubble could vbe formed.

Isn't it the same with altcoins? People are buying ETH because of rumors that it could be accepted in Russia. People were buying LTC because segwit was activated and they knew the price would go up. It's always speculation, because cryptos don't have much real use yet.
About corrections, BTC is correcting every week, but these are small ones caused by traders. Holders are still holding and demand is obviously rising. I was thinking $3000 by the end of the year and it went up faster than expected.  Now I'm thinking $4000 in 2018 is very much possible.

Bitcoin is really poised for more growth and once the scaling problem can be solved even if not totally then we can be sure that its value can experience leaps not yet seen in its history. I would guess that it can already be reaching 4K level by May of next year. I am sure that many analysts would agree with this simple assessment of mine. Bitcoin is the future happening today.

We don't want this to turn into a bubble, so $ 5000 is realistic for me next year.

My own guess is 4387 USD for the next year. Depending on if there are no issues could well be near $7325 a coin, so I will assume the higher end as a best case and 4387 as the normal case for my prediction on that day.

That would be summer of next year and summer is always a high point in pricing, that puts the price at around $3900 at this moment in a year.  After a few months, or as a year average, the price for the coming year will sit at around $3200.  The highs will be just over $4000 and the lows at around $3000.

There is not much going on next year for Bitcoin itself and that should keep the daily changes under $100.  There are many other coins that have big plans next year and that always boosts Bitcoin with a volume increase. 

Face it, for most people, to buy another alt coin, they start with FIAT to Bitcoin and then forward, Bitcoin benefits from most new coins.
 

People think of that because they want to be the early investors of this hypothetical coin that usurps bitcoin place, the problem is that is going to be very difficult to do, and second most of them will not have the guts to invest in something they do not know if it is going to succeed or not, and for those kind of people it is useless to even think about that possibility.

I think that's too much for a year. I guess from $2,800 by next year that would be $4,000 to $4,500. That will be a realistic guessing though. But one thing is for sure, bitcoin will not stabilize. I think nobody wants a stable price though.

Let's say there's a big plan for next year of alt coins but I don't think no other coin can surpass what just bitcoin did.
Bitcoin is bitcoin and it is the future. For me, bitcoin price after a year would be roughly $4,000 and that the idealistic thing.
Bitcoin for sure will have pumps and dumps every now and then and that's normal though. I would rather see that than having steady price. No ups and down. That would be boring.  :D

I agree with your price prediction but I think a lot of people want a stable price actually. I for one would like some stability and moderate rises as it leads to less destabilizing crashes.

It looks like many are guessing that the price of bitcoin will good at $3k mark before this year ends. I also want to make a guess that the price of bitcoin will be good at $3,500. I'm not that good in speculation but base on what I can see I will go with the crowd and majority of the people here that speculates that way.

A realistic and accurate price prediction for the year is simply impossible. Based on the ongoing scenario I hope to the minimum we will reach around $3000 - $3500 by the end of the year. Same time in between the price falls has generated a panic among the users regarding the price.

Yes the price will not be too far from the current price. I am more optimistic if the price is in the range 3500USD up to 4000USD. This looks realistic to see the current price developments. I compared the increase in bitcoin prices that could reach 100% in the past few months, so this is not impossible. Everything can happen to bitcoin.

A year from today? $4125. Why? That would be slower growth then we're at right now and I don't see a huge dump coming so it would only make sense. Mainstream adoption is coming. Hope you've bought enough bitcoins to have a happy life in 2020.

I think i cant say anything in this moment because there are many instability with the protocol consensus of bitcoin, the problem of china with btc and i will wait for august 1st to get a new perspective.

I can't think about it because the price of daily-increasing bitcoin sometimes price declines so instability makes the growth of the movement of the bitcoin. we will see the end of inflexible pieces until the end of this year

in my opinion just see the movement of the growth value of bitcoin has reached $2600, my estimate might be after price statistics right into in a year to reach $7000 it if it does happen the movement decreases prices for bitcoin next year

I'd like to be optimistic for what I've seen so far this year.

I suspect in April 2018 the price should be around 5000-6000 if not more.

It can also go down depending on forks, SegWit, etc... But I rather keep positive!

The price of bitcoin could go down when the fork takes place as big investors might pull their funds and might wait till everything is over and it is a really crucial time for traders to see how these sort of things will play out in the coming weeks.I am sure if there is any correction ,it will recover with time.

Well this is very possible to happen as their will be a split in the network. But also there will be chance that people will not pull their funds for they know this will happen. And they will be dependent to those weak holders and after seeing the price of bitcoin drop again that will be the start of their move by buying and it could up again maybe at $4000.

All I know about this splitting on the network is, those rumor makers just threatening the minds of our mates and also us who were depending on bitcoins to be our online income. I think holders will not pull out their funds, because if you really are a strong person who always value investment to be firm and no doubts, no matter what happens; blockchain network administrators are doing their job to make it safe for all of us. I don't believe that they will be just letting it go and for so many years of being expert on their job as best IT support; I know they already have a good solutions to that.

Those news that are giving fears in the heart of holders are making a big impact and that's a fact. I think it should go this way, if you are a strong person and you value investment you will probably diversify into a lot of investments and will not just stay on a single investment. But with the hardwork of those core developers for sure they want to make bitcoin always on the top.
