Can bitcoin fall 2000$ before 2018?
 
I am logical . possible Because it can not control the dump of bitcoin if it comes
But by look at the Most comments bitcointalk.org . No

 nobody knows what can happen in a few months or even weeks from now, it is almost impossible to predict what can happen with the price of something, and less with something so volatile as bitcoin, it is impossible to know that mate.
But based on what are you saying that the price is going to dump that much? i dont know if it is possible, just imagine that the price is upto $6000 at the moment, and $2000 is more than 60% less than ATM price

there will be many victims who have been destroyed in their investments if this speculation becomes real. because the fact that a lot of buy bitcoin in this month, and certainly will be a lot of trapped, I'm not expecting this

Bitcoin can fall to 0 before 2018 for all we know. It's just highly unlikely. It's like how Bitcoin rising to 100,000 before 2018 is unlikely as well. Essentially, no one can predict what will happen. Bitcoin has seemingly defied odds that many have put on it. For now, however, we do know that we are in a bubble of sorts. There is a rise in btc price due to the upcoming fork. People will be dumping bitcoin gold very quickly. After that rise, there will be a decent correction period.

That would really be impossible. Bitcoin's market value is continously increasing at this moment and getting more expensive. Backdrops are still expected but not as big as you've mentioned. The hardest dump that Bitcoin suffered, happened recently and it is only down by 1200$ , so there'll be nothing that will make the value of Bitcoin from 6000 down to 2000 in just 2 months considering the next fork which is another factor for the pump especially if it will be successful.

Really funny that every time bitcoin reaches new ATH, FUD's monger came out and spreading those scenario that bitcoin will crash. It bitcoin will be dump and can't be control, then sell your coins, its that simple. Get out of the market and then go somewhere like ETH or other altcoins.

But to be honest, there is a chance that bitcoin can go down or bitcoin can go up. No one really knows because the market that we are in is based on speculations. News whether negative or positive affect the price. If there is case that will really affect the market and pull the price to $2000 then we can't do anything about it. However, I'm sure that a lot of investors who have trusted bitcoin will buy huge amount of bitcoin if the price goes to $2000, so in no time bitcoin will be going up again and fully recovered down the line. On the other hands, bitcoin can even go as high as $10000, so its your choice. :D

Even if, this could be one of those - one segment, nation only markets bubble we had in history.
And panic hit bitcoin holders, making everybody try to sell overnight. It should overload the blockchain, if, only if, the transactions of usd - btc be p2p.
I don't think in exchange wallets you need btc address to receive your USD... So downfall to $2000 range I guess still possible?
But for that, would need some hard move on the tech from Japan or USA. what we can't foresee anything close.

All could happen to bitcoin, but seeing how bitcoin develops now I see an increased chance of bitcoin prices. even at least bitcoin prices will survive as it is today. if you can analyze then bitcoin has reached new record, we all just see bitcoin price reach 6.000USD and further speculation is bitcoin price will reach 7.000USD until 8.000USD by the end of this year. personally I feel fortunate enough to have saved some bitcoin before, for those of you who are still taking a chance then buy bitcoin does not hurt, try this opportunity because the increase will continue to happen and the bitcoin price reduction is very unlikely to happen.

Based on the history of Bitcoin, anything is possible as there had been dramatic dips in the past. But one thing you should consider is the fact that Bitcoin has the mechanism to easily recover after a big dip. That is why many people are just holding on to their Bitcoin because they already learned how Bitcoin is moving. There would always be big and small hindrances but Bitcoin can always find the ways to surge and grow...to the moon as they say.

Stop believing all the negative comments you may have heard of. There have been famous people who made a good career in criticizing Bitcoin and making some gloomy scenarios where Bitcoin can die and can be banned all over the world...those are just naysayers who got nothing to do and so they delve on Bitcoin and made disparaging comments even if they don't fully grasp all the things behind Bitcoin.

The future belongs to Bitcoin and you and me can have a part of that future! Never let anyone snatch your share of the coming beautiful world where more power is getting into the hands of the people.

That is not possible because for every value fall down of bitcoin lets say a difference of $500 it will be an opportunity of the other bitcoin enthusiast to buy bitcoin immediately because they could save $500 too in their investment how much more to be save if the difference is $1000 from todays value? Also please consider that many new countries now are adopting bitcoin meaning many new investors are pouring in therefore i will be optimistic that by next year $10,000 is my mark.

I don't think it will drop even for just  $1000.Bitcoin was doing good this days , I actually foresee that it will continue to rise since holiday is coming and many people want to buy bitcoin but well if what you are saying is true then I am gonna use that opportunity to buy more bitcoins !

$2000 would be a quite a jump, but yes I was also expecting a drop but not this much. I am expecting the segwit2x frok to cause some waves in the bitcoin market, probably a drop to $4000s is more realistic.

We dont know if the price of bitcoin decrease at 2000 dollars but I hope it will not decrease. Because as of now the price of bitcoin is 5900 dollars plus and continue to increase so we can make a lot of profit in the future. More bitcoin that you have more money to come. But if the price of bitcoin decrease Its better to buy mote bitcoin with cheap price and hold it and wait the price to increase to make more profit.

Bitcoin price seems on a good rally these days, rise over $6000 before bitcoin gold hard fork.
What will happen before the end of year? Nobody knows for sure, but drop to $2000 before end of the year? Really doubt it.
Bitcoin may get corrected after reach ATH, but it may not fall below $4000 I guess,  bitcoin price could be steady at $6000 until the end of the year, or at least over $5000.

As in the above statement everything is happening good with bitcoin, in terms of growth as well in terms of people accepting bitcoin for different needs as well the marketplace increases. If the same continues, there won't be any more price drop to such a low value as $2000. Even if that happens, people will invest big, because most has benefited from the same.

Bitcoin price falling back to 2000$ is just logical like you said OP since price upward movement has been going on for a prolonged period of time and it needs to go back where it once was in order for investors to know it's real value in the current time if hype is gone. Price movements also are unpredictable which made me think that there is a possibility that by the end of this year, it might or might not sit at 2000$ price.

everything can be happen,dropping $2000 in our current price which mean we'll see $4000.right ?
if we are looking at our current progress i think it is possible to see something like that,
a lot of people hyping it lately due to chain split and another airdrop.
to be honest i never expecting we are hitting this level this fast,
because of a problem that we encountered lately.
we're breaking $6000 level and if it keep moving upward,we should see another pullback soon.
and i believe it will be big,because the push=pressure.

I think it's not possible if they throw it away until bitcoin prices drop to $ 2000 because now the average trader already knows it's just an investor game that makes a person panic. If they do the dump it will only make them lose because they will raise the price again, but what if other investors are just waiting to buy and not sell so in my opinion it will not happen until the end of this year.

It can be possible happen that bitcoin can drop $2000 if some countries banning bitcoin that will be a problem the price of bitcoin will start drop and add some people panic selling and that will the price huge dump.

Yup! it will never gonna be smaller that the $4000 mark value in the end of this year because we already reach a certain All time high amount then we can set a good safe zone for bitcoin to not go under that cap, and yup! more investors right now are waiting to buy bitcoin right now when the price plummets in the impending Hard Fork so nothing to worry about in my part.

I really didn't get your logic . In the period of china ICO ban bitcoin dropped but regain its position within two weeks. And many people saying that people will dump bitcoin after they get bitcoin gold. But I think they will dump bitcoin gold and buy bitcoin as there is next fork segwit2x is scheduled.

This is the correct answer but seeing as we are on a speculation thread I will say Bitcoin will hit a high of 9500 this year but will finish the year at 7500. Thus op gets his 2000 drop.

What is logical about saying that it can fall to $2000 before the end of 2017? Bitcoin is at an all time high and there are no signs that it will slow down at the moment.

It is therefore more logical to say that it is on its way to $10,000 than to say that it will fall back to $2000. So if you missed the train, sorry.

I strongly disagree, market gurus and analysts are predicting it would reach $6500 by April 2018 and $10,000 soon. you may love to have a look here https://www.bitcoinmarketinsider.com/physicists-model-indicates-bitcoin-price-of-6358-in-early-2018/

Bitcoin is a market that no one can anticipate. There are a lot of people who buy bitcoin at a very cheap price and do not sell when it's at peak and expect it to be higher than current prices. It is extremely unpredictable because its market is small so one group will use a large amount of money that can adjust its market at some time when your psychological instability will lead to sell cut losses. causing market disorder. But with your opinion last year bitcoin can reduce $ 2000 I do not think so I think it will adjust the price range 5600-5800 to the end of the year rather than reduce as deep as you think.

Bitcoin price indeed will get decreased but I think it's a small possibility if bitcoin price before the end of the year until will dropping to $2000, that's too low I guess. I think as low as it will not reach that number again, and I'm sure it will be stay away from that number.

It can happen, and most of us here are also waiting for a crash to happen so that I'd be able to stash up again for another bullish period. Already have made a decent profit for the past 2 months but I'd still want to get some cheap tickets for my retirement fund. For the last part of the year, there needs to be a serious negative news to cause another uncertainty in the markets, just like China. I doubt major banks' words would matter by then, and it's just up to the big countries to have negative comments toward bitcoin to cause another panic.

In the world of cryptocurrency and BTC everything is possible,who could predicted at the beginning of this year or just exactly one year ago that today price of one BTC would be over 6000$.Some dreamed about that,but it seemed pretty unrealistic at that time.Even today we see many speculation and prediction for next 6 months or year period,20k by the end of next year-why not?

Can BTC drop to 2000$ this year or in future?Chances for that always exists,because the market can move in both directions up or down.What should happen to such a scenario become reality it is a difficult question,but would have to be something really bad.On the other hand it would be a great opportunity for some to buy cheap BTC.

I have learned not to underestimate human fear and stupidity, so everything is possible, also there are many smart people who will take this in their advantage. Knowing all this you can predict BTC future. It will be very  and profitable cow  ;D for many. You can watch charts and do whatever analyzes you can but they wont help you, this is totally unpredictable for a small man, but on long run we will go beyond 10k. Whales lead this game, face it.

in my opinion bitcoin will stay in the top of $4000 not $2000 cause its a hardfall for bitcoin in 2018 . If that time happen it will made panic situation in the market which more buyer and expecting for the large profit in the future i have doubts that there's a possibility but it will not go back to its first value. Or that prediction will not happen. Maybe it will fluctuate in a moment then it will continue to climb as the volatility of bitcoin.

He'll no, it won't ever fall to such low figures ever, the last time it feel was due to Chinese mess, but it won't happen ever again it shall only keep on rising, like I believe it's resistance level has reached 5800$ and it's finding good support there, I feel 7k suddenly has become a realistic figure now, only a matter of few days before we come to know about it.

Nope I don’t think so and no indication as of now, no FUD’s and rumors for propaganda around. At 4900$ then China banning and Jamie Dimon attacks has put only at 2800$ dip. What more now that no black propaganda and the price is 5900$ - 6100$ per bitcoin. That’s merely impossible for me but I can be wrong but I still hope I’m right. Because to go beyond the lowest to 2000$ is not a good sign to bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole. So don’t ask for it, it might affect us all.

Any possibility can happen to bitcoin. But when looking at the current situation and conditions then I think bitcoin will not experience a drastic price drop as expected. Currently the bitcoin price is stable and instead tends to show an improvement graph. So there is to the current bitcoin is a chance to experience an increase in price.

Yes, we don't have any specific events further to cause such drop in value. Price at present is moving with good resistance level and also it reached high crossing several barriers. Even though we say that it won't fall, none has the mind to assure the same. The market is entirely unpredictable and things change in no time. We the users need to trust and have hope that it won't go low.

I hope it does drop.  I will buy a truckload.  :)

With hard fork comming probably on the 25th of october i see the BTC price falling but i dont think it can fall very low to $2000 that will be too low. well anything is possible but to me i think the lowest the BTC can fall to is around $4000. I think this is logical and with the look of things i dont think it can fall below that falling below that will be too drastic and i believe BTC will probably picked up and reach $6000 by the first quarter of 2018

well if ever it drops to that level maybe we need to think wiser with our moves bitcoin got influenced by major news which is happening around, if ever fall down happen there's a possibility that it was a big issue because falling to that level is already a huge downfall considering that there's already lots of
people who invest with bitcoin.

You suprised me with the title, i thought you have fact why Bitcoin will drop to 2000$ at the end of this year but upon reading your post you are curious too. In my opinion it will not drop in that price it is very low, if Bitcoin price will drop maybe less 1000$ to its highest price. That is why Bitcoin is one of the best because it will drop for few amount then it will go high again higher than the last maximum price. I am sure that it will not go below 4000$ at the end of this year, it might go 6000$+.

If human population drops by 3 billion before 2018, Bitcoin will drop to $2000 before 2018.

At this point, anything is possible. But as said, it is highly unlikely for it to happen. Defying odds is an appropriate term because most have not expected the price to be where it is right now. It is normal for their to be price correction because of the rise we are experiencing but it does not necessarily mean that it will fall to $2000 before the end of the year. Bitcoin has remained to be strong throughout the forks and FUDs it has experienced. Most of the users are confident that it will even rise by the end of 2017.

Actually, many people would be so happy if at the end of the year we would have Bitcoin at the $2,000 level. Why? Of course because it would then be a very good opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a cheaper level than it is now which is standing at $6,000 more or less. As those experts in Bitcoin can be saying: in every dip there is an opportunity to buy cheap.

The question is: would it really drop as low as that and if there would be a miracle that it would then how long will it last when there are so many people waiting to buy Bitcoin cheap? It would be a big fiesta for the market. Bitcoin is already at the level where many people looked at the price to be expensive so any chance for a bargain can be taken by the market with immense joy.

Anyway, I am sure it would never happen not unless a major dramatic turn of events would take place like maybe the government of USA declaring the trading of Bitcoin to be illegal and ordering all Bitcoin exchanges to get out of the country ASAP. Or maybe the same situation happening in Japan.

I don't bitcoin can drop $2000 before the end of this year, its possible to drop but not that low because the price now almost reach $6200 and that's far behind $2000, Though bitcoin value fluctauates from time to time I am positive that it will not crash too much the least value it could have before the year for is $5000. Anyway no one can tell what's gonna happen next let's just sit back and watch.

That’s not logical looks like, maybe exaggerated mindset is we’re it should be. Too much negativity on a dip is not good to oneself or maybe for self-interest for others who want to bought bitcoin on 2000$ below. That is logical. It will not happen even an attack that relentlessly from bankers and media a 3000$ dip is the limit I think.

I don't this will happen actually what we expect is very contradicting to what you are saying , I think by the end of the year bitcoin will continue to rise since many people have more money they have so much to invest and I think they will choose bitcoin for their investment

Will be a ruin for all who buy this month and also invest in it, but if this speculation becomes real it will be very profitable for everyone who does not have and will buy, when bitcoin prices go down. I feel 2018 will not change much, maybe bitcoin can go up or down to 1 or 2 percent.

As much as I love high bitcoin prices, I expect us to probably go lower in the short term. Then again, I never expected we would be this high so fast. Its a marathon not a sprint for me though.

That would appear to be impossible, in my opinion. Seeing the continuous increase of its market value is already a proof that it will be more expensive before this year end. Also, there's a hardfork that and if it will succeed, the value of Bitcoin will again go skyrocket just like what happened in the recent fork last August.

Bitcoin price fluctuates by more than 2 percent per day usually. Today we are already down by 5.5%

I highly doubt that say the price on 1st of Jan 2018 is $4500 the min or max price on 31st Dec 2018 would be either $4400 or $4600.
I'd bet against it being in that range for sure.

The last time I check bitcoin value reach $6200 but not its going down again. I'm afraid that bitcoin can drop again like what happen in the first hard fork seeing how it suddenly decreases from time to time I'd like to believe that bitcoin can crash anytime and reach $2000 again. I just pray and hope that the fork will not make any bad effect in bitcoin value

No, I am not expecting this. $2000 is just too low to hit before the year ends. I am even expecting bitcoin to rise after the fork. It will probably reach up to $7000 this year! This kind of thread makes people panic and dump bitcoins.We should not make more threads like this. This is ridiculous.

Just like everyone here, I can't really see bitcoin prices falling down to $2000 or even $3000 because its gonna be too low that everyone will likely buy a lot of bitcoins with that price. So I doubt it can go lower even for 1 days. So its not only ridiculous but seems illogical as well. See the price today, its almost $5600 from as high as $6000. But I'm positive that after everything has settled down with his Bitcoin Gold situation, the price of bitcoin will go up again in no time and investors putting solid cash in the ecosystem once more.

I think you took far away this time, with this question because after the fork price may drop and come between $4,500 to $5,000 range and it drop further before Swegit2x but it would be really very rare that it touches $2,000. If we assume bad news and rumors or more ICO bans then also it may drop up to $3,500 because people are now less affected such news. But one should never forget that anything is possible in crypto, so Bitcoin touching $2,000 by the end of the year have 1% chance only that also if everything goes against Bitcoin.

For me actually is impossible can drop until 2,000 $. But no one knows what will be happen in the future.
I hope bitcoin can reach until 7,000 before end of this year.

The least i can think of is $4,000 for Bitcoin to reach by the end of the year, and that also is not what i think will happen, but it is just that if it drops down, it would not go below that mark. The price is likely drop to some extent after the fork because there are a lot of people who have bought Bitcoin for the only purpose of getting BitcoinGold out of them, and many of them may sell them back after the fork when they get their BitcoinGold, and it may cause a slight drop in the price, but after that, it should start working normal.

To$ 2000 probably will not fall!

We cant be too sure, anything can happened, this year nobody can predict China going to banned ICO and regulate exchanger that caused huge fall down, but 2k is a very far drop, I dont think it will be possible unless there are major issue regarding to bitcoin

I don't think it will fall that low by the end of 2017, more chances are that it might rise a little more than what it is right now with another forking round the corner.

If look bitcoin history price. It seems at end of every year, bitcoin has increased. So, it's very impossible bitcoin falls to $2K. I actually feel bitcoin can pass over $7K for end this year.

If China bitcoin bann did not succeed to pull Bitcoin below 2500$, nothing will can pull it below this level.

You act like BG has even a slight form of significance when it comes to Bitcoin, which isn't the case at all. It's mind boggling how people here just randomly post whatever gibberish they come up with. Segwit2x is the one that may put this market under a heavy load of pressure, not something so insignificant as the insanely premined BG fork. Serious investors just laugh their a.. off when looking at BG, because they understand that it's nothing more than the next shit coin that is only there to generate the entities behind BG instant profits.

Yes no one can sure so much about the price of bitcoin, and i think is also a little early to give a good prediction about bitcoin,. but according to some expert trader, bitcoin price will continue increasing tell the end of 2017 and hope at at end of 2017 or in very beginning of 2018 the price of bitcoin will be trading above 8000$. So i think it is still good time to invest money in bitcoin and get some good position, because bitcoin is in fact trading in a low price in current days.

I don't see any reason why would Bitcoin fall to $2000 before 2018. The pricing has been good since the dip last September. The demand keeps getting higher and higher and that ultimately will affect the pricing. Can you give any reason why would bitcoin fall by 2018? Or any specific news regarding that matter?

Right now there is no specific crash for such a downfall in value. Still the bitcoin market is completely unpredictable and anything could happen in unexpected time period. Based on speculation from people around the forum $7000 seems achievable before the year end.

Everything could happen but I don't think so, that's quite too low to happen compared to the current price. Also we're expecting the price to goes up on holiday season so $2k is nearly impossible to see before 2018. Maybe the opposite of what you've said will happen, between $6500 - $10k.

This figure is very impossible to happen because other than incoming segwit2x there is no more major reasons that bitcoin value will fall back. But if your speculation will ever happen the $2000 value decline is very huge because most of the people will going to hoard now in which they have already learned from the pass experiences that they panic and sell their bitcoin easily. I expect that if there is really decrease of the value it will just limited to $5000 only and we have only 2 months left before 2018.

Nobody can say what exactly could happen to Bitcoin before end of 2018 is either the value will decline or grow stronger. But what am optimistic about is that even though Bitcoin will move on a decline trend it will not to be to the turn of  $2000 in value. Bitcoin is going to increase in value because before end of 2018 the demand for Bitcoin will keep increasing higher than the supply and that will increase the market value of Bitcoin.

It's difficult to happen logically but yes everything can happen since bitcoin is unlike other currency or investation , right ?
For me personally, I have faith on bitcoin so I think it won't reach $ 2000 ( Even if it's happen, my friend really want to invest bitcoin although he was pessimistic before )

We may never what might actually happens because the price of the bitcoin will depend upon it's performance in the market trend but if this actually happen then you can expect a lot of people will be at its lost because usually most people buy bitcoins nearing the in the end of the month. In the meantime we should just wait and see because we cannot control the increase/decrease of bitcoin price.

Due to the high price of bitcoin within few months, saying what will become of bitcoin cannot be specified with a specific price. And you saying before the end of the year hmm, let us not wish for that, cause if that happens, people who invested hugely will be in a point of complete loss. And we who where there with bitcoin when it was at that price will not find it likely too.

I'm sure we will not see $2000 again in this year, this year's bitcoin has a lot of happenings and is a new history on bitcoin. So I'm sure the bitcoin price will continue to strengthen at $5000++ until the end of the year.

would it really drop as low as that and if there would be a miracle that it would then how long will it last when there are so many people waiting to buy Bitcoin cheap? It would be a big fiesta for the market. Actually, many people would be so happy if at the end of the year we would have Bitcoin at the $2,000 level. Why? Of course because it would then be a very good opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a cheaper level than it is now which is standing at $6,000 more or less.

My prediction will be between 4000 to 5000 range by end of this year.

It is difficult to predict how much value bitcoin will drop as soon as 2018 hits but as of the moment it is in good shape. Its value fluctuates every once in a while  and that's inevitable however I don't think it will drop that much. $6000 to $2000 is quite big and that will affect the market negatively if in case it happens. 2018 is just 2 months away and I strongly believe that a huge backdrops won't occur that quickly, for it will create nothing but panic.

Possibly. Remember that it's btc we're talking about so when it comes to its price everything is possible. From a whopping $6K it can become worthless. No one can really say and only those whales can also do something with the price. If they decided to suddenly drop all at once it can cause drastic crash to btc. Seeing how we are sitting between $5.5K to $6K, a 2K drop is unlikely to happen. I don't see btc going that low any moment.

Drop but why the price has had a really good year it was always rising and never fell falling back to 2000 would be a mistake by all the people who are holding bitcoin even if it falls what's wrong it's better if you rebuy more you can make more profit i will surely try to buy more bitcoin and hope the price rises if any such situation occurs

It would take quite a major shock to the system for bitcoin to fall that far, such as a failure in its service or a global statement against bitcoin, other than that I can't see it happening.

Bitcoin could drop under 2000$ if a lot of hashpower is going to Segwit2X and bitcoin blocks are not mined anymore in an acceptable time
  Then during weeks, bitcoin would become unusable and it would crash...

No frigging way.

Short term correction. That's all it is.

I made a bet that Bitcoin is going to go up:

https://stockbet.com/#/BullBear/round/17971

Take me on.

I believe BTC is a volatile currency, therefore we can end this year in $1000 or $10000. It will always depend on the volumes of the dumps and pumps that it suffers throughout the days, and the number of supporters it gains or loses in the mean time. It also depends on the way miners accept and do transactions, if they start increasing without any reason their transfer fees, you can see a drop in the value of BTC, for example.

I don't think it will ever fall below 2000$ again... Only if there is some very severe security issue or big hack...

This same discussion has been held at every new ATH... even when it reached 200$ people were like omg this bubble gonna burst...


Only thing it brought it down hard was the MtGox hack, other than that only normal day for btc ;)

MtGox pumped the price to insane levels back then, and it corrected the market back to where it started. In other words, the market was even again. :D

Overall, I am quite surprised that the market not only managed to reach such levels, but also maintain them for quite a long period of time (in crypto terms). It definitely hints towards more willingness from people to hodl longer.

Back in the days basically every higher level was barely maintainable ~ the market was very insecure, there was no real confidence when it comes to the majority of the people, China being a problem, and the list goes on.

It's safe to say that to a certain extent, the market and the people being part of it have definitely matured.

Bitcoin may be a little bit overpriced but I do not think by that much, many people say we are in a bubble but this is nothing like what happened in the past, the growth has been constant and this shows a slow but constant growing interest on bitcoin that is not going to disappear overnight.

We're Ok about MtGox thing in the past, what about BTC-e prohibition by FBI? Look what happened after that, nothing! Cause Bitcoin is getting stronger and the followers increased a lot, soon all the world will be back of this, we'll see...

Nothing drastically of the kind is to happen with bitcoin. It is the extreme of speculation in bitcoin history. I think prediction must be based on demonstration and must near about to realistic approach because nothing of the kind has happened in bitcoin history. It is right that bitcoin price will come down by the upcoming fork of bitcoin gold but not upto $2000 ever. I predict that the value will not come down from $5000 and bitcoin will also recover this difference soon.

Of course it could fall to $2000 but I'm hoping it will hold at least at $5000 level before the fork and will reach $6000-$7000 after the fork and before 2018. I'm optimistic about all crypro-currencies, except s*its like BTG.

I´d say if we have some news like the chine ban that scares the new money that came in this year, yes. We can even see BTC below 3K. If no such news arrive it will dip after the november fork, but probably not 2k.  but lets see how it plays out.

Those comments came from community are just expected which is "NO". We might possibly get back to those ranges knowing that price could crash anytime but this thing would really depend if the community would decide to dump big part of their bitcoin holdings which would definitely affect the price of bitcoin but seeing on support of it.Then this thing will not surely happen since there is already a good strong support on the price.

This is another fork after the fork of last october 25?
I just saw that november 16 is another fork from  news posted from forbes blog..
And i think if there are holders of bitcoin right now already claim there bitcoin gold they will not sell their bitcoin and wait for another fork before they sell their bitcoin.. but we seen other hodlers are sold their bitcoin that is why the price of bitcoin was drop a bit..

I hope it will not happen that the price of bitcoin back at 2000 dollars before end of this year. But if that happen for sure it will increase again because we buy more bitcoin and bitcoin will recover again . But as of now the pruce of bitcoin continhe to increase and if you want to invest you can invest your extra money because I believe in  my own prediction the price becone 7k upto 8k dollars.

Yes, I'm waiting for that, so many people including myself are waiting for that moment to buy bitcoin at the cheaper price.
There's always possibility for the price to skyrocket or even nothing, but one thing is sure when the price is going down there will be people buying at the lowest price, we have already passed this when the price was 1000 dollars crashed down into the 200 dollars.

Everything can happens and no one knows what will really happen exactly on the comming months. But anything is possible but for me, I don’t think so that bitcoin price will fall down to $2000 before 2018, if it will then it is the perferct time to buy btc again. It is already high now, it may decrease in a moment but not hard as that.

No way! It won't lead that far. There are backdrops on its market value just because the day of segwit2x is getting closer and with that, it will surely increase after the fork. Maybr it will only fall down to 5000$ and nothing less. 2000$ is way far from its current value and it won't fall that much in just a short period of time, specifically 2 months.

flash crash from one exchanger probably but global market movement maybe very difficult

A fall to $2000 will very much disrupt the market as we know it. By the looks of things its unlikely to fall that much. Recently, we just broke past $6000 which is a good sign and a $5500 correction seems fine.

It is obviously logically impossible. There is so much going on for bitcoin including the support that would make it so hard for us to experience a huge dump like that which would take it to as low as $2000. Even the china FUD when it was around $4500 did not even bring it that low, let alone the level we are now. Impossible!

Unless something bigger than the china FUD happens, no way.

I do not see this happening, in fact I don't really expect to see bitcoin fall below $5k before the year end but that is far more feasible, only some doomsday scenarios would lead to a price of under 2k.

First, I want to you ask you, "How many months make Bitcoin increase to $3,000 to $6,000". After the FUD created by the Chinese government, I remember Bitcoin just needs one month to did that. So, why dose Bitcoin not drop down $2,000 within 2 months? Everything is possible.

I think below $5k might happen then bounce back up(would definitely buy more if price goes below $5k ;D). $2k is highly unlikely, i wouldn't bet on it.

I will never believe that now bitcoin can greatly fall in price. It would be a holiday for many users of this coin. And all would go again to buy bitcoin. But this will not happen, because the price can not fall much

Even after segwet2 the price of bitcoin sustain its position, then how can we expect that the price of bitcoin will lose 2000$. I think investor are even confident that very soon bitcoin will reach to 8000$ and so the price is expect to gain 2000$ instead of losing it. In fact bitcoin has still too much potential to increase its price and in fact the increasing demand of bitcoin is also increasing the price of bitcoin too much.

I hope the price of bitcoin will continue to increase not decrease . But if the price of bitcoin decrease for sure it will recover again because many people like me buy bitcoin again. Because we want more profit. But as of now the price of bitcoin continue to increase and I hope this is it. We need to increase more bitcoin price to make more profit. Keep your bitcoin.

No, I think bitcoin will not drop this low although it is unpredictable for us to speculate what would be the value of bitcoin before this year would end I'm positive that if ever it will dump the value may only reach $4000 at the lowest, right now the value has already reach $6200 that's why I don't think it will crashed that much. But if ever that will happen i think opportunity for investment will only open and surely by 2018 the value will rise and pump again.

If the whale still want to increase the price of Bitcoin again, they will create more FUD. I do not think the whale still keep this price to buying more and increase the value of Bitcoin again. It so stupid while they can control the market through the FUD.

No, i don't think bitcoin price will drop to 2000$ before end of this year. For sure many will get very disappointed if that happen but i think it will not. Maybe bitcoin price will decrease a little for many times before the year end but it will still rise and rise again until it will reach 7000$ until beginning of 2018.

No I can't see that there's a reason for bitcoin to dump like that. the only thing that can make btc price fall when another country banned btc on their country. that can happen but for now we're all good and I'm seeing $7000 before this year ends and if we're lucky enough like me as a long term holder we could see $10000 in mid 2018.

No one can obviously predict the outcome of what could happen in coming months or years.

We do not know if there can be something that can shake the support a little bit and create a mass dump. However, looking at where we are, it is pretty impossible to ever see the value of bitcoin dropping to $2000. The support is very strong and what we should be looking forward to now is another ATH.

If there will be something causing the market to shake heavily, it will be the hard fork next month. It's something I consider to be the final (known) obstacle this market has to deal with before taking off for real. That being said, this hard fork that will very likely result in a chain split, may also trigger people to buy themselves into Bitcoin to obtain more SegWit2x coins. If that turns out to happen, we may likely see the price correct afterwards due to people unloading their extra bought coins. Either way, $2000 is pretty much wishful thinking.

yes you are right and i am agree with you that the bitcoin price will not drop to again 2000$ at the end of this year because nowadays bitcoin are become  very powerful currency and many people want to adapt it, so therefore people need to no worried about the bitcoin price that it goes to drop and yes there are very less chances of bitcoin that its price are below to 5500$ but i hope that time will be very good time for us because this time we and many people buy it very easily.

It's possible but very unlikely. Is there any source? If bitcoins drops that much then whole crypto market will collapse as bitcoin is primary currency and people who just started investing in crypto currency will never comeback again as they will loose so much money if bitcoin drops below $2000.   

Many people fear the idea of bitcoin's price dropping significantly, but in fact such event would send bitcoin into space very quickly. With every drop people run immediately to buy as many bitcoins as they can afford, because they know it will be up once again very quickly. Even here we can read Many people saying, they are waiting for the price to be lower before they buy or that they wished the price could be $2000 for a one day once again. When it indeed happens, there will be so many buyers that the demand will drive the price in no time.

To make it fall down until  $2000, it need a special events like big country adopter like China, Russia or Japan decided to banned bitcoin, or there are some weakness in bitcoin that caused major problem, but the  chances of that happening is really small, so many people is supporting bitcoin so the price will constantly go up

It's impossible to drop at $2000 this year because if you look at the pricing range way back from January until now. Yet forks keep on coming and that makes the price growing so high in just less than half of the year.

That is not the only reason the price keeps on climbing,yes forking is a part,but institutional money is coming into bitcoin and so is the reason the price is increasing, the normal users or investors are not moving these prices,but millions of dollars from investors are pumping the price of bitcoin and most of the investors are in for the long run and so i am sure we wont see a crash.

Right now, there are no such signs which can predict that Bitcoin falling under $2,000. The Hardfork did not affect the value, Bitcoin still stands strong with a value of $5,700+. The upcoming event for Bitcoin is Segwit2x, which may affect the price. Most of the people thought that there may be a drop in price after Bitcoin Gold but things did not go that way. Also Bitcoin is highly unpredictable value under $2,000 is likely to be impossible but anything can happen.

Yes, if there is a massive dump of coins which is possible. Nobody knows the thought of whales in this case, a problem with that though is finding the money and buyers for the coins. With more users and interest, it wouldn't be a problem long term.

But I believe, it will not happen for end this year. Higher demand is stronger pushing bitcoin higher than sellers. Instead, I suspect bitcoin will pass through $7K for 2017.

its impossible to dump down the cryptocurrency price of bitcoin, at this year still stable on the $5000 to $6000 price. i will be happy if the bitcoin price will pump to $7000  :)

obviously not likely to happen, bitcoin down to $ 2000. What do you think? Bitcoin is not governed by the system, it is the market that determines bitcoin, only the market demand can reduce the bitcoin price. If you talk everyone does not need bitcoin anymore, then I'm sure you'll see bitcoin up to $ 2000, 2018 bitcoin will surpass $ 7000, who knows? Let's wait and see.

It can maybe yes or not. Nobody knows what would happen in the future. The newest record for the price never expected but we can make a speculation in the future studying the price chart. A lot of bitcoin holders will have to sell their coins just for the price to move downward.

Are you sayaing that it will fall a value of 2000$ or it will fall down to 2000$? But as what we are seeing, the market value of Bitcoin is continuously increasing and it is also true that there will always be instances that dumps will take place but it is really hard to believe that it will fall a huge amount of value as what you've said.

I don't think bitcoin price will drop before 2018 since the bitcoin price is rising at the moment. I know that bitcoin price will continue to rise its price by the end of the year and it can possibly hit $8000 and nothing is impossible with bitcoin since bitcoin already seen its potential and we already know that. I think even hard fork it will not going to dump until $2000.

I think it can happen only in a dream there is no chance that bitcoin can be drop end of the year bitcoin price is very high now a days and its going more high in coming months because recently bitcoin is accepted in some parts of china se well and day by day its users are going to increase and this year the users of traders and investors are also increased.

Do you know the bubble dot-com or the bubble price of Bitcoin in 2013? These examples can help you know: "Nothing is impossible, you only do not imagine these situations!" Therefore, I think the price of Bitcoin can drop $2,000 before the end of this year and it will low more if this trend still keep to next year.

Op, it is a possibility that is bound to happen at any time before end of 2018 reason been that nobody believe Bitcoin will reach its current market value it is today, at above  $6,300 as at the time of this post. If it eventually happen, some people who are late in the investment in Bitcoin will have the opportunity to buy at a cheaper rate but not sure if such a thing would ever happen.

I am also expecting a big drop this December, but not that low. But if it is, then better. ;D
Nobody can predict what will exactly happen. Let's wait and see. :)

Dont you think that $2000 is so far away from atm's price? bitcoin is over $6400 right now, and $2000 is just a 30% of it's total value (aproximately).
But yes, i hope that it is never going to happen because nobody would like to see their balance by a 60% less, but i dont know, maybe it could be a good opportunity to re-stock your portfolio with some cheap bitcoins, so it will be a win-win situation, but yes, nobody would like to see it happening.

There is at least a couple of months remaining before the year ends and the bitcoin price is still on uptrend hitting another all-time high. No one is in control of the virtual currency  but it is subject to any event that might the affect the bitcoin. The bitcoin's dropping to $2000 might not be possible now based on its present price trend unless there is an unforeseen event that will take the bitcoin down.

Come on a triple top in daily prices and it won't correct to at least $5k price? that's madness. I would rather bitcoin fluctuate up to 2k range value to burst one of the graphic trend, as it could it lead to divergence from real value and looks more like it to a bubble?
or
world went crazy and started to develop now 5 tops to market correction

 ::) ::) ::) ::)

Those days of such a steep price fall won't take place anymore. Now the price grows in large scale as well in small range with good stability. This won't let the price go down until some very serious issues take place with the bitcoin network. Hope the price moves more than $7500 by the year end.

Actually, many people would be so happy if at the end of the year we would have Bitcoin at the $2,000 level. Why? Of course, because it would then be a very good opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a cheaper level than it is now which is standing at $6,000 more or less. As those experts in Bitcoin can be saying: in every dip, there is an opportunity to buy cheap.

think we've grown too fast to $ 6,400 will be a good recession when its not who will not wait

It was the funniest news I've ever heard. Bitcoin is currently developing well and I see that there are so many prospects that Bitcoin's price is growing much better. The decrease in bitcoin prices is unreasonable and very unlikely.

The OP is not clear - does he mean Bitcoin will drop by $2000 or TO $2000. It is possible that we have a correction and Bitcoin drops by $2000. If we still end up over $5000, not many will be complaining.

Nobody know what can happen its possible at the same time it's  not impossible, all we can do is monitor the price  of bitcoin every hour or every day to see the movements but it vary on us consumer and trader of bitcoin how much are we willing to give in our investment for bitcoin  and it will vary on our return on investment to check if there are lots of people dumping it.

although nobody knows about the future of bitcoin but if you look at bitcoin's progress, I have a prediction about bitcoin that keeps growing and growing due to the fact the current bitcoin price has reached $ 6400, and to drop to $ 2000 as it is not possible for this year .

Follow whatever you believe in.

If you believe that bitcoin can drop that much then act upon it. Personally i don't think that we'll see much of a drop by the end of the year compared to the price now, even though we may experience adjustments along the way.

And i'm pretty certain that the price won't go down under $4500 again this year.

Bitcoin can't drop 2000$ before end of this year. It's hard to say anything but it's not a bubble, strong uptrend is clearly visible now.

What goes up must come down but absolutely bitcoin can't drop 2000$, every day crypto currencies include bitcoin are growing stronger. Of course the increase is mainstream and prices may go down but not much.

I personally do not think at all it will be happened, and I firmly believe it is not possible. Bitcoin price will stay far away beyond $2000 and I think the price will be stay above $5000 by till end of the year, possibly even will stay above $6000.

That is below half of the current bitcoin exchange. That would be unlikely but also possible. After all, bitcoin is unpredictable.

Although it's possible to crash. I'm sure  $2000 never happen again. Because, now bitcoin holders are numerous. Also many are off alt return to btc. Thus, this trend continues to support rising in bitcoin values.

it will be a terrible dream, If the word Bitcoin returns to two thousand dollars. I think that we have already passed this period, when the crypto currency will be lowered in price, especially the coin that has reached its maximum values, such as Bitcoin.

"Maximum values" is a word does not exist in the cryptocurrency and any asset for trading as Bitcoin. You have to remember as long as the investors still believe the future of Bitcoin and want to buy more Bitcoin, the price of Bitcoin will not drop down by any reason because those people helped Bitcoin created a strongly support price.

I don't think that it can happen. As of now we almost have $8200 bitcoin price, that is far different from $2k, if bitcoin will drop its price I think it will drop for maybe up to $5k or maybe around $4k, bitcoin now have a lot of users maybe that's why it is continue to rise its price.

$2000 is far low to the value at which we're standing at present. Maybe during the time of price correction the fluctuations might happen largely with the price falling to $6200, a $2000 difference and it never gets as low as $2000 at any hard market fluctuations in the future.

Theoretically you are correct, if you consider the high volatility of bitcoin it can drop that low, but in reality you not. This is overthinking or over analyzing things, though bitcoin has a high volatility, a lot of investors had already minimized their risks and people will not let their investments to go that low, probably you might have just thought that because of the volatility it can go down that much, but you failed to consider reality vs theory, and the reality is,  bitcoin will just have corrections but will not crash.

I totally agree, it can even happen that it could drop to $0 each and there's nothing we can do to revive it, but there is totally a greater chance that it could go up to the moon. Bitcoin code is solid and there is little factors that can affect the price to drop down to even $2,000. Probably the only things I can think off that would bring the price down to that is when all governments ban bitcoins, they find a bug to it and ultimately create unlimited bitcoins or alter previous transactions, or just down right be able to hack any address or even create transactions out of thin air. All of which have a pretty low probability to happen.

$2,000 is gone for the current price of Bitcoin. It can not drop to this price again unless the bubble of the Bitcoin's price bust breaks. Remember, there is no one wants to sell its Bitcoin at low price. Unless the cryptocurrency market has problem, I am sure the price of Bitcoin will never drop to this price when the bullish trend still strong as now.

I do not think Bitcoin dump will happen this year. Yes, it will fall, but in 2018, and the lowest price of BTC cannot be less than 6 thousand.

For me it's a no I am quite positive that the ending price of bitcoin  for the year 2017 will go as high as 12,000 US dollars but who knows it can also go down but not as low as 2,000 I don't think at this rate bitcoin can go down as that because with the volume of attention is quite receiving now I think bitcoin  is the positive end at the year end.

drop 2000$ is possible because it is less than 20% of total price and any bad news may cause that but bitcoin have rising  demand so drop with 2000$ is rarely before end of this year.

Price bumped a lot so if it rise to 1,3000$ and back to 11,000$ not mean it is drop 2000$
