Could this be accurate?

Nope that will never happen.
Bitcoin will not go down lower than 10.000$

Sell Bitcoins. Buy Gold for more and long term safe investments/profits.  :) You can buy gold and silver and store them in vaults in Switzerland, Singapore, UK.

$600 will decide the fate of Bitcoin. If Bitcoin survives, it will trade between $600 to $1200 as a speculative asset.

If Bitcoin goes to $21,000, it will be in year 2030 only. Silver price is going up +1% every week slow and steadily.

There is no basis for this prediction. In my opinion, it will be at least $30000 by the end of this year.

And how do you get the profit then?

:)

Gold and silver is safe for next 25 or 50 years. You sell bitcoins and buy gold at $1325 and gold price goes to $1400/ounce or $1500/ounce.

Your profit is $75 to $175 per ounce. The same for Silver  

This is a pretty insane thing to predict, it is certainly not "guaranteed" to not go under 10$k and there is a good chance it will.

Okay yea maybe it can go lower than 10k , but it will never hit 1k !
If it goes lower than 10k it will go to 7k max.

Not agree with you ! as per market demand price will be more than 18k .. i hope

And this is true there is no scope to tell the highest rate or lowest rate of bitcoin end of 2018

by the end of 2018 ? I think it will be 30000 dollars

It can be as accurate as the other thousands of predictions being made constantly, so that at least one will become true, but not so much because of the knowledge of the person making that prediction but because of pure probability.

If you get thousands of monkeys making predictions by throwing darts at figures repeatedly, at some point at least one will be correct.

ACCURATE -> next to impossible! bitcoin will never be more than 10.000USD as bitcoin is getting more attention from more people all over the world, people are now into bitcoin and the graph, we all know the demand! once go down by 20% or more people are having a panic buying just to have bitcoin and enjoy the profit in just a day! this is bitcoin now and never be down that much!

This report is already being discussed here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2753936.0

Seems like a load of bullshit.



All this seems like a blind guess in the dark.
 I predict the price of bitcoin will rise to $70000 and then fall to $3000 and then rise again to $32323
So if even one of these predictions come try then I should be hailed as a genius for accurately seeing the future!

I dont think a wall street consultancy firm is the correct person to take some guidance regarding bitcoin. Simply because they would themselves never want that BTC should go up. Because with every new person who enters into the crypto market a new stock market investor is lost which is reducing their own earnings. I think its curious to hear such things from people Like Warren Buffet and all.

News like this has so often arisen when bitcoin prices go down, but look what will happen tomorrow, an unexpected price will be in bitcoin (I mean showing an unimaginable increase)

Bitcoint to $180,000 USD by end of 2018.    8)

 ;D i don't think so. In the future, BTC will change the economic. Real money maybe not use popularity. BTC and some altcoins maybe replace real money to pay to  daily activities. Because of that, the cost of btc will increase in the future. ;D ;D

$10,000 is the bottom so think again

Cryptocurrencies may be the only market where anything is possible but $1800..? Really..? I too don't think it'll go under $10k for now but panic sellers are ruining the market right now so it may break that wall.

The end of 2018? If it doesn’t stop falling like a rock today it will be there before February.

$1800 is an awfully pessimistic prediction, that's like -90%. I find it doubtful, I think it's more likely it'll hop up to $30,000 or higher.

It is not impossible, but i think it will not happen due to imposition of Bitcoin futures. Nevertheless, look at the reference:
https://pensionpartners.com/when-does-a-bubble-become-a-bubble/

Though price of Bitcoin is not so high now but end of 2018, bitcoin obviously will cross 18k. Mostly price depends on demand. Still demand of bitcoin is not bad. In my thought, it can be hit 30k at the end of this year. Just wait for happening it.

Could it be? Of course it could be, anything could be. Will it be, almost certainly not. There is still too much support and interest in crypto and bitcoin especially, new money is staying away right now out of fear but once the market begins to recover they'll flock and buy at a high price pushing bitcoin even higher. January is always a bad month for crypto, why that is, I do not know,

So sad if its going to happen but it is only a prediction. Maybe it will not go down exactly $1,800 thats too much. Anyway everybody expecting that bitcoin going to crash but not below $5,000.

The demand is too high for BTC to go to 1800.

Please drop to 1,800!!! Come on 1,800!!!!

















So I can buy a bunch of it.  ;D

Time will tell, but I would agree that the bottom will not be much lower than this.

8)

LOL thats untrue, and will never going to happen no matter whatever worst happens. Its just a conspiracy theory.

hello, I do not think Bitcoin will drop more than $ 10,000 by the end of the year. so invest in bitcoin. even if it has fallen slightly, will grow even more

pretty sad, but bitcoin wouldn't grow higher than 1500$ MAXIMUM :(

The lower it gets, the greater will be its recovery.

The fact that it is dropping like a rock, is only happening because of fear of loss, and taking profit. When it reverses, everybody will see that Bitcoin is king. They won't fall for little, staged reversals in the future. Bitcoin will go like crazy.

However, if we get another dump like this sometime, the correction back up that follows that one will be greater than ever. Why? Because millions more people will know about Bitcoin by then, and will want to get on board for the future.

The crytpo market is very vocal. liquidity is increasing. I do not think bitcoin can drop to $ 1800. incremental bitcoin value. and they have been accepted by the world.

$ 1800, that's impossible. I think so. bitcoin has been accepted internationally. And I do not think the bitcoin will drop to $ 1800 while the crytstock market is going strong, capitalization is $ 500 billion.

That is impossible to happen because more people just join the party and many millionaires use bitcoin as future assets .

The concept you’re talking about was best described in the mid-19th century by P. T. Barnum, “There's a sucker born every minute".

The whole crypto currency market has certainly cooled since 2017. Will it fall further or increase? Everything depends on demand.

That's why fiat is doing as well as it is. It managed to gain critical mass among the populace. And then it became a household main stay. Fiat is strong right now, not because of all the manipulations banks and governments are doing to keep it that way. Rather, it is the people using it that is keeping it strong. If it weren't for the people, fiat would have bubble-crashed long ago.

Same with Bitcoin, and more-so. Bitcoin's only flaw is that it's not easy to trade hand to hand like cash. Once Bitcoin reaches everyday use among 5% of the people, critical mass will set in, and Bitcoin will take over. Fiat will crash and burn.

8)

Anyone can make a prediction. Almost everyone is wrong. All these predictions are just stabs in the dark. No one really knows what will happen

 Are yoy sure with that? $11k now and still declining.

Everything is possible, that's the only thing I confident)

Although this might be impossible but the cryptocurrency world has taught me that anything is possible, althought the price right now is dropping really fast and i say it might go below 10k but i am confidant that it will go up again, and when it is going to go up its going to skyrocket and the price will explode, last year aproximatly at the same time bitcoin went down from 1100$ to 700$ and people were terrified and thought that it was the end, but the wise thing to do is to take this oppurtounity and buy more to get more profit when it goes up again.

Anyone can write something that they want. It is up to us to examine it. Whether we believe it or not depends upon our own judgement. Noone can tell what will happen in the future. They are just predicting it. And prediction as we all know isn't always true.

Are you hoping for stronger fiat?     ???

It's possible that Bitcoin could go down up to that kind of price point but, most of us supporters of Bitcoin really know what is the potential of Bitcoin. The prices may go really bloody just wait for the lightning networking to be applied to the system more and more investors are going with BTC again.



How can you assure that we could even make that much of money in the future? do you have proofs that prices may surge. yes you do may earn something for the long run but, for 10%-12% earnings how long would it take? 30-50 years? there are no assurance that you can earn big with small capital unlike crypto. never compare cryptocurrency with something that is physical.

No, no, no. Gold and silver in safe for next 25 or 50 years.

It is unlikely that bitcoin will fall to this price. It is not beneficial neither miners nor investors, nor the exchanges which recently opened a futures trading. Bitcoin will cost so much, how many it is profitable for those who invested in him a lot of money and we the little people with their cents will be able to view and build dodatki.

Wow that is a huge fall and in my opinion is too big, if BTC fall that deep then there will be another coin replacing BTC place,but it's unlikely will happen, Bitcoin falling is just temporary, it will recover back, and panic sell or spreading FUD won't help BTC

Well. Have gone pessimistic forecasts. I personally do not believe that bitcoin will collapse to such a level. It's just unimaginable. It seems to me that bitcoin has enough potential to pass through 2018 with dignity.

I do not believe this is accurate, if you look at current rate at which bitcoin is decreasing, this will not happen by end of 2018 it should happen q2 of 2018 at the latest.   ;D

It will not, I am sure it will rebound in 8000$ and hit 25000$ by end of this year

No one can anticipate the future of Bitcoin, these are just speculations by many people, with my thinking Bitcoin will rise higher in the last months of the year because it has been growing.

I don't think so ! it will never be happen. But btc price will go down. it already right now $11k while 1 month ago it was $19k. in my thinking at the end of the 2018 btc price would be $10k to $25k.

I think this can not happen in such a size. There is a prolonged drop, but to reach 1K is unlikely.
But anyway the crypto-currency market is unpredictable.

Nothing is unlikely if all traders sell all of the Bitcoins they own and all whale sells all of their Bitcoins and will not continue pushing prices, this will happen. We should prepare for the worst possible happenings.

Too many people panic now, and take the decision to sell their bitcoin but this is normal they are trying to save their wealth because they think bitcoin will go more lower, but it's not going to happen.
In the history of the price of the bitcoin this kind of thing once we have  experience, and this is only a temporary price of the bitcoin will return as before.

This is one of the biggest shits I ve read in all of my years in crypto.

I wonder how such a respectable portal can afford to publish that kind of junk.

I hope you're wrong with your prediction to this very small value compared to the reached value already of the Bitcoin.  I'm hoping that it will go up about US$ 30,000 at least. Well, we are all free to state our predictions.  ;)

I think it's a 100% fake. Don't buy it.

I think this is not accurate. If you look at the chart, crypto market is going down when approaching February year to year.
Bitcoin is not going to $1,800. That is the misleading predict by certain people, that makes you sell your bitcoin, and then they buy it, so they can gain profit later when bitcoin price arise.

take a look at bitcoin price in january 2015,2016,2017. you can see the price drops so hard and rebound in feb-march. so this is an anual event of bitcoin, the time for buy more bitcoin

it isn't true because this price is related to the January. It seems it will grow again, in February. Good news is comming

I highly doubt that it will even go below $8,000... unless there's some really bad news that would destroy the faith of most holders.

Yes, bitcoin is dropping these days but it does not mean that it will go down for $1000 in the end of this year. Maybe it is what Robert Shiller are trying to say that it is just a bubble thought he predicted the market bubble on 2003 but on bitcoin its a different one. Dropping of its price is a matter of fluctuation happening in the market, it is affected by the law of demand and supply so it must increase and decrease what just really happening now is demand for bitcoin is quite less than last year.

All the predictions of the bitcoin cost rate, this is a finger tapping into the sky.
No one can accurately predict it.
You can talk about the perspective of the price in some time interval.

I think Bitcoin will only get stronger in 2018.
All the alts are down, it is something that going to change soon.

By the end of 2018 ? I hope it will be 35.000 dollars

I beg to differ as I see this as a set-up for a break-out.. Check the chart, I could be right. xD

Nobody can give a sure shot value because the Crypto market is quite uncertain and we never know the next move Here. So it won't be right to give an exact value.

According to me, the price may not hit such a high and a dip is expected. Rest nothing is guaranteed here in the Crypto market.

When people are talking of bitcoins and u dont even have 0.1 of it... Where was i when pple were investing at low price. Life not fair

Yeah I agree. That value is not acceptable with our current situations. We are hoping that it will go up as more people are now getting more interest on bitcoin.
Anyway its only there speculations, everyone can do it. I'm expecting the price will be @ $18k to $20k by year end.

Bitcoin will be up to 30k $ per 1 BTC till the end of 2018 year. Current correction is predictible - there is no markets that could grow up without corrections

Though bitcoin price is now low but bitcoin price never get down at $1800. I don't think so. Bitcoin price increasing again and hit 20k at the end of 2018. Bitcoin demand still is in better position. Hope that bitoin price hit a big amount again.

I don't think that the price will be down for that price although everything is possible, I think the price will increase back to higher. but this time, I see the price makes people panic because they are not expecting to see this dropped off the price. but I think this year, bitcoin will attract many people and they will buy bitcoin before the price increase higher.

I don't believe in such predictions. The proliferation of cryptocurrencies has been so successful because in the world there is a demand for an alternative to Fiat. This gives me confidence in the fact that the fall in prices is a temporary phenomenon. The demand produces the supply. Now speculators will buy coins and the price will rise to $ 20,000. I would not be surprised if at the end of the year we will see the price of 30-50K per bitcoin.

market crash is normal, whenever it happens everyone sell their cryptocurrency and they buy again when it start growing . but you know ?
this is right time to invest , Invest in altcoins like ripple , bitcoincash and many more to double your profit , they will not drop to last.
bitcoin will not going below 8000$ its the last stage. once market will be stable every thing will be fine and people will get profit from every coin.
just pray to god and tweet that we support bitcoins to the all media channels of South korea

Why or have you got to sell the house if that happens ?

Not only can i see it going below $10,000 today but i can see transactions fees going over $50 as people start to
bail out which is not bad for miners since a year ago the fees were like ten cents

Clearly the bitcoin development team didn't put safeguards in place to stop miners charging us what they
want and long term this is whats killing Bitcoin

Proper education will makes your more confident in this kind of market. Bitcoin will never be back at $2k level we must be more realistic. Dumping is part of the game there is no easy road but if you look at the long term possibilities you will see a big potential for bitcoin to soar higher.

I agree with you. You need to have the knowledge on how bitcoin goes in the market and what is the history of bitcoin in the first place. 2K is far enough to reach even at 7-8K is almost impossible to happen, no matter how the bitcoin will always bounceback.

Well at the current decline rate, the BTC price may go lower than $10000 but I expect a rebound this year and we'll see higher prices than in 2017

Nobody could really predict what will happen to the bitcoin price in the future. But in my opinion, bitcoin will slowly lose it's dominance over the other coins, because it's tech is outdated. The fees and confirmation times are not acceptable except for speculating peoples, there is no way it could be used for daily purposes. The "normal" people will slowly learn that fact, and will turn to other coins, better suited for real world use.
Also, the energy required for mining bitcoin is a strong concern, I don't think it is sustainable. In the long term, the world needs a more energy efficient crypto.
So, this is just my opinion, but if nothing is done, bitcoin could lose much of it's value in the future, and others coins would benefit of that.

i have read tons of prediction about BTC price by the end of 2018, going from 1million dollar back to 500$ each.
Guess what? we can't know what will be the price, you can sort of foreseen on a weekly basis but by the end of the year it's almost impossible.
Like most of the users already answered, this will not happen because there is way to much attention dragged to BTC and at this point, the lowest it can be around 10k or a bit less.
There are way too many people involved, companies and investors to let it drop to nearly 0.. on the other hands, everything can happen just depend on the environment around BTC and crypto in general.

Everyone has his/her own opinion about how bitcoin would like be on a slated time. I don't think that will ever happen because bitcoin is the king of the cryptoworld and its stability and dominance will keep it afloat against adversaries.

Even the experts are having a hard time in predicting the value of bitcoin, honestly, I don't know what to do with my holding but what's in my mind is to just hold what I have, if it will be worth a $500 let us see, but I think it could not happen, it will still recover after a month, so I'll just patiently wait for it.

ha ha ha, that's all I'm gonna say..

Just be patient and dodn't freak out because for sure this is just another run of pump and dump. If you freak out you will just contribute to the markets rundown of price.

Marked you as one of the worst financial analyst, ever.

nobody can predict that. it can be $1800 or $18000.

Hi there Sinistlercoin! The news is all about “prediction”    and currently, there are also predictions that say that bitcoin could reach at a Million dollar in few more years. But then again, those are what we called “prediction”. One can’t say a prediction is accurate enough to be judge. You could come back when the stated year 2020 com and check the price of bitcoin. On the other hand, the trend in crypto nowadays is combined by utility use, just like the Ripple and Strat. That is why, prediction for that innovation could be real, but the price could be questionable.  ;)

What is your optimism based on? The cost of 10,000 is only a number, not more. Already tonight, bitcoin can cost 9,000, and tomorrow even less.

20K By the End Of The YEAR >  ;)

Bitcoin price is unpredictable..Last year bitcoin price ends up with almost $20k and it's impossible to fall down to $1,800 this year and I believe that the price of bitcoin until the end of the 2018 will reach up to $20k.

I went to the kitchen, drank tea, came back - and bitcoin 9600 costs. And what will happen to him when I start supper?

I really do not think there is a way to tell at the moment in what direction we are heading.
One year ago, bitcoin was at about 1000$. Who would have thought that bitcoin would take the developement we have seen?
Unfortunatelly developements can go in two directions.
What keeps me optimistic is the fact that there are many hodlers out there. People who do not sell, no matter how far it goes down.
I suppose they provide one factor that keeps the price way above the number mentioned in the title.

Maybe it can go to $1800,because the price of all crypto currencies is falling and it makes me feel unsecured about bitcoins and other altcoins.I am already lost good amount of money in terms of USD.I wish that current crazy downtrend have to stop soon or it maybe the end of crypto currency era. :(

It might go to 18 cents.     No one knows.   

ouch...

The market is down but does not think it will continue to go down for a long time. I do not think Bitcoin can drop below $ 8000, I'm sure this is because the market will come back soon.

Your prediction is incorrect, bitcoin is now below $10k
and falling, I really would hope bitcoin could go back up soon,
allot of pro traders said bitcoin will hit $100k - $200k 2018.

That's where your wrong kid.

Price is currently sitting at $9,600 ea.

The Amount of FUD here is UNBELIEVABLE!!   :D

Please have some respect for yourself as a human and don't post something that makes people think cheap about you, after all, every human deserves some respect unless you are insane.

My wild conspiracy theory is as follows.... Some whales are dumping coins left right and centre to create panic. They have

noticed that the Lightning Network is going to blast Bitcoin to the Moon and they want to buy back at a much cheaper price.

So the best thing to do, is too dump... create panic... price goes down.... buy back cheap.  :-\ .... That still does not explain

the price drop in Alts.  ???

I'm not sure it can happen, because the bitcoin dropped sharply, it's down to $ 10,000. We are very worried. Hope bitcoin prices soon recover

Have a look at coinmarketcap.com now :))
I think nobody should claim anything, unless you're Marty McFly.

I think bitcoin will get stronger after this price drop

I think bitcoin going to hit 50K by the end of 2018. It may decrease to 8k before rise but it won't take long to recover. January in the last few years became the dumping period for cryptocurrencies. Many newcomers will get burnt unfortunately. One way or another we all learn our lessons what will make us stronger.

By the end of 2018, it will rise above 20k.

sell now to be safe. If bitcoin is not declared illegal you can buy later

What people keep forgetting is the fact that BTC is the main pair for trading on every single exchange, yes some of them also use ETH and LTC but majority is using BTC. It's a simple rule of supply and demand, as long as there are exchanges out there that are supporting BTC/ALT pairs there will be demand for BTC, always... and I don't see it happening anytime soon that suddenly all exchanges decide to remove BTC/ALT pair...

Genius. 

Pure genius.  Should have sold a long time ago.  Do you wnat to ride the price to the very bottom?

We cannot predict the value of bitcoin and we all know that the value of bitcoin is unstoppable yes it is and i think your research will might not be happen

The experts generally agree that the future of cryptocurrencies is up in the air. It's still being written and we don't know where it will all go. Bitcoin may not be top dog forever. It would actually be quite surprising if it did! There are new innovations all the time and one of these innovations may render Bitcoin useless or irrelevant. To protect your investment it is advised to diversify across between 6 to 12 different cryptocurrencies. This way, if anything happens to Bitcoin you won't lose everything. Not only this, but it allows you to take advantage of some stellar returns on the newer, more speculative altcoins.

IMO, $1,800 is not possible. Some companies are taking advantage of the current market situation and make investors divert their investments. I am confident that Bitcoin price will grow dramatically by end of 2018. My target is around $150,000.

I don't think that can happen and by the time bitcoin is going to bounce back it will be so surprising to many

This would only happen if most of the countries start to ban Bitcoins, but this would not happen.

There are multiple factors which can affect the price drop and price gain and no one can predict what would be the price after one year. There is no algorithm or method to predict future price of Bitcoin.

I think so. If the price is $6000 now everyone will be crazy about it to buy everything. If it is $1800 definitely I will buy as many as I could. So does everyone else.
My target will be around $50,000 at least by the end of 2018.

No one does the correct guessing up until now anyway.

Unfortunately bitcoin today has already dropped below $ 10,000. Now the following support levels are between $ 7500-9200 $. This correction was deeper than many expected. Excellent time to buy cheap crypt. ;)

They can't. They just can't ban all crypto in the world. They want to regulate it but it doomed to fail. US is smart only to tax is. Dubai, singapore, Estonia are even smarter to join in the revolution of crypto. Let see. In the future we will see.

Well, there can only be two outcomes, either it is truly accurate, or not. Just like any other speculations out there. Of course, out of all the people out there saying things or predicting things about the future of bitcoin, there will always be someone that will get it right according to his predictions. But what i can guarantee is that no one really knows for a fact what will happen to bitcoin in the future. So better to follow your own instinct than follow others that are as accurate as your predictions. Just sayin'.

Anything is possible with crypto-currency. What do you think? If Bitcoin can drop 50% in less than three weeks, then definitely it can drop by more than 80% in 12 months time. So be prepared for the worst case scenario. If you remember what happened during 2014-16, then it is clear. It was a very gradual decline from around $1,000 per coin to $200 per coin.

1800 $ usd at the end of 2018 is probably not possible. The price has fallen very much today, but this may cause that people will soon start buying again and the market will start to grow again.

Well, that's one way to solve the fee issue :)

How can you be so sure that it will not got down to 10k $? We all know that bitcoin price is very volatile. Everything is possible when it comes to bitcoin's price.

Bitcoin bubble has burst, it is game over for all crypto assets. The bottom is not 10,000$, but rather 100$ by the end of February.

This is just like Nasdaq in 2001, or the Dutch Tulip Bulb mania in the 1600s, except on warp speed. Don't delude yourself and sell now, BTC has no intrinsic value!

https://imgur.com/a/Czeb5

Bitcoin will be grown after March. the maximum price of the fall is 8-8.5 thousand. then he does not fall. this is my personal opinion

The calculation and prediction is based on if none adopts bitcoin. But if you look at other articles, we see Russia adapting bitcoin and Japan has already began mining in a large scale. The correction happens now and then. As a coin has two sides, when one avoids, one adapts. The market is full of pumps and dumps. Its common. It will recover soon. Even Alibaba from Singapore is launching mining business in China. These are few sources promising pumps in future.

$1800? No way. There is more chance to reach 180k than 1,8k
But my bet is something near $50k by the end of 2018.

Very Unlikely. Btc has a great amount of support and demand, which will prevent even a minor downfall. It will rise, just as long there's no panic selling and enough patience is prevalent.

I am new in this game - but there isn't that much fear in my current telegram group. They are more concerned about when the bottom hits and if they are able to get back in during the dip. My best guess is somewhere around 8000. But anyway be very careful. I haven't invested that much into this, and from ATH moneywise I am just down 50% - (Like most).Thread carefully. But they cannot predict crypto - the trend now does not follow the HTML bubble anyway. I looks more like a plain correction than a bubble.

I don't believe that. There were probably all possible numbers used for BTC price speculations. My personal opinion is that it will go up.

I will not say how much.

I don't think that bitcoin will go to the bottom of level 1,800 USD it is not possible too at the end of 2018. At the same time most of people including me expected that bitcoin will not go below 10,000 USD now bitcoin is under 10K so some thing is signaling about bitcoin so we should be practical anyone has more bitcoin they should book the profit to avoid panic selling.

I dont think it will happened. There are several reasons for btc to going up the price again many new investors come to the cryptocurrency field day by day. Few countries cannot destroy bitcoin.in my prediction btc will hit $30,000 at the end of this year

Exactly! Clearly this fips are more of a good thing than a bad thing. Not just for Bitcoins, but also for all of the other crypto currencies existing out there nowadays. Since this types of scenarios halps the cryoto world get rid of panic selling noobies that are bad for the industry.

Also, everyone can make predictions out of nothing. It isn't hard. And all can be as accurate as the other. Because out of all the people predicting things about the future of crypto, we can expect that someone will really have the lucky guess. But what i am sure at is that no one really knows exactly what the future of cryptos will be.

Nobody can predict the future, but honestly this seems definitely not realistic to me.

Maybe 8000$-9000$, but not less.

No one now what will happen in the future of bitcoin but in my opinion i think bitcoin still in the top and the most cryptocurrency used for many years

I don't see any hard evidence backing this claim. Just today I read some analysis explaining why bitcoin will reach $48K by the end of 2018. There is simply a lot of uncertainty right now and unless the market starts to stabilize, I'm fairly sure that no one can claim to predict the trajectory of bitcoin accurately.

Bitcoin will drop from time to time but dropping below 2k is not possible. There will be a cushion for every drop and the current price range is already the cushion for bitcoin. It will rise back!

It already has today.

I do not think this will happen. It is still a bull market. These corrections in the price are normal.

lol it's already under $10.000. So probably $8000-$9000 will be in the next two days.

Everyone has come with different speculation and at this point, bitcoin is dangling back and forth but a dipping is what we can all see. The actual price it will reach before a stability or come back is not yet ascertained. It is all red on the market for now.

What ? 1,800$ are you serious men !!! I think this impossible to happen ! Bitcoin price will increase soon again and it will reach more than 20.000$ !

the price of bitcoin has already fallen by 50%. now the price is below 10,000 dollars.
probably the price will continue to fall.. obviously someone is up to something...
The price may drop to $ 5,000 ... who knows. we will see.  8)

it's just a bullshit prediction. $9000 is the bottom and it will rise again strongly. There are many whales and Sharks start buying back Bitcoin now. Let hurry up

I think we ll start seeing major recovery tomorrow, I hope we ve reached bottom today.

This is a pretty normal correction if you look at the history of Bitcoin. It should start increasing again in about a week.

wtf is bitcoint ?  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I think is $18,000 =))

Corrections do happen. If you look at the history of crypto pumps and dumps in January, this is normal. The main thing we need to look at is the altcoins. Their values have gone down in two digit red. Really worst situation happening here. But never worry about it. This kind of events should happen to be written in the history record. There should be some spices. Many countries have started adapting bitcoins. Once the traders from South Korea close, the price will resume slowly.

People said that about 10,000.  Not convinced the market is healthy.  I don't see 1,800 but I do see 6k~

i think 10k for the moment  cant see it go down to 1800 .In the near future anyway

Don't try to spread FUD news about bitcoin it will not happen in the first place because a lot of people are investing.. it's a massive adoption so if things go wrong then people choose altcoins but i think 1,800 wont happen.

A small drop and everyone becomes a pessimist to the point of seeing bitcoin at this price, the bitcoin will continue its rise and it will be higher by the end of 2018

below 7.000 is a very doubtful outcome for bitcoin! how come that figure will be! bitcoin will never end up less than 5000 USD as bitcoin gained the popularity and most people are into it! why bitcoin price go dump? JP morgans! try to talk to him and the LN! soon you will see what is this all about!

What is his opinion based on? Bitcoin is the store of value as gold is more than a currency at this point, all other cryptos are measured against it, even if that is its only use the price should hold. Its 'utility' is the store of value for other coins

yay! courses come to life!

Anything can happen, we can never stop the bitcoin price, and in the last 3 days it's been a bad day in bitcoin history, the price drop too fast and very big even yesterday the price drop to 48%.

$1800 by the end of 2018, what a joke, if this happened I would buy all I can, and hold and laugh.

Bitcoint can go down to $1800 but I dont think bitcoin will go to $1800. Everything can happen yes but I dont believe that crypto market will die this year. If it goes down that much this market dies. So it is very early to see that.

As I said the price will always bounce back. Even if the price had reached 9K yesterday. It is now back to 11K right now. I hope the corrections is over. LOL

No, there might be some frustrations, but price will became stable and it will not be so low.

I find this extremely hard to believe.
I think Bitcoin price will hover around $13-15k until Lightning Network has arrived. Once that does and starts working well, it's hard to predict the price, but it definitely won't go down. But it will most likely break $20.000 and go above quite a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks $30.000 and the whole crypto scene is worth 1.5trilion by the end of 2018.

Excuse me , but on what basis is your opinion built on if you could explain ?
Such assumptions are just very bad opinions to write on the forum without making any explanation or backing it by any theory , you are building opinions on nothing but your speculation that could be totally inaccurate and based on 0 experience which is just FUD .
Bitcoin is struggling at the moment but lots of measures are being taken or scheduled to be taken , segwitted addresses are gaining ground and clearing some of the network congestion , others are talking about LN which could solve all of this and based on this everything should be okay , please stop spreading FUD .


And it has risen back of 10.25% today and crossing the 12k bar again , so this is always an up and down thing and you can't judge something over such a short period of time neither a percentage that can be easily manipulated especially after that a lot of people sold their cryptos assets hours before the declaration of the new measures that were going to take place and shut down crytpos exchanges in Korea .
The wheel can go back sometimes but it'll eventually shift to 1st gear sooner or later and go forward ;) .

Less than 8K its difficult i think on BTC

Anyone who belives this, send me all the bitcoin you can and I will take it at $1,800 - No problem. Dont listen to Jamie Fudder. He just doesnt want his world order changed.

The 1800 obviously won't happen but 2018 won't be anywhere near like 2017 was. Btc has it's well known problems and until those problems are solved I see no reason why the price should be more than 10-15. 20k is a pumped price. When the lightning network will be ready then we can talk about the next big jump

Yes it is possible that price will decrease if old bitcoins from 2009-2014 addresses are pumped on the market. Especially if more governments will want to regulate cryptos. But no one knows when it may happen.

Yes ye old "lightning Network" will save us
See https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2776719.msg28395400#msg28395400
Alice wants Bob to help her pay for her breakfast using his channel

I hope not. I know there will be a bubble but I really do expect it to occur much later. Like in 3 years? I still need to grow my investments now.

That's too much $1,800 seriously? Bitcoin is starting to recover now and I don't think we will about to see that price soon at the end of 2018. Maybe you lack of two zeros at the end of those digits. That article tells about a wall st consultancy, I don't trust any of them. Most of them are bankers and you know what will they say about bitcoin? All of their statements and description about bitcoin is negative, they'll lose their business or if not they want to buy it at cheaper price.

You're straight man but why your names a banker?  ;D

No one can say with complete certainty that it is not going to be true or false. In reality, we cannot define the intrinsic value of BTC yet and hence it is still said to be a bubble. We have to find real life applications for all of these cryptos and build intrinsic value for these. Otherwise, an apocalypse is inevitable.

If our wall street consultant is confident about this happening come December, let him put his job on the line so that we take him serious instead of spreading FUD which he has nothing to lose for it.

Maybe editor made a typo and was suppose to refer to bitcoin cash in the article :P

While there is no reason to lower the price of bitcoins to $ 1,800. True, this can happen before the end of the year, if bitcoin ceases to improve and eliminate its shortcomings and, if at the same time there are still some events that will also affect bitcoin in the direction of its reduction in price. If the shortcomings of bitcoin are eliminated, then by the end of this year, he may well reach a rate of 35,000 - 40,000 dollars.

Throughout these last weeks I have read many forecasts about the price of bitcoin by the end of this year. Most are quite conservative and have already stopped predicting a price above $100,000, and so far the most pessimistic forecast was $6,000. However I think that a price as low as $1,800 would mean a total disenchantment of investors which seems unlikely, although if the bitcoin begins to die iy does not mean that all other cryptos do so too.

Not at all

100.000 maybe its too much in one year only, but possible of course.

No, this is not accurate and that is my opinion. You need to check the history of Bitcoin market value and you see the trend. It always going up not going down. It also shows that during the month of January Bitcoin goes deep down but after that, it will go high above again.

Seriously? I do not think so that Bitcoin price value will go down into that price of $1,800 which is literally too far to happen because at our currenct time, Bitcoin was playing in price from $11,000 and up. If you will just see and observe, that thing was really impossible to make happen because Bitcoin has many supporters right now and the Bitcoin community is now getting larger than before so I think it will not happen to make a downfall up to $1,800 because the demands will soon to rise up again in no time.

I think no. The market value of Bitcoin always goes down during January. Then after that, it goes up high enough. Always go back to the history price of Bitcoin. It will help you a lot.

Seems OP is trolling us here. So much money already being put on bitcoin and I dont think it will reach that low. As always there are people willing to buy, because its an opportunity.

I'm sure that bitcoin prices will never under $ 7500 in this year, maybe the price will be around $ 20k- $ 50k, so I do not believe if the bitcoin price will drop up to $ 1800.

That is impossible.  I think bitcoin price will go down but not to the very lowest price  like $1,800 at the end of this year.  2018  recently started and it is a very long run when we talk about it for now.  Anything can happen but I think not that bad.

The crypto market has returned after bad news about it. This proves that Bitcoin will continue to grow, and will continue to increase. Bitcoin prices will never drop $ 1,800.

I wonder what is Bitcoin mining prime cost today?
I can bet it's greater than 1800$...

Its not accurate and I don't believe that the price of bitcoin will go down at around 1800$. As we can see in the graphs of bitcoin in the past years, the price of bitcoin always goes down in the first months of the year but in the succeeding years it will rise again. Anyway anything is pure speculation and nobody really knows what will happen next

lol the person who wrote this is comparing bitcoin to the dotcom "bubble" hilarious!! You don't need to know more. Any idiot can write an article online saying anything. There must be thousands of articles like this. Bitcoin will keep going up. Bitcoin is still young. The writer wants people to sell their bitcoin so he can buy them ^^

When Silver is $18/ounce, will people buy Bitcoin for $5000 ????

With the way everyone is interested in owning a bitcoin now I doubt it will sink that deep as predicted by the consultancy. Predictions aren't always right.

If so I will buy 1000 Bitcoin and leave it :))  :o :o :o :o :o ::) ::)

I suggest everybody, who gets all worked out over such predictions one good book: The Black Swan by Nassim Taleb. It is very educational and it will put predictions such as 1800 by 2018 or 100k by xxxx to the right corner. Bitcoin is the example of the Black Swan and it cannot be predicted.

That will never happen. For me bitcoin by the end of this year will be 25,000 dollars at least. This price is at least but it would more than this I guess because no matter what the issue for bitcoin nobody can stop its moves.

$600,000,000,000 looks like dead end for cryptocurrencies

Here take my vote : No.

I don't think bitcoin is that bad development which will make it look like couple of thousand worth inevstment. As the years will pass I'm sure that we will see some brighter buy walls which are going to be higher than the current one. It is solid currency which is not liable to fall as much low as you are thinking here. What do we see here is just the old bans, corrections and same thing over and over again of which we should be used to now. It will be over 20k this year, mark that down.

That will be $1800 x 1000 = $1,800,000  ;D You have $1.8 million to throw away ??

I need $20,000 for my website which far better than gambling on stock markets, Bitcoin etc..

Surely diversifying your portfolio is a better option it is true that gold and other commodities are relatively save investments. Bitcoin will continue to grow over the years even after people panic.

A Wall Street consultancy's crypto report - and it should strike fear into the heart of every bitcoin bull/user

Quinlan & Associates put out a report Thursday titled "Fool's Gold: Unearthing The World of Cryptocurrency" in which they outline a case for bitcoin dropping to $1,800 by December 2018.

Here's the report:

"As an asset, we valued Bitcoin using a cost of production approach and a store of value approach, resulting in values of USD 2,161 and USD 687 respectively. To value BTC as a currency, we estimated its utilization for both legal, retail transactions payments, as well as payments in the black market. After significant testing, we calculated the price of BTC 1 to be USD 1,780."

At its current valuation, the consultancy concludes bitcoin is a bubble "waiting to burst." If bitcoin is not adopted as payment method, the firm predicts a major bitcoin correction to $1,800 that'll also drag the cryptocurrency market down 70% to $223 billion later this year from its current position above $700 billion.

https://www.businessinsider.in (https://www.businessinsider.in/A-Wall-Street-consultancy-eviscerated-crypto-in-a-massive-report-and-it-should-strike-fear-into-the-heart-of-every-bitcoin-bull/articleshow/62468461.cms)

I don't think so, not only because the goverments ban Bitcoin will lead Bitcoin into a crisis . Bitcoin already been through all those, so it's maybe a game of Pump and Dump.

and where will $800,000,000,000 come from for 1 bitcoin = $30,000 ?? There is no basis for your prediction

Bitcoin will be at least $30000 by the end of this year. There is no way it will be $1800.

I don't think it can deep that low. With what has happened, the price is somewhat having a limit to the dip because of the volume in circulation.

It's absolute no sense a prediction like that...in a market like cryptocurrencies a long term vision is just a hope.

From the same people that said Bitcoin will collapse in 2015, 2016 and 2017.

I'll buy you all a drink if it does.

there is nothing impossible in the world of crypto, including bitcoin to the price of 1800$, but that's just a prediction. But we can say bitcoin down to the price of 1000$ at the end of 2018, but it must be based on strong analysis and fundamentals. this is logically until the end of the year it seems difficult bitcoin to the price of 1800 $ considering the interest in bitcoin has grown rapidly indicated by bitcoin users from year to year is growing

based on?

   I am not a trader, but i rather think it will get over 20k despite all the regulations that will come in cryptopia in 2018.

If Quinlan & Associates are being serious then they should short BTC futures. Put your money where your mouth is.

But of course they won't...

No one knows what will be the price of bitcoin at the end of 2018 but 1 thing for sure i'm confident it will not drop @ 1800$.  Year on year you can see BTC price chart fall at the first quarter of the year and may start recover again  in the late part of the second quarter onward. if Bitcoin will fall in 1800$ all crypto coins may affected and that would be a collapse for crypto world. BTC price has huge effect to other coins whether it is going down or going up.

At least 10000$

Why ??  ???   ::)

is everyone believe that BTC will go to 100k in the ends of 2018?

i see in pro trader in tradingview that predict will touch that price

beside btc which coin that will close with BTC?

Bitcoin fell from $20,000 to $10,000  ;D

it is very difficult to estimate the price of bitcoin end of 2018 even daily or monthly. No one knows what bitcoin is going to happen if you believe in those fake news and that you have no confidence in the bitcoin platform right now that you'll be thinking about where you're moving to earning such a great deal.

For me, it is not literally accurate. Because $1,800 price for Bitcoin was really too far from its current price which is already on the range of $12,000 and up. I think it will not be possible that Bitcoin price will be dropping into that price because Bitcoin have already set its price into the top and it will be too ironic that after a great pump is it will suddenly go drop into the price of $1,800. I also think that was not really possible because of the massive population Bitcoin community currently have, Bitcoin price can no longer drop into the price of $1,800 at the end of 2018.

I do not think so ::)

If this happens for real a lot of people will loose a lot of money.

My God, I hope not. If it is, then I'd be dirt cheap. My bitcoins will surmount to nothing if that happens. Maybe I would sell my bitcoins if it reached $9,000. I'll just cut my losses and buy again when the price seem to be climbing again. I don't want to risk losing a lot more money on bitcoins.

If Bitcoin gets to $9,000 and you sell your coins then I hope that it goes up to $20,000 immediately after you sell them.

Well nobody knows, despite of the comparisons being shown by researchers, bitcoin might be dropping or dumping around january every year for the last 5 years. We can't still be sure enough that bitcoin will still grow because it will still depend on the law of supply and demand that will affect the price of it.

Only history will tell if this is accurate. There is no way to predict it. However, it must be remembered that Bitcoin has already lost in the past a big deal of its value, once it tanked from 60$ to 2$. So never say never :)

There is no basis for making this prediction. I think that it will be at least $30000 seeing the past trends.

lolzz... I can bet with you, that never happens. Bitcoin is still one of the best coins in the market and with FUD, many people will buy it when the price falls down.

anything is possible, even $1,800 USD per 1 BTC, but since Bitcoin is a main currency (like USD in fiat) I don't think we'll see that. BTC remains a coin for exchanging other coins.

Agreed! There is no way that we can deny the capabilities of bitcoin as we have seen in the past that how bitcoin has manages to reach the market value of 20k $ and that in such a short period of time. The market value of bitcoin is little down now-a-days but this does not certainly means that it will remain the same in the comings days too. Things will change and bitcoin will rise again.

I would say BTC to 30k$ until end of 2018. But it depends of a lot of factors. One of them is if ETH will overtake it than it could go down to 2k$. But I think it will be the opposite.

In one year, Bitcoin went up from $1000 to $20,000.   ::)

So by end of 2018, Bitcoin = $800   ;D

Anything is possible in this world.Either bitcoin can vanish from the market or it can capture the market.It can also fall to $1800.But a good thing about bitcoin is that it recovers at a goos rate.Recently its price had fallen but it is recovering at a good pace.People have faith in bitcoin.That is why more and more people invest in bitcoin everday so as to earn profits.Bitcoin is the leading cryptocurrency and it gives us a huge profit margin.

Easy $40.000 by the end of the year. Just buy BTC now as it won't be cheaper and you will miss the train.

who will buy at 1 Bitcoin = $5,000 ?

Buyers at $15,000 are at loss of $5,000 now

I don't think so but its possible. But we cannot say that it will. We all know that the future is unpredictable. Its hard to say with a period. A lot of people regret about there decision making here in bitcoin there predictions always fail them.

Bitcoin crashed because professionals cashed out, making a buck from last-minute amateur investors  :o

The largest cryptocurrency bitcoin surged to $20,000 in December. Its rapid growth was due to common folk deciding to invest in the hope of making a quick buck. It was a time for professional investors to sell.

“Many people behind bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as a whole understand that the skyrocketing prices in the last few months are linked to a cash inflow from mass-market consumers. Even pensioners wanted to invest,” Georgy Verbitsky, managing director at eToro, Russia and the CIS, told RT.

Bitcoin hit $20,000 last month, breaking new records every day. But this week, a sell-off swept the cryptocurrency market, and bitcoin slid below $10,000 on Wednesday.

“Experienced investors knew that the bitcoin honeymoon couldn’t last forever. Those who catch the last train are usually punished by the market. Big-time miners and investors understood that they needed to diversify, that they had to get some fiat money.

https://www.rt.com/business (https://www.rt.com/business/416472-bitcoin-collapsed-because-professionals-cashed)

Bitcoin will be lower than 10000$ before end of this year and it will not go lower than 1800$.I think before end this year BTC will hit 25000$+

the future is so unpredictable a lot of the comment predictions could happen .that's why theres big profits to be made because of the risk .nothing is ever a sure thing.personally at the prices now, buying and holding is a smart investment .

You can buy a car for $12,000

There are expectations that say that bitcoin could reach at a Million dollar in couple of more years. In any case, those are what we called forecast. One can't state an expectation is sufficiently exact to be judge. You could return when the expressed year 2020 com and check the cost of bitcoin. Then again, the pattern in crypto these days is joined by utility utilize, much the same as the Ripple and Strat. That is the reason, forecast for that development could be genuine, however the cost could be flawed.

Bitcoin $800 by end of 2019  ;D

Bitcoin 1 cent to $20,000 in 10 years. I see Bitcoin at $400 in the end.

$1800 by the end of year 2018 is not imposible, bitcoin value is so volatile, it goes up and down. We dont know when it goes down it will reach $1800 or even lower. We just hope it wont come to that point.

Well with the current performance of bitcoin in the market i think it would end up much more higher than the expected value and we cannot even predict how much it would cost at the end of 2018.

I don't think so, bitcoin fell less than 10.000 USD but that doesn't mean that bitcoin will fall all over again and start from the bottom.
here is the mere fact, bitcoin fell because of the bad buildings from whales and people who want to get more bitcoin as bitcoin will have a fork sooner and will cause this coin to boost again more than 20.ooo USD. THATS REALITY!

i think its not accurate as long bitcoin have solid community. if price falling down, whale will buy more bitcoin, and after whale buying alot bitcoin i think the price will back to >$15k

Nope not accurate at all. No one can predict what would be bitcoin's value next month or by the end of this year. But in my own opinion, it will never go down that much. But everything on crypto is very unpredictable. We can guess how much it will cost tomorrow or even next year but that doesn't mean it can be that way.

I assure you that this will never happen because its simple value is quite high and can not be reduced so deeply. I believe that developers and publishers will not let this trait happen if they do not get bogged down or fall down.

Everything is just a prediction but no obe really knows.  I would say that a hindrance would be big market government’s banning crypto trading.  This could have a devastating effect on the price as you have seen with the S Korea scqre. 

Oh no. I think bitcoin will be around 30000 dollars at the end of the year. It will not fall down so law

What was Bitcoin price in 2010 ??

I will never believe it. To my mind, the greatest fall of BTC that could ever happen has taken place already – Bitcoin was less than $10 thousand. I think the lowest point of it for now might be $9K. I suppose that the King of crypto will gain a lot soon.

Oh no.
I think bitcoin will cost $ 40000. And it will increase in 2019. Thanks. ;D ;D ;D ;D

"OilCoin" new oil-backed & legally compliant cryptocurrency announced......

The first legally compliant digital currency based on a physical asset, OilCoin, was announced last month. Each token will reportedly represent the value of one barrel of oil.

Bitcoin money will go to "OilCoin"

We can't predict the cost atleast that low by the end of 2018.i can only see the major corrections happening at this juncture as some negative news abt crypto in the market. So I would advise that buying pressure is more now and we have to take advantage of that as an investor.

I don't really think that bitcoin will dip that low by the end of 2018. Why? There were many people up to know knowing and using this asset. And, there are so many predictions regarding bitcoin that it could go up to 100,000 USD each by the end of this year. It is actually possible. This January is just a dip in order to gather more gas to flew up to the moon.

Bitcoin never go to down.  it is go to up day by day

Accurate? No one knows, all of this is just speculation and if you treat it as friendly it will end up profitable and not chaotic as your tittle. Bitcoin price now is not as predictive compare last fourth quarter, but still highly predictive in long term, it can be accurate but I think the community will find it a good opportunity to buy and so make price pump again.

I dont believe it , my prediction is the price or the value of bitcoin in the end of 2018 is 20 to 30k , cause bitcoin is still rising we all know that bitcoin is unstable but it never go down something like that. And I hope that prediction won't come true.

1800$? Even with a lot of cryptocurrency bans and semi-regulations and stricter guidelines for ICOs sure it might fall once again during this year to below 10 000 but I feel like 10k is like milestone/barrier that would be extremely hard to fall under. Now sure Its price will fall again I mean that is inevitably going to happen however its likely to recover and if anything hit a new all time high by the end of 2018. Also new technology will be bitcoin Ex. Lightning network which will lower fees and solve a few problems bitcoin currently suffers from. I'm firm on it reaching a new all time high by the end of the year so firm I'm even willing to bet on it.

Never 8500$ ================>12500$  ;)

I think bitcoin will not drop to $ 1,800 by the end of this year, but bitcoin will rise further by the end of this year. I'm sure bitcoin will go up again, therefore we do not have to panic seeing bitcoin prices going down at this point.
falling bitcoin prices are often used by investors to buy bitcoin, so who wants to invest better buy bitcoin from now on.

It is now difficult to make predictions about the course of the cryptocurrency in the near future. And what will happen at the end of the year is impossible to predict.

Butcoin will never go this much less.As bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency into cryptoworld. nowdays all people want to invest into the cryptocurrency (BTC) beacause it give huge profits into Very less time.the suplly of btc is controlled therfore the btc demand will definitely increase in future.so it will achieve great success into future.i think it will cross upto the $30k at the end of 2018.

you say down $ 1,800 USD? WOW are you kidding me? it's so horrible it will make bitcoin players who have already bought bitcoin at $ 20k price will experience a very high pressure because losers and make people despair, I hope that will not happen I hope bitcoin will score the highest price record in this year .

what do you mean by the end of 2018 ? no way who told you ? no one can predict btc  price . if u have doubt please chek the support level of btc . dont be panic stay calm when price correction start its perfect time for buy .

I agree with you, because in gold the risk is minimal.
BUT still, if you invest in Bitcoin and it will grow in value thousands of times again. That's when the risk will pay off.

Theoretically, it is possible for the prices to dip by 80%. It has happened in the future, and it can happen in the future as well. But now the situation is quite different from the one which we had in 2014/15. It has become more difficult to manipulate the exchange rates.

Absolutelly  agree,  i  think this article is not actual in current situation.   bitcoin  already was lower than 10,000$  however is just  only  one step back befor 10 steps forward)

Never! market volume never allow BTC to fall to a low price. Since whenever bitcoin price is falling many people tend to buy it because they think it will grow up again.

I hope it's not just a dream or picture only .. but hope we all the bitcoin penguna if the price can bitcoin more than $ 1,800 USD at the end of 2018.

Cryptocurrencies are GIANT PONZIS scheme. All those coins, altcoin, dogecoin, oilcoin etc..

I never believe that bitcoin value was fall down into $1,800, because this coin are ready to raised up on the next month. Moreover I guess thru helps of the supporters of this coins their value are increasing this February 2018. I still believe that on the following weeks or months their price will recovered and raised up until reach the moon.

Good, I will buy more.

It will not go down to $1,800 by the end of 2018 as if we will base the charts from the past years, bitcoin is pumping before a year ends but it also starts to plummet after that year. But I'll correct you with the bold part, if you'll look at the charts there is an upside down movement so that means bitcoin isn't going up day by day. We can't avoid those days that bitcoin has to be down and the whole crypto people are affected and is followed by the altcoin market too.

it is hard to believe that bitcoin will down to $1,800 because there is a group or community that will hold the price to not dropped too far and there will be many people will sad and become anger. but the other people will buy massively the bitcoin so they could have a big amount of bitcoin and then they will wait until the price increase higher. no one know where the price will go and one thing that we only know, the price is always change from time to time and we could try to make a profit with this.

I got bad feeling when Bitcoin has been showing in futures before, when wall street people are welcoming for involved. Those bankers will making any statement's that most of them are FUD. Bitcoin has been stand by now with community support, all those people who using Bitcoin for short term trading are making this coins market getting worse.

past 10 years, Bitcoin price went up from $1 to $20,000. Buy bitcoin only in 2020 (if it survives the assault)

Silver is mostly likely to go back to $60/ounce. See "my Twitter link" for all the information  :)

What is bitcoint - a fork?

It will not happen, at least in nearest future.

Yes, this is just pure shit, the price is not going to drop below $1800 because it is almost impossible. Not even if there is a crash of 80% it will happen since it will be more than $2300, lmao.

It is very possible it can go down below  $10,000 but it will never go as low as $1,800 again. We all have seen that this cryptocurrencies is a good fighter. Many expect the last dump to push bitcoin down close to  $5,000 but the bull take the price back near  $13,000. I will love to see bitcoin go as high as $60,000 in 2018.

This sounds like a hopeful guess by someone who missed out on the big price move.  I beleive $18,000 is much more likely.

It will not happen. It may fall below 10k $ as recently, but a drop to the level of $ 1,800 seems very unlikely. The price increase is more possible.

What is the basis for having a $1800, at the end of the year 2018 it was already predicted that it will probably double or tripled in price compare to the price last year, may we encounter suffer from crashing the price down but it won't end the year with a negative outcome. This is a pioneer industry and for as long as other crypto currencies are rising bitcoin will surely rise as well as it is a solid currency.

IMO it's actually the opposite. The bankers using banker tactics is a good sign that BTC (and cryptos in general) is massive and is here to stay. Otherwise they wouldn't even bat an eyelid.

Agreed! There are likely chances that this prediction will be very much true. In fact, I really hope that the market value of bitcoin will go even higher than this much amount of money. The demand of bitcoin will be increasing with every passing day and this is something which plays a key role in changing the market value of any coin. Things will be in very much favor of the ones who are investing their money into bitcoin.

Is it true bitcoin will be $1.8K end this year? Speculation to such a low value for me is less logical. Therefore, condition of  bitcoin today's very different from the initial launch. Now bitcoin very popular where the number users is increasing from year to year. Even in my opinion, to touch value $10K very difficult.

For me it doesn't matter what the price of bitcoin will be in the end of 2018 as long as still has a value I say it will be always something worth investing for.

There is no basis for this prediction either. There is a much stronger bear case for bitcoin than a bull one, considering all of its major problems that make it unusable as a currency, and the ever-growing competition out there among alt coins that are solving its problems.

and Silver is $18/ounce and Gold is $1340/ounce. All the bullion news, live prices, updates and more at my twitter link

Well, that would happen if bitcoin is headed towards a bear market.
We all have to be aware that what goes up doesn't necessarily goes down, but COULD go down.

I think the saying is more regarding volatility in the market but not to suggest the price will crash. I think long long term it will be true, the price of everything in time will tend to 0 as there becomes no real use for it, but that could be decades, centuries are millenniums away.

I seriously love all of these predictions and IF we made a spreadsheet there would be one that comes true.. then we'll be calling that person the "Nostradamus of Bitcoin"..

Come on guys pick a number (or 50) and stick to it/them LOL..

Love speculation and numbers and the charts..  ::)

Bitcoin could hit to $1,800 USD is not accurate. This is another one analysis of those bitcoin critics. Another attempt to create fear among the cryptocurrency community. The bitcoin value right now is starting to stabilizes.

$1 to $100 in 5 years and people want more. Looks like a GIANT SCAM

Not. A. Chance.

This from a guy who is all in BCH, and thinks BTC *will* test ~$4100.

I think it would never happen because these price drops is just a part of bitcoin progress, so panicking people will be the one that lose their money and all the bitcoin loyalists will be the ones who will benefit if the price of bitcoin go high again. Yes we can say our own predictions but your prediction is not gonna happen in reality because I know bitcoin will rise up again together with the people who keep holding it.

it is not impossible but very very hard to say this,but in my opinion, by the end of this 1st quarter, bitcoin will go back to ath price and even more. People should not worry on this dip because it's just a signal that these whales are planning another pump and because they are smart, they dump it first.

Lol seriously 1.8k usd? Not going to happen anymore unless crypto itself gets banned by every country in the world. Too many people into btc now for it to go that low and everyone is already expecting a strong recovery and a strong finish later this year.

Well, no one knows if bitcoin may fall but $1,800 Idon't even think about it if may fall like that in the end of this year. Bitcoin is volatile but it's impossible to dump that price.

No you are wrong yven in your thoughts. Bitcoin is strongly supported by rich investors, and it will not fall so dramatically ever.

They could be RICH SCAMMERS

This! And they are even thinking BCH to the moon and bitcoin to the dip. Someone that wants to say that bitcoin will go down at the end of the year probably has all in to some other coins that they are trying to shilling and is giving wrong information about bitcoin.
We don't know what can possibly happen but no one is also thinking that bitcoin will go down to $1,800 but wait, there's a "T" on the title bitcoinT?

but it drops to $9,000 now?so you lose?anyway $1,800 is a impossible thing.this could even lower that bitcoin cash?no this cant be true,yes bitcoin will dunp but for sure not even close to $5000 as we are waiting for the lightning network to enlighten everything ..(hope so)

Neither by chance it will happen. Bitcoin for me is strong enough to have a price decrease as low as that. If that will happen, then would that mean that ethereum will exceed the value of bitcoin? I don't think so. And right, too many peope are in bitcoin now,they are investors that hope to have value increase so I believe that bitcoin will remain on top this year.

In my own opinion, I would still believe the prediction in which bitcoin will go up to $80, 000. Come may it come, both are still money. And if not, at least it won't be lower than $1, 800.

I do not think that it would be possible at all. It is extremely pessimistic prediction. A price increase is more likely than a drop to $ 1,800.

Panic selling of bitcoin is nothing but just a mistake that most of people use to do. Price and value of bitcoin is down but this time is for very short time in coming days price of bitcoin will grow and it will make bitcoin world famous. If we take a look at price of bitcoin in January then we will see that bitcoin has grown so high even when at start price of bitcoin was not so huge but with time as demand is increasing price is increasing so yes at the end of 2018 price of bitcoin will become very high again.

still imposible if bitcoin price down to 1800 dollar/bitcoin
my prediction bitcoin price can incraese very high in end year

Btc will hit 200-300k until the end of the year 2018!!!!
Guys buy while its cheap! Its 100% sure.
I was there when it was $50 so believe in it
Just believe i n it!!!
BR
G

How can you be hundred percent sue that it will touch 200 to 300k and that too by the end of this year,it is a really huge prediction and in order to see that kind of rally we need some big pockets to invest billions of dollars in bitcoin which i think is highly unlikely in a short span of time,it is possible in the long run,what happens after reaching those,we can agree to a point that i wont keep on rising all the time,there must a limit to every price growth,so where does it end. ;D

NO, it is a BIG, BIG and BIG No. the bitcoin will not suffer in $1,800.00 dollars since there perform excellent in the world trade market; aside from that there are lots of accountants and financial experts and the blockchain as well that the value of bitcoin will reach $20,000.00 before the year 2018 ends.

I'm pretty sure this will happen. Bitcoin failed as a payment system, people just need to realize it. But give it some time and it will go < $1800.  A year seems about right but it might be earlier.

Seriously you believe that??
I don't think that will ever happen. Bitcoin is on its peak now and has been greatly earned the trust of crypto investors and traders. There might just some internal issues for it to have swaying price but I strongly believe that it will go back with higher price.

Bitcoin will be below 1,800$ by the end of this month. Please take a look at the charts and stop kidding yourselves:

The bubble has burst, and the fundamentals for Bitcoin and all crypto assets were way, way, WAY overblown. There is only one direction from here: Down!

Do yourselves a service and sell all your crypto assets now while they're still worth anything.

It seems you were wrong, but in the facts, your point was great, Bitcoin can not go to 1800$ for the simple reason that there is not enough bitcoins in circulation to break all the support levels.

He is not the only one that has been wrong about this drop. I didn't see this coming too, I thought we will never see bitcoin under 10.000$ again, and judging by the people on this forum and their comments many of us felt the same, but bitcoin surprised us again. I think this is not the first or the last time, bitcoin will surprise us many more times. After bas surprise good surprise is coming, same as last year price went to 19.000$ this year or next one bitcoin can do much more, now we know that bitcoin can do that. I'm patient and I will wait for that rise, and in meanwhile I will do what I so all this years, earn, gamble, trade and have fun with crypto.

$100,000 by end of 2018, with a fall to $10,000 in 2019.

Get used to it.

This is the basic reason why cryptos hedged to real-world assets should be considered. This way their inherent worth is tied to the assets value. And the volatility can be greatly reduced.

So how you gonna tie this real world asset to the blockchain?  And how you gonna make that real world asset not change in price?

Bitcoin is it's own real world asset in that it is a public ledger... also the cost of mining follows the price which helps with seeding value

haha

haha love you noob investors hilarious. The only reason bitcoin is as high as it is is from tether printing fake money out of thin air driving the price up. it can't do that no more cause government has subpoena on it. so the price is falling back to where the price should be. I think if it sits around 1k to 2k that would be about right. But it it falls under 1k I wont be suprised. The market been manipulated up and now that tether can no longer do that the momentum swing is going to go down and fall hard. the more it goes down the more it will sell off. It should have a few swings up but continue its down trend rest of the year. Once the us government figures out whats going on with ttether and bitfinex i think the price will stabilize once we get info on a real audit on their situation.

You guys do realize the prices are where they are right now due to manipulation in the market. These are not real buyers of these cryptos. This is tether and bitfinex driving the prices way way up. And now they been caught by the US government. YOu guys should research some articles on it. The party is over. Its very dangerous time to own crypto and to actually try to price predict. Only invest in what you can afford.

It's happening.... Bitcoin will be $6,000 tomorrow.

Do you really believe that Bitcoin will fall again to $ 1,800? Of course I see that the price for Bitcoin today is in the area of ​​6000 dollars, but I hope that this will be the smallest figure this year.

This is something very new and it sounds to me the same strange as the prediction that Bitcoin will fall up to $1,800 by the end of this year. My bet is 15-20 K.

As fabiorem said, get used to it.

Too many predictions out there without any basis or analysis and just a random thought that came to the mind of the predictor. You can give any price at your cost since everyone is free to give their guess price. But this has been played by the well known people so they are using this against to the weak handlers who are causing the panic.

Bitcoin's market value is way unpredictable due to the volatility which includes the ups and downs on its price. If this thing is possible to happen,this is really scary. To think that it would it would bave a huge gap from its highest market price ladt year,surely, it will be hard for Bitcoin to recover. Let's just hope that things will be in favor with Bitcoin fin the remaining months of this year.

It is quite unlikely that we are going to see such a low price not only at the end of 2018 but ever, I know that there are many people that are a little bit mad that they could not bought bitcoin when it was really cheap but it was your fault bitcoin gave you a lot of time to buy it, if you did not took advantage of the opportunity then that is on you.

I have to disagree with this. $1800 at the end of the year is almost impossible. In the statement its said, when this happens the cryptocurrency market probably drop to 70% making it $200B cap. Right now we're below $300B and btc price still in between $6000 - $7000.

Actually no one is certain on claims price to hit $1800 end of this year. Yes it happens before those who regret of not buying at cheaper rate. But since price did'nt hit at peak a good chance for us to invest in bitcoin. Moreover, price may impossible to be $1800 end of 2018.

Now selling begins at $8,000 from investors and hoarders/rich gamblers panic sell at $10,000. Bitcoin had reached $5,900 in March 2018

Ha I find it funny that people thought Bitcoin would lose ALL of its May - December boom. Granted I thought there was no way it'd ever go under $10k again, so I was wrong in the opposite way. The crash just took out the mania phase of the price increase which started around beginning of November after futures were announced because everyone thought that meant Wall St money was gonna come flooding into Bitcoin. When futures were a non-event and nothing happened with Wall St money the price collapsed back down to before the futures pump occurred, which was around $6000 - where it was at it late October. The buy support would be so insane under $5000 any selling no matter how massive would immediately get eaten up by everyone who came into the market last year. I was very wrong about how low Bitcoin could dip on a crash, I thought we'd just have a month long crash down to $12k or so similar to the June/July and September crashes, and boy was I wrong, but all the people sure Bitcoin was heading back to the $1000-$3000 range are just hilarious. But hey it's hard to predict how low a crash will be, though at least by now we should know 90% crashes aren't gonna happen.

At this point we can be 99% sure we'll never see <$8000 again. And within a couple months we'll likely leave sub-$10k prices behind forever.

There are some chances for that to happen , but my friend , they are really small. So small that its almost imposible for bitcoin to reach such a small value. I mean he could actually reach this value , but not this year . Thisa year he will grew up a lot and maybe he will beat  his hight score value and reach more then 20k $

Things can happen, but if you look at current trends it seems that the price will continue to skyrocket, the proof is that the price has now reached $ 9900 and I'm sure tomorrow or the price has reached $ 10,000 and the end of the year is very likely to reach $ 25,0000 and very small if the price drop up to $ 1800.

This is probably one of the lowest prediction by the end of the year I have read while more have been predicted it as sky rocket by the end of 2018. When we say accurate, it means they are sure it will happen. As if there is prediction that is really sure. For me all of them are 50/50 simply because we can't see the future.

Right. Though from probability, i think those predicting the value to rise rather than decline to that low is much closer to reality. I mean there would have to be a really huge fud or probably ban by the us or japan for bitcoin to go that low

That's something that is way far from my imagination and not even close to reality. Bitcoin has fallen about 3 times this year but it never fall down 5K$ and below and now, bitcoin has risen to more than 3K$ since it got its lowest price at 6K$.

This prediction is clearly different from most predictions in bitcoin users, the majority of users actually predict that bitcoin prices will repeat history like last year where prices skyrocketed at the end of the year. some even argue that prices will be higher than next year. we can not ascertain the future but the likelihood is great because of the development of bitcoin

The report was old. It was on 11th of Jan. I think they had predicted the crash at that time. But Bitcoin has recovered well from that crash. And it does not take too long to change any situation in the crypto market. So after the 5 months, the situation is completely new and the report has no significance at the moment. 

I don't think that Bitcoin will fall any further because we are done with the correction process and now it is time to get the momentum towards growth. There are some investors waiting outside for a perfect opportunity so even if panic sellers are increasing the supply in the market, we will see new money coming in Bitcoin resulting in a price stability or growth. However, it is less likely to happen because we have gained enough Momentum in the last year and I believe that the same momentum will continue in 2018 too.

Nope that's impossible, bitcoin will never go down at $1,800 by the end of this year, as of now the bitcoin price is starting to recover it will reach highest price, I'll be glad if bitcoin reach $30,000 this year.

Yes that is right that most of the bitcoin users and investors are expecting the bitcoin price to repeat the history, in fact this time they are expecting that the bitcoin price will this time hit 300000$ in next few months and therefore they are not going to sell their bitcoin but trying their best to buy more and more, as they are sure about bitcoin price to increase too much in near future.

I agree because I think a lot of people knows bitcoin since wanna cry virus spread all over the world, and also it will repeat the history, therefore many people are competing to buy bitcoin with cheap price. based on my analysis https://www.tradingview.com/x/74zsHQWi/ bitcoin will sideways for a while before making new all-time high soon

What??? Highly dubious and too far-fetched to happen. I very much doubt it that anything like that will happen. I particularly would like to see bitcoins value in an upward trend by the end of this year. I do feel that it seemed likely to hit $20k or more.

That's spelling doom for the whole crypto market and would not go down well with many enthusiasts. But should that happen, it won't really be the end for cryptocurrencies, as many projects have eyes set on the bigger picture and are refining the concept of blockchain. So even if bitcoin should fail it may only affect the trading aspects of cryptocurrencies, but the integral concept should still remain intact.

There are too many big money players for bitcoin to drop that low. They won’t let it happen.

I think its impossible to happen that situation it depends if someone whales have big manipulation in market and they can crash the market. But for me it's impossible because all users of bitcoin will not let that happen.

Bing says it will ban Crypto-Related Ads By July 2018

Microsoft-powered search engine Bing has joined other internet giants in announcing it will ban cryptocurrency-related advertisements on its network by July 2018, according to an official blog post today, May 15. According to the statement, the main reason for the company’s decision to ban “advertising for cryptocurrency” and “cryptocurrency related products” is the current unregulated status of cryptocurrencies, which allegedly increases risk for Bing’s users: “Because cryptocurrency and related products are not regulated, we have found them to present a possible elevated risk to our users with the potential for bad actors to participate in predatory behaviors, or otherwise scam consumers.”

As the report further says, Bing Ads tool plans to fully implement the ban worldwide between June until early July.Bing’s crypto ads ban is the latest move in a search engine and social media crypto-boycott, initiated by Facebook in late January of this year. Google announced an analogous crypto ad ban in mid-March, and Twitter confirmed its own ban soon after.

Last week, multiple mainstream media outlets reported that Facebook is reportedly “exploring” the launch of its own cryptocurrency.

https://cointelegraph.com/news (https://cointelegraph.com/news/microsofts-search-engine-bing-says-it-will-ban-crypto-related-ads-by-july-2018)

What it has acquired over the years in terms of user base as well the growth in terms of value is purely a stabilized one. By this time the market getting collapsed to such a level lower than the $2000 is simply impossible. Same time the market is out of control from any external sources, so things might change anytime without prior indication. Let's hope the best happens.

Absolutely impossible. BTC hasn't been that volatile for more than 2 years now, so it will never get back

once again we are seeing bing want to ban cryptocurrency like what google did. but I don't think it will make cryptocurrency stop to grow because for now, cryptocurrency become more popular and it will grow more in this year. many companies want to ban cryptocurrency and people still searching about cryptocurrency itself and I think people will find what they want related with cryptocurrency with or without a big search engine. I am sure that people can search on other websites.

In all honesty I think it wouldn't ever touch sub-$3k anymore. Not unless a major security flaw is discovered or another big, established exchange gets hacked and falls, think about CoinBase, if they ever succumb to a hacking incident there's gonna be major trust issues on BTCBTCBTC.

Many have said that price will peak at the end of the year, but it doesn't mean I really believe on that, but I'm more inclined to that's statement, bitcoin will still keep climbing slowly until the end of the year till it can be at the higher price, well it's like last year in particular, I'm still considering it.
So from me personally., I'm more thinking that it seems impossible.

Price of the bitcoin as of now is $8300 and I think it will increase again the price and back to 10k dollars next week  or for sure this month and I don't think the reason become the price very low like 1800 before end of this year 2018 because even the price decreasing they have support bitcoin will come and new investor will invest.

I don't think this this is going to happen soon. It is right that it is possible that bitcoin can reach a low point but I think, not to the point that it will reach 1,800USD. Well, I think the safest price is not below 5000USD.
But if ever that this will really happen, well that should mean a higher pull of price after some time.

Now Bangladesh has banned Bitcoin

Actually all can say their statement about what bitcoin could hit this ends of 2018. No proof has been shown but I don't think btc can go down low. Were expecting price this year could growing high but let's face the fact price is very unpredictable.

Gold is sold to ordinary people in bullion? Or in what form do you offer them to buy?

the future is so unpredictable a lot of the comment predictions could happen. that's why theres big profits to be made because of the risk. nothing is ever a sure thing.

Gold and Silver are Bullion.

Pure and certified Gold and Silver coins and bars (all kinds and ounces) from top bullion dealers. PM me.

That's only a speculation but it seems to me that it's very impossible to be realized. Just take a look at the graph of bitcoin in the last 4 months and see how many times bitcoin has fallen down to 6,000$ mark but it didn't went deeper down that mark anymore and to think that it will go down to 1,800$ is never going to happen.

I agree there was a huge wall at 6k so I dont think it will pass below that  , nothing is certain of course but looking at the chart as you said it is just impossible to happen .Many said that bitcoin will be dead however it still manahe to survive , There so much potential and bitcoin so let us just wait and we will see an uptrend in the near future.

It does not make sense if bitcoins fall to $ 1,800 by year's end. For now bitcoin is a strong crypto coin, so bitcoin will never fall for $ 1,800 this year.

Is obvious that such a prediction is not going to come true, it is impossible for the price of bitcoin to go that low by the end of 2018, but I really think that it is also impossible for the price to skyrocket before that date, I understand why people predict that, they want the price of bitcoin to go back to its previous all time high but I do not see a reason for that to happen either.

Anyone who claims to know the future is lying. This is something you should learn as a child.

Op, there is no accuracy in all this makeup as no one can be optimistic in his or her speculation in crypto currency market. But one cannot role out this speculation completely since any thing can happen in crypto currency.

bangladesh low bitcoin user and low market
so not big effect to bitcoin price

Make no mistake, that's how FUD counts, FUD spreaders always feel right with his mathematical formulas, he does not care even though his calculations are not correct, because for them is 1 + 1 = PANIK SALES.

I think its not accurate news  or article because we all know bitcoin will not going dip like 1800$. Don't give any fud news because it may cause another panic selling so the market will drop again.

The future can't be precisely predicted Crypto users are getting more and more difficult to determine the market value,I strongly agree with you that anyone who describes the value of BTC in the future is a lying maybe occasionally appropriate but not always appropriate.

If you buy 1 Bitcoin for $5,000 you will get 100% profit when Bitcoin reaches $10,000. Dream run is over.

I've also read this american survey, but you have to understand that $1800 is minimal price based on the costs for mining. So it can't cost less, mining is getting more expensive. But we also know that the rate of BTC is very much depends on subjective factors, like mood, news, trends, speculations and so on.

Once more regulations are in place a lot of this should change so the impact shouldn't be too severe overall

Excerpt: It is to be seen when greater clarity will be provided on the key issue of what constitutes a security and what impact that will have for “utility tokens.”

https://hackernoon.com/cryptocurrency-regulation-update-may-2018-4a16a189f2ba

5000$ for BTC is a real nightmare for me, what $1800 are u talking about? That would mean total collapse of cryprocurrencies, as people still makes it even between BTC and other altcoins.

I think this is crazy speculation, I think Bitcoin will not go down until $ 1800, by the end of 2018 it seems there already will increase the price of bitcoin again one of the following news:

https://www.newsbtc.com/2018/05/25/japanese-fintech-startup-launch-crypto-exchange-2018/

I guess, mining alone is about to cost more in a couple of years. How did they even count that? Bitcoin's price has always been determimed not objectively, with many factors affecting it, like speculations and dumps.
For example, this ugly news can affect the price in a bad way

In my own opinion the bitcoin price before the end of this year, it will never fall to $1,800 if you see yesterday the bitcoin price is over $7,500 but within a few hours it's up again at the amount of $8,000. So I can not say that the bitcoin price might fall to $1,800, no one knows the bitcoin price moves and no one can predict on it. So I just advise you not to panic selling because it also affects the collapse of bitcoin prices,it seems like you are also dropping the price of bitcoin, think of it if all of you buy or invest in bitcoin the stocks and demand in the market increases as well and the price of bitcoin too.

$ 1800? it's not possible, even bitcoin prices will not fall below $ 7k

5k in june
3k in augest

$2000 in December 2018

Watever you have told its so ridiculous. people would like to choice bitcoin as the reason is that bitcoin price raises so fast
& bitcoin gives us a golden opportunity to make a goodd income from it and So BItcoin Price is Now Around 8000$ form 2$ which is so incredible. At The end of this 2018, BitCoin Will Rise around upto 10k$ and if will go down then 3000$ Is strong Resistance for it. thank you

Even if that happens, it would be only for a moment, as it would create a sudden surge in demand which will increase the prices almost instantaneously.

It is a market game and you can never be so sure about the prices so much. The price speculation is a tough thing and even the Keynesians failed in the theory of Misperception. One important thing I would love to mention is that before the fall in process, there will be a sharp rise in the values as well which will compensate people for the coming loss.

a drop till 1800 usd changes so many things in crypto market. probably many altcoins can not stay alive. and miners stop due to low profits.

No. No one can accurately predict how much or what will be exactly to happen that is doesn't done yet. That was to much low but any amount is possible we have only the guts to risk money and everything here in crypto.
In studies and analyst predict that it is conversly proportional to that. They predict bitcoins will double its price well, then wait and see who is right.

Just as it did a few years ago when prices surprisingly dropped to nearly $100. but it only happens in a few minutes. because it creates a huge demand then the price goes back up. but I myself predict the price will not go down that horrible dude. I think it might just be that price changes will happen like last year

I prefer to believed Bitcoin speculation will reach $100,000  for this year than it will reach as low as $1,800 because there is no specific details on how Bitcoin will dump to that value. Most of the famous experts in crypto predicted that the Bitcoin will rise up before this year end so therefore except if there is unexpected catastrophes that will happen like world war III or end of the world then possible Bitcoin will be at worst at $0 value.

on what basis do you say the price will reach as you mentioned it?

do you just want to add post only? because I see you are speculating without a clear foundation.

We are in Speculation branch at first and everybody here  is speculating. As for foundation -  Bitcon has not traded below the 50-week MA since October 2015. So we are in strong downtrend.

The former chief executive of PayPal has slammed bitcoin as the "greatest scam in history" and a "colossal pump-and-dump scheme".Writing for technology website Recode, Bill Harris said he was tired of describing the cryptocurrency as "speculative", "gambling" or even a "bubble". "Okay, I'll say it: bitcoin is a scam," he said.

"In a pump-and-dump game, promoters 'pump' up the price of a security creating a speculative frenzy, then 'dump' some of their holdings at artificially high prices. And some cryptocurrencies are pure frauds. Ernst & Young estimates that 10 per cent of the money raised for initial coin offerings [ICOs] has been stolen."Harris joins a long list of crypto-naysayers from the traditional financial community, including real-life Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort, who has also described cryptocurrencies as "pump-and-dump" schemes.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business (https://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=12039408)

Today, it costs U$1,359.20, per year, to mine 0.1008 BTC (also per year).

So one bitcoin costs around U$13k. This is the current mining cost.

Since the market price is nearly half of it, I guess the mining pools are dumping their new coins to cover the costs. We dont know how long this situation will last.

Could be the opposite of your opinion that miners will be more diligent than ever cause they be very convinced that BTC will recover sometime if that value can go droped 1800,I think it will not be possible as a reality cause there must be people who always raise value.

No one can predict an accurate price of bitcoin. So I do not think bitcoin price will go to $1800 this year ends. That's true most predictions even experts saying price of btc can grow high than last year. I am just into positive bitcoin will not go down instead will be increase this year ends.

I think with the current trend of bitcoin pricing in the market which is currently in a "trap". It can't even go above $10k and always fluctuating around $7k-9k. I assume the pricing would pick up again starting Q3 of this year. Same as last year where the demand suddenly spikes up and pricing went wild. Therefore, I believe bitcoin will not be $1800 by the end of 2018. The pricing could be around $15-35K depending on the current demand and direct fiat conversions.

I think the price of Bitcoin by the end of this year will be bigger than you predict. Bitcoin can definitely achieve a very high value by the end of this year. Can be many times over last year. I'm sure of that.

Bitcoin will go below $6,000 for the second time now. Heading towards $2,000

A big chances could happen in bitcoin so I think it can reach higher than last atm. Many speculation about bitcoin this year also we do not know what exactly gonna happen.

It is impossible for bitcoin to go below 6000USD and then you talk about 2000USD. Bitcoin is a well developed currency and we can’t match any other currency with this because it is far better from all of them. The demand of bitcoin is rising day by day so I think this will greatly increase its price rather than decreasing it. I think the future of bitcoin is bright and its price will increase in future, not to be decreases.

Bitcoin goes to $7000 and comes back to $6000. Bitcoin $1800 by end of 2018 looks coming....

In this Cryptocurrencies market everything is possible, one day prices could shoot up, and in second day price could go very low but $1800 seem really to low. I don't think it'll go under $6k for now but panic sellers are ruining the market right now so it may break that wall. But there is very small chance of that.

The price of bitcoin is currently in a fairly stable range. I am quite optimistic that the price of bitcoin can survive and will not decrease to 6,000USD. Bitcoin still has the power to survive, current market conditions are beyond expectations and make a little chaos. but see that bitcoin is now the only coin that has not decreased dramatically compared to other coins. this can be a positive value and increase our optimism for the power possessed by bitcoin.

I don't believe bitcoin will be able to fall $ 1,800 this year. Bitcoin is still strong enough and will be able to survive, and will not fall as low as that.

It looks like there is too much support at the 6k level for this to happen.  The only way this is possible if Satoshi wakes up and decides to dump his 1 million bitcoins.

$ 1800 for bitcoin is impossible people are not so stupid that would sell it so cheap ! Although now it shows a bearish trend the price will still fall but soon there will come a time when the trend will change. I think that maybe we will see for the price of 4000-5000 but in my opinion it is unlikely to fall below.
