The forecast for the end of the year that Bitcoin will reach $ 29,000, and Ethereum's capitalization will triple. The Finder site conducted a study based on the growth of 12 digital currencies and the comparison of 9 participants in the industry's blockbuster. According to their forecast, the growth of ETH will be 212%, BTC - 194%, and the third place Bitcoin Cash with 123%.
Kevin Lou, co-founder and strategy director for the Hong Kong company CryptAM, said that Ethereum has very good growth prospects, but at the moment the network needs to solve the problem of scaling. CryptoKitties, a game with digital kittens that allows you to acquire and breed crypto pets - something that hinders the development of the ETH network. In the near future this issue will be resolved.

Can you give the link where you read or heard the speculation theory of yours?
If I could only review that myself I could adjust my trading strategy.

P.S Your post O.P don't have a specific date so I infer this as only hypothetical claims.  

The link will be useful.
And why they have forecast for such a low price? Just 29000$ at the end of 2018. I think that's on purpose to fool the people and earn money with this forecast, which I think is not something that will have a huge impact on investors decisions.

this is very important info for traders. if you can provide a link for us to read, this can be one important info we can review and we learn to step perragang, but because this info comes from a newbie, we can not directly trust this speculation but I myself hope this will be real

I don't believe in ethereum that can be triple its value in the end of this year. I think it is more likely possible to happen in bitcoin, but not in ethereum.

Bitcoin cash is gaining value if the price of bitcoin is growing.

Well if you can provide a proof where you read this maybe, I could believe you about ethereum.

There are many potential altcoin these days that can be possible to take ethereum position.

Thanks bro. At least their a breath of change here. Lol. Lately there's a lot of thread saying that bitcoin is dying a lot of doomsayers. However, I just wanted to point up that you need to share us the link so that we can analyze the predictions.

Also, it looks like Kevin Lou is bullish on crypto because obviously he need to. He is a co-founder of a company which is deals with crypto portfolio. Of course he will preach and say good things about the price movement so that he can attract potential customers.

Link to an article with any type of evidence or research to support such a claim?

Link to the quote [but you could have find it yourself by googling the part of the quoted text, duh!]

Anyone can predict Bitcoin price for this year but what would happen is, Bitcoin would reach double the price predicted by experts. There is possibility that Bitcoin would reach $60k this year end and what the survey provides is very less. I think this survey price of Bitcoin would be reached in June itself and high price to come in November or December.

I will be happy if that prediction comes true. :D

But today is another red day for the bitcoin the price is dumping again more and falling below $8800,I hope soon it will recover from this dump and will reach that $30K by end of 2018.

I will believe OP only if he assures us that he will eat his own penis on national television if it doesn't happen.  8)

Well look. Forecasts will remain forecasts until proven.

Doesn't mean much because anyone can come out with different predictions on where the price will go by the end of the year, without any proof or analysis. Even if there is analysis, there is no way of guaranteeing that the trend will actually continue or reverse by the end of the year and reach a certain figure.

With this prediction i think that it's very bold.

I don't think that it's likely to come true however. $29k would mean an all time high and I don't see it happening this year. We'll be stuck in around $5k-$15k this year mostly, with little movement upwards or downwards from those two points.

wait for another 4 years ,it will be only $29000,it will be $100000.it is just a matter of time.

Most of them won’t wait even a month, they have lesser imaginative recognition for future profit. They wanted to be a millionaire within a week and starting panicking and selling with a decrease of 1%. Funny right, but  totally annoying. If they don’t have the courage to risk then they should not invest in crypto and instead in the stock market.

Exactly. Probably same people who suddenly becomes noisy with doomsday predictions once btc starts to dip. I've been dealing with btc for more than three years and have observed the market so what's happening now has already happened a lot of times before and btc has provem wrong all these negative predictions

Actually, I'm pretty sure that bitcoin will reach more than 29k in this year, despite that there is a big crisis in the market and the current price of bitcoin is just 9k. As well, I believe that bitcoin will become stronger than before, just few weeks or months and the price of bitcoin will rise in a fast way because it is certain that this big drop is temporary.
As a matter of fact, for me, I think that there will be many changes in the middle of this year. so may be the value of bitcoin will reach more than 25K and at the end of this year, it will become close to 40K.

I believe on what youve said and i have faith in bitcoin that it will recover by next month going toward the new ath. Just hold your coins and wait for long ride of bull run.

We can really see a dip on the value of bitcoin but we are still on the month or march the possibility that we can see the $29,000 is very high indeed, And this dip might be from the panic sellers or the whales manipulation so they can bought for a cheaper price, But as I said we are only at the first week of march so the possibility of getting the $29,000 this year is very high.

$30k is the realistic price prediction for bitcoin this year. Even charts are pointing in that direction. Added to that the money inflow in cryptocurrencies can only support a trillion marketcap. Since, the bigger institution have already jumped in the market, I expect more manipulation ahead and hence the growth will not be insane as was in 2017 that is almost 20x. A decent growth of 2x-3x is expected this year.

sometimes experts in each of these virtual currencies are always predicting price increases with the coins they enjoy, but to date have not been proven, and any coin that will be the highest ranking in the market is set by the investors. (how many users of the coin). This will rank the highest in the market itself.

I’m skeptical of some of these sites. I don’t know this particular one but I know some of them just look at the average rate of growth and project forward. The problem with this approach is that there maybe things that make the growth vary such as new developments or adoption on a new exchange. A partnership could affect the price or a change in government regulations can have a dramatic affect on price.

Well if the price of bitcoin tripled by the end of the year is very likely that ethereum will be close in fact is more likely that ethereum outperforms bitcoin since it has a lower market and that gives to it more chances to grow, this is similar to what's happened the last year bitcoin grew many times over but if I remember correctly ethereum grew even more at the end of the previous year.

Ethereum has been a big help and one of the reason why bitcoin was going up, they compliment each other because of this. There is a prediction that ETH could be $6k by the end of the year that is why it is better to invest right now with these two coins before it reached the hit price this year.

Believe it or not but I also think its gonna happen, its a matter of time don’t rush things and of course this is just a speculation don’t take it seriously better to have your own analysis. Despite of so many dumps in the past months, the only way for bitcoin is to go up.

So many speculation about bitcoin some it can go further more than $29k. Price of bitcoin can go high maybe this mid of the year onwards, these past months we already seen of downtrend. So a big possibility in bitcoin that could go reach more than that price.

Although Ethereum does not show such a great growth, I can also admit that finally, it will go to the Moon. Bitcoin can really reach 29 thousand or even more.

No one knows their future. Perhaps there will be a tendency to absorb small large coins. It is easy to show more significant results. I can't deny any scenario. But I know for sure that the world of cryptocurrencies will develop and we are waiting for a lot of interesting things.

Precisely, they must learn more from the experience member of this forum like you sir. I’m also new here, but I keep myself busy reading and analysing how bitcoin works and strategies in every increases and decreases happening in the market. What we experienced in the past either bad or good will surely help us decide for the future.

I can't wait for that price to happen, I am sure that it will happen in the next coming months, at the second quarter so what we should do right now is just don't watch the price trend make move so w will all gonna earn after this dump.

If you are going to invest this seems like the best opportunity do it if you want to make a significant amount of money, ETH is barely above 500 which is a ridiculously low price for the second best coin we have, so if you are really sure of your prediction then this could be the moment to put it all in and go for it, I'm not so sure ETH is going to reach the price you predict but I know it's going to grow in the next months.
