Arriving as it waits for the $ 10,000 mark at the end of March, I think we will go as far back as possible to achieve hope in 2018. What do you think about this situation?

I hope so. This wont continue like this. Its been almost 2 months since the dip and it hard for it to recover. Last year was a really unexpected growth of all digital assets, maybe we can see that again this year or maybe in the next few years.

I think we are just going to enter bull markets after very long lasting and painful bear market that ruled us for 3 months or something. After that I expect bitcoin to return back at $15000 level and minimum.

Yes I feel the same I think we are again going to enter the bull market and can expect the bitcoin market to be at least $15k and it's high time we hold on to our bitcoin and not sell it out.

hope, luck,... what the hell are you talking about?
this here is a dynamic market which is going up and down based on market dynamics. there is no luck or hope involved and it won't "go back to give you hope"! what does that even mean?

we had some drops like ALWAYS, and it is because of the big price rise which ended with a bubble and then followed by a lot of FUD and panic sells by the weak hands. it was not luck that dropped the price!
and now that we are getting rid of all the weak hands by flushing them out, everything is going back to normal slowly and the rises are starting to become more solid with a better buy support. and again it is not luck that this is happening!

Bitcoin was trending around $1200 last year same period and reached close to $20000 which is almost x20 times the profit.

Currently Bitcoin is trending between $9000 to $10000 which is a health sign and it never went down below $7000 in 2018. There are many reasons for the dip and one of the reason is correction. If we assume Bitcoin to reach at least half of the target achieved last week like x10 then Bitcoin will surely hit around $80k as per my prediction.

no one knows that problem bro! but, if true $ 10,000 mark at the end of March occurs we will be able to expect the price at the number $ 15k - $ 17k in april next. in the world of cryptocurrency the problem of luck is indeed important. but, more importantly is our strategy problem for the future. whether we are strong enough to hold it or not, Take it easy something good will definitely happen in 2018.

Yes sitting around $9,000 presently, after a low this month of $7,500 and the dip last month to $6,200 which was a fall of 70% from its ATH in December. My understanding is there’s a lot of mainstream institutional and otter smart money waiting to come into the market once it’s believed the bottom of this crash has been reached, and the consensus before the crash was that about $8,000 would be close to the bottom and a good time to buy in - and I think we’ve seen good support for bitcoin around this level.

Once that smart money does start coming into the market the price should start increasing steadily which will draw in new investors as well with FOMO. That should send the price back up to $15,000 and then the ATH of $19,000 will be tested. Whether that happens in May/June as many think or in an October to December rally as in previous years is unknown, but yes I believe it will happen sooner or later and never hurts to have luck on your side!

You think 3 months is very long? Currently there is no indication of the end of the bear market, it may easily last for the whole 2018.

I think everything will be good after that. because, while we are waiting for 100k in 2018, but we can't even reach 10k. It should start somewhere and be better.

Reaching 10,000$ or, as some say 10,300$ is not easy barrier to pass, many want to sell at those levels.
But we need patience. The direction is upwards again, and as soon as those sellers get depleted, we'll reach that too.
Slow growth is better. You've seen what happens at the end of exponential growth... So, again, we need patience.

Right now is what I can say "lucky" in terms of the situation Bitcoin is in as we have the opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a cheap price, especially the late comers who wants to board the train can enjoy the cheap price. People who only consider this as unlucky are the ones who didn't jump off or they have jump late from the ship amd now experiencing holding Bitcoin at a loss. So I am agreeing with you that are luck is just at the beginning we just need to be patient about it.

This is not a permanent situation so we don't worried about this situation still all are believe this coin. Because everyone know the potential of Bitcoin it will reach 30k USD or more in this year end. Many countries are implementing the legalisation of Bitcoin in this year so we should expect everything in cryptocurrency.

very few get profit in 2018 because of falling prices and strikes. very much hope for the end of this month so that prices can skyrocket to the moon and this may be a very waiting in this year, even so we still have to be careful for the fall in prices that may happen again

What do you understand by the term legalization? If you hope that governments of different countries will allow turnover of bitcoins in trade then you are mistaken. It's never gonna happen. The maximum that the government will allow it to officially pay a tax on the exchange of bitcoins to Fiat. Would that make a difference?

That's what other's most common misconception, bitcoin being able to take over cash in trades. I think governments would also allow people to use bitcoin as an alternative payment method like how people use credit cards. People paying tax on the exchange of bitcoins to fiat makes a real difference as it can help make adoption rate go up massively(since it would be well known if news of btc's legalization spreads).

We are all speculating so think the way you want. Right now it's hard to see bitcoin getting back again to $10,000 and it's one of the challenges that it has to face.
Sadly you are right, we can't even get close to $10,000 and others are even speculating $100,000 for this year or we are just hasty?

Well, I think we all must to have a little common sense. Praying, hoping and this kind of feelings are not related to the economy, as well as luck. Bitcoin is not in a bad position right now: it is being accepted by more and more people and used as a payment system in more and more business. Even so, the price is still high in comparison with the same period last year. The problem is people looking back at the last December under the thoughts of normality. No, it wasn't "normal", it was, definitely, a bubble, and, like all bubbles, eventually exploded.
Now, btc price is expected to rise a little, step by step, as more and more people begin to use it and the miners find more and more difficult to generate more. Its normal behavior would be to rise slowly, but confident, with some downs of minor importance. It should be the normal progress of such a kind of valuable stuff. No god no lucky is related to it, but the normal behavior of a healthy market.

Current market situation is a push and pull between bears and bulls with neither having the upper hand. But having all these positive hints towards cryptos in the G20 summit seem to be a perfect match for a slight upward push just like what the price is exhibiting right now, though I still doubt whether we can get past $10000--let alone $9500--given that the blunders of the Gox trustee still affects the market as of late. We've already retested $7k and apparently, the price made some careful rebounds from there, but that doesn't mean that the bull's strength is reinvigorated and ready to make another crazy run. It would be a stagnant March as I see it.

Bitcoin has entered a new phase, a round that will deliver bitcoin on the road of glory as it did in 2017. But this bitcoin trip will be a little slower. Because China doesn't support bitcoin anymore and China only supports their single coin 'the Neo'.

The phase is currently mixing in the air meaning we can actively seen the action by between bears and bulls on quiet equal phase. Ups or downs, the price is swinging on a roller coaster.

It's good to see that we are in the phase like this since we can see how well the resistance at the price support level we are considering as "strong point". Now from here, no one knows when will the massive uptrend will happened so better be ready on what will happened.

Is this kind of price behaviour will now trigger the start of the crazy pump? Let's see then.

yes, this new phase and round is a good start for bitcoin. even though visible is slow. but, in my opinion bitcoin will go right fix something that happens this without chinese support. we can only Look forward to will be the best.

for me this situation is just a temporary due to some whales that always manipulate the price after the bounce. . So much better to sell it right away and don't assume that the price will continue to grown because of that factor and accept the fact it will swing back to cheap price. See what's happening to the price now it seems to decrease more which is after the price reach 9k. 

As much as wanted to see Bitcoin go up in price, I think it won't reach 10,000 dollar mark at the end of March.  There are still some sign of bearish bitcoin and it will take sometime to change the phase to Bullish.  And there is not much hype produce by the good news regarding bitcoin.  I guess we have to wait another month for this.

Price might soon get surge because price is undervalued for really long time and panic seems to be getting over from the market. If you will not sell your coins than you will not loss anything, the one who will sell being panic will never make any profit with bitcoin or crypto trading.

Stepping to the extent possible in a direction that tends to be higher, looks like stuck by the time that affects to the price more stuck and slowed. Well anyhow despite the many predictions said that it will go much higher in mid to the end of March, it proves to be really not certainty with what is predicted given the many things that affect it.
The price may be if it can hit $10k in this month.. it might be more stepping away and heading to the altitude, but in reality.. it's stuck. But anyway this is still 8 days left from now to reach the end of maret, let see it will going up to $10k or no, i think it's a bit difficult.

You only think the current price is cheap because you use the all time high peak of last year as benchmark. It only reached that high because of the hype and speculation, and these factors aren't sustainable, especially with how the hype has faded completely. If we look at the market right now, the demand, progress, the price is exactly where it should be.

In other words, current price not undervalued at all. This ecosystem also proves that it is not ready to stand where it stands right now, because of how incompetent/crippled exchanges are. Before people start to complain about current levels that they are low or boring, keep one thing in mind, be careful with what you guys wish for. I remember how people complained about the same thing when the price was hovering around $14,000. Why doesn't the price go up anymore? Why doesn't the price show any action? And so forth. After that they got their action; $14,000>$12,000>$10,000>$8000>$6000. People should appreciete the current levels instead of complaining. Regardless of how "low" the current prices may seem to people, they can always go lower in the short term.

Well let's hope this end of march of 2018 is the beginning of a luck for all of us. Since we endure this down market more claims it's not forever, it just a temporary of being fall it's price. Soon it will realized to push in bullish trends though it's hard to swing up but let's see and observe the market for a while.

Many bitcoin holders,hold their coin for this reason.Now the positive impact about bitcoin is increased,so we can expect the huge price in bitcoin now.I hope the price of bitcoin will increases to 10,000$ by this end of March.Just hold your coin till the end of this month,to get some profit.

something you have very small requests, because other participants in other topics predict a huge increase in bitcoin to 35,000 dollars. I certainly do not believe this much, but nevertheless it raises the spirit of all users of crypto currency.

We started at the wrong feet and we seems to be having a hard time trying to get up. And with the Mt. Gox trustee keeps dumping when we are enjoying a good run before, I think we need more positive news to be able to give life to the market.

Fresh blood needed to push the price at least $10K mark and say that the bulls are back. However, I guess that we can't achieved it at the end of the month.

Let us see how April will bring to us. I hope that at least the bulls can somewhat battle and fought the bears who have been on top for more than 3 months now.

Each and every cryptocurrency user has got positive expectation towards bitcoin's growth. But scenario varies with the market and we cannot predict the outcome that easy. Nothing big has been taking place at present to pump the price forward to take it reach higher. Hope this year will provide the best luck for every cryptocurrency holders.

Well, you may need to keep your mind and believe that anything can happen. I know the downtrend cannot continue forever but no one knows the future and no one knows what this year holds. We have been in a situation where we had a long period of consolidation and if we get to see this year like that, I would not mind as it would be a good thing, as we at least get to see a huge recovery from there onward.

I am sure we will get to the $10,000 mark and from there we may end up seeing where we are going next. So far, I feel bitcoin is trying to enter the period of accumulation and that would be good anyway as this would give some of us who understand the value a great chance to accumulate some more and wait on how the future ends up, which I believe it is going to be a great one.

I think still normal in investment up and down. The price will rise and shine soon. Many prediction in this year can reach $ 30,000.
But no one know what will happen in this year. Let's see what will happen, but I sure it will up again. Because I see from graphic every years.
Every years is increase.

At least we will soon be out of this bear market, I think bullish in the near future is fairly good news. Although it will touch the $ 15,000 figure it will be a good start for his future And I think 3 months is not a very long time, it is normal.

Dont think 3 months is "very long" for the market to suffer because it may extend until the middle of 2018. Its not done yet, theres a recurring situation and still a lot of FUD that may affect the Btc price as well as the alts. But neverthless, Btc will recover soon on the 3rd and 4th Quarter this year.

First, you are being very optimistic that at the end of March we will see the $10,000, short term is difficult to forecast. People are afraid because of the regulations and negative comments that certain institutions have the habit of doing and this coupled with the fact that we have had a huge increase, causes the fear to increase. But in the long run we can make very optimistic predictions.

It will start soon ,Q2  of this year will be good for us. Starting april new investors will come ,  bitcoin will rise again together with some coins.  Bitcoin test is over ,hodlers will benefit in the end.

I think we are in a situation that needs more new buyers to push the price higher as long as no new players that are willing to invest and hold their coins, this situation will continue to give a painful experience to everyone.

Why is everyone here wishing and predicting something no one can absolutely know. This is a market and every market is dynamic with anything happening at any time. Sure, the future is great as we all hope for that, but expecting some bull run when we may even be in a long time of consolidation or anything can even happen along the line.

This is what market can bring, and we should not be too expectant but instead, take shill pills , believe that in the long run, your wait will be worth it.

It is very difficult to predict when the bull market is going to begin, after all the previous bull market lasted almost all year so it is reasonable to think that the bear market is going to last a similar period of time so I think it is very likely that this year is going to be a year of transition for bitcoin in which the price is not going to go up a lot.

Sometimes we have to be able to predict something well. When many emerging issues for skyrocketing bitcoin prices in late March. The reality is different, prices continue to fall due to the many bad issues about this crypto currency. But we need not worry. Because bitcoin is still in the legalization stage in some countries

Yes even I am one of those who predicted bitcoin's price to be skyrocketing in the end of March based on previous year's of experienced but it turned out to be other way so nowadays it's not easy to predict with perfection so it's better to keep faith in bitcoin and do not panic.

Let's hope that gets to be the case. It is not even about getting there, it is about sustaining that position.
I do not expect bitcoin to start a huge bull run after a huge dump, there would be time for it to consolidate and from there we may get to see what happens next, and usually that is when we may get to see some great recovery, but it all depends as no one can predict exactly what happens fundamentally in the middle of all these. Basically, market will not mind its favorite nor against sentiments. It will keep moving among all kind of scenarios so that we can assume it is completely a neutral.
