We do not understand where are going to bitcoin ?  last few weak bitcoin again up to near 10000$ but today bitcoin down and its already gone under 9000$ . So i think bitcoin never reached 20000$ this year .What are u option about it please explain?

$20,000 is probably unlikely in 2018 now but have some patience man. We’ll likely see north of $30,000/$40,000 6 months or so after ghe next halving in 2020.

Why is everybody always so desperate for huge gains immediately?

Nothing good ever comes easily.

Unlikely to happen that you are thinking that most of bitcoin news is bad and purely bad news, but we still do not have to believe what others say is the price or bitcoin price because no one knows when bitcoin will increase and nobody knows if bitcoin will continue to increase as my prediction will only cost $ 20000 bitcoin this week.

I am optimistic about the prospects of bitcoin. I think the price drop was temporary. Most likely, someone needs to buy bitcoin cheaper. I believe that by the end of the year bitcoin will update its historical highs.

in my opinion maybe yes maybe not.. bitcoin is so volatile so can not just say bitcoin reached that price. but it will happen it has a potential.

As predicted bitcoin will really hit 20,000$ this December. There are big figures in the bitcoin industry who are saying the same words and eventually there are truth in those words. I also agree that we can hit that value or more this December. Also the price drop recently was just temporary and so on the coming days we will be back at 9000$ and we will hit 10k$ next week.

if in my opinion it is possible and unlikely that could happen this year, because people all no one can predict bitcoin prices. yes we all pray only hope bitcoin at the end of 2018 can give the best value to us all

yes guys, I agree with you. bitcoin will not reach $ 20,000 again this year. because bitcoin prices can not reach $ 15000 in this month, but that can all change, this is the international market. they whales can pump bitcoin prices to make a fortune.

To reach a price above $ 20,000 by the end of 2018 I think it has a fairly long time, and I still believe and believe that in this year bitcoin prices can still reach prices above 20k, we can see the history of bitcoin price increase every year.

That doesn’t mean anything. The exchange rate can climb by $20k in a few days. It depends on who’s buying it and how much their buying.

Of course bitcoin price will reach $ 20000 but not in this year but I am very confident can menyutuh high price like this in a long enough time like 5 years to come, to stop bitcoin supplying is getting less and in the year 2019 again there is a bitcoin division of this very effect on bitcoin prices are increasing.

Usually bitcoin moment is on Q3 and Q4 of the year.
Just like last year, bitcoin from just around 6k USD in the august, then it was boomed to 20k at the end of the year.
I think it will happen to this year also, bitcoin will hit 20k again at the end of the year or even more

i agree with you some people so desperate for huge gains of bitcoin price, can't wait is only coming in the half year of 2018 and i don't know some people gives negative expectation for bitcoin, negative attitude are not become successful, i wii suggest those people had an negative feedback for the future price of bitcoin just relax and wait the right bitcoin become bubble in the coin market cap.

well if nothink related to value happens
even btc hits 20k again will be wrong
and price goes back again

so we need somethink gives value to bitcoin

We dont have a lot of prediction about this but as always we could really expect this pump in bitcoin we know that the dump in the marketcap of bitcoin is always possible in any moment but as always the pump as always possible at anytime in just a small amount of time no one expect the bitcoin to pump up to 20000$ last time. In my opinion it is  always possible may be not this year but the pump will come.

Bitcoin has the potential for growth in 2018 but cannot reach 20000k. This is because there are most people( including major bitcoin holders) have decided to sell their bitcoins compared to those buying. Other too speculate further fall and have decided to channel their investment into other altcoins which are speculated as viable

It is no so impossible like you say. The market liquidity still bad. So we can see great moves on each vector.

I can't really predict much after seeing the volatility of bitcoin past few months. It can go up to $20k and it may go below $8k. No one can be sure. But I do have a gut feeling that it will be reached to $20k even this year. May be by the end of 2018 but I think it can happen.

Check the below thread,may be due to this .The price of bitcoin is fluctuate to low value now.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3738635.0

And don't come to conclusion,bitcoin will ever raise again.If any huge holding people sell their bitcoin,their may be some price reduction.In two or three days,the price of bitcoin get back to it's old value.I was dam sure the price of bitcoin will reach 20,000$ before this year end.

I think the decline in the value of bitcoin in the past few days  is normal and it will not last long. bitcoin will still be able to reach $ 20000 this year. We still have plenty of time until the end of the year. I believe the big investors are still waiting for the right moment good. If they inject a large amount of capital, the bitcoin price will still be able to reach $ 20,000 this year.

Well I think it wont reach $20k this year too, for the reason that maybe some would want to lessen people holding bitcoin. Of course some would eventually let go no matter how much they are at loss. It could maybe go down to $5k by end of this month, who knows right? But because of the FUDs and maybe another correction is coming, it will eventually drop down again.

in my opinion, it is not hard for bitcoin to reach $20000 again, but it is not easy to stay steady above $20000, bitcoin price is so volatile, nobody can know where it will go

No one really knows whether the price is being manipulated or not. It is always based on the people and the news if the price will go up in that.

didnt it just ran out of steem staying above 10k?

altcoin investing was had many better opportunities in last time interval

well also before the btc have reached the 20k in December it was very volatile and reached that level from 6k, so to base the analysis only on the volatility I think can not give us a healthy analysis.

You have just seen few analysts saying it is going to be $25.000 this year , then you buy bitcoin and it crashes, everyone thinks like that but making money in crypto is not that easy.

I think everyone can do the analysis and speculation about the price but analyze your analysis by looking at current prices and estimate BTC will not arrive at the price of 20k which is very illogical and too pessimistic

that is what you think right??
but as we can see everything will go fine.
BTC wiull reach 20K this year!!! wanna bet???

I think it will reach $20000 this year only.It has already touched this mark in 2017 only.Bitcoin is recovering and this is a good news for all the users.Investors are also now getting good returns as the prices are rising now.People are holding their bitcoins for future price rise as they have full belief in bitcoin.Its value is very volatile and we do not even know when will the prices rise.But I think bitcoin will definitely touch new heights this year.

It is a concern why what some people cared for about BTC is the price, one thing for certain we were not where we were last year. I know for sure it will surpass that price again not sure when, BTC hit $1000 and then corrected and took more than 2 year before it hit that price again. For as long as the fundamentals are strong I am 100% bullish on the price long term

just because bitcoin made this huge increase of value last year, it doesn't  mean you can double your investment within few months, stay calm and wait..

in my opinion, it is possible and likely that could happen this year, after great raise in 2017 of crypto (near 900 billion dollars) many persons and companies plan to enter in this great financial market and by 2018 that they will join volume will be raised and prices in the following
so 20K i think can be reachable in 2018

$20000 is a long way, I don't think Bitcoin will make it to $10000 this year again. I thought the price will keep rising still the middle of June, but it started to fall drastically within the second of May. And I'm sure the price will fall again in the time of Christmas and holidays season. Yeah there's a five month difference in between but I think the price will reach $12k at most.

I think that Bitcoin can  be reached  over than 200000$.In 14-16 of May it will be cost 200000$ because the Consensus will be.

I think that bitcoin would certainly cross $20k by the end of this year. As the demand is increasing so the price is also increasing.

Yes it can???? What's with turning a statement into a question? Look at the title. LOL

Its very hard to predict the future market of Bitcoin. It is very volatile and we can expect it to cross even 20000$. But lets see what happens. 

we do not despair, bitcoin up even nobody knows.
we are optimistic that this year there will be a huge increase in bitcoin prices.

I think yes. It already reached $20K last december 2017. So 20K is not impossible in the fourth quarter again or earlier. All we need to do is to hold and wait.

Why not bitcoin can even rise beyond $20,000 before the end of this year 2018, the question you should ask your self is how much was bitcoin by this time last your 2017 and how long did it take for the Price to rise to the amount the year 2017 ended with. Bitcoin is very volatile and it operates on the economic law of demands and supply so at that when the demands go high the Price will also rise.

Yes, so far this year bitcoin has reached 20000$, the peak reached at the end of 2017 to around 19000+-, it is probably due to the fact that the whole cryptocurrency market capitalization which reached the maximum of about 700 billion stopped of investors-the bulls who saw in the period of the suspension of the demand for coins, plus a reduction in the number of transactions, which was the signal for a mass selling. If you look at the graph, you can see that such a massive profit taking in the last 5 years occurred at least 2 times a year. The next fixation of profit in my opinion should happen at the end of this year at around$ 25,000, but this is real, but only if States go to the loyal regulation of the cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin for me is exclusively long-distance investment. I don't wait anything from it neither this year nor the next year, but I am totally sure that its price will grow in future. So just wait anв hope, and certainly don't invest any money that you are afraid to lose

Don't expect a price that is beyond to its limit when Bitcoin now is already struggling to reach or even pass at $10k resistance. You better be hoping that Bitcoin will continue rise slowly rather than hoping a quick gain within such a small amount of time. Everyone has it's own time to shine, so you better wait for it because once you rush onto something without a proper plans, you might end up losing and going back to start it all over again.

I think you are recently interested in cryptocurrency. A year ago there was a similar situation. Now everyone is waiting for events after the cool conference may 14. After that there should be growth of cryptocurrencies.

how so where bitcoin is going? you should know that the price increases if there is a lot of demand and the price falls if there is not much demand and if we have bad news the price also drops


you say: never

saying this can be a big mistake, because you can not be absolutely sure that the price of bitcoin can not reach $ 20,000 this year. You must calm down and you must be an optimistic.

I don't agree. Over the past year, bitcoin has made to the X20. What can prevent him from repeating such a result this year?

I agree because nothing is easy money we can get there just more patience and enjoy your journey in crypto before the rockets up. As long that you earn in what you invest in crypto I think its enough and wait until bitcoin get recover and pump again.

I am just gonna post this really bullish article here - "Bitcoin Price Could Reach $64,000 in 2019: Fundstrat Analysis":

"The bitcoin price could reach $64,000 by the end of 2019, according to a new analysis of cryptocurrency mining economics.

The study, conducted by Wall Street strategy firm Fundstrat Global Advisors, argues that that the ratio between the bitcoin price and miners' breakeven cost (P/BE)
has proven to be a 'reliable long-term support level' for the flagship cryptocurrency and that current and future mining infrastructure development will 'underpin bitcoin price appreciation into year-end 2019'.
Although $36,000 is the most likely target for the bitcoin price according to this analysis, it could end up anywhere in the $20,000 to $64,000 range depending on how the landscape develops over the next 18 months."

tl;dr THERE IS HOPE! HODL!

I'm willing to bet on 1 ETH that bitcoin will reach$ 20,000 this year and above. Because this is not such a big price threshold, considering all the circumstances.

Not experience. This fall in prices should not last long. Simply now there is an artificial dump of the prices before conference on may 14.

Why not, the journey of 2018 is still long, I think it will give time for bitcoin to reach 20k. I believe bitcoin will achieve that value, and I hold what I believe.

Last year we faced the same situation in the market, everything we need patience here but one thing you need to remember, this year if Bitcoin cannot reach to more than $20k. Maybe next year it is possible for Bitcoin to increase it's price even higher value.

Who really knows if bitcoin will or will not reach 20K USD this year again? It's about your faith whether you will believe that bitcoin will rise again and that this year will be much better than the bitcoin we have seen/witnessed last year.

Yes maybe you're right, bitcoin will not reach $ 20,000 this year. I'm sure this year the bitcoin price will increase but not reach $ 20,000, maybe around $ 17,000 because I'm sure there will be some correction. But nobody knows because bitcoin is very fluctuating and bitcoin always makes a surprise, so anything can happen.

Probably it is very tough for bitcoin bitcoin in the year to reach 20000 usd. I will suggest you to keep some patience and wait for some time beacuse the price of bitcoin will rise very soon.

No one knows for sure the future of bitcoin. Not necessarily the current low price being the reason the bitcoin can not to increase? I think bitcoin can reach 20k this year.

This month is still young were not yet close to end this year. Yes future is uncertain but their is a hope for bitcoin to reach 20k$ this year. Patient is need and I think any months will come btc will increase.

Of course I agree with you, It's too early to say categorically about what can happen before the end of 2018. it's still only month of May and we will still be able to see Bitcoin's best growth soon, as well as another price drop. In general, I would refrain from regular forecasts .

There is such a chance still. Every year BTC breaks new record, but this time market probably needs stability. I don't see it as a decline and bad thing. More projects will be realised, more value the coin will have in future

BTC value has not gone up which is why many say it will not go up to 20K this year even penetrate 10K just really hard for it,well it's a short thinking in my opinion that BTC value is still very far even for this year alone is still about half a year more true people say here.myself can see BTC can go up 1K in one day and that's really big potential.

We saw the same price movement last year but yet in the end it prevailed. I think Bitcoins will end the year with a price of $20,000 to $28,000 . The downward movement we are seeing now is part of what it is has gone through over the years.

it depends mate 'cause the market is very unpredictable since such causes emerge in the market. who knows maybe it will jump again like what happened before year 2017 , so now we can't say it will not increase again back to ath on this year 'cause  on this circumstances every scenario is temporary and there's a possibility always for it to rocketed without any signal . and by the way we are not yet on mid of year 2018.  So let's wait for more results instead of making early predictions for this year.  

I think Bitcoin will reach 20000 dollars by the end of this year. Still, a lot of time is left. Bitcoin team is working on its drawback and i believe by the end of this year, they will be back on its track.

Bitcoin over the years have always exceeded people's expectations in terms of price and this year will not be an exception. So personally I think it's really early to give this prognosis or preempt any thing. It's obvious that bitcoin is facing a very serious opposition from; governments all over the world, from other technology experts this year  but bitcoin will definitely continue to thrive. I am optimistic that this year will be a great year.

Bitcoin at. $20,000 before the end of this year is an under estimation because we have seen so many expert around crypto currency that have speculated higher value for bitcoin before the end of this year, so your thought of bitcoin not reaching $20,000 before end of December this year is an under estimate in my opinion. 

If we know the concepts of share market then we may know that the price of the product is always vary and Bitcoin price always vary but in stable way so if we think about 2017 the price increased 9k to 20k so it’s possible to reach that goal also it can be more because of increasing rate of bitcoin users so it’s possible to reach in 20k because it has bright future and bright facilities.

Since the price really dumps right now that is why we are concluding that it would be hard to reach predicted $20k but I am still hoping for that price to happen, for me too early to predict, we can still see good news in the coming months we just need to wait for it by continuously holding.

Don't worry about the ups and downs of the bitcoin prices, for me the market's natural condition and often happens in the market, we should believe in the prominence that has been implied on the popularity of bitcoin, that how many times bitcoin crash, in the end bitcoin will still come back as winners and $ 20.000 is the estimated value that will be exceeded this year.

OP, dont be too sure.

if we see the situation of the market of crypto currency in this year indeed is not easy to reach 20k again in this year but I think bitcoin still have possibility to repeat it's successfull like last year, we are still have 7 months left until the end of year, keep positive thinking and do not affraid so positive things will happen.

I still believe that it will happen again this year and bitcoin will make a new peak. I know a lot of problems we heard about cryptocurrency early this year but for me it’s just a challenges that bitcoin can survive. $20k is possible to be break, watch out and believe on it.

Lmao, we all want that, but with the current market conditions i really doubt that something like that can really happen during the next few months. Well, maybe it can happen, but it will be in a few years from now.

Just like how people were speculating about $10,000 to be a target for 2020 with the block halving being the main driver. Bitcoin does the opposite of what the mass thinks, and that was definitely the case last year. It's actually a great indicator. It was just a few days ago where people were waiting for the $10,000 to be broken through, but it didn't. If the incentive to do so was there we would have broken that level already. It was a month ago where people were speculating about $4000 and lower, while the market jumped up badly not long after that. The dump speculation doesn't seem to be that strongly represented now, which goes up for pump speculation as well, so it might be time for consolidation, which is fine with me.

So just because of the current situation of bitcoin this will give a result that it will not be a able to reach $2000k this year? Aren't you understand how bitcoin performance from the beginning? It was been from the position that impossible to make a result that we are witnessing nowadays. If this became possible from the past, I believe that  will also be possible in this year, that same performance has a great chance to happen.

1 token price is proximitly 8592.01 US Dollar, it is not that bad i believe. don't panic guys at least it is much more stable then before. i am not sure about 20000$ but it has te potential to grow that much. BTC

We have about 7 months for us to end the year, there are a lot activities that can change the game to make bitcoins even by pass 30,000 by the end of year. It is too early to doubt the bitcoins price increase.

it seems that it is very difficult for bitcoin to break in at that price. and but in the future it could also be for bitcoin to reach that value. the most important thing we pray is that bitcoin can pump the price until it can penetrate in the value

How did you know? Maybe you're a stock trader lol! Remember Bitcoin is not effective on Technical analysis but fundamentals are more worth to read such as articles blogs or even videos on youtube so you can speculate more the price of bitcoin. If you don't understand the whole criteria of bitcoin the you can read the whole white paper of bitcoin.

As I see the market today bitcoins seems having trouble at the 9k usd barrier  , it is actually at 8k right now , if this continues and lot of FUD spread regarding bitcoin we may never see the 20k usd again this year , I guess we already hit it at first quarter but given to high amount of dump that we experience during those season here we are stuck again at 8k-9k usd , better to pray for good news and other bitcoin adapation which may give us again a glimpse of hope for 20k usd .

As its coming from deep now we can hope this could be touch 5 figures and maintain this until end of this year this could very good result and hopefully we will touch this magic figure of 20000$ in before 2020 because now few policies coming which are going to help this bitcoin spread around the world with help of good teams of devs those who working hard for this

There is a speculation from a Wall Street veteran that bitcoin will reach the $25k at the end of this year but they way it is going now i think that it will not go that way. Bitcoin has hard time breaking the $10K resistance.

$ 20k bitcoin price for this year?
I will say "yes", it is the hope for all bitcoin holders. if last year reached $ 15k then this year will reach $ 20k

Yes, i am agreed with you. But everybody knows that nobody can control bitcoin so how its possible? Nowadays bitcoin again down hope it will be again under 7000$ and many people are disappointed for bitcoin price. I still believe that bitcoin price will be broken previous records.

Are you sure that he will not be able to do this this year? I think that it's still a bit early, even after half a year has passed I think I need to wait until the end and then we'll see who was right and who is not

you should always give technical reasons why bitcoin cannot reach $20,000 and not what you think. This time last year bitcoin was below $1500 and many of us here said it is not going to reach $3,000 before December 2018 but we can see were we get to. Bitcoin crossing $20,000 is very possible in 2018 and the current price movement is what we need for the next move.

Thank god! there is someone who understands that this is not the right time to give such bold statements when we all know that market could change the direction of its flow any time. Better not spread such negative news and put newcomers in stress. All the old investors of this industry know this fact that market always falls down by the mid of the year and recovers at the end. So better stay chill.

I will be millionaire if the price hit $20k this year. I will make huge profit but I think all in vain. The price is not increasing and stuck between $8k and $9k. More than half a month the price is no increasing from the above price. I am thinking that how will it reach to $20k till the end of this year. But anything is possible in cryptocurrency world. Let’s see what happens.

It is all about time. Time will tell us the right price is the right time. Many people predicts that it will reach to $20000 till the end of this year, and many say that it will be round about $11-12k till December. I think it is difficult because the price is below $9000 and almost half year is going to finish and $20000 is far away. There are also corrections in the price time to time.

I think you should not be so excessively pessimistic, because you should keep in mind that no market in history has been characterized by continuous and consistent growth for many years, but there are periods of great volatility, but approximately 80% of the time the markets move in ranges, as today's bitcoin is doing.

In fact, if you start to review the bitcoin's historical behavior, you will notice that during 2015 and 2016 bitcoin was very little volatile, so you should be mentally prepared to see a price around $9,000 for many months before that it resumes its bullish career towards new heights.

High chnces the price of the bitcoin will become $20,000 this year again. We know that bitcoin already reached $20,000 last year so it will become like that price so it easy again to bitcoin to increase or hit $20,000. But if many people will see their bitcoin we will not see bitcoin become $20,000 we need to buy more bitcoin like what we did last year 2017.

Be positive I believe price can reached $20k this year. It is early to conclude what the price can fully achieve this year ends. We are in the months of june so I think in a few months time or ber months it may reached.

I believe in your thoughts even though there are many unspecified factors in the future. Countries need to improve the legal framework and more structured ICOs, which will create greater interest in the crypto market and bitcoin will rely on that for growth.

it will not hit $ 20k this year because bitcoin may be lowered due to miners and investors holding lots of bitcoins and being sold because of the high price that causes lower value for bitcoin today, perhaps the next few years will cost $ 20k to hit it.

i actually believe that if price doesn't go to $20k this year then it won't be because people (all the ones you mentioned) are selling. but instead it will be because the price is kept down and pushed towards a much longer bear market.
we have seen that market was ready to end the bear trend at least three times now but  each time it was met with a strong and well executed dumping to keep the price down. of course things like this can not last forever but until the day demand grows stronger than the manipulation we will remain in this trend and below the ATH.

probably you are right and bitcoin will not reach this mark this year, this year was difficult for him and constant recessions hampered his growth

Well, it is pretty hard to predict with its volatility and all the panic sellers roaming around reducing the price even more sue to wrong speculations and negative news about bitcoin.
Anyway that should not be a problem for you if you are investing in the long-term, it is given that bitcoin will rise and you only need patience.

is impossible to reach 20k$ this year because of the huge rise of last year and the people start to thinks is scam and it's just bubble

Bitcoin has been told that it will never reach higher than $1,000 few years ago.

But if that's your opinion and you are becoming pessimistic because of the current market flow and bitcoin is showing lately. This year can be full of surprises, I'm still basing my feeling from last years great ATH.

I understand what you meant to ask. Though a positive message can be shared that bitcoin will reach $20k this year,  the current situation is zigzag and can not predict the growth trend but it's quite good to see the range being between $7.3k to $7.9k. hope to have growth of minimum $10k by this month and starts growing towards $20k but it just remains stable between the values above. Hope the trend should start by end of this month.

I am closely watching its short term trend growth and not its higher level at this times like $20,000. The trend will start this week and so observing it now and if confirms the bull trend we may see it aroun $10,000 above. $20,000 is so positive to reach remember how many days or weeks of trend in just a small time it climbs the price very fast.

You're right no one believes that bitcoin prices can go past $2k last year, the price can penetrate up to $19k and nobody has such
high expectations, just like this year, if not many people believe that btc will reach $20k does not mean bitcoin prices will not reach that price right?

And so what? We still have 2019, 2020, and so on. Of course we should understand that not all we want were going to happen, if it does then it's good. Btc is likely having a hard time this year. Waiting a rise for many days/weeks but going down faster but like i've said it's fine we still have next year and so on.

  Bitcoin is a unique currency in the market having a lot of potential and perfect strength to achieve any possible and impossible place and this is guaranteeing by its response towards people which in turns give rise to the value of Bitcoin. As we are observing a huge traffic on the market these days and this is due to the favorable time for buyers which will result in high market soon.

There are more expectation from new users and they are crying over the current valuation, if you check the price a year back you would know the huge difference in price and no one expected the market to rise that much and yet i went that high and had a correction and we might see the trend by the year end and i am sure the price will rally from next year on wards and reaches its peak in a couple of years.

We can reach it I believe on it we need a patience to reach that price if not this year there so many years will follow that btc price will reach the highest price. Just hold it for now your btc and buy more.

I don't know, I'm very bullish about bitcoin but with the current trend that we are seeing, it looks like the OP has a valid point. Again, I'm not trying to create FUD, however the way we see the price keeps struggling to break the $10K barrier about a month ago, and then the subsequent collapse below $8K, lead me to believe that someone is really pulling the price when we are about to make a good run, so it the trend continues we might not see it conquering the $20K price at the end of the month in my opinion.

If the price increase will happen gist what happened last year from July to Decrmber then it can really hit that price, we will just need to wait a little more due to this instances of news and fuss.

Let those expectations that are negative to bitcoin be given.

They are not the one that will give the flow of bitcoin's price as long as the market is lively in volumes there can be no problem and I'll never doubt that it will never $20,000 for this year. There are so much great news to come and this season can also be the recovery.

It's not easy to maintain levels when they are inflated above that what could be seen normal in a specific time frame. The only level that we managed to comfortably stay above this year is $7000 and that's directly where it should stay at, for now. We have seen how the price came back down to current levels after attempting to break $10,000 not that long ago. All the experts predicting the market to increase very soon don't look at the situation from that perspective. They only see that the price went down from near $20,000 to where it is right now, so it has to be cheap for according to them, but it isn't. If people considered it to be cheap they would have bought the market up.

Maybe this is year is difficult to buy a highest price because the market is so volatile now. We can't say if we go up or more under 6k price. But my option is to hold my coins as long as I can because I don't way to lose my money.

Well, do not be negative thinker that bitcoin could be low again, some says bitcoin will rise before the year end, so just hold you bitcoin and we all know that bitcoin is not stable so we need to be patient and wait for it recovery. When the price is low just buy bitcoin and hold until the price goes up again.

what you say is actually true, because there is no good news at this time that can trigger a bitcoin price increase so now it is very difficult to increase prices and not only that, some countries have begun to ban bitcoin circulation so that the price of bitcoin it also becomes very difficult to do price increases.

in 2018 my prediction of bitcoin prices will not be up to $ 2000, the highest increase may only be up to $ 10000, I think patience is needed to be a holder, it will take a long time to reach the price of $ 2000, it may also be affected by global economic conditions

You are right, by looking at market conditions that are currently very alarming, at the end of the year bitcoin will not reach 20k. I think in 2019 crypto prices will be better than this year.

Yes, it is true, I also think so, that the increase in the current year will not exist, even though there is a bit of a bargain but that is useless and a decline again, I predict the price to reach $ 10k is very difficult if the current market situation is very unstable. My hope is that this decline will soon stop, because everyone is looking forward to the return of bullrun even though in the coming year

I don't think this is going to happen, Bitcoin will not reach 20000$ again this year. Many are expecting the same price scenario from the end of the last year but having in mind current movements on the market this is not very likely to happen.
Still I expect slight rise of the price until the end of the year so we might come to 9000$.

Not only bitcoin down at 9k dollars because now the value of the bitcoin is dumped at 6k dollars plus and that is not good because if the value of the bitcoin continue to dump you will lose more. So we need to pump again bitcoin and high chance also to see 20k dollars because we have still 4 months before end of this year 2018.

I have thoughts like you. For about 3 months it is the end of the year it is up to 20k is hardly possible. And just hoping it's better than the current few thousand dollars is okay. To give the community a little gift from the market, very much desirable.

This is absolutely correct. It is difficult to multiply two or three markets. Because bitcoin is not an ico or other coin. It is a common coin for the market and for transactions for the entire electronic money community. So in order to increase prices, all other areas must also be affected.

In order to again exceed the price of $ 20,000, some very significant global events must occur. This year, most likely no strong push that would allow bitcoin to update its maximum - will not happen.

Even if bitcoin may reach 20,000$ or not, that's still okay for me because i am really planning to hold my bitcoin and other cryptos i have for a long period of time until it's really okay with me to sell it already. But to just give my speculation about it, bitcoin do really have a chance of reaching that because there are still few months left before the coming of new year. As we can see, it was just in the last quarter of last year when bitcoin rises drastically.

right, maybe it will not experience a high increase and this is reasonable, reaching above $ 9k is good this year there is no need to expect up to $ 20k because bitcoin also needs more time to develop

I am positive btc will reach $20k this december. This happened last year. It started to rally by october until it reached the ath.  Patience is what we really need and you'll reap the fruits later.
 

You say the right bitcoin need time, we should not expect too high this year although the time from now until the end of the year is very long. I will be happy with any price as long as bitcoin is higher than current price of $1000 or $2000, of course $20,000 is too good.

Being positive is good, but it doesn't look like it will be a December 2017 flashback. $20K seems to be a hard target to reach this year, though it has gradually increased its value, if you see the past records of same time you will see the price have increased. We are moving up slowly if you guys see. The December hike even if it happens will be temporary and again people will start loosing, its just a pump game by manipulators.

That is just it and that would be news that would really fuel in a huge demand for bitcoin in a pretty huge way than we can all imagine. I really do not see much happening this year if we are to end up relating it to the market movement towards $20k.

We will really need that strong push to get it up there with the fact that a lot of those who managed to hold still with the market trend after buying at the top, would quickly want to sell and get out. Some weak hands are still in the market, but despite the fact that some have lost hope, some are still just hoping for that day they will just simply get out which would obviously bring about a huge resistance as we keep going up.

Those weak handed people was too creepy when it comes to momey, they don't think on how bitcoin could go through much profitable potentials. These bunch of morons always acted like a little kid whose desiring to eat a lollipop, but not even looking for much better than it like an ice cream or something chilly. If this will continue to happen many greedy individuals dumped coins after some sorts of increase, then we'll not able to obtain that $20k expectations.

There is still four months left before year 2018 ends, and I think if the values of bitcoin are still able to holds its ground above the level of $6500 USD per bitcoin despite some huge bitcoin ETFs rejection news spreading online in the last few months, we might still have a chance to see the values of bitcoin reaching $20000 USD per bitcoin this year if governments around the world starts to launch policies that are in major support of crypto-currencies for the next few months.

Just like what you have claimed we couldn't understand bitcoin and it also means we don't know what will be the next move of bitcoin. However, there's nothing wrong in making speculation because this is our way to cope in particular situation.
In my speculation, probably bitcoin will reach this amount especially now december is coming and we all know that the demand goes up when this month comes.

I also think that in the last 4 months of 2018 we will have a big surprise with the market.Prices can fly up at any time, Just having good news is enough. I expect that we will soon see the BTC 15,000$ at the end of 2018

too far if you talk $ 20k, because now the price of bitcoin is very difficult to reach $ 10k. Bitcoin prices only play between $ 6k - $ 7k. maybe only $ 10k for the end of the year.

We cannot come to a confirmation that bitcoin won't reach $20000 by this year. All that happening with the cryptocurrency network is completely unpredictable. In no time the price of bitcoin reached closer to $20000 in the past, similar thing could happen this time as well.

If it is true that the price of bitcoins is manipulated by so called whales then I don't think 20,000 USD price for bitcoins will be impossible to achieve if these whales decide to let bitcoins to make a bull run.

Anyone who is planning to hold all the way will never have any issue what bitcoin should be like by the end of the year and really, there is no point for anyone assuming what the future will be holding as we can never be correct unless we just get lucky.

For this market to rise to that level within this year, there must have been some news that would bring up some good level of demand, and it must be very strong news to be able to create such a huge demand. Asides that, I would not be expecting so much.

Maybe what you say is true, by looking at the market right now it is impossible for bitcoin to achieve that, but nothing is impossible in this world (bitcoin $ 20,000). Because everything will happen and we all don't know when it will come.

The price of bitcoins is always depending on the demand and supply, that is the reason why you should invest even more today because it was very low for a very long time and we can expect the price to pump up anytime.

Bitcoins will probably pump up again and it will increase up to $8k dollars because the bullish market is just running up and down so keep on investing today while the market price is still low.

In my own opinion, cryptocurrency is profitable if you will be focusing on long term trading since the market price is growing depending on the demand and supply so patience is very important.

I agree that we will not see this price this year, we need to wait for the next year to achieve this price

If to reach 20,000USD then I am not sure it will happen. This is because the price is not rational enough because the current Bitcoin price is still at rates below 10,000USD. It takes a long time to reach the target. But I am pretty sure that there will always be wonders in the world of Bitcoin. For me that is the thing that will happen, but we must remain patient until the time it all arrives.

20k dollars is good to see again, but i still believe bitcoin high chance to reach that price because bitcoin already reached that value in the year 2017.

But remember if no one who are buy bitcoin they will not reach. Everyone have responsibility here if you want to see that price.

It is well known that this market is essentially unpredictable, so we must always bear in mind the possibility of facing all possible scenarios, from the most negative to the most positive.

However, I think that the environment that prevails around bitcoin these days, and the expectations that many analysts have regarding the immediate future of bitcoin do not seem so gloomy as to expect a bad year for bitcoin. In fact, I do not think it is excessive to think that bitcoin could end the year around $30K, although it would not be strange to see a year of low volatility and bitcoin could remain stuck in the current price range for a long time.

The growth trend is would take the value upto only $15K and yes its not possible to reach $20K. We had a good growth since last two days and could see a consistency in its growth. The value has reached almost $7200 plus. We have 3 more months to pass. Hope this 4th quarter should yield huge d a good turn over to all those who are holding up the coin now.
