After 2017 was a happy year for bitcoin This year it reached the top Where it reached its highest value

Which reached in mid-December 2017 to 20 thousand dollars.

But the year 2017 was the beginning of the collapse of the bitcoin
Where it started to land very
And so on a lot of users
It also greatly affected other currencies
This week it fell very low, with bitcoin

reaching $ 6372.75

This is a significant decrease from its value in the previous year Because of the heavy attack of countries for this currency And their desire to eliminate them But bitcoin is absolutely unexpected At any moment it can be very high At any moment it falls. What does the second half of this year disappoint us You will wake up bitcoin again. . .

Yes at the end of december 2017 it was the year of bitcoin. No one expect such a great growth, that is unexpected growth. Likewise from starting 2018 itself bitcoin struggles to increase. June is the middle if the year  from june people are expect the price would increase but no changes in the market. Instead of increasing it countinusouly goes decreasing. This is the worst period in the market. Still have a hope like last year this year end again bitcoin will have tremendous growth. Still that we have to keep calm and hold the bitcoin.

Whether to increase the exchange rate of bitcoin in 2018? Most likely — Yes. Bitcoin is a stable cryptocurrency, so its price is unlikely to fall for a long time. ;)

This month we are seeing all time cheap value in the market now bro. With in some months however bitcoin value will be recover but people have indeed usage and traders will be really get damaged because of the current situation mate.
So if you own more fiat cash with you please utilize the current scenario and invest on the any top 5 crypto currencies mate.

2017 can be consider a golden era of bitcoin and even other cryptocurrency. This year we have a different story that no one knows what's gonna happen in the remaining months of 2018, this current fall is too crucial for this market but I know it can survive and make another history for us I just hope that it will be a good history.

Yes you are completely right and bitcoin is very unpredictable. I think that in 2018 bitcoin we will be pleasantly surprised with their price.

This year is really different from 2017 because of too much volatility and FUD news, 2017 is a lucky year for the hodlers and traders. I know bitcoin will make its own way to survive on this market and still I know cryptocurrency will be good in the coming years as many countries are adopting this technology now.

He isn't right and this decrease is a new bottom, or bottom is very close, even if it's on 5k dollars its still alright.
People watch 20 like it's should be regular bitcoin price, people think bitcoin can just rise and never fall, well it's not like that at all! Bitcoin is rising technology with many ups and downs, that is normal, bitcoin price less then 10 years ago was couple cents, now its more then 6 thousand dollars. People should be happy for this new and very high bottom comparing with previous years. Its always some newcomer that starts this kind of topics, and there are always people who support it, f. them all and believe in bitcoin despite everything they wrote, if they know better they would show it, like this they just trolls in my opinion, they don't deserve respect.

It's not because of those countries that wants to attack bitcoin and bring it down.

A hack incident, manipulation and other factors made most of the months for this years market in lowness. Anyone who's disappointed with this can learn if he is willing but if not, he's only focusing to complain.

indeed in 2018 bitcoin very reap a lot of stories that do not wear. bitcoin is still looking for an opportunity, having hit a four-month low, but bearish momentum may be easing due to short-term oversold conditions. technical charts show, more bears joined the party in the US session Tuesday after cryptocurrency failed to cross the twin resistance at $ 6,859. I personally think bitcoin can hold around support of $ 6,400 or maybe see minor corrective rally.

This surprise will be a good one and not a bad one. You can expect it to rise more than the last year and in remaining 6 months we could see some fire power of btc to its uptrend. SO if you looking ot get a good returns on your investment then start investing now in few coins so that the rise can help you make money.

As you said, the first half has been very cloudy and nothing could be achieved. But the best thing everyone had is to buy coins with very cheap rates. I am sure the coins bought would surely yield best profits down the line. Hope the price starts growing by end of June 2018. We should start seeing the last year trend come on track again with more speed. Lets see what happens.

Bitcoin price falls from $20K to less than $6500, loss over 50% of its value.
Whatever goes up significantly in a short period of time, will fall soon.
Bitcoin gains the momentum from October 2017 to February 2018 and corrected gradually since then, slowly decline from March to June, so maybe it will recover over $10K in the next month after mid-year.
What makes it possible is new trading platform developed by Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) for large investors to trade bitcoin. Once again, big whales will enter the market, the wave will come such as the last year. Read more here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4460961.msg40083147#msg40083147

You are absolutely right here the year of 2018 is not good for bitcoin i guess also but we can't already say that if the year of 2018 is not yet finished. Me and my friends are expecting more than the value of bitcoin right now in the future and hoping that it'll come true.

everyone would be freaking out at the current bitcoin drop and my advice we should be optimistic and believe that bitcoin will not collapse and I'm sure a week later bitcoin will go back up gradually and at its peak in December.

Usually experienced investors are dumb I mean that they are not talkative they do not share their ideas and point of view about market with amateurs but sometimes they may say very interesting ideas and tips. I have noticed that experienced investors are looking for a nice opportunity to get in market by buying prospective coins. I think we will sees their boughts on the chart I mean something like a big green pivotal candle.

I think the end of the year 2018 will be the boom of Crypto. Let's wait and see.

I do not want 2017 to be the last successful year for bitcoin. If the cryptocurrency survives the attack of governments then we will have a happy future.

Yes tis year really not be there yet for cryptocurrencies especially in Bitcoin the value will be falling again and again the with this changes in Bitcoin and no one can step forward from the Investment in Bitcoin but I hope they value will increasing from this month.

Bitcoin in 2018 is so slow motion. Always bitcoin passing a dumping and death slow Street. At the ending of 2017 bitcoin reached 20k but 2018 this price is reduce 4 times than before.

Yeah! That is true, the value price of bitcoins is so very low, it is so negative to trade and to convert from Bitcoins to money cash, but it is positive to invest at this time, because the value of bitcoins is so low, so it time to invest, its time to full in your big capital, because when the time has came, the value of bitcoins will going up, will back to normal, you will win that moment. because you has big capital to invest that mean you will be a millioners someday if that time will come. but gor now maybe we have negative think about the bitcoins. thinks that if we invest your big capital the more you lose your all you have. that's a normal life for any digital currency. online business. that's life.

The only thing that is left now is to go upward because bitcoin is already at it's all time low. You should monitor bitcoin price now cause anytime soon it may start a bullish run cause the price is unusually going down they say it's because of the hack of a korean exchange but they only lost about i think $2.3M where the market lost 300 million or billion. So my point is someone or group is trying to bring down the price of btc and reinvest.

2018 bitcoin status is a quite dramatically down fall than the expected one, specially on the first and second quarter of this year. But still, I expect the good things is on their way to make a comeback on this period of time. Maybe not in this year, who knows when. So just keep going and continue to support crypto currencies!

good

Anyone that expected this year to be as good as the last for bitcoin deserves what is coming to them, I remember seeing when we were in the middle of the bubble people predicting bitcoin will reach 100k or even higher prices at the end of this year which to me seemed at the time senseless since at some point the price needed to crash and it did a lot sooner and reached prices way lower than I thought, so get used to the idea this is not going to be a very good year for bitcoin if you are a holder.

The question is it will be as same as the last year about bitcoin price, no one can predict about it and I think everyone will hoping all of those predictions  happens again.

dont worry .. its necessary for the healthy market.. the prices will be stabalized soon... so always hold in these situations...

We can not conclude the year 2018 bitcoin prices have a bad price, there are still a few more months to ensure bitcoin prices will have a price more than in 2017. Indeed, if the view of the user in 2018 bitcoin users increasing, but the need to know the cause of the price bitcoin keeps on touching very much. We can start with every country's regulation, some troubled exchange and large companies that ban bitcoin. We can use our rationality to think about it, because in 2017 the cause is not there.

Ups and down is always there, but we should not lose heart if the price is falling a lot, because after every fall we have seen a good increase, and hopefully this time will also also happen again, we just need to hold our bitcoin and not to sell it, the experienced investors have already consider 2018 as the best year for bitcoin, and still half a year lifted therefore bitcoin can show a good potential in 2nd half of 2018.

Crypto market is without a doubt is on a slump right now with currently low volume across the exchanges, we don't know what will happen with bitcoin's future price but there is no guarantee that this slump will continue until the end of this year.

Do you guys why the marketplace volume has been reduced to cheap this time. I see this month every year with the stable growth in the market bro. I want to invest on the ICO or any altcoins now I feel bad to invest since the marketplace trend is low bro.
Then say about bitcoin this year I see continuous fall in the price chart.
We will be expecting the market to grow more value for each and every coins bro since you are crypto investors.

It is due to some sort of selling which has happened over the last week that market has fallen . But now the things look stable and price has also risen a bit and now above 6700$ and soon if it can cross 7500+ then we could see the new growth happening soon and all the people will be again to buying mode.

This 2018 will not be the perfect year for all the crypto currency is particularly bitcoin will not be satisfied with this year and also the users are in big disappointment but the coming up months are very important we are waiting for the changes in bitcoin hope it will come back soon for all the users.

I already had a hunch that the beginning of the year will be a tumultuous year because of the sudden free fall of the price. And then it was evident when countries started to put crypto regulations and that's why the price go down like every month and its seems that this is going to be the sentiment up to the end of the year. I hope though that I'm wrong so that we can at least make a break out to even get to $10K at least. A lot of people have already move out of the crypto market and one way to bring them back is to have something of a positive news to renewed their interest. So far we haven't seen anything of that sort, but I'm still optimistic that somewhere a long the way, something will come up to bring fresh life to the market.

This year is a boring year for btc. However, we still have hope for it in the future
As big financiers are slowly getting involved. There are separate laws for btc in some countries. But that is just the future.
I would not expect prices to rise again to $ 20,000 as of the end of 2017
Relax. BTC is the future.

It's really a bad year for bitcoin and altcoins. I think we all need to accept that we should let this anti-bitcoin to win this round because we made a huge effect last year. Then next round which is next year, it's now our time to rise and win over it.

Everyone will say that this year was a bad year for the development of bitcoin, with gap Bitcoin price reduction which is very large, some people must be having a panic and they lose trust and confidence in the digital currency. But that change will always be there and we expect Bitcoin's Market share to grow and in the second quarter of this year prices are back on a positive track. We all have to keep trying to use Bitcoin because then Bitcoin development will be helpful and we will all benefit from the impact of Bitcoin price increase.

Do you know why bitcoin users is a happy creature? Because of funny moments like this. Collapse, bubble and end of it can even be in the Guinness book of world record in titled,  “ even most used word in 2018 @bitcointalkforum” and the representative are mostly newbie accounts or new investors.

Bitcoin won’t be measured by its price alone and those worrying statements can’t help the community. Stand or run that’s the only choice you can make.

As you said, 2017 beginning was not good. if we compare it was like 2018 and the last of 2017 was a happy ending. Day by day BTC facing hard to hard political or Govt. problem. But we hope BTC will cover the lack of ratio. We are watching all the issues. We will see BTC great movement soon.

In my opinion, bitcoin is a 100% long-term investment. I understand if I poured 100 000 $ ... You can be nervous, but I'm amazed at people who bought $ 2000 and scream that they lose money with bitcoin

Yes ofcourse 2017 starting was not good to bitcoin, but at the end of the year it was an amazing growth in bitcoin. Likewise 2018 starting itself the price of bitcoin is not good. It faces lot of dips only, it struggles to reach the normal value itself. All are expect june starts the price will have increase but it does not happen. Normally first half of the year the price would not grow second half it starts to increase. After a long time today market starts with green hope incoming months the price will increase and by the end of 2018 it will be the bitcoin year.

was a very good year indeed, several things happened at the beginning of the year 2017 but the turnaround of the end of 2017 was unforgettable.


Well, it is not as if bitcoin was disappointing us, we can not forget that the price of bitcoin is more than  $6000 and that is a high price if we compare with the price of last year in the same month. Moreover, this pressure that the governments are imposing, will not be forever. Eventually many governments will take softer measures in relation to bitcoin and this will bring more demand and the price of bitcoin will increase

We cannot use past performance to try to predict the future performance of bitcoin, it is true that in the last year things started slowly, but the main difference was the developers got segwit activated despite the opposition of the miners and the many hard forks that followed, this was what created the bull market and now the circumstances are completely different.

I do not know real reasons why BTC has fallen down but surely there are objective reasons. For example, I do not know any asset which grown as fast as BTC. It is possible that there is the long correction and stabilization of BTC price to find its real value.
I consider that BTC should cost more so I have bought BTC in hope on the new similar huge growth.   

There's some altcoins that have grown too quick as they follow the path of bitcoin. Bitcoin is bring up all the coins inside the crypto market to go up when it goes up.

Very possible just like what happened from 2013.

You did a great decision for buying more, you now have to wait until it goes up again.

Bitcoin is striving and making its best to bounce back it's price from low to high. Upon entering 2018, Bitcoin experience rough times because of the price that goes low. But as of now Bitcoin is still making its price to $6000, not bad enough cause it is still high compared to other coins. Other coins like Bitcoin is striving too to attain the goals for everyone. To provide great results and high price to their investors but in the industry of crypto still we are talking about currency and it is just a part of it that price goes up and down. Hopefully Bitcoin will continue to survive and revive it's price this year, giving us a favorable result with higher price.

Bitcoin price falls from $20K to less than $6500, loss over 50% of its value.
Whatever goes up significantly in a short period of time, will fall soon.
Bitcoin gains the momentum from October 2017 to February 2018 and corrected gradually since then, slowly decline from March to June, so maybe it will recover over $15K in the next month after mid-year.

The high value of bitcoin seems to me a disservice to bitcoin. The high price serves the interest of speculators and not the users. So if there will be mass adoption and usage, then the price should be acceptable. And the acceptable price cannot be the high of 2017.

In my opinion bitcoin is prevailing in the world with the passage of time and after some time you will see that the whole world is investing in bitcoin. In the last one year investment cap of bitcoin grew many times because now people come to know about cryptocurrency and bitcoin and they invested in it. The end of 2017 was the peak and 2018 till date is not good for bitcoin.

I think on the while 2017 was very good from 2018 so far because the price collapsed in the start of this year and still below $7000, while predictors said that in 2018 the price will be minimum $30000, but till date there are no signs of big pump in the price. Now I think that till December this year if the price reaches $10000 it will be enough.

I think the end of the year 2018 will be the year of outbreak of crypto.

I think this year is the most terrible time for crypto and that almost everyday bitcoin is dropping including other cryptocurrency which is known and expensive.

fluctuating prices can not be predicted by the eyepiece, we can only monitor the developments on the graph. do not get emotional to buy, we must see the way the graph also

Starting from 2018 until now is the worst thing for bitcoin compared to 2017 yesterday was very good and a lot of extraordinary improvement though step by step but reached a very high price.
I hope bitcoin in this year could be like last year.

Look at Bitcoin in 2013. Now its normal correction. 6 month expectation for good investor its short term.

This year 2018 has become a test for strength in bitcoin and I believe that if bitcoin succeeds in recovering from current levels then it can be considered that the test for strength has been passed. And after price of bitcoin can grow to more than 20K.

Everything is really unpredictable, sometimes we guessing it easily without thinking that reality is not like what is predicted, it is always like expecting something that's not certain yet, everything back to the time, the time will answer that accompanied by the things that can affect it. Which obviously.. bitcoin is not in the dead and still has a long future and it might be will be lasting forever.

Year 2018 will be a one great history of bitcoin,because,bitcoin's down in the market for how many months,but it will  be recovered,and price will reach to the higher more than expectations of more bitcoiners. It will make them successful for their bitcoin activities.

That's true, bitcoin in mid-Dec 2017 was the coolest price for bitcoin because it reaches the highest amount of all time. We didn't expect this will happen but I think that time has the biggest investors and after earning a lot of bitcoin they've sold it immediately, I've also heard some news that there are a lot of scammers using bitcoin to scam some big investors to invest with their fake company, and some investors believe that their money will make them double or triple which is not true, I think this is also why bitcoin gets high for a fast way and then dump in the fastest way also. 

At the end of 2017 the value of bitcoins reached at the highest position.
No one expected such types of growth of bitcoins.  It was really unbelievable .
It continued at the first two months of 2018.
But after few month later and the mid of 2018 it started to decreasing instead of increasing.
It is expected after few month later or at the last of 2018 the value of bitcoins will be high position again

I think you misunderstood what I’m trying to say or to picture out what I replied to OP. I know that bitcoin will survive and defeat all challenges on its way to be in the world stage. I’m one of those person who believe on that, trust me.

Nope what happened on last months of December are all hyped and no concrete reason of its big increases.

I don’t think 2018 isn’t good for bitcoin but it is just that, it isn’t good for investors who are too greedy for profits.

until now in 2017 could be called as the best year for bitcoin even most people already get huge profit from increasing price at that year but currently still middle of 2018 and still possibly to bitcoin will high again but indeed to reach all time high again such as last year i personally highly doubt

the current price movement of bitcoin decreases with a very long time and will certainly cause panic for bitcoin holders. I think that's the kind of panic that's causing the decline in bitcoin prices and I think the bitcoin price will increase again when everyone will come back to believe about the greatness of bitcoin and keep it under any circumstances.

well indeed bitcoin conditions from the beginning of this year have a very sharp price decline even so we all also surely know if the price of bitcoin will still return to the highest price we see just how the market conditions in 2017 increase. and the price drop makes us even more shocked when some countries start banning crypto but do not worry because we will continue to support Bitcoin.

This 2018 will be the very very worst year for the cryptocurrencies why I am saying this will become very very low when compared to the previous year which cryptocurrencies will be very sad but I hope the value will come last month.

With the marketplace value you may fear about the market condition but fact we will be able to see the bitcoin value and other alts recovered in some months. Then every month there is little bump at least in the price chart. So you do not need to fear about the market trend now.

In this year end we will find the bitcoin value go 15k USD atleast in the market.

It will be the best decision of your life to switch bitcoin right now as price is not too high but it will rise more and more, I am sure bitcoin will be best investment in 2018, I have seen many investments but nothing is better than bitcoin, some experts has announced bitcoin as first best choice at 2018, same as 2017 bitcoin will rise too high at the end of 2018 so I am trying to invest as much as possible.

Yeah it was a tough time for us, only those won who was patient enough but those who has been greedy to get rich early must lost everything, I am sure soon price of bitcoin will be high, but I am sure now there will be no more tough time, soon the price will be high so buy now and don’t forget to keep it for long term, 2018 is going to be the year of bitcoin for sure.

The cryptocurrency market is still in its infancy, the big money (corporation) has yet to start investing in it, so we will see much more growth in the market in the years to come. At the same time, small investors are being more cautious with  ICOs and that is how it should be. But great things are still to come, and we will not regret being part of it.

The cryptocurrency market is good. Everyone knows that. But the btc eth and long downtrend btc many people depressed. It is not uncommon to see low value cryptocrrency per day.
Now I think when this will end. And the market as of 2017 when will come back

Yeah, 2017 was the best year of bitcoin and cryptocurrency so far because the price of all cryptocurrency in the end of 2017 is reached the top but all changed right now. We have a really bad start at 2018 and even now the price is still not move up. I really hope in the last 6 months left in 2018, we can see the price go up again.

Yeah I also think the same. It was 2017 that the price of bitcoin reached to $20000. This year is not good for bitcoin so far and the investors are unhappy till date. All are waiting for good times and predict that the price will jump again in the near future but I think it will not pump like the previous one and will increase slowly with the passage of time.

For this year 2018, I will not say that this is worst year for bitcoin because it just go back to its natural growth like in the past years. The pump back in December was manipulated and when those people who have done that are gone, Bitcoin just went back to climbing from $6k but this time it is more organic.

From starting this year itself the price of bitcoin has little bit growth only. Normally first half of the year the becomes so dull next half it will shows its great growth. Last year also the same thing happened in the bitcoin. We expect  this year also same thing happens. By the end of this year it will prove its strength.

Not every year should to be as 2017 was for bitcoin. I believe we may already forget about all of those 40-50000 $ which some experts were promising for this year. The period of long holding came, but I think on the next halving, which is going to be in 2020 year everything will change and we will see new price's records.

I can't say that bitcoin collapsed.
as we see it was 4000 USD each before it rises in the market.
but people not seeing it, what they see is just the value it lost.
but if we will analyze the market, we are still up by more than 50% compare to the price last year.

Bitcoin and 2018, will skyrocket, although after a meteorite can become bubbles that may break at any time but bitcoin investment remains a trend and will not hurt.

Market are very volatile and unpredictable. We don't know when it drop down amd when it will rise up. This year bitcoin fluctuates many times but still alive. Let's just patiently wait what will happen at the end of this year 2018 before comparing to bitcoin price last year. We are just at the middle of this year. Who knows 2018 will become more valuable in terms of bitcoin  than the value of bitcoin last December 2017. Always think positive despite  market is declining.

Bitcoin is just like a water and those other cryptocurrency as well, they flow continuously as long as there are the presence of people who will make a movement. It will rise up if people put some water on it as imagery, and it will decrease once people continuously make some moves who will drag it down. But one thing for sure is that no one knows when the biggest change will come, there are thousands of possibility out there. Bitcoin is decentralize and no one is in charge on it. Changes might come anytime, what we need is to continuously make some progress while this kind of great depression comes a while.

bitcoin and 2018? bitcoin can skyrocket because it is a crypto (a currency that has a price ) , while 2018 is just only a year (without a value ) so how can you say that 2018 will also sky rocket? that was freakin weird. lol.


how can a meteorite turn into a bubble? however i do agree that bitcoin can explode or pop up just like a bubble after it reaches to the moon but that not mean its journey will end permanently . of course the crash will only be temporary and bitcoin will still recover again soon.

yes , it will still remain a trend even if it crashes or fall but that will also cause a little bit of hurt because people dont always like to see the price drops too often or too much.

In general, it is unfortunate that 2018 is the worst year for Bitcoin in terms of bad statistics and development, and during these months we did not see a good surprise in terms of price or value in Bitcoin, and regrettably, it is always under 10k and now the current price in a huge decline (less than $ 6200).

On the other hand, I think that this is the long calm before the big storm (despite that this crisis has lasted for a long time and until now), and I am pretty sure that this bad situation is temporary, and may it will end after a few weeks or months. So the only appropriate decision during this period is buying, holding and investing a large proportion of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Need to wait till the end of 2018 to know the results.

Bitcoin is going to be very high at the end of 2018, people are now investing which is making market too high, I think almost 3 or 4 year holding will give everyone high profit, buy now and hold I am sure your price of bitcoin will be more than double so buy now and don’t forget to sell when it will be high at the end of 2018, same as 2017 price will rise too high at the end of 2018.

Cryptocurrency whether rain or sunshine will continue to be volatile. I believe there will be a time that there will a peak where every cryptocurrency will reach and not be able to exceed. In any event this is the year that recorded the highest rise in price. I think the recent sharp drop in can be attributed to the hacks. I think the saying that investing in cryptocurrencies and Initial Coin Offerings ("ICOs") is highly risky and speculative should be a guiding principle.

Bitcoin has had a fairly average year. Due to the heights it attained Q4 of last year, this year to most seem to have been so bad.
With efficient trading some have been able to pull profits from this bearish market.

To much speculation that will end on depression if those things will not meet, But all of us are hoping for good things on end year since just like the other past years happenings crypto merely get a huge moves by end years and let see if we well really see some huge changes by the end of 2018 since if we can't see it maybe we will still suffer for crypto crisis.

It can make big investors frustrating possible, but with the fall of bitcoin prices this year I think that signifies if bitcoin is an investment asset for the long term that its value can not be predicted easily. With this instability I'm sure someday the bitcoin price is capable of jumping high again. Be patient to achieve something much better.

The first half would have been used to purchase bitcoin and other altcoins as they were much cheaper. The second half is expected to be yielding profits to those invested and held patiently. The bitcoin and other altcoins' growth should begin by this month comparing to last year's growth trend. Bitcoin is expected to hit minimum of $35k by end of December 2018. Lets hope and watch what would happen.

But are you worried that Bitcoin is at the price rate of $6372? I don’t see anything to be worried about. If you were good in what you are doing, you wouldn’t have lost much of your money in this business. Even before you got into Bitcoin you were told that the currency is volatile (you know what the means, if you don’t, then search it up).

There is nothing with the current price of Bitcoin, every year has its own price, you shouldn’t be expecting the price of Bitcoin to keep on going up at all times, it won’t go up forever, there are times it will also fall. I remember that when I got into Bitcoin it was being sold at the rate of $150,but now look at what it is being sold for, it’s even way more costly.

I also hope that this year repeats last year 2017. And the price will increase by the winter of 2018. But in General it is worth buying coins for a long time 1-5 years, then we can say for sure we did everything right

Surely bitcoin will gradually decrease as the year goes by , the supply and demand of bitcoin is not to much so it can't pump up , and many hodlers or hold then sell are most likely panicking as of now and it's one of the main reason why bitcoin is falling , i hope it don't reach the rock bottom though.

Well, after we've seen the growth of bitcoin prices from the beginning of the year to date, I can conclude that 2018 is a dark epidemic for new investors coming in early 2018. But we must stay calm in the face of unfavorable situations for us

The results will be good only and the best time of the Btc will be starting soon . So do not worry much about the current situation of price and also in coming years it will be a boon for everyone involved with the crypto currency.

Don't make the conclusions too soon. I know that 2018 seems very disappointing for many users who have expected huge price pump after such superb end of 2017.
Still it's only half of the year and everything is possible yet. Although I don't expect for Bitcoin to reach w
20000$ again this year I think it might cross 10000$ by the end of the year.
But don't think of 2018 like the bad year for Bitcoin,just lower down expectations a bit.

If you will hold it with patience I bet you will be happy and will be proud for holding it patiently, so have patience don’t sell it, 2018 will raise the price almost to the 30k dollar at the end of the year, December 2018 is gona end up surprising us for high price and huge profit, this year we will celebrate new year well and good using bitcoin profit.

I definitely agree on this bitcoin is still very young and the trading opportunities that will appear when institutional money finally begins to invest in bitcoin will be enormous so this is the perfect time to go long in bitcoin if you are planning to hold for the long term, or if you feel adventurous and feel you can manage the volatility you could go short and wait for a decrease in the price.

2018 is approximately the ninth year of bitcoin and in many countries people would be finishing off their elementary education as in next two years they are entering into secondary level in teen ages. Kinder garden alone is being considered as young age in their traditions.

Coming back to bitcoin, I am not thinking that bitcoin is still in its young age. We are in the beginning of middle term which may last for centuries of years. Price wise, 2018 must be a very hard year. So far in this year, we are facing only down trend and yesterday market has broken the strong support levels around $6000 which may lead to more unexpected things. I am praying to God for those not to happen again unlike what happened in 2014.

In my opinion, it is difficult to assess BTC. And now it's June, there's still a long way to go in 2018. At that time we could understand the level of growth, hopefully the positive things that the market brings.

2018 has really been terrible for Crypto newbies, especially those of us that came into it during the boom late last year. I'm still positive it'll bounce back tho, just might not get to that ATH before the year ends

We never know what will happen to bitcoin in the last 2 quarters of 2018 but for me bitcoin will last like fiat because bitcoin now is already in circulation and a mode for payment and investment in ICOs for project development.

These predictions about the price of 6000 under correct Bitcoin
And I hope these predicted new record will still Bitcoin right

With the most recent drop, some would say this has been the worst year of the bitcoin and crypto market.
We might yet have a last gasp rally in the final quarter.

In general, we must accept the truth or reality (the continuation of crisis in 2018), and deal with this bad event in a smart way. Furthermore, it is unfortunate that the majority of users are pessimistic because of this big drop and they always make a bad decision because of the fear of what will happen in the near future and regrettably, these always leads to financial losses.

On the other hand, I expect that this collective crisis in the market will continue for some period and maybe it will end after some months, and hope for just a few weeks, and despite that this is the worst year for Bitcoin in terms of the continuation big drop and bad statistics, but I am sure that after this crisis there will good development and Bitcoin will return the to increase with acceptable PUMP, and I think at the end of this year the price of Bitcoinn will reach $ 18K again.

The beginning of 2019 will be just fiery, I think he will Wake up from a dream and make us 30 thousand dollars .I don't think it could happen sooner,but it could be.)

Wow, I really like your attitude mate and I do hope that 2019 will be different. However, we are still in 2018 and we need to face it and even embrace the current situation. Its not on our favour with all the regulations and government bans coming our way, but hey. If you are not happy, then by all means anyone can get out right now. But just remember that you will miss that opportunity to profit one bitcoin took off again. So accept the fact that 2018 is not a good year, but we can all bounce back and make a break out run sooner.

Bitcoin is very low right now, but it would pick up eventually and become higher than it is now, we just have to let the market to adjust to those that who are dumpers right now and those who are HODLers would reap alot of benefits.

My heart wants Bitcoin to go up again but I think 2018 is not the year for Bitcoin holders

Be positive mate I think in 2018 we will surely see bitcoin at highest price, because now gradually it has started to rise, more companies and more people are buying bitcoin at cheap price to hold for long, same as you I want to see bitcoin more famous, more high and more popular so that price will pump too high at the end of 2018; just hope for the best.

This is not a collapse it is a crash, while the words may seem similar and may not be relevant to some to me there is a big difference, there are crashes happening all over the world right now, most of the time the crashes include individual stocks and not a whole market but a crash is a temporary event from which we eventually recover, a collapse it is a completely different event on scale from which there is no return so bitcoin will only collapse if it did not had any value.

Realistically, I would say that 2018 is really a difficult and everyone is really struggling. I think for most Bitcoin holders, this is a big test and I don't know how long they(we) can hold on bitcoin and not get tempted to offload specially those who are holding when we bought bitcoin early 2017 when the price is still less than $1000. Although I'm sure most of them offload some of their stash during the height of the madness in December, there are still we chooses to hold still despite seeing no end at this bear market. But just like what you said, let's stay positive because historically, bitcoin had shown that it can bounce back again, so for holders, let continue to do so and really hope for the best up to the end of the year.

There's already lot of opinion or prediction for bitcoin. Either negative or positive. But we know that BTC is really unpredictable. No one knows if when it will go up or go down. But still im hoping or let me say i believe that btc will definitely rise up before the year ends. 

I think 2018 isn't really a bad year for the bitcoin as per bitcoin still has a huge price compared to the last year.. people of crypto just expected to much for this year because of the huge pump in in end of 2017.. but for the hodlers, I suggest you to hold tight with your coins because bitcoin is really unpredictable it may reach $20k again or half of that. 2018 isn't over yet, we still have 6 months for 2018. Bitcoin is full of surprises yah know? :D

As of this moment in time 2018 is a very crucial time for bitcoin I must say. It is true that we have been tested hard on how much we really want to hold on our faith that bitcoin is something worthy of doing. I think it is too early to tell that bitcoin is worthless because we keep comparing it to 2017’s value. 2017 is the golden year for bitcoin but maybe who knows by the end of this year it will surpass last years value?

True We all expect the unexpected when it comes to investing in cryptocurrencies and the likes, what if bitcoin doesn't not rise until Q1 2019? What if this bearish trend keeps on for a much longer stretch than it already has in the near future? What if the price of bitcoin goes to as low as $3,000 to $4,000 as it is currently a little above $6,000? What if the total market cap for all cryptocurrencies gets to as low as $150,000,000,000 as it is currently around $250,000,000,000? Do not feel alone if all of these questions keeps popping up on your minds as this same thoughts flows through the minds of seasoned investors in the cryptocurrency sphere. The prevailing characteristics of the price of bitcoin as it affects the price of other alt coins is that no matter how down it falls it always keep finding ways to get back up, so brace up, keep your faiths high and get ready for the price surge as it is going to be a long ride up.

This year was a difficult year for the bitcoin I was feeling depressed about the current market
please give me advice

Well, if you think bitcoin can last for hundreds of years, and by the way I think the same, don't you think that with an age of 9 years old bitcoin is still at the very early stages of its life? This why even if a lot of people think of the early adopters as the people that got bitcoin in the first 2 or 3 years in the life of bitcoin people in 25 to 50 years will see us as early adopters as well.

The current market is hard. Need more time to observe

The coming up month will be the best months for me will grow some more higher and also this year Delano should not be drafted to the previous year but hoping the value do not be down comparing to the previous year. This will be my opinion.

Expecting the same thing from the community because once many companies and people are adopting automatically the price of Bitcoin will increase its price by the end of the year. Surely there is no guarantee whether the price of Bitcoin will increase or not because there is lot of negativity circulating about the hacking and exchange problems.

It takes a lot of consideration when we will see the price of Bitcoin and the calculation then in 2018 this Bitcoin price experienced a considerable reduction in decline and even a very extraordinary decline and cause a very extraordinary panic. But this is the hallmark of Bitcoin, we will always experience these conditions all the time. Of particular concern is that we must continue to support Bitcoin and we must routinely use bitcoin, which will increase trust and at the same time make Bitcoin's popularity even better.

Bitcoin's growth last year was because of the excitement of the people who apparently did not know anything about the cryptocurrency technology, but wanted to get in and make quick money. While I don't expect bitcoin to grow as it did last year, I expect it to grow in the long term. But then, its growth would be natural and organic as many people come to use it.

The market of crypto-currency is unpredictable. But this does not mean that we can afford the luxury of not reacting to situations like the current one. If there is a desire to enter the crypt, now. There will not be a better reason in the near future. But everything can happen, therefore, competently evaluate your possibilities.

Year 2017 was the best year for bitcoin so far as it crossed $21k last year but later on we saw major downfall in the price of bitcoins as people felt that it will fall very badly and they started to sell their coins which affected the price very badly and in this year price will increase slowly and steadily but we cannot expect that it will achieve $20k price once again in this year and if it achieves then it will be a win win for all the investors and only time will show the exact picture.

2018 till date is not good for bitcoin so far. if we look back in 2017 we would see many predictions about 2018. Some said that the price will reach to $30000, some predicted $50000 and some have crossed the limits and predicted that the price would be $70000 in the year 2018, but all predictions became false and the facts are that we are facing today. This is the worst year for bitcoin.

I thing bitcoin will back to 20k $ but i don't know when btc is back
Btc because many insident  :-\

Currently the market is in the long term downtrend. Need a large new capital to pour into. Market this year compared to the other year. Please keep your money real careful.

I still believe in BTC in 2018 that the king will return only sooner or later
go to the moon 20k $

Yes bitcoin is totally unpredictable as price of bitcoin never remains the same, it rises with demand in price, so when the demand will be high price will rise automatically, I think 2018 is gone be the year of bitcoin, same as 2017 this year will also end up rising in price, till the end of 2018 price will be more than double. So hold it soon it will be regular than your income will be more than 50%.

Yeah you are right this year is not good for bitcoins so far, because almost half year has gone and the price of Bitcoin is still Around $6,000 which is very low in the investors are not happy with this price. They are now converting their money to Altcoin because low price coins have great potential and can recover their deficits. I will also invest in Altcoin.

Of course every year we see different situation in market, as in 2017 price of bitcoin was too good at the end and then suddenly the price of bitcoin become low at the beginning of 2018, so hold I am sure soon the price of bitcoin will be high once again, you can put your money in crypto investment without any fear of lose, for long term holding market is too good to invest right now.

From all of those previous comments I see that everybody is just waiting to bitcoin come back to bull market and 2017 year will come back soon with its constant growth. But honestly guys, the situation on the market is so bad and exchangers are getting hacked one buy one. I'm very pisimistic about this year. We should to be prepared to wait very long.

Bitcoin is going through hard times. But this is a great opportunity to buy bitcoin again. I think that by the end of the year it will start to grow. And those who already hold bitcoin, they do not need to sell it. It will take time and patience, but it is sure to grow.

I think BTC can drop to 5k and continues down :D

Many predict BTC falls to 4000, I am not worried because this is an annual cycle. we'll see in 2016.
we still have to be grateful Bitcoin is still valuable, this is a sign that Bitcoin is still used by many people.

I have great confidence that btc this year 2018 but now will be so cold now to see the market down but many still hope to return to this $20k and hopefully it will happen.My faith and trust to btc is always keep in my mind.the number one cryptocurrency all over the world,no one can replace it

Do you think the world cup is a part of the dropping bitcoin?

Bitcoin price is falling, and this is perhaps the best time to buy bitcoin at a more affordable price because by the time it should rise, it would probably rise to something big.

year 2017 is indeed a surprising year about the rise in bitcoin prices, the highest price increase is at the end of December 2017 last year. after entering early 2018, bitcoin prices are experiencing a major correction that continues to decline to date. but by 2018 we have just entered the middle of the year, there are still 6 months ahead, hopefully bitcoin will give an extraordinary surprise until the end of this year.

The general trend of Bitcoin in 2018 is the same as in 2014.
The overall decline is down, smoothly.
It is difficult to assess the future of past events, but the 4-year cycle is possible.
During the year the price will decrease.

Bitcoin in 2018 is working so great right now. The best thing about this is that many people that are aware in bitcoin or not are starting to use bitcoin and some users are investing in it. Eventhough the price and value of bitcoin is high and sometimes, low, there are still many investors that will increase in the past few years. Bitcoin in the upcoming years will the best cryptocurrency ever.

Bitcoin in 2018 doesn't keep it's glorious tradition. always time bitcoin and etheruem price is dumping instead of bumping. last year 2017 bitcoin price was $17k and 2018 bitcoin is $7k.

yes there has been a huge fluctuation in the market of bitcoin, but now if you check out July 2018. It has been really stable. There can be a bubble, but who knows when will it burst.

I see the investors does not have much look on Bitcoin and altcoin now. Most of the world market in every field seems worst from the past 6 months we need all the Bitcoin holders to support more on all the field.
I expect the Bitcoin to reach the 20kusd before this year ends mate.

Not agree , I think now bitcoin is gonna see best time ever soon the price of bitcoin will be high and it will never stop growing even at the bad condition, 5k is not price to become worry and sell, but it is time to hold and buy more, so it has started to grow because of high speculation and high investment every passing day, I am sure at December 2018 price of bitcoin will rise up to 20k.

5k mostly will be a dream for those people who just want the btc price to come down for no reason or just because they want to buy at cheap rates forgetting that even the current price is cheap when you compare the price of 18k which has peaked some months ago. So get set for the bull run in coming months.

It's true I was so happy with bitcoin my money was increasing day by day then
I thought it will increase more most of the predictors said it will reach up to 50,000$ per BTC.

But it never happened and i realized that listening to speculators is the worst thing you can do.

Bitcoin has come to stay, it would be around for a very long time going forward past 2018, so I don't know why people get scared when there are very low points Iike this, the rise of Bitcoin would start very soon , just keep calm and invest more.

You should take opinion from everyone, but you should take your own decision, to me i think that the predictors were very true in their sense, becasue at that time no doubt it was expected that bitcoin price is going to touch 50000$, but unfortunately the bitcoin price return and the price fell down too much, but if you are still holding your bitcoin then you should wait a little more and very possible that you will see the price again trading above 20k, which will not only recover your lost but will also give you a very good profit.

I think most people are forgetting about what is happening behind the scenes.        With the potential for regular folks to add BTC  to their portfolio like any other stock,  we could see a huge gain in marketcap.     

Right now crypto suffers from a barrier to entry.   Unless you REALLY want to get into it,  you aren't going to spend the time and effort to figure out how to buy it, exchange it,  store it..etc. 


As investing in crypto becomes more user friendly,  it will hit a multi trillion market cap

2014 and 2018 is very similar
The correction bitcoin is currently enduring could be substantially shorter than its correction in 2014.

it is possible that price changes are the same as last year, where dumping prices are at the beginning of the year until mid-year, then prices start to rise in July and peak at the end of the year, but everything can happen in the bitcoin market right? maybe pump this month?

Many people are hopeful that BTC will bounce back to break the ATH in the second half of 2018 even though it seems impossible day by day. Late last week BTC looks for $5k+ support but now it is back to $6k+ support, and MCfee a bullish prediction for July which almost everybody is anticipating. There's still 6months to go before 2019, the sky is blue and the grasses are green in the cryptoworld, there's every possibility of attaining new ATH this year.

We are hopeful and ready to face any situation, I am sure price of bitcoin will be better in 2018 because in 1027 price was not too good but at the end price raised too high so people who were holding are now milliners, so this year I think will happen the same bull will run at the end of this year, so hold your coin,. Only holding can make your successful trader and earner in 2018.

my prediction of bitcoin will go up as various countries have legalized it, it all depends on how we give everyone trust that bitcoin is a promising and safe asset

I cannot see any reason why bitcoin would crash to zero, all news discard that option, even the ones creating FUD. It may fluctuate, even going below 5k (what I really doubt), but I am pretty sure that in the long term it can only go upwards. I will just HOLD in the long term a few of them if you can.

Every trader in crypto currency is waiting for BTC to go up. You are right BTC is unpredictable, it can go up any time. First half of the year was very disappointing for crypto traders. From 20K$ to 5.8K$ was horrible, although it took time to reduce. It attack from countries persists then it will become very difficult for BTC to rise again. BTC need investors and governments of all countries are banning crypto currency and investors are afraid of investing their precious money.

2017 year was a golden year for btc.  I believe that 2018 will also golden for btc.  plz wait till 2018 December  👌

Well, as what I have notice bitcoin is in bad shape now not only BTC but also the altcoins. This year 2018 was unfortunate for me because I cannot even sell my holdings that makes pass the opportunity to buy bitcoin. All my holdings are in bloodbath and every time I see them it makes me sad but I never panic because I do believe that it will come back again as the "Ber months" begin.

Well now a day bitcoin is under correction but we cannot announce it the final rise in price because there are still almost 5 month to see how much will the price increase in 2018, I think this year will end up better than 2014 because price is rising faster and till end it will cross 20k dollar, because the only thing that has left behind is to go upward as bitcoin has faced a lot of dip, so I am sure now it is time to rise.

These are just the false news people are spreading around otherwise i also cannot see any reason which can make bitcoin price to sideline. i think that now the bitcoin price has started taking accelerator and therefore now it is expected that very soon bitcoin price will increase too much.

BTC is always a King for long term investing. I believe it will be up soon

I agree with your view when bitcoin prices are recovering again. It's a spectacular return to who have invested.
I hope the bitcoin will reach 20k by the end of this year .

The value and popularity of bitcoin has always been the subject of others deliberately creating FUDs and spreading false ideas and influencing investor sentiment. The judgments are completely unfounded for trust. Therefore, bitcoin needs to be seen properly and the community can support and think. The bitcoin value will return soon in Q3. I'm looking forward to it.

In fact, compared with 2017. with the specific statistics. I think that in 2018, the bitcoin year was heavily impacted by FUDs around hacker issues at the exchanges. That affects the actual value that bitcoin is experiencing and the psychology of investors and the community. Although, it is the perfect time to start but volatility always comes at a risk.

yes, that's true because bitcoin will always be king for long-term investments. and I believe it will rise again. so you do not have to doubt the bitcoin, because they know what they need to do to get back to the top. ;D

No it is not true that 2017 was the beginning of bitcoin fall. Fact is that bitcoin got fame in 2017 and the investment cap went to the sky. Till the end of 2017 bitcoin was on its peak but in the start of 2018 fall started and hit $6000 from $20000. From that time there are little bit changes in the price but no huge pump and dump in the price.

Yes at the end of 2017 it was nice and good time for bitcoin, no one was expecting such high price and great growth, but we cannot neglect how much bitcoin struggled since start of 2018 till now, so now this is almost middle of the year we are expecting price of bitcoin  pumping once again, people are expecting that decreasing session will end up soon, 2018 will end up like 2017 higher in price, fine speculation, maybe this year we’ll get higher than before so just hope for the best mate, think positive.

I strongly believe Bitcoin will end in 2018 for $ 25k. I think the cryptocurrency market will rebound strongly at the end of this year and this is a very good time for investors to select good coin that is going to be very cheap to hold in the next few months. .

I certainly agree. Good time to buy when prices are low. And I believe price will rise again hopefully til Dec. It would be great to reach $ 25k. :)

this year 1s bitcoin slowly,  I think next 2.3 month is a good time to btc ,eth

Agree with you I am also thinking this way that soon the price of bitcoin will be high because more and more people are involving in crypto currency now, according to me market of bitcoin is getting better now, so have patience 2018 will end up with high price of bitcoin, but till the end of this year we should not make any negative image about price maker of 2018 still we have 5 months I am sure price will recover rapidly now.

I would be happy if bitcoin makes a strong bullish again before the end of 2018. I’m ok with the price of $15k at december 2018 because that price is a good support level and expect a higher price movement in 2019. Always think positive about this market, we will pump high again.

The price of bitcoin have no significant growth from the year starting itself. 2018 is not good for bitcoin growth from starting itself the price would not increase. It faces so many dumps only two days before only the price starts to increase but again it goes to down. All are expect the price will increase in upcoming days. Hope by the end of this year the price will have rapid growth. Otherwise people are not interesed to invest in bitcoin.

Same time last year you see the bitcoin value is at cheap not even the same value see about the bitcoin price now you see bro. Please review about the price history of complete from the scratch mate. Actually then only you can find the best understanding on bitcoin price.

I expect the same value on this year as well. I am sure we will find the bitcoin price started bumping from the October month to now.

It was a blast at the end of 2017, but since then it is best to be buy because many people sold their coin at the end of 2017 which made the price a bit down in market so since Feb 2018 price was on dropping but now it has started to rise and it will continue with it, bitcoin never remain same in price soon you see bitcoin blasting and a high price graph will come out as a gift of new year 2019 from 2018 for all those people who trusted and holed their coin in 2018.

No doubt 2017 as such an amazing year for bitcoin and crypto currency, many people have got huge profit for buying and selling at the end of 2017, so same as last year I think there is possibility that price of bitcoin will start rising once again, but we will have to work for it because I think in 2018 price will be good as 2017 only if everyone will share the goodness of bitcoin without friends.

I always compare with last year's growth from the beginning. Yes, i assume and can assure that bitcoin price would cross minimum $35k by December 2018. As like bitcoin we would be seeing a good growth in other altcoins as well and 2018 is going to be for altcoins. Though the first half was not in favor of huge investors yielding profits, hope this 3rd and 4th quarters.

Your bet is totally depends on assumptions and there is no reality in it. How can you guarantee that the price of bitcoin will pump again? It is just a joke. You should see the facts, and the fact is that bitcoin in on the way down and downing more. It will take a long time to reach to its previous highest level. May some investors are not able to hold their coins till that time.

We should be positive all the time don’t think about the market too bad, now we are aware of it that rise and fall happens, so I am sure after a few days we will be able to see price higher, now is the best time to buy, not only 15 k but the price will be higher than 20k, so have patience bullish as been pass now it is time to celebrate mate, if you have some coin hold with patience, price is at rise this time.

It has been a terrific year for bitcoin and every other cryptos out there. All through the past 6 months bitcoin have been struggling and managing to keep up at a good price. Everyone is just talking about end of the year, there is no proof that it will grow like it did last year, it's just mere speculations.

Bitcoin's growth cycle has been repeated over the past few years and I believe this could be replicated in 2018. Also for me, the cryptocurrency market is only in its infancy and it is certain that the market's growth potential is enormous.

Enough bitcoin has fallen to 70% by 2018, maybe the time lapse will go back up again, we wait, d in 2019 whether the beginning gets better or worse.

I believe this is the best time to invest in Bitcoin to prepare for the growth season by the end of 2018. Remember to divide your capital into several parts to help prevent the worst case scenario.

The investment cap decreases in this year, the price decreases, the demand is low and the trust of the people also diminished in this year. Therefore I can say that 2018 so far is the painful year for investors. Now people are converting their money into Altcoin because the market position of some Altcoin is better than bitcoin and investors feel safe there.

As I know, some giaint group such as Facebook, Google had some small steps for their own blockchain. Hope BTC will reach 25K+ soon.

In 2018 bitcoin in going with unpredictable prices. We never thought of that prices at all. Its surprising for bitcoin. Hope BTC will reach 25k+ soon.

People publish that kind of FUD all the time trying to make it seem like bitcoin is close to a huge crash or to a collapse not understanding the collapse already happened we went from 19k to 6k, that is a big enough crash but many people want to see bitcoin disappear because they want their favorite project to take its place but they do not realize that if bitcoin disappeared then most coins will disappear as well.

In accordance with its predictions, because of the effects of the completed world cup, soccer gamblers will choose to keep their money in crypto currency, so there will likely be a large number of purchase actions, which automatically increase the value of crypto currency.

The price is going down because of the recent regulations of countries regulating ICO and banning it's advertisement in social media platforms and google search engine. This might hurt the market prices for a short term but it will be beneficial in the long term. But on the bright side companies, countries and start ups are creating business related to crypto's.

All the future predictions are baseless and there is no reality in such predictions, that’s why I don’t believe in predictions. You can only hope that the price will increase in the coming future but cannot bet, because you don’t know anything about the future. May it fall again and touch $1000 then what will you say? Don’t mislead people and be optimistic about the bright future of bitcoin.

those who invested in bitcoin one year ago has earned thousands of dollars against each bitcoin and those who invested their money at the end of 2017 have lost very big amount, so they should wait for more time to recover their deficits. It is right that bitcoin investment should be for long term because in short it will not give you any profits.

i don't think bitcoin's all time high price in just 19500 $. We should see some movement in late 2018 as it was in 2017. i am little confident that trend will follow . lightning network in development and many more. we shall have a great future.

Till now we we have seen only fall during the year the rise is yet to come and when it comes it will take a new high. Though it is taking some time and second half of the year is generally much better than the first half of the year.

2018 is the worst year for bitcoin so far because the price of bitcoin didn’t reach to the half of its previous peak. Now many people say that the second half will be good for bitcoin price, but I think now the ratio of growth is very low and the reason is low demand from the people around the globe. Most people are now putting their money in Altcoin.

Keep the spirit living and positive and encouragement on our holdings. This year has been slow though it isn't moving the way we are expecting for several months.

But we saw on how fast bitcoin can recover just like December and other years as well. Name those quarters when it will recover, it doesn't matter as long as we are holding bitcoin in the future we're in good hands.

i dont think that most people are putting thier money in altcoin because as i see , altcoins price are still low . altcoins price are also fully dependent on bitcoin , cant you see , if bitcoins price is low , altcoins will also follow? same as when bitcoins value is rising , altcoins do also rise .

also , 2018 is not the worst year for cryptos , because if you can based on the price history of cryptos , 2018 has still the highest growth for cryptos .

Till today this year is not good for bitcoin and lost most of its investors due to big dip in the price. From $20000 the price fell down to $6000 and is still around it while half of year has gone. It means that 2018 is the worst year for bitcoin. Now many people think that the price will rise again in the second half but I think there will be no big pump in the price.

The year 2017 is a bitcoin year because bitcoin is rising high, but this year is not like 2017, the market is currently weak and to make it better then it takes a long time.

What if the reason of these countries that attacking bitcoin just to bring the price as lower as they can is just to buy it more and more as much as they can buy in the market from the weak holders and they don't care whether or not it will succeed. That even bitcoin will falling and it will not recover because they have a second plan to promote another crypto that will control the market. I'm thinking this one because I believe that I has a chance due to everything in crypto are possible and all types of people are here even the most greedy person on earth.

We already know the results. Almost half year has gone and the price is on the way downstream and is about $6,000. It means 2018 is the worst year for Bitcoin so far. I think till the end of this year the price will growupto $8,000 and it is enough. Many people say that the price will hit 3000 dollar to 5 thousand Dollars in the coming days or weeks.

2018 is not a good year for crypto there are too many bad things happening but overall its still in greenzone if you compare with last year prices.
And i hope its going to rise more and more.

In my own opinion, 2018 is a very good year for bitcoins because the market price has started to run from $6k dollars today so we can expect a higher price in december.

From where should I begin, lol

All had hoped that BTC will be a blast pre-Feb 2018, right after BTC with all other crypto got rekt and here we are commenting on it.

The market price today might fluctuating but just be optemistic because price is still pumping so we can expect higher price before the year ends just like how crypto analyst is expecting for the future.

I think this is normal every year we experience many things in bitcoin it will go down and up but still people using it even they know it's risky. There's no permanent so even bitcoin is changing too but don't lose hope because all things will back on track again.

That is true, mate. As investment platforms are made more user friendly and making it available for everyone to buy/sell on those platforms, more people will engage into crypto with their money. I see the problem with crypto at the moment is that newbies fear to give it a start as it is too technical to start unless guided by an experienced mate in crypto.

In my own opinion, bitcoin for 2018 is a really good time because the price of bitcoins starts above $5k dollars so we can expect for the market price to grow even more before the end of the year.

Yeah it is right that the price of bitcoin is not stable and there is huge volatility in the price. this is the big reason for drop in the price because many people do not trust bitcoin anymore and they say that it is just a waste of time and money. Better to invest in Altcoin or any regular business. Now the price is growing again and till the end of 2018 it will hit $10k.

The first half of this year was very bad for bitcoin. Many people lost their money because there was a huge dip in the price in the start of this year and then ups and down discouraged investors and most of them withdrawn or converted their money to Altcoin. Now the second half has started and is good for bitcoin price so far. Let’s see what happened next.

It didn’t affect other currencies lol. Maybe this the right price of Bitcoin, cause many believed that the price was pumped (manipulated) by a group of whales, that’s why it reached that value.

And by the way I was seeing most of the people in this forum last year saying that the price of Bitcoin was too high and that it needs correction, so why are you all now complaining. One thing for sure is that the price will still go up, so why not have patience?

I think the price will not be higher than 8 K this year. It is definitely a bad year for Bitcoin and it still is, and the entire year will be that way...we expect better prices in the next two years, but this year NOT. In the next two e years, we will see jumping again....Be patent and hodl...

bitcoin and in 2018 I think this is a remarkable bitcoin drama because previously the bitcoin price once reached $ 20k and after that in 2018 bitcoin prices fall to $ 5k price I think it is a very severe and terrible decline at the same time can provide opportunities for buy at a cheap price.

This year, the price of bitcoins is expected to surpass $19k dollar cap because of the legalization of new countries for cryptocurrency and because of that, we can expect more profit since there will be more demand in the market in the next few months to go.

it seems that bitcoin in 2018 is too much to make the traders a lot of losses because bitcoin prices from the price of $ 20k fell and took a lot of casualties who suffered huge losses.

People are with negative perceptions about the market of Bitcoin as its value is low and they think that it will die soon but they do not remember that the price has recovered many times in the past and can recover this time as well. Experts’ opinion is also positive for the Bitcoin as they said that Bitcoin value will go higher than 30000 dollar price and will cross this equivalency.

If you have bought it during its peak, I'm sure that you have seen 60% losses by now. Heck they might be out of the ecosystem and totally sold everything because of the huge losses they got.

2018 is not a good year to start, most people even says that its similar to previous years specially after the Mt. Gox heist that put the market into a bear sentiments for more than a year.

However, we should not be frustrated, we should stick with this market through its worst and best days. And I'm sure that we can all bounce back, and together we will see the fruit of our being resilient and staying power in bitcoin and crypto in general.

This year Bitcoin will reach new peak.I believe that in 2018 the price of Bitcoin will increase to $35000.Bitcoin will be bright this year.

Regulations had no effect on the price of bitcoin, the price went down because it needed to go down, it was impossible to maintain the price of 19k for long and people that did not understood that soon found themselves in a very difficult postilion to sell now and lose money or to have to hold their coins for long, and many decided to sell which made the price even lower, that is what it happened.

Well everything is possible for bitcoin to reach at its peak price. The more users the tendency to increase it's value. We become disappointed in bitcoin because of the price volatility so we should always take note of this.

In my own opinion, bitcoins is a very good year for 2018 because there are more countries that has been legalized to invest in this year so obviously we can expect more and higher prices this year.

maybe from this year and the next year, bitcoin will be accepted in all countries because they can see the benefits from bitcoin to their country, especially for their citizen. bitcoin can reach more people in all countries and bitcoin can give them an opportunity to make another source of income to them so they can get more money and make their life better. this will attract more people to join in the bitcoin industry and finally, this will makes bitcoin to grow fast than before.

Bitcoin's increase cycle has been repeated over the past few years and i consider this could be replicated in 2018. additionally for me, the cryptocurrency market is most effective in its infancy and it's miles sure that the market's increase capability is significant.

The current bitcoin price movement is declining for a very long time, the market is volatile and it is very difficult to predict bitcoin prices. But I think the market will soon rise and when near the end of the year bitcoin could have a better price.

Well it's more likley that we'll experience a positive movement come the last quarter of this year rather than a continous bear trend. So i don't think people should give up on 2018 just yet. We still habe a couple of months to go 😄

2018 till date is very bad for bitcoin. Most of the people lost thousands of dollars due to fall in the price. Now the market is little bit green and the price grew. I hope that it will continue for some time but there is huge volatility in the price and anything is possible in crypto world. I am very optimistic about the bright future of bitcoin and the rising price of it.

Just like you many people predict that bitcoin price will reach to $20k, some say $30k and some hope about $50k till the end of this year. I think that if the price reaches to $20 k till the end it will be enough because the price is below $8000 and $20000 is far away and there are just 5 more months in this year. it is very difficult to reach to the limit you mentioned here.

No there is no similarity in 2014 and 2018. The market cap in 2018 is very high than 2014. The price is very high and the dip is also very high in this year. Most of the people lost their money due to this huge dip in the price. There were just a few investors in 2014 and most of the people do not know even the name of bitcoin. For me 2018 is the worst year for bitcoin so far.

I think, in 2018 we have to be more patient and control emotions well because until now bitcoin prices have not been able to reach the price we expect, and I hope the events at the end of 2017 will happen again

In my own opinion, bitcoins does have a very good start at 2018 because the market price as of today is already at $8k so we can expect higher price before the year ends.

Yes it incurred so many losses to investors but only to those who tries to sell their coins in the red market. Like it does not make sense if one tries to sell coins in a market having low price that the actual worth of investment so it is a personal mistake.

There are many investors who held on to their invested money and waited for the rise again. We have a rising trend in Bitcoin and they are happy about it and invest even more to get their money multiplied so I think Bitcoin will again give some good show.

The market price today is still dropping because the price last december is so high so now it was dumping but you can expect higher prices again after a few months because the hype will go back to the market again before the year ends, always remember that the market is volatile so its normal to have drastic changes.

Yes the year 2018 is highly surprising year for bitcoin. In this year bitcoins price is surprising falling down then that of its previous year achievement.in this year Many investors looses their money in bitcoin investment. Bitcoin is also ban in many country in this year. And this is one of the reasons behind its falling price rate. Their also some profits happen to bitcoin like its user number increase and number of people using its signature campaign sites are also increases.in this year Many unemployed people has connect with bitcoin and this thing ultimately help to the government.

Be patient and remain optimistic, don't panic because of falling market prices. Bitcoin can still increase because the market will be able to grow again, and if you panic and sell low then you really will lose. A choice, be patient will bring profit and panic will bring harm.

Investors are just expecting for the price to go high for they are here to face with profit or may be huge profit which is only possible if they have investment in low market and selling process takes place in high market. By 2018 end Bitcoin may achieve value higher than 25k US dollar which is a prediction by experts and we are waiting for that time to come so that we get our profits.

It has been a very very bad year for bitcoin and all altcoins because of the December bull gold rush. I mean it was December and in 2017 so when you look at the 2018 prices all together we see a downtrend and everything going down. If by all means the coins go back up to their all time high levels on January 2019 we can say that 2018 all was a bad year and we wouldn't be wrong however lets not forget December is like the last month of the year so it was ALMOST 2018 when we hit the ath levels in crypto currencies.

I think that it will even continue to show some more surprise. I think that in 2018 still there are 5 months to go and five months are really a big time, I think that anything can happen in next five months. I think that bitcoin will hopefully recover its price and will again reach to 20000$,
