Bitcoin Forum

These are my predictions for the next 3-4 months.

BITCOIN needs to bottom out and shake off all the weak hands, were almost there but not quite.

Ethereum is a young unregulated project, which a few people took advantage of by building scam coins on and in return ruining it for all the REAL projects on the platform. Once these scams are deflated and they all go to zero or get shut down by the government, ETH will be used by real world companies. The SEC is barely getting started cracking down on these ICO's.


What are you thoughts?

Right now the situation of the market is in great speculation which nobody doesn't have any clue about the price. Due to market condition don't think the price of bitcoin won't be below 2000$ and ETH price won't be below 90$.

Yes, they are cracking now those scam ICO's.

With regards to your title, I disagree that bitcoin will go $1,600 - $2,800. What I mean is I don't want that to happen and the same goes for Ethereum. The market's just started to recover and what you have been asking is quite too much for me. Yes, there will be a massive shake off and it already happened.

I don't think bitcoin will go that below, it will just play around 3K to 4K and ethereum I hope will not go down to $50. There are many people with weak hands and newbies who have dumps all their holdings because they don't believe bitcoin will bounce back and recover after the bear market finish. Well it's them not the believers who are still holding.

bitcoin "bottoming out" has been over for months which means the bottom has been and still is above $6K. What you see now is not bottoming out nor is it shaking weak hands. it is only for buying cheaper  coins and it can not last long. let alone go any lower.

as for ethereum its dump is justifiable because it has a lot of issues and also it is getting dumped as people pull their money from ETH to put it in bitcoin as it is currently super cheap.

Definitely, we're not yet in the bottom so there's a lot of shake off in the next coming months. I'll still see the price going down below $3K before we can finally see another rally before going on the last bottom and then a massive bull run Q1 or early Q2 2019.


Cracking down on Scam ICO's have already started that's why Ethereum has suffered a lot. Plus the same people who brought bitcoin to its all time high early this year are the same people who immediately bailed out in May-June and never comes back. How ironic!!!

I don't think that Bitcoin would be that low again ,
And what's next Bitcoin would be back to $100 again,
Weak hands would surely be shaken but that doesn't mean that we would be back to that low price again specially now that we have so many investors and some of them are considered as whales I don't think that they would let it happen.

Thoses prices are possible i think. But i don't think existing scams ICO tokens are going to disappear. They will still exist and some people are still going to trade them. They would really disappear if they were coins and not tokens.

Bottoming out seems like a myth already as no one can tell exactly where the bottom will be at. But one thing is certain, scam coins will disappear from the space as a direct result of the SEC's clampdown on them. ETH may as a result take a direct blow from those actions, and we may see it go lower below $100

They're very wide predictions given that from 1600 to 2800 and from 30 to 70 is averaging out at over a 100% change. I think that the top of your predictions are about as low as I see the market going, we are oversold and therefore I think the first major support we hit we will bounce strongly from, if we even hit such a support level.

Your predication is pretty low price for BTC and ETH. IMO, I don’t think BTC will go as low as $2800. Seems like $4000 has become the new support and we might be jumping up from here. Just my 2 cents.

Btc and eth won't ever reach those values but i think you're under estimating them but there's a posibility that it might happen because of the market being unpredictable. Let's all just hope the market will always be pleasing with each and everyone's perspective.

I highly doubt we'll see sub 3k or even sub 2k, there'll be a lot of demand at those cheap prices which will push the price up in no time. I think the price will fluctuate around the 3k-4k levels before consolidating in the high 3k close to the current support level.

It already did, otherwise, the price would've tanked to the 2k levels a long time ago. We're left with the ones who actually don't care about price fluctuations that much as they're aiming for a clear goal: long-term profits.

$1600 to $2800 for bitcoin and $30 to $70 for ethereum may still happen because of the current status of the market. Although there are countless positive news of adoption for cryptocurrency, it looks like it was being used by the whales to make bring down the price of bitcoin and most altcoins right? It's a good thing that ICO are now being regulated seriously this time to get rid of those scam projects.

I also think that the price of bitcoin will not fall below $ 2000-$3000. At this level, we should see strong support. Ethereum really losing its popularity because of the scam projects which use the platform for the ICO.

Actually, in my opinion the lowest point of bitcoin is 2,000 usd, but indeed anything can happen. if the market chaos continues to occur and very large fud will make many people experience a lot of losses

The decline is quite sad, BTC has a wall at 3600 $ and I hope it will not go down again, and starting in the new year begins to rise, whereas ETH I think they are quite strong with a very large team and community.

I do not understand when the price continues to decline, then many people will predict that prices will continue to decline also. Even though the price decline is not limited to technicality, fundamentals will be a calculated factor to make prices rise or prices decline. While fundamentals are false, not everyone will know that will happen, hopefully in the next few months there will be a lot of positive news for cryptocurrency.

ye i am also quite pessimistic deep down
Ether $100 broken last week was a validation
but i stand well to check https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/compare

I think 3 or 4 months the fore Altcoin prices will slowly improve. Now let's see the history of the development of the BTC. BTC is the most popular coin since its existence the year 2009.

I think, Bitcoin will not go down to 1600-2800 dollars and Ethereum will not go down to 30-70 dollars. Whales keep hold these market's prices. If Bitcoin's and ethereum's prices goes down, These losses are a little bit not a big losses anymore. Bitcoin 3500-3800 dollars / Ethereum 80-100 dollars.

In my opinion the possibility as the article mentions may occur when the market falls again and Bitcoin returns to $ 4,000 and ETH hits $ 113.96. If the situation does not improve the price of BTC 1600 $ -2800 $ and ETH 30 $ -70 $ is possible.

The possibility that we can be on that level of value is on the next year, I really think we need to focus on the now because this end of the year is truly remarkable, Many are thinking that the price of bitcoin will go down beyond the $2000 mark but it didn't,

I really think that the floor for bitcoin is at $2000 mark an ETh is in the $100 dollar only, Even though there is a speculation regarding this we should be aware and ready ourselves in the future because of even the unpredictable bitcoin can be predictable at times.

I think this predictions are very ridiculous!  Bitcoin is not dumping simply because of weak hand alone,  there are many reasons beyond Cryptocurrency that contribute to bitcoin dumping . And for the ethereum,  ether should not suffer for scam project.  Ethereum platform is worth much more than the price it's selling now!

What is the relevance of bitcoin's volume chart for 2014? I think in most years the volume chart for bitcoin looks fairly similar with increased volume in the latter months of the year.

Bitcoin being the most popular coin in 2009 wasn't much of a competition since it was the only one ;)

Im just waiting for the scam free ICO under ETH smart contracts, and want to see real world companies used or adopted crypto for more modern purposes, maybe this will the beginning of the massive adoptions, when there is no scam projects exist on any crypto projects. But as long as the existance of them are shown, the price will continue to falls unexpectedly.

Whatever happens we must be prepared for the bad conditions, remember that not all hopes can come true, if someday the price of bitcoin is below $ 1000 then we must prepare and look for other alternative income because crypto is hopeless.

very interesting I thank anyone who has done panic, for me they have provided an opportunity for me to buy BTC at a low price. I don't care about the price of bitcoin for me, trade must be done and this situation must be utilized.

What is in your mind is true that BTC has to let go of these shackles,the correction must be there to rise but I don't think it will fall as cheaply and 3-4 months can be the opposite.BTC will grow with a value better than now and definitely above 8K that's my prediction.

Cracking down all of them may take years a years and this is the reason why ETH and bitcoin could probably go deeper than what we could imagine.
What we and the people behind crypto I think should embrace by now is that SEC will only mean them controlling all the new market. And no ETF because no matter how we keep pushing for it, they will still not approve of it.

We have the same bet, it is really super bottom price speculation but I would not say that you are wrong but be justifiable enough to your perspective, though it is your own views it is really pretty down low as what I believed.

These are only predictions that can occur and cannot, because the crypto market fluctuates, it is difficult to predict when it will rise when it suddenly falls, so this is a matter of trust from individuals with each calculation. Hopefully this is the beginning of a bright crypto.

The price of Ethereum will not be less than $ 90? You laugh! at the last decline, the price has already dived below $ 100 and it has a huge chance to drop to$50. The decline has not yet been completed, I assure you, and after 3-4 months, we can see the figures that the author wrote about.
Though they know the predictions are just an opinion and nothing more, but my opinion is.

Most of the weak hands are already shaken off as we have seen the market cap to lower of 117B$ and we have tested that 3500$ range of bitcoin a few times already and it may be that we have hit the bottom. If we go down from here them bitcoin should find its floor around 3000 -3200$ range.

so, you predict if bitcoin and ethereum will down harder again
i hope your predictions wrong my friend, because in my opinion the price of bitcoin already hit the bottom at $3800 and ethereum didn't break $100 as the strong support zone,,
but, who knows? because no body knows what will happend with the price of bitcoin and ethereum in the next couple of months
regards

Not hopeless but will cycle to this particular things to happen afterwards bitcoin will come back and more people will gain interest to invest and use the system, but like what you have said investors and traders need to be prepared just in case the long suffering happen and the direction to go more deeper
showed up, needs to have additional plans to make sure that diversions can happen.

i believe ethereum price will not touch below $100
but bitcoin still have possibilities to down more below $3500 maybe about $3000 my friend
and, in my opinion bitcoin will not go down below $3000  ;)

I think that is impossible because many people say that the price of 4500 is the capital price of BTTC calculated from the mining costs, so in my opinion this is the lowest price of BTC, and can be calculated as the capital

anything is still possible to happen in the cryptocurrency and at the end of this year market movements are still declining so there is a possibility that the price of bitcoin and ethereum will reach that low price, and when the bitcoin price reaches the lowest price there will be an upward movement after that.

I don't think we'll see the prices you're saying. I don't think it is quite low prices and no investor wants to see these prices. These prices will bring the end of many investors :)

This predictions seem overboard but then,  you never know,  anything can happen!  Sec can not continue to ruin project in the name of regulation.  An ICO have already won against sec in court recently!

Pockets are empty..
Most people are invested huge amount of money and now they are locked with there money in coins and have a loss of 95% and they have no money anymore to invest.
I'm also sure most guys will cut there loss by a little bullrun and dump there bags and get out of this crypto.

It's very realistic to see BTC around $1500 and ETH around $30..

Market going down from $5billion to $1billion is another story then market goes down from $800billion to $125billion.
This means $675billion dollar is out of crypto..

There is no fresh money anymore..
$675 is eated by ico creators this guys are developers and marketing teams of coins and tokens.
We will never see them back.. Because they are already millionaire and investing in real estates to guaranty every month passive income..

People say BTC lost value in the past to and i say yes you are right, but losing value from $1000 to $200 is another story then losing  value from $19000 to $3500..
If you buy 1 BTC in the past your loss was $800dollar and now if somebody bought 1 BTC his loss is more then $15000dollar.

You cant compare it.

Maybe, everything will be even better. I hope that Bitcoin will be close to $4000 for a week or two, and then start growing steadily. As for Ethereum, I think, it will reach $250 close to the end of this year.

Firstly, your prediction about bitcoin market was wrong and it seems to me that you predicted the price base how the market keep on going dip which will stop this year December. However, we all know that ETH are not to be blame for scams ICOs happening this days and this why we need the SEC to find a solution to stop scam ICOs not KYCs which they are trying to use to control crypto currency market and the last the time I checked almost ICOs owner still use ETH so there no reason for ETH to go dip to the price you mentioned either if the team fulfil their promises.

I think you really harsh realist and I quite agree with you. Bitcoin might well go below 2000$ as well as etherium below 100$. Also I think there will be rail switching towards ripple and stellar.

There is no tangible proof of this idea. I don't believe prices will fall that far. It will stop at these prices for a while and then the prices start to rise again. Worst-case scenario, it'll be back in 2020.

I do believe we will see BTC sub $3K and ETH sub $60 due to the amount of people who have been ripped off by the scam ICOs, some have walked away with 100s of millions and people will never see that back. I am hoping once it bottoms out we will see a recovery, however people keep talking about institutional money coming in. This is not good either as we all know they will want to buy as cheap as possible so that they can make as much as possible. I believe we have to wait for at least another three to six months to wait and see where the bottom really is however I do not believe this is the bottom and I think we have more volatility coming. One good thing is that volatility brings crypto back into limelight and any publicity is better than no publicity.

i know the market are unpredictable at this moment,, and disposed to down more
but, i don't agree if bitcoin and ethereum will down hard again and going to reach $1600-$2800 for BTC & $30-$70 for eth,,
because, i believe in this month we will see a green market as the beginning from the bull my friend,,  ;)

If there was an ico that already won against SEC in court and how could you consider that as a bad indicator? as far as i know about the fact that SEC has already warned these icos to complete or register their ico to the institiion. I call the price of bitcoin will remain stable.

After the big nasty selloff we saw last month, another similar one can bring these coins down to your range. Hard to tell where is the final bottom going to be in this market.

Your prediction expresses that you do not believe in the cryptocurrency market. From my point of view, I think that the price of BTC and ETH will rise in December, but the bull run will not happen. The rate of BTC and ETH now is the bottom of 2018, so that the investment on this cryptos is advisable.

I hope in the next few months price will not become like that. I think this price already dump is enough and no more dumping to happen.  We expect for the price for the bitcoin ans for the ethereum become high again. Bitcoin reach again 10,000 dollara up while the ethereum become more than 1000 dollars in the next few months.

We can only see and monitor the price of bitcoin and eth, besides that we cannot do anything to increase prices. I think it's your distrust about bitcoin and eth prices, and the market will answer. I am not a hypocrite if I want more than that, so I still have the opinion that bitcoin and altcoin will have better value.

my prediction for bitcoin price bottom 3500 $ and eth price still can reach 200 $ in this end off year, watch it guys i think its time to buy more

Prediction is quite sad, can we know about the demand that occurs? Indeed it seems difficult to know the demand in the bear market, just monitor and keep abreast of the developments that occur. Just hope that the position stays at $ 5000 and eth at $ 200 so as not to be too disappointed.

hopefully the prices will not drop any further. the predicted prices are not nice and i do not need such low prices. my hope is that we have really reached the bottom and that it does not go much deeper.

Come on, it is already bottom! Weak hand are out of this game. Even my portfolio was liquidated due to margin trading. I didn't expect such bloodbath.
As for ethereum, I don't agree with you. Are you sure it is young project without product?

The prediction just makes me laugh and feels that hopefully such people are not investing in the crypto because they are the ones who on small dip also create a huge havoc by panic selling and disturbs the market more. SO only genuine and long term buyers would make the market move ahead.

This is the right way of the market, it was impossible to have a rise constantly and live at the expense of demand and investment. Problems and quantity outweighed all this, and it turned out that we are now seeing. The realities of life.

Do you really think that there is still a weak hand that can be pushed off right now? I think at the moment the only weak hands that are still holding is kinda forced to hold because they bought at the top and they have no other option but to continue holding and these holders aren't going anywhere, they are probably already -80% down, selling right now won't make any sense even for a dumb person.

I disagree, I think this is the low before the altseason coming. It's possible that btc will slowly drop to 3k during the altseason coming now for Christmas

IMHO BTC have great support at 3000 level it won't go under it. And eth I would wait for 30-60 price till new ICO wave will come.

I think your predictions will surprise everyone, I'm sure that many people will reject the price of bitcoin to go down to $ 1600 and Eth $ 90.

Some people will but others will also take the low price as an opportunity to invest more. Number of investors is also nowhere near as important as quantity invested and with lots of large institutions gearing up to enter crypto you can be sure the amount invested will increase.


No it doesn't. There were never 800bn dollars in crypto, learn how market caps work.


And that's a bad thing how? Instead of having scammy projects that only care for money we'll have real quality projects.


You can compare it very easily. People don't have to buy whole bitcoins and most don't. If someone invested 1k at $1000 and lost 80% and 1k at $20k and lost 80% it's exactly the same..

I also believe that Bitcoin and Ethereum are unlikely to fall so low, but I do not rule out that this can happen for a short period of time. Ahead of the New Year holidays, then the Chinese New Year and the lull on the crypto exchanges, at this moment we can see a greater drop in prices for all coins than now, including Bitcoin and Ethereum.

it can happen since the holiday seasons are approaching many holders will sell their holdings therefore the tendency the market will dump and those dump will really affect the market situation this year.

Too low.

I don't think BTC will have to go that low just for another pump. And as for ETH, that's also quite low though going under $100 can happen.

Lol are you gonna be willing to sell at this price just because of the holidays knowing very well that the price may shoot up anytime? I don't think so. Though anything is posible, i don't think there will be any major selloffs anymore. We'll all be doing the whales a whole lot of favor if we do so. 

Everything can be reversed. Where the hopes end, the market will be green.

Well that is just a prediction, it might or may not happen, we are speculating after all.  But with the upcoming event on Bitcoin, BAKKT and more will follow after this, I do not see BTC going $1600 but it is possible to see at $2500 range since these manipulators will aim for the lowest possible price to accumulate more.  ETH, they have some news, ETH 2.0 or somethin, for me this is just some marketing scheme and another possible money grab by the developers and holders, I do not know if this  announcement will save the ETH price from dropping. I think it is still overpriced.

It may be lower than that because anything can happen on crypto.
IMO, it's difficult for some risky investment platform reach highest peak twice if there is no new enthusiast about it , I mean that the demand is not greater as before except more government realize about crypto and start to implement them. I know that it requires some time and for somehow I believe it will happen again !

Good day! I'm waiting for ETH to go below $100 so I can buy. Some are already uncertain and in doubt if they are going to invest more in crypto due to the fast decline of the market and some are in total loss. But its the right time for new cryptocurrency enthusiasts to join and buy tokens and btc at a cheap price. I'm still positive the bear market will be over.

More dramatic forecast than made the author of this topic, I have not heard this year. Considering the fact that usually the most tragic forecasts are not fulfilled, I think that such a low fall when the eth will cost about $ 30, will not happend.

1 month ago, people were excited about Bakkt launch and pending ETF decision and were confident about 6k support.
But then we broke the support, went all the way down to 3600 and suddenly people started predicting 1k bitcoin.

Anything can happen in crypto, but if you expect 1K $ to be crazy, there will be many people who are crazy, and maybe BTC will no longer be the father of all coins.

predictions are inaccurate, meaning even weak hands tried to quit while bitcoin is in the dip, bitcoin will not fall om that OP price prediction, although we had to face the truth that this bear market takes too long, and the recovery is slow. But at the end all of this will change to rise, when (if) theres massive adoptions happen.

Just like many others have said BTC has already bottomed out when it went below $6k and now it's just shake up. I doubt like others that it will ever hit below $3k and what we're seeing now is just shake up before it rises back up again. I'm not so sure about ETH or where it would go.

but on the contrary, I have more confidence in ethereum, because indeed, because of the most promising projects and ico, companies prefer ethereum rather than other platforms. And thus, Bitcoins do not have such popularity with the developers of new projects.

no, personally i don't believe if bitcoin will touch 1K USd my friend,, i think 3K Usd is the target of bitcoin price in this red market
and, bitcoin will always be the father of cryptocurrencies, because without bitcoin i think altcoins will never born  ;)

The market will recover from here and do not have to worry . Also hoax is being created by this type of figures and people who are of weak heart fell int he trap and start doing panic selling which leads to more fall. Coming time we will be witnessing a new ray of rise and will also help the investors to make money from it.

This situation makes many people panic but being patient and enduring is a better thing and will benefit later.
In my view, this is the process of renewal that we face.

BTC under $1500 and ETH around $20 LTC around $5 is a nice price to buy back.

And then wait 1 or 2 years to sell.

in thhis situations everybody is panic,, and thats humanly
because no body will stay strong if watch their portofolio assets decreasing in current market,,
i think people should increase their patience now,, if they still believe in cryptocurrencies  ;)

Meanwhile, I believe more and more in your prognosis. It will at least go in that direction.
Only when the whole weak hands are out of the market, it can come again to a market reversal.
I and almost all here never thought that it would go so deep again.

That's right guys ... even though there are a lot of people lately who have lost their trust in cryptocurrency and I can't even think that I will fall to this depth but in our hearts we still have high confidence that the crypto market will return to its heyday like ever exceeded.

let everything run like running water, I hope a bull run will happen and people stop to sell in panic

yeah some prediction say bitcoin will go down around 2000-3000$, i dont know eth.
but your prediction same with this guy, so i think that can happen, and also price btc continue decreasing and close to 2000$.

I agree with your predictions and with the fact that ICO has made a major contribution to the Ethereum price drop.
I do not like when the government is involved in cryptocurrencies, but unfortunately, without proper legal regulations, the ICO scams will not end.

I think bitcoin will not be under $ 2000. I'm sure $ 2500 - $ 2800 is the bottom. Bullrun will begin soon.
I agree with your ETH price predictions. 30-70 is a bottom point.

I seriously think the shake-up is ok like this Its actually affecting the whole market of legit investors if you look it so many project and business are beginning to cut down on their funding which is actually a red flag

Indeed, one positive push can make us rise from adversity, help each other and give encouragement is a better thing. This situation tests our patience, and let people always predict prices will continue to decline, which is certain, the strong are those who are able to pass this test. Crypto is in the process of growing because only ten years have been here.

after seeing conditions like this, it could happen that BTC prices went below 2000 dollars. I saw a lot of people panicking and making losses on their assets. These conditions might further worsen the situation.

I agree on you bro , 3k is already the bottom because i also read an article which claims that bitcoin will fall until 3k and it did really happen though they expect it to happen  next year (2019) in the middle of june and may . 

Its also true when you say that bitcoin is the father of all cryptos .  that is why i dont believe that it can be dethroned by any other unkown coins out there even if we say that btc right now is becoming stagnant for a longer period of time 

The market is following the path with BTC due to that altcoins are facing double digit drops in price this is all happening due to several ICO scams created to loot money of investors as ease of doing business were easy earlier. Now SEC is acting strictly & asking for supports on international levels to tackle this scams, weak hands & scammers are selling their funds & exiting the market. Also the SEC have rejected 9 Bitcoin ETFs as the applicants were failed to demonstrate how they can avoid the market frauds & manipulation. This rejection of the Bitcoin ETF also affected the price of the BTC drastically. The MCAD indicators of BTC & ETH is also looking horrible & there is chances that BTC will drop around 1500$ & ETH around 60$ in upcoming days. The market will take longer time to recover & I guess we will have to wait till 2020 to see the growth of cryptomarket like december 2017.

Are you enjoying with this predictions? I don't understand this market and people in it. Why all this people wants to price decline?

A lot of the prediction of BTC showed that the price of BTC will drop to $1,500 in January 2019, and ETH will decrease to below $50. But this market cannot go zero because of the high potential of cryptocurrency. This current price of the cryptocurrency market makes me be disabused, and I will come back to my work after a long time.

Crypto market witnesses hard times with regard to prices and volume, from other side, it witnesses very good times with regard to adoption. Some whales and new players will try to dump it as much as they can, because they are greedy and they know that Crypto will prosper in the coming years, so I think no one know where the bottom is, but historically, %85 correction is more than enough for Bitcoin.

I don't want to agree but seems to be true ,
If the market doesn't recover then we are really heading down to that price.

$30 ETH? That would make a lot of people cry so much!

But on the bright side, when you guys entered in 2017, did you ever think you would be able to own even 1 Ether? In my country, minimum salary per month is after expenses rent food transport, maybe a single person can save about $100 max. Did we ever imagine we could own 1 ETH? at $30 3 ETH? I would use that opportunity definitely, and save up for future.

A rare opportunity of 30$ will not happen again in the following year and if the value of going into that phase is better you buy more ETH,but that won't happen indeed there are a lot of dumps this year thinking will not be lower than 50$.

waoh i think your prediction is sort of matching it right now
BTC at $3300
ETH at $90
now

Yeah, as long as it bottomed out, real world companies can buy it cheap and thus the market will rebuild imo

There is some truth to what you have speculated. Ethereum have been the subject of scammers trying to cash out in cryptocurrency. Regulations by government or crackdown of scammers will bring these illegal activities to a halt thus bringing up the confidence of investors to ethereum.

If this predictions would become true, then id rather buy a lot of this coins, because i believe that it can recover in the next coming few years or months, it is certain of course, so its a best idea if we invest while the price is too low and affordable

I am agree with you, market is going towards your prediction. Bitcoin is 500$ away from 2800$ and ETH is 20$ away. Market will get rid of scammers and fake bounty projects. There should be a criteria for each bounty/ico project. There should be central agency for monitoring ICO projects. Regularisation of ico will be helpful in this regard. There are already many crypto currencies. It should be stopped now and people should focus on existing crypto currencies.   

Many of us predict btc is lower as well as eth, as if you make everyone panic and maybe many are hooked on this. Everyone does have things for every prediction, and I wait and read every prediction from friends. Indeed, bitcoin travel is still long so that the twists and turns of bitcoin will be a useful history in the future.

I agree with the price you predict for bitcoin and ETH. But the closure of the market is unlikely. This market is a gold warehouse for large whales. They can manipulate comfort in this market without being punished by law. No one wants to give up a large gold warehouse. ;D

I think so. Decline will continue until people forget crypto money. Because popularity is not good for this sector. I think it would take a long time for the market to become old.

Yeah, also i agree with you most probably Bitcoin will be bottom out in the next few months. But still i see sometimes this type of predictions https://thecurrencyanalytics.com/3827/bitcoin-expected-to-go-back-to-15000-in-2019-ethereum-classic-stellar-and-neo-shows-bright-future/
I don't think ETH is a unregulated project and only developers got benefit. Because in the market most of the projects erc-20 based but now we are thinking eth is a worthless project something like that.         

I just can not believe the prices have dropped so low, but unfortunately they are.
Unfortunately, i believe too more and more, that the prediction of op is right.
A few months ago, i really would not have believed that the prices went so deep.

honestly really can not believe in such prices, many predicted a decline but so much so that no one would expect it

The truth is that if people want lower prices, they will fall sooner or later. Until the investors do not say that the price is attractive for them to buy, new money will not appear on the market. I didn't seen big buy offers on exchanges, so we can assume that the price is still too high for investors. It is very possible that soon we can see the prices proposed by OP.

Ethereum will never be used by real companies, it has a bad reputation now and it doesn't scale well. When Cardano is released they will choose ADA to build DAPPS on, or perhaps Tezos, which is first to produce something reliable

Why do people forget that Ethereum is still to beat in the smart contract market, the way chest Ethereum has no other competitiors has it, another thing to consider is the number of developers on the platform is huge and no project compare to it for now and this stakeholders won't want their platform to collapse

I would not want to see such prices again. But at the moment the market is going down and I think it can happen in a few months.

If Bitcoin would still go another dump, we would probably see the prediction that is going to go real. But we are not yet seeing it and I hope it will not because it will bleed a lot on the market and it might be too scary to see it goes down a bit more compared to its last ATH last year.

There is no sign of it yet but we still have to be very careful if we do find that the market will continue to drop then we will finally see the $2k support. But let's not just lost our hopes that this market will have a bullish market someday, probably next year if there is a bull run.

Many people do not count for anything if a few whales agree and decide to take Bitcoin up to $ 1600.
That said I think OP does not mean that $ 1600 and $ 30 are the real values of Bitcoin and Ethereum, but I do not exclude that they are values that can temporarily touch in a violent daily spyke, and then start again immediately.

Big investors and big crypto whales do not look at Tf for 1 hour but watch the daily closures, better still the weekly ones; so I say that Btc and Eth could partially touch those values, for a very short time, but without having a daily and above all weekly closure under them.

The next few months would be the golden days for bitcoin.

I don't want to see such prices too for bitcoin and ethereum, we definitely don't want to see such low prices again. We just want to see it on a better price.

Can you tell me the proof? You can watch the crypto news site to identifying the fundamental of crypto right now and for me it looks like the crypto was not getting any sign to create FOMO.
In speculation market pump and dump just a usual thing. Sometimes it will get a dump and pump.

I hope that it will never happen, because it is difficult for me if it continues to fall like this, I hope in the near future there will be good news about crypto that can make a very real improvement.

I don't think it will go so low, but I would be very happy if it did happen. Buying at that prices would be just insane :)

I'm just speculating and bringing good vibes but here are some interesting things to come next year.

https://dailyhodl.com/2018/12/08/ethereum-developers-agree-on-launch-date-for-major-constantinople-upgrade/

https://ambcrypto.com/bakkt-fidelity-cme-and-cboe-have-positively-positioned-the-future-of-cryptocurrencies-says-bitwise-ceo/

https://cointelegraph.com/news/hodlers-digest-dec-3-dec9-us-sec-delays-btc-etf-decision-again-while-nasdaq-confirms-2019-btc-futures-launch

If this title had been opened in the past, I would never believe it. But we've come to such a time, unfortunately, I believe. We are trying to hold on to a market that is getting worse.

This is a bit to pessimism as the market goes down, the optimism is also declined but it does not mean that the values of Bitcoin or ETH will drop so low. I hope things start recovering from the start of the next year.

This year is a way of cryptocurrency to select every investor, for someone who invests not based on the knowledge they have, I mean they just want to get instant profits so they will not hesitate to leave. Unlike the people who invest and have previously sought out about cryptocurrency, as much as any price reduction occurs, they will not hesitate to stay.

This is one good news, the sentiment of the news seems bullish especially the confirmed launch of BTC futures on 2019.  I wonder why the delay of BTC-ETF decision, probably their are conspiring since institution are now into entering Bitcoin economy, they wanted to get it at great discount.  Anywho, with the confirmed launch on 2019, this may serve as catalayst for Bitcoin to change the stance to being bullish while the major upgrade for ETH may bring hype to ETH market, since news of developement is always gives a bullish effect to any project.

soon we all get this price that I think. if really it happened I would buy a few ethereum at this rate. It would be the best investment for mine that I believe.if bitcoin and ethereum race this rate I also tried to buy some altcoin at this time. becaiuse for this rate altcoin price would dump huge

I hope that as soon BTC and ETH price increase. It is high time for more invest btc and eth. Beganing the next year  eth and btc both price will be increase.

If you think $3500 was bottom, you are mistaken. Markets don't give you 3 days to buy it but rather 15-30 min max (like on Feb 6th) However, I believe this was a local bottom and we'll range between 3500-5500 for some time. A lot of people don't rule out a capitulation to be into mid 2's.

I think this could totally happen, take a look at the current market. I see people are depressed and the market will go down.

If BTC touch $1000 range then that means God has butter my bread, for me I know this price range won't last because alot fo people would be hurt, the miners, ico developers, exchanges and investors in particular and anyone that have the grace of buying it around this price range must have done well for himself. If BTC enters this price range expect to buy Ethereum below $30 which is projected price range

Its something like this prediction gonna happen in few weeks or months, as the market continue to drops and all are falling, and also with bitcoin, some groups projected that it will go 1500usd each, and its something gonna happen by first quarter of the year.

I think that Bitcoin will be in the region of $ 3000 . Ethereum 80 $ and from these points will start the price recovery. I think that in the next month will change .

Before all, all users of cryptocurrency express their opinion equally as desires, which are not supported by any facts. I think that there are no prerequisites for real changes in the cryptocurrency market in a positive direction.

I agree with your speculation. I think our market will collapse and many investors have to leave the market. The market will recover after 4-5 years. As the whales entered the market and made the price of the altcoins rise again. So we do not buy it now.

I think you're wrong. We see how volatility has returned to the market, volumes have increased. We see big bitcoin movements on large wallets. + The market can not constantly fall. + Big events are waiting for us in the first quarter of 2019 (Bakkt, ETF)

i dont like this predict, i think after Ethereum 2.0 everithing will be good. for ETH. becouse ETH will be more fast, and new ETHereums makeing hard, 1 new Block - will be New 2 ETH.  now is 3 ETH.

Soon, everything will depreciate. Why lower the price on the market, who from this remains in the black? Who benefits if no one earns?

As soon as BTC hit $14000.  I hope that beganing the next year bct star increasing and  within 3  month btc his this amount. So no upset man.  you  should hold btc until this time. If you sell  now, you lose big amount. 

of course, regret will come to the end, indeed many expert traders predict that Bitcoin will be at the level of 2800-2900 $,
and Ethereum at the level of 60-70 $, terrible if that happens

I will support your position. The lowest possible point for Bitcoin now is 3 thousand. When it reaches it or even earlier, it will start running up. The same refers to Ethereum - the alt will gain.

based on what you are telling bitcoin can't be low in $2000, if bitcoin hit the support price in belo $2800 i think and with market data bitcoin can be lower tahn $2000 in the next year but if not hit the support price i think bitcoin still above $2000

Seem like what you said are going to come true. ETH and BTC price are falling maybe it'll arrive the price which you predicted very soon. I think this is a good chance to make this world better by disqualifying all the weak hands and panic sellers :)

below $2000 price the market will come to panic selling and price going down to below $1000 wont be surprise, so i think it is very crucial time as right now market is moving down.

I think the current condition is very worrying and my suggestion is not to do brave speculation like holding an altcoin, because this is very risky to lose very high, I prefer to sell my assets and wait for good conditions to return, the fixed price movement trend will not change in the coming months.

Absolutely have to agree with your predictions. I would say that I wouldn't be surprised at all when BTC would hit 2000usd mark within a month from now and ETH would fall to 50s. The overall situation right now just screams for sudden and unpredictable price swings to red.

The prices that you are predicting seems low to me but I do not see to much of an improvement during the next months so you could be right, also I am not really that sure that you predictions for ethereum will become true, even if the sec tries to regulate the market, what it is going to do if the icos are out of their jurisdiction and do not accept American customers?

I totally agree with you that it could really go down to $1600-$2800. Since I haven't seen any signs of it moving forward to skyrocket this year. But I want next year to be totally better when it comes to price. Anyways, no one knows what will happen to the price in any time.

75 for eth was below my belt and now you are talking about 30! Do you understand that it is like a death for crypto market?
It is a death for all ICOs because they won't be able to convert crypto in cash for this price

This are slowly happening now and i think these low prices are really possible specially that the holiday seasons are coming in which people need money to spend for the celebrations and gifts. Hopefully that it will not reach below $2,000 for BTC and $50 for ETH.

don't panic for it, bitcoin is good investment then gold investment. I think BTC will not touch $2000 look at cap for 24 hours BTC can gain more than $4B, BTC isn't only for trade but BTC can be good investment in the future

I think the price drop of ETH is not a bad thing, because this decline will cause many scams to die directly, the market will be "cleaned up" and Bitcoin will be born again.

I forgot to add that Bitcoin began to lose popularity, and everything was right. Well, at prices, even such indicators do not reflect the real picture of the development of the market and coins.

I put some orders on 2800$. Hope that price will dump here, or even more. To 1500$, that would be awesome.
If we crypto goes again to the moon, current sales are like gifts from heaven ;).

Even if Bitcoin does not reach 14 thousand as you say, there is a great reason to hold it. BTC is doomed to become more expensive cryptocurrency. Maybe, it will grow in 3-5 years, but it will happen.

These figures are quite real. According to ETH, we are almost at the turn of $ 80, I think that we will move further down. There are no prerequisites for market changes. Now is the time to buy cheap coins for the future 1-3 years ahead and wait

No No No, Just weit to 14 JAN ;)

ETH fork can change this situation :) ETH 2.0 is coming <3

on weekly time frame  2900  could be   end of bears

I agree with you because no one had ever dream that this could be the worse year for crypto with the continues bearish market. I feel the disappointment on those who bought ETH at the all time high which could be not easy to decide to cut their lose or keep the faith.

Seeing this condition, I became truly pessimistic. Even I, in November, did not believe if the price of BTC would reach up to 3700 dollars and now I have to accept the fact that maybe BTC will fall as low as possible

but I hope that the storm will end soon because we have all been down for 12 months now, I'm sure in 2019 or afterwards can see prices improve again and for now we just need to be patient to wait

I do not think that we will see these lowest prices like 1600 dollar for btc and 30 dollar for ethereum, but we are not in dip still I agree with you, maybe we can drop to 2500 dollar and eth can see 55-60 dollar in few months.

well,
maybe i agree with your opinion about ETH and their ico recently.
with unlimited circulation right now, it can be truly scam.
but on btc, i dont believe or hard to believing about ur price prediction.

No, a low price for coins and the death of the market of cryptocurrencies are not synonymous, people need to stop doing that, the market is not dying, the technology that is behind cryptocurrencies like the blockchain and the cryptography used to secure your transactions are as solid as ever, the only thing that changed was the demand coming from the public and that is natural.

according to one of the source im following they think bitcoin will fall down to 2800 that's the bottom ethereum will fall to 60 $

That is very possible. now when the market is down anything can happen. even the downward trend of the market continues today if we observe it.

Oh yes, the whole price predict bore me now.
Nobody can say with certainty how the prices develop.
Although it is possible that the prices fall so far, but i rather hope for a price increase.

Just wait till the market recovers and your prediction will be rejected.  Eth will bounce back to $200 and.bitcoin will go nearly at 9000$.

It goes down so clearly could happen. It went low enough though think twice before jump over it. Don't be so sure when will this explode. Bitcoin goes up just a little over $200 increase lets' see where it goes..

anything can happen. the worst possibility includes a decline in the price of bitcoin if it continues, it is not impossible that prices will also decline rapidly

Everyone can write their opinion about the price here, but surely nobody knows how the prices will really develop. It is possible that prices will fall so low, but no one will be able to say it with certainty. The only thing we can really say is that we have to survive this time and we all must not give up. It's always been that way, and I think it's gonna be that way again. So wait and see and don't leave the crypto world. Hopefully you will be able to profit in some months when the next bull run comes.  ;)

well, you are right. If today I see the BTC price going up by more than 3% but that is not a definite reference for the beginning of the year it will be bright for the crypto world, tomorrow the price will fall dramatically tomorrow.

I do not know if that will happen but if it does you need to be ready and have a defined strategy, what are you going to do if that happens? Are you going to keep holding your coins? Are you going to sell? Or are you going to try to take advantage of the low price and try to buy coins for cheap? It is better to know what you are going to do before that happens so you do not panic and make a mistake.

This is no doubt a situation of pessimism for those who had invested in Bitcoin is December 2017 and back in January when the price was more than 8k USD. So this is not doubt a shock but let’s see how the wise people manage it.

Etha prices have reached 80 $ some time ago and today going up by bitcoin has also risen. A few days ago I heard some new news as there will be Bakkt, the Nasdaq will trade Bitcoin in Q1 of 2019 then the ETF problem in 2019 whether it will be postponed again or the SEC approves this proposal. But for now I have entered with some of the funds I have.

yes it does frustrate many people. but, do not be pessimistic, we must remain enthusiastic about this. it could be that the crypto price will recover in 2019. well, even though it's not certain, but I think this will get better.

Such rapid changes are a little difficult short-term imbalances.You can wait a little because the market will start to recover itself.But some of them add a completely negative atmosphere from the very first days....

Current bitcoin prices are more than $ 3k and ethereum is more than $ 100, and for the next 3 months I believe the price will continue to increase.

that's right, and now we can see the market condition has begun to move up, I hope this will be the starting point for the rise of cryptocurrency and become an upward trend.

the price just keeps jumping up and down, i cant make of it

At the time when I reply to you, the price of BTC is $3,800 at the last month of 2018. And I guess that the price of BTC will go up the next day, and the last day of this year, BTC's exchange rate will reach $6,000. And the next 3-4 months, the price of BTC will recover and overcome $9,000, ETH will reach $1,000. Let's wait and see my prediction :))

Looking at the current market conditions I even thought that bitcoin would be difficult to go down to $ 3000 for the future and also ethereum. both of them have strong graphics for next year to make it better again

Did you notice the rise in the value from 3k to 3.7k today? It is nice to see the graph rising again. I am sure those who will invest in this low price situation will cash profits upon the return of Bitcoin to 6k and probably more than that.

Mr. Novogratz say that we have bottomed out, out.. This song is catching and even more when market is growing. I think that next year will be positive for crypto.

He failed with his prediction this year so that's all he can say for the market.

We probably bottomed out this year but still that's not enough to say that we already got out. The only thing that I've been thinking right now that 2019 is going to blast off for sure.

BTC is now at $4100 which is a good sign that it's now a little far from the bottom and I'm hoping that the demand will increase as the year ends. Next year could be a more challenging for us. Better to decide to buy now while still at the lower level.

I can understand the frustration that people are suffering but you cannot let that emotion dominate you, the recovery of worthwhile projects is almost guaranteed so the only thing you need to do is to hold your coins and even if it is a simple thing to do many seem unable to do it and that made the price of most of the market to go even lower during the bear market.

It is hard for us to predict the crypto market. Because i think Bitcoin and ETH can be as you say predict, but they could be quite different and price increases. Bitcoin and ETH are very unpredictable and sometimes when i get up Bitcoin can be $ 10,000 and ETH $ 500.

These changes give us the hope that the market will start the run. Maybe, soon the bulls will be here, and the cryptocurrencies will gain. Now, I know for sure what I must not do - I must not sell my alts now. Just wait more 6-12 months or more.

But look at the loss people have incurred due to the fall in the values of Bitcoin and other coins. Majority of them have already left and I believe that they will invest again to make up for the losses they have incurred.

I think to increase the price of bitcoin and ethereum is the adoption of a well-known and recognized stock exchange legal by the world government, if the news about Bakkt and Nasdaq is correct, the possibility of a bullrun will occur

I began to feel that the storm had ended. well, I feel that now prices have started to recover, and are starting to rise again. with this, I am more optimistic that bitcoin, and eth prices will stay away from low prices in 2019.
