$400 plus when?

surely within the next 1 year.  ::)

if you want predictions go to the speculation section.

Bitcoin dont have defined price.
Price is what are you willing to pay, Value is what you get.
400$ is very good money if you asking me!
But will see, after halving will rise for sure!

My guess is that it will happen within 2 months. But then again, who says that it doesn't fall back again to $380's after reaching $400.... There are no guarantees.

I think the value is very low indeed. Many people are now negative fact about and some even stop with Bitcoin.
But I think the later is more valuable to the future. I hope in any case that it will be worth more.

I remain moderately positive and think that we'll see $400 again before this month ends. I think significant amount of money now used to pump some altcoins (ETH now being the most prominent one) is flowing back into Bitcoin within weeks and that might be enough to break the $400 barrier. Another factor is that the median value is still in an uptrend (clearly visible when looking at the Bitcoin-chart of at least the last 12 months).

Not likely. Price can only increase when bitcoin scale, we are at the limit of what the network can handle, if a surge in interest happens like in the past, it will be catastrophic.

i strongly believe we will see the $400 price level within february. the price might look like it is not moving, but there will be some action in the comming weeks.

i think the price will bounce back soon to such heights, at least i hope that it will happen

Are you in a hurry?
No one can tell you when we will break the $400 again.
Just wait until it happens.Or sell if you don't have the patience.Your choice buddy.

When is the halving?
Sorry not reading news

Here:

http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/

Around 07-13-2016.

Roughly 22 weeks from now. (http://bitcoinclock.com/)

(More precisely, once a miner generates the 420,000th block, and we're currently at 398,096 blocks).

Feb. 26, 2016 @ 11:34am.

How would I know? Well, how would any person know that?

Good said.

If someone should know what the price will do, everybody should be rich. It should be very easy.

Prolly never.

Btc has a tendency to slide in a graduated way. Meaning, it tends to fall in value in short and medium term, but in the long term it should go up in value. Makes no sense to noobs but it's true to those who've been here a few years.

april may is the target for the next pump, it will start slowly, to deceive noob, then the real rally will begin

i firmely believe in a bubble around the halving, two months prior it

i think it will take a while, though im pretty sure that we should reach it before the halving, that would be the best

it can happen any day in my opinion, we just need a small pump that would push the price a little bit and that would be it

within few weeks it might happen. Now it seems that the value has crossed the margin of 380$. If it continues even within few days we can see the value of bitcoin as 400$ plus

I don't know when but it might go sideways for months. The price has been getting less volatile over the last two weeks and nothing's happened to pump or dump it. We got over the Hearn panic so nothing might happen to the price for months unless something else starts a panic buy or sell.

Soon It will reach its destination. Many adoption and block halving is in front these will lead for the good price increase soon. So hope for the best.
Better utilize this time buy bitcoin as much you can now. Soon we can profit by savings only.

Reaching $400 isn't really the problem here. The real challenge will be maintaining the $400 price level. Each time we are heading towards $400 we are being pushed back again. Even if we reach $400, then it most likely won't last. My guess is we'll touch it at the end of February or beginning of March.

It will be a real challenge to first reach the 400 dollar and than get stable.
I even think it will not happen soon, its to low right now for sure.

It will go up again, you just need to have some patience. The price kept its position very well the last weeks. I think the wealthy traders are happy with the price being stable for the moment.

Thank you, it really helped me alot knowing bitcoin

Yes its a good sign for the bitcoin users that the price is stable at a moment, generally you don't see it often when bitcoin is involved in it, but we want that it should cross $500 and remains stable there.

I think recently I saw it reaching $397 (at the time of writing this), so do you guys really think it will take 2 - 6 months before reaching $400???
It may take those many months for $500 but $400 is near and we are going to see it today for sure...

I think it be within the next month only. Were now at $397 and base on recent price increase since last 3 days (overall), a new trend seem to be started and it's going to continue in a slow growth so $400 plus won't take too long as some predicted the other day.

Yeah, things could certainly go south considering this. But can this be avoided with a (very) slow and gradual growth in interest and therefore price ... ?

This morning value of Bitcoin slightly tipped above $400 ($401,2) on BTC-e.com.

The value of bitcoin will keep on growing till the halving occurs, but after halving there are many possibilities that the price will drop down significantly.

Agree but I dont see any reason to a drop after that this happens.

The bitcoin price is already high than $400. The price is much lesss volatile than before. It is good for it to be an investment   tool.

We all hope that the value will rise of Bitcoin and that will be very nice. But you never know what will happen and that is the problem
But we all think that it will rise, because the halving is also coming and that will be good.

In relation to the question
 Do you mean?

    1)   A BTC price > $400   or
    2)   A price around $400 current price + $400. That is 800.

 

The reason is bitcoin price is always a realistic value. In a short term the price jumps high due to the halving (when the production decreased). Gradually when the circulation of bitcoin is stable the price falls and reaches around $500-$600.

The halving will increase the price, which attracts more people to the bitcoin, so the price rises again.

i totally agree.
that is the thing that i was thinking about a couple of days ago and today i saw it with my own eyes in another market but still the rules apply.

there is always a avalanche effect, like a chain that will happen because of the price rise. when the price goes up all the bots, alerts,... will go off and all those people will start buying bitcoin and this is the first demand that will raise the price then others will come and buy in order to not miss out on the price rise so the price will go up higher, ....

Market is what defines price, and right now it is over 400$. My opinion is that it will stay over 400 pretty much forever, but you cannot be 100% sure of that.

I think that will happen only in short term. People will sell after the big event halving has happened and more will sell because others sell. But the market doesn't change - less inflation means higher price with same demand.

Yeah, already we were above $400. As above buddy quoted I too feel we might be on the long term wait for the next price rise as $410 to $420 is continuing for a long time.

I guess the price will just slowly increase and increase as the value of real money is also increasing. That is why many people predicting that it will reach $1000 but i think after 100 years.

I do not think so. I think the price of bitcoin will reach $1000 in a year or two. It depends on the mass adoption.

The mass adoption determines the value fundamentally. Without mass usage, the bitcoin is useless, so worthless.

The bitcoin value depends on its usage. I use the bitcoin to buy GPU, then sell the mined altcoin to buy bitcoin.

What I like about Bitcoin is that the value can change which benefits the users because they can now decide when to buy or to sell there coins. The value is now at around $400-$500 and it is still going up.
I hope that is continues to go up and not drop again we still have to wait and see what is going to happen.

Usage as well as the market that defines the price. When usage is more demand automatically increases.

Crypto market is totally unpredictable nobody knows what is going to happen there, bitcoin is more valuable crypto currency because it has very great scope and financial indicators showing something wonderful about brighter future, hold and move forward with patience is the key of success.

Bitcoin value its always depends in supply and demands thats why the price is changing..

From my point of view bitcoin will reach around $1000 before end of this year, huge rise will happen after the block halving and i am waiting to see this happening.

As you can see now you see that the Bitcoin value is going to be more value and that is because there are now more people that is also going to use it so that is nice.
The bad thing is that we cant control it and that is the problem.

As you can see you see that the value is going to be more and more slowly and that is perfect for the people that is going to use Bticoin because they want to earn some profit.
And that is logic and also their main reason why they bought it.

Lets hope that your prediction come true. In my opinion I believe we may experience a price between the range of $650 to $800 after the days of bitcoin block halving.

That could happen. One month after the halving, the price could be $650. Year end price is $800.

If there is no block size increase before halving, the price will not rise. So the miner income will reduce after halving, they will quit, that will affect the price negatively.

At the moment the price is above $600 and it is still moving up, with the halving coming it can even be higher then now. It is not sure that that is going to happen tho.

Price will rise now, I don't think it will fall below $600 till we reach to the halving, but not sure what will be the price after the halving, may be price will fall after that.

If the price does not rise to $1000 in the next few weeks, it will not fall below $1000. If there is no pump, there is no dump.

Pump and dump will kill bitcoin. The price rose to $1200 in November 2013, and it caused a long term bear market.

Since the first exchange listing of Bitcoin back in the early days the market hasn't been anything other than pumps & dumps... And Bitcoin is still alive! :)

If there is no big pump in later 2013, the bitcoin could be much healthier. The 2 year bear market almost killed it.

We have already passed the $400 and it is at the moment almost $700 and I believe that after the halving the price is going to rise again.
At the end of 2016 the value is going to be $1000 or at least that is what I hope for because I want to sell.

almost killed bitcoin? hahaha you know that it is nearly impossible to kill bitcoins and this will never happen yes? i think the value of the bitcoin is going to grow a lot in the future

In my view, after halving BTC will reach at 750$ -800$ and at the end of 2016 will be at 1000$

That is exactly what I think.  We knew the halving for over a year. The price has already rise more than 100%.

The next rise could be caused by the implementation of the Segregated Witness and the block size increase.

The bitcoin is worth between $600 to $700 at the moment. That is indicated by the bitcoin price in the market.

In every market situation there is enough money to be made. For me, that's a very important aspect. Bear markets are a great thing for people looking to buy their coins at a relatively low price level. Those who scooped up some cheap coins are laughing real hard right now. :)

Well, I think we quite have the same thought. honestly, I waited akhirt this year to see the increase in the value of bitcoin. this time I have predicted that the likely price of bitcoin will be $ 850 or more at the end of the year. with a fairly long period of bitcoin successfully passed the $ 400 price back this year. I think it will also bring bitcoin at a high price

if current prices continue to be stable and not declining, there is the possibility of year-end prices could reach $850. but if there is a decrease in I do not think it would be easier to reach $850 at the end of the year.

not necessarily.
i have seen pride declines before that didn't lead to anything more than just a temporary decrease and before you know it the big rise happened.
the decrease can actually become a launching pad for a bigger prices, it is like a test for the bottom before the rise.

The price of bitcoin is quite stable with minor fluctuations, possibly this price is expected to make a gradual increase within few months. This might help users experience the price of $850 by the end of this year as most users quoted.

i think it is going to jump again so soon.
the stable price now only proves my theory because it was stable before too when the price started to rise and each day you checked the price it was already up a lot. so i wouldn't be surprised if price went to $720 in one day and in 3 days reached $800+

At the moment it can go both ways. And there is no clear sign as to where the price is going.
That's why i am monitoring the value each day.

Yeah right same here that i am still monitoring the price value of bitcoin we dont know what will happen in the future but i think this following months we will see more aggressive movement price of bitcoin.. and i know many people are still holding bitcoin tightly because if they sell it it will effect the price and the price will increase if its happen expect that there investors will come and buy high amount of bitcoin with the cheap price,
investors They are just waiting for the price to decrease before they take action to buy high amount..

I think we need to wait some other weeks to see if the Bitcoin's price will increase as expected (before the halving) or not.

And you missed the fact that price of BTC already increased by more than 30% just before halving occurred.
Asking for price to be even higher not even month after block reward was halved it overly optimistic wishful thinking.
Especially if we compare current situation to state of BTC after 1st halving.

those that bought their coins at current prices keep waiting and asking for a price increase add zero value to the fact that the price has gone up significantly already. they want to see the price go up right now so they can sell their coins for a quick profit. they don't have any patience to wait for the price to go up in a slow but sustainable way.

ofcourse the bitcoin price is going to be pumped a lot in the near future, we will see a new all time high i think in about a month or so, that would be really great in my opinion

There is no need for the bitcoin price to be pumped. Even with nature rise, it will be very high in the future.

I've said this before, no-one really minds a pump and a pump that didn't end up turning into a bubble would be something welcomed by a fair number of people, myself included. Due to the nature of Bitcoin the price naturally rises, so you are right in that aspect.

That is right. If the price just rises 40 to 100% a year supported by the mass adoption, that is ideal.

well the price might be pumped in order for speculators to make money out of people, though i think it is a bad thing and it is better to just wait for increases

I am positive the price will be pumped again, sometime soon. But at this moment it is very silent around any financial market.
Let's wait what will happen in september.

I do not think the price of bitcoins will ever fall back to $400 ever again. It has passed that stage a short while ago, we are looking forward to a stable price of $800 in 2020.

Next year probably it will be between $ 850 and $ 900, given the fast adoption process going on.

I think the $900 is a good price for early next year. By the end of 2017 the price could be between 1500 to 2000

That could be a right estimation. But after the Bitfinex hack, the timing should be delayed by 3 months.

I think this year there will be no cheaper than there were last week.

The bottom will be around $500 in the near future. But it depends on if there will be a big bad news or not.

After the hack i was afraid that the price would go back to 450 dollar gain. but we made it above 500 dollar.
Whichs mean 500 is a solid under level.

Bitcoin price bounced back briefly by hack and now $550 is the new resistance. people are buying bitcoins at higher prices by the strong belief that it will rise high soon.

The bitcoin price is hovering around the $580 level for some time. I think it is consolidating. it will rise in September.

The hacked issues only made the price down closer to $500 but not for a long time only a few days then price are solid at above $550 and i'm pretty sure the price will continues rise.

I am agree with you, that bitcoin would not be under $400 at least. In this time bitcoin faces the up and down, but instead of these crises bitcoin have maintain his position. So it has a clear mean that bitcoin never under $400, even his downing period.

Pump dump does not work for stable coin like bitcoins. Pumping dumping only for  alt coins which are pre-mined and are relatively new.

I suggest bitcoin to grow in a natural way is more beneficial for all of us.

Pump and dump works for Bitcoin as well. The volume of fiat that is involved and the time scale is different than for the altcoins, but in the end of the day it is the same scheme.

Say what now??... Soon there will be a time when 1 Satoshi will be worth more than 1US $.

I always dream of a price of one BTC is hundred of a million in my local country, that would be a big help for me to get financially independent and I can buy stuff I want to buy, alternatively I will consider mining of it and start a business with it a crowdfunding project to start a stable mining company for my self and to all my employees, however I think it is more possible in a dream.

Maybe bitcoin price will never reach again in $400, even there's a hack in particular exchanging site of bitcoin happens this year it decreases but after days the price increase again and it become stable right now, but it will be down again but never goes to $400

It might just be true, when many users are already using bitcoin. If that can not be met then it would could happen at any time, for bitcoin is not a digital currency that can be arranged with the company policy. Because the bitcoin is a currency in its own right and does not have a machine that could set the price of the bitcoin. But it don't make us despair, because surely bitcoin will give us an advantage. But we also have to be patient in waiting for this, because a patience will never betray

Never be over-confident regarding price of assets, because these markets are never guaranteed and so predicting like this doesn't look good... :P
Stability is good, but dumps are taking place just because people are scared after the hacks taking place on bigger exchanges...

According to me bitcoin price will reach huge value in future years and it will reach 800$ end of this year and price will increase steadily in 2017.

From the short period of time that I've been holding bitcoin, I have learned that nothing is easy to predict. Just when you thought that the price is continuously increasing, it will fool you and start to go down again. And when you are starting to panic and lose hope of it regaining its old form, it will go back to reach for the moon. The price swings before the halving could be likened to a bipolar person's mood swings.

The value of the bitcoin is really important and that is because if the bitcoin does not have that variable value there where not so many people interested into the bitcoin as they are doing right now so when the value is not worth it people wont use bitcoins anymore.

At the moment the Bitcoin value is around $600, the price has not been moving much the last month which is not a good thing.
People then will get bored and tired of waiting to long.

That is not true. People have been using Bitcoin in the exact same manner when the price was just worth a few dollars.

No matter what the value is, people will always continue to use Bitcoin. Why? Because it's one of the better (if not the best) ways to do payments via the internet.

last few days the price is $570 and move very quickly to $600. bitcoin prices have always takes a long time to rise higher, so I think you do not have to be bored to wait until tired. but maybe if you are a holder of bitcoin ya might get bored and tired when waiting for the price of bitcoin increase.

Bitcoin value is now way about 400 it's at about 600. Just today I opened another wallet just for saving up.
Bitcoin will be going more up I think and I hope we reach 750 again, hence why I made a second wallet just purely for profits.

The bitcoin value is unstable and that is because everyone needs to invest with the bitcoin the value of the bitcoin right now is 608 dollar i think and that is allot of money to invest with making nice profits.

The bitcoin has a nice value this time and that is 600 dollar and we all love it to see the bitcoin back at the 600 but what we dont like to see is that the price of the bitcoin is already dropping.

The bitcoin price is around $608 at the moment. When the benefit of SegWit is felt, the price will rise further.

At this point the value of the Bitcoin is close to $600 but that is not that high and I expected the value to be allot higher around this time.
I hope that the price is going to rise again this year so that I can make some money.

After long days of stabilized price, the price has crossed $600 as speculated by most users. Now its time for gradual increase with some major fluctuations as the year end is getting closer.

but i think still it is too good that bitoin price is so stable and not felling down any more, and now you can see that people are now showing interest in bitcoin after the bitfinex hacking and hope this time the price of bitcoin is going to create new record.

It will take some time for the people to be aware of the benefit of the bitcoin. In the long term, the value of bitcoin will increase.

There was actual reason for that big drop recently if you are referring to that by saying already dropping. Bitfinex hack was really a big hack and everybody have expected dump will be huge, but many haven't thought price will recover so soon. Price already seem recovering back after that hack, quite surprised to see that big buy support bitcoin have.

Bitcoin will be the best digital currency in next year
the price will be rising up to 1000$+

do you have a valid proof of your claim, it might remain what it is now until the next year like it happened in 2015, there is no real speculation with bitcoin, it's all random, but one thing is certain if they keep improving the client and add what bitcoin need, the price will increase
