who know bitcoin will become in 2018 i think its not possible it become 50k USD  ;D ;D

Everything can happen, but no knows what will be the track of bitcoin this 2018.
Some think  it will go down ,others predicted it will hit 5000$.  But only one can happen ,and its up to us to find out.

In 2018 Bitcoin will very likely not end up becoming anywhere close to $50,000 USD. You're looking at maybe somewhere around $5,000 maximum if the market is in a good mood and the fork goes well, but otherwise there could be some issues when it comes to cracking some of the goals for the market. $3,000, $4,000, $5,000 is a big number right now and we probably saw a lot of the new money come in during the pump from three-digits to four, and now we have to wait for either a new wave of money or a lot of people holding and refusing to sell.

$2,500-$5,000 will likely be the story of 2018, maybe a bit higher up if the investors are generous.

5K would be the highest we get in 2018.  I don't see it hitting that or going higher.  I think we will hover around 3-3.5k and it will be a solid year.

50000$ is impossible to reached by next year. Were only at 2700$ and 50k in matter of months is very impossible. My prediction on bitcoin is it will only hit 4000$ for the year 2018.

Sorry if you need $50k Bitcoin next year you will besad that the two forecasts are $18k and $44k depending on certain trend analysis, supply/demand and world politics.

This topic should be moved in the "Speculation" category.
If Segwit2x is successfull and bitcoin transactions become cheaper and faster(or even instant),BTC
will rise to 10K USD.Reaching 50K USD is doable during the next 5 years,if there are no major hard forks and no dirty government and central bank tricks(no attempts to destroy bitcoin).

i think it is impossible to reach $50k this year, more than 2000% in a matter of 4 months, it is not possible.
But $3,5k - $4k is a little more realistic, by the end of this year.

That way too optimistic dude, 50K USD is a lot and thinking that we are only still at 2k+ USD range. That 50k USD price is too far and hard to get even close to, considering that we are only a months away from 2018. My guess is that we will be reaching 3k-3.8k USD at tops next year, but who knows? Let's just hope for the better for bitcoin in 2018, I mean, it is what we really want right?

Considering the pump experienced this year already I think 3-3.8k is too conservative, I think a 5k bitcoin sometime before the end of next year easily.

Bitcoin has potential to rock the price of 5K or 50K but not in 2018 for surely. Price bitcoin is sole dependent of market situation and looking at current market happenings such as Hard fork da after tomorrow and soft fork in the month of November are ripping its strength. It will take time to recover from this the scene and would start moving up once the market capitalisation for bitcoin itself increases.

Plus you don't know exactly what is aftermath when the hard fork and soft fork comes in action.

I don't think bitcoins will be 50.000 USD/ BTC in 2018, that is too fast although there is chance for it but it is a little chance, bitcoins will be  50.000 USD/ BTC about couples decades later, bitcoin's price in 2018 i think it will be hit around $3000 up to $5000/BTC that is because the activation segwit on bitcoin's network but if the activation segwit is fail bitcoins will be down.

Some speculators say bitcoin will reach 50K but not next year, more like 10 years from now i think it could reach 4-5K next year.
But to be honest we don't even know what will happen to bitcoin in 2 days from now  ;)

I highly doubt that it would take "a couple of decades" for Bitcoin to reach $50k. In fact, I would be quite surprised if Bitcoin didn't reach $50k before 2030. That would mean that another coin has technologically surpassed Bitcoin so far, that everybody jumped boats to the new currency.

If you are expecting USD50000 for the price of 1 Bitcoin, forget it. Of course, many changes like Segwit is occurring. This should place upward pressure on prices and slowly nudge them up. Especially when transaction fees and confirmation times are slashed, prices would expectedly rise.

Moreover, currently, Bitcoin is highly underrated. Not many people use it or understand its full potential. Once this happens, through the help of mainstream media and innovative altcoin ideas like Enjincoin (Enjincoin incorporates cryptocurrency into a large, already established gaming network, Enjin. This introduces new members to the crypto-world and thus to Bitcoin), Bitcoin price should rise consistently.

For 2018, my prediction is similar to the rest of the opinions above, around 3000 to 5000 USD. However, definitely not 50000USD!

my predict is 4k$and i hope it won't go down to 2k$

I'm not sure about whether Bitcoins can reach 50K range even in 10 years time but very confident that it can reach around 5K in next one to two years time. It should focus now to resolve all those issues currently Bitcoin is facing. If that happens then it will attract many new investors and it pushes its prices to very high.

50k is not a high price if Bitcoin can improve transaction speeds and lower transaction fees. As long as it outperforms regular methods of payment on these two benchmarks, people will keep flocking to it. Compared to the amount of money that is being moved around internationally, the amount of money in Bitcoin is still no more than a wet fart. 50k in 10 years or by 2030 is not even close to an optimistic estimate as long as Bitcoin remains on top from a technological point of view.

This is true. The August 1 or what will happen in August will be the next page of btc and if sucessfull, the price will be double or triple. The 2018 mark on 5000 dollars is just a speculation and I think government and other corporations will take btc seriously if it hits the 5000 dollars and above and they will try to enter it's world and this will be a tough battle on both sides.

Government can make a big impact like making btc illegal or make media to try to destroy btc and I hope that won't happen.

I would be quite surprised if Governments weren't taking Bitcoin & co seriously already. It's just that rolling out policies is an extremely inefficient and slow process. It'll probably be too late for governments to intervene in any meaningful way by the time they're actually ready to do so, lol...

$50k? I guess all the above replies made it clear that it's MOST PROBABLY impossible for bitcoin to reach $50k in an year.
If the forks go well, we get more investors (highly likely), more people shift to using bitcoins (highly likely) we can take bitcoin to around 4-5k USD.
I won't be surprised if an outbreak occurs and suddenly a lot of banks and institutions start accepting bitcoins it may even reach $10k+ in an year.

No one would able to answer your question since most people or all do have the same questions on mind on which what would be the price situation of bitcoin on upcoming year 2018. Knowing of on the new chapter on its life when theres an another coin related to it specially when it splits on august 1. We wont know and no human can predict on the things might happen later on that's why we always say numbers either or unrealistic ones.

It's better to wait and watch what happen to bitcoin. What we can do is just invest money into it and pray that it hits the jackpot real soon. Thoughts on bitcoin reaching the hallmark of 50 K is far from now. The technology is still evolving. Bitcoin is not magical currency which will turn to 50k like in one year. That's impossible. So better just keep doing what we do, save for now. And let bitcoin work for us. :-)

If I think the bitcoin price in 2018 will reach 4000 $
Because the development of bitcoin increasingly in demand by the world community

A guy is going crazy because of bitcoin, do not live in dreams, we should look at reality, bitcoin is slowly losing power, it is no longer the dominant currency of all markets. It may go up, but it will take slow steps.

I don't think so. I believe that the price of Bitcoin will stay between 10k and 20k!

I think that Bitcoin price will equality cross the 10000$ mark as Bitcoin is showing very fast growth. We can expect a massive increase in the popularity and acceptance of Bitcoin by 2018.

Slowness doesn't belong to Bitcoin. We are talking about one year, let me tell you what could happen in one year. Segwit gets activated, leading to 2MB hard fork. This will split into two major Bitcoins- out of which one is we are speculating now and other Segwit one. Segwit Bitcoin will be backed by >90% miners leading most of the users to switch over to it. Afterwards, in three-four months, Segwit bitcoin will take over Bitcoin Core's empire completely. Owing to small fees and fast confirmations, merchants will start accepting Bitcoin largerly.
So in broader frame, after one year, BTC (core) would be $500-600 something whereas BTC (Segwit) would be $10-15k.

Wait a minute!, I do not understand why you say that BTC is slowly losing power, Being currently the best listed on the market, Not even the top 2 coin has been able to approach at half of its value, It is currently much more accepted than any other.

50k is a hell of a lot.  I'd be thrilled to see 5k next year.

Any higher than that I hope for, but don't want to get too excited!

Well BTC is the most unpredictable currency in the world, one can't say anything with 100% belief about the saying, as we all know that it is widely volatile so sometimes the predictions go wrong but one of the prediction that have been made about it's price up to 50k in near future is not possible. It can reach to 5K in 2018 but not to 50k.

Fluctuations continue to happen in bitcoin and all can happen, 50k USD / BTC in 2018 might happen, we have seen this year bitcoin price is very good and almost touch 3k USD. If this keeps getting better, I'm pretty sure it's 50k USD / BTC can achieved in 2018.

I think that bitcoin may go into bear market in 2018 after all 2 years with bull market. My expection is still higher than today's price but not so high. $3500s.

I hope in the beginning of 2018 bitcoin prices will increase dramatically, and i have a prediction that maybe the price of bitcoin can reach $ 3000, and i think with that price of bitcoin users will get a good impact.

But is $3500 not high enough for you? Bitcoin price is really a very difficult task for even a experienced market analyst and I haven't seen a market that will have a bullish run for a year specially bitcoin. So I don't believed that bitcoin will be bullish in 2018.


Thank you for giving us a good vision for what the price of bitcoin maybe. 2018 will be really a good year for bitcoin specially their is a lot of activity going on regarding the block size. This will make bitcoin soar to new places if the block size increase has been implemented in the future.

But $3,5k Welcome to today.

Ha nice! I was just laughing reading these posts about $3k-$4k by the end of next year being predicted like 9 days ago and now we're at $3400.

No way in hell btc will be $50k in 2018. I'd say absolute earliest it could reach $50k is 2020, but probably more like 2022. $10k is a great doable goal for next year though.

Bitcoin prices are currently in the range 3400USD up to 3500USD, this is a very good achievement. Bitcoin prices increased rapidly in August. If you look at current rising trend then I am sure that bitcoin price could exceed 5000USD at the beginning of 2018. We are all optimistic that the more bitcoin is used the higher the bitcoin price. So continue to use and share knowledge about bitcoin that is known to others who are not familiar with bitcoin.

Congratulations to those realistic predictions, we had hit $3,400 - $3,500 very soon. And it's more possible that we will be seeing it add another 20% before the end of the year. By 2018, I guess we have to see bitcoin very well at $10,000 and this is going to be the start of bitcoin seeing it at 5 digit value dollar.

Wow you looked so good in prediction of bitcoin fluctuation in the market. Me too I'm just looking for $3500 to $4000 before end of the year, however I know it hard to get $4000 but we need to believe to the potential of bitcoin. Also we need to looked forward for any possibility.

$50k is a long time we can reach but in future, I am sure that we can through that price. I think we need to reach $3,5xx and then $4,xxx and then $5,xxx until  this year and then in 2018, we can reach new level for bitcoin because I think in that year, many people is using bitcoin and I hope in that year, bitcoin will be approved by many country.

Now already price is around 3700$ and above now. Before segwit 2x activation price was seems around 3200$ only. After activation price bump more 500$ in the price chart. We need to more adoption or any upgrade implementation happen on bitcoin to see this price.

i think bitcoin price in 2018 can reach to 4000 dollar
and price always above 4000 dollar, if without problem

We do not know what will happen in 2018, but I predict that bitcoin will get a tough competitor that is bitcoin cash, maybe bitcoin cash will surpass the bitcoin price in 2018. hence I suggest that for us to plant stock in bitcoin cash from now

I think your expectation for bitcoin to reach  $50,000 is borne out of the fact that you want to become rich over night with maybe the little amount of Satoshi in your possession. Although is not as easy as that OP. Although am in support of the people who project  $5000 to $10,000 before the end of 2018.

I strongly believe that we'll be touching the $4000 level this year, but there is no way we can keep it there without knowing what will happen in November. In an ideal situation, we'll likely see the price go to the $5000 level this year. If the market reacts negatively in the run-up to November, we'll be hovering just above the $2000 level again. Essentially, even if the price is going to tank that deep, we'll still be in a great profitable position. Seriously, who would have thought that the market would double in value in such a short period of time? I think if we would be touching the $2000 level for the first time right now, we would be equally as happy. ;)

I think that you are too optimistic.I hope that if this same bullish trend continues,then for sure,bitcoin would cross $5000 in 2018.Legalization of bitcoin in more countries like india,south korea and mass adoption of bitcoins world wide would help bitcoin to cross that price.Some people say that there would be another hard fork on november.So,we have to just wait and watch what happens at that time.

In the year 2018 I see bitcoin trading around $5000 as that is likely to achieve in coming months or may be next year but I don't think that it can achieve that high price of $50k in this short span of time its too high to expect from bitcoins.

I'm predicting $5k end of this year, $10k in 2018.

But honestly I think 2018 is gonna be the year when bitcoin hits the main stream investors. Institutional investors and whatnot. Right now bitcoin is just this weird thing to most people, they think everyone in bitcoin is gonna lose all their money and they would never invest in it. But investment companies seem to be getting ready to start diving in to bitcoin and allowing people to invest in bitcoin through them. I think that will start taking place over the course of 2018 to a decently large degree and I think that could lead bitcoin to have another year like 2017 in which it increases by several fold. Maybe hitting $20k in 2018. That'll be the very beginning of mainstream adoption of bitcoin as the price booms ever higher into 5 digits.

There is obviously no guarantees of where the bitcoin price would be at next year, but i really don't think that 50k USD is very likely at all just like you think. There is a slight possibility IF a major economic collapse happened overnight with the fiat economy but imo that's probably not going to happen this decade.

However if you lowered the figure to $10k next year, there is a real possibility that might happen.


That could be possible. I do think that bitcoin is likely to hit $5k at least by the end of next year, i'm just not sure whether it has enough fuel left in the tank to triple in price in one year again, repeating this year's phenomenon.  :-\

If we assume that the price of bitcoin is increasing every year a bit more than 100% then the price of bitcoin in 2018 will be about $ 8,000. It's real. The most important thing that the governments of the world banded together and began a war against bitcoin. It won't stop bitcoin, but to reduce the price can.

If minimum Bitcoin price during 2018 will be $4000, then maximum will fro sure be over $10k.   I do think this as quite optimistic prediction, altho there ofcourse are chances it happen.  I think more realistic are that Bitcoin price in 2018 will be from $2000 to $6000.

Price of 50k is very big and for it impossible to happen. Maybe the price of bitcoin in 2018 is 5000 dollars plus because many people buy bitcoin so its possible to reach that price.

There are some speculation that bitcoin price will reach 50K. Why not? This is a good vision, but going back to reality we can never expect it to happen on 2018, possibly 8-10 years from now. And that too near, a good time to invest. But sad to say, bitcoin is really unpredictable in fact we can never tell what will be the price on the coming days. So what we have to do is just to be Hopeful, hopeful that bit coin will not crash but soar instead. This is whats sure for 2018, bitcoin will  still go crazy.

I think depending the decision of government about Bitcoin in future, if Bitcoin can attractive many investor and billionaire invest to it, the government will don't skip opportunity accept Bitcoin as Japan for improve their country economic.

This is really not gonna happen this year and that's for sure.
Although it can possibly happen in a decade or so but not by any chance in this year.
You can aim for at most $5k for this Christmas not more than that.

If we are talking about possibilities, then reaching 50k USD by 2018 is possible. However, in practicality, that price is very absurd. It would be great if our Bitcoin gets a huge increase, right? However, I think that Bitcoin cannot sustain that price. A huge dump will certainly occur.

I think that 5000 USD will be fair  enough and it will reach about 8000 to 10,000 USD at the end of 2018.

Don't think 50K is possible, the figure seems too high and you are talking about more than 10 times the price increase of bitcoin for it to reach the figure. But who knows, maybe it will be possible and we will be all rich.

I think 5K will be a more realistic figure, especially if a dump happens soon and we lose quite a bit of money and we need some time to recover from loses. At the end of 2018, 8K would be a pretty reasonable figure.

Good Luck.

$ 50,000 is too fantastic. I'm sure that in 2018 the price will not be above $ 8,000. This is also a very good result. According to my projections, this price can only be in 4-5 years. If the Americans will not start a war with bitcoin.

Everything is possible my friend but 50k usd is too early. I can say that 10k or 20k USD is a realistic prediction. The $50,000 might happen maybe after 5 or more years. Judging by the spikes of bitcoin, it's really impossible on the year 2018 to reach 50k USD.
