There have been people predicting BTC will be $0 or $1,000,000 in the same time frame, these are all wild speculation with no real basis. You cannot simply extrapolate forwards from the 2017 bull run as that was an outlier that is not likely to be repeated again. Odds are it will stay roughly where it is for now until there is REASON for growth, which doesn't look too far away with lightning coming.
Lightning is live now, the network is continuing to grow, there is positivity bubbling up for Bitcoin. The altcoins are likely going to die, ETH is showing signs of this right now. Since Bitcoin has relatively low liquidity, the potential for a bull run similar to 2017 is still there. I think that the decision the SEC will make on sept 30 for the Vaneck ETF will be a driver for what the end of 2018/2019 holds for Bitcoin. A lot of speculators are waiting for an ETF (been talking about it since 2014) and the Vaneck/Solidx ETF seems to be the most promising proposal so far. The SEC commissioner is also pro Bitcoin ETF. If it gets approved that could cause enough hype to end the bear market and start the reversal. However, if it gets denied, I'm pretty certain we will see large panic sells that will drive the price down and into a crypto winter. Altcoins might not have the growth that bitcoin has had, but I doubt they will die.

of course at the end of the year, but that seems impossible now. it's very difficult for bitcoin to reach $ 20k, and in my opinion it won't happen anytime soon.
Sometimes things aren't what they seem though

One of the reasons why they don't accept bitcoins is volatility.
They have so much money I don't know how much the volatility would really hurt them in reality. Anyway, with enough money, you don't have to take big risks.

Plenty of them do, it is an open market, and everyone has a choice as to where they invest their money into, but as for you referring to it as a secret, I disagree, not everyone knows what and when you invest your money on, so you don't expect them just because they are a figure in the society to come telling you where they invest their money into.
For some politicians it might be a good idea to keep quiet about it anyway.

This will never happen, smartphone technology can't keep up and compete with mining tech and power.

I think it is not because Bitcoin is still a small market, not really large, and with the development of supply and demand. The biggest ball of history has not yet appeared.
Yes bitcoin needs to grow more, it's still relatively small. So how can one speak of the biggest bubble?

Sorry to hear for your loss, you already made a big loss & I hope you should have to take some lesson from this loss & never repeat it. Only use that money which you can afford & never buy bitcoins in a pump always try to buy in dump.
I'll bet you that around that time lot's of people on bitcointalk were saying or thinking btc would go to 30,40,50k. Everyone was hyping bitcoin, it's easy to say in hindsight you shouldn't have bought in a pump, while at the time of investing people are telling him to buy.

I don't think anybody can make that much but I heard about people joined early that are making $500-$1000 a month. I joined about one month ago and already have more than 800 referrals and I am making about $1 per day worth of bitcoin. Here it is a screenshot of my account: Nobody is getting 50k a month. Referral scheme scam.

I wonder if there is a way to take advantage of this fact. For example, the first thing that comes to mind is arbitrage trading. If you know someone in Iran and if you can move money across the border, probably you can. The other question is if this is just a temporary spike.
Yes it could be done but seems it will be really hard cause of the embargo by the US. I dont think you could even move a dollar into iran and seems like US will think another way to block transaction from iran evem though they using bitcoin or any other crypto to make outside transactions. Yep no way to arbitrage anyway unless you deal with cash and have the right connections.

What is the actual effect of market manipulation of a token or coin and what is the effects and is it necessary to manipulate market of a particular token or coin.. Who are the team behind market manipulation?
Every shitcoin needs to be manipulated, who would really invest in shitcoins The people behind the manipulation are the people with the majority of coins, usually the shitcoin devs themselves.

So, I thought the bitcoin's volatility attribute was being checked by the SEC and other world financial bodies, if so, why the sharp price fall that just happened in about an hour ago?
A 300USD price fall is nothing in the world of bitcoin to be honest.

Supposedly Satoshi holds over 1 million bitcoins, do you guys think he will ever end up selling his stash off? At one point he was worth over 20 billion dollars and at current prices he is worth over 7 billion dollars which is a staggering amount.
If anything he should have sold at 20k, which he would have done if he was in it for the money.

IS this possible to make bitcoin mastercard. Mastercard is very helpfull for giving payment. We can carry it in anywhere. Is this possible world wide it will show his power.
ITS JUST MY OPINION.
It's one of the main reasons we want to use bitcoin, to get rid of these centralized scammers.

We know Bitcoin is one of the powerful and top coin in marketplace. But world wide all county are announced its illegal. I personally think that bitcoin is very help us for paying any payment. Its has many facility. But our government are announced its illegal
Worldwide all countries have announced it's illegal? What on earth are you smoking?

It's a serious issue. Don't join these scam bounty + kyc projects, they will stop asking for it when they see people don't have any interest in them.

The Ethereum at its best even bitcoin ! Maybe he'll say that bitcoin is also a Scam ?! Let go digging in your mixer and will not go where he is not asked !
Don't forget bitcoin isn't the one that distributed 70 million coins before launch in an ico.

What the Hell is going on with Crypto market? Bitcoin drops from $19,000 to $6000 ETH dumps from $1400 to $250 today NEO: $150 to $15 BTG: $400 to $13
God Save Us! Please.
It's like a domino effect when everything is pegged to 1 cryptocurrency, not much we can do about that.

So saw many self airdrops of ERC20 tokens and wave platforms in social media. They would promise their investors a cheap token price purchase, and in turn promise a good listing price at the exchange. 98% of these self airdrop never make it to exchange, and the few that get listed in a decentralized exchange get pumped for 2hrs and there after dumped forever. Why do you think people still patronize these scamming project and not study good ICOs and buy?
For them getting lucky on one coin will be worth it. For them it is like hitting the lottery, which personally i do not think is called investing but gambling. They are betting on some coins that has low potential. They do not realize they are just making the creator of the coins richer and them poorer. Again before you invest on anything study it. Check if this coin has a real potential. You are right, investing is fun for those who have experience, but they also need to know not only the real potential coins they need to know, they also need to know that many coins are now irresponsible, including the token project they run, which ends in fraud . I don't know what else people expect out of these tokens, useless things never have any value.

Don't know about a dedicated p&d team but I think it's likely they have partaken in manipulative trades.

I think the smart contract technology could be a gamechanger for bitcoin, even more usability.
