The publicity that this is going to add to Bitcoin is huge. With the largest social network backing blockchain technologies, not only is the Facebook stock going to go up, but I believe Bitcoin is going go up with the news as well. Of course, this is all contingent on facebook actually going through with the plan. I actually think they'll be able to benefit not only through blockchain technology, but also through utilizing cryptocurrency payments on their games and whatnot. Games like Farmville made so much money; if they add cyrpto to that, I can only see their worth rising.
I think, the price of Bitcoin can go more than $30,000 in this year of 2018. Why ? Because we have already experienced the exact same experience in previous year. But that can only happen in certain cases. I honestly do not know about this year. In the past year, it could happen because there has been a very drastic price reduction. But in the end the price of Bitcoin keeps rising drastically more than many people expect. But I have predicted this and I have never hesitated with Bitcoin. But I was beginning to doubt something. I'm confused and wondering about something. How would it be if the price of Bitcoin could reach $ 1,000,000? Is it possible that the price of Bitcoin reaches $ 1 million? If that is possible, then how much fee should we pay? |

Bitcoin could be at $40,000 at the end of 2018. It easily could," Michael Novogratz says on CNBC's "Fast Money Ethereum, which I think just touched $500 or is getting close, could be triple where it is as well," adds Novogratz, formerly a macro hedge fund manager at Fortress Investment Group.
If we take into account that bitcoin grew more than 1300% last year, a growth to $40,000 would be perfectly possible since it would only mean an increase of 300% on an annual basis and, in fact, maybe a growth of this magnitude would be a clear signal of a potential slowdown in the bitcoin growth, which will not be a bad thing as it significantly would reduce the high volatility that characterized it throughout 2017. I guess Bitcoin will rise more than that amount of money you mention above, OP. In my opinion, Bitcoin price will go up pretty fast in 2018. Do you remember the drastic increase of Bitcoin prices last year? If you remember then you know also that the price of Bitcoin can increase to 10-fold in 1 month. That can happen, but a fall in prices can also happen. Even a fall in prices can lead to a fall in prices to half of the Bitcoin price. But we need not fear, because I'm sure Bitcoin price will increase sharply this year. I hope Bitcoin will continue to increase to give me a lot of profit, hahaha. |

Of course some altcoins are taking part in the price rise in which the ripple has got first priority , many people are currently moving from other altcoins to ripple because it market capitalisation can be seen much higher than ethereum. I agree good potential altcoins are the another way to benifit investors but no reason to move from bitcoin. I too hold some amount of ripple but i am also holding in bitcoin
In my opinion, Bitcoin price will go up drastically in 2018. I think it's hard enough to say that Bitcoin will shine again in 2018. Because I think Bitcoin always shines every year, years past. I can say that Bitcoin is always increasing in price every year and every time, so there's nothing to be honored again. We all know that the decrease in cryptocurrency is common and Bitcoin also experiences it. Bitcoin need not be flattered anymore because everyone is very familiar with this one cryptocurrency. I think it's time to look at Altcoin because I think Altcoin also has great potential. We have to choose the right Altcoin to invest so we have a backup plan and can get a lot of profit from Altcoin. |

I recently invested in bitcoin, I have learned a lot on the internet about the predictions and analysis. In my opinion, the BTC has reached the $ 20000 level by the end of 2017, and the value will increase in 2018, but the value increase is slower.
The year 2018 is started and the time comes when the dreams will come true the demand of bitcoin in market will increase and increase, that is the reason in every moment thousands of investors are join bitcoin and trading for bitcoin for their better future. The price of bitcoin is rising again and the investors are happy to see this. They are now in the position to sell their altcoins and earn money. The new investor also has a chance to increase their income by trading of bitcoin. Well, if that's the case, I guess I'll just collect Bitcoin always at all times. I will try to collect Bitcoin and Ethereum as much as possible and invest or wait for the next few years. I hope I can invest and collect enough money to earn a lot of profit in a year. Currently people are switching to Ethereum because the fee is still a bit, unlike Bitcoin. But I hope people can be wiser to use Bitcoin and still pay me with Bitcoin. I hope also Ethereum can grow rapidly in 2018 is like Bitcoin and can follow in the footsteps of Bitcoin. In my opinion, Bitcoin price will go up drastically in 2018. |

Hopefully, we are going to be able to move onward and upwards now. Maybe $20k? Would that not be a bad thing to request from these daily weighted charts. I doubt that you, dooglus, are going to be out of a job in regards to this thread in the next few months... and perhaps bitcoin daily weighted prices could take 6 months or longer to put you out of a job...  just imagine, permanent employment, is that possible? Maybe if Macafee does not eat his dick, then you are gonna stay fairly busy, in regards to this thread, until 2020. No? Well, very difficult to answer and tell it. To me, Bitcoin always surprises every time, every year, every month, and even every week. What I never forget is when the price of Bitcoin jumped dramatically to 10-fold in 1 year, then dropped to half within 1 month. At that time the price of Bitcoin had dropped to reach $ 3000. Then the price was settled for several weeks. It makes many people panic and sell their Bitcoin. But not a few also take advantage of the situation to buy and collect Bitcoin as much as possible. At that moment I already had the feeling that Bitcoin would not fall like that. It's just a regular cryptocurrency phenomenon. And it was true. Bitcoin price suddenly go up and reach $10,000 in a short time. |

In 2017 september btc price under 3000$.However it jumped to 18000$ in the begining of this month and now it around 13000$.Will it jump back to 18000$ or more in 2018 january
It even reached $20,000 in other exchanges in December of 2017. There is no reason why it cannot go beyond that within January of this year. There is no problem on the way for Bitcoin right now. Of course the old concerns about relatively high transaction fees as well as occasional delays in confirmation time are old problems that have proven to be a problem to many but not to the rest. Proof of this is the continually increasing Bitcoin value despite these problems still present. I think Bitcoin will increase in price. Price reductions may occur in various aspects and conditions. But it does not matter because Bitcoin's price will keep rising beyond the price drop. We can only hope that the price of Bitcoin will increase in terms of price. I myself can only collect Bitcoin as much as possible to invest and get a lot of profit. But I have a concern that I am worried about increasing prices, it means that Bitcoin fees and transactions will increase as well. I'm afraid I'll get Bitcoin getting harder and harder to invest. Hopefully it does not happen. Maybe Ethereum can be alternative. |

I once read an article that says bitcoin is used as a payment transaction for terrorists and hackers. And maybe you guys in this forum also already know it. But here i want to convey my personal opinion in that matter. I think that internet and bitcoin interrelated. Many terrorists and criminals use internet .so also with bitcoin which used perpetrator However, despite all these issues, do people make concrete efforts to ban the internet? No. Not because removing and banning Bitcoin is difficult.
Perhaps the most intense bitcoin opposition has come from the police and security agencies, who point out that a high proportion of bitcoin users are criminals involved in the sale of weapons, young pornography you, terrorist, illegal cash flow and extortion. For example, a recent high-profile cybercrime crime is ransomware. Hackers break into a hospital's data, for example, encrypting the data and request that the hospital only receive the decryption key to restore the data after they transfer a large bitcoin to him. Let alone Bitcoin, cash and flat money alone can be used for criminal transactions. Bitcoin is an encrypted currency that can be used by anyone and there is no limit. We can do transaction anytime with any amount and as much as we want. That is the basic concept and purpose of creating cryptocurrency. All cryptocurrencies can be used like that, not just Bitcoin. With such functions and facilities, it can be used and exploited by criminals. Terrorists, drug dealers, illegal weapons sellers, human trafficking and so on. As the technology and the times grow, criminals will also develop and commit crimes with more facilities. |

If a government put a tax on bitcoin this will be the disadvantage for us. Because when it's happend the government will get some of our income that may affect in our budget. But on the other hand it is also a good advantage for us. When government put a tax that means bitcoin is already legal. And when it became legal the us of it will be widen. And more benefits that we will get because bitcoin will be more popular to our country. But when government did not succeed to put a tax on bitcoin they will put a high tax for the accessories or instrument in bitcoin operation like internet.
I do not think the government can put taxes on Bitcoin. We must know that the government can not interfere with Bitcoin. The government can only put taxes in banks and local currency only. If we use Bitcoin transactions, the government can not interfere and we are free to do anything. The transaction from Bitcoin is not limited by anything, we can deal with any amount yes even now Bitcoin fee is very large. We can also do transactions whenever and as much as using Bitcoin. But about the future and development of technological sophistication in the government, I do not know. Perhaps the Government will find a way to manipulate Bitcoin and society. |

Just like me, I simply promote and ICO and can't believe I got paid for around 2 eth. In my country it is very huge. Cant believe how lucky I am as I didn't have good paying job yet. Now, I try to invest it to make more money for my future. I need a house and new family. Many people are saved economically by the presence of bitcoin. My friends and I are also lucky to get to know bitcoin. I was taught by my close friend about trading dibitcoin. Coming from the salary money, I started working and trading in bitcoin. Despite I haven't got many advantages, I am grateful that my financial changes slowly.
Yes, it is true that we must have additional income. We should not rely solely on the main job. If we want to be rich, we must have a lot of effort or income from work that suits us. Bitcoin is one solution for us to invest. I'm so lucky to get to know Bitcoin since I was in school. I know Bitcoin from the internet, more precisely from Google. First time I knew Bitcoin, I was hesitant and afraid to invest because I doubt if the price of Bitcoin will decline or just disappear. But after knowing the development price, I am not afraid anymore. Now, I just want to collect as much as Bitcoin as I can and wait it for several years. |

Playing with the profit is actually the best way of gambling. That way you are not risking anyone else's money or your own hard earned money or your savings. Yes you will certainly start for the first time with some amount of your savings or for that matter your hard earned money, but once you replenished your initial amount that you kept in, you should be playing with your profit only. That way you will have nothing to lose because you are playing with something that you just won in the same game and it isnt your savings.
I think it depends on everyone's opinion, or even one's lifestyle. Depending also on the economy of people we know it's all different. There are rich people who like to gamble so it will always and keep gambling whatever happens because they like it. There are also rich people who gamble because they want to get a profit so they will manage their money as possible. There are also poor people who use gambling as one source of their income so they will be more careful to manage their finances. But there are also ordinary people who are addicted to gambling so will gamble no matter what happens. |

It can be a way only in luck but still there's a strategy in every gambling here and in math also,usually if you play dice you will bet in that low at first then add just a little to have profit and sometimes you need to bet 3x high so you need to calculate that for more good when you play.I think also you need big btc here when you play because it depends in that or how far can you bet.
Yeah right, that's what I think. Your opinion is exactly the same as I mean, hahaha. I think most of the gambling games need luck. You must be really lucky if you want to gamble. With that luck you can also win a lot of money. But I heard, there are some gambling games you can play with the right math, strategy, and calculation formula. I do not really know about gambling like that, because for me all the gambling takes the luck. But I heard that poker game can be manipulated and we can count the cards in order to win. It's just that smart people can do that. And the casino will definitely ban it. |

I sold some at 10,900 hoping it will fall again to rebuy in the 9000's as I purchased some around 10,300... Do you guys think another temporary slump will happen soon? Or cut my losses and rebuy now at over 11k?
The correction has over now and the prices are becoming stable and stands at $11500 and now it dont seems any correction soon so better give up this idea of the prices to go below $10k instead buy now as the prices are going to increase in jan and reach almost $25000 by end.The graphs now point upwards movement and trend will continue in future also so be patient man. First of all, I must know what your purpose is to ask that question. If you intend to buy and invest, you should not wait for the price to fall. Because we never know and will not be able to predict exactly about the impending price decline. So you should buy and collect as much as possible and as quickly as possible. If you want to trade, maybe you can consider again because Bitcoin's current fee is very high. Maybe you can try Ethereum for another alternative. But if you just want a prediction about the impending price cut, I do not think I can answer that. Because predicting it is very difficult considering that January it seems the price will increase drastically. |

What if Bitcoin started acting more like a real currency, becoming more stable on the $14000 to $15000 level without veering too much away from it. Would you support that kind of stability? Would that make Bitcoin a better store of value for you? Would you buy more Bitcoin?
Stability is what this market need and and bitcoin fluctuations and the current volatility make it to look like stocks and security. We need stability for bitcoin to be adopted as a store of value and medium of exchange for goods and services. Many retail and wholesale stores are afraid of using bitcoin because its price fluctuate a lot and it has never been stable. However I don't think bitcoin is going to get stable at $14,000 to $15,000 because there is a lot of uncertainty in the market. If I think I'll be confused because my goal is to invest Bitcoin and double my money. I have not been able to invest in gold and land, so a middle person like me can only invest in Bitcoin. But actually there are some types of people who hold Bitcoin. For example like the rich, there are rich people who keep Bitcoin only for transactions only. So they will not care about Bitcoin price increases and will continue to use Bitcoin for transactions. That's because the transaction uses Bitcoin is fairly easy because it only involves barcode on the smartphone only. On the other hand, there are people who save Bitcoin because they believe that Bitcoin could be the currency of the future. |

BTC will survive burst, some other alt coins won't at least on this volume and price. Money will go from one coins to others, new money will come after time and some new coins will rise as good. all this is not overnight take it and leave business, this crypto is long therm. I think, some of top alt coins will go down soon, someone will just pull huuuge amount of money and invest in something else. You just need to follow which coins are owned by who, who have biggest amount of them, what they will do with it etc.coin.
Yes Bitcoin will rise again in 2018, but Bitcoin will experience down as well. Do you remember the very fast change of Bitcoin prices in the past year? At that time the price of Bitcoin had changed drastically within a few weeks. It is very strange but also stressful because many people so sell a lot of Bitcoin. This year is likely to be a special year because I have saved some Bitcoins and are ready to invest into 2018. I'm sure my Bitcoin will grow to so much this year. I wish I could collect more Bitcoin in order to get more profit. And I hope the price of Ethereum will go up too. |

Alts are really having a good time right now and I am sure this is their time to shine. We cannot say how long this is going to be, but for a while now, bitcoin decided to take the huge dominance in the market. It may be up to a month or two, but we cannot really say for now, how long it really would be, but for me, I will just keep monitoring the charts, so I do not end up missing out on any breakout as that seems the easiest way to know what is going to be happening next. Yes Bitcoin will rise again, but at the same time Bitcoin will decrease too. Remember you about the drastic change in Bitcoin prices last year? At that time the price of Bitcoin had changed rapidly within a few weeks. It was amazing to remember that Bitcoin's price could increase in a few months. This year is likely to be a special and amazing year. That's because I've saved some Bitcoin and are ready to jump into January. I'm sure my Bitcoin will double to so much this year. I wish I could collect more Bitcoin in order to get more profit. And I hope Ethereum will be good too. |

Wouldn't it be even more unfair if the early adopters who actually stuck their necks out to make Bitcoin relevant weren't rewarded? At some point in the future, Bitcoin will be regarded as low risk, and low risk ventures rarely yield high returns. It's just standard economics at work. I mean, I guess it kind of sucks how much easier it was to get Bitcoins back then, but Bitcoin was never really meant to equalize wealth -- just access to it. Just take the risk now and you'll still be much better off than even later adopters.
The answer can be yes, can be no. It depends on future situations and conditions. We do not know how Bitcoin will be in the future. All we know is that Bitcoin prices will continue to rise to very high in the future. And people who save Bitcoin in the present, will get a lot of profit and can become rich. But we must know that Bitcoin is not the only source of economy or business or investment that can turn people into riches. There are so many other businesses out there that might be better than Bitcoin. Lots of other investments. So the answer is still uncertain. |

I guarantee you there's people reading this thread with net worths of 10 million dollars on paper right now. Of course it's not really money until you sell and withdraw into fiat. This crypto run could keep going for a long time, or evaporate pretty quickly. Early adopters always have the best advantage. It's always great when a company goes public when they are still small, rather than waiting until they are huge... then you can buy the stock cheap and really ride it up as the company grows. That's what cryptos are.. a growth area.. or they were.
Well, it would be very difficult to answer that question. Because the answer can be many and can be a little. People who have been successful with Bitcoin are people who have invested long or are fortunate enough to harbor Bitcoin when the price is still 1 to 3 digits only. But there are also people who are lucky because they invest with a lot of money so that it can bring big profit in a short time. Or people who invest in a lot of money then suddenly Bitcoin prices so rapidly increased drastically. So, the conclusion is I do not know such person, maybe a lot maybe little. |

I've heard a lot of good news about ETH as of today. So I would choose Eth. Since eth is also one of the top above all coins next to bitcoin if I were you I would choose ETH. Eth since the birth of it have given lots of promising projects. And as you can see now it gains many trust of people who engage in this organization. As per your investment value, if you are willing to lose the $500 then go and invest all of it but if you're afraid to lose all of it, just invest a half or an amount you're not afraid of losing. It is also one of the strategies in investing or to gain profit.
If I had that kind of money, I'd have gone straight to Ethereum. Why did I choose Ethereum? That's because I prefer to choose cryptocurrency or Altcoin which is well known and certain. We all know and know Ethereum, and again we know about price developments and how expensive Ethereum is today. That way, we can freely and will not hesitate to invest into Ethereum. Yes that's just my opinion, but if you have other options maybe you can try. For example if you like doing research and know about the right new Altcoin that can bring profit. There are several ICO and new Altcoin that can bring good profit. |

I will recommend you to divide your portfolio and invest in different coins instead of all in one coin because there is one very good saying that do not put all the eggs in the same basket it's better to divide the eggs in different baskets. Like this you will be more safe and more chances of profits because if you buy only one coin and if it does not go up for a long time you will earn nothing but say like you purchased 5 coins and out of them 3 coins goes up you will get good profit from those 3 and then you can invest that money also in those 2 coins which are still left so like this you will earn double profits.
Wow, that's a lot of money. I think Bitcoin's investment is pretty good. If I had that kind of money, I would have invested directly into Bitcoin with all that money. But if you only have hundreds of dollars, you should invest into Ethereum. That is my advice. But if you're in doubt, you can try investing in some cryptocurrencies at once. Suppose you invest into Bitcoin, then to Ethereum, and Litecoin. That way you have some source of income from investing. And if one of them has trouble, you will not hesitate and be afraid. Please choose your choice. |

Unless you are a big whale and moving around huge amounts and trading a ton, I think I will agree with the above. As for myself, being a micro trader, I now mainly trade in Ethereum markets otherwise all my little profits would be eaten in exchange and Bitcoin high transfer fees. I use Ethereum because it is both cheaper and lighter to move around and trading other ERC20 token markets with ETH seems much more logical to me at this current time, at least until the lightning network hits Bitcoin.
Actually it depends on the situation, in the old days Bitcoin fee is still small and not like today. Now Bitcoin fee is too big and can not be used for micro trading. I think people are smart enough to determine which cryptocurrency is suitable for trading. Rightly you say, people will choose Ethereum for current trading. But for people who want to invest and do long-term trading, may still use Bitcoin. And also for people who like trading with large numbers, may choose Bitcoin and still loyal to Bitcoin. The title of this thread is quite make sense and true. From now, Bitcoin will not be use as trading anymore. |

IMO Bitcoin won't move much for a month or two.
