I don't think the price will be the most important thing. Other things that I think will be important are -

- The number of coins locked in wallets for long term storage.
- The impact that futures trading has had on Bitcoin
- Transaction costs
- How far Bitcoin has moved towards being "intelligent money"
- Whether FedCoin has been announced or released.
- The results of investigations into "hacked" exchanges.

and a few more things like that.

Since my last post of Feb 02 2018, Bitcoin price went up to $10,500, see chart

Not bad, but we still are not near the highest price of BTC which was $19,400. The chart shows this moment was on Dec 11 2017

if your aiming for another bump like what had happen last december,maybe whats better is stop and lets just be contented on what prices bitcoin can give us now..because of some corrections and fuds,with bad news from all over the world,this effects the recovery of bitcoin price,thats why its getting harder to have some big growth,but dont lose faith because this great coin is trien and tested for how many years.

SillyGirl, price of 1 BTC was not 1029$ at Dec 31 2017,maybe you was thinking on December 2016.At the end of last year price was around 13 000$.Some forecasts and speculations say that price could reach to 40 000$ or maybe 50 000$ in this year,but since you ask for February of next year price could be much lower at that time because of correction which would probably follow after new ATH.

We can only speculate about price one year from now,but if price go to 40 000$ and then we see correction of 50%-possible price at this time next year could be around 20 000$.

you can also look at this the other way! price went up to current levels from $5900 so it is up nearly twice now.
or you can even zoom out more and see the rise in the bigger picture meaning for example last year price was near $2000 around the same time and now it is 5 times more than that!

also there are far better websites to look at bitcoin charts than the links you are posting here!

"FedCoin" will be crucial, and I personally can't wait. Bitcoin is a direct opposing force to the concept of "FedCoin", it's like a ying and yang of sorts. What I mean is, for a closed source Orwellian nightmare money, an open source freedom money must exist, and this is Bitcoin. Once people realize this dichotomy, they will need to choose to either be a slave or a free man. They will be forced to acknowledge Bitcoin and what it offers.

After you understand that fact, if it's slower or faster or cheaper or more expensive becomes less relevant. Censorship resistant will be the number one feature that differentiates it from the "FedCoin" nightmare.

I don't expect any major change for Bitcoin in next 12 months.

The price is stable and I don't think LN or any other major improvement will be implemented to the end of the year.

You have to understand in order to even come close to the all time high levels, we need a huge load of speculation to start boiling up again, or we are up for a slower but more steady way up with a few bumps here and there.

In case of the first mentioned option, speculation needs to be based on something, just like we had the future markets fill up that role. Right now, there is nothing that even indicates new developments in that aspect.

For that reason I am more inclined to believe that we will follow the latter option, which is a slow journey, and that till lightning network becomes the next hype event the market will go nuts over. Patience is key now.

Yeah me neither. Although we know that anything can happen at any time.
But some slow months without any real price action is what I believe is going to happen.
In terms of Lightning any significant impact in terms of adoption and therefore a reaction of the price won't happen within the next 12 months. It's still very early alpha. Bu there's no reason to rush. A year passes by pretty fast. Let's do things properly. It will pay off no doubt!

But try to look at this price, everything is starting to experience stable conditions and even bitcoin prices have started to increase. I'm glad to see that because then people can take advantage of the margin of the sale and purchase of bitcoin. In the absence of rapid price changes it is predictable that bitcoin will decrease the user because one of the purposes of using bitcoin today is to be an investment. Bitcoin prices can even rise to unexpected and even decline very quickly too. Especially if bitcoin can be recognized and made regulation by the government then cryptocurrencies will be increasing. We should all continue to support cryptocurrency because the future of bitcoin depends on what we do today.
