1 BTC = $5,000 by end of the year!

[hasiramasenju]

i hope that will really happen and if not in this year maybe in the next year or someday but for now reach to $500 is enough for me

If we went to 5k then I would make over $30,000 soooo I would be okay with that.

Nah. The halving is too far away to drive the price over $2k before this year's end. I think that's the absolute roof for this year. I'm confident to say that we will not see $2000 dollar bitcoin (except for some fringe sales, maybe. But definitely not a reliable rise above $2k), not until sometime late 2016 or sometime 2017. $5000 isnt a realistic goal until 2018, I'm afraid.

i mostly think that whales are going to keep the price down to accumulate more then pump the price next year to have better profits.

Thanks for the heads up OP, if we go anywhere near $5000 by the end of the year then I will give you $500 for your little prediction.

If you quote this you know it is here for you to collect should we go over $4000.

However much I would obviously like that I don't see us going over $500 by the end of the year, let alone $5k.

There are a number of threads currently making astronomical price predictions. The shortest term thread claims Bitcoin will go to 1200-1300 by the end of this month. I flatly don't believe Bitcoin's price will reach that target before July 1st. I hope the other longer term prediction threads come true but I'm skeptical. Most of them are similar to this one, and claim Bitcoin will go to thousands of dollars before the end of the year.

that's why I don't sell.  just hold. you can sell off small amounts of your coins at certain levels. 10k, 50k, 100k, 250k.  but always hold majority of coins.  but it will take years. not expecting 5k anytime soon.

It's ok to sell micro parts sometimes to have some fun with your success, but never get addicted to it or you will lose the future rewards.

1 BTC imo has more chance of reaching $50 by the end of the year than $5000.

These super moon threads are just as bad as the super gloom threads.

Saying that though I wish you luck with your $5k valuation for the end of the year.

In my opinion is more likely $50k until the end of year than 50 by the end of year, and I would not bet 1 cent for BTC reaching 50k this year, no matter the odds
