1 BTC = 1000$ in 2016

[bit1]

It is likely to reach this value again soon but  to be a new floor is needed something more than halving only.

youre still dreaming my friend,wake up. bitcoin will not even  touch the 600$ marked this year, maybe we will wait for  decades to go up to your prediction of 1000=1 btc.for the meantime lets accept that bitcoin will onlly play to 450 -390 this year.

I agree that the top of the halving action should be somewhere at $500-600. Definitely not more than that.
Decades to $1000. I don't know. I would be careful with both overly bullish and overly bearish calls. A lot depends on the fundamental developments.

Some two months back no one expected bitcoin prices would have doubled from $220 price levels. Same way, you can not predict exactly what will happen around halving. I expect prices to go beyond $1000 price levels after halving occurs.

rebounding from an absolute bottom (less than 20% of the last peak, and the ath at the same time) is something different than going from $400 to $1000. It was way much easier to ignite some rise after 18 months of bear. Growing by factor 2.5 from where we are now would require some solid arguments (apart from halving) plus a lot of new money flowing into bitcoin (these who bought between $200 and here won't be holding all the way to $1000, I don't need to convince anybody about it, right?). that is why, I simply don't see it. more, it is a complete dreamland territory.

you are right that bitcoin value had been doubled. but at the same time looking fluctuations the value which i feel it might be around $500-$600. even i expect it should go beyond $1000.

That's the whole thing. People expect too much from the Bitcoin price. Not many people pay attention to the fact that there is more supply than demand at the moment. It's actually a great thing that the price maintained its position above $400 this year.

Well,there is also no reason for it to be lower than this and people who bought when it was the highest are not going to dump anyways.If we don't see any strong rules getting passed against it in near future then it could touch the thousand dollar mark in a couple of years.

[romero121]

By the end of the year the price can be seen around the range of $800 to $1000.
This price is expected to grow higher than $1000 by the mid of year 2017.

For now, apart from the halving hype (halving is still far away), there are no arguments for higher prices. No new fundamental developments, no reasons for new money to flow into Bitcoin.
Also, people who bought at sub $300 prices, will wait for the halving effect and take profits as soon as the price is ripe.

I think you are way to optimistic. The price will grow but not to 800 that's just to big of an increase.
At best i think we can the price to go around 650/700 dollar at the end of this year.

I think Bitcoin price will be arroud 350 to 400 after the halving, now ethereum is getting bigger and bigger.

ethereum is just a big bubble about to burst. and also the bigger it gets the higher the chance of it getting burst and the also the bigger the fall.

bitcoin on the other hand has sustained this level of market cap for years. and it is growing each day. this year when the effects of all the FUD in the last months wear off the price is going to jump, because it was kept down this long.

Absolutely true. ETH is overhyped at the moment. As all alts it goes through the pump phase (now) and will inevitably be dumped at some point as well. Only after that we will be able to evaluate what is worth and where it is.

How is ETH getting bigger and bigger when the one who got the halving is bitcoin
Anyway, i agree with the guys above me, ETH is most likely a bubble that can burst anytime
And i do believe that the price of BTC will increase after halving, that's why there are many speculators buying bitcoin and increasing it prices

i must admit. the ethereum pump is quite impressive with the gigantic volumes, but it won't last. it's just a matter of time before the ethereum price will come down to normal standards. the block halving will bring the price to anything higher than $500 the comming months.

bitcoin will reach more than $600 after halving, i'm sure with this. even ethereum become bigger now i'm sure not in long time ethereum will down and ethereum will not stay same on level like bitcoin. looks who already buy ethereum now will get lost if they not sell it now because it's just manipulation price by some people.

[Bobsurplus]

More like 1 eth will be worth $1000 in 2016 while btc may be worth just $100.

Yes but I think bitcoin will take a long time to achieve this magical figure of $1k as its not that easy to reach there, as at a moment we are not even half price of it, so I think we will have to wait for a longer period of time.

nah you're going overboard with this etheruem thing, don't dream too much, it can fall back at any time, not lower than 0.01, but still along way for compete with bitcoin

the current bitcoin value has proven that is holding storng, so i can not see any sub 350-380 anymore

[boopy265420]

It is quite possible to see 1000 $ or even more for 1 BTC in this year.I am not over estimating the factor of block halving but this time taking everything in calculation one can easily realize that there is huge price increase due in Bitcoin market after current rises in other markets.

[victoryboy]

My prediction is we will have all time high prices in next couple of months.It is very difficult to predict the market as few weeks ago everyone was shouting out for furthers drops but markets turns in opposites sides and we saw increase in price of bitcoin.

[trafficolaa]

I am quite sure about bitcoin will rise more than $1000 as it have really big community behind it and i think after block halving price will sky rocket and will be more at more stable floor even it can go its all time high price into this year.

[jtalk]

Bitcoin is real thing and is under valued.Once the fabricated issued will be finished we will see bounce back in price which will take it over $ 1000 easily.Price is to go much more higher even mBtc will be minimum measuring element for each dollar.
