I hope that you said could become a reality. But I agree with you, although there are bad issues about bitcoin but it was only temporary and certainly recover again. It has been proven now bitcoin prices little by little increase, I believe this will continue to happen for a long time. I also believe that bitcoin will reach $ 2000 by the end of year, but to reach it will experience price fluctuations several times. And yes I agree with you that 2017 was a great year for bitcoin.

I also believe in bitcoin, it should grow well by the end of the year and bring everyone a good profit. I hope there will be no more panic which will prevent the bitcoin from growing.

I'm not a fortune teller or some sort of teller but i'm just a bitcoin believer and i believe that there is a high potential for bitcoin and i can say that this year will be like more on ups for bitcoin because based in the first entry of the year, we already see that the price is keep on climbing up and there is no surprise for me to see that bitcoin will get a doubled price before this year ends. Aim high for bitcoin and be a bitcoin believer because you will see what i'm saying before this year will end.

I am happy to read all the positive prediction about bitcoin this year and i think panic selling can help to increase the bitcoin price because the demand will increase but panic selling of bitcoin ofcourse it is not good for the investor they miss the chance of getting good profit when the price of bitcoin goes high.

Yeah though I think most of us here are already aware that the drop in price only gives us more opportunity to acquire more btcs to hold on to. Though the drop this time is not as I expected as it's still pretty high compared to the beginning of this year and it went down for only a couple of days. I wasn't able to buy btcs during that because of that as I expected it to be a bit more lower

Can you give me a reliable link for me too read more about that news. Looks like if that's good news for the bitcoin itself. and i think you if that's the main reason for driven the price of bitcoin right now.

Imo I can surely say that btc will reach 2k$ mark by the september/october this year and maybe fall down for 100$ until the end of the year.
Yes, after Steam and  microsoft, two of the very large companies accepting bitcoin and now Japan, I wouldn't be surprised if we see the great rise in the price even in a week or two maybe a month.

With btc being steady around 1.1k$ atm, I can surely say that we will see 2k$ this year and maybe sooner than we though.

While creating this topic, bitcoin is standing at 618 USD. So I want to know your prediction for the year of 2017. What is the milestone you have targeted?

Will it be able to hold its strength at 750 USD by the end of 2017? Voice your opinions.

Right now the present price of bitcoin now was 1116$ not that bad as much, hope before end of this month it will become totally recover or resume it again to 1300$, because this year 2017 bitcoin will gonna be 2000$ to 3000$.

Your prediction was too far to be happen dude, for what the price now of bitcoin was 1114$ so far, so I think the projection of bitcoin experts  for this year is the one thing that I am holding too believe it. It will really become a 2000$ to 3000$ before end of this year.

Change protocol for bitcoin to have scaling or increased blocksize:
Then price crash down to $260 by Dec. 31, 2017

Change nothing and keep Bitcoin the amazing decentralized immutable pow store of value asset:
Then price will hit above $1,800 by Dec 31, 207

you are right that bitcoin will grow its value at the end of the year and you are right that everyone will get a good profit from bitcoin and i hope bitcoin will be rise its price to 2000 USD in the end of this year.

This is a bold prediction mate. I don't think that $260 price is likely to happen even there's a change in protocol as you have mentioned. My speculation is that it will only get into the $700 range. For me $3,000 by the end of the year seems "realistic" but somewhere in the region of $2,000 to $2,500 is a safer prediction. Japanese market flooding the bitcoin ecosystem with cash flow is also a good indication that the price of bitcoin will continue to rise up to the end of the year.

[Nagadota]

I'm thinking the healthy rises will be to about $1500.  The rest of it will just be pump/dumps from scaling and other issues that arise.

[darthmaul]

Your post looks pretty old. Anyway as you can see we are in 2017 and the price has already risen up to $1200 and its not even mid-year. If we think of prices at the end of year then it gets pretty interesting to predict that. As we stand at point where bitcoin has always put our fingers in our mouths by looking at it's price waves on the trade chart. I always trust bitcoin in it's potential to rise up. I am damn sure by the end of 2017 bitcoin will hit $2000 making revolutionary investments in the bitcoins. Those who wouldn't trust this fact they will loose lot of money in terms of profit. Others will enjoy the royalty. So yes it's 1 BTC = $ 2000 by the end of 2017. :-)

Yes it looks to settle around that figure if you look critically at its growth from January. It might jump to $2000 at some point but I don't think it will settle there for that long since the market manipulations are huge so I will give it a+ or -30% margin for any potential pump.

The $2,000 price sounds pretty easy to accomplish. There's plenty news and other mainstream promotion being placed for Bitcoin, the only thing that Bitcoin really needs would be the investors. Once Bitcoin has a bunch of people holding the coins and not spending it as much the price ride will be awesome because we would know that if we sell the coins then we would have to purchase it again at a higher price than before.

It could be easily reach $2k value but we are still low investors .. unless  more business will come that accept bitcoin as payment. .it can be easily touch in that value.
For now i saw many website are accepting bitcoins right now and most of them are VPN companies.
Looks at this site where just found in google when searching about list of company that accept bitcoin as payment
https://99bitcoins.com/who-accepts-bitcoins-payment-companies-stores-take-bitcoins/

I could not imagine before that we will grow fast from 2015 when i was started using bitcoin and now from $290 value before the price right now is $1200+

For now in my own views that much more possible to touch its value is nearly $1500 because i think more company or business will launch this middle of this year.

I think also bitcoin price will reach $1500 in this year 2017 but I hope it will be $2000 per bitcoin. Its is possible to happen why? Its because many country adapt bitcoin and accept bitcoin. And many big investor invest in bitcoin and many people have interest to invest. Thats why bitcoin price are contiously increasing. And I hope this year bitcoin will become more popular . More bitcoin more money so buy bitcoin now and sell after month or years.

Well your answer has already been answered. Bitcoin has definitely held its strength and it has continued to get stronger and stronger. The price is now over 1200 dollars and it is still steadily rising. My prediction is that the price of Bitcoin will be close to 2000 dollars by the end of 2017.
