BTC at $1,000 by Christmas?

[HarryKPeters]

The possibility of crossing the thousand dollar mark by Christmas is a real possibility but you can never expect the price would be stable by the time because you would see massive sell off if the prices crosses the magic figure.

What the he11 are you talking about !? Christmas time is almost here and crossing $800 will be success! Who think about investments now? If Bitcoin will reach $900 in March will be very good result for everyone!

Most users in the forum want to see a big rally and earn some money out of it, I don't think we will reach it but there is nothing wrong with dreaming with that happening since everyone could use some extra money in Christmas.

Some things will never change...

I would be happy if we can hold 750 for at least 6 months. It would be an remarkable effort.

It is rising like crazy right now and glad i got some before this rise above that wall that everybody has been saying that has been holding the price back from going skyward bound.
It is great to be free like this now!
GO up to the top bitcoin.

Christmas will be a few more days to arrive. Well, many of which have to be prepared at the time, especially bitcoin. I'm not sure at the time of Christmas, bitcoin prices reached a price of $ 1000, but I would argue that the price will not be much of a price of $ 1,000. Well, the price will go up very quickly before the end of the year, I believe it 

This is every ones waiting for to come this coming Christmas season yet to those who anticipated they will get frustration of what will happen.

so better not, but then guessing of bitcoin for this coming year is for sure higher than now because of fast or rapidly growing or increasing value of it.

The highest I think it can go right now is $850 before Christmas, the way the price is trending as of the moment but hitting the $1000 mark is really far fetched.

[tee-rex]

If I were you, I wouldn't just take for granted that we will reach the $800 level by Christmas. Right now the patterns are quite similar to how it was before the block halving when we were about to reach $800. People were speculating about it to happen within an x amount of hours, but we all know what happened after that. First let's reach $800 and settle above that level, and repeat the same thing when we reach $900, and after that we'll start speculating about reaching the $1000 level.

But today we don't have the block halving right around the corner. Many people had been warning in the spring and early summer of 2016 that the price would drop right before the halving just because traders would be fixing profits they had obtained from the rally that lasted almost 9 months since the fall of 2015. In my view, there is no plausible reason to think or expect that the price should fall almost 200 dollars again as it did after the July halving.

Chances are there for it to happen, but yes, just because the chances are there, or the situation is similar to a certain extent, it still doesn't mean that it will actually happen. But as it stands right now, the market is waiting for someone (big player) to pull the trigger. It's that, or traders will dump out of boredom. But then again, I didn't say it will drop $200. It's impossible to say such a thing as Bitfinex was part of the problem for that drop. Sub $700 is what I am focusing on.

It seems to me that traders are just waiting for a serious correction because we have been on the rising trend for over three months already without a major correction. I refer to early September when the price had started its current rally from around $570 per coin, an aftermath of the Bitfinex incident. Ironically, I myself placed piles of buying orders from just below $700 and down to $650.

Will we find this gift under our tree?

It will be good if I have a tree as at Christmas and that gift just show up all of a sudden. I will be more glad to see that happen because looking at the grand, its really moving in that direction and its something that will be close to that if we can't achieve that but the most important is not meeting that at Christmas but keeping it at that or even higher after that...

just one more week until Christmas... dont think we will reach $1k.... $800 maybe....

Yes, I think so, only one week not could probably could reach $1,000. It looks like this will occur in 2017, however this is a good time to buy a bitcoin, I'm sure the price will continue go up.

I'm losing my hope now that the price of bitcoin will reach $1,000 before the Christmas eve. So my another hope is to accept the fact that bitcoin is possible to reach $800 before the end of the year. And let's just hope for the next year to come that bitcoin is going to reach that $1,000 mark.

It could happen overnight, though if it is going to happen at all, it will likely take more time than that. Some two months ago the price had risen from $600 to over $700 in just a few weeks, so the prices of either $900 or $1,000 wouldn't be something out of the ordinary. That said, we should still be glad if the price just reaches the $800 level by the New Year, then we could hope that in the new year it will finally take the $1,000 barrier.

But we have now only almost a week before the Christmas day come. No more hopes for $1,000 and now its better to aim something lower than that is more acceptable and yes $800 is. And the price now is, $786. $14 dollars more before it reaches and we have still ample time that it is going to happen before Christmas day.

800 is realistic price for Xmas for the moment don't think it will be over or near 1000 by Xmas no way it can happen in just one week

in just 2 weeks to be exact. I do agree, now we are on 800 so it is really achievement the prices getting higher and higher! Well 1k is very impossible in just 2 weeks it will stay at the line of 8 by the end of the year. Well we cant really predict if that will happen that it will be in 1k by the end so lets just watch/

Based on the current markets, very unlikely and to be honest I do not wish that fast acceleration at this point. I hope to see the price climbing up slowly slowly as long as possible. When the growth starts to accelerate, we know what is going to happen.

At this point , the only thing that I see achievable is 800$ or 850$ at max by Christmas . I mean It could happen If something triggers it otherwise It should stay as it it or increase a little bit.
As you said too , If it increase too much and too fast then It will go to the ground faster and we don't want to see that , there is nothing better then an increase with stability.

I predicted around 800 dollar and we are there about right now. Today we just passed for a moment just above the 800 dollar on C-cex; I think it must be possible to get 1000 dollar for Christmas next year. That should be nice.

CCEX is an exchange that no one takes seriously. Even not when the price there reaches $900 tomorrow. That exchange is just too insignificant. I think it's surely possible that somwhere next year we'll finally see 4 figure prices again. It gives the price enough time to build up support levels to make reaching $1000 very likely. I just hope we don't see more hacked exchanges....

Price gaining slowly is best for any commodities including cryptos. The faster the price gains, the harder it falls. It is best for the growth to be slow and be consistent.
I highly doubt whether we will see 1000$ mark for bitcoin this December.

why would choose the slower grow of the price of bitcoin if the only way of getting more income was to hope for faster grow of bitcoin . remember that if the price of bitcoin could grow so fast. its a huge help for the people that doing trading and commonly people that getting a income through market. we're investing in bitcoin because we believed that bitcoin could grow more than the price right now so if the price of bitcoin could raise too quickly its a good advantage for us because we dont need to wait a lot of time just to get a profit on our investment.

[dhampir-D]

I think this is possible but unlikely to happen. The price has increased for a long time, it will be normal if we see some price drops for the next few days. After that, when investors find the new bottom price, the price can climb again, and a value around $ 850 seems to be a more realistic goal.

There is an indicator in trading which is loosely called a contrary indicator. It may be anything, but in this case it means that what most people think might not really happen for the simple facts that majority always loses. Therefore, if we are to take into account this factor, we should expect the price to continue to rise just because too many people are expecting it to drop.

Looking at current condition we are a bit far away from 1000$ for Christmas but maybe we receive the prize under the xmas tree!

"Ho ho ho" 

As usually I give some fraction of btc for christmas as presents, I hope to not pay to much

[pacifista]

Not enough time for bitcoin to reach 1000$ but 800 could be possible at christmas eve. Maybe next year we will see 1000$ ,and its my first time to see it.
