bitcoin in 2017

[sportis]

Seeing what happened in 2016 I believe that bitcoin will have more adoption from people worldwide. China will continue to support the bitcoin market and Indian people after the ban of 500 and 1000 rupee banknote will turn to crypto coins market. So more demand of bitcoin globally means higher price.

I think 2017 will a nice year for bitcoin and the price will stay stable and continue to claim slowly. Also, the community will continue to raise and the number of bitcoin wallet.

Should be great to see the mining shifting from China and see more counties join the forces for balancing the hashing power in the network.

anyone can give out your opinion about bitcoin in 2017 please

will growing trend keep continue in 2017 ?

I do believe that growth of bitcoin will still continue in bitcoin and up to the succeeding years...

do you think it good oppotunies for more shop accepted bitcoin ( paypal, amazon ?)

That's part of the growth, more and more shops and merchants might start to accept bitcoin if they were impressed on the development of bitcoin specially its price...

which country market will be the central for bitcoin in 2017 ( india , china ?  )

Definitely it will be china, just observe some threads here in the forum, they are sometimes mentioned and said to affect the price...

My opinion on bitcoin in 2017, well for starter we all without doubt can agree that its price well go over 1000$ and that is a good for most of us because most of us are holding it to that moment, and there will be no surprise that the number of users for bitcoin will increase significantly which will make bitcoin used more in most of the shopping online like amazon or eBay as a payment method , and the number of investment in it will also increase.

I think it will be a nice year for BTC too. The price will continue increasing slowly, but with consistecy and stability, we will have the opportunity to finally reach to $1000.

About mining, I think China doesn't want to see this balancing power, currently they are ruling the mining activity and I doubt another country or countries can beat them now, as they have cheap electricity and powerful technology to continue mining the most Bitcoins. Looks the chineses will have more Bitcoins than any other country.

For me personally I see Bitcoin 1200 by March and if trend continues 1600 by year end. Don't know about countries accepting it, people have started accepting it a lot. From what I see transaction will get slower and that's what I am hating about it, no solution in sight. Though I feel banks will start accepting it soon. Downside if things go bad then, I see btc a low of 650$ not below than that. Overall a positive year is predicted.

[pereira4]

I am pretty sure that we are going tos ee the new all time high during the 2017 year, and it's not only going to be a spectacular year price wise, but the technology will advance too. We will finally see Segwit activated as the bullshit campaign against it gets defeated (it will fall due it's own weight). We will finally keep moving forward towards a faster, more optimized, and more private Bitcoin, people will keep moving their wealth into the blockchain and the price will reach jupiter.

[Kprawn]

If the end of 2016 are any indication of what will happen with Bitcoin in 2017... then we will have a jolly good year, next year. I just hope

SegWit or some scaling solution will be finalized early in 2017 to gear us up for the whole of 2017 and beyond. Kim Dot Com also

promised us big things for 2017, so I guess we will have to hope for that to happen. 

[Pitchblackroom]

From what I can see we are definitely going to see a rapid growth period either towards the end of this year or through the beginning of Q1 of next year. We should be able to see an all time high price per coin which I think will be anywhere from 1200-1600$. After this all time high, I do believe the bubble that occurred will pop and we should see a stabilized price from 700 (At Low) to 1000$ish dollars as the stable.

Due to the higher price per coin, this will be also due to a higher demand in the aggregate and should allow Bitcoin to keep these higher prices even when the bubble will have popped. We should also see other places accept Bitcoin as a medium of exchange also.

First we do have to see how high this bubble is going after the steady growth through most of the year, then we can make some more reasonable estimates after the bubble has popped.

Totally agree, 2017 promises a lot for bitcoin

[T-TERI]

better than 2016 but i dont think that it hit 1200$.probably its gonna hit 1000$  but fall again

[Lionidas]

better than 2016 but i dont think that it hit 1200$.probably its gonna hit 1000$  but fall again

The way that it has been behaving lately. I and many here would beg to differ on that assumption.
It has risen by $100 in no time and continuing to climb so where will it stop nobody knows.
Going into the New year all we can have is optimism or what hope do we have for it to ever get established as a global currency to upset people's main oppressor: MONEY!

[logic-bet]

Totally agree it has to rise to be a global currency

I think the trend to grow will continue (bar some massive hack)

More merchants might accept it but really at this stage that is not so much a big deal, in my opinion they need to accept bitcoin now morre than bitcoin needs them.

and yeah India and china and Venezuela will all be massive for bitcoin in the future.

[OROBTC]

...

There are so many variables and things out there going on, I hesitate on offering any predictions (my track record is mostly one of bad predictions about the future).

So, I will just offer up the below, purported to be a quotation of J. P. Morgan when someone asked him what stock market would do:

"It will fluctuate."


Also attributed to Morgan:

"Gold is money, nothing else."     <--- clearly a man from the pre-Bitcoin era   

[shinratensei_]

will growing trend keep continue in 2017 ?

Yes, it will. According to the others information if at early 2017 the big pump will happen.

do you think it good oppotunies for more shop accepted bitcoin ( paypal, amazon ?)

For attracting more user and it will need for held new features, is this refers to your service?

which country market will be the central for bitcoin in 2017 ( india , china ?  )

Chinese definitely, Hash has held by them and which mean the central of bitcoin mining was there at the Chinese.

[ufaiz50]

will growing trend keep continue in 2017 ?

Alan Donohoe, Daniel Masters, and CEO SpectroCoin Vytautas Karalevicius predicted to increase in 2017
Juniper Research, a financial research firm, says bitcoin transaction will triple by 2017, reaching $ 92 billion dollars

do you think it good oppotunies for more shop accepted bitcoin ( paypal, amazon ?)

paypal is one means of payment not shop. I can't argue about amazon, which I know amazon still has not received  bitcoin.
and i think it's good opportunities accepted bitcoin

which country market will be the central for bitcoin in 2017 ( india , china ?  )

because many bad things about bitcoin china i think usa because bitcoin largest market after china

[gilangIDR]

2017 will soon arrive. I guess it would not hurt us back to guess, what would happen to bitcoin.
Well, I think bitcoin will become more popular. I'm sure many users payment processor that they have invested money in the form of bitcoin, and I also felt that the relationship between bitcoin, and paypal are getting close. amazon accept bitcoin, and china became bitcoin central

of course the use of bitcoin will increase. some users have been using bitcoin now routinely. in 2017 will grow a new community that is using bitcoin.

[deadsilent]

Yes. As others are saying. Im more positive. Its better to be positive than stressing yourself. I think more establishments and companies are now going for bitcoin this 2017. Also the megaupload that kim dotcom he is saying that switching to bitcoin. It didnt happen yet. I think also media will feel the power of bitcoin that will catch their attention. That will be a good publicity for bitcoin. But we will see that when we are at 2017.
