Bitcoin Price Tops $1,000 in First Day of 2017 Trading

[hollandvan]

2017 will be the golden or diamond year for bitcoin, I can't imagine how high we will be. Maybe 2000 USD, or 3000 USD will be All time HIGH

Its wow! Just saw the price on preev and came here to look for the relevant topic. It is quite amazing, as I'm still in my first year in the bitcoin world, this is the highest I've seen it go, and I'm quite amazed actually. Wonderful isn't it?

Sure it's the highest point of bitcoin so far and according to this source which is coindesk's bitcoin graph (http://www.coindesk.com/price/) even the highest price bitcoin "was" ever touched in 2014 only about $979 which means we're going to make another record and brace yourself this one is going down in history. Next generation of bitcoin adoption will always talking about this.

Actually incorrect, BTC highest price was ~$1275 in Nov 2013,
so technically it has been Loser for over 3 years.

It is really nice to know that the bitcoin price right now is can be say as stable price. Though we don't know what will happen in the next day. But still I think this is the year of Bitcoin for real, cheer's!!.

[strasboug]

How nice it is. Bitcoin is in the initial long term upward trend and will go higher when more and more people discover the bitcoin. Hope in 2017 it will go to $2000. It is the cyber gold and people will collect.

This is the second time I saw the bitcoin price reaching at 1,000$ starting from at the end of 2013.
I'm very happy because I have some more earnings from investing to bitcoins.
I expect Bitcoin maybe grow up 1,500$ in 3 months later.

[jacaf01]

I think is rise is due to speculators speculating another great year for Bitcoin and they don't want to be late to the party. So many uncertainties in world economy presently

[Sithara007]

I was surprised by the ease at which $1,000 was attained in Bitstamp. I expected a lot of resistance between the $975 and $1,000 levels. And also, the mainstream media coverage of the event was very disappointing.

Artificial Pump , don't worry the Dump is coming before the end of Jan 2017.


 

possible but it may increase even more before that, i don't mind for example another increase to 2k, and then a big dump to 1200 or whatever, it would still be a success

[ged00u]

it is a good news for all the Bitcoiners who are holding a lot of Bitcoin. We can now dream of the Bitcoin adoption since its prices are slightly increasing in past few day. Bitcoin starts its new year by hitting $1000 and there are many days ahead so I am sure that its prices will continue to pass the prices of $2000. 

[btccashacc]

Yes it is good for on 2017 the bitcoin's price had increased up to $1,000 but for me it is must be anticipated because bitcoin's price always can be decreasing.
So for the traders bitcoins always becareful because usually after bullish trend always becomes bearish trend and i think it is time for taking profit on 2017 and wait until the price becomes go down then buy back again.

this is what i'm scared of!
The price currently is 1000 dollars each and this is awesome finally bitcoin hit 1k dollars again as we hoped however there's always possibility for bitcoin to being dumped due to the people will sell their coin in order to get profit, i personally keep holding my coins at this point seems like the price will increase, i've sold some amounts when the price was 900 dollars little bit regret but it's ok since holding bitcoin is too risky.

[Cashew]

This is amazing ! This is history ! I didn't belive a single second in December that we would reach such an high point, but we did it ! But beware of the drop !

[Hullo]

This is wonderful achievement for bitcoin to see it back at this floor. I'm quite sure this year we will see more bigger rise up to 3k before the end of year.

Stockmarket linkage possibly

What I'm thinking as well. Year ago when the stock markets were going to shit, Bitcoin fell too. Right now, major economies are prospering. US stock markets are doing great, I expected Bitcoin to do well too.

[iram3130]

Do you really think it will be a good year as it reached the $1k mark at the start of the year? Most of the people here know that the price will go down and the people who have sold their BTC will have to wait till then. Of course it will be a great year if you have a strategy. 

[CyberKuro]

Stockmarket linkage possibly

Possibly, but it is more than likely a lot of speculators were also jumping at the opportunity and, based on the market, everyone still thinks it has a real chance to go higher and higher than it did before.

More people would be selling if they were worried, right now the market seems content sitting near the $1k mark and chances are they won't get worried anytime soon.

If the stock markets start to go up, we might see a sell-off. I don't know for sure.

Second day of $1000 price and seems still stable for bitcoin but on the other hand market trading of others altcoin less valuable compare to bitcoin.
Some holders must be selling out but I won't do the same mistake twice, the dips will not coming to buy back.
Let's see how long the price could stand up at $1000, but bitcoiners believe to keep and spend when they want to, not only hoarding.

It wont happen again that bitcoins price would dip again just like what happen on the previous year when bitcoin hits $1k+ price.We see the support and resistance level of bitcoin i could say that its really hard for bitcoin to dip its price again an i strongly believe this momentum would continue even more.

[Tanic]

The price for bitcoin hit the point of 1030$ before the new year, I think that was on 30th, but I am not sure. But after the price fall on it's previous level 900+$. And now I see again on YoBit 1018$ per coin. That is fantastic! Bitcoin doesn't stop to surprise!
