I don't want a $2,000 bitcoin by February

[GMPoison]

Is there anyone else on this forum who is solely interested in what is best for bitcoin and not necessarily just it's price going through the roof? I suppose if it's price does rise high that would be a good thing for bitcoin, but not always. If it shoots up too quickly because of hype or what have you it could collapse like it did before. However I do believe that if the price crashes all the way back down like it did in 2013 it will only strengthen bitcoin even further, just like it did in 2013. However that doesn't mean that's what I'm hoping for.

I'm rooting for a slow and healthy climb like we've seen the past two years. I don't want to see a $2000 bitcoin by February, only to be followed by a $200 bitcoin in March. What are your guys' opinions?

Don't worry, it won't happen either way. It's already declining rather fast.
The best way is not to look at price at all, but at the number of transactions, that's what determines success imho.

You don't need to worry about the price of 2000$ in February. Now it's down under 1000$ maybe it will be under 850$ soon .
You will see the price of 2000 in next march, 2018 soon.

Already more than enough people supporting bitcoin, and the price will always remain profitable for large miners, so I doubt we could ever see prices below $500. what is most important for me other than price is the stability of the network and even more important is the transactions time and confirmations time.

I want a network where any transactions with fees get in blocks less than 20 minutes and I think many people want the same thing as the price growth will set in eventually.

though im hoarding alot a coin, i dont care much for the price drama. i dont even look at the price unless i have been prompted by other people drama.

those that understand bitcoin and in it for the long haul dont care much either. but i do have to agree a steady progressive price is better than a rampant price rise.

but with that said the up's and downs are to be expected.
if you are a trader do not panic/cry when the price drops. think of it as a discount day to buy more while cheap. if the price jumps treat it as a bonus day to sell at profit to then buy in later when it settles back down.

if your not a trader, then dont worry about the price

More than enough people supporting bitcoin? The amount of people who currently use bitcoin is only a drop in the bucket of the amount of people that I hope will one day use it!

Yes I'm agree that the fast rise can provok collapse. Add to that it can make governments scare of bitcoin or to see some danger in it. And that can prove je banning from their side. So I'm also for slowly grow without any big surprises.

I feels too expensive if bitcoin reach $ 2,000. In 2017, I just wanted ETH to be at last $ 50

If the bitcoin reach $2000 in later 2017, it is not so expensive.

Slow and healthy climb/pump is always good however as marketcap of bitcoin can still be considered very low so price can easily get manipulated or have high volatility and even small news/event can trigger movement. But i don't think after touching $2000, price can go down to $200 within one month like you have given in example.

I accept that history repeat it self but this time history is not going to repeat 2013 event. So everybody looking forward and everybody wish that Bitcoin price should go to the moon or atleast $2000.

I'm with you bro! I don't care about price I care about continued expansion into new markets and mass adoption. For me this is about something much more important than money.  

[ridery99]

Technical analysis show that we are going to bounce back staight to 2k soon and after that 10k is possible

Exactly. I'm not in it to make a couple of bucks here and there. Of course there are plenty of people who are - and that's fine - just not me. I'm in it to change the world.

I think it takes long time before we can see that the price will touch in $2000 value and i think the movement of the price is normal ..and i think we will see back again the price will be high i think it will start at march april  or may those month that i think we will see that the price will increase above $1k again but for 2k value it takes  years to see that value..

How is it declining fast? we are only 20 dollars away from being at 1000 dollars again... it has resisted the massive correction pretty well in my book.
Also, let's not be naive here: price is extremely important. We need a good price and we need the price to rise over time. The higher the price, the more money that is being trusted into bitcoin being a potential safe haven. We all know as it is today, bitcoin is a poor payment transfer anyway, until we have lightning network bitcoin is gold 2.0 and the "currency" part is just an extra.

[spazzdla]

There will be no stopping a massive run up and a crash afterwards.. btc is just too small right now..

There 100% will be another MASSIVE run up and another large crash..

THAT SAID.. $200 is dream land we will never see that price again.  $200 per BTC is history now.

What I meant was the people currently in support of bitcoin will never allow the market to crash, there will be always a large group of supporters and worrying about the network to crash is not necessary.
Bitcoin mining also remains profitable and that is a well established fact as for the last 4 years you can't find anyone mining bitcoin in loss.

We always cannot expect slow and steady price appreciation. Just imagine if we are heading towards $10k price levels then $2000 will be possible before this February itself.

There will be nothing wrong if bitcoin reach there by this month itself too. Because if it reach there then it will definitely reach $10k levels by mid of this year. I agree after that some pullback will be possible still it will be good for all of us.

[mombay]

He will go soon at 550$.
2000$ don't think so, but it is possible ... not next month but possibly next year.
