What do you think the price of bitcoin will be in 2018

[Roboabhishek]

As we all know that bitcoin has progressed a lot since it was released and here in 2017 we saw the price of bitcoin was 1000+ USD which is 5x of the price was in 2015.
So what do you think it will be in 2018.

Honestly its hard to predict because bitcoin is unpredictable and there's no assurance that the price could be rise more or not..
But i can give you my own prediction.. for now because of the movement of the price right now from last year and the 2015 movement.. we are seing more price fluctuate every year so i think the price could be touch at $1700 as maximum and playing around $1400-$1600 this is just my own speculation..

That is true, since bitcoin price is really unpredictable but if observed from the past,bitcoin price continue to increased slowly.I am very optimistic on 2018 but it is still early to speculate since we are newly started now (2017). $1,700 is attainable for me.

Price is going to Tank, because BTC is going to get caught in the middle of a trade war between the US & China.

China will try to use their control over BTC to use against the USA as Leverage over areas that China wants to claim as territory in the South China Sea.

If you are a US Citizen and hold BTC expect the Chinese to block all transactions trying to force the US to comply with their wishes on territory disputes,
Trump will not blink and will not yield , no matter if China Blocks all BTC transactions.

Everyone better cash out to US $ if they want to protect their capital before this battle between the Titans begins, then it will be too late.

President Donald Trump vowed on Monday that the United States would prevent China from taking over territory in international waters in the South China Sea,

FYI2:
US $ is going up, and BTC is going down.

I think it will hit $2,000 by that time, maybe not at the start but probably in the middle of it or before it ends. Though we might need a bit of a push here before we sky rocket to that point. Maybe a mass adoption will even prove to be a good push. News of big corporations adopting bitcoins will most likely be our friend.

i hope it will hit more than $1500 in 2018. I dont know about war between US and China can do so much damage to bitcoin, but i know some local bussiness in my country start to add bitcoin payment, maybe it will increase bitcoin price. I wish other country start to accepting bitcoin too.

It might be $2000 or $200.Bitcoin is still very weak and if central banks decide to smash it,they will.
For me the price doesn`t matter that much,we need to gain more btc supporters,gain influence and increase adoption so the bitcoin system will become a little bit more independent.
It can`t be totally independent from the fiat economy(unfortunately).

bitcoin price is on the rise as it was from the day one. and that is only because more and more people are investing in it. in fact it is a pretty simple relationship more demand every day with new adoption and new investors while the supply is the same leads to a higher price.
it is hard though to say what the price will be exactly. but generally i think we can see $2000 in a year. that would be a small 2x rise.

Nah, it's too far to predict the price of bitcoin in 2018. We still on January and very very early in 2017. I think the price of bitcoin will stable at $700-$1000 in this year and for the next year it can reach $1000 or even more if this year being a good year for bitcoin.

I do not think that the dispute in South China Sea have relation with Bitcoin.  Besides, it is not the Chinese Government that has control over the miner.  Though it is believed that the majority of hashes came from China, it is not owned by Chinese Government but by several people.  They may reject region specific transaction fee but I doubt the issue is in SCE.
Though there is the possibility that the Bitcoin price may tank because of the debate between two group of developers. But I believe that Bitcoin will break $1500 price on 2018.

New bottom has been established since the price increase and it will continue based on the current track that bitcoin is progressing. Also after some price decrease happened after the $1100 rally, the price bounce back again and I think already established a good support around $900.

If this will continue then a minimum of $1500 can happen at the start of 2018 or even above to that. But of all this will just happen if the progress is focus on price increase which is not the usual cases. Really hard to speculate what will be the price since everything is unexpected.

Why not we can expect same 5 times growth in 2018 from the lowest levels of 2017.
I speculate bitcoin surely will reach more than $5000 levels by 2018. Because 2018 must be a mid way of next halving which may occur around June 2020. So we can expect some real boom and mass adoption to happen at those times.

The growth will be exponential, growth in bitcoin is never a nice smooth sail, the FOMO kicks in and we see tons of people getting in and driving the price higher. It is impossible to predict how high a bubble goes... this is basic knowledge in trading, you can never guess where the top is. It can be 10000 or it can be 100000 with bitcoin. In a year everything is possible.

[burner2014]

We cannot really say what exact price the bitcoin could have in the year 2018. Even expert cannot predict it exactly because it really depends on everyday activity, but as per bitcoin experts that we can have good 2018 waiting for us, so let us just pray, hope and be optimistic with the good outcome.

Man it's already hard to predict where it will end this year.
So many unexpected things can happen with bigger influences on the price, espacieally from outside when FUD gets created and spreaded by certain individuals.
But as this is the specualtion thread I will make a wild guess, where I often was totally wrong with  , and hope for an imo optimistic price of ~2500USD for end 2018 with several spikes in both directions in between.

[Noctis Connor]

if this year bitcoin will hit $1500 barrier i think the price of bitcoin in 2018 would be $2000 barrier. well its just my speculation but still i believed that bitcoin could do it. even its slow to pump it will be great for us. that's why im still wondering if bitcoin would dump up to $600 so i could buy atleast 3 bitcoin. im not that rich but me and my friends working together to make our money grow.

[Okurkabinladin]

This really depends on the way cup and handle pattern, that we have at hand right now, is going to develop in the near future.

If it ultimately turns out to be a bear trap, we could make 1000 dollars a new bottom with bitcoin averaging two to three thousand dollars in 2018. If we break down, it is still not impossible, but recovery will almost surely take twelve months plus.

Just my two cents.

$600-800

[jakelyson]

It is way too early to predict what the price will be. We are still on the first month of 2017. There are a lot of things that can effect the price of bitcoin. There is a line up of good things that could occur this year like the ETF, LN, Segwit. This may push the price up. But as we know, bitcoin is very unpredictable. There can also be unpredictable events that can suddenly crash the market. So, I will not make any prediction. I'll just hope and pray that bitcoin is better in 2018 than today.

Bitcoin has progress every year that past. So if we have 900$  below the 2016 ends,2017 will  reache at 1500$ and by the year 2018,it will rise even further because of its popularity.
