When do you think Bitcoin will reach $1500?

[Dimelord]

I say by the end of December for sure, but feeling the summer is a possibility as well.  Your thoughts ?

With the speed at which now bitcoin is rising,surely within next two months,Bitcoin price would reach $1500.Many of those who shorted bitcoin after ETF decision that its price would go down have lost as its price has reco vered quickly within hours.People now are aware of bitcoin's potential and $1500 to reach is not a big task for bitcoin.

Not for the next 4-5 months i think. As you can see, the price of bitcoin is just keep up and down in the last 2 weeks and it will continue until may maybe. My prediction is Bitcoin will fall to $1000 in the next month and it will increase slowly up to $1500, maybe around October-November the price can reach it or even more.

End of December I'm sure the price can be above $ 1,500 was too long in my opinion. A few days ago bitcoin prices had dropped some and now up again.
I think soon bitcoin prices will reach $ 1,300, and it will continue to approach $ 1,500. Maybe it would be reached in mid-2017, around August.

By end of the year, I'm guessing between $1600 - $1800.

I'm quite with current trend $1500 will be on the board by end of end of April or maybe before end of Q2. At the moment bitcoin is looking very solid currency.

[phr0stbyt3]

That's not too far as nowadays we daily see bitcoin growing around 10$ per day so if this actually continues you can expect a price of 1500$ by September or max by October. But as i said it has to like how it is growing currently.

There is high probability that you are right. There is one problem thought, inevitable scaling solution can happen.
We don't know what it would be but we can't rule out the possibility of a hard fork and this will be a problem.
Every unprecedented event, especially as big as protocol update will be major price disruptor.

[RhodaGila]

I think if viewed from ever happening ever before, Bitcoin will increase at the end of the year or early in the following year. While in full running almost a year, prices are going to fluctuate around the price of progress.

[jakelyson]

Is it just going to be touch and go or will it stay on that level?

If it is just a touch and go situation, it May happen between April to June. We always experience a pump and dump situation during those months. But this is just pure speculation based on past performance. And we all know past performance should not be a basis for future results.

If it is to stay on that level, I say before this year ends, we are well and stable at that price. And that is if we get a pump on November.

Yeah, we could expect $1500 if the trend continues. but i have a feeling that it'll crash first then by the end of the year we'll be at $1500+.

It would be nice to see some sort of an explanation as to why you think the price will crash. I honestly don't see anything indicating this since the increasing demand is the main driver of the price. That however doesn't mean we won't go down a bit, but a crash is not something I am worrying about. My range may be a bit on the wider side, but I think we'll keep bouncing between $1150-$1250 in the coming weeks/month. Mainly because of people cashing out, where after that the demand pushes the price back up.

I agree. Ever since Bitcoin has reached 1000+ price again everyone is talking about big crash but without any solid ground for that. What are the key issues and facts that are in favour of big price dump? At the moment I can't see any but people are probably afraid because of some events in past where the big pump was followed by big dump.
I predict that Bitcoin will remain around 1100-1250$ for a while and for a 1500$ we will have to wait longer.

Maybe there will be a rapid price increase before the end of 2017. But for the first week of January 2018 it will be dumped and will be back maybe to $1,200-$1,300 but there's a need first to see the price close to $1,400 and if we saw that it will be coming for the 3rd quarter of this year then it's very possible that it can reach on that price.

[Iranus]

By next halving, over $5k for sure. However, we re still long way from there.

If you're so sure of that, you 'obviously' have stacked up as many coins as possible at current prices, right? There are less than 4 years to go before we reach the next halving date, and if you think that we'll reach $5000 by that time, you won't have any problems waiting.


OP; I prefer to remain somewhat conservative when it comes to my predictions, but we all know how great the current demand and sentiment levels are. I say there is 75% chance that we'll break through $1500 before the end of this year (to remain somewhat of my conservativeness). I just can't discard the endless scaling debates that cover the entire community with a thin layer of negativity.

True, these scaling debates pretty much hinder Bitcoin's progress as a currency and will continue to do so for a long time.  I think that this whole period since late December has been a bit strange and Bitcoin needs to show some stability before it can genuinely move forward because right now I don't know what the people's value is and what's just temporary hyped market sentiment.

The main reason is the hard fork that might happen, it will crash the price. i hope we get segwit activated and don't get anywhere near hard fork.

For end Desember I thinks $1,500 is very possible to reach. In fact, the price of bitcoin every days is
continues to rise. So, to reach $1,500 per Bitcoin I think just need to some month, maybe two month again.

[Pierre 2]

I think by the end of the year we will reach $1500.
Bitcoin seems very bullish in current trend.

Well this one is tricky as we might reach the mark of $1500 by December which will be a new milestone for us but at the same time yes there might be some fluctuations and it depends on the bitcoin transaction during new year holidays of 2018 which will decide whether the price of bitcoin will cross the $1500 mark or throttle down temporarily.

By the next halving..... don't rush it - price has doubled since October it needs more consolidation above $1000 before we can push higher and stay there

People don't understand what it takes to "just" keep the price at current levels, let alone to bump the price higher.

They just look at how the price has gone up lately and assume that it will continue to go up as easily. They just see what they want to see and completely ignore the real essentials.

People have been spoiled with peaks and dumps since the very beginning, so it's difficult to get them to focus on anything else. Consolidation is something that can't be found in their dictionary.
