$10K at the end of 2017?

[HanSchultz]

Maybe not $10,000, but I will not be surprised if it does. There is a lot of fresh liquidity flowing into bitcoin, thanks to a surge in interest among investors in asia, notably japan and korea, coupled with a resolution to the scaling debate. I would not be surprised to see the bitcoin price doubling again to around $6000 by the end of the year.

There are certainly different things that are going to hurt the price mainly the ever going scaling debate and unless we see a concrete answer regarding that and it scales without any hard fork then we can expect those valuations, if there is a hard fork then i do not think the price would reach those valuations any time soon.

Although everything could happen. $10k within this year is really impossible for me. That is way too high to just reach it with the remaining months. We will take how many years first before we could get into that price. Realistic price for me within this year is just $3500-$5000.

I wouldn't be surprised if $10 k bitcoin there aren't many fresh liquidity flows into the bitcoin, thanks to a surge in interest among investors in asia, particularly Japan and korea, coupled with a resolution to debate the scale. I wouldn't be surprised to see the price of the bitcoin doubling again for around $6000 at the end of the year. I just hope this is really happening and realized that bitcoin will show his true identity at the end of the year 2017

Very impossible to reach that  price of bitcoin this 2017. 10k ?  Bitcoin cant even pass the 3100$ price  . Were now already in the middle of the year yet another news is coming which may give a big impact on bitcoin price.

Bitcoin cant even pass the 3100$ price 

Because there is nothing that can justify the price to solidly break through the $3000 mark without SegWit being activated and running.

People for once should stop focusing on insanely high prices without looking at how the current situation regarding the scaling aspect is progressing.

$10K is so far from the current price now, even if we wait until december before we sell our bitcoins, the price will never reach to $10K.  I think it will just pass $3100 this last month of the year, don't say that it will not pass, especially after the panic on August. We all know that the change or pump of price always happen at month of December.

Here on the forum everyone is self proclaimed bitcoin expert, and speculation threads are full with many different predictions, from zero to the moon. Since I'm here people always wish for more, when we get to 10000$ people will wish to see 20000$, and when will that stop?
I also expect price to rise, don't get me wrong, but maybe we need to be patient and wait that to happen naturally, with good news and adoption price can go up slowly, and 10000$ before new year is not slowly at all. I'm trying to think about what needs to happen for bitcoin to increase so much, some massive adoption, many countries to legalize bitcoin, or just activation of segwit is enough?! I'm not sure, bitcoin price surprised me too many times until now, I doubt in 10k before new year, but but, who knows.

We are from that reality and we say that its impossible to happen. Its because we are not seeing some indication but once you started to see bitcoins price pump then thats going to change the words by those people who said that its impossible or not going to happen this year.

With bitcoin everything is possible. But always I make a prediction without any deadline, because when the price pumping takes place and when the price dump happens, no one is sure about that. Only the hope makes things possible, as the entire cryptocurrency is truly speculative in its development.

Here everyone gives their respective opinions. They make predictions according to their analysis. Bitcoin prices are very easy to change, the changes are very fast. In a single time we can see the price of bitocin increased and a few minutes later the price could decrease drastically. So anyone can not guarantee the price will change according to what they predict, everything will know when the time has come.

Not that impossible! who knows....
look at ltc after seg-wit.

I don't see it happening for this year. I'm putting my expectation on this price on 2018. And that's why I'm not going to make myself believe that it's going to happen on this year but if unexpected thing happened and the price of bitcoin reached $10k at this year, well that's a surprised and it's a good thing.

Look at the price of litecoin before all the segwit and lightening network plans came into effect and look at the price now,it is true that litecoin did not make any massive break through after the activation of segwit but you must give them some time and one thing you have to understand is that they never had a serious delay issues like we have in bitcoin.

Last month, we have read many self-proclaimed Bitcoin analysts and experts proclaiming to the whole world that soon Bitcoin will hit $10,000 by the end of 2017. We have some corrections since then which pulled back Bitcoin a little bit from its $2800 high and right now as I speak it is hovering at the $2500-$2600 level.

Bitcoin is now priced higher than 1oz. of gold and has beaten any other financial instruments in terms of return on investment which result into many money managers noticing Bitcoin and transferring some of their eggs into it.

Do you think Bitcoin will really make it into $10K within this year, most especially after its August One "date with destiny"? 

I think you are terribly optimistic.Its hardly impossible for bitcoin to reach that price.We could expect bitcoin to cross $3500 by the end of 2017.Thats all we could expect from such a potential coin,bitcoin.

That $3500 by the end of 2017 is not a one hundred percent possible, because of of ununited decisions made from trader online; even me personally I was selling my traded coin at trading sites without knowing it eventually grow it's value in the next few days. If we look to the vision of $10k, there is no way for that and even price will boom higher to rise it doesn't guarantee ongoing progress of marketplace value due to a lot of fluctuations to happen before meeting that kind of price. Let' s just see to it that price was just a day dream for all of us here.

[Bitcoinsummoner]

In my own speculation the price of bitcoin is impossible to rich $10k value it needs a lot of investors before it happens..
But i think the price can be touch like other said around $3k to $3.5k this is i think much more possibility to reach than the amount you are expecting..
$10k value this amount can be happen but not this year i think after block halving it could be happen or nearly..

[Lucius]

In six months time anything can happen,and when it comes to BTC nothing is impossible.But it is hard to expect that price can reach 10k$ by the end of this year unless something big and positive happens.Much will depend on how things will be solved regarding scaling issues,so price can go in both directions.We all like to see big price,but such things does not happen overnight-just remember how long we waited to BTC reach 1000$.Be happy with this price,and if I see 5000k$ at the end of this year, for me it will be great price

During 2014 when price was around $700-$800 before it's eventual fall to sub $200, most were predicting $2000 by 2015. Given bitcoin's price patterns of the past, what makes you sure that the price will continue to rise from here? wouldn't it be just as likely to see a $1200 price in 2018?

Very likely to see the $ 1500 in 2018, it will be very healthy so that in a future continue to rise and reach 100 billion

[aqrulesms]

Do not expect too high from bitcoins in short term as if it doesn't reaches there then it will be an disappointing feeling for all of us and I don't think it will touch that high price in this year and to see this price we may have to wait very long and I would be very much happy even if it touches $3k price in this year.
