Fork gone! BTC to $10k in 2017 guaranteed!

[jc89]

The uncertainty and general possible mayhem of the fork was the only thing standing in the way of $10,000 BTC by end of 2017. Now with the fork removed I think we are guaranteed to hit it in December.

How high do you think it'll go before end of year? If Bitcoin keeps its average pace this year it'll hit $11,000 roughly on the last day of the year.

I think the fork isn't totally gone. Based on what I've read they just postponed it but didn't say that it will never push through anymore. There might still be some setbacks and corrections with the price but nonetheless it will still go to 10k no doubt about it. Maybe the news of fork suspension hasn't reached everyone and there might still be others out there who will pull out so I'm thinking we might fall back to at least 6500 at the lowest then will surely come back again to 7k and up.

I wouldn't say guaranteed because nothing is guaranteed really. But now that the fork is cancelled or at least postponed for later i can see a lot more ease and potential for price to go to $10k or even higher levels.

And quite honestly, this could all happen in the span of one year.

Do expect a correction after the big pump up to $10k though, the price may overshoot that figure quite a bit before going down a bit.

It's difficult for bitcoin to reach $ 10.000 at the end of year while for now bitcoin still struggling on $ 7700 to $8000 at the moment

Just like BCH fork before, it will start decrease ! So this year , bitcoin able reach $ 8k or $ 9k ,the maximum value

if the price is hit $11,000 then I think the price will go for more than $11,000 because we have opportunity to see the price is increase higher than this year so I think we can sell our bitcoin for small amount to make big money. if the price is really hit that price then I am sure that many of us will get the party in their home and they can really make a lot of money by selling their bitcoin. actually I am waiting the price is reach $10,000 too like other people but I think we need to be patience because right now, the price is trying to be in one level price.

Fork canceled so we will see 5000$ in few months. there are too many problems that shows we need a fork. And if tx fee gets higher everyday then less people will start to use bitcoin for transactions.

Bitcoin is dropping hard at the moment, while Bitcoin Cash is up 41% already.
This is of course all speculation: all traders want to own more in the end, while all together they'll own less, because exchanges take a cut. It's not even a zero-sum game, it's negative.

My only wish would be for Bitcoin Core to increase blocksize on their own, without massive objections from people who benefit from high fees, exactly as Satoshi suggested:
satoshi on October 4, 2010:

It can be phased in, like:

if (blocknumber > 115000)
    maxblocksize = largerlimit

It can start being in versions way ahead, so by the time it reaches that block number and goes into effect, the older versions that don't have it are already obsolete.

When we're near the cutoff block number, I can put an alert to old versions to make sure they know they have to upgrade.

I don't think that $11000 is possible for this year. I speculate that maybe in the ball park of $8000-$9000 is fairly a conservative estimate. Also correction is going to happen or is happening now, its below $7000 and I think it's possible to see it drop a few more in the coming days. Segwit2x is already postponed, and we should be expecting this kind of correction to happened soon. But to really push to $10000 at the end of the year, we need another fresh breath of positive news, however, I'm not seeing any except for Amazon accepting bitcoin but it looks like they have shoot down that idea. Its just days before the end of the year, there are a lot of  things that are going to happened by for me, $8000-$9000 tops for this year.

Expected correction. Price had gone up >50% past few weeks. Expect a consolidation in the $6000s like it is now, then a renewed push by end of the year towards $10k.

Bitcoin Cash is pump and dump just like in August. Pure speculation. BCH isn't actually used for anything except trading. It's blocks are literally 99% empty. Once traders take their BCH profit they'll move it back into Bitcoin and pop bitcoin goes up a few hundred bucks just from that.


And yeah I agree Bitcoin Core needs to implement a block size increase relatively soon. The fork was only contentious because bitcoin core was against it. It is a needed upgrade for Bitcoin and definitely needs to happen next year. For the time being Bitcoin clients need to start implementing segwit so that blocks are not at full capacity and fees go back down. Segwit transactions are only at like 10%.

When Bitcoin Cash pumped in August, Bitcoin didn't fall this hard. That happened a month later, and Bitcoin Cash dropped too.

Maybe we see the price of bitcoin become 10k dollars . Because fork is cancelled for sure many investor again buy bitcoin so thr pricr will continue to increase. As of now the ptice of bitcoin is already  7500 dollars and its near to 8k dollars and maybe we see the price of 9k dollars this month of november and the 10k dollars next month of december. So if you have extra money now it's better if you invest now in bitcoin to make some profit.

I want to do a little correction in the information you have mate. Investors were holding bitcoin for the Segwit2x as fork is already over. So it is segwit2x that has been cancelled now, due to wish investors have rushed to the exchanges to sell the bitcoin which is of no use to them now because they were expecting to get a huge profit due to split chain. The bitcoin price is therefore, going down worth at the moment and has gone to $6732. If the investors keep on selling bitcoin like this I am afraid of bitcoin could once again go back to the price around $5000 or may be lesser than it. It will be a great achievement of bitcoin if it gets back its price to $7800.

I am also setting the target for 2017 at $10,000 per Bitcoin. That is already enough for me. It seems a perfect and reasonable speculation already. If in any case that it will fall short of grabbing the $10,000 resistance, for sure it would be playing around $9,500 more or less. And finally in the earliest days of the year 2018, the $10,000 will finally be hit. But because of the upcoming SegWit2x this December, I think it is going to be an easy $10,000.

Even the fork is cancelled theg have bad effect because as of now the price of bitcoin continue to decrease and it's not 6700 dollars and I hope it will increase again the price soon so we can make more profit. But for sure we will see 10k dollars before end of this year 2017. So if you have extra money in your wallet better to buy bitcoin now but invest only you can afford to lose.

And when bitcoin cash will drop after it's pump, bitcoin expected to pump. This is how the crypto market goes on, a rally for every coin but at the end of the day bitcoin is always the winner of it.

yup I think it is a great time to buy some bitcoins today since the price is not that high yet we could use this opportunity to buy some bitcoins and expect a good profit at the end of this year ! 10k usd at the end of the year is very possible to happen so I am taking the risk

[RenegadeMind]

Only $10,000? Why so bearish? 


But seriously, I'd love to see that, but I don't believe it will happen.

Exactly. People who have gotten good positions in Bitcoin Cash before or as it was rising will make lots more bitcoin because of the pump. When the profit-taking occurs in the next few days and BCH dumps all that money is going to flow back into Bitcoin. People just making money off the Bitcoin Cash which is a pure trading coin, no usage outside of trading.

[Sensill]

about BTG and 2x it is only game from china to pump prices and make good income .
bitcoin price may up again if some one start and make Bitcoindiamond , bitcoinmoon ,..............

[machinek20]

The time is too short to reach 10k, it will become unhealthy rising for bitcoin and it will got correction if it can up 3k in 1,5 month, so I think the possibility to reach 10k and stablilize in that number need to wait until next year

Be careful! The current price of Bitcoin are falling down by the rumor about SegWit2x and Bitcoin Cash can become the next Bitcoin in future. You should to keep calm and wait the confirm from the Bitcoin miners to know that news is real or fake. If that rumor become the truth, I am sure the Bitcoin price will not stop down at here.

How high do you think it'll go before end of year? If Bitcoin keeps its average pace this year it'll hit $11,000 roughly on the last day of the year.

I agree with you. With the price increase like this, the BTC price will reach $ 10,000 at the end of this year
