A bold prediction. And it has something to back it up fortunately. Though i not too excited exclusively for btc. Ripple may break away as well from other alts and chase bitcoin the way bcc did for a short time. Long term holding would not only be for btc holders this year

As of this movement btc were not really for those who are into rush of selling since it moves too slow now, some alts were making hreen too high so if we want to put it on btc better leave it there for now and look on it after 6 months to not stressed yourselves.

Of course, you can analyze the whole situation, which has developed into a game of excitement about the price of Bitcoin. If the price went up due to the fact that it was time to mass Bitcoin knot in the autumn of last year, today there are negative consequences of this excitement and this is the time of transactions and the increased prices for Bitcoin transfers. But nevertheless the price goes up again, maybe it's not that.

Ripple may break away as well from other alts and chase bitcoin the way bcc did for a short time.

Funny thing is that the general opinion (way before the massive increase) was that Ripple is just a centralized scamcoin, a bankster coin, that people shouldn't touch it, etc. Looking at the general opinion right now, people seem to go full for Ripple, and that even at cost of their *lovely* Ethereum. It just shows how instable people's mindsets are. One day Ethereum is the Bitcoin killer, and once another coin increases in value, which in this case is Ripple, it's suddenly better than Ethereum, and also a potential Bitcoin killer.

It depends. If we look at how altcoins have been performing against Bitcoin, they have mostly all (of course some exceptions there) lost big time. But if we look at how they have been performing based on their USD value, they have done exceptionally well, which largely is also because of how Bitcoin has gone up. The coin I was seriously considering buying for a while, but didn't do since I don't mess around with altcoins anymore, was Reddcoin at 5 satoshis per coin. Could have resulted in some killer returns.

There are so many coins trying their best to beat down bitcoin and some of the coin got a better feature than bitcoin, so we need to be realistic, you can see how many people complain about bitcoin, so bitcoin is not unstopable anymore

There are a lot of things that can affect bitcoin especially governments regulations that prohibit bitcoin being used in their country and completely ban exchanges.
Such action will affect bitcoin significantly, it does not matter if some major countries that have big players in the market just allow cryptocurrencies, such as Europe, USA, Russia and South Korea. Bitcoin is unstoppable if more countries regulate cryptocurrency just like the way of Japan and Belarus did.

Even now there are governments that have regulated the use of bitcoin. Same time need to understand that bitcoin is being used in countries where ban has been imposed on bitcoin. There might be control, but one who has tasted the fruit will look for an alternate path to get it,same will be taking place with bitcoin as well.

Japan has been a major source of growth last year, and I'm sure it will be like that in the coming years as well. However, Belarus on its own is pretty insignificant, which may sound a bit harsh initially, but we can't look at that country differently. Smaller countries will only be able to contribute to more growth, when they in large numbers start pooling their contributions together. Small countries by themselves aren't much to take serious, but in large numbers they will be a serious price driver, which is called the power of the mass. It's basically what happens with the Bitcoin price as well -- one average joe doesn't move anything, but when you have thousands and thousands of these average joes, they'll move the market.

[btcholak]

I agree with you.

I see it also achieving 20,000 USD mark by the end of january but as far as the price for 2018 to reached 70,000 will be a bit of too much if we don't get enough support for the majority of the population.

I really pessimistic that Ripple can really chase bitcoin and be the top currency. Ripple to me is overvalued and it's just a matter of time because it crumbles. Although its still at second place, it didn't have the gains that its putting up in the last couple of days, but bitcoin dominance has started to climb once more.

But some people doesn't have that kind of mindset. They will really dump it when they see that the price is going down, instead of holding. And then regret their decision when they see that the price is increase. But it looks like not only Bitcoin but Ethereum is really good for long term hold. Ethereum just surpasses $1000. Happy to see both reaches new heights and going green.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one who thinks that bitcoin can easily touch $20,000 at the end of the month. As long the the market is going bullish this month, even at a slow phase bitcoin can easily get to $20,000, which what we all dream of at the end of the year.

[Izarok]

No one can stop bitcoin only its increasing transcation fee. If they can somehow fix or update it with even faster block then block height and faster transaction will assure its dominance forever.

NO ONE CAN STOP BITCOIN IN LONG TERM.

BTC will go up 20.000$ in 1 month.
Price will be 70 k end of 2018.

Anyone are entitled to their own opinion and prediction because we are in a free world of digital currencies at this moment in which anyone can speculate any value that they want even $1M in just a year anyway thank you for your positive chant.   For me $20 is quite possible to happen in which it almost hit it last December and it very possible to hit this year but $70,000 is very impossible to reach for just one year.

Ripple has been pumping lately but how long can this last? What I mean is when bitcoin was close to 20k everyone that was rational about it knew a correction was coming, Ripple has been doing great but we need to acknowledge that a correction is coming as well, it is too late to invest in ripple if you want to obtain profits, wait for the correction and then invest if you do not you will lose money.

[MidKnight]

Bitcoin is really for the long term game and this alts are just there to divert the attention of people and use their bitcoins and get another promising coins or apparently for scamcoins.

The alts are here just in case bitcoins is going to sink and when there is not much profit to be made, alt gives you more option to earn money but will likely lose more than you can earn if you made a huge mistake in choosing one, bitcoin is much stable and prefer by more user than alt coins.

[blockman]

Bitcoin is the greatest coin that we can have for long term holding and I don't have anything against with what you are saying but with your speculation that it will become $70,000 for this year. That's another price that's quite high in my view where it's hardly pumping and breaking through to $20,000 at the end of the year although it was few days/weeks needed to get back to it and now it's struggling at $15,000.

[btcholak]

I agree with you.

[Ghayoor]

Nice to see positive attitude, but be realistic

You are seriously a blind guy, the price is being extremely manipulated right now, the BIG WHALES are trying to push the price to the bottom so they can buy at a cheap price, it has been seen a lot of times before.
Are you blind? or are you dumb?

I don't think it's the big whales. Do you really think they are trying to push the price of all the shitcoins down? Big whales might have had some influence in what has happened in recent days but today all cryptos are down and in the past few days many of them were down as well.

i believe that bitcoin is a digital currency and its normal with any crypto because its price is also related with market trade some time its price will be high and some time its price will be low so we need to be patient all the time and as far as i know bitcoin is such a currency which price is going high then any other crypto so its also a fact about bitcoin that once its price go high then no one can stop it.

[pocketfullofpoke]

Bitcoin is the first digital currency ever created and if somebody have bought it at 1$ per BTC and have bout thousands of it, then think of how that somebody would be today.
