Bitcoin expectation $25000+

[tomahawk9]

Even in the event that the market goes down, Bitcoin remains a safer option than other cryptocurrencies. For the record, this means I am NOT selling Bitcoin at $17k anymore. In the event of a continued cryptocurrency bull run, Bitcoin is well positioned against other cryptocurrencies and could easily see $20k+ soon. What are your thoughts?

I mean, we don't care if you're not selling 17k but, good for you.

Back on the 25k topic, if we think in the short-term, the only way BTC can reach 25k in the short-term is when the altcoin dump begins. We've seen altcoins getting pump to the point where prices have reached some absurd levels, and it's only a matter of time before people realize that those shitcoins they invested in have no future whatsoever, the money will flow back into bitcoin and everything will go back to normal, at least until the next altcoins bull run.

Now in the long-term, 25k sounds low if we compare the growth we saw last year.

Bitcoin right now to me is the safest and most logical of investments, it's still comfortably below the all time low and has had time to shake off weak hands, now it is returning to a position of strength and is likely to be one of the coins to see the biggest growth in the coming days/weeks.

There are LOTS of risks, and the price of BTC has always been beyond volatile.  However I think that it is and will remain a good choice for a storage of wealth.  Big wall street money has only just begun to come in, second half of 2017 was the beginning of wide spread adoption.  Now people who said before that it was a scam , pyramid scheme, etc, are all asking me how to set up a wallet or buy from an exchange.

I don't like making specific price predictions, mostly because I am usually wrong, but I think that unless something drastic happens we will see wall street money continue to pour in in 2018, leading to a price in the 50k range.  I don't want to be too optimistic though.

By the way, I base that number on psychological factors rather than supply demand.  Once 20k is broken I expect another price rise.  Right now we have a psychological ceiling but when that is broken people will pile in because they don't want to miss out.

Or there will be a true crash and I will get a chance to buy some more   but one thing I am sure of is that the price will not be stable this year.

I am sure the price above $ 25,000 + is absolutely possible and this will happen in 2018.

bitcoin has always been in the top position in the cryptocurrency market. So hold bitcoin is certainly the most secure. if you are not a trader, the long-term storage Bitcoin is the safest way. I believe that the number $25000 will come soon
Some people mention Lightning Network.  I looked through it. look at the positive side, LN helps faster transactions and will help Bitcoin price increases. however there is some risk of application LN.

I feel as though the risk doesn't outweigh the reward though. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but having instant transactions and no fees literally puts bitcoin up with the big hitters like Paypal. With the cryptocurrency aspect behind it too, I don't see why people wouldn't want to start pumping their money into BTC. The lightning network could easily solve the issues that most people have with bitcoin as a currency and influence those who refuse to invest in it. Also, as a correction to what you said, I don't think I'd say that Bitcoin is the most secure because of the high market cap. I don't think market cap really has much to do with volatility; Bitcoin can be super volatile regardless of where it ranks in the market caps.

  Bitcoin is set for $100,000 price tag by December 2018. No matter the downward trend of Bitcoin price
  at the moment, there is every assurance that it will spike up very soon at the moment.

Yes, of course, I agree with you, bitcoin is still a major and safer cryptocurrency to invest in as the trend and momentum running here is still in stable conditions which can be viewed in the bitcoin price charts. I believe that bitcoin price charts showing that it's time enter in the market because the bottom has been completed and now it is the time for the bulls to start their rally and you can expect to see another new record high soon by this month ends. Just go forward for buying and then hold it for the target of new record high somewhere around 25k.

If you are ok with this price means,you can go head to sell your bitcoin.
But you need some more dollars for just holding means,hold till it reaches maximum.Since now the price of bitcoin is stabled at 16800$,the price of bitcoin will reach 25,000$ soon and followed by 20,000$.Don't sell your bitcoin with panic.

[S.Sandberg]

to all you people talking about the lightning network and other upgrades....

should be good to remind you that most investors barely understands what the word blockchain even mean !

also a market can continue to rise and rise beyond any reasonable and rational thinking, it just depends on the hype,

and also it depends on all of the institutions pouring monney into it.


free market crypto currencies basically are a new revolution, but a one way revolution, there is no come back.

if the money flows out of crypto markets,... it means an other revolution happened, and the money will flow from revolution number 1 to revolution number 2.

for now there is no revolution number 2. so bitcoin will keep rising.

Technically speaking that bitcoin is the safest crypto currencies that we have right now, imagine bitcoin already have the longest year and still standing cryptocurrencies that we have,  I believe bitcoin can reach this $20,000 and plus value, people will have high demand so that the rate will go higher and higher. 2018 will be one of the best year to all bitcoin holders.

[GeePeeU]

Bitcoin is losing the majority of its functions by slowly succumbing to the exploitation it is being subjected too.

If this trend continues, there is no way Bitcoin will hit 25k ever.

What real-use cases does bitcoin have right now? Unless you are made of money, and have a lot of spare time, you can't even send it anywhere without a hefty fee and long wait.

[cryptoamumu]

I like the run that bitcoin is currently on. The late December correction was expected and now bitcoin is slowly going back to its all time high of $20k. Bitcoin will easily hit $25k in no time.

Bitcoin is really amazing because no matter how negative people think about it, its always bouncing back and proving that its worth investing for. Bitcoin will makes new rich people this year, the prediction price for this is really possible so you better invest early to gain more profit, 30$ this year is reachable and can go even higher.

[yantorobi]

I am 100% sure that this year will reach that number but can not guarantee in the near future but surely this year I am sure to reach it even though at the end of the year, why am I sure? because I see a lot of people who are currently interested in cryptocurrency is mainly bitcoin

[Marsouc]

It can reach it pretty soon if they will solve some current ongoing issues (fees, ...).

[Washball]

Bitcoin is going up and down this first week of 2018, now slowly going up a little to 16K. It will not reach 20K as fast as it did before, because of the issues that still exist. So this slows down the increase. Eventually it will rise to 30K in March, but the transaction problems must be solved first.

Hello all! I am new here but its looks like one and the same question which never changes! Pump or dump of bitcoin! Really interesting I love it but its still too expensive for me and a lot of another people! Hope all we get good profit!!! Best wishes and good investments to all of us!

Sooner or later it will difinately reache the amount you mentioned due to the demand on bitcoins this coming months after the holidays we just experienced. Bitcoin is expected to reach and surpass $20k barrier this year and might get doubled by the end of this year and that thought alone makes me want to hold my bitcoin even longer.
