What makes you think 2017 will be any different than other years?

the price will likely increase, and could have the effect of halving will be felt in 2017 or there will be a lot of unexpected things in 2017 that can make the price increases.

I think we will see much higher price in next year, as everyone believes that effect of halving will be show in the next year, so I think it will be the good year for bitcoin.
if halving really happens, then 2017 will truly be the year of bitcoin, and bitcoin popularity exceeded the previous year. it is because the current bitcoin has become one of the world spotlight, because bitcoin could make a country's economy for the better. in addition it also has a bitcoin transactions faster, maybe in 2017 there jobs that pay the people with bitcoin, this can lower the unemployment rate in the world

some companies that pay employees with bitcoin that there are already several companies since the year 2014-2015. one of which is Kyrgyzian Company
I am quite sure that they only pay out a very small percentage of their salary in Bitcoin as the volatility makes it not interesting for people to receive everything in Bitcoin as they have fixed expenses each month.

Its possible but IMO for now I guess 2016 is the year for bitcoin because of the halving. But if the effect of halving is good and continue till next year and surpass the price during halving i would say 2017 is the year of btc.

I think 2016 is the year of bitcoin because we will see that the price will increase more around 600-900 after block halving. This is just my though.. but if we see more great opportunity in 2017 about bitcoin and more store are accepting bitcoin as payment.. maybe 2017 is the year of the bitcoin.

The chance is really high that Bitcoin can reach that high value and that is perfect for the people with Bitcoin already because they waited a long time.
It is hard to know what is going to happen with Bitcoin but you should have to take the risk to sell it.

What constitutes a "Year of the Bitcoin" anyway? What is the criteria? Is it price ath? Mass adoption? Lots of positive news? All of the above?


I believe it is the price, the price itself implies a lot of things that is happening in the bitcoin community. Let's say the price will consistently increase its value then I would say that their is a massive adoption for different sectors of the world, and that would only happen if their is a good publicity all over the area and with some adoptions of big merchants in the world.

Yes, halving would be the biggest decider for making a year as year of bitcoin. But, halving will not take more time to trigger the prices of bitcoin to go in rocket speed. So, I believe in 2016 itself we are going to see new high prices for bitcoin. So, 2016 still has more chances to be year of bitcoin IMO.

There is a possibility of price BTC will be much better than this year, because now the BTC has been very popular from the previous years and it will likely have an impact on the growing number of users and increasing transaction BTC. It will happen in quite a long time and will continue to take place.

2016 is already shaping up to be the best year for bitcoin especially because of the halving and all the price rises to this point.

so the next year, 2017 will continue being a good year for bitcoin because all these popularity will take some time to become really big

I honestly don't get why we are talking about 2017. 2016 is in a way still fresh and when it comes to bitcoin, 2016 has been very kind to bitcoin.
We got news (blocksize, discussion, Craig), we got a price rise (from 250) and we have seen bitcoin very stable.

Now the halving is coming up, maybe some more things from Craig and a solution with larger blocks..

I don't know if it is the year for bitcoin because it all depends on many parameters, such as the global economic situation, people's trust in banks and fiat currencies and also on all the whales that have been hoarding bitcoin for years and when they decide to offload.

We don't know what will happen next year but still it is possible that 2017 will be the year of bitcoin and every year becomes year of the bitcoin Cheesy But I think 2017 the economy will be good enough to proclaim that 2017 will be bitcoin's year.

Despite all these conditions you mentioned I think bitcoin has its own patch somewhat beside main economy tracks. I won't deny that BTC and other financial markets are slightly connected.
But it global situation won't matter as much as people might think, bitcoin is gradually getting stronger despite global economic situation.

Why should whales offload?
If economy crashes and fiat will have less and less value due to printing and inflation everyone holding Bitcoin would be dumb to exchange it for that shitty paper!! I predict the whales will not offload in such a situation. No they will either buy goods with Bitcoin or keep on holding.There are whales out there who say "I have already cashed out of the current system!!No reason to switch back when shit hits the fan soon!"

2017 will be a huge year for bitcoin. bitcoin will have a high price in that year. I predict in 2017 the price of bitcoin could touch the figure 1000USD. with all the possibilities that bitcoin has been recognized by many countries around the world.

I don't want to disagree but for me we have different predictions what will happen with bitcoin for the year 2017.
Let's just hope that 1k USD would be possible next year and it can be a good start for next year.
