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?

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.

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

Beefcake!!!

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.

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.

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.

Also every year there is less and less bitcoins available. That can push price even more up.
By 2040 we won't even have 1 million bitcoins available.

Bitcoin is on a good path. It's a bit slow now because of all the alts exploding and new investments going straight to alts instead of Bitcoin but it will for sure reach $25,000+ this year.

Bitcoin price increased over 10x last year, I'm sure it can handle 2x this year

Why does everyone have fear? Sell their bitcoins. It is extremely stupid now to sell it. Whales just cashing out (correction) and it is normal situation. After all, correction is an integral part of growth. In any case, bitcoin will update its price records. I think in the second half of the next year we will see huge rise of Bitcoin and we'll see 50K$ in 2018.

How should we understand this? You're not selling at 17k because you're waiting for 20 to do it? Is that your big plan for your coins?

Please, let it break 20k so I can sell and fill my bed with fiat money. I'll buy myself a "bitcoin millionaire" t-shirt when i sell it all for fiat and get myself a lambo, because that's what rich people do, they buy overvalued cars... Signed: yours truly, criptogenious.

I saw the forecast for this year BTC is to reach 55k $ at the end of the year. 25k $ should reach in July this year. We must wait for a while ...

Everybody is predicting that bitcoin will hit 50k $ by end of 2018, personally I whink it will hit 20k by the end of jan/feb, and it will fluctuate between 20-30k for about 6,7 months. I just think that hype alone will cary this coin.

They're essentially going to have to bankroll all of the transactions that happen through LN, and we have to trust that those transactions will ultimately verify with the Blockchain. And what types of companies are able to bankroll these channels? Mainly banks. LN introduces a centralized aspect to Bitcoin

Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Lightning goes very far against the whole principle of the white paper. It is a total abortion that will be the sure end of bitcoin. But don't worry, you can still buy ETH cheap. ETH will be 20000 by the end of next year. Mark my words.

Going by your post history I wouldn't trust a word you say. LOL I mean just look at your "predictions".

As btc is the main crypto currency and the reserve for the others it is the most stable one and if you are not a risk taker and want profit btc is the optimum investment i believe.

$25000 ? Can bitcoin does? Its very high actually and now it is stock on last year's value already , a week with a limit movement, from $12000 to $15000. Aside there are so many coins with thousands of percentage increased over a year and not far from how bitcoin did start like ETH. I think it is the year for ETH, BCH and XMR and bitcoin will be stock on its current price.

In my opinion of $ 25,000 this is not the limit for bitcoin, most likely by the end of 18 years it will be worth it. I'm more interested in how much one Bitcoin will cost when they all get it.

The developers working on the Lightning Network, should fast track the tweeks on the system and give us the scaling we need to take this to the Moon.

The developers of Lightning are bullshitting you just like they have been bullshitting you for over two years now. Lightning is still a million miles away. They promoted 'the first on chain Lightning transaction' with great fanfare because they need to give the community hope. You are going to have to trust me on this if you are too fucking stupid technically to figure it all out. However, Lightning is still a million miles away and won't be real for at least another two years. Are you dumb? Even SegWit is not being adopted yet. SegWit will come way before Lightning. But, adoption remains very low for SegWit.
