he made many topics with random numbers. i agree with you "the guys without the technical knowledge or proper understanding of bitcoin and bitcoin network".
The problem lies in those who believe these numbers and then put all their investment and savings and then lose all their money.
100k$ is so high price. it is hard to be rich from buying and save it for 10 years or more.
people need to learn about investment so they can make 100% profits every 3 or 4 yaers
Topic: Bitcoin price will be $100,000 by 2018 (Read 628 times)
I think much is depending on lighting network, If it rols out widly and be successful, we can see another 1000% easy.
A few days ago it looked like bitcoin was going down to 11K. But now it looks like the price is going up again to maybe 18K this week. So it's hard to predict what the price will be these days. 30K this year sounds quite reasonable, 100K is not likely.
Bitcoin is volatile we can't predict when the price will drop or the price continue to increased only time can tell so if you are bitcoin holder you should hold your bitcoin even you are seeing the price wen't to fall if you don't have patience you will be lose so hold your bitcoin in longer time and wait for the price to increase to make your invest to make more profitable..

Not sure about $100K whoever says so, but $30K-$40K is still possible. I agree nothing is impossible but similarly hitting that high within a year is not practical enough, including the jump it will be facing within the year. As the value increases to more high, the volatility will increase as well.
No sane investor is going to adopt BTC for a long time to come, if ever.
Peter Thiel is not a sane investor?
My advice: don't try to fit the market into your graphs. Let the market show the way.
It seems some price exaggeration actually because the amount you mentioned that is $100k is much than which can be crossed by year ending 2018 as we can make some logic by monitoring price graphs that it can reach maximum of $50-$60k but in near future this landmark can also be achieved.
If bitcoin give more popularity ot itself then 100k is also achievable it need more people to use bitcoin not only invest in but to use it as payment also and as we are getting amazon and McDonalds news this shows that prices will rise more in coming days and good time for the bitcoin investor community is coming and I think if more regions will accept bitcoin, prices will go higher than the 100k but still we are short of investors, 
Yeah, there is a possibility once the bitcoin "Lightning Network" is fully implemented, it will speed up the bitcoin transaction speed with ZERO transaction fee. With the LN bitcoin will be back on the track and continue shooting from where it stops to the moon. With LN every price is achievable over time.
I think $100k is an exaggeration. It would mean 100x increase in 2 years, which is extremely unlikely. I am optimistic about bitcoin, but the rise will be probably slower than in 2017.
Agree, I think anything north of $30,000 would be great progress. We can’t expect to see 1000% price increases every year.
I think $100k is an exaggeration. It would mean 100x increase in 2 years, which is extremely unlikely. I am optimistic about bitcoin, but the rise will be probably slower than in 2017.
Why all the hype, my friend? Did you buy at the peak and now got stuck? 
I will be happy if the price reach to 100000 dollars but it seems very difficult because it is a very big amount and today’s price is just 12000 dollars after decrease in the price in the past few days. So it will take a long time to reach to 100000 dollars. I think there is nothing worthy like bitcoin in the world if the price reaches to that level. I will be very surprising price for the whole investors.
Huge gap in price (90 k$), but not in percentage, as it's less than 1000% rise. We did better in 2017 jumping from 1000$ to 13 k$ (+1300%). Indeed the gap in price is smaller (+12 k$).
From now, however, 100 k$ will be hard to reach in the near future if bitcoin doesn't evolve to be able to sustain high transactions number that a wider adoption supposes. Bitcoin will have to find solutions as segwit or Lightning Network to be able to support more transactions without asking for higher fees and too much time.
if not, we will not moving anywhere
altcoin is in the rise against BTC, they have something against btc technology or have new community and user for their coin
Another prediction, the guys without the technical knowledge or proper understanding of bitcoin and bitcoin network are the ones making such predictions, by only looking at the previous bitcoin growth chart. It is every funny, actually! We shall see about that, then. 
Price will be 70 k end of 2018.
Different people have different predictions about the price. Time will tell us the right price at the end of this year. I think that 70k is a huge amount and 100 k is far beyond the limits. People are investing in a huge ratio but may it not reach to this level. There is a huge gap between today’s price and 100k. It is possible in the next few years but may not possible in the next year. The price fell down at the end of the year.

This is not happening. Bitcoin is entering a multi year bear market again.
Just compare this current crash to the crash of 2012/2013; they are like carbon copies of each other.
The previous bubble was predicated on several factors: Winklevoss ETF, technicals, and adoption, etc.
When the actual events came to fruition, BTC was in a bear market.
The Japanese exchanges are the new Chinese exchanges, which reached ATH before BFX, Stamp, etc, just like the Chinese exchanges did back in 2012/13.
A simple nonchalant bad news became the tipping point to the crash just like 2012 when a stupid "Chinese bans bank related btc transactions" news was the tipping point for the multi year bear market.
BTC is entering the same bear market again. No sane investor is going to adopt BTC for a long time to come, if ever.
no and never the price of bitcoin will be $100000 by 2018 it is completely fake because now a days the price of bitcoin is $13000 only and the estimation of bitcoin price will completely fake. But it only estimate that the price of bitcoin will be double the price of now a times in 2018 because never the price of any currency will stable in the market there will always up and down take place in the market so anything possiblities could happened with the price of bitcoin. Just compare this current crash to the crash of 2012/2013; they are like carbon copies of each other.

No, I think it just $50000 in next year
Well everybody is saying that the price will be touching those levels by the next year, but i dont know.
But with the actual increases and decreases that bitcoin is having it could take more than a year.
But with the actual increases and decreases that bitcoin is having it could take more than a year.
I also believe on it, and if bitcoin will not reach at $100000 in 2018, then bitcoin will be come at 2019. Because i rely on it that bitcoin has a quality to reach at this price and i will wait for it that bitcoin will come at $100000, then bitcoin will be changed my world and also my class, then i will be a rich man.
BTC if had to reach at those levels means it has to rise by 6 times form present level in 2018 so that it can reach that 100k level. This is totally impossible and will burst out if it tries to even reach anywhere near it. Its always good to have a reliable and growing steadily so that it does not crash huge and make a long term negative impact.

$100,000 by 2018 is not possible and I hope this is possible in another 2 to 3 years or more than that. However, if drastically Bitcoin price changes like 5 times more than now in a year would not be stabilized. Slow and steady wins the race. Bitcoin is moving on its way towards substantial growth.
Nothing is impossible for Bitcoin and your expected target may be possible if some developed countries accept bitcoin as alternate to paper currency in 2018.

I think the price could not possibly bitcoin reach $100,000 on next year 2018 because the price of bitcoin can not diperdiksikan price, indeed from a few days ago even a few months ago bitcoin has reached $20 k this sunggguh exceptional but now the price of the bitcoin is experiencing instability. tersebet prices probably could happen 10 years that will come, if in 2018 bitcoin price could reach approximately $50 k
We saw a massive increase in bitcoin price in 2017 and it is a question mark whether the same continues in 2018. The price has surged beyond our expectations in last 12 months but now it is struggling around $16k, I think it is impossible to reach $100k by 2018 but we can expect the price to continue and may reach around $40k.
There is no reason for a new bear market in 2018. Bitcoin at 10k is cheap, this thing has the potential to change the world.
LOL. Try to pay your lunch with bitcoin and tell us how it went and if you actually succeeded, how much it did cost. Good luck !
Although, we cannot expect transactions to go on like this and I am sure scaling issue will be solved, which would really make things a lot better than what we have now.
I'm not so sure about that. With 1,800 new coins mined each day, imagine how much new $ would need to enter the markets only to sustain these levels.
This prediction is very exaggerated but it is possible to happen but not in next year it will need couple of year to make it happen. Much better to have more bitcoin than thinking what would be the price for the incoming years because we all know that alue of bitcoin always increasing.
It is very exaggerated but we didn't even expected or if someone did predicted last year that bitcoin will reach $19,000 on December 2017, do you think it's still exaggerated?
There are predictions that are happening in real life and we are not aware that it's possible to happen though we can't accept that it is.
But if that will ever happen then it's a great feeling to see bitcoin hitting $100,000. As of now, I'm good for seeing bitcoin being stable at $20,000 at the end of the year.
And if bitcoin will be more than that on 2018, it's good.
Price will be 70 k end of 2018.
Okay! Let us keep assuming what the price would be but the truth is that whatever is meant to happen by the end of 2018 will still happens anyway. However, 70k would not be too bad if it actually did happen.A lot of us could not have seen the present one coming even late this year seeing bitcoin over $10k and almost getting to $20k whereas it even did in some exchanges, and we cannot say what would happen in next year, but for now, we even need to wait to see what happens at the end of this year.
What ‘action’ can governments take?. The cat is already out of the bag. The only reason we are seeing so many comments which are opposed to the $100,000 EOY scenario is because humans tend to struggle with the concept of exponential growth because we are hard coded to think in linear terms.
One year is a VERY long time in Crypto and 2018 is likely to be the longest year we’ve had yet. Bitcoin became mainstream in 2017. 2018 will be the year that mass adoption takes place and there is no reason to believe that a $500,000 btc is not possible.

$ 100,000 by 2018, I think this will not happen. The price of new bitcoin has increased sharply in recent years. This is a leap for bitcoin. So, in my opinion, bitcoin needs more time to reach $ 100,000

I agree this is extremely possible, right now it is better to just keep on holding bitcoins and dump the alts already. It's not worth buying altcoins right now because this is the time that we should be dumping alts and buying bitcoins as it is quite low right now. The possibility that it would be worth $100,000 in the near future is extremely possible.

There is no reason for a new bear market in 2018. Bitcoin at 10k is cheap, this thing has the potential to change the world.
It is just a speculation, but anything can absolutely happen but not from the present angle anyway. However, looking at the angle back in late 2016, one would not expect what we ended up seeing at the end of this year. I am sure so many things would occur in 2018 that would really make some difference, and I would rather just live with the moment and see how things play out than get too optimistic.
No, I don't think that this is really possible to reach $100k by 2018, this is too soon. I think the price won't be $100k till the next bitcoin block reward halving.
The road to reach $15k in 1 year is quiet easy as compared to climbing the mountain to reach $100k in 2018 with the governments like Indian and Chinese against bitcoin and mining.
The time line to reach $100k looks short, but we cannot deny that such a growth won't happen. When years pass based on the increasing adoption surely the price will peak much higher than that of the present value. In such a regard I believe bitcoin price will grow similar to the present year in 2018.

Yes, you are being very optimistic, but if we see another big pump maybe i can change my mind, i am very optimistic too, but it doesn't mean that i am not seeing bitcoin making another x5 during this year.
Who knows, just let give it some time.
Who knows, just let give it some time.
7X is a possibility. Especially after 2017. I'm heavily invested in BTC since 2015 and would be happy with $20K/BTC and 10% gains/year. Good luck!
Bitcoin $100,000 by 2018 is wishful thinking. We see a small correction these days and it seems hard to reach 20K. The price could drop even lower to 8K. Sure the price will go up again next year, but 30K is an amount we should be very glad to reach.
No one can tell but let's hope that it would be. But I have doubts for it right now since many good coins are preferred by people nowadays and choice really is half by now if it would be bitcoin or it would be some other alternative coins that gaining more popularity. Litecoin, Monero, Ripple, Ethereum, Dashcoin, Digibyte, and even Doge is on the hype too. I don't know what is happening on market right now but traders are getting more profit if they would go on flow because of this hype.
$100k seems a bit of a stretch. But so did $20k last December. So I guess we will wait and see.
With the increasing choices of people in the crytoworld with many great alternative coins coming which unique features can match up with bitcoin not necessarily closely but can cope up. And the issues facing regarding the high transaction fee which is killing the bitcoin false accusation that is being lamented on bitcoin by some of the famous company and business persons.
I feel that the price is too far away, and I do not think that's possible. although bitcoin has the potential to have a high price, but within a year, bitcoin can not add $ 90k. well, even if all countries accept bitcoin, it takes time.
still imposible bitcoin price incraese 100k dollar in 2018
if bitcoin price reach to 100k dollar, all people, crypto user not use bitcoin again, because sending fee expensive
example sending fee 100k satoshi, equal 1000 dollar, so another coin can replace bitcoin position to number one in crypto curency
if bitcoin price reach to 100k dollar, all people, crypto user not use bitcoin again, because sending fee expensive
example sending fee 100k satoshi, equal 1000 dollar, so another coin can replace bitcoin position to number one in crypto curency
I won't agree with what they are saying. That will be a huge leap knowing thst Bitcoin's market value is struggling to tobreach 20000 USD. So I think it is not possible for Bitcoin to reach it within just a year. There'll be more years to come for Bitcoin to have a value as that high. But let's just see how thing will happen for Bitcoin.
If the regulators (in particular, the SEC) take a tough position against crypto-currencies, we will not be surprised at the descent of the bitcoin rate to $ 1000. If the world regulators are loyal to bitcoin, large investment funds will join the purchases of crypto-currencies. If they invest even 5-10% of their assets in bitcoin, these will be significant amounts by the standards of cryptomir. In this case, $ 50,000 and $ 100,000 look quite achievable.
Dont you think that $100k is a little bit high? i dont think that it will reach that price. Maybe $50k or $75k is the maximum price that i can believe in. And i would instantly sell at $30k or a little bit more.
bitcoin end 2017 with 1700% growth it is hard to have two growing years like this.
2018 will be stable and rising shortly 30,000$
2018 will be stable and rising shortly 30,000$
Why all the hype, my friend? Did you buy at the peak and now got stuck?
Price will be 70 k end of 2018.
If it will, i pray i have atleast 2btc by then, thereafter we will wait and see what will follows. I really believe this speculation can become more real than reality itself. Thus, we can never trivialize its possibility. What we should do is to prepare ourselves in case it do happen.
