The estimated price of the bitcoin for me around 2019 will be 50k dollars because the highest possible price of the bitcoin in this year 201u will be 50k dollars. But no one know what is the exact value of the bitcoin in the year 2019.

Well, it sounds cool. But it's just prediction. I hope price will go higher day by day.
I think that is a very precise prediction.
try you see since the 18th of yesterday bitcoin continue to rise, I'm very happy to see bitcoin start to green, this also dismiss negative opinion warren buffet I think.

Guys really. The recent price rise doesn't mesn anything just yet. I know we've all been badly beatem by a besr market that's been going on for most of the year but try to be a little conservative with your expectations. Few people expeced btc to go below 6k after it went to 9k last april. It happened then it can very well happen again.
I think if and when the ETF decision in August is positive, the BTC prices will jump up and skyrocket. The markets are pricing this decision now.

Yeah, I wish. Bitcoin could soar as high as $64,000 next year. Here is the estimate:
"We believe the current path of hash power growth supports a BTC price of about $36,000 by 2019 year end, with a $20,000-$64,000 range," Sam Doctor, head of data science research at Fundstrat, said in a report. Hash power refers to the processing power computers need to generate bitcoins.

That's roughly four times or more from bitcoin's price Thursday of near $9,300.
The economics of bitcoin mining also likely create a support level for the cryptocurrency, Doctor said.

Most of the people or cryptocurrency analyst today are expecting for the price of bitcoins to reach $50k dollars before the year ends and if the market price will always double every year then it can actually reach $100k dollars on 2019.

Now that bitcoin is getting on a bull again, I think we will be fine, and the estimate will hold.

There is a chance that the price by that year will actually reach $100k dollars because people today are always invest even more before the year ends just like what happened last year.

That is simply one company's prediction. No different than anybody else's prediction. There is nothing to be surprised about because its opinion, not fact. Bitcoin might only be $20k in 2019, or it might be $100k. We'll find out in the next 17 months.

Hello everybody. Very valuable in this article is that until 2022 analysts do not see the price of bitcoin above $ 64,000. Although, this is just a prediction. How many people - so many opinions. Recently, I have not heard a single prediction about the death of Bitcoin in the coming year, it's already very good. It is hardly worth making serious conclusions and it is hardly worth considering these forecasts as a call to action, but this shows in the first place. turn that the leading analytical agencies see a huge prospect of digital gold. Time will tell .
The future is hidden and nobody can say anything about the future price of bitcoin, but I am sure that the price will go up because people are putting their money in it which will cause increase in the price.As I guess in 2019 the estimated price of bitcoin will be $30000. The most important thing is investment cap, which cause growth in the price.

Yes Im surprised how peoeple still believe in forecasts like this.
Some people forecast things in order to get some fame or create a useless wave of discussions among the public. Well if we stay realistic, we are not going to get affected by these untrue predictions. We still need bitcoin to get legal in countless countries and still there is small portion of the world population who are aware of the miracles that can take place after investing into and supporting bitcoin.
Well i would much prefer a useless wave of positive discussion than the same in a negative way.
Of course its a prediction and the idea behind it could have an influence on bitcoins value in 2019.
As the mining difficulty raises so too will the effeciency of mining rigs i believe.
Regardless of all the predictions good or bad i believe 2019 will be better than '18

In 2019 in my opinion the price will be more than $25k or $30k, because there is a lot of time to go in 2019 and now the price will increase because the market cap is increasing day by day. Price depends on market cap and when market cap increases price increases automatically. Now a day people are dishearten from bitcoin investment and they afraid of investment in bitcoin but soon this worst situation will last.

So you can not say negative on bitcoin because everything is positive.

And here I am getting my badget for my daily cost. Bitcoin is number 1 for all its users. If you do not use bitcoin to keep him silent because he does not know the good grace we receive from bitcoin.

Bitcoin will be always number 1 for me, because he is the first crypto currency and certainly the most powerful. And he always holds the highest positions in everything and I am sure that we always

If that happened I will be extremely happy, I do not have much bitcoin but I have enough of it that if bitcoin reached that price my life will change I just hope that my investments in altcoins go up before that so I can get my hands on even more bitcoin before bitcoin skyrockets again, but even if I would like that such a huge increase in the price it does not seem that likely.

Well, there are a lot of altcoins and bitcoin is in a different class by itself, but the altcoins have different purposes in education, security, exchanges, etc.

of course there are a lot of altcoins because alts can easily be created not unlike to bitcoin that it cant be duplicated anymore because bitcoin is the main primary crypto.

bitcoin does also have a lot of purpose and usage not just a currency alone but it can also be an asset and can be use in trading or investing . although i do agree that alts have a more complex usage because there are lots of them and single alts do have a different purpose.

Predicting unpredictable is something that shamans do. I would not call this "estimation".
Like similarly near to the crystal ball thing that you can foresee the future price and its exact date, at the end of the day this was called speculation based on future mining, we will be surprised because the price is really unpredictable when that year comes that we can just guess nearly to its accurate price, but I hope it will happen base on their prediction that would be another level of ATH.

Don't expect altcoins to rise in value as much as Bitcoin.
The overwheling majority is trash!
And Ethereum has a lot of issues to solve. And as much it is loved, backed and pushed by corporations, if Ethereum will not be able to solve it's problems, this thing will drop hard.

Mining cost increases will increase the price because miners will sell it above their cost. For example, if it costs 8k to mine, they will not sell their mined bitcoin for 7k. It is too big to fail because a lot of large corporations and people, including nations invested in this thing.
Mining supply dictates prices because the total supply is limited. If you store national currencies under your bed they will, over time, become worthless.

Analysis is flawed, it is based on the premise that making something gives it a value equal to it's input costs, which is total horseshit. More bitcoins already exist than will ever be mined in the future. The thesis that mining supply dictates prices is no longer valid, it's only one input

Price $ 100,000 is a high price, and to reach that price will take a very long time. And I think in the year 2019 bitcoin can not reach the price of $ 100,000.

None of this comes to reality ,maybe neared but never been,and the problem is most of those who reads something like this believe that this will happens,

Why not be contented on what will bitcoin brings to us?instead of expecting in false hopes
People are getting more greed which is the reason they want to hear such things like these.But it may happen or not because as you said no one really knows what is going to heppen and the technical analysis goes wrong at most of the times before of the decentralized technology.

Personally I think we can get 50k to 70k price for 2019  as the highest price.,As we have observe in the past years, the price usually struggles in the first 3months of the year but it kicks in again by the 2nd quarter.,people and industries are starting to realize the impact of cryptos in their businesses and these will lead to a mayor change in the cryptocurrency world.

On the basis of the simplest points being often the most true I would have to disagree on this simple point.    BTC price can fall below the mining cost, its possible in other commodities and happens commonly.  It leads to productive decline and also losses in those company operations but it doesnt mean the commodity price cannot fall.

The funny thing is that everyone has a different prediction. John McAfee predicts $1,000,000 by the end of 2020. If I knew for sure that Bitcoin would reach $64,000 or even just $36,000 by the end of 2019, I would buy as many Bitcoins as I could now. But we just don’t know for sure. In fact there are those that predict Bitcoin will eventually go to zero.

We are not going there, just relax. The main sign that these predictions based on the previous experience, don't work anymore is Consensus 2018. Previously all these events just immediately led to the amazing price growth (not only for BTC, but for alts in top-250 also). But now the price was just indifferent to this event.
Tomas Lee predicted that BTC would have reached $15k by now, but even he made a mistake.

Another Fundstrat prediction? Proceed with caution!

I'm glad they've provided some rationale for their prediction: hash power growth. But I don't see the causal link between hash power growth and bitcoin price growth. The hash power alone refers to how many bitcoin miners are participating in the activity and the difficulty of mining (which corresponds to the number of bitcoins left to be mined).

But hashing power is also an indicator of the network's growth, that can also be an indicator of a growing demand by miners for more mining chips from the ASIC manufacturing industry.

I believe that miners are still taking the risk means that there is still a demand for Bitcoins. Include that with the next halving on 2020 then we will see all time highs again.

They also mention economics and capex and cost of mining machines. It's as if they're implying that if bitcoin is more expensive to mine that the price of bitcoin will have to increase. But the price activity doesn't work this way. They're implying that bitcoin miners will hold their bitcoin until they receive a price that guarantees a sufficient profit margin. Do bitcoin miners do this today? If not, we cannot assume they'll do it in the future.

"High price" is the price we have today partly because of the network's growth. How high was Bitcoin 3 years ago and how high was the hash power? There is a correlation.

Fundstrat's "prediction" may be not be correct but their idea in general is.

Clueless!
everyone has their respective predictions about bitcoin prices in the future, I think bitcoin will reach $ 30k in 2019.

I hope I am wrong and you are correct...I have a lot of BTC (or enough where a 4k drop would be bad, very bad at 4k)

My current view is to sell the BTC (some or part) and invest in altcoins (LISK comes to mind, a pos coin an others)

This whole mt. gox dumping of 1.4 Billion USD of BTC has me 'twitchy'

may need to 'hunt' elsewhere (Altcoins) until this clears up, hopefully by the end of the year..that is a lot of BTC to eat by 2019!

Unsure, pondering options

Bitcoin could soar as high as $64,000 next year, investment research firm Fundstrat predicts
"We believe the current path of hash power growth supports a BTC price of about $36,000 by 2019 year end, with a $20,000-$64,000 range," Sam Doctor, head of data science research at Fundstrat, said in a report. Hash power refers to the processing power computers need to generate bitcoins.
That's roughly four times or more from bitcoin's price Thursday of near $9,300.
The economics of bitcoin mining also likely create a support level for the cryptocurrency, Doctor said.

I can never find info on if they take into consideration that the mt. gox trustee has to move 1.4 Billion USD of BTC by the end of the year (IMHO, I

can't see this going on into the 3rd year of the mt. gox trustee)

that IMHO, is why the price is dorked sideways and is not recovering but in fits and starts

As the difficulty for mining bitcoin increases, it will be consuming more power and will be using high end mining rigs. Thus the overall mining activity will be very costly and in this case the miners will have no choice but to hold their bitcoins until such time that they can sell it. This move will be causing a spike on bitcoins price but the moment the expected price reached a certain level and the miners will sell their coins another temporary crash will occur. But after that the prices will go up again.

no it doesn't work like that.
when you run a business (a bitcoin mining operation in this case) then you will have bills to pay and in order to have money to pay those bills you will have to sell your product (in this case new bitcoins that you get from mining). you can't hold those and pay the bills out of your pocket. and if your business is no longer profitable you stop the costs (meaning shutting down miners).
and miners don't cause a crash because they are constantly selling their coins and majority of them don't sell on exchanges. they sell off the market.

I think this can reach the prices this year Bitcoin. It seems to me that we will move forward with 100K next year. We may be near the great rises very soon. But I think that there are a few problems to be solved first. Transfer speed for example!

Bitcoin lover!
The price of bitcoin in the coming years can only be spoken by someone who has visited the future and knows him. Everything else, this guessing on the coffee grounds. Bitcoin in general is unpredictable in its value. I do not remember that anyone predicted that by the end of last year it would rise to $ 20,000, as well as the fact that it would then drop to almost $ 6,000. Therefore, no one knows how he will behave in the future. However, an increase in its price by the end of next year to $ 64,000 will again introduce a very large confusion in prices and this will affect all the Crypto-currency. It is necessary to imagine what the next bitcoin correction will be after such growth and how long it will last.

bitcoin price prediction is still spelled out 50:50, could rise also could fall in price but in my opinion in 2019 bitcoin prices will rise ..

Predictions are all nice, but they stay in the predictions range, no one should ever rely on a prediction that someone's else made.
Those predictions usually are just random and are based on true speculation, no analyze is being involved.
Not only that,usually the persons who do the predictions has a position open, so their opinion is not natural and they are most likely to choose based on their position.

In 2014/2015 everyone was saying bitcoin would be 10k by 2016, it took a full year later to reach that price, I think it's somewhat irresponsible to think that bitcoin will shoot back up to all time highs faster this time around. It took a 2-3 bear trend to finally fizzle out around a halving to ramp up to a bull market again....could be the same thing here...we have to wait until 2020 to see bitcoin around 50k.

If you don't like it then sell, I and many others hodl'd through the roughest times when bitcoin made lows around $200.....the newer retail investors i see on youtube and on reddit are so spoiled and entitled it's sickening.

There is trouble abrewing
unfortunately their "prediction" is nearly as meaningless as all the others who are predicting a drop because you can not predict bitcoin like this. you can say it will rise in the long term because that much is inevitable thanks to growing demand and a limited supply that bitcoin has but when and how much of it is never predictable.

i don't understand this part either:
"We believe the current path of hash power growth supports a BTC price of about $36,000 by 2019 year end,

what does hash power have anything to do with the price? it just shows mining bitcoin is so profitable that the number of bitcoin miners is increasing.

Are not you getting tired of this what you called experts and big names or agency's?
None of this comes to reality ,maybe neared but never been,and the problem is most of those who reads something like this believe that this will happens,

Why not be contented on what will bitcoin brings to us?instead of expecting in false hopes

Holding th currency will undoubtedly be in the best interest of bitcoin everywhere because with more and more people holding their coins, the more stable and less volatile the currency is going to be which will lead in a surge in the price of bitcoins, what am afraid is that when everyone starts to sell am sure that it will bring the value down again.
