I really agree that as of now there is no one that can match bitcoin and also acknowledge that right now it has some issues like transaction fees and transaction speed. Right now i never thought on my wildest dreams that we will reach $10,000 that fast. As we all know we bitcoin hit almost $18,000 but as of this writing we are around $14,000. I think this is just a correction and i do expect that we can end at around $18,000. Regardless of the price before the year end there is only one thing for sure 2017 has been a very good year for bitcoin investors. Hoping for 2018 to be the same.
