I don’t think so. But we can’t predict if this year will be the down fall of bitcoin. If looked back the charts of 2017, it’s very impressive although we can expect that the bitcoin market will be profitable. The bitcoin price correction have been reached and it’s hardly to fall down again.
I would suggest that you check the historical price of bitcoin dating back maybe 2 years or so and you will see that it is common for BTC to fluctuate. Given that it goes down dramatically if there is FUD like banning or regulations being implemented. Vice versa when there is good news. But as the saying goes, nobody can tell what 2018 holds for BTC. What we need is faith in the technology and patience.
In YourBlock2018 new year, bitcoin fell to the new year. Some people say, bitcoin is the rich's gambling game, whose financial resources are strong, who will last, who will win. But in the eyes of the ordinary people, this is just a boom bubble of false big space, which will break in the morning and evening.
I dont think so, if we look back at BTC charts a few years ago, it's noticeable that it usually fluctuates at the beginning of the year.
Probably this is the effect of holiday seasons all over the world, people tend to convert their BTC into their respective fiat money to buy valuables or services in establishments that doesn't accept BTC yet.
But in the past year, BTC gained so much popularity that it caught the eyes of the government and banks all over the world.
BTC will continue to be popularize and maybe in the near future banks and establishments will start to accept BTC as mode of payment to most commodities. If that happens, such fluctuations will be minimized or eliminated.
2018 has the most oppurtunities for BTC, so we cant say that its the downfall of BTC, its just getting started.

I don't believe that will be the case. Although Bitcoin is now more inconvenient to use than other currencies such as Litecoin, I believe Bitcoin will continue to be used as a primary currency to store value and to trade pairs because of how synonymous 'Bitcoin' has become with 'Cryptocurrency' in mainstream media. Whenever you begin talking about cryptocurrency, the laymen will say 'oh like bitcoin?' in the same way that we say 'Google' when referring to searching for a term online.
Due to this, I believe a majority of new crypto users will flock to Bitcoin first before venturing out (if they ever do) and due to this, their will be sustained demand for Bitcoin in the long run, even without the Lightning Network.

It's an old news every new year there are always predictions that "this will be the downfall" of bitcoin.
Errrr I don't think that's even possible with the popularity and trust bitcoin earned to this present day.
Every year there will will positive speculation regarding the growth of bitcoin. But, at times the growth won't be taking place as predicted leading to massive drop. One such huge drop is the one that we experienced recently. This will further move forward to grow as the adoption keeps increasing. Errrr I don't think that's even possible with the popularity and trust bitcoin earned to this present day.
Start of this year is definitely not very good for bitcoin.
Korea, China, France decided to restrict bitcoin turnover. Futures contracts, which is new to bitcoin, also correct it's value.

Yeah, this is a serious question. Im kinda worried. I jist started and hoping to earn as much as my friend but it seems like government tries to take down bitcoin. Do you guys have any idea if theres really an instance that bitcoin will end soon? I hope not. I havent even earn anything yet. Haha!
Before i came into cryptosphere my mentor told me the price will crash early in 2018 till around march and after ward pick up,i think this is what is happening as more people are getting to know more about bitcoin so its to early for it to fade away
Nope because as we can see in its graph for the past few years,bitcoin was really falling but still it managed to get back and even come up with a higher value. So I suggest you to not worry mate. It is only natural for the bitcoin to decrease its value to give some time for the investors to buy it and invest in it.
no. 2018 is not the fall of bitcoin prices. a few years ago, bitcoin is not what it is now. indeed bitcoin will experience an increase and decrease to be dititik safe. let's wait, stable bitcoin in 2018
I don't think the price of bitcoin will be cheaper in 2018. In my opinion, the bitcoin price is being restrained artificially. Today expires the first futures options on the CME, now nothing restrains bitcoin from growth. As soon as the Chinese investors return to the market, we are waiting for take-off.
I don't think so. Bitcoin is unstable. We all know it. It is normal for bitcoin to increase and decrease its value. We have to be patient and wait for the right time for everything.

It is too early to tell that 2018 will be the year bitcoins will be dethroned. A lot if factors can spike the price of bitcoins and push the price either down or up. A lot can happen in a year. If you were to ask me, however, 2018 won't be the end of bitcoins. I have complete and utter trust in it.

Surely you are still a newbie coz with a little dump you are already getting anxious. Please please please do remember that bitcoin will always rise after a dump, because that is its nature. It may falter for a moment but buyers are always there to buy the dips. Given a scenario that it won't rise again, their will might be another King, fitted to the throne--it might be any of the thousands of altcoins out there. But then again who knows what the future holds, who am I to tell the future. But one thing is for sure, I trust my instinct. Do you trust yours???
I don't think so, because a downfall may affect the other coins out there. Currently Bitcoin is the market leader for all cryptocurrencies. It presently has a strong brand name to adhere to. If Bitcoin falls badly this year, it will create a general skepticism about other cryptocurrencies too, so you can possibly see a situation of the others falling as well, when the leading coin is not doing so well.
Don't let the FUD goes into you because if you will allow the FUD to get into yourself then you will not be able to invest and believe in bitcoin anymore because you will just think that almost all of the things that we are saying here is just a bluff for you. 2018 will be another great year for bitcoin and not a downfall for sure. Just look at the history of bitcoin based on charts and compare it right now.

The value of Bitcoin is fluctuations and this is a normal. There's many evidences that these is a normal. You must read more information and articles about cryptos and look what happen before. I'm sure that after a few months, bitcoin price will raise again.
Decreasing the price does not mean that it will be the end of bitcoin. But instead be happy because this will be the chance for the new adopters to buy and to everyone who is interested in investing bitcoins for future purposes.
