That forecast is Mickey Mouse, I made more precise forecasts on my first day [8 months ago] when I didn't even known what a blockchain was. And this guy probably banks $10,000 off ads from that site.
He's got short term at $910. Lol...that's the imminent price
He's got long term at just under $4,000. That's laughable as well.
Presuming bitcoin will not die soon and I don't think it will die for a few more years then an accurate forecast for BTC is more like:
Short term - meaning in the next 3-12 months:
$2,000 - $5,000.
This short term goal is a near guarantee as long as BTC stays alive as there are many near guaranteed catalysts. Such as Amazon and eBay adding BTC. That alone would take BTC to this near term goal.
And if I'm right and the ETF is coming in the next few months then I'd adjust my near term goal to be closer to $5,000.
Long term goal - meaning at least 12-24 months out but more likely 2-5 years out.
As long as BTC stays alive and isn't replaced by the likes of iXcoin then the long term goal is at the least $10,000 (12-24 months out) and could fairly easily touch $50,000 (2-5 years out).
The short term goals I'm pretty certain of but going out 2+ years it's unpredictable due to governments and banks involvement and competing forces [which will be aided and guided by governments and banks].
So yeah, expect $2,000-$3,000 by Easter and at least $5,000 by the end of the year. All things being equal, that would value iXcoin at around $10, but most likely a few coins will go up a lot more and I think IXC will be one of those.
Cause I don't wanna reach my $10 goal off free-riding off Bitcoin, I wanna see $10 and a lot more cause iXcoin is a superior coin which will get massive backing from Smart Money, ironically, because iXcoin is the most suitable technology for SmartMoney.
