The feeling seems to be starting to turn positive again for the market (even media), but we still need several million injected to consolidate this trend. Otherwise, the hype will fade quickly. Forget an ATH in 2019 but 2020 too. I will be fine if Bitcoin stays around $5,500-$6,000 and more than happy if we see the $7,000 by the end of the year.
Its started from a single big candle and everyone becomes positive thinker again. Bitcoin should go beyond the $5500 so we can see a more pricey bitcoin. Let’s not aim for a new ATH, let’s go for a recovering the market trust from real investors and this slow moves can become big when the bull market begin. 
Topic: Realistic Predictions for Bitcoin? - page 7. (Read 1309 times)
literally speaking , prediction are just predictions and its considered unrealistic . however , realistic predicition on the other hand means the prediction was closer to the number that has been predicted . for example i predicted the value of bitcoin will reach 7k usd at the end of this month . if you can see , my prediction are not exage because the numbers are low . this one is an example of realistic predictions and this predictions do have a higher chance to occur .
It will not be steadily since fiat is the leading currency for most the upcoming time. we will get to those values if the majority dont sell to fiat but keep it to spend it again on products/services that will do the same. where more fiat is coming inn less is going out. its a mind set that needs to change.
Bitcoin has not gotten to that level as not to convert to fiat to earn purchasing power. Don't get me wrong am also a believer of cryptocurrency and I think it's the future but for now there are few places where bitcoin can be generally acceptable
The global fiat debt bubble is approaching 250 trillion which is already a big problem for the central bankster cartels.
The confidence of this debt structure is already eroding.
As millennial's enter the economy this debt burden will prove unsustainable and the value of fiat will drop further.
Bitcoin is poised as a deflationary and immutable solution to the looming global financial crisis...
One million by the end of 2020 isn't unrealistic.
But no one saw the Trump phenomena coming and the current brief comeback of the USA economy.
We are seeing both China and Russia buying up gold to hedge the fall of fiat...
Gold is good but not as useful as Bitcoin for P2P and global commerce.
Given the evolution of hand-held devices and associated software the 100 million prediction in 10 years isn't too far fetched a prediction.
Ten years ago Bitcoin was barely a glimmer in the Satoshi eye.
Right now we are seeing the advent of gen 4 nuclear power...so it is a real possibility a financial instrument like Bitcoin could tie it all together and be the foundation for an emerging culture not dependent on government and their threats of nuclear war.

Where are all cryptoinvestors sitting?
Do you want to buy or sell?

It's really tough to realistic predictions for Bitcoin. No one can know what happen in future but when is the question about bitcoin it's going little bit easy to predict. Bitcoin already survive 10 years and now it's the number one cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is the most influential crypto than others. My predictions is bitcoin become more & more popular in future and it's price also increasing day by day. And this crypto stay in number one position and influence others very much.
right, no one will be able to provide a precise prediction on Bitcoin prices and speculations, Bitcoin is Eternal, this is not a prediction but certainly. why I say Bitcoin is eternal because I've seen how Bitcoin can survive even after the whole world has tried to eliminate it through fake news. .
Could it go on a massive run and spike to 20k this year? Sure, who the heck knows. But to be sustainable it would have to be supported by something, maybe if a country or two adopted it as their national currency. Something radical and unforseen. I imagine some will naysay this, but an asset currently worth almost 100 billion increasing in value by 20 times in the next decade is actually insanely optimistic. Look at stocks that started off as penny stocks, they don't keep increasing in value exponentially year after year and although btc isn't a stock, there is a limit to how valuable it can be.

Considering the current trends in the Bitcoin trading market, I don't really think Bitcoin will be able to hit $20k this year. But the crypto ecosystem is full of surprises, there are possibilities for the market value to hit $20k during the final part of this year. One question which always bug me is that, is bitcoin really worth to be valued at $20k??
It is actually the first time I have read a prediction so detailed and realistic. I am done reading predictions bitcoin crashing or bitcoin mooning without even grounds to depend their statement.
First we need BTC to get to a trillion market cap, which I think is definitely doable IF it becomes more easy to buy. Less KYC, more ATMs, but with governments seeing btc as a challenge, that seems unlikely. A lot of media excitement at Bitcoin breaking a 200 billion, 500 billion etc market cap could get it to a trillion.
This one will be one of the key factors for bitcoin to rise again. With ease on access to bitcoin, we can expect people to be able to buy it with ease and comfort, which will somehow increase demand. All things will follow, not to add further cryptocurrency development which helps the whole cryptomarket to gain even more market demand.
I was also supposed to say that after reading this thread,every single details seems to be realistic for thousands of times i have seen predictions but never have this oneFirst we need BTC to get to a trillion market cap, which I think is definitely doable IF it becomes more easy to buy.

Looking forward for things to happen as my investments still sitting on my folios and only waiting for the positivity
Predictions not going to accurately moreover I'm try to predict about Bitcoin. My realistic predictions is bitcoin survive in future and stay in number one position as popular as now. Bitcoin is well designed cryptocurrency and it's technology Blockchain is the best supporting thing which helps bitcoin become more popular to users. I think in future bitcoin become more available in offline transaction and every country will accept bitcoin. Right now some countries are accepted Bitcoin as a offline transaction, in future it's available to everywhere.

interesting predictions, but everything depends on the market that determines the fate of bitcoin, of course, great hopes for us all that bitcoin can be used widely for payment and not used for crime
The next highest price for Bitcoin will be somewhere in 2023 - 2026, approximately 500 000 to 700 000 USD/1 bitcoin
Until then, the bitcoin price will remain at its value approximately 4000 to 5000 USD/1 bitcoin until the end of this year (2019). When the price of 1 bitcoin will be bigger than 6000 USD/1 bitcoin then you can be positive that the next increase in the bitcoin price has begun.
After this price of approximately 700 000 USD/1 bitcoin a new appreciation is possible to 10 000 000 USD/1 bitcoin (it will happen somewhere in 2030-2032).
We do not know this, what we know is that in 2023 - 2026, 1 bitcoin will be priced at 500 000 USD.

1. Less KYC? Not gonna happen. Not at all. Authorities tend to go to the totally opposite direction. We expect that opening a single wallet would require the same procedures as opening a bank account. Including signing the declaration that the coins/tokens belong to you and you only, the purpose of opening the wallet etc.
2. Something, like lifting almost global advertising ban by google, yahoo, facebook etc. would be enough. But in general, if we are speaking about the countries, we think Africa has such potential (starting with countries with the extremely high inflation rate, in some already USD and GBP are used literally as parallel currencies). They were the very first to adopt mobile payments, before more developed countries. They simply passed a few stages of infrastructure development (what was an incredible proof of showing human potential).

it needs to brake 6200 first for big move.i expect we will test 4800 first, if we cant stay there 4200.then we will be ready to test 8k then 10k.if it happens it may be new ath with fomo.
I wonder when that time will happen to reach $8k and $10k. But I don't want to see the price will go down less than $4900 because $4900 is a good number to start to increase back. Now, I see that the candle was beginning to raised and I hope that it will reach $5100 again and then go to a higher price. But still, we are in the moment that bitcoin go down and go up in any second and it makes us careful to buy or sell bitcoin because once we make a wrong buy or sell, we could get stuck in the high price. And right now, I enjoy seeing the chart moved from the lower price to the higher rate.
As the market is experiencing volatile conditions, we should back up the prediction with the market experts, who have been the mind and heart of the cryptocurrency market.
Let’s take a look at the famous Bitcoin predictions:
1 John McAfee Bitcoin Price Prediction
John McAfee, the founder of the popular McAfee software and an ardent Bitcoin follower predicted that Bitcoin will hit $1 million by 2020 following last year’s prediction of $7000 which was well surpassed.
2 Sonny Singh Bitcoin Price Prediction
In a recent interview hosted by Bloomberg’s Emily Chang, Sonny Singh, the chief commercial officer at Bitpay commented on Bitcoin’s future and why it is okay not to panic looking at the current market condition. Singh, who seems to be a Bitcoin maximalist, called Bitcoin an “800-pound gorilla, as it has access to the most notable “network effect” of all decentralized networks. He is assertive of the fact that there is a high possibility that BTC might reach $15,000- $20,000 by Thanksgiving, 2019, explaining that the probability of a crypto ETF and an influx of funding for startups is high on the cards.
3 Fundstrat's Sam Doctor and Tom Lee Bitcoin Price Prediction
Tom Lee, ex-Chief Equity Strategist JP Morgan, and Co-founder and head of research of Fundstrat, believes that the break-even cost of mining 1 BTC directly correlates with the price of the cryptocurrency. He believes BTC would grow as he is counting on more institutional investors taking on Bitcoin and a steady increase in Bitcoin user base.Mr. Lee justified the current fall in the price of bitcoin by referring to the recent plunge in the price of tech stocks, like Amazon, Apple, and Facebook. He is optimistic that increased institutional fortunes would help turn BTC's future around very soon. Sam Doctor, an analyst from Fundsrat along with Lee predicted that by 2019, BTC might reach nothing less than $36,000, with the probability of $64,000 at the maximum and $20,000 at its lowest. A couple of days back, Tom Lee stated that the BTC fair value is much higher than the current price. The current fair value is somewhere between $13,800 and $14,800 which he believes might increase and reach $150,000 per coin as soon as bitcoin wallets account for seven percent of 4.5 billion Visa's holders.
4 Ronnie Moas Bitcoin Price Prediction
Ronnie Moas, a cryptocurrency analyst predicted that BTC might reach $28,000 by 2019. He believes the demand for BTC would increase with its decreasing supply. He made it somewhat clear that by 2019, the adoption rate would increase and hence people would demand more of it. We must remember that BTC is not unlimited in supply.
5 Michael Novogratz Bitcoin Price Prediction
At the Finance Disrupted event organized by The Economist in Manhattan Mike Novogratz, former hedge fund chief and founder of Galaxy Digital stated that he believes that BTC won’t reach$9K this year, and it's likely to break beyond $10,000 in the around the first quarter of 2019. This might take BTC to sky-reaching heights as it might soar way ahead of the all-time-high $20K mark.

Fiat is indeed the main currency, but the problem is not being in fiat bitcoin nor will it be valuable without fiat currency.The problem is bitcoin halving, maybe this can be a profitable and detrimental one. I am sure that in the future bitcoin will be higher but there must be several factors that are obstacles, which are clearly not fiat

Those value of Bitcoin that the OP has said is not impossible because we don't need to pour trillions of dollars to make Bitcoin's price or value go higher and just like what you have said it is on the mindset and when most of the people have a mindset to hodl for longer period of time the possibilities of Bitcoin skyrocketing is high without any kind of manipulation. 
We can't know that for sure though. A realistic prediction isn't that realistic at all because any prediction in this marker has a fair chance of becoming true due to it's heavy volatility. We just choose to either be conservative about it or overly confident like john mcaffee lol.
