It is true that bitcoin is worth $1000 right now and we are hoping that it is going to be stable at $900 or $1000 per bitcoin, but the government becoming interested in bitcoin? I don't think so. It is a poison to them, so instead of supporting bitcoin, they are making articles and news saying that bitcoin is illegal and some other negative thoughts about it, because they won't get any taxes from it and they can't steal it like fiat, that is why they hate bitcoin.
If all goes well for Bitcoin this year, it might increase its value more than $1000, as well as become closer to being used as a mainstream currency. What do you think?
Someone said that bitcoin will going to pump to $1400 per bitcoin this time, I don't know if its true but let's just wait and see if this thing will really happen, if it is true, then it is a good news because we can earn a really huge profit if this actually happens, specially for those who holds their coins for a very long time.
This year people hopes are keep increasing because the price bitcoin is 1030$ today, but my assumption it will touch up to 1500$ in the year 2017. Because once suddenly it reaches to 2000$ many people start afraid about bitcoin. Bitcoin will attract more people only when it has steady growth.
