before I make my prediction, first look at these predictions:
Kenetic Co-Founder: Bitcoin to Trade at $30,000 by Late 2019, Regardless of Bitcoin ETF
Upcoming Supply Cut Will See Bitcoin Prices Rise Further, Brian Kelly Predicts
has an exaggerated forecast and has a prediction that can be realistic, my prediction is that we will finish 2019 with the price of $12000
Ough, and not to mention that "time traveller" subreddit that gets trending mentions every year or so, where the guy's actually predicting much more than that.
I will say though, as unlikely as I think it is, once Bitcoin makes for its ATH again, then 30k and 50k shouldn't be too impossible to think of. Guys like Tom Lee talk about "Real" FOMO at 10k but I think it's going to get unreal at 20k, IF it happens this year (it won't).
I thought 8888 was a good end of year prediction just months ago. And now we've surpassed it.
It's interesting that you bring up the Time Traveler Reddit post. If he really came from the future, he would have known that the price hit $1000 in 2013, not $100 like he said. The price was actually sub $500 for all of 2015, rather than $1000 like he said.
With that first error, everything he says is debunked, but then he makes the second error. I can't believe anyone is taking anything past that seriously, this post was entertainment but it can't for real because he didn't get any of the dates and prices right. When the price doesn't even come close to $100k this year maybe people will finally stop bringing it up.
Seriously, the Time Traveler is all a big joke and of course just to entertain all of us for free. Now, I guess, we can expect that soon an alien can be bringing up its own prediction too of where bitcoin will be months or even years from now. Though I have no problem with many varied and many times wild predictions as they add more color and excitement to the industry, sometimes it can really get irritating and sometimes boring. Ok, I am predicting that bitcoin will be $50,550.95 before we enter 2020.
