Bitcoin to 10k USD Before End of The Year?

in bitcoin •  7 years ago  (edited)

So many good things happening its really hard to list so i will go with just few.

I have wanted to write another post but it disappeared, now actually on base Steemit.com i cant post anything so using @busy.org for this.

1 MIllions USD per BTC

Mark Yusko the guy who predicted OIL dump says BTC will be worth 1 million USD.

BTC to 25k USD

FundStrat Global Advisor co-founder Tom Lee predicts 25k USD per BTC

Worth watching

Zimbabwe at 85% premium

Remember how India or Korea was 1000USD above other markets and they got to fix it? Now Zimbabwe is.

Yes this is dollars.

According to Bloomberg, banks are now rationing dollars to as little as $20 a day per client, regardless of the amount reflected in the underlying account. Even then, clients cannot guarantee notes will not run out and people are resorting to sleeping overnight outside banks to ensure they get in at opening time the next day.

Markets

BitFinex rocks it as usual. Interesting to see ZEN coin raise which is another anon coins (i have spoken that anon coins will raise many times and gave lists of some)

I don't want to play devil's advocate (I have a vested interest in seeing Bitcoin continue to go up and up) but the idea of a million dollar bitcoin would mean that, if I did my math correct, the market cap would be $21 trillion for a single coin. To think that bitcoin could be worth 3x the value of gold today is hard to fathom. I'm not saying it can't happen but it's hard to fathom something wouldn't happen to stop that. I would expect something else within the cryptosphere to have changed fundamentally. BUT I could see crypto having a total market cap of 21 trillion in the distance future. In what coins and what way exactly, who knows?? :)

Definitely agreeing with 10k bitcoin by end of the year. If we get there by Dec 31st, drinks on me!! ;)

totally agree also it could just mean that USDs buying power dies.. and 1 can of coke will cost 200 USD :)

It is not about how high BTC could go, but how low USD could go...


LOL and so isnt it Obvious that it is better to hold bitcoin rather than Dollars? Dollars go down while bitcoin goes up!

This is so true. I try to explain to people that the Dollar is on the way out as being the world reserve currency. It's funny to see people look at me like I'm crazy or call me un-American because this statement. It still shocks me how naive people are and that they don't study history.

Yep, they realy have no clue whats so ever, like this politician:

(he almost made me cry :D:D:D)

Exactly. Price targets are silly without timeframes. Once we get off this planet 3x the value of Earth gold will be trivial.

haha, you are using the right words @jac4b, so that means that people like that isnt much into cryto will not have the chance to getin

It is always good to see the volume of money that each exchange muenve before sending your bitcoins. so do not lose it.

Bitcoin is just getting started. :)

Bitcoin has way more use cases than gold, so in case of mass adoption this should be perfectly possible

I kind of disagree it has more use cases than gold. Just in electronics gold is widely used. Here I share this small read for some gold use cases: https://www.sbcgold.com/blog/top-6-common-uses-for-gold/

Ok, use cases where more money is involved

LOL Gold Gold is not money bro, its never going to perform like bitcoin! never! gold is just some old ancient thing that dinosaurs use... why waste your time with gold? Maybe governments should be holding gold but not us.... we cant afford not to buy bitcoin!

and its easy to use and reuse compared to gold, and many outlets are begining to accept bitcoin

I dont understand why people are agreeing with you.... hahah what? $21 trillion for a single coin? what? noooo $1 million dollar bitcoin means that we will have 21 trillion dollar marketcap! and so what? That is SMALL! 21 trillion is Nothing! the World has quadrillions of dollars in wealth! There is definitely much more than 21 trillion in just fiat paper physical cash in the world! And quadrillions in digital dollars euros yuan yen etc...
Bitcin IS the best money system and keeps your money safe it keeps your money valuable and no other system is as strong and dependable... people who cry about hacking etc are just children who cannot take responsibility for their own money, if you have a lot of btc you need a hardware wallet, if you have a lot you need multiple wallets so if you do get hacked you dont loose everything..... its a shame so many of us have this entitlement attitude... we have to do things for ourselves and this crypto currency system called bitcoin is so much better than paper money OR gold that it will continue to rise in value because the people who HAVE it KNOW its valuable!

Its a worldwide decentralized ledger and its perfect when it comes to MONEY, cryptography and math is the best system for storing value! to think that bitcoin cannot go to $1 million dollars is just naive! please dont underestimate it!

I will upvote your comment as a sign of good will, here is 10 cent 80% Upvote :D For a name like Blockchain bella you should have a more open mind and bigger imagination!

Bitcoin is bigger than you or me or even everyone on steemit! Bitcoin is bigger than any one person and you cannot understand it as just one human.. you need to step back and see the bigger picture and understand how the world really world... money USED to all be imaginary but it is not imaginary anymore! it is tangible, and if you cant see that its tangible you already lost! the tangible part of your bitcoin is your private key! the math IS tangible! money doesnt need to be "Physical" we have been using paper and credit cards for a long time and it BUILT the modern technological world we live in! GOLD did NOT build this world hahahah gold is NOT money, its gold! Money is bitcoin! money is fungible! Gold can be freaking counterfeit hahah you gonna test every gold bar you get? bitcoin doesnt need chemical testing like gold, those people who think gold should be money are pathetic! its crazy! You cant deny that the modern world and everything weve built in the last 50 years or so has all been from fiat and credit cards and it can now transition to bitcoin and we will be able to avoid the big fiat inevitable crash! we dont need to go back in time and use a gold standard! We all just need to get into using bitcoin! The whole idea of using an agreed upon money system already works and using bitcoin you get to avoid inflation!

Ok Im getting too excited but I just don't get why people don't accept that Bitcoin went from $10 billion to $100 billion this year and it will go from $100 billion to $1 trillion (another 10x) this year! and then the next year it can go from $1 trillion to TEn trillion and by 2020 it will go from, $10 trillion to $100 trillion! It will go OVER $1 million per bitcoin!

But guess WHAT! The $1 million dollars wont BUY you as much! the dollar wont be worth as much!!!!!

Hey! Thanks so much for the upvote. Just finished reading and I love your passion and don't worry I'm just as passionate as you!

Just for clarification when I said "21 trillion for a single coin" I meant 21 trillion market cap for Bitcoin alone meaning not in combination with any other crypto currency. Just that one type of currency- bitcoin. So my apologies if that was confusing. Right now the crypto market as a whole hovers around 150 Billion (and yes bitcoin makes up 2/3rd of the entire market cap) and continues to go up. This is all great news! And I do think we are just at the beginning of something that will revolutionize how we transact in a number of different industries both internally and externally. And that is so exciting to me. Imagine a world where our security is decentralized, where Equifax hack can't happen because our identity is saved on a digital ledger that is immutable and can't be hacked. That's exciting to me!

My thoughts on bitcoin:

Bitcoin was the first currency and the inception of blockchain and because of that I think it isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Now the case can be made that we will go to one trillion and I wouldn't even refute that. I hope that we do! I own bitcoin but when we think of it as a currency for the majority of people we can't think of bitcoin the way it is today. Currently we don't have a standard backing world income except the USD. The reason I compared gold to bitcoin is because gold is an asset
a way of storing money and many people do. Bitcoin is really an uncertainty at the moment. It could become a currency or it could become an asset or it could be used in a way we haven't seen yet. I think an understanding of what bitcoin is and will become would affect how it grows and how people (and nations) see it and also back it. I can see a serious case made for bitcoin being used as an asset in developing countries and we are already beginning to see that now. Places where the government is too corrupt at the moment (Venezuela, Zimbabwe, etc...) and that will continue to increase the market cap.

But in developed nations I don't see that being the case unless the government decides to back it. The majority of Americans hardly know what bitcoin is let alone how to invest in it and when you start discussing wallets and private keys you've lost them. The majority of American find bitcoin far too risky and confusing to invest in. Something would have to change fundamentally with bitcoin for it to surge into the multitrillions especially if you're making the argument bitcoin will continue to exponentially increase.

The other issue I have with bitcoin is the current blockchain. its slow compared to other currencies and requires a lot of energy to do transactions. The blockchain has gotten so large at just $100 billion that the machines running it need millions of dollars to pay for the energy needed to put the transaction on the chain. That means as bitcoin goes up so will the fees. And we are only at $100 billion. Imagine if that was 21 trillion? If bitcoin continues under the blockchain It has today then it would take weeks for one transaction to go through and it would cost thousands of dollars in fees. Now of course we are looking into forking to change this but even that is hitting resistance and sometimes for good reason. Since there is no central say in bitcoin there has to be a consensus. Segwit 2x would help with these issues but they also have problems of their own as the consensus within the community doesn't seem to support the way in which they want to fork bitcoin.

My point is we need to look at this from all sides. I think we need a better idea of how bitcoin will be adopted by the masses and how we can make its blockchain more efficient. Until we see that I think 21 trillion is a bit too optimistic for me. Hope thus gives you some clarity on my previous comment and once again thanks so much. I really love the enthusiasm and trust me I believe and love my bitcoin ❤️

the world is begining to embrace cryptos so everybody will want a bitcoin, as the first choice the the others, it could happen but thats a long way to go, the 10000 by the end of the year is feasible , that am sure might happen

you are very right @blockchainbella,

One million might be a stretch but I agree that we will be seeing 10k by 2018! That figure has even been thrown out in a Forbes article already, I linked to it in my recent post if you're interested in giving it a read.

Completely agree with your thoughts !

This is so true. I try to explain to people that the Dollar is on the way out as being the world reserve currency. It's funny to see people look at me like I'm crazy or call me un-American because this statement. It still shocks me how naive people are and that they don't study history.

stay away from all of those people. I have realized that when people STILl want to refuse to respect and buy bitcoin that they are not worth your time! You have to ignore people who want to just ignore a 10X increase in price in less than a year. Bitcoin was $600 at beginning of this year and is now $6000 and NO stock market investment has given that sort of return! we need to ONLY be around other bitcoin people! We have to realize that the world is going to use bitcoin wether they like it or not... there will be Apps out there which will use crypto and blockchain and bitcoin a stheir underlying system of transactions and people will be ending up using those apps... like @zappl and aps like that will end up getting a lot of users using steem blokchain without even knowing what steem is! but we will get the users all using our blockchain and big corporate deals etc with big time apps .... cant wait for steemit to really really start spreading out and growing! it is bound to happen.... steem will be better than bitcoin as an investment steem will get to $1000 or more

i find these predictions rather meaningless without a timeframe. You could say that a banana will be worth a million dollars and in 200 years you are likely to be correct! Is he saying a million dollars per btc in the next 12 months? Or

Well if Crypto gets a larger marketshare than fiat currencies, then fiat won't be worth much more.

If their's a lot of inflation me might see 1 million btc. But that would require Zimbabwean scenarios.

When you see that bitcoin is booming and understand that the supply is limited you will realize........

THE ONLY WAY IS UP!!

I agree it should go up, but think it would do better without all this forking.

Agree, it would be better if it would not split so much into many coins, and keep itself the value of these other Bitcoins. Still, the hard forks promoted it for a while so they have their ups and downs.

I see that it's booming. But unfortunately it's booming because of it's booming.

Not at all, BTC has been undervalued for years because the media tried to avoid the subject, published negative things about it or called the real potential 'blockchain' (what is bullshit). After breaking the ATH of 2014 the way to the real value started, so in my opinion we are just in the beginning of a bull run. The news except from the scaling FUD is as good as only positieve, bitcoin is really getting to main adoption. Regulation, property sales, wallstreet interest, adoption by even nation states (didn't dare to dream about that a few years ago). ect

Or, there could be people investing other promising coins so it may not be bitcoin forever as it does not tend to be improved by hard forks (as the case of ether) but divided into other altcoins. Yet I still agree with you that it will just go up

When do you realise that there's is no technological superiority of BTC compared to modern coins?

Many coins serve different purposes. Also, support and faith in the crypto market are important. With so much of the population having 0 knowledge of any crypto, the market is more dependent upon gaining notoriety than it is proving which is top coin. I say let's all ride the bitcoin train and when crypto gains enough marketshare the best tech will surface.

First mover advantage, network effect and infrastructure are way more important. Superior features can be build in in the form of 2nd layers

Ill have to learn more about that investor, and see what i could do to mimic investing.

If just I didn't sell BTC last year, of course I got rich rightnow...Oh my Godness...😥😪😫

Buy now or you will be saying the same thing in 6 months! (ok maybe buy tomorrow or later this week as Bitcoin is at an all time high today)

The only thing that is sure 100%, is that Bitcoin now is really cheap.

Since Bitcoin serves as the gold standard in the crypto world, over the long term the only way is up! Like @kingscrown advised in an earlier post, buy with money you can afford and hold for as long as you can. Metcalf's law states: The value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of users of the system. The more people that start adopting the platform the more demand it will create for it thus increasing the underlying currency utility value. In the short term, if only 5% of the current investment shifts from Gold to crypto (which is a rather conservative estimate), we are looking at an average price of $25K per Bitcoin...Who knows, if adaptation rates continue to increase or we have a liquidity spike, we may see $50-$75k in the not too distant future! So spread the word and get as many of your networks engaged as possible, it's a win-win for everyone!

It is a great call for $10K by 2017. My personal view BTC has lost some momentum for this year. When all the FORK saga is settled, it will start up-trending, we may see $10K for 2018, very likely. @kingscrown please a prediction article for STEEM too :)

$10k is very achievable target for Bitcoin.

Upvoted and resteemed and agreed btc could go up 20x from here to $1M, especially w/o the alts. all the new coins in the mix someday but probably not until dollar crash then what does it matter?

Wow, that will be awesome @kingscrown

Now is the perfect time to buy bitcoin and hold it til end of the year. We will earn huge if this will be realized.

No one will disregard bitcoin now much more if it will soar high as much as 10k $ per coin this end of the year. Its high time ti invest in it and reap the prize soon.

Even china cant stop the proliferation of bitcoin and i think they will started to change their mind about the crypto currencies. When they banned the ICO's, its like banning also indirectly bitcoin thats why last month it dropped as low as 3k $ per coin. And now it gained its ground and it will skyrocket as high as 10k $ before this year ends... hopefully

That China situation was just funny:
China: Lets ban BTC.
Crypto-Community: Ah, who gives a crap about what China thinks, lets pump BTC once more.

Enough said,No doubt,all the way in
your Bitcoin Gif :D

i have come to realize that the more countries ban it the more popular it becomes, russia and china were the first to ban it but it made people curious about it and the more they wanted to know the more they bought it, by banning it they are popularizing it, the revolution is here and it cant be stopped

1 Mill BTC is not gonna happen. I'm long on BTC but that is just too high. 200k is highest it could ever go in my opinion.

I hope so! I am expecting a correction down to around 3000 level at some point though

I agree. Right after the Bitcoin Gold hard fork I'm guessing then it will go up again just before Segwit2x.

@kingscrown A very Positive Bitcoin posting. Thank You for this and also thank you for the ANON Coins list. I agree with you on all of your points.

I believe 10,000 is totally possible. Imagine if there was any validity to the rumor that Amazon is going to start accepting bitcoin, the price would probably hit 50,000 the first day of the news release. Anyway it is just a matter of time till it happens.

Agreed! I'll be listening for the announcement in their Q3 earnings call next week

Wouldn't this be market manipulation. The Amazon management could basically buy some serious amount of BTC. Knowing that BTC would skyrocket is a large company would go for it.

Yeah, 10k by the end of the year seems very likely. I'd say it will go up to 25k by 2020. What do you guys think?

According to statistics Bitcoin year end target will be an average of 7 thousand dollars

Okk my friends?
Thank You so much

As bullish as I am on Bitcoin, it is impossible to forecast any future price. These predictions are just throw away comments that anyone could say. Dont get me wrong I would love for bitcoin to go as high as possible just like anyone else, but its impossible to value it

Bitcoin as gold , 40K baby!

That Bitcoin would be higher then gold. :O

BTC will reach 10000 by the end of the year. Happy investing !!!

Great man! Thanks for information

Have you checkout SmartCash yet?

Possible, already market studies found it could reach $8K by November.

Great post thank u for sharing love it

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Post fork btc will settle around 4300 - 4600 usd the alt's would boom up

@kingscrown thanks for te info

THANKS FOR INFO

Hopefully it will...I had already invest in bitcoin..Goodluck!

We have less than 3 months to go before the end of 2017, lots of unforeseen events could happen. A few pundits had already predicted each BTC hitting $10K by the end of this year, the possibility is definitely there. Let see!

long term as the world goes crypto bitcoin will be the king of cryptos and it might hit that high considering their will be demand for it but scarce, so hold on to your bitcoins, a million as Mark Yusko say maybe on the higher side but wont be surprised

@kingscrown

Headed to Cryptolands and beyond!!

Wishing you much continued success!!!

🎀@theprettysoul🎀

Daily Learn some new from your post. Love to read it.

Congrats you see them. :) nice post.. you living your life to the fullest. i want to see more of your post. done following

It is entirely possible, and without a doubt going to happen soon if not by the end of the year. If the entire crypto market cap was applied to just bitcoin it would already be there.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I think there will be another rival between the anon coins, seperate from other cryptocurrencies.

Read my post early this week . My take is Bitcoin will hit $100k .in the short term $10k is happening . Guys this ain't advice .. just analysis ..

There are many of people here on the Steem block-chain. Who write these analysis charts.

It's a great thing for us all if bitcoin Price goes up,with that we all have more dough in our wallet, thou the price keep going up and down pendulumly but it doesn't mean I am seeing goodness in bitcoin by the end of this year... 1btc -10,000USD..

$20 note a day......speechless

I am here for the long-term run.
When you read not one, but several financial experts predicting BTC will go to the moon between 5-10 years from now It means something.
Gold is the old school. Crypto is the new one.
99,9% of the world didn't even think BTC would reach $1 just 5 years ago.
Wait, hold and see.

plz upvote ,my post

I agree that the only way for BTC to grow is up, but how many years will that take? If you told someone in 1950 that the stock market would hit 23,000, they would think you were crazy! Some of us might not have that long on this planet!

very nice i need bitcoin up

Exactly. Price targets are silly without timeframes. Once we get off this planet 3x the value of Earth gold will be trivial.

kawan steemit upvote aku ya dan Follow aku ya please.....

I think Bitcoin will end the year below 5500 / Ether 400$ +

Very informative,thanks for sharing

Thanks for sharing such a handy information @kingscrown. You are Rock.

10K has been the prediction since the beginning of the year.
I'd see it doesn't seem impossible, maybe somewhere next year.

No doubt

I think that when it finally gains wide enough acceptance, like say, PAYPAL, the value will grow ridiculously high. Everybody has varied predictions, but they are all up up and away!!

Let's hope! I got in recently but would love to see my value go up :)

I agree I think it will happen

Interesting to see bitcoin rise in value tremendously, but what would be most interesting is experiencing its universal acceptance as a means of exchange in the market place. The freedom most sought for in global trade / money market would be within reach, a world free from the domination and manipulation of market forces by one economic entity or block.

Good post

Thanks for the great and very interesting content

The gains of bitcoin are simply amazing. I was reading a book published just a few months ago about crypto currency and there was a section stating that bitcoin could reach $5k by the end of 2018....it has already surpassed that by leaps and bounds. Crazy!

The insanity continues.

Well I better buy some now :D

It sounds amazing, I can remember when people began to speak about this and I was one who didn't believe on this but now I see the price and I am really susprised.

i don't think sow , bitcoin will reach this price by the month of march 2018 , but by the end of the year the maximum he could reach is 8500 usd

Zimbabwe Bitcoin Trading at $10,000 is stunning

This 6000 thing made everybody in party mode I guess...

Any people who have their ideas on why all of this would NOT happen, or should we all just buy (when the moment is good), to become sleeping millionaires?

i like your post ... follow me and upvote my post

vai akta post kote 200$+ korlen ki kore amake aktu bolben

just hit 6k but I think it will sell off after the fork - so will be interesting to see if it can rally again to hit 10k before the end of the year.

I like the overall optimism and high hopes, but I agree with many of the others here in that it is far more likely to hit lower bounds like 10k than rocket up to 1mil. That said though, Bitcoin has had a continued trend of higher lows and higher highs time and time again when it dips and recovers, so we will just have to see.

Apparently China is looking to bring it back in some capacity and if Amazon, Alibaba etc start accepting BTC, only SKY is the limit!

Bitcoin at a million dollars would be a real thing of beauty. Imagine what the Chinese, Russians and every other bitcoin banning state would have to say at that time.

Hope for the best....

I like what you are saying about BitCoin but I think that valuation is too high. Bitcoin has some high projections but I don’t think as high as 10K. My predictions is that it’s going to go up to 8k by the end of the year. A big coin we all have to look at is XRP (ripple) because that will make a major push for the year of 2018.

Why not. It can

Bitcoin will most definitely hit $1 million USD within the next 10 years. I myself have 1 Bitcoin locked away for then! However, it will probably surpass that in my opinion...

Taking into account that the amount of world population that uses crypto the true growth potential is overwhelming. I do not know if it will reach a million dollars for Bitcoin but of course it isn't impossible.
Bitcoin's growth will be inversely proportional to the decline in confidence in Fiat money markets and financial institutions.

Wonder what will happen after the fork

According to statistics Bitcoin year end target will be an average of 7 thousand dollars

I think bitcoin will settle at ~5000 after segwit2x fork. People are greedy. Everyone is try to grab the opportunity to double the money without taking much risk so they are converting alt coins to bitcoin and once dust settles after the fork, people are going to go back to the alt coins where chance of making fortune is more.
