I hope that 2017 is going to be the year of the Bitcoin because 2016 has not done much for us because most of time the price has been stable.
If this is going to be also the case in 2017 then it is going to be another boring year for Bitcoin.
It is very hard to know what is going to happen to Bitcoin, but we should just be patient and we could get rewarded. And I definitely agree with you, 2016 was definitely not the year of Bitcoin, with the price dropping at the start.
