For the previous days of bitcoin performances I would gladly say that $3000 can be reached within next year of 2018 but not this year, because price will be struggling with the price fluctuations in the market systems. Well no impossible thing for a bigger price value if this significant increasing will really continue just like the previous days ever recorded of btc history on price value currently we are now at the range of $1200-1300; and price continually shows rising trend on graph monitoring.
