My opinion is we won't hit it before the future fork. And we won't reach it for at least few months after. After fork when people will change their BTC's into alts, price will drop - and we will start from the beggining. So be prepared for "bitcoin is a bubble and it finally popped" in few weeks. What's more I see BTC hitting 10k$ in q1/2 2018, but that's a clear prediction.
