This question was first asked by Bitcoin.com, but I think it will be good to through this open to all here;
Will Bitcoins rise continue after record-setting 2017?
"Bitcoins record-setting year is well-documented in the media. But with BTC pushing $6,500 price levels and $109.4 billion in market capitalization, whats in store for the worlds most popular cryptocurrency?
Famous investors Ray Dalio and Warren Buffett are warning of a bitcoin bubble. But other Wall Street analysts see bitcoin perhaps reaching $10,000 or even $25,000 by next year. BTC dipped to $3,200 in mid-September and has since rallied to over $6,500. Heavy trading (of nearly 300,000 daily transactions) can lead to volatility. But investors are also weary of fiat currencies that lose value over the long-term. As an asset, fiat money almost always devalues.

Do you think Bitcoin will go over $10,000 in early 2018?
I think Bitcoin will be already able to have a market value of 10000$ at the end of this year especially if the hardfork in November will be as successful as the recent one last August. It is believed that the segwit2x will make the market value of Bitcoin to go skyrocket just like what happened before. So I think it will break this barrier at the end of December.
