The uncertainty and general possible mayhem of the fork was the only thing standing in the way of $10,000 BTC by end of 2017. Now with the fork removed I think we are guaranteed to hit it in December.
How high do you think it'll go before end of year? If Bitcoin keeps its average pace this year it'll hit $11,000 roughly on the last day of the year.
I am also setting the target for 2017 at $10,000 per Bitcoin. That is already enough for me. It seems a perfect and reasonable speculation already. If in any case that it will fall short of grabbing the $10,000 resistance, for sure it would be playing around $9,500 more or less. And finally in the earliest days of the year 2018, the $10,000 will finally be hit. But because of the upcoming SegWit2x this December, I think it is going to be an easy $10,000.
