Are you now starting to doubt those predictions who are saying that bitcoin will reach $30,000 by the end of the year? There's more to come for this year and we're just half of it and we are starting to get into 3rd quarter and if there will be no action seen on that quarter, there is still the last hope which is the last quarter for this year. We are in part of the history where bitcoin has fall that much and if you do believe those predictions, there's nothing wrong with it as I do believe about $25,000-$30,000 by the end.
Many people are talking about $25k - $30k in the end of 2018. But I think it's too quick for the dump-time of the market. It often takes 1 year to dump, and 1 year later to recovery, then a new pumping round start. So the end of 2018 should be $4k, then 2019 for recovery (maybe the price will be around $5k - $6k). In the end of 2020, BTC should be higher than $60k.
We do want high price to come back and we get used to the price during the ATH but now it is starting to become hard. This dump has been taking so hard and it's taking too long but it also teaches the new comers that crypto/bitcoin isn't for the weak handlers. If they are only thinking that they can become rich from day one to day 10, crypto isn't for them. They have to take the advantage during the dip and sell if they got profit. With your road map of recovery, 2019 for $5,000 - $6,000? seriously?
