My heart wants Bitcoin to go up again but I think 2018 is not the year for Bitcoin holders
Be positive mate I think in 2018 we will surely see bitcoin at highest price, because now gradually it has started to rise, more companies and more people are buying bitcoin at cheap price to hold for long, same as you I want to see bitcoin more famous, more high and more popular so that price will pump too high at the end of 2018; just hope for the best.
Realistically, I would say that 2018 is really a difficult and everyone is really struggling. I think for most Bitcoin holders, this is a big test and I don't know how long they(we) can hold on bitcoin and not get tempted to offload specially those who are holding when we bought bitcoin early 2017 when the price is still less than $1000. Although I'm sure most of them offload some of their stash during the height of the madness in December, there are still we chooses to hold still despite seeing no end at this bear market. But just like what you said, let's stay positive because historically, bitcoin had shown that it can bounce back again, so for holders, let continue to do so and really hope for the best up to the end of the year.
