Most of the predictions are saying 2019 will be the year of recovery.
it is possible to recover, but still we have to be very patient, if we want the price to exceed more than $20,000 so we have to wait the next two years, in my opinion as time goes by, governments and banks have begun to accept bitcoin as a means of payment, but for this we have to have a small volatility, I think it is much better that the price is between $3700 and $4000 and it is little volatile and many merchants, governments and banks accept bitcoin instead we have a price of $25000 but very volatile and no one accepted as payment method
