Bitcoin has been growing by warriors for the last 10 years and I think it's silly to compare 2018 and 2019. You just have to be patient. Personally, I think that 2019 will be more productive for bitcoin and cryptocurrency in General.
Yes, we all hope that by 2019 there will be a positive change. Bitcoin users will get more and more and if it is observed, the growth that has occurred is quite significant. by considering this, I am personally very optimistic that the price of bitcoin will increase. This becomes a positive value because if it can be maintained for a longer period of time then we will be able to get a bright future for the world of digital currencies globally.
