lets do it, speculation about this.
what is good and bad news about this year? for example - new forks, ETF s, SEC.
If bitcoin managed to reach another all-time high this year then it will be better than 2017 but I doubt if bitcoin is already ripe for another bullrun this year. ETF launch is already delayed several times but I believe it will not stop the bitcoin from going up further. Any fork of bitcoin this year may become insignificat unless it is a major one.
