I agree with you @tysler. There were experts who were saying it may reach $50k and $25k but that just looks like a fantasy and not real it now being mid -September and the rate is not even $7k. Looking at the broader picture I feel that by the end of 2018 it would be a big boon if it reaches as you said even between $8.5k to $10k. The saturation of investors the fuds and the massive frequency of scammers has killed the pep and spirit of Bitcoin and it is now like a flattened beer. Thanks for sharing your views with which I 100% agree to.
