Expert forecasts of the bitcoin rate in 2019
According to a sociological survey conducted in Russia on the eve of 2018, 49% of Russians dreamed of a New Year's gift in the form of 1 BTC. Unsurprisingly, given the cost of bitcoin at that time - 1 BTC was almost $ 20,000 in price. Interestingly, in mid-2017, no one even could not imagine that the oldest crypto currency would be worth so much - the most daring experts and analysts gave a "cue ball" from the strength of 3 000-5 000 dollars. Those who expected $ 7,000 or more were frankly ridiculed and said that he needed to be re-qualified for weather forecasting
But life is unpredictable, and already in December bitkoin asked all the heat when he began to grow dramatically. We are more than sure that many happy owners of BTC were going crazy about calculating their fortune, others were biting their elbows and frankly hating the whole world - especially those who foolishly sold their bitcoins, even when they cost a pittance. Well, okay, that was, it was. What's next? How much will bitcoin cost in 2019? What do analysts and experts say this time? Go! What to expect from the course of bitcoin in 2019 In order to do some adequate forecasting for 2019, it is necessary to understand the key factors affecting the exchange rates of the future and the BTC in particular.
Mining. It's no secret that in many respects the success of the crypto currency depends on the guys in the old shabby t-shirts and household slippers with plush elephants that day and night give their heart and mind to the soulless "iron". Yes, we are talking about miners - about those home Bill Gates who agree to lay the house / father's car and his soul in exchange for a farm from quality Asikov - modern computers for the production of a cue ball. Accordingly, the more crypto currency is in demand among the miners, the more it will grow.
Rumors / news. Recall, when Bitcoin Cash was added to the Coinbase platform, it grew by more than 4 times. In just a couple of hours. Strangely enough, but the rumors about the addition of a cue ball to this or that site (although it can still be added, without it, and nowhere else will be dedicated to water), they solve a lot. As well as the news about some regular forks of BTC. Positive news gives growth rate bitcoin, negative - negative.
Government sanctions. For those who are in the tank - back in 2014-2015, the authorities of the European Union and the US (and even China) ironically responded to the crypto-currencies - they say, who will really buy it, what other digital currencies! At the end of 2017, when the cue ball did everything - the government, experts, critics and all other representatives of the "cream" of society, the situation suddenly changed - the authorities of different countries began to apply sanctions to the miners, traders, stock exchanges ... Suddenly, tax. Suddenly, trading platforms were forced to move to more loyal countries (a number of Chinese stock exchanges moved to Hong Kong, for example), and so on. Of course, all this movement can not but affect the cost of Bitcoin.
Here are the main factors that really affect the value of the crypto currency. Based on what was happening in the last months of 2017-2018, we can assume that in 2019 the Bitcoin currency will only continue to grow (the interest of the richest Western investors only has a positive effect on the exchange rate), but it is unlikely to be carried out abruptly and without compromise . Rather, the growth of the cue ball in 2019 will go systematically, slowly, but steadily, with minor corrections.
Optimistic forecasts of experts According to analysts Saxo Bank Kay Van-Petersen and Jacob Pouncey, the rate of bitcoin in 2019 will reach $ 60,000. At the same time, experts add that the value of the crypto currency will gradually rise until December 2019, but in the winter the situation will suddenly change, and the BTC is in for a sharp collapse. Moreover, they openly declare that as a result, in December 2019, the rate will be only $ 1,000. It is interesting, is not it? According to Evgeny Gryantiantov, one of the founders of the Freed block project, there are reasons to believe that by the end of 2019, 1 military-technical cooperation will be valued above $ 100,000. Of course, it would be just wonderful, but is there any real basis for such happiness?
According to Dmitry Matsuk, bitcoin in 2019 will reach the threshold of 40 000 dollars, at the very beginning of the year. At the same time, the optimistic expert Vladimir Smerkis, a partner and co-founder of the crypto fund The Token Fund believes that the price for military-technical cooperation will continue to grow. True, how much - the expert did not specify. Svetlana Ivanova, representative of IC Prime Capital, too, was filled with optimism. According to her, the growth rate of the cue ball will reach 50,000-60,000 dollars in 2019. Moreover, the expert sincerely believes that with a favorable scenario, the price will exceed even $ 100,000. Her opinion is shared by analyst Yuri Pripachkin.
Pessimistic views
Probably only the laziest news site did not publish the news about Warren Buffett's statement, which contemptuously remarked that crypto currency is nothing more than a soap bubble inflated to incredible proportions. This opinion is shared not only by the famous American investor, but also by a number of other pessimist experts. In their opinion, the funds invested in bitcoins are speculative, and this can not be taken seriously. The most gloomy analysts predict that in 2019 bitcoin will drop to 1000-3000 dollars.
In particular, this is the opinion of Professor Jeffrey Sachs. In his opinion, in 2018-2019 the world will see the complete collapse of the crypto-currency market. He argues that such a forecast is based on the irrational nature of the movements of quotations. The market has formed an incredible bubble, which sooner or later should burst. His forecast also takes into account the factor of anonymity and independence from the policies of central banks of different countries. This will somehow entail strict sanctions of government organizations, which will lead to the end of the BTC's crypto-currency system. This is the forecast of bitcoin for 2019 was made by the professor.
Analysis of opinions and forecast of the course
Well, we have already examined the views. So what is the future of bitcoin? The forecast of the team of our site: in 2019 the bitcoin rate will reach unprecedented heights and will beat its past highs by at least 2 times. If we recall that predicted the opinions of experts in 2016-2017, it becomes clear that no one could guess the true flight of the BTC. And this despite the fact that the analysts had good reasons and facts for their forecasts. Despite all the fundamental analysis of the graphs. Despite the fact that there were no real prerequisites for a price of $ 20,000, it was still achieved.
In all respects, there is reason to believe that in 2019 the maximum rate of bitcoins will exceed $ 100,000, while the minimum can drop to $ 5,000. Yes, this is not a joke. Do not forget about the high volatility of this market, the huge influence of throws, fakes and manipulations.
