Bitcoin predicted to hit $ 100,000

Moris Beracha.- 

The beginning of 2018 was not successful for Bitcoin, after surpassing the meteoric value of $18,000 per token in December. In January, things changed when the price of the digital currency reflected a decrease and stop growing, sinking below $ 11,000. However, Kay Van-Petersen, the fintech specialist who predicted the bitcoin’s rally at the start of 2017, said the cryptocurrency could hit $ 100,000 in 2018.
Despite the abrupt fall, the analyst's statements did not go unnoticed. Van-Petersen said that bitcoin could hit between $ 50,000 and $ 100,000, in 2018, reported La Nación de Argentina.
"First off, you could argue we have had a proper correction in bitcoin, it has had a 50% pull back at one point, which is healthy. But we have still not seen the full effect of the future contracts," Van-Petersen told the US network CNBC. To reach the $ 100,000, bitcoin would need to rally over 700%.
Also, the analyst said that ethereum, which today is worth ten times less than bitcoin, although its market capitalization has accounted 50%, will have a superior performance. "Ehereum came after bitcoin; it has a more unified leadership than bitcoin. They seem to be a bit further along the way in regards to forming the solution to scaling issues," he said.

Cryptocurrency Universe Expands Far Beyond Bitcoin

The code base is increasing and improving every day as computer science graduates from top schools jump on board. By Aaron Brown A sort of “cryptobrawl” broke out last month at the Milken Institute Global Conference between economist Nouriel Roubini and panel participants more optimistic about the future of cryptocurrency technologies. I had the opportunity to participate in a partial rematch at Battle of the Quants, where Roubini was just as negative and DMS Governance's John D’Agostino presented a moderate defense. All of the heat concerns the border of crypto and traditional finance, but much of the important stuff is happening far from the border. For example, one of Roubini's claims is that advances in financial technology by existing financial institutions and startups are delivering on many of the promises of crypto-enthusiasts, and these will continue to transform financial markets. That’s true. However, many of those advances were spurred by the threat of ...

The numbers: Small businesses turned more optimistic about sales and profits in the first month of 2020, but they are still struggling to find qualified workers, according to a closely followed survey. The National Federation of Independent Business said its index of small-business optimism rebounded from a small dip in at the end of last year, rising to 104.3 points in January from 102.7 in December. Business owners were more confident that sales would continue to rise and help support higher profits, the NFIB said. What happened: The net percent of owners who expect higher inflation-adjusted sales in the months ahead rose by 7 points to 23%. By and large, business owners were nonplussed by the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. A gauge that measures uncertainty was basically unchanged. The biggest worry of small businesses continues to be a shortage of skilled employees available for hire. A quarter of owners say it’s their No. 1 problem — more than taxes or re...
