Meanwhile, cryptocurrency experts believe that the first digital coin will recover to $8,000 area by December 1, the finder.com survey shows. According to the median estimates, BTC/USD will gain 29% in November and jump to $16,000 by the end of 2019, which implies over 160% growth in one year time.

Joerg Molt, the co-founder of co-founder at Satoshi School, is the most optimistic forecaster as he expects that Bitcoin will grow to $15,000 by December 1, 2018, amid American tax season.

“On November 15th, taxation begins. People run in BTC like last year and will sell off in mid-January to get the cut,” he commented.

Fred Schebesta, CEO and co-founder of finder.com and HiveEx.com was the only to predict the Bitcoin price decrease to $5,800.
