Perhaps Bitcoin and puff, but he can resist the fall and become legalized. This is especially likely in the event that in 2018, the cryptocurrency will be added to the price, says Roger McNamie, an investor in technology. BITCOIN SHOULD NOT TURN AROUND Bitcoin "is still a very small market in the context of a larger financial world, but it had a very good year. We already dealt with speculative obsession, "said the founder of the venture company Elevation Partners on Thursday on a CNBC transfer called" Fast Money ". "If the mania lasts long enough, it begins to feed itself. After the collapse, the legal industry will remain. " But in order to gain legitimacy, Bitcoin needs to hold on to hearing enough time and not to let go of investors' attention, McNamy believes, one of the early contributors to Facebook. "... there are people who want to invest the sums of dollars that are enough to turn things like Bitcoin into a long-term part of the financial market," McNamy said, comparing the situation with the dotcom bubble. The latter sent America into a recession, but then a large industry revived from it. SURVIVE ANOTHER YEAR There is another reason why it is important to overcome 2018. As McNamy suggests, Bitcoin is still too new for investors to have an understanding of what role he can play in the financial markets in the future. But volatility in 2018 can clarify these things. "There will necessarily be those biggest fluctuations - up and, presumably, down. And you know, the place where everything will cease ... will say a lot about the role of Bitcoin in the long term. " "Anyway, I do not think this will be the end of the story," McNamy added. Some experts have already made their predictions on the fate of Bitcoin for 2018, and they are very different. Julian Hosp said of the price of $ 60,000, the author of the "theory of the black swan" - that BTC cannot be properly shorted, and the forex strategist believes that in the near future, it is not worth buying a cryptocurrency.
