In his opinion, the price will reach $ 11 500 by the middle of 2018. "For several weeks our forecast was neutral, since the price of Bitcoin at that time (about $ 7,400) exceeded our estimates. Two weeks ago, Bitcoin fell to $ 5 600 and rebounded, setting a new high. This drop to $ 5 600 cleared the market from investors who quickly got rid of the crypto currency, and we do not see the need to be cautious ... We recommend buying Bitcoins at current levels. "

The creation of Bitcoin's forks with copying of all existing balances containing "gift" coins for all Bitcoin owners is undoubtedly a trend of recent months. In fact, why invest time and money in development or marketing, if it is so simple to attract a great many people who will not refuse to get something for nothing? First, a successful Bitcoin Cash, then a dubious Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin Silver, which in a few days slid down almost to zero. Now another copy of Bitcoin - Super Bitcoin (SBTC), follows them. The SBTC network plans to appear on block 498888 (around mid-December), and the owners of the original Bitcoin will receive the same SBTC as BTC's "absolutely free" - you just need to get a wallet. According to the official website, SBTC scales the block size to 8 megabytes, and will use smart contracts and Lightning network.
At the Bittrex cryptocurrency Exchange, pairs of trades with Bitcoin Gold started, as well as the input and output of coins.

However, on it, as on other sites, only the balances accrued after the hardforks, and the input and output are still not working.
