13/7/2015 – Bitcoin price on the rise

Weekly Bitcoin price prediction
Regarding the future, the price is expected to drop over the next few days unless something dramatic happens, which is highly unlikely. If we analyze the prediction chart from Coinbase, we can see that the price is set to hover around the $270 mark.
According to Bitstamp, the price is predicted to dive even more and it can get as low as 260$.
