In a year, the price of Bitcoin grew more than 28 times, before falling 60% in price, this event caused much discussion about whether the market is in a bubble or not.

Before we can be sure we're in a bubble, we need to look at Bitcoin's history.
Bitcoin started 2011 at a price of 30 cents (US $ 0.30), rose to a dollar around February, rising to $ 10 in June and tripling to $ 30 in less than a week.

The "bubble" burst a few days later, on June 11, lowering the price to $ 15 (a 50% drop, seems familiar?), Bitcoin rose again to $ 20 before dropping to $ 5. is currently the largest "bubble" of Bitcoin.

Considering your explanation then we could assume that a $20K December 2017 price would or could depreciate to a quarter of its high which is about $5K so that means the price of Bitcoin at present may go down further and could settle at $5K before it takes off again to a new high.

Even Warren Buffet believes that Bitcoin price would reach the sky and fall to the ground but after reaching 20K last December, why didn't it hit the ground?

Do you believe that Bitcoin is just a Bubble?

I really don't know what happens to bitcoin. How i pray that it will go back to 20k. It would really be of great blessing.

One has to see the Bitcoin beyond speculation.  The trading of virtual currencies is made possible by the blockchain technology, and the application of the technology in many industries such as finance, stock trading, manufacturing, governance etc will be more important in sustaining the price of crypto currency.  The technology is still at the very nascent stage and its application in other field in the future depends very much on the distribution of the technology.  We have witnessed the concentration of internet in the hand of few conglomerates, which has wiped out the promises that the advent of internet could increase the transparency and power of the people.  This new technology ( block chain) should not be usurped by the big companies again, and if that happens, the distributed and autonomous network could replace many products offered by the intermediaries now, and one of them is replacing fiat money with virtual currency.
