Its pretty much a good deal to sale your bitcoin guys once it reach 3k usd for 1 bitcoin, Dont waste the chance to get much money on this.

For a while I was saying that I think we'll see a peak between $4k and $5k before the market crashes, but now I'm not so sure. We still might, but I would not be surprised if it goes back to $3k like you are saying, and then reverses to a bearish trend. That would form a pretty classic double-top pattern.

people say the same thing on nearly every price level!
it was $1000 at some point if you believe it and that point is not even ancient history yet, it was the start of this year!

and the same is true about all the other prices you come up with as a "good time to sell" price. they are all cheap prices until we reach real mass adoption and a high price near the 10K levels.

We cannot exactly make a price prediction to happen within a time frame, because it always has shown a good price increase at unexpected time. As it went close to $3000 and fallen back, sure this might happens​before the ongoing month end or need to hold on for a little more time.

Almost there, but don't sell all your bitcoins, if the price doesn't drop you won't make profit from it. Sell a part of your bitcoins only and keep the rest. The price is reaching to 3000$ slowly and when it happens slowly there are less chances to have a big drop after.

If you bought at 500 dollars then any price above that is a good enough price to sell, you will obtain your profits, but I do not think it is a good idea to sell your bitcoin by putting and arbitrary limit, it is better to let the market do it is thing and sell after a big bubble.

We are seeing higher lows lately. This time was around $2500, last time below $2000

I can't believe the next bull attack will make the price increase by less than $400

Why? Everyone here is quite used to be told "don't waste your time" when it comes to something like Bitcoin. Why is your new(bie) insight something we should take differently than other criticism?


And this would be a bad thing for you? I think a pull back would be great...it doesn't change the long term prospects of this project.


This is the key observation. The support that the market has waiting in the wings is demonstrated when we quick rebound (not all the way, but a response) after a significant correction...as we have this week. Nearly touched $3000, dropped back to $2600 and then a rebound into the $2750 range. That's nearly halfway back to the high point!

This is very telling. This support means everything.

At least end of this months, we will see btc price increasing.. i believe that... now is down and up time.. everybody will sell for profit

And why are you telling us this? Maybe you're just here to try get us to sell our coins, so you can load up for cheap ::)

With Australia legalizing bitcoin officially starting 1st July i think that there is a lot of renewed optimism in bitcoin. This pretty much coincides with the date you say is going to be when bitcoin reaches its highest peak. Bitcoin is going to rise, definitely to 3k easily after the adjustment took place. When the support levels are so strong there is just no reason why it's not going to happen. But you're saying to dump as soon as we hit 3k? Man that's probably the worst advice i've ever heard.

First of all, dumping @ 3k means that you'd only be making 200 usd per coin. Why waste your time and risk your money? Just hold onto your fiat if you think it's going to crash.

Secondly, UASF is coming and if it's successful, bitcoin will rise even further as the transaction fees are lowered. All reasons for bitcoin to exceed 3k and stay there.

Why is it a good deal? If it hits 3k USD then it will likely accelerate even further as a whole number has been broken and taht is psychologically important for traders. There is a lot of emotions that is invelved with trading bitcoins. Based on my knowledge/previous experience we have always seen an acceleration of a trend, no matter bearish or bullish, once a round number has been reached.

Bitcoin is indeed priced very reasonable right now, but i don't think that selling it at 3000 will give you the best value for money. Personally i'm going for the long term. Selling for the short term then buying back in at a lower price makes sense on paper but doesn't in practice since the spread and fees will just eat away all teh profits you make. Long term bitcoin has infinite potential, and is a great hedge for fiats.

Prices are erratic and tend to change rapidly. See the current movement we will surely be optimistic there will be an increase again.
though some time it appeared that bitcoin rates seem to last long in the price of 2800USD.

I think it would be a pretty dumb idea to sell all your Bitcoin when the price reaches 3 thousand dollars. I believe that the price will continue to rise and if you only sell at 3000 dollars, you would be losing out on a lot of profit.

First of all I highly doubt that right now bitcoin will reach 3k as the price of ethereum had a huge pump recently. Besides that the pump was without a dump and the price doesn't seem to stop growing. It just took a little break, thus I think putting your money into ethereum right now might be a better choice of making money. Also eth has a lot of potential on overtaking bitcoins market cap during the flippening what would be terrible for the bitcoin price.

Well here you are talking about a long run hold. Of course the adoption is small at the moment and the price will be way bigger in a few years of bitcoin. But most of the people want to get rich quick and the unfortunate truth is that bitcoin cannot make you rich anymore over night. After 10 years I wouldn't be surprised if it reaches the said 10k dollars each, but most of the people don't have enough will to hold it for that long. It's better to do your research  on cryptos and which one has the highest potential to get pumped. Then throw what you can afford losing into that coin and potentially triple your money in a few days.

Well obviously, though I doubt that many people back then thought that the price was going to increase six times. I wouldn't be surprised if many regular people bought in at 1.5/2k price. If only there was a way to tell whether the price would grow or not. There was a decent chance that the price would come back down from 500 back to 300 again so you can never know.

And why the price would go up again from 3k dollars? These are just wild speculations and I can say that the price will be dumped back to 1k which is possible if bitcoin gets overtaken by ethereum. Everything is possible and if you want sure profits with bitcoin then you have to hold in a long run. Otherwise you won't make any money out of it as it's just like gambling. Get over it

No, it will  hit 3k before 25 June 8)

Well I also think the Bitcoin will maintain its bullish stance but I guess it is due to the ETF decision that this price go down.  I believe some whale wanted to capitalize on this news and grow his stash more.  A news is a news and if successful'y used to manipulate the market, manipulator will gain a tremendous profit on the next change of trend.  We seen it several times in Bitcoin market and it is not new to see this again.

As the price of bitcoin right now is at the range of $2,500 usd per 1 bitcoin and if you will analise the chart it really impossible to reach the price of 3k usd in just 3 weeks by those holders who will sell or buy bitcoin but if they will keep holdin and keep buying maybe demand will be increase and the volume of bitcoin will be increase too.

It's hard to predict, op's 3 week $3k and you just did predicted that $3k will be reached almost 2 weeks from now.

But well see I just want to see the price of bitcoin at the ceiling again. And for sure after this correction.

The price will increase and that will make the price to be possible at the prediction of each speculator here.

No one knows what will happen after  3 weeks,but theres only 2 thing that will happen either bitcoin will pass 3000$ and up or bitcoin will go down below 2000$. Theres no guarantee that btc will hit above 3000$ that is why some holders are selling thier bitcoins right now.

Bitcoin have became so unpredictable now. Here people are not able to predict the price for next day. 3 weeks is a long time. I hope bitcoin will continue to grow. Many people are showing interest in bitcoin and this may leads to reasonable appreciate in price.

Well I think that it would really reach 3k USD per bitcoin,
But I think I can't hold my coin cause I would need to cash out some to support my expenses .

Well... if Bitcoin is capable of reaching $3,000 per coin without any support form the big bankers and investors, then what prevents it from reaching $10,000 or even $100,000 per coin? I am not being over-optimistic, but right now we are having only around 10 million users. Imagine what will happen to the demand, if the user base increases to 100 million or 250 million.

Well it is really unpredictable and even when I started earning bitcoin, it really does the unbelievable things and right now the price is at $2628.98 and last week it reaches $2900 I think there is a resistance in this part and OP is trying to lure us in a panic, and if UASF is successful? that means there is another thing that might happen if it is not successful? I am really worried on the August 1 date that may occur the change in bitcoin history but let's just hope it is not what I am thinking of.

I assume that this speculation is based on the Australia's mark on calendar. The formal acceptance of Bitcoin on July.

A clever prediction on my part and it is highly probable. But saying that "it is the best time to sell.. blah blah blah" would cause a sudden crash on Bitcoin's price. And a good opportunity to some who want to buy bitcoin at a low price. This will just cause a panic selling so I would never recommend users to sell their coins immediately.

It is highly probable that Bitcoin will reach 3000 USD within your speculated range since Australia will accept Bitcoin starting on July this year. However, selling immediately after reaching a new all time high will just cause for the price to go down again. It is best to just hold your coins and watch the charts with lines going upward.  ::)

If this really happens with numbers up penetrate bitcoin $3000 in the near future it is extraordinary and the right moment to get advantage of the bitcoin you have save so far do not let this golden opportunity to you will make you rich in an impromptu moment

I have learned through my previous mistakes that it is never a good decision to follow the recommendations and financial advice so freely shared here, especially when there is no solid basis to justify that reasoning. It is true that selling at $3000 may seem tempting when you have purchased your coins at less than $1000, as you would ensure a good profit of at least 300%, but just as the bitcoin price has exceeded all expectations this year, nothing would prevent it from tripling its value again in the coming months, so I think there is more common sense and wisdom in keeping your coins rather than starting to spend them right now.

Exactly that is false. The fundamental mistake underlying this comment is the assumption that a rally can indefinitiy sustain itself, even northwards of 1,000,000,000,000,000 USD per BTC. That is of course nonsense: the price can only appreciate so far until selling pressure becomes too strong, and a correction takes place. There's also no guarantee appreciation continues towards inifinity. You however do have the guarantee it will stop at some point, and that point might as well already have been reached.

Bitcoin is losing dominance quickly, down from 85-90% market dominance to 38% or lower today. This happened in  the span of a few months. A position that was untouchable for years, but destroyed in a mere few months. Money keeps flowing into crypto, but other alternatives seem to be doing way better so far. ETH and XRP appreciated way more than BTC did this year, and that should give some food for though if you're unbiased and neutral enough to look into the tech of said alternatives, or other credible crypto alts, few as they are.

To get back at what you said in the end: common sense now is selling in my view, as Bitcoin at this point is a high risk, low reward investment if you continue to hold at this price level. Make your own decisions though, always.

I think we won't see 3000 USD after 3 weeks from now. Bitcoin has been on the steady upward trend this past months and I think a dump is bound to happen later on when that pump stops at some point. In a few weeks we might see price ranges below 2000 USD again but there is still the probability of bitcoin touching 3000 USD after 3 weeks but the chance of it happening is quite low.

Ï think people are too afraid of a hardfork in August and are afraid to hold Bitcoin in long term, so there is a lot of sell pressure.

If the situation resolves well in August, then the bull rise may keep going.

well bitcoin was never capable of making you rich overnight! and the rises although being big sometimes were never that big to go up like 1000% llike what altcoins do.
but the long term game is always a winner. price is rising at least 150% per year and nothing could stop it in the past 8 years apart from the one time Mtgox scam.
in any case it doesn't matter what some people do, there has to be someone selling so that we (who know the potential of bitcoin) can buy it cheap and make the profit. it is a cruel world that not everyone can win.

When you remember how last summer, in the year of 2016, the largest Bitkinex trading platform in Bitfinex was hacked, then you start worrying about what will happen this year. I'm sure that the price of Bitcoin attracts more and more hackers.

We have become so accustomed (and spoiled to a certain extent) to bitcoin breaking new highs but when the price starts to pull back, the FUD starts clouding our judgment which leads to premature or panic selling. That makes the price go even lower, which some smart investors consider as a good entry point for a new play. Talk about someone's loss and somebody else's gain.

who said bitfinex was hacked? that's right they said it. we don't know anything. they may have had some money problems looking for a way to buy more time. it certainly wouldn't be the first time.
and hackers have always been around. they never go anywhere. the money attracted them long ago.

I checked coinmarketcap.com and it looks like that bitcoin is not the only coin that is affected with this dumped. Most of the coins are in red tag so for sure it is now getting ready to be pump. I'll wait for 3 weeks and we'll see if bitcoin is going to reach again high @$3k and possibly gets higher.

Yes you are right that Bitcoin will reach $3,000 few weeks or months because the price of Bitcoin is going to increase and I am sure that it will reach $3,000 again, so we need to hold our Bitcoin for making some profit because when the price increases then if we sell Bitcoin at that time then it will be very profitable but if you need to convert your Bitcoin for some daily expenses then it depend on you but let me say that do not convert your all Bitcoin into fiat keep some of them through make some profit.

Why do you respect this issue just the possibility of yes or no, and do not give an example of how this can be done. Of course 3000 dollars for 3 weeks is not so much, but that's a lot of nemudenie.

Gamblers have always been part of the market in Bitcoin. It was like that back in 2013, and it's still like this today. It has to do with their lacking understanding of Bitcoin, as they only focus on the market itself. For them Bitcoin as technology, network, capabilities, etc, doesn't have any real value. It's just the gains that they are after. Just look at the threads that pop up after the price is correcting -> Why is the price down 15% today? -> can Bitcoin become worthless? -> I think Ethereum will take over Bitcoin because the price is going down -> I lost $100 today, shoud I sell? It's funny that the market is the only thing they care about, and yet they don't know anything about it. :D

For supporting your expenses you have to use your bitcoin because we are here to earn money are only for to support out expenses but if anyone or you can hold your coins then you have to hold because now the price is down and if you will wait for a few weeks then you will see the price of bitcoin at more than $3000 and you will be able to get more money from your bitcoins.

This is the problem of other people. When the price is increasing "$3,000 is achievable in just few days", when the price is decreasing "$3,000 target looks like will take time". Only using the price movement as a basis is not the real thing in speculating bitcoin price.

We have to consider those things that really gives impact on the bitcoin price and not just using the current movement as a based. There are lots of factors why price moves on large or small margin. But one thing is for sure, bitcoin will reached even more than $3,000.

What exchange are you guys looking at?  I just saw another person claim that most of the coins were down.  Bitcoin is down, but that is not the statement being made.  Looking at 5 exchanges, other than Bitcoin the picture is the usually, around a 50/50 mix of up and down prices.

Hmm but I'm seeing the current price within the range of $2600-$2700 so I think bitcoin is not down. It has rebound already and we may experienced a slow phase again to get to $3000. One thing makes me worry though, is that once we peak $3000, maybe another dip will be next because that $3000 is very tempting to sell your bitcoin for profit.

Yes it is a good deal but who knows the price is going to reach $3K. It may take more than two months as well; we can’t say that the price this time will drop after it cross $3000 limit. In fact we don’t even know what will be the price of bitcoin in the next couple of hours? If the price reached $3000 in the mentioned time, this will be considered a great success of bitcoin.

Every user has got difference in opinion on the selling of bitcoin. Some could have targeted the $3000 to be the selling point. I personally doesn't have any target price to sell, planned to hold to the maximum possible and sell only during the times of emergency. For those who have been thinking of bitcoin $3000 I would like to suggest that the price will go further high than the targeted selling price point.

It's a good deal reaching 3000 usd after 3weeks. There's no harm in expecting and be so positive towards that speculations. In every speculation? Weather it's good or bad, just absord it in a good way no matter what just be optimistic. There's no harm in there. If we reach that? Thanks but if we don't reach that amount, be thankful too.

I think with a lot of FUD going around, its hard to be optimistic. However, personally I still think that 3000$ could be reached. Currently the price is 2500$-2600$ so maybe its really possible to touch it. We just have to stay calm because right now the market seems to be very slow. I hope it will pick up in the next couple of days or so.

This was created June 14, 2017 and we are now on June 19, 2017 so 5 days had pass and the current price is $5,564. I think that is very possible for the upcoming weeks we will see bitcoin's price rise. I'm trying to do my best now to save bitcoin like cutting my expenses to save more bitcoin as mentioned by op.

Im expecting BTC to reach 3000$ this month. I just bought myself back in. 85% bitcoin, 15% ethereum.  ;D

What if the price of bitcoin have a good rally after reaching $3000,i did sell off my coins when it touched $1000 and i made some money because it was having difficulty to cross that valuation for a long time and when the price really broke than barrier all of a sudden i never had any coins because i was expecting it go down once again but that rally took us over $2000 and i expect that will happen here too.

We are definite going to see bitcoin's price at $3,000 but I don't know if it will love it's stay there. Because just like what happened, we saw the price at $2,900 but it didn't take any longer after that the price went back again. I like your attitude and you are very right there, we need to be optimistic on the speculation of bitcoins price.

Yes, the volatility of bitcoin price will hardly allow someone to portray a picture of bitcoin price with the time periods mentioned. We all know it very well that bitcoin price is too unpredictable that we cannot say what the next moment will happen to bitcoin. This is why it is considered the most risky investment.

I am not expecting any big rally in the coming months,there is a scaling debate and scaling proposal and i hope there will be some uncertainty from major investors to invest during these period and i do not expect any big rally.

The main reason for it is that now the 3k price of bitcoin has become a psychological hurdle and when ever it is nearing it their is a selling dump so if it crosses then we can see $4k very soon if not we can see the price going below $2k price also.

How about Australia embracing bitcoin in July 1. Do you think this is not enough to push the price to $3000. Like others have said, I think bitcoin will reached this price in the coming weeks or so. Segwit2x activation is slated in Aug 1. That is the date I'm most worried for, because we really don't know what impact it will bring to the ecosystem. But I think before that date we are going to touch $3000 again.

Reaching $3000 is not that unachievable. In my view the price will be growing higher and higher, but right now none could make a calculated prediction that when does the price increase takes place making things better.

Well its already around $2750 after a bit of volatility the last days. I think we are only a week at most away from a new all time high.

Bitcoin has been unpredictable since the beginning, who could have thought that those coins with almost no value now are valued at more than 2700, I have read some old threads were people were incredibly excited when bitcoin finally reached dollar parity.

I'm curious, why when the price reached $2900 and then drop again, it looks like prices are $3000 difficult to achieve in the near future, probably need at least 3 more months, after reaching $3000 the the next target is $5000.

Those round numbers are always a physiological barrier, since for some time the goals is not going to be reached and many traders will setup their bots to sell when close to that mark and then reaching that price becomes even harder, but at some point the demand is going to be there and we are going to surpass that price.
