bitcoin price is decreasing. its  time to buy bitcoin.

Bitcoin has really dropped a lot since its peak at $2975, I guess everyone quickly sold out when it reached that high, now its dropping way too much for 3 days already, might even continue to drop.

Buy some now, and buy even more if it continues to crash. Go Bitcoin Go! Lets see what happens after one week.... :)

I hope it drops a bit more. atleast at 2000$. time to stock up indeed!

We usually see how many speculators are on-board with Bitcoin when a dump like this happens. It grows with every big price spike... people

read in the media about record high prices and then they start buying. When there is the slightest dump, people start to panic and they sell in

droves. This has a bit of a trigger effect... I freak out every time, because I know I am going to buy a bunch of cheap coins and then make a

ton of money, when it bounce back.  ;D ;D ;D

As i've heard before, when bitcoin rises too much, there is a tendency that it would fall down, but im pretty sure that after one week it would rise again and now is the time to buy bitcoin.

Yes, it's time to buy. The price has dropped or better to,say it's been corrected but that probably will not take very long and the price will be on the way up again.
Just don't allow to get to panic selling like in similar situation some uses do. Pumps and dumps are normal Bitcoin phases, don't forget that.

Agreed. Although buying regularly, every week or month can be good to average your purchase price. I suppose the other option is just saving some fiat over that time period and waiting for the extreme drops like today to buy in bulk with whatever one has available.

I am agree with you that the price of bitcoin is going to down is not for permanently its falling that is temporary ,so that time is good to buy bitcoin or invest your money in bitcoin because this opportunity will not become again and now you do not sell your bitcoin and buy more and more because in coming day or after one week the price of bitcoin will starting to goes increases.

Never rush like that. This is not urgent and you can just wait to decide which point is a buy point. Never randomly buy bitcoin saying "oh it dumped too much then buy."

maybe, but for me, i think i need to take a look and waited for more because if the price is not reach the bottom, then if we buy now, the price still getting down and if we are not strong enough to see this, we will cut loss and sell our bitcoin. but if we have much money, then we can split our buy into several part in order buy to trying rebuy when the price is still down.

Yes. If you are not owning Bitcoin, its the best time to have one.
No doubt, Bitcoin potential is unlimited. It gonna surge beyond everyone's expectations in next few months as it did in last one year. With increased interest among the countries, prices going to rise for sure.
For instance, in India, Zebpay owner reported that they were unable to lower their exchange prices as per international prices as Indian traders are not ready to sell at lowers thus Bitcoin prices in India are still around $2700-2800

Member when bitcoin was less than a dollar? I member

Seriously though, I'm baffled by the recent price hike and I would say that I'm worried about a bubble and the price popping, but we've been here before and I honestly believe Bitcoin will continue to rise impressively as it's always done. Unless.... Maybe our luck is running out :o If it dips below $2,000 it'll probably go all the way back down to $1,650ish really soon after that and stabilize for some months.

Buy some now. If it decreases further, buy some more!

To decide whether it is a good time to buy bitcoin or not, you need to analyze the reasons behind this crash. If it is just a correction due to profit-booking, then you can purchase at current levels. But if the crash is due to the block size issue or due to the delays in transactions, then you need to think twice.

if only i have some money i would want to buy bitcoins for my future use, i think that it is now the good time to buy bitcoins, and wait until it grows bigger, i thing this month it will decreases but by the next months it will continues to grow its value and it is the perfect time to sell our bitcoins.

It is certainly impossible to determine bitcoin prices correctly. There are thousands of buyers/sellers each entering market at different prices thus having different priorities. So what we see as a price everyday is just combo of actions of all these people. Therefore, it is impossible to say whether prices going to fall more or rise.
But yes bitcoin past has shown enough conclusive proofs to believe that buying presently will not let you cry much in future and prices will surely go up in long run.

I think it may stick around here or even go lower, the price, alongside other alts was in a huge bubble that is due to collapse at some point. You cant expect the buyers and sellers to be able to keep it around that price forever. This was kinda expected by a good amount of people so I wouldn't even be surprised in what happened today.Though, if you really think BTC has a good chance of bouncing back up I think ya should consider buying it right now, It's fallen like $800 since the ATH.

I may convert my coinbase USD to Bitcoin right now.

Which is funny, because isn't it due to such large delays in the transactions? I've seen some people complaining about the large fees and high delays, and I know that's always been a complaint since the dawn of man, but I do believe it has been a bigger concern recently... Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like we need to think twice. :D

That is what the best to do right now, you can make big profit by buying more bitcoin and saved it for your future do not hesitate just buy if you have some money. This is a good opportunity to more bitcoin users if they missed to earn before.

It's a common thing when the price is at the moon,most people will dump to make profit,then the price will drop
And the price will go up overtime and reach the new peak,then people will dump again
An endless cycle of economic

Yes. Similar to last May's crashing. But that crashed was short live only and a lot of investors started to buy bitcoins again and its pushed the price to almost $3000. But now, the price is dipping again. I don't know if people are cashing in because it has briefly touched $3000 or they are moving out of bitcoins and shifting to ETH.

I think this kind of movement is normal to bitcoin though there is a possibility that the current dip is people moving out of Bitcoin temporarily to move in the Ethereum hype but I do believe that they will get back after the ETH hype is over.   There is also some possibility that a huge holder is wanting to add more coins to stash in a cheaper way, shaking weak hands.

Yes. Yes it is.

Bitcoin's price is so low now and buying now is a good timing. Buying on the dips surely will give bigger benefits on the future. Though we do not know how low Bitcoin will be but buying in now is not a bad decision at all. If only I have spare money, I will definitely buy now but since I do not have, I am a spectator for the moment and will just earn some BTC.

Yes that's right. I have noticed that tendency as well. I use to think this is bitcoins nature and there is no reason for panic and words like "bitcoin is dying".

yes that right, people always getting panic on a thing that they have been expecting that will never goes down, we need to think that sometimes we can lose some and sometimes we can win some,thats life, and therefore sometimes bitcoin will goes up and down just wait for it for the perfect moment then sell it as much as you want.

I think bitcoin will not fall that far.

If you want to buy it buy now.
😀😀😀

Smart traders know this quote: After all, it is emotions that move the markets...

If you look at the historical price of bitcoin and extrapolate on a log scale (removing the outliers) the floor should be around $1800-$1900.

SegWit BIP148 might force the chart to have to realign a bit, but unless something catastrophic happens to the protocol, it will climb again.

LT;DR: If you bought high, just hold. Same as the last 100 "crashes"

This dump is not strange, the strange thing was when the price reached $3000 with the threat of a hard fork around the corner. I would not buy a Bitcoin now until the situation becomes clearer

Nooooo ;) Just because we are going down doesn't mean that we are going to stop going down. Buying in when you think you see the floor, sometimes is a little premature (ESP with BTC, it's just too damned volatile all the time). It's sometimes better to sacrifice a little profit, and wait til the reversal trend is a bit more definite. Id take a guaranteed 20 percent gain over a maybe 40 percent gain any day ;)

This has become a tradition because when bitcoin values decline, of the many people buy, then when bitcoin begins to rise there is also a tradition to resell it. As a routine activity, please buy.

what do you think on the following explanation ?  --> https://youtu.be/0RITE0783Wc (https://youtu.be/0RITE0783Wc)

For several weeks We observe very active fluctuations in the Bitcoin market, and everything can be seen that within a few hours the price That rises that increases 200 dollars or even 300 dollars. It's unclear why it was not so actively happens, But I hope that this is not critical.

It is like trading. There are people who sells in panic and there are people who buy in dips. The people who sells in panic are the losers and the ones who buy in dips are the winners. I think it is time to buy any amount of bitcoin anyone of us can afford too. I don't think the price will fall further more as there no reason for such happening.

I think it is a very common in Bitcoin that the price of Bitcoin decreasing and increasing and it is not a strange that now the price of Bitcoin become decreasing and we always sees that after a dump the price of Bitcoin starts increasing and I think it is the time that we need to buy bitcoin now because after that the price of Bitcoin will going to increase and I think it will be out of buying.

i think in present time when the price of bitcoin is trading below 2200$ it is the best time to invest, because that is just a temporary dump and very soon the price of bitcoin is going to start increasing again and i do not think that the price of bitcoin will stay here for more than a week, therefore i think it is a golden opportunity to buy bitcoin right now and do not waste a single minute. because i do not think that we will find such opportunity again.

Just stay Calm.. bitcoin is going nowhere..

After 1AUG.. we will gonna see a huge spike of $5000

Yes you are right that time is very best to buying bitcoin and you will make more profit, if for those who has lose this chance to buy bitcoin so they have a good chance to buy bitcoin and hold for long time it will make a big profit, and more, some export says that the price of bitcoin will goes after one or two week to 3000$ , so now buy more bitcoin .

Actually i have placed my buy order at 2000 dollars, i've been waiting for this moment to buy more bitcoins and i don't wanna lose this chance, i regret deeply when the price was really cheap and i didn't buy much at that time. Anyway seems like the price is going up rapidly, it's about 2300+ dollars at this point i think it will be back to 2800 $ again. People will make profit untill 50% if they buy at 2k dollars well hoping the price will touch 3k dollars at the end of this month.

I think the two main reason for this crash are :

• The introduction of new bill titled “Combating Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing, and Counterfeiting Act of 2017" by the congress.

• Exchanges such as BTC-E and bitfinex getting heavily ddosed this week.

So I dont think the price drop is a correction at all. Anyways, it looks like the perfect time to buy more of bitcoin as well as ethereum because it looks like even it has been affected indirectly by the price drop of bitcoin.

We could see that rally if we have a smooth transition when the fork happens and with the debate it is highly unlikely that is going to happen and i would be cautious to think that we could see a rally after August,we lost over $17 billion in valuation in the past one week and all the coins are in red,and some of the major exchanges like Bitfinex and BTC-e was under ddos attack this past week,so over all a bad week after hitting $3000.

You got it figured out. Nothing's changed, so there's no need to panic. If you aren't a trader and didn't buy at the peak, keep holding. Bitcoin is as strong as it was a week or two weeks ago. I've just watched this and many people, including this guy, know how it works and are buying instead of selling with the rest of the scared sheep.

Some rumors about hardfork and government regulations on bitcoin is causing panic sell, im sure it will recover back.

yes there is nothing such serious which can effect the price of bitcoin, it is just a routine selling and when they will over then  the price of bitcoin will start increasing but currently i do not think that the price of bitcoin is going to decreasing anymore. i think bitcoin is giving a good opportunity to those who have already missed an opportunity to buy bitcoin. it think they should buy bitcoin right now and make their position more stronger.

Hold your horses no fork on the horizon. Jihancoin will never happen.

I'm holding and would advise you to hold as well. Those who were watching BTC for a couple years know that corrections are always shallow. More money is coming than going every year. Next year we'll be testing $4000.

Here is another chance for the people to buy coins who were wishing to buy some when the price was high. I think after this downfall the price will soon going to shoot up high.

Bitcoin down the price and it turns out coin alternatives also come down the price anyway. This creates anxiety for bitcoin investors as well as alternative coins such as etherium. The cause of the decline of bitcoin is caused by too few numbers of bitcoin users because they prefer alternative coins. And the choice is not one but varied.

Today i am feeling good that this time even on dump their are users who are not panic and are ready to buy back and taking this dump as an opportunity to buy in low.

Yes, it is correction of price before increasing again, we will see bitcoins price will be increasing after the activation segwit on bitcoins, it is like when segwit be activated on litecoin the price was increased. I think it will happen in bitcoins too because the segwit is innovations on digital currencies, that is good for invest right now.

Buy now while the price is not breaking the wall of $2,400 - $2,500 cos' for the next days to come we'll see the price up again. Just buy at the dip do the same thing again and the cycle goes on when the price starts to be at the peak again. How many of you did bought while it's on the dip and sold it when the price at $2,700?

Yeah definitely time to buy some while it is still at a low price,
I think we will see a pump after a couple of weeks or maybe a month.

rumours won't beat the fact that bitcoin are a promising investment , a promising future banking system , a next generation money . people too early to judge , where actually the bitcoin journey still far away from finished/established. the current situation especially in the last 2 days believed as market correction , i expect around 10% to 15% only but well we have corrected more than 20% now.

You pointed out the right thing what we need to do right now. As a long time BTC holder i have nothing to do with the current bitcoin price,because i expected btc to reach $10k within next 2 years.
But yeah,you can make money by doing trade with bitcoin,buy now and hold is the only suggestion.

I've heard the UASF will be splitting the chain of bitcoin. Is it mean if the jihan coin will become true in the future? We know that if the UASF is not 100% safe way to fix the scaling problem of bitcoin. The bitcoin core can't 100% agree about the combination of SegWit and 2MB hardforks. This panic sells caused by the bankers are trying to give a bullshit statement about bitcoin.  And bitcoin already added to the Bill.

Price did decrease and this is were you get to see whales buy all the bitcoins from panic sellers and before you know  it bitcoin price is up by 100 - 200 dollars in no time. Buy bitcoins while you can

Hard fork? where did that come from? It is just a mere network split, there will be no hardfork that will happen. and what is the government regulations are you saying? They price are dumping because there are many investors that want to assure their money and sold their coins, some of them though are panicking about the network split.

Yeah it is a great time to buy some bitcoin now because the drop is only for a smaller time and all of those people who will buy will get the profit within a few days because it is obvious that the price will recover to its high level in a few coming days.

Yes it is the time to buy now some bitcoins at this lower price. A number of people were complaining that they missed the right time to buy bitcoins at around $2000 so the price now is near to that digit any person who want to buy can buy now and will get the profit which they expect.

It seems bitcoin down will not be too deep anymore, I think it's common thing that can be seen it seems this opportunity to buy

1500 $ I prefer ...
It does not matter then go up another 2400 $
Its time to buy dollars and exchange with Bitcoin. ;D

The decline in bitcoin prices is profit taking from speculators, this is fair because bitcoin prices are high enough, and they will buy back bitcoin if bitcoin prices are cheap and stable

IMO, the best practice during times like these is patience.  If you already have a hefty amount of money in Bitcoin, then ride out the storm and see where the price levels out.  I would wait until the market decides on a price without insane fluctuation and stays that way for at least a week.

When the markets are going crazy like it has been, that leaves people vulnerable to getting into emotional trading... which is really dangerous, and will probably end up with you making a decision you regret latter on.

Yes, the price of bitcoin is getting down. But i think that it is temporary. The price of bitcoin will increase again very soon. It is high time to buy and stock some bitcoin.

When Bitcoin price falls so do the rest of the altcoins, good time to buy for all of Crypto.

yes this the advantage of the low price of bitcoin that when the price of bitcoin becomes cheap then everyone is able to buy bitcoin but when the price of bitcoin becomes very high then it becomes very expensive and very difficult for those who want to invest their money in bitcoin or want to buy bitcoin but the disadvantage of low price of bitcoin is that, those hold their bitcoin they lose some of their money.

Do not too greedy to buy altcoin not all will increase its price just make some research about altcoin then make sure that altcoin you buy has potential to increase its value. Much better to invest for the altcoin which are ico comes.

https://image.prntscr.com/image/-zal_ZAfSF2OYMgXs1kRsg.png

not looking good.. I think people are panic because of all this talk of bitmain and there "crazy" ideas!

We could destroy bitcoin if we are not careful...

currently bitcoin is really providing good opportunity to invest your money. i think is the best time for those people who have missed the previous opportunity to buy bitcoin,  think they should try to invest their money in bitcoin right now and secure their position more and more.

I agree with your point because I saw that a few hours ago the price of bitcoin reached to a much lower value and again now the price of bitcoin is increasing. That often bring a very nice opportunity to earn a big money within a day because we see that the price recovered a high volume within a day.

No-one who isn't part of the special trading brackets is ever going to buy the perfect dip and those same people will never, or rarely, sell at the very peak of value when it comes to a lot of instances. Those who have invested in the past are likely to walk away with money regardless of what happens with the market, but there are a lot of people who might end up having a hard time if they invest while we're still being very volatile within the $2k ranges. Once/if the market breaks $3k it'll likely have more security for those who invested in the $2k range.

Din't get panic when the bitcoin is falling down everything happens for a reason and yes bitcoin truely decreasing but there will be a change or it will be become more expensive ny the month of august of course you need to ttake advantage to but bitcoin to start saving and start for trading to grow them.

Price has indeed dropped from the all-time high of 3000. But I think it may be a correction. Like you said time to buy Bitcoin. Perhaps this is the stage in which Bitcoin's price levels out. Maybe we may see a period of continued growth, now.

bitcoin is just decreasing for temporary so its really a good time to buy bitcoin in huge amount i also plan that buying bitcoin in huge amount it will be very profitable for me in the future and i am sure that bitcoin price will again rise to high value in coming few weeks because bitcoin adoption/demand increasing so i hope price will rise sooner.

For the most daily traders as well investors this is the moment to buy more bitcoins, all know and saw bitcoin already at 2900 dollars, soo we will achieve those value again, even had lost some boost be sure bitcoin looks like wont go lower then 2000 dollars anymore, soo its time to invest.

Possible right shoulder of a reverse head shoulders pattern here. I picked some up on GDAX. Bubble has not burst yet. We shall see if we rebound.. if the right shoulder completes and we move up, it should be a nice swing trade and more, since the bubble has not burst yet, it could move significantly higher if we complete the chart formation.

Looking good so far.. up $30.  If we break above approx $2415 on GDAX, the sky is potentially the limit, and the current downturn may be over.  If not, I lost a bit of money but gained more experience in swing trading and reading charts. :p

The price dropping in bitcoin is not a surprise cause it's been this way from the very beginning after all this crypto currency is volatile but still it maintained it's $2433 value from it's $2900 something peak that proves that bitcoin has matured from volatility with the support it has gain in this recent years, i guess the price will pump once again. This would be the greatest time to buy lots of bitcoin while the price is still low, if you've been in bitcoin for to long you'll know that all your assets is safe and dont worry about your investment because this one of the situation in bitcoin that it will dip and pump. If only i have lots of cash i would surely invest it all in bitcoin.

The price of Bitcoin goes up and down, if someone dumps a portion of his coin then they have a small chance where they could make a few bucks if the price gets a little lower. Considering the transaction cost and Bitcoin Exchange fees there is a bunch of people that don’t calculate that and lose a bunch of money doing that though.

Bitcoin is down, when it buys and sells the bitcoin transaction you have. Be careful to buy and sell it because it is very painful if the timing is not right.  :'(

I wouldn’t worry so much about since the price of Bitcoin has a fast recovery rate. I like to get a bunch of charts from the history of the price trend and it shows that the people that invested in Bitcoin years ago made a bunch of money if they tried to hold it some.

that is right, we need to search and take a look in the market and see what is going on in the sell order and buy order and we need to see with the history trade too. i think the price is getting down to deep is because people is panic when they see the price is suddenly down to far and they are afraid and worried that bitcoin will be dropped in price. but i believe that bitcoin will recover the price and soon will be back into the price before although we don't know when the price will be back.

Some bitcoin holders will panic with the decline in bitcoin prices that should not be necessary. Bitcoin price decline is a good moment to buy it  and we know the price of bitcoin by 2015 if compared to 2017 what percentage increase it's very profitable.

That is true, when there is a dump. crisis  it means there is an opportunity. A good opportunity to buy, since after the storm the sun is still shining and even brighter :) Same is true with trading and in bitcoin dumps, after this, bitcoin will regain its status and even grow more.

dump of price eventually leads to the people wanting to buy at a lower price to pump it back, after that another wave of rise will go on.


indeed unless there is at least one real alternative solution actually better than bitcoin protocol.

Yeah, bitcoin price is decreasing right now and i think i will going up soon. I'm sure many people will be ready for buying bitcoin again like the last time. When the times come bitcoin price will increase so high because people will buying bitcoin again.

Haha, I always remember Warren's words: "Be Fearful When Others Are Greedy and Greedy When Others Are Fearful". I ussually sell my Bitcoin when the price hit to good target and wait when it breakdown as past days, I will buy it again if the price try several times at strong support line and can't breakdown it! Final, take profit with new highest price :)

Exactly i agree, this is the right time to buy it. After many issues about bitcoin prices will increase to $3000 - $5000 at the end of the year or at the beginning of the year and some even say bitcoin price increases will happen in August, I do not know. Which I would be willing to buy bitcoin now for a profit in the near future. cheers

There's no need to be careful just because you are buying and selling bitcoin but what you need to do is to make sure that you have the final decision. Yes, you need to finalize if you really want to sell your bitcoins today but when it comes to buying, it will always the right time to buy bitcoin.

have to correct your grammar without manipulating your stance/definition. state if my grammar is wrong.
surely is. :P pricing will not continuously surge as less people will buy bitcoin in case, the cause of the price of the bitcoin has to drop for them. never buy at the daily top so you are safe to go long.

I buy bitcoin when I have money. I do not look at the price. My investments are long-term, so I know for sure that at the end of the term I will remain at a profit

Up nearly $200 from that right shoulder... nice swing trade. Just made 2 weeks pay overnight, should have been a lot more though as I chickened out and only invested about $12K. With that said a reverse head shoulders is a reversal pattern.. there's no reason it can't rebound back up above $2700 here. Beautiful looking reverse head shoulders pattern here. Of course it will only keep going up until it doesn't. Chart reading is far from an exact science. Looking forward to more swing trades in the future.

The reason the price goes down is normal market correction.. the liquidity provided by those bots which are programmed with a degree of technical analysis in mind was apparent as I was sitting watching them last night.  It's almost like a law of nature that nothing goes straight up, and everything goes in cycles, and everything ultimately corrects at some point.

You never know how much you can make of it. I used to look at it like that. "Sold for $100 more, I just made $1000 over the weekend, got all happy and took a couple days off to celebrate and have fun. While I was at it the price went up another $100, so that could have been $2000 had I decided to hold instead of being satisfied with half of it.

The biggest problem is to know that exact point.

Every time, When we see that Bitcoin price is going really high it comes back to its original state. After every bump there is a dump. So, It is just coming back to its original price.
My prediction is it will stop @2000$ around.
Who thinks China is behind this?

i thing the same, i bougth at 2150, now i wanna see a good price to sell.

China isnt a problem, they will do a history record buying gold this semester, the problem for them is cny, not btc

I think that China is very important for the price of bitcoin. And the whales that affect the price of bitcoin are in China. But I see that the price does not go down, but almost has recovered. And it makes me very happy

Yes, Chine is very very important in the crypto field especially in Bitcoin. The majority of Bitcoins is from China, Many people are using Bitcoins in china, If china wants the price of Bitcoin to come down it can make it happen if it want it up then it can rise the price.

We can really experience the effect of those rumors behind this bitcoin moments that is making bitcoin price really hard to skyrocket, but as of this moments of fluctuations getting lower price in the market buyer waited that. I know these panic holders will certainly buy if they've seen price climb higher again, they actually buy bitcoin and sell there's a sign of bigger price drop. We cannot stop this scenario of panic sells and it normally happens in a volatile currency.

China (pre PBOC regulations) was just toying with Bitcoin -- it was insane how much influence they had on the market. One Chinese fart was enough the initiate a well sized selloff. I am thankful for the sanctions that have been put in place by the PBOC. If that wasn't the case, we would still be in a situation where high frequency traders would basically keep squashing everything that came on their path.

Yes it's time to buy bitcoin when it decrease. It is an opportunity to all those who wants to invest, there are real time investors.
I wish btc somehow drop to $1000 and goes up again to the recent rate  ;D
Don't always take it as negative when btc drops, always look at the brighter side in everything.
In every fall there's a rise. Amen!  ;)

Bitcoin prices have increased again to $2.6 I think this is not the right time to buy it, but if you believe bitcoin prices will continue to increase, buy it now is a good choice.

I think you missed a 'k' there. Bitcoin prices are at $2.6k, not $2.6  :P
If you are investing small amounts for the long term, you can still get in at this point. If Bitcoin is really successful, it won't make a difference whether you got in at $2.6k or $2.4k.

We all hope prices will bump for a while.

Indeed! It's time to buy bitcoin when the price decreases. It's an opportunity to invest a huge money to afford many bitcoins. If the price gets down? There's nothing to be worry about it. It can be reversed! Actually, it's a good deal for some people who wants to purchased some

I think the dump is like a garbage being recycled, the people bought something and use it, after it becomes useful, they throw it away. Someone will be seeing it and use it again until they throw it away and be used again by another. That is how the dump works in bitcoin, when someone sold their bitcoin, other people will be using or saving it.

This works not only in bitcoin. At any time there are people who need to sell, but there are those who need to buy. But in the crypto currency, while the price of bitcoin is high, many people have a desire to sell. This leads to a price reduction

Some people think that it can go even further down. Personally, I would wait until August 1, before buying any coins. If a split happens, then the prices for both the chains will crash. No one can predict what will happen next. Perhaps one of the chains will emerge as the winner, and the exchange rate of that coin will rapidly shoot upwards.

The price has been decreasing gradually but at times the stabilty gain is occurring so price drop won't be continuing long. Soon we'll be experiencing a big price pumping that might take the price to $3000 or $3500 by the falling weeks. Till now it hasn't​ gone down to $2500 which is an positive growth.

A bit smarter for choosing the right moment. Buying with 50% of this capital is quite safe. Then sell it when the price is attractive. 8)

Today the price seems little increased and we're getting to cross $2500. The growth is taking place in a stable manner, but in the past the price increase was happening in big multiple and in a short falls to some extent and then insert again stabilty growth happens keeping the price high. Expect the same to happen before the month end.

People are just waiting to see what the UASF "threat" gives, I fully expect a quick surge once that threat comes and goes.

Of course the price of BTC will always change as it is what it supposed to be.
I will just  ride on the flow of the fluctuation of it alternatively save a few coins and spend when the price is unexpectedly high.

It seems to me that people exaggerate when they speak about August 1. I do not understand why all this excitement. After all, under any circumstances you can make a profit. Be ready to buy coins at a low price)

UASF what is it?
I just heard the term, can you explain a little understanding!

With that exaggerated thoughts about August , I see it people were just afraid of price of bitcoin to fall down. Knowing that speculations with negative ideas could really create greater confusion to investors that might made them decide to sell at this stage of price nowadays. I think that those bigger investors really wanted to take all the opportunity they will have if more people sells into panic, and certainly this will pump their holdings by that time price will climb up again. To give an advice for to all who holds bigger values of btc, well don't get panic this situation is avoidable and everything is within control fluctuatuons normally happens that's why price goes down and up many times.

When enlisting bitcoin does not suffer price drops because the growth is taking place in a stable, but in the past the price increases that occurred in some great and falls short for some levels and then enter again growing stabilty keep prices high. Expect the same thing to happen before the end of this year. I expect the bitcoin on the peak of glory at the end of this year. ;)

You must be living under a rock if all the ruckus about UASF has by-passed you.
UASF stands for User Activated Soft Fork. Google it.

I personally would like to buy for smaller price than it is now. However I think that price will go up and any profit is a good profit. I am earning and saving mine. Maybe I will make mistake by not buying but that is my choice.

Maybe you will wait until the price drops below $2000, right? I do not think it will happen in the near future, because I think the bitcoin price is now already can be says stable at $2000+ although fluctuations are still going on but the value is still fixed.

I also think that the price could not go below $2000. Bitcoin has the backing of Japan so it's hard to see the price going really hard in the future. And if ever it did, it can quickly recovered based on my observation. So for me, if you are going to wait for the price to drop then it will take you a while to grab some and stash it. You may have been missing opportunities to profit. But as you have said, its your choice mate. And we can only advise you. Still its your final decision that matters.

It's always good to get advice from people with different opinion and gather information from different sides. That could make me think again and reconsider my decision which is not final. Thank you guys.

Totally true when the price drops there are plenty of investors that are going to buy since it has a high potential,
And I think that will be the reason why it would pump up again since the demands would be high.
So I really think that it is a great time to invest in bitcoin or some other coins.

The price has actually increased if you see it was around $2200 and I'm pretty happy i had bought some at that price. Buying bitcoins now is surely a good idea but storing would take a long time to double instead what you can do is buy a few eth as eth will take less time to double than bitcoin.

that is right that some investors are waiting for the right time to invest money but i think that they should invest money in bitcoin rght now because i cannot see the price to fell down any more and after that it will start increasing again.

This time more investment could have come into bitcoin, but the august 1 has created a fear among the investors. This Keeps the price in a sustained manner without much forward or backward variation in the price of bitcoin. I think the next price jumping might happen only after 1st of august.

i dont know why it always had big dump since may or march nothing happen its just dump and dump , yeah sometimes its pumping but dont go abpve 2600 with segwit come mid august i hope price will increasing again since it will clean the blocks , just be positive if ya buy right now still made a decent profit tho

It can always happen the big dumps and I think it is just coincidental that most people would go dumping simultaneously, this is really outrageous when we are hoping that the price would go up, But I think most people are just feeling whether the price would go up or down because they are earning this way by dumping if the price is up and buying when it goes down, repeating process to accumulate much earnings.

It will always be a safe haven for us if bitcoins price will always be at $2,500. But the price now has decreased a $100 already. We saw the price reached $2,600 and now it is at $2,501. Hope that this will lead to next pump.

The market has been moving within a certain range for quite some time now. I don't think we'll see anything change in that regard. Main point of importance is that the market, community, potential investors, etc, all are waiting for how everything will play out when it comes to the activation of SegWit, and which proposal will walk out as winner. No pump until it's clear what's going to happen -- in the meanwhile, these repetitive price movements lend themselves perfectly for traders to use them in their advantage.

This is normal, just as rising and falling prices make trading more profitable, but I'm optimistic bitcoin prices will continue to skyrocket and this year will raise $5000.

i think the price is too much stable for last few weeks. i think people are now a little cautious to buy bitcoin, but still they are not even interested to sell their bitcoin. i am sure that they will continue holding bitcoin tell 1st August and after that they will be thinking about to start buying again, but at that time bitcoin will be really shootup too high.

I'm gonna buy because the prise really dropped. Gonna stack a lil more BTC cuz after a week/2  its gonna go up again

at this time the right time because of the bitcoin declined so that has not shown a high potential so true that some investors are waiting for the right time to invest the money but I think that they should invest money in bitcoin now because I can not see prices fall again and after that it will start to rise again. .

Yes right, do not panic when the price goes down, believe the price goes up as the demand for bitcoin is high while the stock remains.

To date, Bitcoin shows steady growth, despite all the fluctuations in the rate. Already in recent times, you can observe plus $ 300 to the real price. We really do not have to panic because until the end of the year we should generally see a jump, according to new forecasts.

i hope that we can see the price is going to go up soon after the down trend in last weeks. but i think every traders is waiting until august 1, so many of them that gets panic and its makes the price go down. i hope that after august 1, the price will increase more high so the altcoin will following to increase too.

Exactly. Bitcoin price is now stable above 2000$. Certain dumps and then pumps of 30 to 40$ are just the News which make people buy and sell but for sure it will not fall below 2000$.  I think we should not panic on these little dumps.

So had you bought some? If are able bought bitcoin at $2,460 the price now went up back to $2,540. There's almost 80$ profit, when the price is getting lower it is just a chance for holder to buy some more because it will make the price higher again. So whales are benefiting on this.

Yesterday the price had dropped at $2400 and it seems at the time of dropped that there are some people who panic selling even I see someone my friend on facebook there who says "bitcoin freefall" and I say "freefall has not happened, bitcoin price will still be maintained at $2000 ". Lol, and now we can see for yourself the price keeps moving at $2500.

Price seems to be stabilizing around the value of $2500 for a long. This adds a resistance to the price increase which is expected to happen within certain time, once after the ongoing segwit activation. Now currently the price seems to stagger between the limits of $2500 - $2650 till the month end.

Everything that rise has to fall to a certain extent to make a bigger leap. Also stabilization is required so that it doesn't fall too much. It would also help traders to understand what are break points where they can accumulate more.

I seriously don't know what is it with you guys and this small price fluctuations  ??? I am pretty much aware of the fact that even a single buck change could effect in millions, 16.5M if price drops by $1 then in this situation $16.5M dollars could be gone but that's just the potential figure.
Not everyone is willing to sell all their coins that with only $1 drop or rise. bitcoin is no longer a good option for micro transactions and or penny earnings, someone who wants to pay someone else an amount equal to $5M and doesn't want to use the banks and have the transactions in governmental and their legal records instead he uses bitcoin, he buys $5.2M and losing $200K is nothing for him compared to the time when he would've wanted to try any bank transfer because simply they would've marked the money as illegal and he'd lost all of it instead of $200K.

Bitcoin is a good tool for such businesses and not for third world poor countries to earn their living from it.
