Would you buy Bitcoins right now?  ???

This would be the hard part if you do buy bitcoin at the current price because its really really expensive as of now we are on 3400 range price point on which its really high and we wont know if this would be a peak or not.If we do aim for long term then buying now wont really be a hindrance at all. If you are a short trader i would rather wait for price decrease later on seems like we are on a bubble as of now.

I think you just sold part of my bitcoins. I wouldn't do it but I need the money. In order to buy at this price I'm not ready yet. I guess I need time to get used to that price. But closer to September the price will be higher that's for sure.

Why not? I still expect Bitcoin to reach the $5,000 per coin mark before the end of this year. SegWit2x is not a permanent solution to the scaling issue, but it is not going to create problems for at least another 12 months. So until then, the prices will push upwards.

We are seeing a upward stretch for bitcoin price, but is it going to continue? well it is possible to really see the $5000 mark value but it is to early to speculated on that price yet, but if the price would surely continue to rise and fall to a $3800 mark value then I am thinking it can surely reach the $5000 mark, and segwit activation is just getting started we can surely see in the upcoming years!

I just did.

I am 100% certain that it is going to go to $1,000,000 per 1 BTC in the future.

I am so certain about this, that I am willing to commit to pay you 10 BTC if it never reaches an exchange rate of $1,000,000 per 1 BTC.

Great, it's about time people start realizing that there's no perfect time to buy bitcoins because at any time and at any rate you buy it you still stand a chance of making good returns in future should you be patient enough.

Yeah i would buy bitcoin even though the price looks unrealistic but i think if there is no coins can compete to bitcoin, surely the price bitcoin would be higher than current price maybe i just need to be patient because to get a profit will need take a longer time.

It's still a good time to buy Bitcoin instead of sitting and watching it hit $5000 then start regretting not buying at $3400. It's always tricky to decide when it's a good time to buy but if you are in for the long term, you'll have nothing to for sure.

I strongly believe this is not just some bubble we are in right now. Remember we got from around $2800. When it reached $3000, I was already thinking this will be going on for a while. And then it reached $3100 and so on. We are at $3500 right now. Buy now, If I were you. We might be hitting $4000.

I think you should wait for some small dump. It should happen at some time... If not, you can buy from this price, it will reach the moon, you won't be sorry don't worry :)

If you are positive that it will rise more then decide fast.  ;D
Lucky to those who bought at $3200 yesterday and now they have profited $200. Wow.
Where would you pick that amount of money for a day just by standing by outside or just walking on the streets.
Here it can be found just by investing then sit, wait and sleep.  ;D

It's ALWAYS a good time to buy Bitcoin for long-term holding, regardless of price.
I can guarantee you that the price will never stop increasing, all dips are temporary.
So even though you missed out on making potentially millions by buying Bitcoin much much earlier, you should buy now so as to not regret it in a few years from now.

bitcoin still has a power to stay in high prices and increasing prices when demands of bitcoin increases too. as we know many peoples had believed that after August 1 happened the price of bitcoin will increase to new records. so just need to be patient for wait the price growing up.

Bitcoin price is fluctuate for some months till December. Don't worry about recent bump. This will not fallback but fluctuatations will be there.
Christmas bump take more than 4000$ before this year ends. You can buy now also this value double to fiat cost.

The price is way too high for me to buy right now. I think the price will drop some because there are always fluctuations with Bitcoin. It's getting to the point that Bitcoins are too expensive so most of us can no longer buy whole Bitcoins. The best thing about s to wait for a price drop and then buy whatever fraction of a Bitcoin you can afford to buy.

i always buy bitcoin whenever i have the money. if the price is all you care about then i can assure you that the price will be a lot more than this current price which will make you laugh some day. (same as $20 does today).

but know that there is more to bitcoin than just its price. like the financial freedom that you get from it, being decentralized and secure without needing any third man in the middle :)

Well if I also have the funds then I will get bitcoin. But looking at the price, too expensive for me to get it. Maybe if there is a dip in price, but I doubt it will go to a level where casual investors like me can simply buy. I would rather earn it right now and don't bother to buy. I will also hold for long time. Maybe what we are speculating about the price ($10,000 or more) can truly happened.

When thinking that BTC is expensive, I always try to think what the price will be in 5 - 10 & 15 years time... then I realise its dirt cheap today and there will probably never be as good a time to buy again.

If someone is going to hold some bitcoin for more than couple of months, current rate doesn't look so high. Though I would agree that is more pleasure to buy a dip.

the current rates was so high and honestly i have recently sold my bitcoin but to buy again

maybe i have to wait a little longer because i fear after i buy now there will be slightly dropped or even more worst

I concur with you in this regard that soon after the activation of Segwit; bitcoins will what the rise in their price. I don't think so it is too early to speculate about Bitcoins heading towards dollar 5000. Bitcoin will surely continue rising in price in the closing months of this year.

If only I have extra money all the time then I will probably buy bitcoin every time I have the opportunity since this is a long term investment to me. Don't wait for the price to drop if your vision of holding bitcoin is 2-5 years because if you keep on saying bitcoin price right now is so expensive and you wait for another month and bitcoin price will moon again then when are you buying? Buy now when you still have time!

Depending the demand buy Bitcoin on market in next time, we can't predict exactly 100% the highest price of Bitcoin in this year. The target $3000 is a dream for Bitcoin holder in last year, however this target can become true just in one year ;D

Well, now i don't know that i will buy bitcoin or not.
But now i am not in a position to buy it, as you know the bitcoin price so high.
So for me, i can only think about it but can't buy it easily.
May be after some days i will think again to buy the bitcoin, but now my answer is no.

Many people had believed that bitcoin price will go down.but they were wrong.Bitcoin has it's own power to stay in high prices.it's prices is increasing.i think it's price will be more high in future.

Why not? According to my calculations, the price will continue rising to between $5,000-6,000.

We are only half done with this exponential climb.

I already spend my money to buy them. ;D
I cannot afford more because I got no money (or fiat, I should say).
Oh well, soon we will be on the moon. :)

yes I will buy bitcoin right now if I have money, because there is no such specific time to buy bitcoin. It is because at any time if you want to buy bitcoin you can buy and after some time like couple of months you will definitely get profit because of the continuously increase in prices of bitcoin and now a days prices will round about $3300 and the people who buy bitcoin before 2 months they will enjoy their life right now.

If i would have funds i will definitely buy some but unfortunately i don't have. Don't be afraid to buy the coins at current price because the price is increasing day by day and it will definitely going to boost high.

i think the price of bitcoin is depending on the interest of the people. if people are interested in bitcoin to invest their money here then the demand of bitcoin is increasing where as the supply is decreasing which is also increasing the price of bitcoin i am sure that in next few weeks the price of bitcoin will trading above 4000$.

I think if you buy for now there is still a chance and do not ever be afraid to take a decision and I am sure bitcoin prices can reach more than current prices .. if you still have more savings in invested in bitcoin and bitcoin is very convincing because it has been proven from year to year  8)

Well I want to but I will watch the market for some days before I finally buy it. Although I think it wouldn't be a wrong decision to buy bitcoin even now as bitcoin has never disappointed those who bought it even at the prices when they were considered to be high in the market but still I'm a bit reluctant to buy it now and would like to wait for some more time maybe the prices go a bit down in the coming days and then I'll buy it.

yes, segwit already locked-in this morning so we could see a pump on this coin. I sell all my altcoins so that I can ride on this pump. Hope all will go well on bitcoin as well as to altcoins.

I agree.I knew it from the very first place that bitcoin price will continue to rise fly high to the moon.And now it's really happening.I do have faith in bitcoin that its price will be unstoppable for the next months and years.I guess it will reach around $6k to $7k.That would sound very interesting and breath taking.

Yes but 20% of the amount in Bitcoin Cash

Having mixed feelings about it. I'm really regretting that I did not buy the bitcoin in previous week and this has happened its previous week too. Now thinking that I should really buy bitcoins regardless of its current price and thinking that it will rise even higher than this. I'm taking time but I will for sure as I don't want to regret myself next week. The chart and numbers are making me numb really.

Hmmm... This question is really hard to answer because unless there is something obvious like the Bitcoin halving approaching, it is very difficult to predict whether Bitcoin price will drop or rise over the coming days. The prices hyped over the past week but seem to have levelled out. It didn't rise much from yesterday.

For short-term, I wouldn't buy Bitcoin right now. Its price smashed 3300USD. In other words, the price is really high. However, if you willing to invest or hold Bitcoin for a long term period, then buying Bitcoin now may be profitable.

As a general summary for those who have just started reading this thread:

More of the respondents say that YES, most would still buy bitcoin even at the current rate of $3300++.

Personally, i am a short term trader and cannot afford to keep my fiat in bitcoin for too long, so NO, i will not buy bitcoin at this price because i believe the short term outlook is "risky."

Yes buy now when you're planning to hold for long term. Sure you can have a good profit to this even the current price is high. And this price will definitely goes up over time so dont wait for some dips or you never had the chance to this.

for me i think its kinda bit late for now because its already high for this year, i can predict that the price of bitcoins will go back to 2600 to 2700$ in the next few weeks. I am patiently waiting for it to come so that i will buy bulk of bitcoins again soon for sure profit.

Is it too late short term wise? It depends on your targets. If you are looking just for some quick gains, then one could indeed say that it is semi-late to start buying at current levels. I personally don't see much more upwards potential than 20% at most. If you are looking to hold your coins for the long term, then you can perfectly fine start buying right now. If you don't have any coins right now, I would go with using 50% of the money right now, and have the rest aside for when the price happens to go down. If the price goes down, then use 5-10% of the remaining funds to buy back lower, and continue all the way down. Buying back lower will help you in getting your average buying price to decrease.

Probably yes. The price of bitcoin might be expensive or high for some people that are observing the market but if you are a long term investor then you can easily get profit with bitcoin even if you will buy right now and you just need to forget about it and come back after at least 3-5 years and observe the profit that you got.

It really depends in your God feel, you must first think about it 10 times if its worth the risk and to have profit at the end. If you have doubts its not even wrong not buying at this time, when it is in lower price do it.

So I think you are right we are very became late to buy it now because it's price touch to moon and we can not buy it easily. But, Moreover. when we buy it now they will get in exchange it give more profit to us when we hold it. So I think that time we need to buy it because it price will not goes to again low and it is impossible that price will back to again 2600$ or 2700$ .

If i have the money why not! I will buy because anybody who expect bitcoin to decline below  $3000 such a person is waiting his or her time. The same thing was said when bitcoin value was around  $1500 that is too high to buy at that rate for there is need to for dump but it never came. Am pretty sure that same will happen here.

It will likely take a long time when you expect bitcoin prices to decline. The current bitcoin price continues to rise and shows a very positive improvement graph. So I think buying bitcoin now is not a mistake, you can still sell it for a high price. Wait a few days ahead and you have a profit.

Exactly that's the best idea when we discuss about profit here and of course the 3-5 years of profit gains you've got from bitcoin will not end up worthless because bitcoin buying and selling rate always matters. That’s why most of the investors will buy while the price is still rising, because they always gamble for bigger profit gains and sell when they hit their goals of what they had invested so far. Long term investments can be highly reliable specially that bitcoin capability of today’s markets, were at very higher demands and the numbers of actual interested people is increasing day by day.

I would not buy right now. The price will probably drop some but either way, the prices right now are too expensive for me. I prefer to hold and gain a little through trading and lending.

The days of low prices for Bitcoin are probably past unless there is some kind of negative news that makes the price take a huge drop. At this point it seems unlikely.

Nope for now, the price of bitcoin is unstable and still on top right now. I prefer to wait and hold my money first, i will wait 1 more weeks to see the bitcoins price chart. If the condition is good, i might buy some bitcoins and will sell it when the price going up a bit. I won't take any risk for now.

I just need Bitcoin can create strong support line at $3000 after breakout in this week, of course maybe I will miss opportunity buy Bitcoin with cheap price if next week Bitcoin continue breakout $4000. But I always choose safe point before starting trade.

Hell yeah! If its for long term holding I will buy.
We dont know if bitcoin's price will go down or up, so dont wait for dips or else you will regret if the price will rise again.
Besides, we will profit to it as we HODL.

I will not prefer to buy right now as price is already above $3k and there is a possibility that it might drop down in coming days so I will prefer to wait for some more days and see how price behaves and depending on that will take my decision.

Many of my friends are also said and accepting their fault that they have not bought bitcoin due to fear of 1st August and now the rate is very high. I have predicted last week that the bitcoin price will touch $5000 for 1 bitcoin at the end of this year and I think bitcoin is going successfully towards my prediction. I thin current daily increase in the price of bitcoin will go over my prediction at the end of this years.

$5000 price is possible to achieve in this year itself and we don't have to wait longer to see that price as bitcoin is moving in a positive direction since the beginning of the year and we can expect the same thing in coming months too.

Anything can happen so it might go the other way around. I know it's kind of late to buy but I think it will soar higher. This is not like the past year where only a few people know bitcoin. This is the year where many players like Japan and China has joined the game. It's really going upward because bitcoin users are increasing everyday.

If you have a lot of money righ now, it's possible to buy it. But if you don't, don't forcing yourself, because now bitcoin prices is very high it in the range $ 3690, and probably will be up to $ 3700, that is a very high price this month. Most people will sell the bitcoin they have, so I think carefully about your decision.

Absolutely I would buy right now. In fact I did buy some yesterday when I saw it had hit $3500, and now it is up $300 since I bought less than 24 hours ago!

Bitcoin has gone up $1000 in a week and its new ATH is over $800 the old one, by far the best week in terms of dollar amount that bitcoin has ever had. It might push past $4000 this weekend, but since it has gone up so much I do expect a pullback to maybe low-3000s this week. Though the pullback will probably only last for a few days. So it might be a little bit cheaper to buy in a few days, but then again it might not, maybe bitcoin goes up a few hundred more dollars. You can never trust in guessing for bitcoin to go down.

Which all means now is a great time to buy!
If you hold for long term then it doesn't matter very much if you buy now or get a little cheaper price or get a little bit more expensive price. The profits are going to be so huge in the next few years you'll make a ton either way. So you may as well buy now.

Best strategy is to buy some each month (or maybe even each week) with whatever extra money you have, and keep doing it. Sometimes you might get lucky and buy when it goes down, but the goal is to just get more and more bitcoin for future HUGE profits, so buying regularly is the best strategy.

Ya it seems like that only.Yesterday price of bitcoin is around 3600$ .Today it reaches the price of 3800$ .In one day 200$  raised. If this continues with out fluctuates means .The price of bitcoin will reach 4000$ with in this week itself.No doubt in that so.This will happen soon .
