Some experts who says bitcoin to completely crash is it true ? One of the reason said is virtual currency having no physical form and at least no transferable physically can not be recognized by  retail public users.

While it is possible that bitcoin fall to those levels it is unlikely barring some serious bad news/technical errors. There are a number of supports between 8500 and $1500. The last time bitcoin dropped that low was pre-bitcoin cash fork and there were fears that that could end bitcoin (just to give an idea of the scale of what would be required). Would be a good opportunity to pick some more up at that price but its a long shot at best.

all i am going to say to this is that each time there is a tiny crash, some idiots come out and start calling themselves "experts" and say price will fall to some ridiculously low number. they say this with complete randomness.

hence proving my point that these are idiots calling themselves "experts".

Bitcoin this time is so low theres a big difference of the bitcoin value last december 2017 and early january 2018 that months bitcoin value is too high but this time its dropping so maybe all bitcoin holders should hold their coins and wait for the price coming up again.

Bitcoin $400  ;D

The money will go to Gold and Silver   :)

There is always something like this when the price is falling they would say that it would go down to some random low price,
But when the price is increasing they would also choose a random high price I mean what it is for to scare the weak hands and to make them greedy,
My point here is we don't really know how much it would fall we are the ones who are responsible for the fall (The news+FUD+Weak hands= Price dump)

Yes it makes sense that it will fall to $1000 lets hope so. Satoshi wanted bitcoin to be money for all people not only for big whales. But today we see mining monopoly from big miners. This is not fair at all. Bitcoin cannot be $10000 it is too much for average earner. Bitcoin must be cheaper otherwise it will be negation if Satoshi original idea.

These experts are like shit.
Bitcoins to $1,000? That's not possible. If bitcoin could reach $1,000, then I would consider selling all my assets to buy bitcoins.

It's just a trick to get bitcoin at a cheap price. If you follow this whale, you have been deceived. too many speculation and prediction about bitcoin in future, but we dont know which one is true. its time to take a break, enjoy your profit, and comeback after bitcoin price got stable

I think that's not the main reason why bitcoin prices are down, lots of shock and hard slap to bitcoin in the end of the year 2017, then also bitcoin too fast rises and high in 2017, making this year's recovery very long.

so, do not have a lot of strange speculation why bitcoin down. especially with the reason because bitcoin shaped digital. calm down and do not panic, everything will be back to normal.

Bitcoin falling to 5000 dollars is least expected price for this month

This month it will pump again in the market. But it take two weeks because some countries are implementing the cryptocurrency and Chinese festival also affected in the market so it will fall in one more weeks.
But Feburary 28 it will reach 15k US dollar is possible because many experts are predict the future possibilities. I believe this Bitcoin it will going to moon.

Why stop at $1800 - $1500, why not a literal zero. There are approximately around 16,842,225 Bitcoins in circulation, now obviously with this number a lot of people should be holding on to their Bitcoin, and obviously from these there would be a good number of people who aren't bothered about price movements, corrections or about what experts say. Not saying Bitcoin couldn't fall to a level below $1500, but for something like that to happen there should be some big global realistic event, not temporary corrections or hypothetical assessments by so called experts.

It’s true. Even BTC can crash to 1$ or 0$.

No one know.

Tou should believe in yourself, not on someone else that try to make you FUD.
If you don’t believe in bitcoin, just sell it and go away, else let HODL.

A lot of expert in trading have different speculation some expert believed that its just the price correction some expert said that this  this is the time to sell bitcoin because price will down. On my own opinion even im not expert this is just what we called panic selling because a lot of wrong information release on social media.

The "Experts" want the price to be lower so they can accumulate. I don't think anyone knows how low this dip can go, most of the people that are speaking the loudest about it seem to know the least in reality

With current events involving the dump from $20k, I would say even more bad news could make those predictions of $1k+  come true. At first, I was confident that Bitcoin could hold above $9k.. now look where we are at.  :'(

I believe that bitcoin will never crash, because they are already interested very influential people that bitcoin is simply necessary, and they invested not a small amount!!!

I don’t know dude, $20,000 to $8,000 drop. I think this qualifies as a little more than a tiny crash, it was a bloodletting that drained away 60% of bitcoins value inside of two weeks. I don’t know how far it will drop but this is already a major bubble pop. I hope these experts are right because I’m going to buy btc like mad at $1,500.

This time last year bitcoin was in the $1500 to $1800 range and we were all breaking out the champagne!

It won't fall that far back - but even if it does, it will be higher than the last peak which means the overall upward trend is intact. (To break the overall trend, BTC needs to fall below $1100)

I think big sellers hold down the price, to let the new investors come in, this year an bix change will be come.
Many shareholders, banks and hedge funds come in.

I think bitcoin will not fall that much because of it's current market price it's normal in the market of crypto to go down and up there's no such crypto that is always going up. if you don't mind can you include your source where you get this information??

I don't think it will possibly happen because every one gives his own opinion and every one has right for it. Social media is for everyone and no one can stop anyone to gives its opinion. Most of the people which we said experts are usually some famous youtubers that doesn't mean that they have experties in cryptocurrencies and i don't think anyone can tell you exact feature and i don't think it will crash as much.

Look what he based his opinions on though. I see some solid findings and I hate to admit that I was also skeptical at first. Now, it looks like we are falling slowly to the predicted price level.

No one really knows that when and how much the price will fall even the experts are nit always right.If they know then they will be a millionaire now.Yes it is a virtual currency,now a days even the Fiat currency is also use in the form of debit and credit card that also don't have the physical structure.The main reason for the not acceptance of cryotocurrency as a means of payment is due to its price volatility.

I suppose that minimum BTC price will be about 8k $ per 1 BTC. I do not see reason of BTC dump till 1.5k $ - it is too low for current criptocurrency market

Which experts do you mean? do you have factual data? please provide me with complete data if it is true of some experts who state it. you are wrong, the virtual currency is created as a transaction tool in the digital world. do not need real physical like fiat currency. I think you should try again to find information about bitcoin for your understanding and knowledge. bitcoin will be pumped back. let's wait what will happen.

Then it will go to 19$.

If experts says it will crash to that level of price why are they keep holding and not cashing out their funds? The market is unpredictable if all I know and no one knows really what is happening but all I can say is that its just every year bitcoin has its downfall and will surely rise after that.

We are reaching the early investment levels of Bitcoin, many of these people are holding on for dear life. I honestly think it won't go below 5K. Many of the people who are holding lower are millionaires in all honesty. So someone would really have to shake things up to shake the money out of their hands. I would recommend just keeping an eye on the various market forces , because as soon as this negative wave of news ends, Bitcoin will consolidate and rise once again. I would also say that the common tactics used to create FUD are slowly becoming less and less effective.

follow Crypto Calls 2.0 telegram channel to find out #Cryptocallz

this will not happen, correction bitcoin is over. now there will be a jump to 12000-13000. Now we are in the phase of accumulation. This is my personal opinion, but everyone thinks with his own head.

Expert?blah blah,those are such mad people who don't see how worthy is virtual currency.All they can do is to spread fud news to the economy and i pity those who get in their hand.Its too early for bitcoin to crash and as if it would.All i can say is dont beleive to those experts wanna be and believe on yourself mate.


IMO Yes for other things but for bitcoin? I don't think so,bitcoin is unpredictable,predictions for crypto currency is not 100% accurate.

I think it's just FUD mate, If you say that bitcoin is unshaped that is the reason it's been around since bitcoin first circulated that bitcoin did not have any physical shape, but then bitcoin skyrocketed, its not problem anymore dude ? everyone knows that all finances will become digital in the future, I thought the reason was far-fetched, one of the problems right now is the government's legalization that makes the crypto market go awry, but you dont need to worry, in the future there will be a bright spot about the status of bitcoin, actually this problem has existed several years ago, but again its not a problem and does not make bitcoin die, precisely gold back to skyrocket,

What the hell does that even mean?

Some expert said that suicide is good for your health, would you do it?

I hate it when someone says "xx person said that bitcoin is going to crash, dump your bitcoins now!!!", because in the end, their speculative opinion will remain exactly just that and nothing more than that. It's not going to be accurate.

Sure, bitcoin has no physical form, but that is its advantage as well - it is easily sent and received, and is infinity divisible and every single unit is interchangeable. Bitcoin can fall to $1500-1800, but not in my opinion.

Haha i am really eager to know who are these "experts".These so called experts pop up whenever there is a Pump or Dump in bitcoin's value.It's nearly impossible to speculate bitcoins value,i wonder these experts are time travellers;thats the only possibility to predict bitcoin's value.

Maybe an expert on making FUDs , i doubt how the predict and specified those numbers, those who easily panics are the cause of dump, those fudders just want to buy it on cheap price.

These numbers to me are just imposible .. and is not just a feeling but there are technical analises you can do for your own .. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2873063.msg29503403#msg29503403

cheers!

There is no currency bigger than $100 bill. How can 1 Bitcoin be more than $100 ?

if bitcoin price will get  $1900/$1800 price then I'll buy it because I am petty sure after that fall it will go up and high

Me too if the bitcoin price will go down at $1,500 I will defenitly buy some bitcoin to horde like others do and wait for a couple of months and see the progress of it. I see that is really a great strategy for the investor for them to get it in cheap price then work for it while the price is still pumping up.

I think that only people who can manipulate bitcoin can know anything about future price. We cannot be sure that it will grow or fall or even disappear.

The bitcoin crash caused China South Korea to intensify its regulatory efforts over Bitcoin. At present, bitcoin recovered some lost ground.

yes bitcoin will recover no matter how deep it will fall because bitcoin is too strong to shut down by this bans

Large players manipulate the market for their own benefit, there will not be a collapse.

Maybe but in my own opinion i dont believe in these "experts" they are just a bunch of old dudes who prefer an old way of investments. I don't think they know much about the crypto and the future ahead of it so relax and if it goes down to 1500 i will gladly buy btc.

I don't believe that , but everything can happen.

What? Are you people even serious right now? That would be a dream come true moment for me since I would scoop up a bucket load of bitcoins for such a low value. However, this will most likely not happen since the whales won't simply back down from one of the best financial opportunities of this century. Bitcoin will most likely never go back to <100$ levels ever again and am expecting it reach $40k by the end of this year which is why I am HODLING.

I doubt it. Large investors are not advantageous to bring down the rate below 6500. And most likely below, we will not go . someone very serious want to get in the game apparently!)

I don't believe so, that's too small. But we've seen some crazy stuff before. I just feel like Bitcoin is already a good price if it drops a little more people are going start buying up again. At the moment of this post we're seeing the markets recover and seeing a lot of green right now.

While others are trying to be experts, let be known to them that bitcoin never fall down 90% of its price ever since when few only people have known bitcoin. Now that bitcoin is mainstream, i don't think it will go down that could even get closer to 90%. But if that happens, then it's time to buy more.

Well by that logic even PP funds are a virtual currency therefore even paypal funds are worthless af

I just want to know where did you get the information about bitcoin will fall to the level of $1,800 or $1,500? Because to be honest, if bitcoin will reach that value, then I would say that was too small amount and for sure, most of the people will hardly believe to trust again. The value of bitcoin today reached $7,829 which for me is enough. Bitcoin is anonymous and if there are people who can manipulate btc, then they are the one who is worth trusting for rather than news or an article with unreliable sources.

This is a complicated issue (about investing with Bitcoin) and can greatly influence market perception. So be careful, in addition to the absence of regulators that oversee the digital currency transactions, Bitcoin also not underlying transaction and vulnerable to be a means of money laundering, you should do education how transparency should be done so that users know how to protect themselves.

They are only good predictors as they call themselves,but not good at innovating what others can predict and their predictions are the beginning of their failures.

It would be good you guys read History of Bubble http://www.hashtaginvesting.com/blog/is-cryptocurrency-a-bubble
You will understand why this bitcoin blood bath is ON. It happened in 90s (dotcom) and in 1600s with Tulip.

Anything can happen in the price of bitcoin no one can control the flactuation of the market. The flactuations depends on the investors who invest and who dumps the coin.

I wish it was true, so that I could buy more but to be perfectly honest I don't see it happening.
maybe there are some course corrections ahead of us, but not so low. 5k max.

And some known experts says Bitcoin will reach $25,000 for this year. So who is telling the truth now? Actually, bitcoin is unpredictable although they say that bitcoin can be manipulated by Big whales, banks and all kinds of haters but still if we are one in which we are stronger together that if we hold and keep buying Bitcoin we could all make things possible.  ;)

bitcoin touch 6000 dollars but still there is risk bitcoin may touch 4500 dollars if any new dump come but 4500 dollars is at present least price we can expect

It is evident that this issue is not unique to btc and things will eventually return to normal ,most world markets are currently experiencing some slump or another, it might take some time normalcy to return . If the price should fall to those levels its an opportunity to buy some bitcoins(remember bitcoins were being sold for .08 cents and up to December its value was well over 19000)whats driving this price volatility is the huge amount of speculation that currently exist in the market , it seems a recovery will occur before it does reach those levels though .

I'm quite agree with you that bitcoin has raise too fast in the past years, which makes it easy to fall down.
For long term investment, it seems a good chance to invest bitcoin for now

As for now falling in 1800 or 1500$ value is unbelievable, check out how many transaction did the blockchain have everyday. It is very ridiculous that after a little drop on price there are mushroom who called them self "expert". Maybe they hold a lot of Crypto and they want to manipulate the market of digital currency that's why they want calling their name expert.

as  i read the two bubble happens The Tulip and The Dot com, the writer quote "There is a good chance that only coins with solid fundamentals will survive the current bloodbath." and i believe that the SOLID FUNDAMENTALS of bitcoin are US, so we and bitcoin will survive...

HAPPY EARNINGS!

I don't know if bitcoin will go down to $1500 but even it go to zero the lmportant thing l know is bitcoin will survive in the future. But its really hard if bitcoin has a very low price because everybody will wait for a long time.To all bitcoin savers have no problem to wait for the coming price increase. But to those people who are just expecting for their salary, they have to sell it wether it's in low price.

What happen now with bitcoin is just a Temporary fall...i'am sure that people in this world still truste bitcoin and the price will rise again to the moon

Bitcoin prices are always volatile, so we have no one to predict, even long-time experienced investors in the field of virtual currency trading cannot predict accurately. Their success is due to the good fortune they have earned from Bitcoin, in the coming months, there will be other changes in Bitcoin.

I think this can not happen. By November 2017, bitcoin prices fell below $ 7,000; But by December 2017, bitcoin prices rose to $ 20,000. Experts predict that in 2018 bitcoin prices will rise to $ 50,000. I fully believe that bitcoin will never be wiped out. It will grow more in the future.

I believe that it will not happen. Millions of people still support Bitcoin, many sites start to take BTC, investors are ready to buy Bitcoin futures. It will not fall so much. In 3-4 weeks it will start growing.

Yes $4500

If it does, im definetely buying! Finally i can have a decent number of BTC :D

With Bitcoin, anything is possible. It is not backed up by any real asset, and therefore the prices are solely determined by the demand-supply equilibrium. If there is not enough demand in the market, then the prices can fall to record lows.

Bitcoins can drop to the level of $1800 price only if negative news continues to come in day after day and holders of bitcoins too keep selling at any price that is offered them, then It is possible for it to fall to that level. But these two conditions is highly impossible.

This would be a perfect solution for me. I would buy a lot of BTC and wait until it returns to the old tracks. BTC has already fallen several times and has always raised. So it will be now.

The buying stops

I am an expert too!! See how easy that was?? Now, will you listen to anything I say now because I have told you that I am an expert?
Bitcoin is not going to go down to that low that is just plain silly and makes no sense. There is too much of a demand for it to ever go down again. I think this last sink we went through will be the lowest price. So right now bitcoin is not going to get cheaper then it is now.

You are partly right about the price to fall at a certain lower values that's why it may caused crashing, but for now that speculations about falling at $1800 or $1500 is merely a fud. Fake news made things worst about what is happening right now with bitcoin community, because the value was gaining slowly as I've noticed everyday the change was not that progressive compared of what is happening last middle days of december 2017. Our asset here with bitcoin is a strong faith on what we're focused of specially being a long term investors, who really holds a bitcoin value with controlled emotions.

It is impossible since bitcoin is somehow the evolved version of money. What people can do is adapt to change like what they did centuries ago when there was still barter system.

These are merely assumptions unsubstantiated by accurate evidence. In line with their argument, however, we are already in the digital age for as long as I can remember. People have been doing almost all of their chores and jobs online without having to leave the comfort of their homes. Thus, to say that when something is not transferable physically is tantamount to not being recognized is outright absurd. What about credit cards? The latter are used for booking, reserving, paying online, among others. It does not involve immediate physical transfer of cash yet it is accepted by merchants because it is supported by banks, which are backed up by governments. It has basically the same idea -- to make almost everything accessible without physical transfer as of the time of transaction -- just that Bitcoin does not have the same system as that of credit cards. So from here, you should see how faulted their argument is.

Bitcoin will never come down as low, there is a lot of other support very strong to break.

There is possibility, let's remember, bitcoin value rely's to the users, whenever there is high demand it could be the sign of pumping up. 1800 or 1500? That's not bad as long there is value,:) 

It is unlikely that bitcoin will fall, and even more so to such a low price. I think that the price bottom of bitcoin was three days ago, then it dropped to 6,000 dollars. Now he stopped at the level of 8,000 dollars. If in the next few days it does not go down, when their New Year comes in China, then after that, I think bitcoin will be going up a bit. This situation could be accelerated by a network of lightning or phantom that could eliminate the shortcomings of bitcoin and increase the demand for it, but it is not known when this time will come.

Well sadly, I cannot tell you for sure because no matter how much my confidence on bitcoins are since I do believe in its greatness, I just do not possess evidences that can concretely prove that bitcoin will recover and never reach a price as low as that ever again but clues from the prices for every time on each year. Just search a bit for this to understand why i am so confident lol.

I hope it can reach that price LoL. Bitcoin price is too high now!

No matter how strong your faith in bitcoin future, FUD could always break it all anytime. So better to always support bitcoin development for example to use it as your daily online payment tool , spread it and you might get your faith in bitcoin growing not just stuck there in doubt. The value would increase as you helped the ecosystem getting stronger, the bitcoin user getting high in number etc.

Many people are waiting for this price to become true and also here on bitcointalk. Hope it will be at this price again but it will be very hard to see bitcoin again at 1500$, at 5000$ they are huge buy order and don't think we are going to hit 5000$ either! Buy now if you are planning a long-term investment

Well the price of bitcoin has been a speculation from time in memorial and so no one can concretely predict its future because it keeps fluctuating as determined by the demand or a supply on the market. I'm likewise optimistic that the prices are going to pick up again after a while but for it to fall that low i strongly doubt.

I don't care what the price does short term, because I am a long term holder.  The wonderful thing about a long term strategy is lack of stress.  You don't have to worry about current price, you only have to worry about long term viability.  If it is viable long term, eventually price will go up.  Any short term drops from FUD etc can be ignored, or used as an opportunity to accumulate more.

That being said, I believe that bitcoin does have existential risks.  I would caution anyone to not put all their money in it because it could be replaced some day, and such a thing is very difficult to predict.

If you are investing on cyrpto currency market then you have to get used to be in patient, wait wait wait, as long term investor. Because you may make a loss on your investment but in the long run you most probably turn it to a profitable case, at the end of the day it will increase. the price can be anything, if you invest the money that you do not need in short term then you will be fine, hopefully.

An expert just make the market get worst, they just shut their mouth i think, i believe bitcoin will never reach that below that $5000
It stable in $6000 or $7000
Just sitback and relax bitcoin price will rise to the moon and beyond

Than is ok ! Long term holder i am quite sure price will hit again 20K dollars for bitcoin . Non sure when but it will for sure! bitcoin is always bitcoin

I never thought bitcoin would fall to below $ 2000 it would only make bitcoin unknown and unpopular. it's just a less developed issue and not good for cryptocurrency. so I feel bitcoin will return to the highest position in some time to come.

It is unlikely in the near future (let´s say a couple of years). If it reaches that level, I am quite sure that I am betting my own house on it LOL No, seriously, I think that it can´t happen.

While it could happen yet but it certainly won't happen because it isnt physical. Money today already isn't physical (for the most part) yet we trust that system. The system that is controlled by governments and at any day they can increase the money supply which will decrease your purchasing power. I don't understand people who say "crypto isn't backed by anything", because your fiat system isn't either buddy. ::)

Guys, even if bitcoin drops to $ 2000, then do not worry! Over the last few years, we can observe a trend of constant growth! When bitcoin cost 5 cents, they did not believe in it either! I'm sure that by the summer, bitcoin will cost $ 25,000! Therefore, do not panic, we must wait until March! Now it's better to buy at such a sweet price as now! Then such a low price is not

Well it is possible. If we hear very bad news, it is possible. Even in one day we can see that level. I believe that we will not see under $6000 level again, but we always have that potential in this volatile market.

No one knows what it is going to be the price in the next days or months anyone that says that is lying, we can speculate but that is it, if the reasons given by those experts were true then bitcoin will never had reached any kind of value since the beginning don't you think? After all bitcoin does not have a tangible form from the moment it was created.

That's very unreasonable news. It's not that easy that bitcoin falls to the lowest price.I still believe that bitcoin stays on top and will continue to increase in price.

I have bids in @ $0.99

I believe that our convictions and trading decisions should not be so volatile as to depend on each new communication that appears on the Internet regarding the recommendations of supposed experts in the bitcoin issue. I have recently seen so many disparate forecasts that it seems like a waste of time to pay attention to all of them.

these persons that are predicting that bitcoin will crash, What kind of expert do they really are? Why is it that it's whatever bitcoin price is going down that's when they usually come up with their mold faces and start making stupid predictions

I think they're only experts for being fudder. Real experts should keep watch the bitcoin track since its birth. Bitcoin will keep always bullish after some bearish, even it can handle big multiple bearish chart.

It'll probably happen. A lot of people are cutting their losses now due to some hacks and some masa pani selling due to FUDs. But I guess right is still good. It's still above the $5,000ish in price and I guess it is the safest price. If it goes below that, then expect bitcoins will reach $1,500.

I think the lowest value is set by the electricity cost of mining a bitcoin - that must be at least $1000.

Depends on the miner but an S9 would be roughly $112 or so per month for a lot of people.

I cannot say that for sure, and I am to afraid to say that. All I just want to say is that we cannot predict the future. Maybe it is true and maybe it is not. Some people will hope that it will happen, because they can buy Bitcoin as much as they can. Some people will hope that it will not happen because they want to make profit as much as possible. And some other people will not care what will happen on Bitcoin because they do not care and have no business with Bitcoin. But whatever happen, I still believe in one thing. The price of Bitcoin will go up no matter what. Sooner or later, we just have to wait.

From today on can european customers buy Bitcoincash on Coinbase!

Some experts say it will drop more, some say it will hit 50k so who knows. I am obviously hoping for the latter but on the other hand, if it does drop that low, might be a good time to buy some more :D

Even though everything is possible, especially in cryptos, I think it is rather unlikely that Bitcoin  would dive until those levels. But it is very probable that it will test the lows again.

Yeah I agree fully, it would take one hell of a move for BITCOIN to take that much damage in one or two days lol

That is right virtual currency has no physical form, but it doesn't mean that bitcoin will fall. There are other factors that make the price of bitcoin is down. Hopefully, it will be normally stable soon. Because it is the effective tool or currency which everything runs to digital.   

Everytime prices of bitcoin falls down, a lot of these so called experts come out and start giving predictions. All they do is instill fear in the minds of others for them to go on panic selling. Just be positive about it and better to buy more since prices are low it will eventually go up.

Being a speculative asset any sort of value drop and growth could happen in a very small time period. It is all about the situation prevailing around the world world as well upon the cryptocurrency exchanges which serve as the backbone to the entire cryptocurrency based operations.

For starters 99% of these “experts” are people who have never traded or even touched cryptocurrency

Your guess as good as mine. No-one can really predict price action. The variables are just too many.

These experts are shit. They don't know bitcoin. They don't know that it costs a lot to dig.
Now some miners mining cost is $5000 COINS, this is the bitcoin of a strong point, if the bitcoin reached $1500, this would be a disaster for the bitcoin, it will not achieve, if the currency reached 1500 dollars, I would sell my house to buy bitcoins

It isn't that bad, unless there is a scenario where Bitcoin gets stuck around that price and nobody can cash their Bitcoins out.

since it those not fall down to 4,000$ in the last few days when their was a massive panic and selling of the coin it will never fall down to that anymore, as you can see it have started regaining it strength already. so i see no possibility that will make it to fall up to 1500$ again.

Bitcoin influences way too much of the market and there are so many bitcoin billionaires I don't see it happening unless they want it to

But now all the experts and governments are talking about Bitcoin which got $350,000,000,000

Yet it can drop up to that value. the reason why bitcoin is dropping because of the sudden increase of bitcoin last december. In my observation this past years. Bitcoin is always dropping or decreasing to very low value every first quarter of the year then bitcoin will rise or regains its high value by the last quarter or the last month of the year. Its very good to invest when bitcoin drops it's value. If you conduct a small research how bitcoin works you will know something on when to buy and when to sell bitcoin.

Guys, the crash from 20k to 8k mightve been a big hit, but you also need to recognise the timespan in which it evolved from 8k to 20k, and that was a matter of 2 months with advertising and hype support across all channels/news... Even IF positive news hit now and the price doesnt instantly hope back to xx k$, it might just imply that the 20k$ were just an overhyped price that corrected to the 7-9k range.. and itll take a few more months and a little more market maturity for btc and the whole market to climb back to former heights naturally.

Just because it doesn't have a physical form like other investments doesn't mean that Cryptos are completely going to crash and those are not the words of experts, Its mostly people being paid by bankers who are saying that bitcoin is going to crash.

Only people who missed buying cheap would write such a bullshit.

I hope it does not, I do not have money to buy bitcoin right now so I will be unable to take advantage of the low prices but it does not seem like it is going to happen, the price seems to have finally reached the bottom and now we have a stable price once again, but this can always change if more bad news regarding bitcoin begin to emerge and if people begin to panic and sell their bitcoin for these low prices.

I don't think it will ever reach that low because there are lots of investors and whales who are waiting for bitcoin to fall down and they will buy in. As we can see, the last time bitcoin hits 6,000$+, it then goes up because for them (investors and whales) it may be the lowest price for bitcoin that they will ever see and so bitcoin rises up to 8,000$.

Bitcoin price is going up now i think it will not reach thqt price.

It comes a point in which bitcoin is so cheap compared to the recent past and its true value that the price cannot drop anymore and as such the whales and different traders begin to buy the coin, since those people have a lot of money they can take advantage very fast of these cheap prices, in fact there are many theories of people that think that most crashes are fabricated and are an attempt of the whales to get their hands in even more bitcoin by shaking the weak hands.

i think those people just speculate regarding bitcoin future and if the cause bitcoin crash is bitcoin have no physical form i think bitcoin will already dead early before growing just like now and i think that reason does not makes sense for me because bitcoin is valuable and everybody agreed about that even though no physical form

Don't believed easily to the news that are coming out. Many of this are only released to create fear on the minds of bitcoin holders and potential bitcoin investor and traders.

Exactly, experts but not experts in the market if you tend to believe those fuds you will lose eventually. It will not fall to the level of 1500$ just create panic in the exchange. And they will buy btc rate at a cheap price.

now tell me wheres those expert youre saying tht predicted bitcoin will fall to $1,500?i think theyre hiding on mamas skirt now,as bitcoin care to return more than $10,000 again after the dip of $6,900 let me know of the experts come  back i will ask for my future lol..bitcoin will never go back to that level thats something i can assure you while bitcoin now is running to $11,000 again

All is just a game of sharks to get all bitcoin of us

It could possibly be true that  BTC price would fall down to $1k level but it is unlikely to happen anytime soon. Understanding the world of crypto means understanding its features, the market price volatility included. If the price falls down to his level, many investors will know that is such a bargain price for something that will be worthy and useful in the future.

Bitcoin market always provide a shocking situation , but I never see a drop more than 1500% . So people should feel secure with that data . We might frequently see a drop price like from $20k down to $10k or even $7k . This is a usual condition that makes Bitcoin volatile.

Whosoever spreading that FUD will just get frustrated because i believe bitcoin's recent dip at 5K USD mark will be its lowest price since it hit the 20K USD mark last December 2017. As we can see, bitcoin rises up again just a couple of days after that mark.

I think its not possible anymore. It gained lot of publicity and there are many investors believing 10000 dollars is even cheap. 1500 dollar price would create madness among investors and quickly pump the price back.

Okay, thanks a lot for sharing probably your own ICO or the one you maybe believe in, or maybe it is even a paid review to spread the gospel of stech to the whole community by going off topic. Moreover, if bitcoin drops that low, what do you think may end up happening to all other alts ?

In case you do not know, a lot of investors and traders look forward to bitcoin being the legacy coin, which is the reason why anything that happens hugely to bitcoin affects other alts badly as well. If I can feel safe with bitcoin, why should I feel safe with any other altcoin that is still in the ICO stage ?

Yeah. Even at around 5k, the whales would already make their move so that 1.5k amount at this point may be close to folly. We're well past that point now and unless btc gets hacked entirely, i don't think we can go that low anymore

If bitcoin were to crash, it would have happened a long time ago and even while we are at the situation of seeing the downtrend, a lot of people would have just dumped if it was just a mere bubble that popped. Of course, some would debate it that bubble does not just pop once, but obviously, anything with a value and usefulness will not just drop huge like that when it has not become useless.

According to Satoshi Nakamoto, it could fall to 0 as in Zero, Zilch, Nada, or Nothing. Do what you will with this info.

$2000 was quite possible if the Bitcoin had Broken $6k support level when bitcoin touched the bottom in feb. But the market manipulators (MMs) can't afford to panic people to this level. And from there the price surge started. Therefore, we can safely assume that MMs won't let the price drop to these levels. Else, everyone will panic sell throwing the price to floor. MMs play with the sentiments and know how to manipulate and to what level.

It is even funny how some people hype themselves by calling themselves an expert and then in the long of it, they end up terribly spewing out rubbish to the whole world, stuff they had better just keep to themselves. I only blame those who listen to them anyway as they are the ones that make them feel relevant. Bitcoin getting to that level obviously shows a lot of weakness already and I do not see how that can ever happen.

Even when it was not going up it would not have reached that level. What happened to support, what happened to those who really bought into bitcoin for the real reasons? I guess we are forgetting all of that and concentrating on some who are busy saying all they feel like saying without any knowledge of what they are talking about or a single clue than just assumptions. $6000 was extremely cheap and I wish those who are still waiting for $1000 the best of luck. Hope they get the best from their waiting.

if bitcoin drops to the price you mention it is a nightmare for investors because they are already buying bitcoins at $ 20k and that will make the investors very depressed because of losing so much money.

No. At this point I'm confident we will never go below $5K ever again.

Who are these people that you call experts? Their reasons doesn't make sense at all. There's absolutely no need for physical form for a currency at this age. Even most governments are already on their way to make their country a cashless society. Physical money is obsolete, everybody agrees that. Your "experts" are definitely not experts.

I am sure they always have their targets as well and the thing is that even with the little that happened and the value of bitcoin breaking below the MA-200 that has been holding it for a while, that started making investors skeptical about the strength in bitcoin's value. Nevertheless, only time will give an answer to that and I am sure a lot of panic would have ensued if we ended up seeing such a scenario playing out where bitcoin ended up hitting the ground nonstop.

Everything can happen, I never worry even though someday bitcoin price = $ 1, and of course this makes us always have to be alert with the latest developments and news because a lot of negative news about bitcoin currently makes a lot of users left.

Who are these experts everyone is talking about?  ::)
What is value of 1 gram of paper? I bet it is under 1$. Now, add some ink on it and write 100$ and you will have 1$ paper worth 100$.
Saying virtual currency will crash because it doesn't have physical form is lack of knowledge.

Point of correction, smart investors does not buy when price is being hiked with no fundamentals backing it and that was what happened.

Most of the people who ended up doing that were the new investors who do not have much knowledge and would not want to miss out and some who just wants to get rich overnight thinking bitcoin will head straight to $1m without any correction. Main investors wait to buy at time that is right like this one as long as it sounds reasonable.

Smart investors do not really buy at all, not beyond what what they have already bought, this theory of dip buying usually only applies to two types of investors. The first is holders who just want to keep it in their bags and add as long as they have money. The second is short term traders just buying every dip, waiting to flip it as soon as price recovers.

Yeah, in the sense that there is no value for it anymore, then that would happen or in the case where everyone is just busy bag holding and no one wants to buy or make use of it for any reason.

However, that is in the normal sense, but at this stage that we are, that does not seem to be possible again. Sure, no one can say what the future holds, and who says we cannot see $1000. The market is volatile and anything is possible, but we are all trying to just be optimistic.

It is not even reasonable at all, most especially since we have been able to break out from a downtrend and all we are trying to find now is some level of support afterwards. If bitcoin wanted getting to that level, it would have gotten to that level a while back but the thing is that some people wait for some ridiculous amount listening to everything they hear and they always end up missing the right moment. Bitcoin will just take its time and afterwards, get back on track.

from the graphic movement I see in bitcoinwisdom (https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/bitfinex/btcusd) there is a possibility the price will go down but hopefully this will not happen because if this happens it will be a lot of no longer trust with bitcoin and assume bitcoin bad.

There are many people who claim themselves as an expert, they differ from each other's prediction. Some only provides FUD that could contribute on the fluctuations. There is a possibility that the bitcoin could fall to that price but ut is unlikely to happen for now.

they claim their selves as an expert because they want to manipulate the price in the market which is they are sharing false prediction and articles to intimidate weak hands .so that after they can buy also in dip when the price drop, and actually that is the common ways and effective strategy of some fud's,  and i hope this will be a good lesson for those who panic sell  without knowing if its a bluff or fact news.

youre head will crash first before bitcoin does,suck you fud issue maker should shut up your mouth and stop doing this trash kind of post.you dont care what would be the effect in market and investors,what you only concern is what pays you.

I don't which experts are sitting there which are making such stupid speculations and spreading rumors that it will fall to such low level like $1000-$1500 which is not possible at all and you need to make some research before believing all this stuff and then reach any decision.

That is true. There are too many so-called experts that consider that they can predict the price of Bitcoin. Initially, BTC price cannot be foreseen. It is impossible.

I dont believe on speculation some saying price might hit to that level. Bitcoin will soon hit to ath maybe this coming months and it will adapts by many users. So many fuds that they wants to buy at lower price.

It would mean more than 10x crash from the last ATH, which is not impossible, but very unlikely. Looks like the recovery may take a long time (probably more than a year), but the possibility of bitcoin going below $2k is very low.

A lot of people are claiming to be experts even though they don't have the slightest idea of how the market works. So it's advisable to disregard these predictions and just trust your own studies and instincts. I don't even know what good they'll get from spreading fuds lol

Can you please include the source material - I would like to read the article of such 'expert'.

Do you know that 95% (or even more) of fiat money circulation has no physical form either? It is only a number in the memory of computers.
How is Bitcoin different from that? I think we are past the argument that not only physical goods can be worth something already.

Bitcoin will never hit at 1500 $ to many people are waiting to buy so many BTC at this price, i think it could be the less betwin 5K or 6K dollars good entry point.

I don't think those experts prediction doesn't hold water because they didn't provide any substantial evidence to show there claim that the Bitcoin and crypto currency in general value will decline that low.

Well by that logic even PP funds square measure a virtual currency so even paypal funds square measure paltry af

Bitcoin had a 94% crash in 2011, from $32 to $2.

So yes it is historically possible to have a crash like that. In our case, it would go from $20k to around $1000, touching even the three-digit area.

But see how much it had grow from 2011 to now. If bitcoin survived such a crash in a very obscure time, when it was in its infancy, what can we say of today, with all the development going on, and even governments considering to store it in its reserves?

$20k to $32 is 625x more money. Can you imagine bitcoin in seven years? Just do the math. And we dont need to have more volume for that, as the recent crash proved that 10% of the total volume can move the market up or down.

For me, it is not possible given that dumps are just temporary so as such it gives an idea that the market will soon recover and the dumps won't go that far. But still, things are way unpredictable when it comes to the market volatility. We don't know what will happen on the other day so holding until the price of it stabilizes would be a much necessary thing to do.

Maybe it will , but only when people invent something better which will make bitcoin obsolete. But it won't happen that soon IMO

Yes I think it will not fall to the $1500, many who loves to use bitcoin and still supports when in down. It will not always were in down trend. I think bitcoin can recover but not today soon it will.

Well, they conjecture the prices of bitcoin that it may fall $1,XXX and they calling themselves as experts. But decreasing of bitcoin prices are normal if you check the history. I hope bitcoin price will not go down at $5,XXX so bitcoin can recover easily.

The only possibility is that when many are going to take profits at the same time and that will make the supply becomes more in the economy and circulation that will make the price goes down quickly. @fabiorem stated that historically it can happened and it is even worst way back then and to compare to that day then it's possible. But I don't really think that it will happen since we went through one of the biggest correction so it's now time for bitcoin to start going up again.

Can you give a link to the article or at least name those experts that says something like that? Because those are not really reasons, if that was the case then no one will accept credit or debit cards after all those are actual currencies with no physical form as well, they are just a representation of something physical but are not physical currencies themselves.

nobody knows what will happen in the future, bitcoin prices are hard to predict and that's the bitcoin greed, maybe for now the bitcoin price will continue to fall but I hope the bitcoin will rise soon and have a high price again

dont believe everything you hear, if you would do that you will only fail here in cryptocurrency business. Everything that you hear is all speculations.  No one as nobody can predict what will be the price in the coming times.  But i am pretty sure the price will rise when we least expect it.

you should know that in this cryptocurrency, in fact all possibilities can occur, the price could be able to return to the price of $ 100 even worse it could happen if the condition of bitcoin was not too profitable and bitcoin was useless then the fall in prices could have happened, and yes Cryptocurrency like bitcoin has a very high risk.

I believe this price reduction is still not over, it will continue to be sustainable, but for up to $ 1800 I don't think that is possible, too much negative news and speculation that is not necessarily the truth prediction, we better just stay and wait until the price increase occurs

Yes I know bitcoin crashes, and it doesn't happen once or twice it can be said to be very frequent, but in the end he will keep returning more fit than before. If we weigh from a large number of users, tens of thousands of bitcoins buried in the hard drive due to forgotten passwords or hard drives threw in the trash. I think $1.800 - $1.500 is a very impossible value and that's not fundamental.

Up and down is normal in any crypto can happen, but for bitcoin it will drop to $ 1k hard to believe. now bitcoin is stable between 8k to 5k $ it will be very shocking that there will even be big news if it reaches a decrease of $ 1k

Bitcoin has pretty strong support at 5500-6000$, so if we did not heard any bad news in remaining time of this year, Bitcoin price should stay calm or even go up because Bitcoin price always raises and then goes down.

Don't believed easily on what other people are saying. Because it will give you negative perception on bitcoin. Bitcoin is still strong so don't worry too much.

There are more users and holders of Bitcoin compared to 2 years ago when price of Bitcoin was down to 3 digits. More people are using it, more merchants accepting it. So going back to $1800 or $1500 is quite impossible to say unless there's too many confirmed negative news that will hurt Bitcoin and its price.

Bitcoin will not sink so low in its price. The price bottom of bitcoin has long since passed.
In order to be widely used as a means of payment, bitcoin need not necessarily have a physical form. There are various non-cash forms of settlements that do not have a physical form of money. Therefore, as a payment system bitcoin and other crypto currency can quite work and in its usual virtual form.

I don't think bitcoin will fall to that level because that's a little too low for bitcoin to not attract others to invest at that market price. As we can see, when bitcoin has fallen down to 5,000$ mark, people are getting crazy buying on that price that's why its market price will also rise again immediately.

we don't know what will happen in the future. but we hope that doesn't happen, well, the price is also so low. but I feel that the price of bitcoin will reach a high price in the future. no one expects the price of bitcoin to reach that price.

No way it ever goes that low again.

I don't know where such speculations come from. Anything is possible when it comes to bitcoin but current situation on the market doesn't show such trend that would make the price to go so low. Of course that we always have to have in mind bitcoin volatility but there is no room for panic.

It has gone from low to high and it is possible to go from high to low, nothing is absolutely impossible. According to the situation now, $6000 is probably the lowest price and it will be hard to fall below this price.

Share the link so we can laugh on the face of those so called experts that think bitcoin is going to crash just because it lacks physical form, if that was the case then how it is possible to use credit cards and debit cards that are nothing but numbers on a screen as money? Those experts should feel ashamed of their ignorance and their lack of knowledge about the world.

I don't think so... Do you mentioned, when BTC coming to 6k$ Tether prints 15kk-250kk tethers? It means they never let BTC down below 5500-6000

If bitcoin ever falls remotely close to those value quoted by as little as 2000$. I will sell most of my offline assets and buy as much as I can, they days of 1500$ bitcoins are gone for good.

This will most likely not happen since the whales won't simply back down from one of the best financial opportunities of this century. Bitcoin will most likely never go back to 1000$ levels ever again and am expecting it reach 20000$ by the end of this year which is why I am investing and giving tip to my friends for holding as if they want some good and healthy profit from this.

If the BTC price drops to 1500, there will be a major recession in the mining sector.
But based on "what is bitcoin" as far as I know and with all that has happened I think it's likely that prices won't go down that far.

Lol. Experts eh, more like rumor mongers who don't have an idea of what they're talking about or would just like to manipulate weaklings into panicking. Anyone who'd be affected with these predictions need to study crypto a little  more.

I think there are a lot of bad rumors and fuds that deliberately destroy the value of bitcoin. in fact, that doesn't happen and bitcoin is always able to survive you can see bitcoin still has a very high selling value even though its value has dropped by almost more than half.

Definitely? Seems you are so sure of your prediction already. This will be like any other fork and what makes you think it will be so different? You can as well just dump what you have so that some of us can have some little profit to play around with.

If anything should have happened to bitcoin, major impact would have been the August fork, there doesn't seem to be too much debate on this, although so many developments are going on without consensus but I had rather see this as just another profit making method after having another forked chain. Hope it gets pumped like BCC too (no offence).

Anyything is possible in the market.Although we do not know what will happen in the future but if we see the current position of Bitcoin in the market we can say that Bitcoin will not fall to this much of level.Its price is rising slowly and steadily and it has started doing well in the market.The investors are now happy because they are receiving decent amount of profits now after the rise in price.More and more people are also enrolling themselves in Bitcoin.

Anyone can be said to be an expert, if they are rich and have long been involved in the investment however, what they invest it seems not to cryptocurrency, but to other commodities for example, stocks, bonds or other. So they don't have the slightest experience in cryptocurrency investment. For me whatever he says it's obligatory for us to call it FUD because of what he says clearly not fundamental and we don't need to respond.

No one can say how far Bitcoin will fall and how far high it can go. Time will only tell as you can see that in 2011 time no one knowed that in 2017 the price will be nearby $20k when the price was in 1$ and below. So if you have dead investment then you can do it in bitcoin.

I think that's way too low of a level for bitcoin to touch down. As we can see 5,000$ is the all time low price for bitcoin this year but it never step down below than that yet as new comer investors also took the chance of investing while its market price is low.

Those stupid that you so called “experts” are the suckers in this community that only waits for the market to fall down so they can purchase from the bottom and just like you who’s spreading their words are helping them to succeed

Bitcoin will never fall that low because the market still having the true supporters of cryptocurrency specially bitcoin and with that market will stand and make us richer in future

Lol this just looks like a lie to crash the prize and buy in again on a low prize.
Bitcoin don't need the physical aspects ! Its allways planned as virtual currency and working nice until now.






kind regards

Until now the price of the bitcoin is still more than 6000 dollars and I don't thinl this year it will become 1800 or 1500 dollars. Maybe in the future it will happen. But fotr now bitcoin still become stronger and the price will increase again.

Right the price will not go down that deep, after all we have reached the lowest price this year. what you hear is speculation from people who want to see the price of bitcoin go deeper and benefit them. I can guarantee that the lowest price is $6k and if you don't take advantage of this moment you will be disappointed..
