Bitcoin break past the $8,000 mark. Do you think the price of Bitcoin will break the $10,000 mark sooner? Will it be worth it to get more bitcoin at this price?

Apart from price rise, what I liked in recent days is that BTC dominance share in global crypto market has increased - from 40% to 47% somewhere..
That`s the better sign then just price increase of BTC.
More dominant BTC will attract corporate funds more easily and quickly, then alt part of crypto, which is full of scam and useless coins.

The left and right positive reviews will attract more investors onboard.  I hope Bitcoin reaches the $10,000 mark sooner. Exciting period for cryptocurrencies!!!  :o :o :o

break it? may be not.
reach it? most possibly yes.

if you look at the last two times we had such rises, the price went back to very close $10k price but came down again.
my theory is that bitcoin real price is $10k and it has always been like it, specially if you look at the first time it was broken and price dropped below it. so it is trying to get back to reality again.
but since we have had $5700-$6000 as the bottom there is still some fear in the market which brings it back down and the manipulators love it too.

eventually we will break it though it may take longer.

If there's no bad things will occur on bitcoins then most provably the big rally will continue and $10,000 is reachable but we cannot expect this to occur right now since july month nearly ends. Maybe August is the right time for bitcoin go up since the big news gonna happen by this month and maybe it could bring more good news once bitcoins and cryptocoins been approved.

That $10,000 mark has always been the psychological breaking point of Bitcoin. Indeed, It will be reached but I believe much sooner than expected due to its proven historical trend, media hype reviews, wide adaptation and more institutional money getting in to join the battle.  :D :D :D

probably 10k has a chance to reach .but in my opinion maybe not on this month which is IMO perhaps on August it's either on mid or before end also, but unless if there's no issue occur again that will interrupt on bitcoin growth rate. 'cause for sure not just 10k has a tends maybe 15k as well but it depends.

I think this bitcoin will break through the $10,000 mark and need the ETF as a support point. If the ETF can pass the review, then I think Bitcoin will win a new high in six months!

There's a chance that we can get to that price because of the positive news from the ETF. I'm looking at a similar pattern last year when the Winklevoss brothers applied for a Bitcoin ETF and we see the price skyrocketed. So a strong possibility that it will. So we have to wait and see what the SEC final decision will be on Aug 10th. As far as investing more bitcoin at the current price, yes, if you want to take advantage of the current pump then get as much as you can. And comes Aug 10th, make the decision to either continue to hold (if the ETF is approved), or sell (if its denied).

Most of the cryptocurrency analyst are expecting for the price of bitcoins to reach $50k dollars before the year ends because there are more people today who are capable of investing due to legalization of bitcoins or cryptocurrency in other countries.

$10,000 is a psychological barrier where various outcomes are possible.

It could be that it is a point at which we will start correcting, but it could also trigger a relief pump to around $11,000 shortly after. If we happen to reach these levels well before the SEC's decision, I'll short Bitcoin without waiting what the SEC will come up with, because I don't think there is much more to gain than a price slightly over $10,000 (give or take 5-10%) with how this ETF even if approved won't go live this year.

In other words, make sure that you sell the news before the news comes out.

8k dollars is the price and 10k dollars sooner and before end of this month will be possible and if it's not happen this july in the month of august It's 100 percent sure happen. If you have extra money now you will buy more bitcoin and get more money after few weeks or months.

yess, i am bullish they will approve bitcoin ETF but not in this year. they don't want to be blamed in congress when something going wrong.
SEC need time to build regulation for bitcoin ETF to protect institutional investor money if they will join in this crypto space

No way to tell right now, what we know is that bitcoin is pretty strong now, bulls are in full control unless we lose 7200$ which is really far away. Some healthy consolidation is expected and needed, which is what is going on right now. Next big step is 9k

Sooner than what? Or did you mean soon? It will probably take a while, if the etf gets passed on the 10th of august then the price is going to be booming, if not we might even not touch the 10k by the end of the year.

8k USD is the expected few weeks before but now we reached that trade mark value what everyone expected now everyone wants bitcoin to touch 10k USD like going in a bull run. I do not think that this is a bull run or kind of that. For investors and traders this may be the good time and can be able to invest on the bitcoin and altcoins, accordingly you will be able to get the profit with that buddy.

And you know this based on what exactly? ''without any loss to your investments.'' Without losses? DAMN you must be a time traveler to know all this. There is no way to know what's going to happen in a month, you can make educated guesses (certainly not an exact price/date like you did) but that's about it. It is ''stable'' above 8100$? It has been above 8k for only 1 day, why would you call that stable?

The price will definitely hit the $10,000 mark once again before the year ends, the price is on a continuous rise and I think in my own opinion, the price will not only reach upto $10k but will even exceed at the price that you are very much expecting, there will definitely be incoming spikes, be ready, especially for the traders.

If there's no time indicated on when it would be then I'm sure that we will hit that mark soon. That's a the safer way of predicting some prices by not putting any dedicated date.

As always, if you can buy bitcoin at the current rate why not? this has been asked many times and if you have been worried that the price is quite too high.

Just think on how high it will be when you started buying at $10,000.

If the ETF is passed, $10k is easy.

I believe that bitcoins will actually surpass $10k dollars because people are now starting to invest again and the price right now is pumping up and everyone is hoping that it constantly increase up to december.

yes soon. but it is hard to believe that we will get that level in this year.
but it is possible when SEC approve bitcoin ETF. but i am pessimistic they will aprove it in this year.

I believe it is easy to raise $10k sooner. With etf, bitcoin is possible to raise further so while price is not yet $10k it is still a good chance to have bitcoin this time.

Thank you for your great analysis based on nothing. First of all ETF's are going to get postponed over and over again so this small bull break we had thanks to ETF FUD might not last. In the unlikely event that ETF is passed this next month, then sure Bitcoin might get a shot to hit 10k however, always remember that, you buy the rumors and sell the news.

If the price is touching the $ 10000 barrier, it is unlikely that it will fall below that price "in the short term at least."
In previous times, the top price was below $ 1,000 "9800" at the last time, so the price did not break the 10,000 barriers and therefore did not settle in that range.
Some look at ETF as a decisive point in the short term after either the price rises to $ 10,000 or is due to $ 6,000.
Overall ETF's decision will affect the short term.

This limited consideration [Price] reduces the possibilities of this technology

Bitcoin price is going to reach that point easily most especially if the ETF approved $10k is nothing that we should be rooting for is the former ATH of $20k if things run smoothly with the trading price and its fluctuations, however, let's say it did not get approved from the said date for example then expect to have some downtrends from that news.

Pre-ETF = I don't think that we can breached the $10K mark.
Post-ETF = If is gets approved then obviously, just matter of days before the $10K can be broken and we can even see a exponential growth. However, if its gets rejected, the price could suddenly make a free fall to as low as $6K again. That's why we need to watch out for SEC decision next month and see how it will affect the market in the next coming months.

I think it might take a while because now the price of getting stabilized at the $8000 level and it looks more promising growth so the investors will have much trust to invest on the  bitcoins for now.But many people saying we may see some fireworks in the next month so let's wait and see what is going to happen.

I think btc will stabilize around the 8k level.  Those waiting to buy in cheaper will not get their chance to buy.  It's only a matter of time before the run back to 20k starts again.  It really just depends how much patience you have as an investor.  If you are willing to wait a few years you are at least going to double your money.  Doubling your money in the stock market within a few years is spectacular but in the crypto world it's not that special, we have been spoiled.

We are re-testing the pre-ETF pump right now, I guess we'll go for a double bottom. Still many noobs on board. The next ETF will also not pass and news will be sold as usual, which means that we may retest $7100, as measured by the current resistance line starting at $5774.7 - $6100ish (Bitstamp)

Until we clear out all the noobs that think ETF and other gov derived inventions matter in Bitcoin, we'll have these speculative swings.

We are expecting another bull run any moments from the end of this week according to historical data.  Bitcoin has move significantly for the past few days and getting to $10,000 is just the matter of time.  Many good news are line up from now till December and those news are going to actually influenced the market

I think so. I believers Bitcoin can surpass the $10,000 mark this year. In fact, analysts have forecasted far nore than that and so I think we can reach there in no time. By the way the non acceptance of the ETF by the SEC has affected us though.

Without any doubt but I don't know when it will reach that mark soon.
Depends on your satisfaction.

When do you want to get more bitcoin? when it gets all time high? so before going there, make sure you have it now.

go for it, i think weve seen the lowest it could go, and after the ETF decision still stayed at $8k above, bitcoin has been oversold for long now, i think its the right time to fill the bags again....

I think it is so better to buy more Bitcoin now before the price will start to rise up. Most of the predictions by most of the famous experts says that the price of Bitcoin will reach the last year ATH again in which we are already in the month of August with few months left for this year to end so i think those predictions will start to happen anytime now.

Re-testing the short term uptrend line right now (trace a line from $6072 dip in Bitstamp which you will see that the current red candle is sitting right there). If said line doesn't hold, then we are dumping back to $6500-$7000, I would buy the dip there, if it doesn't hold then we may still have many noobs that don't deserve to hold bitcoin and these must be removed before we continue going higher.

Personally I think it was needed to have a small downtrend to cool off the daily RSI. There was no room for more bullish action without significant news with that overextended RSI. Now that it's cooled off a little bit, we might see another bull move. Personally I'm watching the 7200$ level and I use Bitfinex, much better than Bitstamp.

It's going to happen sooner or later, and we all are aware of that, but it has ALWAYS been matter of time, the same is happening since late 2014, just need more patience

Sooner bitcoin will become 10k dollars and Im expect this month probably will hit that. But before that happen I think we need to buy more bitcoin to follow other people to invest to. More money to come if we have more bitcoin.

$10000 is the complete focus of each and every user, but the reality hasn't taking place as predicted. The market seems quite weird today with sudden changes. Whether it is a manipulation or some form of growth initiation is impossible to predict. Possibly a small time is required for a bigger pumping. Every year august has made a big change in the market, this time too that needs to take place.

I agree with that. After a few more months of considation, the price will rise again.

Keeping in view that the Bitcoin is not a stable currency and situation changes with the passage of time so it is not confirmed and not necessary that the price movement will be like last year price movement but follow the current situations. If the buying rate increases in the upcoming days then it is clear that Bitcoin will go higher than any highest possible value as we know that it has a lot of potential and strength.

We do not have to wait a few months, maybe it will happen this month. Everything can not be predicted, in July the bitcoin price rose $ 2,000 and who knows what will happen in August. ;D

Bitcoin is anticipated to raise $10k soon, it is also anticipated to drop to $5k as well, it is also expected to reach $50k by the end of the year, it is also expected to drop to $3k by the end of the year. You can't really anticipate anything on bitcoin, it is really just a wild swing of a guess at this moment, bitcoin is just doing whatever it wants to do and we are just watching it do what it does. We cant really ever know what it will do, its insane that even the professionals are always wrong and only right rarely.

But unfortunately today we are experiencing again a downfall which may last up to $7600  levels of support zones. I am expecting a shark rise rally after that which may lead to $10k levels in a single trend. Yes, wait for more good things from bitcoins from this August onward.

It is showing great resilience against the ETF rejections, so I think yes.

I believe that the price of bitcoins will pump up again this december just like what happened last year so the $10k dollar will be surpassed and that is the reason why you should hold your coins today.

yes you are right bitcoin prices will soon make a price increase so you should prepare yourself as best as possible to be able to buy as much bitcoin as you can because bitcoin prices have the potential to become very expensive by the end of this year.

I think bitcoin will reach 10000$ but only in September. I think now again someone try to lower price as much as possible to buy more cheap bitcoin and make a good profit when reach 10000$.

There is 0 reason to think that it will follow what happened last year. All the hype last year was different, first of all, bitcoin was escaping a 3 year bear trend, also the upcoming fork helped a lot with volume and people buying into bitcoin, after that it was pumped by the masses because of FOMO (fear of missing out) everyone was buying at any price. Something like that wont happen again unless we break 20k, even if we break 10k people won't FOMO like the last year because instead of having fear of missing out they will have fear of crashing again seeing how bitcoin crashed already 3 times after small bull runs this year.

I don't think that it is a prospect in the next few months.

Given enough time though, it's a no brainer. But $10k, as both the major resistance, and a huge psychological barrier, is most likely only going to be hit once the recovery starts, which could be a while. I'm fairly sure that you're asking this question in the context of the "near future", so no. The bearish sentiment continues to dominate the markets at the moment.

That said, I do think that it is a great opportunity to stock up on coins or long positions on BTC right now, because prices are extremely cheap I believe if you look at the bigger picture here. Start buying regularly right now in bearish conditions is definitely a good idea.

If we talked about "sooner" then there is really a chance. For when, no one knows but it's a realistic thing to think that the price will hit and breached the $10,000 mark again. People really used to speculate a high price expectation everytime there is a sudden price increase to the point that they take they away some pointers before speculating it.

What matters here is, no matter when it will happened, there are lots of reasons to believed that it will really occur again. It's good that the price is not taking a quick leap to test it's resistance at every price level. It's way better than pushing to the moon on a fast phase.


If you understand and can handle the risks then go buy bitcoin at the current price rate. It's up to you if you will wait for more price decrease. No one can tell you here on what price should you buy as everyone have different approach and strategy on when they will buy bitcoin.

''because prices are extremely cheap'' compared to what? I don't really understand people saying that, it's a meaningless thing to say. Was the price cheap when it crashed to 10k from 20k? Who decides when you can call it cheap? It's only cheap if bitcoin reaches 50k, it's not cheap if bitcoin never goes above 10k ever again.

When we say $10k, definitely  yes but if we say for $20k could less possible. We knew already the trend of market today and we all expecting that it won't go far enough to be the same in the last year trend. Even though how optimistic we are,  we never think it climb up high as market goes slowly increasing.

Good luck to get the Bitcoin price going to $10,000. And the ETF is not going to change a lot, no matter what is the SEC decision. Even if the ETF is accepted the Bitcoin price will increase yes, but only for some days or 2-3 weeks. After what, we will see it going down to what it is today. And if the ETF is rejected, you can say goodbye to the $10,000, Bitcoin may go as low as $6,000

As we were in the starting days of the month, it is predicted by lots of experts that the price will cross the $10000 by the ongoing week. To the expectation things has taken place in the opposite manner with bitcoin value falling low, maybe this price drop can also serve as the starting of the forward price push.

I really think BTC can cross 10k in this month, with all the confidence I see in the market. The more important question: will the alts follow Bitcoin or not?

I think that Jeanson1209 already know the answer when Bitcoin fell down again back below the 8,000$ level. As of right now BTC is priced at 7,574$ which is further to 10,000$ again. But to answer Jeanson1209's question I think there is no better time to buy then now compared to what you are asking before when BTC was priced at 8,000$ and above. If you have bought BTC during that high level you have no choice but to hodl it as there are no clear signs that BTC will short below 7,000$ and will go back to 6,000$.

For now the increase to $10k will not happen quickly. The market will still hold the current value for the next few days and I do not see any movement in the graphics to increase in the near future.

An expert give such speculation that bitcoin can surely reach the $10k price but it will be not possible to cross from here. Also it is still doubtful to believe because experts are not on the same track, they have different analysis regarding the price of bitcoin for this. So better not to fully rely on them but rather make your own research to feed yourself with an information and analysis coming from your own understanding on this.

If that happens and we again break the $6000 mark, we will test $5000 shortly after. It will then look exactly like how the market corrected after the bull run in 2013. The similarities grow stronger every month.

The bull run of 2013 peaked over $1000 and bottomed out at $150. The bull run of 2017 peaked at $20,000 and may bottom out at $3000. This obviously is assuming it will follow the same path.

$5000 seems realistic with an ETF rejection and I'll happily buy that level. I'll probably buy it pretty hard instead of being conservative. We may not get another opportunity so we better make the best out of it.

I do not think that it is true. To me I think that bitcoin price will increase its price and will very soon reach to 10k, but it will not stay here, but will continue increasing its price, I think that it is very much expected and most of the big investors and experts are agree with that bitcoin price is hopefully going to reach to 20000$ in last month of 2018.

I am expecting a rise within the month of September when I wrote everything I wrote earlier. I'm telling you again. It will be a short-term move in September. this move will not last long but it will be an act that makes investors happy. it makes sense to invest in bitcone now. I foresee an increase of between 30% and 45%. ie at 10k-12- levels during the months of October to September. I think the future of the current year to the end of the current sevice again.

The move may actually be getting pretty close if we are able to succeed to not end up forming another lower low and the bulls can still struggle their way up a little bit. For what it is worth, most altcoins are already beginning to show some good sign of growth and let's hope we will get to see them make some good move upward in coming days which could also usher in some move upward for bitcoin as well. I still feel $10k is still worth paying attention to anyway but time will show us.

Well these experts have their own ways of how they come up with figures though it's funny why they all have different predictions and if you look back, they don't always hit the spot. Have your own speculations, it's as good as the experts' 😋

everything is not what you think, yesterday the price of bitcoin has reached $ 8500 but in just some time the price of bitcoin has dropped to the price of $ 7600. and the price of bitcoin now drops below $ 7k.

On the other way around when it was declined completely then $10k is hard to achieve this August, with the recent news it keeps on dropping back to $7k, too early to anticipate or expect that it will increase up to $10k, ETF is not yet approved by the SEC, we don't even know if bitcoin will going to reach that price when it was approved only time will tell when and how it's going to be.

but there is still a lot of time for bitcoin to show us that it has still a lot of power to move to the price of 10k, for me speculations about pump could become true in near months.

It's going beyond the limit this time with too many pumps and dumps but the bottom line will be the result of bull market which can start anytime and until then I believe we will see more fluctuations in the market.
