Title: Should we expect another bull market these coming months (2018)? I think so.
Post by: ezelom on September 04, 2018, 06:17:04 PM
It was December, 2017. The price of one Bitcoin rose to nearly $20,000. To burst your bubbles, when the mysterious and elusive creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, released the cryptocurrency in 2008/09, its value was basically nothing. Bitcoin was being giving out for hobby purposes. Interest was very small in a very big way!

As at March 2010, one Bitcoin averaged $0.003 (0.3 Cent). Then it hit nearly $20,000 in 8 years. That's over 666 million percent appreciation. It made a couple of people who bought it for a couple of Cent overnight millionaires in Dollar terms.  

Then Bitcoin fell to $6,000, resulting in potential loss to those who bought into the bull market of 2017. Well, you don't lose until you sell at a price lower than your buying price. That's why I called it potential.

Are we expecting another bull market in the crypto market? Are we expecting the price of Bitcoin (and other cryptos) would appreciate significantly in coming months? I think so. And such expectations have a valid ground.

I believe another bull market is imminent because institutional money is coming to the crypto market around November.  

Let me explain:

The Intercontinental Exchange, the operator behind the New York Stock Exchange, the world's largest stock exchange, has announced that it is creating a new company called Bakkt that will hold and manage people’s cryptocurrency.

The platform will be powered by Microsoft cloud tech and plans to begin with trading and converting Bitcoin to US Dollars and other fiat (government-backed) currencies as “Bitcoin is today the most liquid digital currency.”

Moreover, the 149-year-old Goldman Sachs, one of the biggest investment banks in the US, announced plans to open a Bitcoin trading operation and Nasdaq, the second-largest stock exchange in the world recently said it would “consider becoming a crypto exchange over time.”

SIX, the operator of Swiss stock exchange also has plans to build a trading platform for transactions associated with Bitcoin and established digital coins and tokens.

The TMX Group, which runs the Toronto Stock Exchange, has announced its own cryptocurrency brokerage service earlier this year.

JP Morgan, the largest American bank, whose CEO, Jamie Dimon, once called Bitcoin a fraud is now changing tune, and even now seems to have an actual Blockchain research centre.

If you look at the top 15 global banks, most of them seem to have dabbled in Blockchain this year.

With these big guys, Microsoft, New York Stock Exchange, top global banks and traditional exchanges embracing crypto and blockchain, chances of the U. S.  Securities and Exchange Commission approving Bitcoin-based Exchange-Traded Fund would be significantly enhanced, leading to an even deeper adoption globally. In fact, Bill Barhydt, chief executive of Bitcoin payment start-up Abra believes SEC would approve Bitcoin ETF by 2019.

There are so many other examples of institutional adoption. So you can see cryptocurrencies are going mainstream as institutional investors and the big guys embrace them.

Cryptocurrency market have attract so many people that are interested in cryptocurrency that want to know how blockchain technology works but pretend to be cryptocurrency enemy by saying it is a bubble just to bring the market down. I am not of the school of taught that believe that cryptocurrency follow the same trend every year. The bull run will come as a result of events related to cryptocurrency this year.

The possibility is there since there are lots of speculations that history could possibly repeat itself. There are lots of people who missed bitcoin's bullrun last year. So some who missed last year's phenomenon will try their luck this year. I am one of them so I'm hoping that those speculations will be realized by the end of the year or the next year. We just have to wait what the future will bring.

4th quarter is the most expected one in this year with the big price expectation. I believe we will find the bitcoin price will be bumped in sometime. If you hold on the coins and allow price for some months.
It will be much useful for the people whoever waiting for price bump to sell their BTC to make profit. I have fund with me but I am holding it for long term.

I also believe it's just a matter of time before it increases in value again.

Some firms believe that it will rise three times it's current value by the end of the year along with Ethereum that is something we have yet to see. But something we can be 100% is that it's value per year will always be higher than the year before.

And it is normally a big % in gains. Unless someone bought during the spike before the crash, of course.

I don’t tie the timing of the bull run to the bull run of last year (2017) at all; I tie it to positive movements and activities surrounding crypto.

Global news - not foreseeable. Therefore, large players will try to change the trend in every possible way. News resources are in their hands, so it is possible that they will be able to change people's opinion.

very detailed what you share, indeed at the end of this year the opportunity is still wide open to rise towards ATH again with the current turmoil very well with public confidence in the market, the more convinced everyone is so fast to save more coins to get good profits if indeed pumping occurs at the end of this year, just wait for the trip that we have been waiting for, hopefully we can make the best use of it.

I don't think the crypto market will experience any kind of bull market within the remaining months of this year. The market price of bitcoin for the past days now has seen to achieve some percentage of increase but this does not mean another bull market is coming.

It is highly possible that another bull market in the coming month. The market price of bitcoin has seen some significant increase in the latter part of august. I believe the bull run of the cryptocurrency will be starting very soon.

We haven't experienced a bull run yet at least this year. So everybody is expecting to have a bull market anytime in the last quarter. Even if it's not as bullish as the other year but surpassing the $10K mark is already good enough to others who bought bitcoin at around $6K.

Yeah.. We might have the experience of last December repeating itself. A bull market is most likely to come because price have been on the increase since it left $6,500. I'm expecting that it keeps building up gradually .

I eagarly waiting and expects the value will be bumped more in the market in this year end or at the Christmas time as previous shows the same kind of move will be expected more in the market.
When the more adoption over the bitcoin and altcoins side this expected value will be go bigger in the market.
Next year starting again we may find dump like this year.

there aren't any more institutional money coming in than it ever was coming in before. that part is still the same. and bitcoin doesn't need that to rise! in fact the institutional money coming in  may not even lead to a rise, it may even bring more manipulation and "price swings" instead of rise due to adoption.

the only thing i can see to be decent may be Bakkt but i am still not sure, since this is US and they have a way with their centralization and regulations.

as for others like Goldman Sachs and other stock exchanges ,... saying something about their interest in the market  doesn't mean much. and some of the cases like JP Morgan that you mentioned here has nothing to do with bitcoin! they are looking into the blockchain technology and probably will create their own altcoin soon.

as for the title, a solid bull run can only take place after the ETF deadline. doesn't matter what happens to the ETF, whether they reject it or approve it the rise will happen afterwards because the drama of it will be over by then. and the market has been waiting for this rise a long time.

There is a big chance that another bull run will take place within the coming months since this is what history and trends will show. But this year's run may not be as aggressive as it was in 2017. But prices will gradually rise towards end of the year. One thing that we should be optimistic about.

I am very confident that bitcoin will break last years records in 2 months time. I wish a had millions of dollars to invest in bitcoins, I would have been a trillionaire by January. However, I am stilling holding to the few buck I have, I am not selling till I bitcoin hit the mark again.

there is a high chance but I guess it is not like before that the price will reach the top maybe if there will be a bull run this year the price will be around 10k to 12k but the 20k last year is impossible to happen this year.

I'm not expecting it to hit the mark it did last year but hope it'll really break atleast the $10k mark. The rates on the past few months is so depressing as we've experienced being millionaires to billionaires last December  ;D

I suggest not to make any plans regarding your expenses made by the profits from cryptocurrencies and not expect a certain price level at least for this year. Prices will rise, it's inevitable, however predicting the xact time frame right now is almost impossible to do.

Yeah many factors affects bitcoin price.
But i'm sure it's the whales factor, someone who owns hundred thousands bitcoin absolutely can rule the price by selling the into several markets.

It just fell off and we need to wait for other months to get back your loss today, or cutloss instead. But, for some reasons, I believe that in the end of the year it will pump

I still think the next bull run won't come because of how much fresh capital is entering the cryptosphere from institutional investors, I believe the trigger to the next big rally will be the next phase of adoption, when merchants aaround the world begin to embrace cryptocurrencies as form of payment.

Cryptocurrencies are going mainstream but only from a institutional adoption perspective, for now, but what we need is the general public applying more buying pressure into the market thanks to adoption. Financial institutions don't care about adoption, they're trying to enter the market to manipulate it and take profits from it, that's not what we need if we want Bitcoin to keep growing.

One thing that needs to be noted is that blockchain =/= Bitcoin. It's cool that they're looking for applications, but that doesn't mean they're bullish of Bitcoin in the least. The Bitcoin trading stuff are definitely a plus for adoption, but I feel like I've heard those plans before and it doesn't look like they've had much of an impact.

The same as what I'm thinking men. I have trust on bitcoin that's why I know that in the end of the monthn of this year, the value og bitcoin will increase higher. Hope those investor have lost her profin in investing bitcoin, they won't stop investing.

Same thinking here because we are comparing on what happen last year 2017 that before the year end the value of bitcoin was rising up to $20,000 so that we expect before this year 2018 end we wish that bitcoin will rise again like happen last year. We hope that all our lose this last few months we gain again before the year end.
