In the first place, the price of Bitcoin is volatile thats why we cannot predict the price if it goes down or rises. But one thing we know is that, unless there are investors and investments in Bitcoin, it will stay on track. Investors are also one of the main reasons why there are ups and downs. When investors sell their assets and others follow when there is a dump and vice versa

Because a very large number of BTC coins are in the hands of a cartel, which now continues to buy a very large number of coins, and these manipulations with the market are definitely being done for a reason.

Because the market is still young and volatile. It is manipulated by big whales, that have bought Bitcoin for several cents and they are now trying to reach the deepest point and to drop people from the market to gain higher profits for themselves.

It's not "still unpredictable" but "never predictable". If everyone can predict the market, it will be not "the market". Maybe someone have a right prediction, but whether they are right with 100% in anytime. And I see all predictions are a FOMO or FUD behavior.

When people's intention behind investment is to become overnight rich or to earn very high rates of returns; there no one is able to predict what way the price will move. 
Speculators are very much active in such markets.  They may carry to market to their desired directions. Several others outside factors like economic conditions; Bank's interest rates etc may also affect the price movements.  So no predictions can be done.

This all still has to do with the BCHSV and BCHABC battles so that the prices of bitcoin and other altcoins are still difficult to predict, there are still many discharges made due to the fight of the two coins, this really makes investors afraid

Bitcoin is not predictable for ordinary people. for people who have been on the market for a long time and know how Bitcoin behaves, they understand where and when the price will go. they already know how those who control the market think

My opinion is the same as yours. In encryption, you can't predict whether the price will go up or drop. It depends on too many factors. For example, policy, investment and access funds, etc.

In the first place, the price of Bitcoin is highly manipulated)) And that's a fact. Nobody knows how it will act in a few minutes because of all this pumps and dumps that are unpredictable and illogical. To stop this manipulation we need much more liquidity on the market and the latter requires institutional investors to come on stage. And that's where the closed cycle is.

All you basically said is that bitcoin is volatile because of supply and demand changing. Bitcoin is so volatile because of how new it is, it's unproven and there are a lot of question markets around adoption and regulation etc. That means that demand (especially) can vary greatly from one day to the next.

I think it is not only bitcoin, everything in the whole of the world is unpredictable, thats why a proverb says no one knows tomorrow.
At that notice, lets continue to focus on today and enjoy the present, make most of it and never have regrets.

Neglect the unpredictability and have a fantastic trading experience in crypto currency

In my opinion, the volatility makes it the most unpredictable of all. This is caused by people who cuts for their losses early which is damaging the strength and belief around crypto, and no bodies will want to back a system that not even the people themselves support.

Now bitcoin is not predictable because it is highly susceptible to the news. although the last half of the year he was very predictable by technical analysis

I think bitcoin is still largely volatile and this level of price fall shows it is not yet a stable means of payment and value transfer. So far there is every Indication that there are a very few who are largely holders that might have acquired it early enough and therefore keep controlling the market

The price of bitcoin and other types of decentralized cryptocurrency will always be unpredictable, regardless of the maturity of the cryptocurrency market. The price of a decentralized cryptocurrency depends only on the ratio of supply and demand, and they are never constant. To determine how a cryptocurrency will behave, you need to know how investors and cryptocurrency holders will act, and it is very difficult to do so based on their large number and the inconsistency of their actions.

Because Bitcoin is a currency which is being mostly used for investment purpose, not as a real currency. It will be predictable when people will start to use it as daily currency. Before then, a lot of people may manipulate the market.

The crypto market is very poorly regulated. That is why now there is a great opportunity for manipulation. Investors do not want to risk. But sooner or later the market will become civilized and then everything will change for the better.

 ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? When people's intention behind investment is to become overnight rich or to earn very high rates of returns; there no one is able to predict what way the price will move.

It's not possible just because of the manipulation of the market. I barely think the price has been decreased because of any other reason without the manipulation and the same also true when the price gets increased. Some big whales control the total market. that's why BTC is unpredictable.

it will not be soon. we will see a less volatile market only after 5 years. I do not think that this will happen in the near future.

this year Bitcoin is very disappointing with a fall in prices below 4000 $. ups and downs make perfect sense in cryptography because there are so many elements of trading methods that change market balance. Bitcoin has become a very important coin and has good prospects, besides that the first born coin makes it the most influential to altcoin. I hope Bitcoin can restore what was lost this year.

Not only bitcoin is unpredictable, but the whole market. Only a few people own a large amount of bitcoins, which allows them to manipulate the price in any direction.

Bitcoin is just that predictable,and it is clear its prospect and everything else,but the actions of manipulators, who sits in the shadows and pulls the threads of the market, in an attempt to profit, that's EO of course is not clear, as it scares potential investors and many others who would like to enter this market, everything is done to

sometimes we must reflection to ourself, maybe we cant predict it but we say that the object cant predict
so, lets learn before say. the problem is our :)

No one can accurately predicts bitcoin,  stocks and forex and this is not because there are volatile but because that is the way the financial markets work.  We should be truth to ourself as a traders bitcoin is a bit more predictable than some stocks and even some currencies pairs. I believe that we can only predicts and guss them but for the market to 100% follow your direction is very difficult.

Bitcoin is decentralized and therefore it is difficult to predict bitcoin, the crypto market always changes depending on demand and supply.

I want to say that it is very difficult to say that Bitcoin's future is really tough. And I want to say that Bitcoin gave us many hopes, but now it's just a pessimism. The demand has decreased much earlier than this, for which its price has also decreased.

no one knows for sure what will happen at the price of BTC, it is too difficult to predict, whales only give a small possibility of manipulating BTC prices, but not fully controlling them, turnaround in the market, panic sales, and several other factors can also make BTC prices drop dramatically
keep calm, because this opens the worst era of BTC

It is simply so because of the supply and demand, when the price is low means that there are many people wanting to sell and few wanting to buy, that usually creates instability, so I very much doubt that an adoption will happen, at least not with the system we have in place, and perhaps it is time to look for an alternative to that problem.

Do not forget that the market does not depend on our desire. He's manipulated enough. I think it's in the hands of certain people who get rid of unnecessary influence.

I agree. The price of bitcoin depends on the number of investors that was selling or buying on the market. We cannot predict on when they will have an activity and that is what makes the price of bitcoin unpredictable. It is the same on the forms of investment its just that bitcoin is more active and it can literally go up and down at any given time. Stability is something that bitcoin will never have and that is what makes it famous.

That is because, when you try to predict the bitcoin, you are also trying to predict every people who is involve in it and people who is going to be involve with it in the future. You will figure out their interest in investing, on the other hand, their restrictions.

i think post people buying bitcoins to sell them later with profits that s the current game ....
But its nothing bad. But more and more people start to using Bitcoin for  payments and applications.


kind regards

The bitcoin is still unpredictable ,this is because the characteristics of this cryptocurrency technology is very volatile, so investors and customers of cryptocurrency investments should be always ready all the time, for this cryptocurrency is variables there are time it will falldown and there will be time it will rise up the value price of coins in the market.

The prediction of BTC's price is very hard due to the frequent fluctuation. I see that there are many predictions about BTC in 2018, they guess that at the end of 2018, BTC rate will reach more than $20,000, but at the moment, all are wrong. I think the main reason for BTC declining is the degradation of the economy.

Since 2009, bitcoin never been easy to predict by any one. If we could predict bitcoin value, we would buy bitcoin and accumulate it with a huge amount from the beginning. Bitcoin is not only the one have high volatility, but the entire cryptocurrencies are volatile as well.
Whales maybe the main reason, but whales never come if the common users and holders btc doesn't create more awareness.

Bitcoin prices go up and down that is normal, just gold like that, if a lot of people sell bitcoin, prices will definitely go down, and vice versa, if many buy, the price of bitcoin will rise, we must be able to see the right situation

When the bitcoin can be predictable then it will be easy people get results in crypto. basically, the bitcoin indeed fluctuates and this has become the base. the risk is that there will always be another crypto even bitcoin on because if without this condition the market fluctuations will not be fun.

I think this should be in bitcoin discussion. though for me, market still unstably predictable. We never know unless numbers is increasing or decreasing from time to time.

No one can move the prices down or up but only people/investors.

---

It is not automated and has its own algorightm when to increase/decrease. It all depends to the market cap and its demand, so you should apply law of supply and demand that makes it unpredictable.

Nobody can exactly predict the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin is volatile and therefore the value keeps on changing.

The price is unpredictable because humans are unpredictable. Is the market not controlled by the antics of demand and supply subject to humans needs and wants? So? Humans control whatever happens in the market and most times these humans do the control subjectively by allowing their emotions do the talking. That's why while some are showing weak hands and selling off in panic, others are buying. It's an unpredictable situation.

right, right now they will not feel panic because they already know the situation ahead of the price of bitcoin.
maybe now they are looking and waiting to collect more bitcoin in their wallets.

Cryptocurrency is an unregulated market in which anything can happen, including major manipulations. That is why we see the big price rises and a big drop in prices right now. I am sure it would not be that easy in a regulated market. That is why correct price forecast are almost impossible.

It is difficult to make a correct judgment in the current market. Without good news, the price of BTC is difficult to rise.

The price of bitcoin depends on the demand and supply , If you can predict both of them , you can predict the price of bitcoin .

**The demand means that how many people want to buy bitcoin and supply  means that how many people want to sell bitcoin **

You need to learn a lot to understand both  , it's not easy to predict something .

I think there are a still some whale bitcoin holders with a huge amount of BTC and they still could manipulate the market, it will not last for a long when capitalization rise they couldn't do such things

Of course, they are here because they believe on the potential of bitcoin.
There are whales also who dump but that is just a manipulation to make the price cheap but they will re buy it and sell it at a good profit.
That's how they make easy money in a short period of time.

The market is still young,we can say is in progress, then we have so much manipulation going on with crypto market,I believe with time the market will grow mature.

the uncertainties regarding any new asset class is huge. and bitcoin/crypto is one of the newer asset classes to hit our financial history in recent times... hopefully, as more ppl own/use it, its value will stabilise, just like gold did...

The instability of bitcoin now, in my opinion, is due to several reasons. One of them, the" youth " of the market, the other, I agree with other participants that includes a lot of money, so they play on the decline sharply, because the amount of bitcoin is limited.

The price of the bitcoin is base on the supply and the demand in the cryptocurrency market. I can say that the price of the bitcoin is predictable through the use of technical analysis. There are a lot of tools that we can use in order to predict the price of the bitcoin.

well I agree. and I also don't like people with BTC capital that many can do as they like, but that reality is happening now. so the time to go up is sure to come, it's just that all we can do is HodL and be patient

Bitcoin for all investors is the last stronghold before being transferred to a cash asset. But unfortunately so far it does not work and is practically not used for the holding. Let's wait a bit for the market to finally come to life.

I think an unpredictable market would make it more realistic not less. If everyone knows whats going to happen thats when the dynamic is probably false. You can check more info at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m6efyYFEWA

I also don't know what the main reason for bitcoin's unpredictability is now, and even today bitcoin and other altcoins are still unpredictable, maybe later with the market recovery, bitcoin and other altcoins won't be difficult to predict anymore, it's just not anyone knows when market recovery will happen.

Because bitcoin has a lot of speculative properties, it is not so stable. Before it is fully exploited, the price of bitcoin will always rise and fall with the manipulation of funds by investors. This cyclical phenomenon Very random, so the price of Bitcoin is unpredictable.

Fortunately, bitcoin can't be predicted. If this is a predictable market then we won't have too many opportunities. Now that we are still in the early days of cryptocurrencies, we still have a chance.

Broadly speaking, not only in bitcoin, almost all cryptoqurency cannot be predicted correctly. I think because BCH fork has something to do with current market prices, moreover I see negative news about crypto more and more popping up, it also includes hampering the development of prices in the market.

I agree. Market is never predictable that is why we buy and sell the product at the right moment that we could gain profit. We are playing with the risks of investing. This unpredicted price makes it volatile for us to gain from it which is worth everytime. Not all the time prediction is right but sometimes make us lose.

Bitcoin now is predictable since bitcoin is following the usd trends. I hope the developer of the bitcoin will take a new decision.

That is indeed how the cryptocurrency work. Also that is the reason why crptocurrency are unpredictable, that is because every people has their own way of thinking and there is no regulation to manage that price fluctuation when many big investors sell their coins.

bitcoin has always been unpredictable but only in short term. they can always manipulate the short term trends but there is nobody that can change anything about what happens to bitcoin in long term.
and it is simply because the adoption is not something that they can prevent. it will happen and because of it the price will continue to go up.

what makes it predictable is because of the people involve with it such as traders, hunters and customers who exploited this tech. More and more people uses this tech like it has no consequences. when more people became irresponsible the more the market will be unpredictable. I think its a matter of instinct and guts for us to gain from it.

I think there is only one reason why the price of cryptocurrency cannot be predicted, because no one can predict when all investors will choose to sell their cryptocurrency!

While the crypto-currency market will have such a low capitalization, in which it's possible to concentrate a huge amount of digital currencies in the hands of one person or group of persons, the market will be so volatile, there is nothing we can do about it, we just need to learn how to earn on it, rather not to be greedy , take any profit, and not wait for the price to go to the moon , because it can not fly there and fall very low. :D

all depends on the law of demand and supply, so I think bitcoin is still very difficult to predict, especially the nature that is very different from the stock

Because there are no indicators that can predict the number of people who sell a lot of coins all at once. There was no indicator that showed mt.gox will be hacked, there was no indicator that said bitcoin is going to 20 thousand dollars, there was no indicator when china banned bitcoin, there was no indicator that Craig would sell a lot of bitcoin at once in order to fuel his satoshis vision coin.

These are all "out of nowhere" stuff that affected bitcoin price that we couldn't ever known beforehand. All these people who keep on trying to do predictions about bitcoin price are probably new people or people that want to look cool or something. No one in the whole world could know the price a minute from now because some crazy stuff could happen and we would all watch it in awe.

Bitcoin price depends on the level of its capitalization, so it will always be unpredictable price!

what you say is true, up and down the price of bitcoin, that's normal, everyone wants to buy and sell bitcoin, so the price of bitcoin goes up and down

Bitcoin values are constantly changing and we can not determine which price will be the lowest and highest price. This market is currently very risky and any investment that may cause you to lose money quickly. It is advisable for you to be calm and not to buy any altcoin if the market has not yet shown signs of uptrend.

Despite all the factors stated in this thread, I see backing Bitcoin and crypto price in general with precious metals, like Gold, is very effective in dealing with the volatility in bitcoin price. This way, we can see a stable price in Bitcoin for the long-run. Gold has known for its stability in price. Here comes the Gigzi project with a unique ecosystem and strong backing for crypto. https://gigzi.com ..

So, yea, when it is unpredictable, we can definitely make it more stable!

What is the age of Bitcoin! We are still far away from achieving a stable Bitcoin, what we are seeing now will repeat again and again until finally the market mature enough, right now the market can be manipulated very easily and this is not with Bitcoin only, it is the same case for all other coins, and as long as this is the situation then nothing will change. We will see a lot more swings up and down in the upcoming years maybe even till  2022.

Bitcoin will always remain the main currency against which other altcoins will trade. First, it is the very first currency with which it all began. Secondly, many players are interested in buying it, as its number is limited. Third, a large number of programmers work on the security of bitcoin. At the moment, the market is fighting for this asset. Large investors periodically manipulate the price, so that later they settled a huge number of these coins. They do it smart enough to keep the market alive. Without their manipulation, the market will simply cease to exist. This happens absolutely in any market in addition to cryptocurrencies. When trading, the main thing is to act according to the strategy and then you will always be with your savings.

i think it is happening because bitcoin and other coins are not stable it is in their nature and we can not do anything about it

in my opinoon coins like btcoin will always be that way because it is liek the economy system works so we need to accept this

Bitcoin will remain unpredictable until it matures and developed! The bitcoin is still rarely new powerful payment system based on blockchain technology, the growing pain is what we see as volatility and as bitcoin develop, the issue with bitcoin get solved and adoption market become bigger!

Like every free market, here the price is based on supply and demand. The price of Bitcoin depends on users and speculators. When interest in Bitcoin grows, its price will also increase. Unfortunately, but it is almost unpredictable. In most cases, it is based on the belief that technology will develop and that the price of BTC will increase.

yes because bitcoin is volatile where prices can change significantly over time making it difficult to guess easily. we can predict what bitcoin will look like in the future, but not necessarily what we predict is exactly what we expect.

because it is what bitcoin is unstable and still prpfitable cryptocurrency thag can bring 6ou a lot of new opportunities now

i absolute
y agree with ypu if a person thinks taht he can worl only in stable conditions he should not even try to work here as it is unmpossible for him

Yes it is true, the investors had a big role why bitcoin goes up and down. If there are demands on bitcoin the price will go up but if no demands then the price will go down.

      And this was showed that no one controlled the market and the price since all Bitcoin holders are anonymous and have different strategy for their composure but nothing to worry since this will give opportunity for other people to buy with a low price .

Bitcoin have never been predictible, because only whales with more than 10000btc on the wallets. Not technical nor fundamental analysis works here in crypto.

Bitcoin is considered as speculative, so the price is unpredictable because it depends on many factors that are most important is the psychology, the belief of people. So it is always a risky investment. It is only possible to predict future development or not but can not predict what the price will be like

Completely agree with you. I also think that analisys do not work, Bitcoin is unpredictable because of the one reason - the manipulation of bankers with the Bitcoin and the whole market in order to get the rapid wealth.

Because it is very difficult to follow market price movements, for example when we guess prices often occur errors and there are also true, but not 100% correct and many are missed, so in my opinion no one is able to predict the price of bitcoin until now.

This is a not btc condition. I saw all major cryptocurrencies are getting downed due to panic sellers. Anyway btc is first based cryptocurrency and now prices down lot and un predictable.

Because there is no regularity. The price of bitcoin depends on many factors, but certainly not on the seasons.

Crypto price depends on the market demand and trading activity and volume. Investors and traders activity dictates the price. That is why it is volatile and unpredictable.

Why do you think so? Maybe you just lack skills to predict the price movement? I can say that i lack too, but i know the people who predicted the 5k price from the beginning

At the moment, Bitcoin has a small capitalization, so it is very sensitive to the actions of players in the market, this is my opinion.

We can't, if we can predict Bitcoin price, everyone would be rich, it can not happen. In a market we can predict what will happen, many experts can sometime give  exact analysis but this will not happens regular.

I think there are a lot of factors. Many simply leave Bitcoin and invest in new cryptocurrencies. It also affects him in the form of a fall. Large investors also carry out various manipulations with the market, crushing their financial capital.

it is difficult because we are only followers and not part of the big investors in it and for me just by waiting and saving our assets as long as we are able and patient ..

of course bitcoin will be very difficult to predict because the price movement of bitcoin depends on demand and interest, bitcoin can never be predicted even though you have several methods to predict I'm sure it will never be able to fully succeed.

Investors are most likely sitting back and relaxing in the current bear market. The people who does not understand where they put in it are the ones probably selling in my opinion.

I think crypto is synonymous with manipulation, the market moves based on speculation in the market. so it's natural if we are difficult to predict trends. only people who have large sums of money can set prices, such as the current case, during a hash war.

in my opinion it is the law of buying and selling in the business world, if they know a lot about the fluctuations in Bitcoin, that's funny

Thats all crypto-currency works its unpredectable thats why it has associated with risk. So we better accept this reality thats why before we ventured into crypto-investments we must know the do's and donts about it or else we will surprised or we lose our funds due to luck of knowledge about it.

Yes Crypto market is always unpredictable due to its investors,competitors and risks are involved in crypto. These are some of reasons why Bitcoin is unpredictable. So be cautious and watch the market closely if you are investing in BTC.

Everything around crypto are very unpredictable, price may change every time due to some factors affecting on it.  Bit we don't need to worry for it cause that is normal and it is usually occurs to any for of investment.  In fact, price fluctuations help us to be earned profit.

It seems to me that we should be prepared for the fact that crypovolume is extremely unpredictable and volatile. if we are not ready for this, we will simply lose all our money

there are many reasons why bitcoin cannot be predicted at all, in my opinion the movement of the price of bitcoin is unpredictable maybe this is because bitcoin was created to be nobody's control so that the price of bitcoin is unpredictable.

The unpredictability of the Bitcoin price and the insecurity of depositors can be a stumbling block in the SEC decision on the adoption of the ETF.

indeed, the price of bitcoin is fluctuating which really cannot be guessed or analyzed in any way, because that is the nature.
but one of the things that does have the effect of price movements is the traders and investors who want to monopolize prices as they want, but this cannot last long because of the high level of competition that occurs in each market to continue to maintain prices to look normal.

If Bitcoin can predict it will have disappeared now. Bitcoin has a large number of whales, and they represent multiple forces, such as miners and celebrity forces. They cannot achieve unity. So the technical reference has no meaning for cryptocurrency.
