With recent surge in Bitcoin above $5000, those prophets and prophetesses has come again to predict. All there predictions in late 2017 and early 2018 that Bitcoin will not rest and gasp for breading until it reaches $80,000 per Bitcoin failed to hold any ground. They have lead millions that are following there channels bankrupt in which they are yet to recover. That is why it is good to always do your own research and follow it strictly, even-though it failed, you will be more satisfied than shifting blames to someone that is directing your decision financially. I have found out that majority most times are always wrong.

Why all these stories, they are silent for over a year and suddenly re-appeared about a week ago. Now, there prophesy is that Bitcoin will re-traced to $4200 before we experience any tangible moves, telling there followers to place a pending order around that range. Personally, I don't agreed with them but have an opinion that they will join to buy in $6300 - $6700 range. Technically, on which side would the shift goes based on your justification.

It just re-appear now because obviously the price has started to pick up in the last couple of months and last week was one of the massive spike we have seen in recent months, about +20% in a week. So now those prophets started to emerge again with their predictions and speculations. And for those who gone bankrupt following some 'experts', then it's there fault, you don't just follow and believed someones word here in crypto sphere. And those 'experts'? they are not, they just like you and me here, just making a wild guess.

Expect for more so-called experts to pop out on next days or months if bitcoins price would tend to increase gradually onwards.They do make those speculations once again and those
fools who do easily believe on what they do say will really lost up money instead and would regret later on.How many times we do say that it isnt really ideal to follow any predictions
made by those people but there would always be some noobs that do believe on how to make easy money on following others tips.

Yeah, following others who claims themselves as "expert" is not good decision. Most of the predictions are being made to make people greedy to see the profit they can make if the prediction goes true. Those who believe in such prediction should be educated more and more so they wont be fooled by prediction. We should never rely on other's prediction as we are risking our money not the predictor's money. It is OK to use the prediction as a comparison to what we think but relying 100% on prediction is a BIG mistake.

Well, there is easy-money to be made with this, as long as there is money go be made, there is people to do it.

I really never heard the prophecy of Bitcoin will have bullrun to $80k at this year. But anywho, I'm on bullrun side, but yeah it may retraced to around $4k first before we can hit a new run.

I believe that 2017 bull would have undermined most research because it was highly underestimated that bitcoin will get to that price range and because it is decentralized, nobody thought it was pumped. This is why people rode on the price increase and never believed it will crash hard that way. Myself, I still wouldn't believe if someone predicted to me that price will fall as far as it fell.

This is just a personal opinion/speculation,
but i think if it hits 4970-4950 limit.. it will go on like a projectile motion (bearish) or other's say cup-like trend.
on the other hand, if it hits 5375-5400 the rocket will continue (bullish) or it'll maintain its horizontal trend for a short time..

it'll be best to look at this at both angles or from a different perspective

wish i could have bought more btc..  (-_ -)/

I agree on your statement above that we should make a research on our own to avoid such issues. Because in fact it's their view only which is predictions that have no certain theology behind reason sometimes opposite direction always happened. so making a research is still  a must which just to assure we cannot blame others and of course to prevent regrets at the end.

It's natural that after such a huge spike in the price after months of no market movements, crypto predictors will come back in full force to start guessing prices again with their TAs and crystal ball predictions. They have better chances of drawing the attention from the public by guessing a higher price than by guessing a drop in the price or new lows.

Look at Tom Lee for example, a well-known wall street bull, he was pretty quiet for a few months until recently when he started throwing random prices again, this time, saying bitcoin price should 14k. Expect more random guesses in the upcoming months if we enter an uptrend.

I agree with this, if you take some of your time to familiarize yourself into something that you are about to start you are preparing yourself to explore without exposing yourself into worst situation, though that's one of the things that we can't skip but then lessen issues will be encounter. Researching doesn't need to be formal or systematic it jist have to be credible enough for you to trust and to execute, we should recognize which one to trust or Not since crypto community is a very complicated entity. Prophecy or prediction at this point is not helpful, Bitcoin is not in the good rate to assess and people will definitely ignore those prophecies and prediction unless they can see improvement ,you can't pursue them at lowest point, if you will you have to exert so much efforts. I have emcounter so much false prediction, and somethimes it only act as bait for the people. This entire system is like gaming, you never know what's next so for you to have some bigger probability to earn you must have to be familiar and aware in what you are doing, and that's what  Bitrus (https://www.bitrus.com/worldcup?utm_source=ccwc) are doing and it can be made possible by the upcoming exchange , which can make trading a lot more easier due to the free crypto investing strategy with great deals of welcoming rewards right after signing up and a chance to win a ticket to the world cup of crypto through trading and referrals.

That's also one of the reasons why a lot of investors are complaining just because they are following people who are always making prediction of the price. I remember the recent bull-market where people are waiting for McAfee's post on twitter and following it's prediction. I suggest that people should starting doing their self a favor and stop depending on other influencer's opinion.

Some of them making the prediction based on their feeling not based on the fact, data or chart, and there are a lot of different opinions, so it's the best to do your own research and invest based on your knowledge, the market is hard to predict the expert also can make the wrong prediction, so don't believe too much in expert prediction, this bullish is a bit suspicious for me, because the price is going up without any major news, so I think you need to be careful

So obviously because of good signal came from the market cap people called expert are starting predicting came from their own analysis which is to be include the positive thinking that bitcoin isn't stay at lower price value after all bearsh market experience and they expect positive result for the small sign of price increase.

Based on technical analysis, the movement is not really weird. The current run is based on TA, fundamental aspect doesn't really matter that much except people trying to accumulate for the halving.

I think choosing to believe it will continue until it hit $80k or even breakdown to $2k is both too extreme. I'd say it's better for us to made a choice based on analysis and keep making profits.

I believe there will be a lot of positive news that can change the price of Bitcoin to be much better. Now Bitcoin is like a commodity that is needed by many elements of society, especially people who are active in the world of internet and technology. The more days the use of Bitcoin will increase, so this is a much better indicator of development.

I am sure that soon, there will be so many predictions from the experts and they are trying to reach more audience by making the analysis to show their skills. But personally, I don't too believe with their analysis because I don't want to just follow them to buy bitcoin and I still believe myself to make an analysis.
Bitcoin still moving until now and the progress is in a good way to increase but we don't know if this situation will be like this in this year or it will get down again.

Most of the people will just go with the trend so if they are seeing good price movements on the bitcoin they will say bitcoin will reach this level in this time period and so on but if they see price decline they will say this is the end of bitcoin so just quit now,if you are a true believer you no need to worry about these short bumps as well as dumps just bee on the side of holding.

That is because everyone can give their opinions and opinions about the analysis made and present it. Based on some information that can be obtained and what I do, I think we really want a bull market so that it can actually happen. I also disagree with those prophets and what their followers do, it will actually decrease and it is uncertain that after they catch at a low price then it will go up high.

Hey, you need to really look up the internet, there are so many predictions out there even from great analyst, we even have some that predicted that BTC will go as high as $150,000 this year, I know all is speculation but it’s a good one, it will prompt investors who would believe in such prediction to speedily invest out of the fear of missing out.

The last bull markets we have seen, I am so sure something somewhere we are not fully aware of must have triggered the interest of investor that had FOMO out and quickly took advantage of the current price it was on then. So, we can still do this too so more investor can come in.

I'm not sure i can have trust and confidence in someone predicting the price to balloon to 150k this year. Seems like folly lol. Even if whales pump the price, i don't think fomo can take us that far since it's still fresh in people's minds what happened last year. Many would think twice about buying beyond 10k. Would you buy btc this year if the price goes up to even 50k? I doubt it.

 I think it's a venture capital. Although my investment experience is not much, I still know that, at present, it is not a good time for BTC to grow strongly. The economic recession has not yet ended and the capital of the crypto market is increasing, this is a suspicious sign.

So you can rely on great analyst on the internet to take a financial decision. Are they going to liable or you will be the one? Everything on the internet are mere speculations and probabilities. I will also have to give my a link to the link or username that predicted $150,000 bitcoin this year and I will have a look at their fundamental and technicality.

The pending order advise is just for their own personal interest too, you know they have already cash out the ones they have profited on, now it’s time for them to reinvest, but they can only do that when the price of BTC is low and that is why they would do anything to create FUD that would make investors panic sell their coins so that the market can drop, but sooner or later, they will realize that value is not possible as you said because many holders will continue to hold their coins against all odds, till bitcoin perform its best to reach its ATH again.

For the $80000 prediction, it’s still possible to achieve but not immediately.

I think I am on the bull side because even though I sold my bitcoins I am still working towards more bitcoins which means I have sold at a lesser value but I am buying from a higher value (bad for me but good for the market) so I am still hoping to get bitcoin to a higher price.

Hopefully, I with the new hype around bitcoin price we will be capable of creating an environment where everyone wants to buy bitcoin, if we can create that huge hype we used to have than we can reach back to those 20 thousand levels as well. We need to make sure people are really believing this new increase, everyone should see this as something huge and not something temporary, that is the talk now, is this for real or is this just temporary bounce that will eventually go back down.

Who get confident in the period of 2017 to 2019 will be the most important it and profit of 8% at the end of the 2019 because there will be a lots of chances available now to perform a huge development in the end of this year and it will be possible right now that must be a chances of getting huge income who had hold all their investment.

It's not suspicious at all. In all cases, markets don't go down endlessly, unless it's an obvious scam or a failing company stock, which Bitcoin obviously isn't. It's a healthy upwards movement we made, but for now that's really all it is.

Time will tell whether or not we're going to push forward even further, but the increase we have seen lately is a mixture of improved technicals and of course a mild form of fomo because people don't want to be left behind.

The thing that people discard right now due to their euphoric mindset is that crypto can easily go down as fast as it went up. If this is just a temporary increase, a lot of people will get rekt in the process. Perfect last shakeout scenario I say.

many may not like to hear this but if they lost money because of following some channel then they did deserve to lose their money and it was their own fault. they were following a shitty pump and dump channel that is using them as a sheep!

it is because these people (the channel owners) are scamming people. they are mostly newbies who can't make profit by trading so they have to do it by abusing other newbies. so to seem capable of "predicting" they go with the flow. for example when there is a bitcoin price rise they start hyping up things talking about "moon" and when there is a small drop they start talking about how bitcoin is dead. both of these rise and drops may not even be significant and be daily fluctuations but them being newbies wouldn't know it!

I don't think that smart investors are going to be affected by so much FUD, actually during last weeks massive runs there are FUD popping. But we are not affected by it because we all know that they just wanted to create some sort of chaos and push the price down a bit so that they can enter. But it didn't work as the gains continue as high as 20%, that week alone.


Everything is possible, might take years or just after the bitcoin block halving in 2020 and price peaking at 2021.

It is of no doubt that crypto this year is seriously pregnant with lots of great things to be birthed and injected into the system which we will all see in due course.

We may not see the ATH this year but we will surely experience a significant growth in Bitcoin that will also lead to massive increase in some of our altcoins holdings, just like it has started doing this month and many more of it still on its way, we just need to keep holding on to our coins, never allow any small decrease to discourage us, so we don’t end up falling into the hands of manipulators that may want to discourage us and prepare us for future regrets.

I did not notice that the crazy predictions had already began, could you share a link to those predictions? Because even if I have seen people that were very positive about the gains in the price of bitcoin during the last week I failed to notice anyone giving those kind of predictions, in fact most of the people were very moderate in their enthusiasm and were very cautious about it, so I find it surprising that some people were so bullish and that some investors were as naive to believe them.

When the market increases, they can predict anything based on their psychology. I think we should only see this as a reference because they don't have any links to prove it. In my opinion, this price increase will not last long and there will be a big adjustment in the market and today the value of many big coins being affected makes many people having financial difficulties.

Well, I believe in the prophesy up to some extent, I don't think that the price of bitcoin will get to $80,000 straight forward because before that we may see wild fluctuations too again, my best guess is that the price of bitcoin will get to $50,000 (the biggest psychological target hence a bigger resistance levels) then we are going to see a drop again in the price of bitcoin and crypto as a whole, though we would not see the price of bitcoin go below $20,000 anymore even if we see a major dump in the price, this prophecy will definitely happen in 2020 because 2019 is just a year of recovery and not really the bull run we are expecting.

I am definitely on bullish side because bitcoin has proven itself about long term sustaining bull rally and this time we have seen a quick rally toward $5000 but it seems not sustaining but it would be obvious for a pull back up to $4800 levels before prices testing $5900 levels.

Wasn’t this obvious?ofcourse to gather another fool investors to believe in their stupid predictions ,and the answer is already in your thoughts that they are just reappear when the market show some greens and hold for atleast more than a week things that never happen later december of 2018 and since the start of 2019 .if i were to choose?I would rather wait until bull is proven and never trust this so called prophets or experts

it's possible for me but in ii bitcoin will definitely have an expensive price again because from yesterday bitcoin has experienced a pretty good price increase

People do unnecessary things just because they want fame. In the case of these analysts, if they can get their forecasts right, then they will have a lot of fame and many customers... They are trying to get customers and reputation, and at the same time they are trying to profit. I would say hearing their opinion is something very risky.


I heard them say that it would cost $25,000 and $40,000. Tom Lee, and some names that I can not remember were very active in the predictions


when the price was $3400, they said it would fall to $2000 and $1000, and I did not see that. They always fail

As for someone who truly believes in bitcoin, I would always stay on the positive side with hopes of it reaching another ATH. However, we still cannot deny the fact that bitcoin value is always and will always be speculative. More investments mean higher value, more dumps mean otherwise. The sudden price surge that happened recently was rather unamusing compared to the significant spikes in the past. It's just so hard to tell where this is going. It never hurts to stay positive, though.

Normally, supporters loves seeing the uptrend movements, people believes that this current rise is not the peak yet and hope are bringing more followers to start placing more investment and wait for the possible outcome, when you put your trust you also need to bring patience behind it, strongly believes that there's more to come and continuously rising along the way.

Staying positive has more effect on the market than staying negative, we will only end up doing damage to the market if we continue to stay negative, so right now, whether this period is favorable or not, we must continue to sing praises of our coin to get more attention.

I wish everyone can be a smart one like you and I but unfortunately, we still have some weak hands that are falling deep into these people’s FUD being created, that is why we are still seeing lots of  fluctuation in the price of today despite the fact that the semi bulls are trying all its best to keep the market green.

At the same time, I also wish all these weak hands can please leave the market for us for now, but what I am happy about is that we still have smart investors more than the weak ones who would continue to Hold and keep their investment for long and for the future purpose.

Doing your own research and listening to your own speculations will be more useful than listening to others predictions. But if you can look at the market's situation, the speculators said that we should have an entry before when the price was at $4200 was somehow true. I mean, if we leave our order and the price is at $5000 above now. It will somehow give us a big profits if we listened to them. But oh well,  we do not want to listen to them without basis, right?

Having patience is hard to do when you observed bad market always tend to create more downfalls. Trust building is one of the way to develop determinations and courage as well. I always belong to very sustainable and great world of bitcoin. We must face the world with unstoppable mindset, without any worries despite of raging challenges which took very long time to occur so far.

For every success, there is always a beginning, when we were still in school, we celebrate every class we pass out from, it doesn’t mean that we have fully passed out of the school, but it worth celebrating for passing a class to the next one, same as this Bitcoin, we have just passed a class out of many classes that we need to pass before graduating into the FULL BLOWN BULL RUN.

I could remember every tension that we all experienced in the market when it was struggling between $3k and $4k, but we cannot compare the tension then to what is happening now, so it’s amazing how BTC could speedily get promoted from bear market to bull and working add day by day to reach its ATH, we just need time and more input for us to all graduate into the ATH.

I hope that Bitcoin will reach its peak like the end of 2017, so the crypto market will be more alive and move forward, but all the threads above are only speculations based on prices rising this month

the takeoff it's ready for Bitcoin and it will definitely been take off in very short time so the development side is always been very helpful for everyone to get the profit otherwise waiting will not only give the opportunity again like this so investing right now it's possible the best way of investment in everyone's life.

Taking into account that the market analyzed from the theory of Wyckoff, if it is possible that it can fall to $ 4.2K, this is because we are in the accumulation phase, volatility can allow this type of behavior, these moments are in the 5K, but it is not written that it raises once and reach a new ATH, this phase must be fulfilled in its entirety, where around 70 -80% of bitcoins accumulate so that it can go up in price, or start its trend stage bullish, but still a long time, you can not set a period of time, it can be months or even years. But everything in Crypto is possible.

I always have problem with people who advise one to do his or her own research. From your submission above where do you think whoever is taking your advice will go research because the same people you are alleging are the ones sponsoring article all over the internet.

The advice to trader is that you have to be greedy and invest more when people are afraid of the market and be afraid of the market by selling most of your coins when are happy about the increase in the price.

Lol. That's also a generic advise that seems to be easy until you're already in that position. People tend to go with the general market feeling and it's not easy to go against the flow when panic sets in.

I'm not sure if the whole idea makes any sense

I refer to weak hands. Okay, let's assume there are weak hands in the market, even though the term itself requires a more specific definition (or just a definition, for that matter), and they get shaken out. And what's next? Do you want to say that there will be only strong hands? What about day traders who are constantly selling and buying? Are they strong or weak hands? Besides, no matter the definition, weak hands is a relative notion, and there will always be them just because there is a perpetual divide or distinction between strong hands and weak hands (read, there cannot be only strong hands)

If you are a long term holder it does not make any difference where the price is going in the short term what it matters the most is that you are willing to hold even when the price crashes and if you are still holding even now after the huge crash that we suffered then you are already in one of the best positions possible since it is very unlikely that we are going to suffer another crash like the one that we saw at the end of 2017, so the only thing that will make you even more profitable in the future is if you have the cash to buy even more bitcoin while it is still cheap.

From what I have observed so far the current movement of Bitcoin and crypto currency in general, there is a tendency that Bitcoin will continue to increase in market value and there will be no any serious decline in the market for Bitcoin and all orthers that use to react to Bitcoin.

every year we have heard many predictions and all these predictions were all wrong. the guys who make predictions constantly are wrong. each person must trust in himself and think for himself in order to make his own decisions. if the person did research and concluded that the currency will rise, then the person can buy the currency, but should never buy because he heard crazy predictions of these analysts


I see many guys in the altcoins section being very optimistic in the altcoins they have invested in, but every day the altcoins are falling in price and the devs are constantly traveling or are on twitter selling empty hope.

After tracking backwards for several months specially in 2018 until mid-first quarter 2019, the price of bitcoin has decreased dramatically. This thing certainly does not match what they expected before, but not for those (who are good at using the situation well) because the decline in market prices can usually provide a special blessing for market players in perfecting their target of success specially in the future.


That's how predictions work, he won't move on something accurate but not more than 'just' to be used as a benchmark that's combined with the real conditions that occur in the market.

Bitcoin is stabilizing at $5200 and will certainly increase in the short term because people are in very good spirits in holding and the demand for Bitcoin is increasing, making many investors benefit. In my opinion, the value of new Bitcoin can reach in May is $7000 because this will be the price that Bitcoin needs to reach before the market can continue to rise.

I'm thinking with your view too on this. We are out of the bear as I see already. It is going to start moving gradually up till we get out of the $5000 area.

It is always advised and suggested to speculate in Bitcoin when its value is down. This should be understood because the Bitcoin stays up and down. It is a cycle. There would be recession and revival so I think that the price couple of month ago when it was around $4000 was the ideal price for speculation. Speculating right now would not be bad either but it will definitely make you low money in case of further rise.

Bitcoin is caught in a trap of it's own popularity. I remember when the price started creeping up towards $20,000 per bitcoin and the transaction fees were getting absolutely ridiculous. There are a lot of people who bought at the top who are still waiting for the price to rise again, and they will cash out when it does. Given a long enough time, it is possible to see a steady rise upwards.

do not expect too much from them and do not overlook what they say
but usually bitcoin will pump towards the end of the year, we just wait ::) ;D

The right word you have used there, people are really in good spirit, this is why I keep telling people that it will be absolutely impossible for bitcoin to drop in price below the $5000 provided we don’t have any news that will create FUD in the mind of people that will cause dump, but I think bitcoin community are stronger than other altcoins communities, and they don’t just panic at every news they see.

For now, many current investor are fully in the spirit to wait for further increase which I believe along with you that it will be in a short time from now, we should be able have a tangible increase again by next week.

Hm. Not sure what planet you've been living on because I've not recalled any period of letdown from these prophets. Tim Drapers. Tone Vays. John McAfee. They piped up in 2017 as I recall, and they haven't really stopped. It's cyclical, if you believe in Bitcoin cycles, and the prophets are also the same. Which tells me, this cycle ain't over yet till we hear new guys spill their new beans.

Speaking off... who are the new guys now? Weiss? Diar?

Time and time again these people who call themselves experts just post some none sense and predictions that serve nothing but miss lead people, there is no telling what the future holds or when the price is going to change  and what these people says should not be taken not even with a grain of salt, whether to buy or sell or just hold is something that should made based on your own analysis and based on your beliefs, and not from people who are pretending to be experts.

Lol, we just have to learn to balance the equation based on what you just advised, the funny thing is that both sideways of BTC is favorable, I support both sideways, I could decide to join them at their $4200 campaign because I will be able to have the chance to buy more and if the movement is that of the other $6200, it also profit me, because my investment would have appreciated by at least $1400.

To round it up, I think I prefer the upward trend, so that we can continue on that trend and keep mobbing close to the ATH, since many of us are all waiting for the bull run, the  higher we get, the closer we are to seeing bull run.

It's always better to trust your own analysis than to believe any of the bitcoin prophets & their prophecies. These people just give their blind estimates to fool people around & play with their money. Technical Analysis can never predict movement as big as $80000. Moreover a person who has actually given a statement based on technical analysis would always love to share it to take others opinion for a better understanding & even improving it in whole. So that he can correct the deficiencies.

It seems you are advising people to learn TA . Well actually that is a good suggestion and do not forget to know FA too, it is very important. But there are inside intels that is not available to us "outsiders".  Many of these so-called "experts" have a wide range of connection and groups that have the capability to affect the price of Bitcoin.  Aside from their own influence, their connection has their own influence too, so once they conspire, we can see the movement favors their predictions.  

Time is working for Bitcoin at this point. The longer it stays above 5000 the better. It will keep attacking 5800 until it breaks it and the golden cross that's coming will only strengthen its case. I feel like everything will play out in the coming days. If we get a big dump now it will not be looking good but the charts are saying that we should at least touch 5800 before retesting the lows.

I'm bullish short and long term.

 I think it's a venture capital. Although my investment experience is not much, I still know that, at present, it is not a good time for BTC to grow strongly. The economic recession has not yet ended and the capital of the crypto market is increasing, this is a suspicious sign.

Fundamental analysis hasn't been worth much for people who look to make a short to medium term trade/investment. Altcoins are perfect examples of how fundamental analysis isn't doing what it should be doing. If altcoins fundamentally suck hard, which the far majority do, they shouldn't increase in value, but they still do.

I doubt most of the "experts" have a wide range of connections, or at least, not connections that are valuable in a market like this, otherwise they wouldn't be wrong so many times, and as we have seen, they have no power over the price in any shape or form. There is not much of a difference between an "expert" such as Mike Novogratz and you. Mike lost almost a hundred million dollars in paper value. If he was such an expert, this wouldn't happen.

After the all time high in 2017, bitcoin has reached its popularity beyond expectation so a lot of new people came in 2018. And that marked the start of what they called "bitcoin experts". Predictions flooded the cryptocurrency community, most of these were good. But, 2018 brought them to the ground with fall of the market. Hoping that lessons already been taught that this is not easy-to-get rich industry. Now, with the slight rise, there's no guarantee yet of the so-called bull run.

Predictions are just predictions.

Lol i love the term used ‘Prophecy ‘ sound’ sounds like very miraculous 😂

Buy kidding aside I don’t like exaggerated words to use for speculative prices since some are misleading and mostre impossible,i would prefer believing in lower value but sensible like the value will cross $10,000 before the 2019 ends

Even before 2018 lots of Experts has been around and giving their Prophecy to the market,but only the lucky gets closer to the price they predict so nothings new now its just the old are coming back

Even by seeing prices moving downwards, you hearts shouldn’t melt and shouldn’t shackle. This would hurt your mind and hence, unfortunately, you would take wrong decisions affected through emotional hike. Better is to keep yourself high esteemed and determined. No one ever have had fantastic results by showing lose control, rather be firm on what you are doing. Keep searching and update yourself with the recent.

I think the thing here is to be ready to take the risk always. Always be ready for whatever the market gives. In this cryptocurrency market anything is likely to happen at anytime, and you either lose your money or you make profit. And if you’re a trader, the same thing also applies to you as a trader, there are risks. All these analysts are mostly wrong, they can’t predict the market, that’s why you will always see that their analysis never works. I can even remember that one of them said that bitcoin will be around $100,000 by 2019, but here we are, still crying over $5000 and not sure what next is going to follow.

Most of the long term prophecies given that has been accurate are just mere coincidence and it is very much impossible to accurately predict the price BTC for future.

The only prophecy that I know can be accurately given are the ones done for our daily trading, because there are tools available for one to be able predict the price of BTC a day, in which 60 out of 100 of day trader through technical analysis has successfully predicted correctly. Some long term predictions are either done to create FOMO or create FUD, which is not totally bad though, especially the prophecies made to create FOMO buy.

We have hear many predictions about the market and some has come to pass and we still expect those by McAfee and others to come to pass.  I strongly believe in cycles as a traders and that is why I do used cycles indicator most time in knowing the state of a coin par time.

It is true there are many people with influences that have access to information and knowledge that we do not, but we do not really need that knowledge to make some predictions about the future of bitcoin, bitcoin is so good that it is almost inevitable that is going to have success, the governments cannot shut it down and it is one of the best forms of money available and when we take into account its limited nature then the price has almost no option but to go up over the long term.

Lolzzz, why should anyone believe them this time around, they weren’t able to predict that bitcoin will rise to $5000. Just now that it has gotten to that rate and they have all crept out from their holes to disturb us with their fake predictions that never works for once. They are always everywhere, even on Twitter and reddit and always predicting rubbish that never works. If you follow their predictions you will always end up making a mistake as per my experiences.

I never trusted any such prophecies. I always try to think for myself. I have a few people to whom I listen, but the final decision anyway is always mine.

Right.This should always be the attitude of a trader or an investor.We may still listen to those who are in high positions but in the end,we should be able to make our own and final decision.It's fine if we end up committing mistakes in the end because this will give us lessons to be much better the next time around.

Those who openly predict the price of Bitcoin in the next couple of months or years are entitled to their own opinion and we have the choice to just ignore their opinion or take it as a fact. If any of you plan to listen to them, take a moment to look at their prediction if it is backed by anything like a study, history, and graphs. If there's none, better ignore and move on.

I was so desperate with all my losses in 2018 that I needed something to remain positive so I look for predictions and  rely on it. And the result of it was the worst decision of my life. I did find two of them and both of them says btc and some altcoins that they mentioned that will reached new highs when 2019 arrives but none of these came true. Better believe in yourself and don't trust these fake prophets or anything related like its their special talent because you will just loss more.

BTCUSD has formed its first bullish golden cross since October 2015 - a sign that we will be seeing new heights soon?

Which is as it should be, there is nothing wrong with taking notes of the predictions and the reasons given by other traders about what they think the price will do next but at the end we are the ones responsible for doing our trades, it is not rare to find in the forums traders that whenever things go right for them they take all the credit but as soon as they lose money they begin to blame others by their mistakes and it is easy to see why such traders never improve their trading skills since they do not accept their own mistakes.

I am sorry about your loss man, we have so many people like you and I that also fell victims of 2018 circumstances, but I am still happy that it happened, it thought me how to be stronger in this market, the experienced I had then has really made ways for me this year through my trading, I was forced to learn how to apply my own personal analysis.

I don’t shrink people’s opinion completely, I take any of the opinions I pick interest in as a base for my research and I think ever since I have been doing my own personal research, I have not fallen for any of these their FUD news, no I am fully prepped for the next bull run and I am sure that I will be a winner this time around and not a loser.

gathering information from experts can indeed be a recommendation for some people who want to trade, but fully we do not overestimate the information provided by others, we recommend doing your own research so that the decisions we make are not based on experts who do not necessarily have predictions Accurate

Exactly.We can make experts predictions as our own bases but we should not solely rely on it.We should make more research so that we will be able to make final decisions from our own research and studies.Failures might appear but this will be our motivation to be more good in the next trade.So never stop learning in trading.

Getting yourself updated with every move in market is really intellectual. This actually shows concern of a person with his or her investment. Mostly, people lose their investments by wrong decisions and that’s only because they didn’t know how market was trending. Their strategies were unchanged which doesn’t resonate with current scenario, hence they fall. Better to keep an eagle eye on market.

Just remember good traders are those which wait patiently to find the right time to buy of sell anything. Bitcoin has started recovering after a a long downtrend so its obvious many technical experts will be keeping eye on it. Personally I do not follow any technical expert blindly because all of the are not accurate instead I study the market myself and take trade based on it, if it goes into loss I just accept it. In my opinion BTC has already found a bottom (I mentioned it in my previous posts as well) and after a long sideways trend its now time to see a bull run.

These bitcoin predictions and prophesy has alraedy failed in the past so there is no need to believe in them. Bitcoin is unpredictable and those who are making a prediction or prophesy are simply riding on the present uptrend. Relying on these predictions will only lead to bigger losses in the future. Cryptocurrency investors must learn how to use fundamental analysis and get themeselves always updated on the market so they can find the right time to buy coins.

That's correct also many of people sharing their fake prediction that may can cause your losses. It's better to wait and what gonna happens.

Besides of the benefits that you could get in crypto by getting yourself updated with everything that happens in crypto market, it also helps you learn and master the business or crypto business cycle and this could be helpful in making extra money by guiding people. When people know about your expertise, they will give you a call and would ask for consultancy. This is what so many businesses do. Consulting the experts really makes it happen.

I think it is high time to stop worrying about the so called experts and focus on the best move in the current bullish market. We have had this rise in Bitcoin couple of hours ago and it looks very attractive. Two of my friends got into the arena due to FOMO. I am HODLING and hope this thing goes up more. To be honest, once you have some good profits in hand, nothing else matter. Follow your own mind and not the hype.

we often hear speculations and predictions that are wrong and then harm us because we tend to follow mainstream predictions. from now on, stay away from other people's predictions, you know they're not necessarily right. so use own analysis and research, it will be more reliable and if your prediction is correct, of course you will be more proud of it

Nobody should trust prophesies.The market is not a religion. ;D I trust only my analysis.
I was expecting bitcoin to return back to 5K-6K USD,but I wasn't expecting this to happen so fast.
It looks like a stable growth,but there's no valid evidence for that.It must be some short term price pump.

Following the hype about any coins usually lead to losses and in terms of crypto market predictions no one is experts because the market is full of possibilities but the mistake most cryptoneirs usually make is that once someone predicted something will happen and it happened they usually believe whatever the person say.
Meanwhile, following ones heart as you said without put the concept behind coin creation and level of community support is not good either.

One way or another predictions are still estimated price only and none accurate one

But i respect your opinions mate,and besides daytrading is the riskiest part of investment and having good prediction can save a lot of money from the investors

Fud is part of ths circulation and without this people here will continue believe and buy even if this are not accurately

Very good answer in this topic. We must know how to analyze this market in the long run and only trust ourselves because anyone can predict. I think the uptrend of the market is coming and if you have basic knowledge, you should do it so you can have a better assessment of this market. This is a very good opportunity to make a profit this year and if you learn about this market then you will surely succeed soon if there are clear objectives when investing.

A lot of us who've been dealing with the market for years now already know it's pointless to follow these predictions or let's call it "prophecies". Some of them did happen but that's just mostly coinsidence i think. Anyone can come up with their own claim but their guess is just as good as yours if you know how to do market analysis. People have already grown out of trusting these prophecies at this point in time.

I think Bitcoin has been instrumental enough in changing the mindsets so far and right now, people who have been part of the crypto market for long know and understand that Bitcoin’s progress is something undeniable. It is gaining big value again and in addition to the ease it has engendered in the financial transactions and many institutional processes, it has mad man able to build businesses around the ideology as well.

Probably some people can make the right predictions but they do not share them with other people. Why should they do that if they know something which can help them make billions fast?

Meehn, and here we go again, these people are always looking for who to deceive. This time around I don't believe them again, cause when the price was at $3,500 range, they were the ones saying that the price will have to drop to $2,500 range before any bull run can take place. How can they turn now To be saying that it is supposed to be $4300 before there is going to be a bull run? They are just bunch of stupid deceiver, always looking foolish people to deceive. Why didn't they stick to what they said before which is $2,500? The price of bitcoin is already going to $6000 within few hours from now. Let them keep on with their stupid prophecy.

I am in a position to mention that the price of bitcoin will range between $ 6300 - $ 6700.
I don't really believe if bitcoin will reach higher prices this year.
although it cannot be predicted with certainty. when a bull run happens everything can happen.

In my case I respect the predictions and those who make them, but in my way of seeing the trading I do not believe anything, because I do not even believe in the prophets that predict so many things in the world, much less believe in the predictions they can make in the speculative market and Crypto.

Normally, I base my analysis on not taking into account predictions but looking for the reaction to the market, because I have realized that operating under reaction is much safer, because predicting it would be turning into Gambling.

There are many predictions that have made important characters, but it is not difficult to predict that at some time bitcoin will rise and probably much more than $ 20k since the information given by the market is that, if we analyze it from a speculative point of view supported under the philosophy of Wyckoff.

I think it will even reach $10k this year seeing the market price already in progress.But still we cannot tell exactly what will happen in the future as this crypto market is full of uncertainties.So we should always monitor the price charts and make a deeper research on the crypto coins so that we will all be responsible of our own actions.

Well as per the current markets are showing us some growth, we can expect a higher price for the bitcoins to be reaches then the price you are mentioning. Bull markets are about to start so the prices for each major altcoin may start hiking up. Peoples need to prepare themselves for the bull market.

Last time when the bull markets arrived, we see somewhat similar graph of bitcoins as it is now so expecting something better coming towards ourselves is not a wrong thought. Bitcoins will not actually show us growth in the price as per the faiths from the users but what I think is when the time will come, bitcoins will start showing us large growth which will make peoples like you start having faith in bitcoins again.

True Bitcoin value is growing very strongly and it makes me feel surprised about this. I think now is a very good opportunity for you to buy cheap coins because certainly after Bitcoin increases will be a big adjustment of Bitcoin and this is a great opportunity for altcoin to recover well this year. Personally, I am still holding Bitcoin and I will consider selling all at $7500 to invest in other coins

I can't truly understand how some of the peoples could predict the exact price for bitcoins or any other coin? There is always some unknown price fluctuation going on with the charts which is almost impossible to speculate upon. I think, those who predict the prices do it due to some kind of luck factor.

We might know when the markets would be up or down depending on the market conditions but exactly predicting the price for bitcoins is not something which could be trusted upon. And also in these situations, the one knowing the future price for bitcoins may be the richest individual as he can earn a lot over trading on the exact times.

People can only predict the price range or time range but can never predict the exact value a coin with be at an exact time, even with luck factor, except it is just a coincidence.

Most people that has even neared predicting close to perfection without speculating must definitely use the technical analysis tool to read the movement of the coin and will still not rely on that alone, but rather pick up some fundamental analysis to confirm the technical analysis prediction before they can arrive at a conclusion, no expert can ever boast of predicting the exact value, when he is not the one pumping the whole money alone into the market.

I am correcting your opinion, because I believe bitcoin will continue to go green until the end of this year. Today's price is more than USD 8000, meaning reaching USD 10,000 is not impossible.
I am pleased to see that the bitcoin price movement is very encouraging, although it may not be like 2017 but can prove that the opinions of experts are wrong, because they tend to be pessimistic about the future of bitcoin. Even though I was in a very optimistic position.

Cryptocurrencies are said to be unpredictable when it comes to its future prices and those people that use to predict it will always bound to fail unless they possess a third eye. All I can do is to guess what will be the next possible price of bitcoin based on its price history. Some experts believes that institutional investors are again entering the cryptocurrency investment and these would affect the market prices in the near future.

I don't think Bitcoin can be green until the end of the year because it is likely that the market will soon have a huge correction and Bitcoin may fall to $6000 before a higher price increase occurs at the end. The market is showing positive signs but you need to be careful because this can be a trap that causes investors to lose money and then they can buy it at cheaper prices. In my opinion the market is being controlled by a group of people and we cannot predict anything

Bitcoin - the legacy crypto
Bitcoin is up 67% on from $5265 on 01 May, 2019 to $8975 by month’s end.
In other developments companies like  AT&T announced accepting Bitcoin payments for its services. Whatsapp is enabling sending and receiving Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum and ZTX native token of the Zulu Republic platform for transactions, according to Zulu Republic.
Facebook is also setting foot into the crypto sphere through ‘GlobalCoin’ and a blockchain leg, that is bagging a whopping investment of $1 Billion from investors.
A recent study shows that it may lead a tripling of crypto users. Through these statistics, we see an active adoption of cryptocurrency by global companies which will pave way to a possible chance of mass adoption

The broader market excluding Bitcoin shot up to $125.6 Billion (highest on 30 May)

1 Bitcoin will always remain 1 Bitcoin while 1 Ethereum will always remain 1 Ethereum. We don’t know what will happen to their prices in future and what will be the lowest prices. But we know that so far the Ethereum and other coins are doing great and no doubt for the Bitcoin as it has proven its progress and performance. So, the benefits in the Bitcoin and other coins compel us to give them priority over others.

Technically, you are not quite correct

Given the number of Bitcoin hard forks in the past (and let's not forget about Ethereum Classic either), 1 bitcoin can in fact become 2,3, and even more bitcoins over time without you doing anything special (apart from having a few bitcoins, naturally). Whether the new forks will be worth anything is another question, though. Still, Bitcoin holders had been given essentially free bitcoins at the time of the Bitcoin Cash hard fork (here I refer to the fork that happened in August 2017, of course)

How many people, so many opinions. But it doesn't matter. The fact that bitcoin will has dropped in price that's for sure. Just do not expect a strong fall. I don't think bitcoin will drop below $ 6,000.
