I mean the halving is here.

Guys,what do you think?

You mean the halving.

If I were you I would stop expecting way too much just like before.
2017 is not the year of the halving it was July 2016 when it happened. So you cannot really connect the halving into when the bitcoin price will pump.
Just buy bitcoin. That is all you have to think about for now.
The cheaper the better. But when will you know when it is cheap? You decide.

There will a short term Bull run that should start after January or end of the month. But, do not expect the price to reach $20k. I think it will go back to $10k once again and might be $11k.

Historically Bitcoin price always went up after the halving year. So expect some big price shift in 2021.

It's still too early to say, we are in the deep market even if we can see this as the possibility of a sudden increase there may be a chance but let's not expect that high so we will not get disappointed when the bull run comes.
Even the halving is here, we cannot guarantee that next year, $20k will come.

Yeah,Thanks for correcting.
But back to 2017,The bitcoin market is so small,Maybe no one is manipulating the real market.The 2017 pump is mainly by the new thing exposure, especially when it comes to money.
Now in 2019,The bitcoin market is a very mature one,The manipulator is going to see this:people are expecting the pump.The halving is the very good reason to pump the market.And they will make a great profit.
Only my personal ideas, hahha, willing to hear everyone's thoughts

to find out then we have to wait for next year to get an answer, so we have to wait to find the answer. maybe at this time we can only look for possibilities that can happen, to get a definite answer then it will be difficult

Yeah,I think you've got a point.Low down our expecting, Don't get the disappointment, hahah, Thanks

Well... we have the precedence and my personal opinion is that we're going to reach new all time highs in the next year and therefore enter the price discovery mode who could launch us God knows where. Maybe to the long-awaited moon?  ;D

It all depends on the forces acting on the market. Once the halvening happens miners probably won't sell Bitcoin at these prices as they won't even breakeven on their mining activities. So what are they going to do? - Relieve the selling pressure from the market until a point where they are happy with their profits.

Let's see the historical data:
- First halving, on November 2012 : Bitcoin increased from $11 to $1,100 in 2013 (one year later)
- Second halving, on July 2016 : Bitcoin increased from $600 to $20,000 in 2017 (one year later)
- Third halving, on May 2020 : Bitcoin increased from $6,000-$8,000 to $??? in 2021 (one year later)

Based on historical data, the maximum rate of BTC in 2021 (not in 2020) should be more than $20,000 (ATH in the second halving).
However, there is no guarantee, mate.  ;)

everyone knows a lot of speculations and predictions about halving from famous people in crypto about 2020 later, but to guess the price of bitcoin can reach $ 20k I think it's very heavy, for fear that what we hope cannot be achieved can be crazy, the price of bitcoin cannot at the pump, so let's sit together looking at it together

If you are looking the price of the bitcoin before it came from the lower value that just a few people saw the potential it will grow, by the time goes by the amount of the bitcoin slowly rising and becomes profitable for the two to three years we can see the difference of the price, and then in 2017 the cost of the coin reaches for over 20 thousand dollars this is the highest money recorded, and many investors of the bitcoin becomes rich and grab this opportunity this is the start of the popularity of the bitcoin, and the coin becomes stable for three years, and in this 2019 the price of the currency falls before the end of the year, and they noticed this immediately they pull out their money to save for the long term investment again. But on the positive side, the price of the bitcoin is slowly pumping still and hoping that the price rise with a profitable outcome.

Just trade bitcoin and make some dollars, bitcoin has been very volatile and keeps giving traders good profit that ones that dare to buy low and wait enough to take profit. We don't know when $20k will happen again but bitcoin remains a good investment.

For good reason? halving will be here at any random situations for the market this year as the start of 2020, I wouldn't expect beyond my simple expectations. We will be reaching soon to that price of $20k per btc, but unfortunately it's still hard to day a specific value on that huge figure. The fluctuating market was still struggling to recover by now, and we needed more time before recovery will be fully substantiate in order for peak price to be achieved.

We will see as well how big the hype will be. In 2017 even morning show celebrities were overreacting about Bitcoin.

Halving is a few months away, and looking back, end-of-year always posts awful price action and lame market movement, so I won't go so far into expecting anything good happening before 2020. After the halving is what's really interesting considering that we're in the greens for most of the halvings over the course of 10 years, and it will be no surprise if we get a small bullish movement after the halving.

Don't predict or hope too much just because halving will happen next year 2020. Is it too early to predict what would happen next year 2020 after the halving or during the halving?
I think don't be conscious about the halving because halving is a normal state of the crypto which is happening every 4 years so there is no huge tendency that bitcoins will fluctuate and bounce back again around  $20,000 so it is kind of a merely prediction.
All we need to do right now is to stored bitcoins in our wallet so that we will be ready at some point if a bull run of bitcoin or market comes again. That was the best thing we need to do right now.

That's right, he defintely did not connect his thoughts to previous bitcoin trends appropriately but did you know that the price of bitcoin after halving tend to see a good rise? This is why many people are assuming that the price may rise a bit though i doubt it will go that high.

I still believe that bitcoin will increase it's price to $20K next year because there are still a lot of people who still doesn't know about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, that is why there is a huge chance that not only in the price of $20k will bitcoin reach it's price maybe even more. So keep holding your bitcoins.

After. Yes, that might the correct timeline into it.
But when?
20k in December 2017. So that means it took 1 year and 5 months before the halving became more fruitful.
Now, the question.
What time is when you buy? Is this the cheapest we could get or there will be more at 2021? (May 2020 is the halving right?)

What bullrun? Nobody in this world really knows what will happen in the future. Crypto is very complicated right now and its hard to predict its movements, even if there are positive news it doesn’t really affect the prices that much. History will not guarantee future results.

Many expectations about the halving and that’s the fact bitcoin has been volatile as always. So in my view, there’s a huge possibility to see it at $20k. But, as many said we cannot determined when indeed. The other options is we can accumulate some btc then wait for it to increase to have profit.

Too many people believe in the uptrend market in 2020. So I think it's hard for the market to go up like everyone expected, my thinking BTC will increase slightly in 2020 and will not be like as everyone expected. 20k $ is really too high compared to the current price and it is difficult for BTC to do that, it is best to wait for a cheap altcoin to buy from now

Accumulate if you have that attitude to take the risk, incoming halving mostly brings a good effects to the entire industry. Everything will be depends
from how you understand and make things possible to your investment. keep your money where your knowledge and skills are as it will be your guide
in order to anticipate where market will proceed.

hahah,I think you have a very good sense about the market bull run time,hahaha,Thanks buddy

Bitcoin pump in the price might not materialize immediately after halving come 2020 it might happen many months after,  the charting analysis above has painted the picture of the possible outcome based on the fact that price history repeats itself thus the best bet is to but and hodl or accumulate more and for price action of Bitcoin to unfold.

Well, it was a year after then. Looking back upon the two halving, it was a year after then when bull run starts to came up. You cannot literally say that when halving occur then price would happen to increase the same time though.  Let us assume that may be in 2021? Or probably later on, well, I am no analyst but I am trying to be more realistic man.

i can not imagine when people buying a lot of bitcoin now , sell everything they have now to take this chance but after halving occured , the price of bitcoin plunged down to -50‰ or worse.

what you gonna do?

sell it immediately? wait for a month or two then if the price still did not move, sell it anyway?
think for the worst scheme before making any investment eventhough you know that there is a big chance , therr is always an unexpected thing to be anticipated.

Prices will certainly increase before halving, but I won't expect too much. $ 10,000 is my goal for BTC until May 2020, a lot of people hope BTC will increase to 20k or even 50k. That is really absurd and impossible, pretty sure they are holders from 2017 to the present

Awesome chart. I’ve tried to convey this same information but the chart does a better job than explaining in words. I think there is a correlation between huge price increases and the halving, but it’s gradual at first as the graph shows.

I won't expect if it would increase before the halving but I don't think $10,000 is close to the price range before halving. I see 2020 as 2019 and I think the price of Bitcoin in Q1 2020 will be lower than $5,000. Although this is just my own speculation but who knows maybe it will grow even more surpassing the $10,000 price range that we expected.

^ It is well said bud,  a good explanation to them, it is still unpredictable but if you have you have a technical analyzation like this. Just kinda good and probably you will get the right answer. This is only technical analysis and we don't have any assurance that it will happen. We should extend our patience and wait at that right time. Nobody can tell when the Bitcoin price will pump up and let us wait for that and only the time can reveal the truth. I have 80% feel that after this halving happened Bitcoin will pump up just like before, that was my own.

The halving is not here. Previously big pumps were happening after halvings so if you're looking at historic patterns you should get your money ready for Autumn/Winter 2020.
As for your question let's break it in 2:
Will the price pump to 20k? Sure! I'm 90% sure that it will.
Next year? Hard to say. Historical growth will point us to 8-9k next year. This can make us pump higher but shorters will be waiting for that. The market is being manipulated to keep the price low so I wouldn't get my hopes up for anything above 10k.

it can happen, it all depends on demand, if demand is higher we will see the price of bitcoin fly to $ 20k let alone have a halving event next year, isn't that interesting?  ;D

Next stop would be $50K,so forget that $20K and the halving is expected to bring such kind of bullish trend hopefully in 2020 or in 2021.

But no one actually knows when it will happen. :)

Bitcoin bull run will possibly rush on 2021 which the possibility if the timeline will the guide, it could start by Q3 of 2020, that a long wait for someone who had been praying for Santa to come this Xmas. But I would really be thinking about more than $20k as well.  It just can't happen from pump after pump because a lot will get rich there has to be dumps too just like how it went from $6600 to $7200 last week.  If it doesn't happen by next year, I guess we are all going to be disappointed again by our expectation.

Wish $50,000 have a chance,now just buy it ;D

Better to give up into thinking that will come again in just a small amount of time. Much better if not at all.
A surprise had always been a good thing right?
That smile that cannot get out and will almost tear your lips because it grows too large.

That happened to me in 2017 of December but now I dont want for it to ever happen again in just a blink.
Slow and steady is better. That way, the FUD makers will not even bother.  ;D

You can see halving trips before, bitcoin doesn't go up in the year that halving happened at that time but it will happen the next year in 2021. But I only look at history, but of course, I hope it can go faster in 2020.

2019:

January price: $4000

December price: $7000

had many fluctuations and even reached $ 13000. some people have the courage to make price forecasts of $250,000

Bitcoin can take 50 of golds market share hit 250 000 cnbc (https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-can-take-50-of-golds-market-share-hit-250-000-cnbc)

My opinion is that the price can reach $25,000 within 5 years. I speak of stable price, because if we have pump and dump it is quite possible that the price increases a lot in the next 5 years and then drops to $ 25,000 and stays in this zone for a long time.

PS: Don't think that the price will increase soon in May, it is possible that the price increase will start to be more noticeable from the end of December next year.

I think the halving is not yet on effect. Look at how the prices moves in the market today. It still struggling to make a run despite of the good news we have in cryptocurrency world because of btc halving. The rise that we expected might not come until next year. It might come on the 2021 after the halving.

I think you've got a point.if people are buying BTC and when good news coming,the selling pressure is going to be so big.So it's hard to say

people think like that and prepare their assets before it arrives. however, the potential for halving to achieve high prices is enormous. that can be seen from the previous halving, especially in 2017 when bitcoin prices are popular. if there is good news, it will also be a supporting factor for prices to go higher even if they don't reach the price of $ 20k, I still believe bitcoin prices can be very high.

it is been proven that a lot of people has bought bitcoin since it was at $10000 and guess what those buyers doing now?

yes cut that the losses , they can not resist to do that , they can not resist to get their value dropped that high and the most important they forgot the goal of buyig bitcoin at that moment is to support the halving day and hoping for the rewards later.

this is just a little bit drop , don't you worry and hold it until the day finally come.
be a believer and your faith will have a bigger rewards.
do painful things first now and chill on the penthouse in the future.
next year is expected as the next bitcoin ATH. do take the risk now or never.

I have no idea but when we look back at the halving history of Bitcoin the price always increases. But no one is really sure this halving will help BTC increase in the bear market, I hope Bitcoin price can exceed 10000$ and be stable for a long time in 2020. I do not set the target too high because the current market is very boring and there are too few investors interested in the market at the moment. As long as the price goes up to $ 10,000 and I will sell all the Bitcoin I hold and wait for a better price to continue investing in it.

I think if you really believe it, buy and hold and know the risk first is important. But for me bitcoin still worth to buy in this level of price, although halving maybe not really change bitcoin price, sometime other condition can attract people to buy bitcoin and make it's price increased. But for me, either price move when halving come or not, we should make fast decision after it come/

In fact, no one doubts that Bitcoin can once again reach the price of $ 20,000, but the whole problem is how long it takes for Bitcoin to reach that level.  It seems to me that the situation on the cryptocurrency market has changed dramatically compared to what happened in 2017, but you also need to take into account that the attitude of the public towards cryptocurrency has also changed and today everyone understands and realizes the risks of the cryptocurrency market.  But if we talk about the benefits of investing in bitcoin, then first of all, everything will depend on how long the investor makes an investment, since only a long investment can bring a good profit.  But if cryptocurrency users who buy Bitcoin at today's price, because they have planned short-term investments, risk losing if the market goes down.

I think there is a possibility that bitcoin's price will reach it's price to $20,000 next year of 2020 because bitcoin halving will also start next year. I also expect that bitcoin will go beyond to $20,000 next year because a lot of people all over the world still not yet knows about bitcoin.

Last time halving only we have seen the best growth in the marketplace.
As like we can expect the growth for sure, last time after halving end of the year bitcoin price goes to massive value in price chart. Amount we cannot imagine will lively present in the chart.

Dunno.

What I am interested in is how it passes 20 grand. Will it nudge it and fall back for months, butt up against it for weeks on end before agonisingly cracking it or breeze straight on through? If it breezes then that'll be a sign it'll be on its way to considerably higher.

I thought the return to $1000 would be a vast undertaking but it turned out to be a casual stroll in the park.

When you look at the start of the year price and end of the year price it tells you a lot of stuff but it doesn't tell you the whole story of it. Look at the peak of this season for example. So, what you should do is get the "average price of the year" which basically talks about what the average price was for the longest days, if it was 13k for 100 days that's important but if it was $13k for 2 days that is not really that important.

For this year, it was around 9 thousand dollars because let's face it we didn't spent too much time around $13k but we did spent a lot of time around 7 thousand and there was a huge 6 month period between 9 and 11 thousand dollars so the average became 9 thousand dollars thanks to last 2 months being heavily under 9 thousand. I say we can "reach" 20 thousand dollars in 2020, it is possible (not saying it WILL happen but possible) but I doubt it will have a 20 thousand average.

That's true,back to 2017,People only think buying BTC getting the benefits,But now people aware of the danger in the capital markets

If the price of bitcoin rose well in previous years, this does not mean at all that it will also grow in the future. Therefore, to forecast its price, analysis of previous growth is not significant. Bitcoin will rise and fall in price more than once. And about any specific amounts can hardly be argued with a high degree of probability.

My speculation about that, maybe halving can possibly bring $15000, about $20000 maybe it is all depends on how people see about it. For now, i think a lot of people already accumulate bitcoin in this and lower range price.  When high price come, usually who already hold will sell their coins to get profit, and at the end, it is all depends on how much buyer still want to buy bitcoin itself.

Bitcoin is a valuable asset so everyone know the long term potential, But I didn't see any halving in this month. I expect some having will occur and it make huge boom on Bitcoin. Most of the peoples are already start the buying so end of the year we expect 8k USD on Bitcoin. All are waiting for the upcoming bull run so we see how it will going to moon.

There is a progress indeed but comparing it to last year then...

Maybe more i think. I would say $25k in the next 2-3 years and up to $40k in 5 years

I agree with you. Few months after the halving the price will start rising

I don't really think it's still bear market,It's already in a new price row

Indeed. Halving is now happening, so i hope bitcoin's price could reach to $20,000 because a lot of people would like to gain back all of their losses in the past year of 2018, that is why it will be really worth it if bitcoin will have a big pump next year of 2020, even it takes a lot of time as long it increases it's price.

There is no correct answer to this question. This has been asked so many times here and every one has its own predictions about that. Right now price of bitcoin is down and our eyes are whether the bitcoin price will go to 10k or 5k USD. Let's hope it make it to 10k, not 5k.

Well, I don't want to explain this, but what you need to know is, most of my assets are currently in crypto form, specifically bitcoin. I do this to prepare for halving, and believe in the potential of bitcoin. if there is another chance, I might try to get a large amount of bitcoin before halving occurs.

We have to go forward, whatever history is good about bitcoin, we cannot guess it in the future, even expert predictions are not necessarily good for bitcoin prices. I only see continuous market movements that I know, although I have not determined price and positive thinking is very important so that it is not affected by FUD from any news.

If you already pick all on crypto, i think you must really confident with your investment. Actually out there a lot of people do same thing as you and include me, big part of my investment is bitcoin and i really wait for halving. Maybe if halving really bring good price of bitcoin like what it did in past, a lot of people might be can take profit from it.

before $ 20,000, Bitcoin must return to $ 10,000, because that is very important,
maybe if you have a better Bitcoin traded and add your Bitcoin assets

Wow what a smart guy you are. To reach 20 thousand we must first be at 10 :D Fucking genius!


If not in 2020 it will happen in 2021. Bitcoin is working and has no critical bugs but a lot of interest from the public. Something like that will move forward we only don't know at what pace. I doubt it will take more than 5 years for us to break 20 thousand and go to higher levels. That's if we won't have a bubble run but a steady growth instead.

I've noticed no one in this thread has taken into account the wider economy. If there's a genuine and prolonged shit I don't see a bright future for Bitcoin's price for a lengthy time. Since its birth BTC has existed in world markets that have had a near unbroken cruise upwards. If that undergoes a fundamental change then every expectation may get binned.

It will definitely be cause for a short term pullback. I think David's take on that (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5140701.msg53409647#msg53409647) is a pretty good one. We saw two harsh 2-3 week long corrections off the $1,100-$1,300 area in January and March 2017. We should expect similar resistance at the ATH this time around.

After 2+ years of consolidation, I think a double top at $20K is pretty much impossible though. The pullback mentioned above will be a massive "buy the dip" opportunity.

Some of the investors in the bitcoin market does not have a clue about the other markets and how the economy works and so is the reason you do not see anyone talking about the economic situation, if there are possibilities that we will go into economic recession during the time of the halving then everything is doomed and all these factors will play a major role in the bitcoin market rally.

No one can give an accurate guess but most of us are expecting a new ATH will be set next year or 2021. A lot are speculating about it because of what happened way back. Every halving resulted into a big increase that's why we are also expecting that history repeat itself. But some says the upcoming halving is different from the past and the price won't go up like the usual. Like others speculation on price going up, those who say there's no price increase gonna happen after halving is also not accurate.

I have read some arguments that the market reaction on the next year halving has already happened in June and July this year but I think they are new to this market. Halving years has always be extremely bullish years and I expect bitcoin to cross $20,000 next year no matter the attack from government.

it is still too soon to think that in June and July this year is a reaction from halving that will occur next year, because the increase in that month was also triggered by the SEC.
however, I think that the reaction from halving will actually occur in the coming year, that is, before halving occurs.  I feel that the increase will be higher than this year, so I think that after halving, the price of bitcoin will definitely be higher.

There is a possibility but I am guessing it would be in December of 2020 again.

May 2020 will be the time of the halving but it doesn't mean that the price will bounce in a large scale just like that in a small amount of time.
A larger chance will be after 6 months.
So it could be mid November or just like I said December.
That is when they will feel that block rewards are really hurting because it is way too small to profit and the market will try to equal that.

In the past, halving has helped Bitcoin to grow strongly and the price has risen 2-3 times higher than the previous period. But now bitcoin price is quite high so I'm not too optimistic about it. There will be price increases but I think not much. We need more people to invest in this market like 2017

To be straight and honest, I don't think so.
It looks like many Bitcoin users expect from every new year to be another 2017 and that price might go up to 20000$ or even more but that is very hard to predict because everything depends on the market and investor's mood.
Currently price seems to be recovering and we might even come to 8000$ by the end of the year but to get to 20000$ takes a long way, continuous and steady growth and I don't know if next year that will be possible.

People got crazy when the price keeps pumping and it creates demand that's why we see the price became wild but hopefully we can see those orders back to see the another historical events of halving effect and hopefully we can see another $20k at piece since if this one will gonna happen we can see more people will comeback to gain with bitcoins.

Many thought Bitcoin will go to $5000 but $6800 proved to be lowest before current pumping start. There is no low or nobody can say whats the lowest before bitcoin starts an upward moment. Best is to start buying bitcoin at dips and HODL while bitcoin goes up.

Those taught is only made by the people who are afraid on the market condition but since the block halving is nearly happen for sure the feeling's of those who doubt change that's why we can see those current pump happening right now and provably we can see those up continuously.

Let's see guys if we can get a big future coming up next year.

You mean that huge amount next year? even halving is near, we can't expect that much pumping next year because bullish market is still happening and we cant decide on our own that price will reach. we can expect next year that many will recognize bitcoin and the lifted price would not dependent on halving. that's what I think that possible to happen next year..

We are not 100% sure about that but most people predict that the price of bitcoin starts to rise up after its halving. I'm not sure about the price of bitcoin because we still do not what will be the result of halving. Then, bitcoin halving is one of the reasons why many people have their hope on the price of bitcoin because they think it will gonna repeat the year 2017 where bitcoin almost hit the 20,000$.

Look the truth is NOBODY here knows what bitcoin will do, nobody out there knows it neither but at least there are rich enough people that can change the price out there, those whales are not here and even tho some people fool themselves but they are not reading here neither.

So, the reality is that technically speaking there is no reason why bitcoin can't be 20 thousand dollars, it can very well be 20 thousand dollars in one hour, all we need is to buy all orders from current price to 20 thousand dollars and you have it. However reality is that you may also have bitcoin at 1000 dollars as well, it is just as likely and just as technically possible, all we need is someone selling enough bitcoins to cover all buys from here to one thousand dollars. Whatever ends up happening in 2020 will be a surprise for us.

It may be 3500$ or 20,000$. Bitcoin can swing in any direction and no one can stop that not even whales. We have seen current rise in price of bitcoin and there is no reason for this rise. Likewise bitcoin may fall or rise next year without any reason. Don’t expect any price of bitcoin. Just buy when it is low and HODL.

although many people believe that bitcoin will increase again next year, of course price movements will not be able to increase sharply in the short time when entering 2020, everything will definitely need a process and will not be able to increase in a short time. it could even be that bitcoin price movements will experience a sharp decline because basically market price movements cannot be predicted with certainty

talk about the potential after halving, then the price of $ 20k can be achieved after that. but, again in reality, that we cannot guess with certainty when and what bitcoin will become. however, based on information and history of price increases after halving, it really helps increase the price of bitcoin. however, to see that potential, the price of bitcoin needs to be in the $ 15k range before halving occurs.

Actually this has not shown to the level of $ 15000 and it is still half of the current price, maybe 1 month more bitcoin will reach like that, Yes we always look at history before it happens halving then there will be an increase also even more significant but for this year indeed can't guess it and only time can determine the actual price of bitcoin.

A lot of people hope bitcoin will increase in 2020, and of course this will depend on the whales and those who control this market, if whales have accumulated enough BTC in the past, I believe they will pump Bitcoin in 2020, and if they are still not satisfied with the bitcoins they have, I think the price will continue to go down and lower than it is now.

I believe there will be bull run happened before and after halving but it's quite hard to predict at what price bitcoin will be but indeed according to the previous chart which is required approximately a year to reach the highest price after halving then probably new all time high wouldn't happened on next year but in bitcoin world everything looks possible so every possibility will have equal chance and for me as long there will be no massive dump i think it's quite enough

There is one important factor, the investment has to come from financial institutions to kick start the rally, if not where you you think billions will be coming to the market. No one in the right mind will buy well above the market valuation and if you really want to see a crash price like that pray for a software flaw in the trading platform you are trading and it might make you happy :P.

There are many whales in the market who have a lot of coins and then there are scammers who are holding billions worth of coins and hence anything is possible in this regard.

The year 2020  market growth isn't about the whales holding as much possible and pumping the market. This time the growth expectations and the price is much speculated associating with the upcoming halving. Few months left for the event to happen, but now on there needs to take place growth. Possibly from the starting month of the year we'll experience decline or growth which end up with a trend change by the days close to halving or after halving.

Most people will be disappointed by the outcome of next year's halving. They are expecting a price pump, which I doubt if it will never occur but until after the halving. So, we need to prepare our mind and not rely on the upcoming event to predict the price of Bitcoin

halving carries considerable potential in bitcoin to date. I feel that halving is the thing that keeps bitcoin prices at $ 7k, and there is even resistance to continue to rise to higher prices. somehow the price of bitcoin can reach $ 20,000 after halving, but that has great potential. until now we can only wait for that.

A series of good and bad events can make or break Bitcoin, halving is good news but it could hamper the growth if we read  to many distractions like hacking, we should not rely on halving alone, it should be back by a lot of good news and new people coming in to invest and support the adoption of Cryptocurrency.

We should not expect a lot but it is free to dream, right? But if you are basing others' speculations on what you will do with your investments, please don't. You should follow your own instincts because it is your own money. When you lose, you can't blame them but only yourself.

I am an apprentice in the field of cryptocurrency.  The biggest problem I have now, is this good time to buy bitcoin? is this really good time to take Bitcoin? :-\ :-\ Need Help  :-\

Dollar cost average ! Buy a specific amount of dollars per month but try to spread it accross several dips. Over all it's always a great time to buy after a 20% crash.

If we are talking about the prospects of the cryptocurrency market for 2020, then for Bitcoin to reach $ 20,000 there must be good reason, but I do not see any visible prerequisites for such a situation.  The fact is that cryptocurrency users really want a repeat of the situation in 2017, but this cannot happen, because in those years the popularity of cryptocurrencies was much higher and investors were much more active, which is why cryptocurrencies grew in price two years ago.

The big reason to come up next year is the halving and based on the past price history it shows that halving gather most huge percentage runs but let's see on how the halving will take effect and we shouldn't closed the discussion if we really reach that or not since anything has possibilities and the adoption hasn't stop yet.

Mhhh I see a relation between the traditional stock market and cryptocurrencies. So maybe the smartmoney just went into stocks while we went down a bit. Stable price is some wishful thinking with a halving in May.

the fact that we cannot see that possibility before halving actually takes place. it's just that the potential can be achieved if the price of bitcoin rises to around $ 15,000 before halving, or afterward. this will allow the price of bitcoin to rise to near $ 20,000 a few months after halving.
However, right now we are still guessing, but if the price of bitcoin can exceed the price of $ 20,000 in 2020, then that will be an achievement for the new ATH. I really believe that the price of bitcoin will pump after halving, so prepare yourself. although the price of bitcoin does not reach $ 20,000, there is a possibility that the price is close to it.

in my opinion the price of bitcoin in 2020 will not reach $ 20,000 because if we look at the history of bitcoin the new bitcoin will pump up a year after being reduced by half. if bitcoin is reduced by half in May 2020 then maybe bitcoin will increase in the middle of 2021. but this is just a prediction that can be right and wrong. and in my opinion we shouldn't expect too much about bitcoin which is reduced by half next year because the current market situation is different from the past. My prediction this year is maybe the highest price of bitcoin is $ 13,000.

From all indication of what has happened during halving there is a strong likely hood that price of Bitcoin will increase significantly as compared to the height of Bitcoin we have seen in the past which means Bitcoin will move above $20,000 before the end of next year.

$ 20,000 might be easy to achieve for bitcoin, if a lot of new people grow with widespread adoption, it feels easy for bitcoin, but I don't want to expect too much next year to at least try to buy it a little when it's cheap, everyone keeps monitoring the price movements when halving remembers that many crypto communities expect something better to come next year, no one knows it isn't

This year has been good overall if considered we did not had too much of a sudden rise or fall frequently and was on a stability price whenever it picked up a range. 2020 could be a growing year as btc prices have being stable and if this continues small and steady rise will only help the bitcoin users and its investors too.

There is a huge possibility that Bitcoin reaches $20k next year probably near halving. Because of the halving the block reward will get halved which will make Bitcoin mining expensive for the miners or maybe a loss making venture. If miners leave, then it can create problem for the whole network. So the price need to keep up with the reduced supply to keep miners stick to the bitcoin.
Also, 2017 correction has been completed. Price has room to grow now.

Yes looking at the year 2019, the price of bitcoin was good and also there was not a big dump in this year, so we can say that if halving happen in the next year then it will definitely cause a good effect on the price of bitcoin in 2020. Also looking at the past halving we can say that if the trend continue like that then price will increase and the investors too.

I highly doubt about it if the market has enough time to grow now. Since it's more likely a recovery from last year and 2020 isn't very bullish i think. If there's a problem about of the miners then there would be a possibility that the price would go down or maybe it will create another bottom this year.

I also don't believe in $20k levels before the halving. I expect rather $16-16.8k and then a beautiful nose dive back down to $12k. New ath either at the end of 2020 or 2021 as the end of the bull run.

Bitcoin price can go to $20k levels anytime, before or after the halving. We need to be patient because we still have more than 4 months before the halving moment happens, so we need to use this time to buy more bitcoin before the price start increases. In the waiting time, we can see many things that will happen with bitcoin, including the down of the price, so we need to be careful, and if the price is down deeper than the price now, I think we should prepare the money to buy more bitcoin.

even for the achievement of a price of $ 16k it is very good if it happens before halving. however, the potential for new ATH is very large in the coming 2021. but, it seems like when the price of bitcoin rises due to halving this year, there is a big possibility that the new ATH will be reached before the end of this year.

bitcoin will be reduced by half in may but in my opinion it will not make the value of bitcoin immediately increase to $ 20k. because ordinary bitcoin will need time to be able to reach the bull run. bitcoin usually takes a year to get a bull run which means maybe bitcoin will be a bull run in 2021. and for this year the highest price of bitcoin in my prediction is $ 15k.

Nobody doesn't have any clue about the Bitcoin bull run, but everybody is very positive about the Bitcoin price in the coming year. We are very close Bitcoin halving which we have seen after halving the price of Bitcoin increased a lot. So many traders are expecting the same thing in the coming days.

Actually it is hardly to speculate if Bitcoin will have $20,000 just like before but I am pretty sure that Bitcoin will pump. Much better if we will take the opportunity of having a cheap price to purchase so that when the market enter the bullish trend it would be quite good profit. Everyone in the community have positive speculation that this would he a great year for Bitcoin so all we need to do is just to hung in there and wait for the uptrend.

   Many people speculate because that is trading all about. It's hard to do that, it's one of the reasons why many people
lose money in trading. I am a hodler, my speculations about the future of crypto-market is always positive. For me that is
connected, if you are investing in long-term you need to believe in what you are investing and to be positive about the
future of what you investing in. I believe in higher price then 20000$, I don't know will it happen this or next year, all
I know that is that I will be here!

With start of every new year people start to have high hopes about Bitcoin price. Their predictions are often driven by emotions and sentiments rather then analisys and realistic situation on the market.
Also, 20000$ is often seen as some magic price level.
When it comes to Bitcoin nothing is impossibe but still I don't think Bitcoin will touch 20000$ this year.

Every one have dreaming with bitcoin come true with higher price above $20k but we don't know our dreaming really higher or not because many time we failed by bitcoin always have lower price, we can't prediction with bitcoin become back to higher price if always get bad think with bitcoin keep down every time.

basically no one can predict the exact price. but it could happen if the trust and enthusiasm of investors/traders to Bitcoin returned to how it used to be. The problem is that there are currently too many pros and cons from the government to associate with Bitcoin. in addition, Volume 2017 and now certainly experience differences because of the bear market that occurred for almost 2 years

Still have chance for bitcoin back $20,000 because just pass two weeks in new year bitcoin have raise near $9,000 and eleven months later give chance for bitcoin can back $20,000 or not, seeing statistic of in two weeks look bitcoin have bigger chance going back to higher price but how situation in China want to accept bitcoin as legal currency and wanna banned.

yeah. its possible to bitcoin reach $20,000 if the market conditions always good like few days ago bitcoin price show good sign and untill now bitcoin price still rise price. good sign to start 2020 in cryptocurrency, preveoust i think that bitcoin increase price because there is war between iran and US, but i am wrong the war there is not relation with bitcoin price and bitcoin really has value

I don't think that halvening is already in place. Look at how rates are rising in today's market. Despite the good news we have in the world of cryptocurrency coins due to btc halving, it still struggles to make a break. Could not come the rise that we predicted until next year. It could come after halving on the 2021.

if we can look at history in previous years, when bitcoin was reduced by half, usually after that there would be a significant increase, but of course it cannot be ascertained because bitcoin price movements cannot be predicted precisely. at least we must remain optimistic if the bullish market will come after half of the bitcoin is happening and maybe it can affect the interest of new investors will come back because they don't want to be left behind to be able to buy bitcoin when the price is still low

Each and every price movement with bitcoin is associated with the halving. This has made bitcoin price predictions and the expectation to be high. Everywhere the talk is all about the halving and the impact of the same over the bitcoin price. The present year will provide a bigger growth than the previous year.
