this year btc rate hope to $13000/$14000..?
im hold 2 btc 2018 jan $13900

No one knows when bitcoin will hit those prices again. It could be this year, or next year, or in 5 years, etc. If you're impatient, maybe investing is not for you.

All price related discussions belong in the Speculation (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=57.0) section. There are already plenty of similar topics opened there.

Well,  we don't know if bitcoin will increase on that price maybe not maybe yes.  But if we based on previous bull run in 2016 to 2017 i think this there are possibility that price of bitcoin will increase.  And what you need to now is just wait patiently and be ready in some possible events that will happe.

Thats already a huge stake. Your asset down by big negative value but its okay as long you wouldnt sell it now as market tends to go down a bit.


Charts can be analyze so there is a chance to hit that mark this year. This dive is expected based on many traders analyses. But of course prediction isnt accurate but IMO we can surpass what OP wishing for as the pattern already showing a bull mark but yes correction already implace prior to that.

looks like you can stand even longer waiting for the price to goes up?you can just get out and make break even last 2019 3rd quarter because the price Hit almost $14,000 and  still you carry to hold until now?
but why much concern about that $13-14k when we already touched that value recently?
anyway maybe it is better if you will just dont expect too much now and again wait like what you did for 2 years now.

Are you in hurry or what? Why don't you just continue to hold on it and wait because we can't really tell if we can see $13000/$14000 this year. You also have to look that we have one catalyst, that is the bitcoin block halving.

Others hold more than 2 BTC, but they can't do anything at this point. If you wanted to get huge profit then the only strategy is to just hold and have the mental toughness because the price is going on another downside today.

Does this means that you bought during $13900? it's not clear so I'm assuming that you bought during this peak. And if that was correct, sorry if you got a wrong entry but it doesn't mean that you won't recover again.

Wait until the market becomes calm again and keep on holding it. While waiting for the recovery, set a price when you want to sell and as much as possible you can buy every dip now.

Do not bear to hold your bitcoin in the long run because at this time bitcoin is difficult to predict its increase this year bitcoin has not reached $ 14,000 and this is still in the first quarter there is still time maybe this year will reach it because it is expected that the increase will occur halving in the coming May.
You should not check the market at a time like this because you will feel uncomfortable if you see the red market continuing for a short time.

Unfortunately, but none of us have a crystal ball to answer your question. We can only observe the market and make assumptions.
At the moment, it seems that the price of Bitcoin is approaching a major collapse. However, don't worry about it. Historical Bitcoin price charts show that the price begins to rise a few months after halving. I think the very likely scenario we will see this year is that before halving the price will drop a lot, while in the second half of the year it will start to rise quickly and the level of $14,000 is very likely. I think that this year it is quite possible to achieve even a new ATH. So do not sell anything, just hold and patiently wait for the price, thanks to which you will leave this investment with a very nice income.

Yes, we still have much time to see bitcoin price will rise higher, but it is difficult for this moment for bitcoin to back to the higher rate. We already at the downtrend this month, although we already saw the bitcoin price can hit $10k level price, and soon, bitcoin price will be back to that price and even will reach another high price. We have the same hope that the price will increase in the halving time that will come in May, but we cannot do anything except wait for that time. Perhaps, we can check the bitcoin price every day or week to see if the bitcoin price can move to a higher rate or not so we can decide on when we need to buy more bitcoin.

I think do not panic when conditions like this are because the market is being corrected then the OP must hold on to hold the 2 BTC until there is a profit, it is useless now in CL because it will not produce results and the market is not stable anymore.

Mental and don't panic is really needed right at a time like this we should not be lulled by any FUD news that will make our panic so big that selling at a low price and that is a stupid thing.
Stay afloat because in my view 2 BTC is big if bitcoin goes up then you will get a large percentage.

how long can you hold that 2 btc?what if we did not meet that amount this year?i think you should hold that still until reaching what you desired price.

because i believe that you will not be contented with that $14,000 value because if does?you should have sold that BTC  last year .
what about waiting for next 2 years or so?anyway that is your decision and we are only here to advice and boost you.

BroTip: Don't state how much you hold. You might get targeted in the future. It's also irrelevant for your question....

Other than that, try to forget your BTC for a while.
My estimate is $50k-$70k in July-August 2021, which would be the next ATH.

You could leave at a total of $100k - $140k if you are lucky. Then buy back 2 BTC once it drops below $20k a year or two/three later...

I guess you are one of those who doesn't have a choice but to just wait.
You bought at a large price indeed but there is no telling when bitcoin will grow again.
Just hold tight and maybe put your seat belt on too because you will never know when it would suddenly gain value again.

Don't rush it or you will just make it worse.
Trust me, you don't want to be that guy which is in the corner and don't know what to do anymore because of losses.

Bitcoin is deflationary
Money is inflationary

Bitcoin cannot be created out of thin air.
Money can be created out of thin air.

Logic dictates that IF and only IF Bitcoin survives it WILL gain more and more value.

Well it's true that the best choice is to survive, we will get the best value someday, I think don't worry too much about bitcoin because he will one day grow rapidly according to the times especially much rumors about the big adoption of bitcoin to other businesses so that bitcoin is widely known to the public and also the price is skyrocketing.

The only hope this year is halving if that happens then you will see that bitcoin moves according to your target.

Right now BTC is dropping very badly after reaching nearly $11k and going down again which is not a Bull sign at all, I suggest you to wait till halving occurs we are very near to it have some patience and hold your savings. Don't be in a hurry and don't panic and sell if the price is dropping, I guess you bought BTC for a huge price need not to worry about that just wait for your day.

Look up Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) and don't make the same mistake in trying to time the market ever again.

That doesn't seem too bad I mean dude has been holding for 2 years now and I think if you do not need 25k+ money for the past 2 years you may not need it for the next year as well. The halving is about to happen in few months and even if nothing happens during the halving process we make sure that inflation goes down, that is a fact, regardless of the price of bitcoin the inflation will go down and that will cause less and less money being sold on the market as well.

Liquidity may go down but that will only help the price to go up a lot more easily as well as allow it to go down easily as well so we just gotta hope that we reach the peak after the halving (but a lot after or just after we may never know). With more and more money stuck and not moving I suppose we will get $13k+ soon like in a year or so.

Just keep on holding there is hope this year I've been preaching to buy low and always whenever you can afford to buy at whatever price you find Bitcoin while the halving is still not happening, because the halving holds a lot of potential you'll not going to regret it.

How did you find out and get this information.

Did you meet someone with a fortune teller?

I see hundreds of predictions every day in the media, however ... however. that's what is called prediction nothing is 100% certain.
Do you have something else, besides predicting the price of Bitcoin translucent to such and such levels.

For example: interesting information about Bitcoin going forward.

He is holding for +2 years, he is hoping that he will see some profit after all that time. He is not the only person who bought in that period, even for high prices. Congratulations on holding bitcoins that long, not cutting loses, surviving all that FUD. He is not a fortune teller, he just hopes that his time is finally here. Bitcoin is moving around 10k for some time, going over and under, maybe we will break that resistance soon and stay up. I think that can happen in months after halving, but we will see, each of us has some opinion and each of us hope for some big bull run and significant price rise.

TBH I also hope for the price to be around $14-16K before this year ends.
But I was also hoping for another ATH because of the hype from BTC halving this year.
But right now I am sticking up with $14-16K because it seem's hard to surpass it's current ATH.

The current situation of the market was not impressive, but still potential to reach a better future. Even $14k or $16k is very hard to obtain due to several factors that affects certain growth of bitcoin price this year. We're too early to speculate for any price, but what's important is we knew our bechmark for specific holdings.

we can all guess about this, but before halving, and the highest price this year, the price of bitcoin reaches $ 10500. Seeing this, I estimate the price of bitcoin to be higher after halving and allow the price of bitcoin to reach $ 13,000 or even higher. I wish the price could be close to $ 20,000, but that is still quite difficult to realize.

I would suggest trying to make money with your money while you are waiting as well. That includes putting your bitcoin into interest and saving from there, using btc to buy any proof of stake ones or maybe even buying a masternode as well in some coin. I know you may not like other coins as well but if you did this since 2018 and now still were holding you would at least had some more money compared to what you have right now.

Even just a 4% yearly interest on freebitco.in would help you get a lot more bitcoin than you currently have. I am not too familiar with any other method but as long as you profit from having money that is always the better option than just simply holding it still.

Back to the topic, I expect new ATH within 2020. I am not big technical analysis still I am expecting a new ATH in this year as we are going to have halving which may bring all the required things, we are deliberately looking for.

That price was indeed so hard to fulfill, and eversince the last fall of bitcoin market along with other crypto; many holders was still hoping to see any progress right now. What's frustrating to see is that price was continuously outraged by the recent problems that affected by global crisis. Typically, most of the reason was due to adoption and most potentially the latest problem of epidemic virus ncov which currently affected finances from several holders.

It's better to start trading with those Bitcoins you hold as the market is fluctuating between $7k to $11k and it will be a smart move to go on daily trading as nothing is predictable at the moment but if you want you can wait till the Bitcoin halving post which there are more possibilities of a major pump.

Keep holding mate, this year there’s a chance to reach that level again but still no guarantee. If you have the money then buy again while its cheap so your cost can be average. There are so many speculation this year, and the halving can bring the good prices for us. Be patience, don’t sell yet because the good prices will still come anytime.

This year could be the opportunity you are waiting for because of the halving event that will soon come by for the standing of the coin. Expect more from your anticipated rate or range of the price of Bitcoin this year 2020 or by the end this year and in the next years as its supply would gradually decrease more than the past halving or in the current volume of Bitcoin in the market.

Year 2020 for me, has a great potential for Bitcoin to surpass and achieve a new all time high record.

The way it is going with price down there, I expect a renounce of price soon before halving. This is halving year and we should expect more price pump. So I'm thinking we can see another ATH maybe during the year end.

There are high hopes for this year that the market value will again reach another ATH due to the anticipated Bitcoin halving. The halving is believed to trigger an uptrend because that was what happened before, in the previous bitcoin halving. Despite of the lack of assurance of the price increase, many people still are holding on to the assumption that the market price will regain its momentum from being downed for years.

That is a good amount to hold and I would suggest refraining to sell as early at this point. It would be better to wait for a little longe. Risking won't be that much of a burden because we are talking about Bitcoin. No matter how hard the downfall is, its market price will be able to recover, but patience would be highly required.

If a new ATH is to be made, then definitely BTC will hold a value above $25k at least and I hope you'd make a nice profit there. Buying BTC when its price is high hurts a lot (higher price is said to be decided when it starts crashing from that point) but don't worry, BTC's history says it all and it'll again repeat itself by showing a price tag you'll never forget.

Sorry you bought your 2 bitcoins at the bearish markets still the good thing is, you are still holding it. I appreciate your patience. Never lose that. You will be rewarded for your level of patience with bitcoin markets and not just for your decision of opting to invest into bitcoins nor to your level of capital amount.

Yes, believe me! People who bought some 10 bitcoins might have sold them when they had first seen $14000 after bought at the same prices like you. I mean if you got guts to hold your bitcoins till 2022 then definitely you can see some big profits which may be 2 millions as you are holding 2 bitcoins. For this year 2020, we may expect a new ATH by end of this December as we have halving in-between. Anyway definitely you will enter into positive zone this year. Keep rocking :D.

I am not sure if you will be able to get more profit than you have spent to buy Bitcoin during the peak time, I would rather suggest you to either consider the Bitcoins you hold as a long term investment wherein you don't need to think about it for a good few years as the current situation is not in favour of achieving the rate you have mentioned.

That is a misunderstanding, I don't think that there is a similarity between Dollars and Bitcoin, people think that the current crisis of world economy due to Coronavirus is the reason for this widesptead dip in the whole market, that's not true. Otherwise, we have no idea what is going to happen in near the future, possibly Bitcoin will overcome this  crisis and possibly not. but in my opinion, Bitcoin will probably rise to $ 11K after few weeks.

For bitcoin, there is no need to worry even though he bought bitcoin when it peaked at $ 13900, I'm sure this year will be able to pass that price as long as it's strong in holding in the long run.
Even experts often predict bitcoin will soar high unlike altcoin which is always a concern when the bearish situation comes hard to recover.

Ah, then last year must have been rather painful for OP, to see price almost go up to his break even. But worry not OP! I know a couple of people who bought after that, and they kept buying. Same here in fact. I earned btc even at higher prices. But that's the benefit of cost averaging! You keep buying, not 2 btc at one shot like you, but smaller amounts at any price at the time. It all ends up making you in profit long term, that's how it is with btc.

Some people tend to believe on such things that is irrelevant to the current situation just because they have something like a superstitious beliefs. Where in fact all of this is a direct result of the traders and the price manipulators. If they have some sense to think the rationality of all things I think they might have understood the flow of the market.

Dollar cost average is good idea to at least know about but it still requires to know the market will be successful in that period of time.  Some markets can be down for a decade and yet still valid, BTC seems underneath to be surprisingly long term in the tides that drive it.   Perhaps because BTC is tied to macro economics, FIAT and even QE programs and hence has a large inertia to its base movement.   Of course we have the famous speculation and spikes and so on, that wont go away either.
   For 2020 I estimate keeping an eye on 200 day average will prove useful, of course the year is longer then 200 day but I think we'll keep a more steady trajectory in sum total.   Some or most think upwards this year but I'll just add I think its a slow cook before we see results and yes even with halvening in this year.
   My memory of previous halvening was watching the year after saves alot of juggling and worry.  I try to learn from my mistakes so I havent forgot and it'll take alot to convince me otherwise.

Don't just hope for that amount because that will only Break even your capital,
better Ask for much higher so
your waiting is fruitful because you are almost 2 years in holding that does not
deserve no gains at all because
remember in Crypto investing specially for long term holding like you?the profit
must be at least 50-100 % or
much better if we will have higher than that,as the investors from 2016 make more than 200% in Bullrun after Halving in 2017
that is the right way to make a income if you are into long term strategy.

They believe forever in BTC so they holding continuously in further year and predict the further hype. Yesterday India was accept the crypto so next uptrend is unpredictable in BTC. Most of the investors are actively monitor the pump and dump so this year rate does not concentrate the most of the investors. I hope again it cross 19k USD in this year.

Hopefully, Bitcoin in the year will become everyone's 'hope' for better and keep going up in price.

At a glance you can see that Bitcoin in 2020 became a hot conversation in all circles, various predictions emerged from the price of $ 13,000 to millions of dollars, but apart from all that there are true and some are not exactly 'predictions'.
The important thing is we can hope and pray that the price of Bitcoin can go forward regarding one of the predictions available. Not sure when it will happen.

   Yoshie Bitcoin is a hope for a better for many people. The ones who started earlier with Bitcoin are already in that better
financial position, but I believe that we are still in early stages.
    I'm not sure either when will Bitcoin rise it rates, but that will happen. My goal is not so low as $13k or $14k, add one more
zero at the end and it's the price I hope to see in the next 5 years.

Just believe and do what you think you can Good about your holding if you believe that bitcoin is goes up this year you can hold it and wait for a long time. Just be patience and wait hold your bitcoin until the price will goes up again like 2017 price.

Naaaah what he needs to do, is to buy some more when price was 50% and lower as he's starting prices, and buying more now as well, then keep on to those precious coins and not sell, maybe a fraction but always keep a healthy piece of the stash

Continue holding and keep believing, getting a higher price would not be easy but it's not impossible.
This year is the year of bitcoin halving so there's more hype coming and in fact it's happening already, just believe that bitcoin could pump high even in less than 24 hours so be optimistic.

What we see so far this year is great, bitcoin had a great start, reached $10000 again and this should continue as bitcoin is due for recovery.

Sell at ATH I suggest, and wait patiently,

I think the best price of BTC in 2020 will happen later near the year end, and it will probably be around $20K. :)

So don't expect anything extraordinary yet (not for 2020, although 20K itself isn't that ordinary).

It seems you have bought btc at a higher rate then as we can see the price of bitcoin currently has dropped. Many speculations about bitcoin that will increase this year, but, as you know we don't know when it will happen. Since you are already holding why not still wait until such time it can recover to the higher price you have bought it.

I might think that the price of bitcoin can reach $ 20k when in May the bitcoin price is above $ 14,000. so far, the price is quite far, and even the price of bitcoin is trying to stabilize at $ 9000. however, I quite believe that the price of bitcoin can reach tens of thousands of dollars by the end of the year. Well, I predict no more than $ 20,000

Btc rate this year is full of hope by various users to see it reach an all time high. Hold your btc I think price will improve this year in the market.

Numerous speculation in bitcoin so best if we could hold a little longer to have profit.

I also hope that the price would go up to it and it would just stay there.
I am not hoping for a big increase that would just drop down after a week or a month I hope that this time when it goes up above $10K it wouldn't go back down below it ever again.

I strongly agree.
The resistance says it all.
It doesn't want to go there yet. There might really be a right time for that.
Besides, the halving is not that much near. There might still be investors out there who thinks there is still a cheaper price which they could buy for a great numbers of bitcoin.
2020 4th quarter or the start of 2021.

I also had a desire to buy and hodl I had abandoned and sold most of alticoins to buy Bitcoin and ethereum this focusing on those two, I also believed that the price would reach $15K this year all we need now is to hodl and wait patiently for another bullish run similar to the 2017 runs.

I am sure bitcoin will reach $20k again in the future, but that will need time to happen because we are still at $9k, so it could be more than 2 months to increase until that price. I am not sure if the price will be above $14k in May if the situations still like this because since January until this day, the price does not break $11k, so I think it might difficult to see $14k. But it could be possible if there is a massive buy from the investor before the halving time so that it can make the price start to increase. I am curious to wait and see how higher bitcoin can reach in the next 5 months later.

more than 2 months only ? damn well i cant agree  with that sorry  because when i look at last year , btc didnt merely move at 10k usd for almost a whole year  .

 what i mean is that it will also take more than a year just to see a noticeable increased on the price but im not saying that after that 20k usd will appear , still no because when we look at on the biggest pump last two years ago  , the highest price on btc is only at 18k to 19k usd and if im not mistaken , there is no 20k usd that happen before  .

I still think that we should look at it in either very short term stuff like today and tomorrows price type of situation or we should look for over a year if we are talking about long term. This dude bought it around 14k price and he has been waiting for 2 years and I understand the urge to be in the positive but if he has waited for 2 years that means he is a long term investor and maybe he could wait even longer.

Can anyone here honestly tell me bitcoin won't be over 20k in 2025? I am 100% sure all of the people here would say we would be over 20k in year 2025 which means dude has waited for 2 years already, if he could wait for another 5 years he would double his profit and there are not that many stuff in the world that could double your money in 5 years, I still see this as a win for him.

Well, no problem with that. You see now, bitcoin price still going down and we see the price is broken down to the lower price than yesterday.  What I mean that we need more than 2 months to increase and break more than $9 is because bitcoin price does not increase and back to $9k but it still goes down for more. We don't know if, in this month, bitcoin can be able to break $9k or not, but we will see it soon.

I am betting on this, we will be back to $9K soon, there was a sudden dump but this is just one of the many that we've witnessed in the past and still bitcoin bounces back, let's relax everyone, we will certainly see some good improvement this year, if that would not happen before the halving, then we can expect it after the halving.
