Present, there are many altcoins in the crypto market and they have grown a lot. But it has gone down and gone again, but Bitcoin is the only currency that hasn't gone down yet, instead it's going up. I've noticed that Bitcoin has grown the most over the past couple of days, but altcoins haven't grown as much in comparison. Currently, we see Bitcoin market above $44000, I think it will bring $45000 very soon. Will Bitcoin Touch $50,000 By This December?  What do you think about the way the Bitcoin market is currently growing?

I really think that Bitcoin will grow more and even reach ATH price since there’s nothing to stop them now because we are all get over to FTX and other big crypto companies that got bankrupt.

The only way this current trend will stop is when Bitcoin ETF is denied or when one of the institutional investors such as microstrategy will finally take profit since they are the only entity that has the ability to dump the market using their current holdings but I doubt this will happened soon because they are still accumulating even on the current price which means they are thinking long term.

There are many currencies that have been showing interest in coming along way far as bitcoin had been but yet they can't withstand the relevance of what bitcoin has always served, in terms of performance, there are alot of them thst have a market price performance in recent times better than bitcoin but they are not reliable and cannot be trusted the way bitcoin had always been, we know this truth for the sake of the experience crypto users that bitcoin is the only most reliable digital currency, which also have proven years of consistencies and trust.

If you compare bitcoin and altcoins, it is clear that bitcoin is much faster than altcoins, for other coins they follow the upward trend of bitcoin and then can enter bearish, most altcoins will find it difficult to survive, it will fall even more to the bottom of this which we often see in the market.

It seems that the upward trend of bitcoin is still continuing now stuck in the $44,000 area there is definitely a possibility before the end of the year ends bitcoin could be at $50,000 this is actually not certain but anything can happen if you look at the market conditions that are quite bullish now.

Am not favoring altcoin in this post but if we will check the market graph it shows that there are
even more altcoins that grows higher or even faster against bitcoin though many of them are just Memecoins, shitcoins
and some are even Pump and dump coins so yeah your post shows legit way of being Growing and that is Bitcoin.

So yes as well to bitcoin will be hitting 45k in the next couple of days and about 50k breaking?
you know that majority of bitcointalk Users are longing for that though the Transaction fees once again is shocking ,
climbing 160+ satoshi /vB and that is the highest i have seen this year alone not even higher from the past bullrun
that i witnessed.

Bitcoin party just started and I can assure you that,  we will be having a lot of exciting experience as the market keep growing and that can help a lot even though it seems that at that point it will become very expensive for those who just got in at fresh,  but then Bitcoin is a journey that requires a lot of patience and long term experience,  but in general bitcoin is an exciting investment journey that gives us the double gains of having to build knowledge around it and also make some visible profits along the line.

So not right for us to categorize Bitcoin in the class of other cryptocurrencies since Bitcoin is the primary coin and also the king of the industry,  all other altcoins are just in for short-term speculation and hypes,  many times we have to look at some obvious fact about Bitcoin before we associate it to other crypto.

Bitcoin is the most reliable out of all the crypto currencies and the coins which has pumped but, it's not the one with highest gainers as there are dozens of altcoins which ahs grown massively during last few weeks and they are a mix of shit coins, meme coins and also some genuine altcoins as well but, some of them have already started to fall apart but that's not the case with Bitcoin as Bitcoin continues to rally. It will imminently reach $50000 or even further and possible to see ATH and if there are no correction phase then the most awaited figure of $100k will not be a distant milestone to achieve.

If you are really just that new into this market then these kind of sentiments are really just normal or not really that shocking because these words are actually came from into those noobs or who doesnt really have much experience into this market because if you do then you would definitely say the different thing instead. We do know that Bitcoin is the main coin into this market and whenever it do makes some pump then you would notice that most coins in the market would turn out to be green, although the percentage gains wont really be that much high but on the time that you do see that Bitcoins price is consolidation then you would really be able to notice that altcoins prices do really pump out. Why? because we do really have that so called "Altcoin season". You would really be able to experience for yourself if you havent
able to do so.

This market does have those kind of cycles on which not all the time it would really be focusing on Bitcoin alone but there comes a time that there would really be
those altcoin ones. For now that Bitcoin halving is going near then this kind of market movement isnt really that shocking honestly.

Of course, it's the first crypto currency, and so everyone is attached to it, then it become an enigma because as I have said, the prime mover, and then it's creator suddenly went underground and no one heard from him since his disappearance which added the mystery to his creation.

And then as we go on the journey, people find ways to trade it and then we have a reach history about exchanges, from Mt. Gox to the current one. And then the first purchase of Pizza, crypto gambling and others.

As for the price, yeah, why not? $50k is just around the corner this year. The market is very positive up to this point because of so many good news like approval of Bitcoin Spot ETF and then the block halving next year.

Bitcoin is the top coin and very dominant, that's why the focus of the investors right now are with Bitcoin but don't worry because for sure altcoins will follow.
The target price for this year is around $50k and we are near to that price, if there's a lot of good news and fresh money coming in the market, for sure we can easily break the resistance and hit the peak price for this year. We are already in the bullish trend, we should be more confident about the price of Bitcoin, and look forward for a more peak price.

When you talk about a coin’s growth I wish people would refer to market cap instead of coin price. It shows an understanding of what is being discussed. Also, considering most other coins have presales or other methods of enriching their founders, Bitcoin’s growth can’t be touched, as it’s infinite from where it started, which was 0.

Bitcoin's market capitalization growth is even faster compared to other stocks that first appeared.
It only took 12 years for Bitcoin to reach the $1 Trillion Market cap and prove that Bitcoin's growth is faster compared to Google, Apple, Amazon and Microsoft stocks.

Even today in Real-time, Bitcoin Market cap $856.25 B which overtakes 3 companies at once Meta (Facebook), Berkshire Hathaway and Tesla.
in the last 7 days, Bitcoin's Market cap is up 15.81% and is in 9th place with the largest market cap.

This is expected.

We've got several factors looking at, halving, bitcoin etfs, institutional money is coming back together with the retailers, etc.

That's going to make the demand higher again and this is typical when we're going to the bull run. Everyone starts to understand the cycle now that we're in and that's why everything is possible, could even be higher than $51k but could just be stuck to $44k until eoy.

This is the power of Bitcoin dominance. A lot of people say that "if you invest in Bitcoin, you will get low ROI".
But now, take a look, their altcoins are not even following Bitcoin or not even pumping. And if Bitcoin pumps, they don't pump, if Bitcoin will dump, some altcoins are dumping also.

Bitcoin is far different and not to be even compared with any other cryptocurrency as it is clear the  superiority it has, which others are trying to reach but all to no avail. Many Altcoins have pumped a lot even when Bitcoin was down, they keep claiming and comparing themselves, sometimes I see them make stickers were they downgrade Bitcoin and make their currency look like it is the best out their meanwhile they go behind and pump the market so as many will invest and you see them at the very end dump and rug the project.

Let those who trust Bitcoin, watch end enjoy what it has for us, do we continue having an uptrend in the price let the market keep flowing in it's direction but I believe without any form of doubt we should expect Bitcoin at a range we're we do not expect just the way it has moved in the past days as no one ever imagined it to happen so fast.

I think the way it works is like that, when bitcoin is about to rise, all money flows will go there. As a result, bitcoin will rise first while altcoins are silent and left behind, but after rising bitcoin will break for a moment, that's where the new altcoins will rise because money alternately flows into altcoins.
and according to my predictions the cycle will always be like that.

One thing about me is that I do not like to deviate from the fact, but you just did, maybe you do not know, there are many altcoins that have grown exponentially. Some had grown over x10 in this bull run, so I do not know where you see it only in Bitcoin which has not grown x2 in the recent bull run. I have my sizable amount of money in Bitcoin and the same goes for the altcoins, so it's so easy to know what is happening within my wallets without any sentiments.

That said, Bitcoin is a very good coin and will continue to grow for the next 1+ years. This is already known before now which is why people are pumping and pumping it especially this time that the FOMO is all over the place. I didn't know it could reach $40,000 this year, but it hit it effortlessly, so reaching $50,000 cannot be an issue anymore. Bitcoin has moved so well in recent days and has peaked at $44,500+ this year.

For this, I do not think that anything can stop it from buying further as people have now continued to see it as a good investment opportunity so they will continue to pump it till next year.

After increasing and passing $44K, today Bitcoin also corrected slightly in the market, although only for a fairly short period of time. I think the potential for it to continue to increase again is still there and will continue to happen this month, while for altcoins I think at the moment there are not more people who want to think about it and want to buy more of them. Because the focus of many people now is on Bitcoin, not on altcoins, don't be surprised if you see altcoins not increasing significantly during this time.

The flow of more money into Bitcoin in the last two months is quite normal because news about price improvements is always more focused on Bitcoin, not on altcoins. So what is happening now is quite normal when we do not see altcoins moving simultaneously to increase simultaneously with Bitcoin in the market. Because now there are many people who prioritize Bitcoin over altcoins to get better profits at the end of the year and also the new year.

You comparing Bitcoins with Alts? Cmon dude. Bitcoins are the master coins. People developed altcoins by seeing Bitcoins only. Now you doing the comparison of the both. Market follows Bitcoins and so do the alts. Now if we see the price, then yes Bitcoin’s price has really impressed us in the past week. If this trend is continued then definitely the price will go beyond 50k usd this month. Let’s hope for the best.

Many altcoins grow fast but drop quickly unlike Bitcoin where we can see consistency in its growth (upward). Well, we can expect such a thing as the bull season is coming but after this, tragic dump is also what we experience. That is why if we want to invest in crypto for the long term, we should choose Bitcoin over altcoins but if we just aim for the short-term and enjoy the hyped, altcoins seem fit for such criteria.

However, with the current situation and if the momentum keeps going, Bitcoin price could reach $50k this year. But we never know exactly what will happen a few days from now as we can't just ignore how the FUDs and negative news affect the market trend.

Bitcoin has indeed shown remarkable resilience and continues to be a frontrunner in terms of growth and stability, impressive. However, there are still possibilities for both sides, and I want to be optimistic that its price will rise even further, surpassing its current all-time high, for greater gains from holding Bitcoin two years ago. However, some may become hesitant, especially newcomers, due to the increase in transaction fees. Should we be disappointed because we cannot immediately move the bitcoin according to our preferences?

As a pioneering cryptocurrency you don't expect it to perform less, therefore in it's leadership position as the leading digital currency bitcoin has been up and doing since it's creation and all other crypto rally around and depends on its growth for that of theirs. The $44k mark is na impressive one and a boomerang of shame to those that were criticizing bitcoin with all sorts of degrading and discouraging articles and discussions on socials when bitcoin price was down to $15k this year. But for those that filtered the noise, didn't sell out of the FUDs instead hodl and kept on accumulating it's now a profiting bullish market for them.

Just this month bitcoin moved from $36k+ to rally around $42k-44k within days so therefore there's a positive propensity that it can go touch $50k by the end of December 2023. The fundamentals has been on the positive side for bitcoin and with the spot ETF approval in focus anything good is possible to happen with bitcoin price right now.

Bitcoin is already having good performance with the recent market price and we can observe that many other altcoins are not performing well as bitcoin did in this recent bull, this is just a preparation towards the bullrun which we will soon get into early next year that the market rises and pump more, this time we are is still the period to accumulate more and hold till we are into the season for the bullrun where the market remains favourable for sell.

Even though Bitcoin is the king of crypto, doesn't mean all the altcoins always follow Bitcoin. There are times that altcoins are impulsively increasing its price while Bitcoin's price is ranging or gradually decreasing. But base on my analysis, altcoins are just retracing at some point but they still depending on Bitcoin. I believe Bitcoin would play around $45k since there is a supply sitting in that level. $50k is also possible but I think the price will not stay at that price or just swept that area before the weekly timeframe retracement of Bitcoin start.

I think that is a lot rarer than people assume, I am not saying that it is not happening but it is not that common. I think people should not have expectations like that, I get that you may see something like that happening here and there, but I think it is a lot more rare and it should not be all that common to see.

Expecting it to happen is the problem, you may see it and I understand that you may feel like that would be a good thing but at the end we are talking about a situation that's not that common hence why you shouldn't put your money into something as investment on the off chance that it may go off without the market movement. Always plan up to market movement structure and you will be doing fine with that.

Right, but that's seldom to happen to solid altcoins, those altcoins that move of it's own could be just a pump-and-dump scheme which is very practice in the altcoin world. And one instance is that if there a good news on that solid altcoin let say Ethereum when they have those iteration from PoS-PoW (although there could be arguments that it become more centralized).

Yeah, just like in the last couple of days wherein we hit $44k-$45k, that's as close as we got so far for that round numbers of $50k. So who knows what's going to happen in the next 3 weeks. Maybe the bulls are going to try their best to see that price at the end of the year.

Most altcoins don't really have the community and the financial backing to stay afloat for a long period of time. Bitcoin has been here since 2009, and made a lot of millionaires that now support the overall project. It has also started the trend of money digitization in ways we can only imagine before that a lot of countries now hoping to replicate.

Altcoins, too, can see the same amount of growth in a short span of time. The thing is, can it sustain it? No, and as initial investors of the said coin already profited enough, they'll plan their exit and watch as poor souls who actually believed the project cry out for help holding their bags. This has never happened with bitcoin, even though there were tons of fear-mongering related to its price for years on end.

that's the main difference of btc over most alts. almost all crypto users are supporting btc by using it in their transactions one way or another. but with alts, they are after more on possible profits. so they are likely to hold on short-term basis only as they also don't know the lifespan of the alts. whereas, with btc, they are just waiting for the right timing to sell to get the profits they are targeting as it won't disappear unlike most alts. a lot have disappearing act.

If I'm not mistaken, there are a  lot of altcoins that can really grow more than Bitcoin. But those projects could be just pump by some groups, specially that we have a lot of pumpers in the altcoin market. So that could only be temporary and then the admin of those pump groups are the one who's going to make a lot of money by selling early before giving the signal to anyone.

So for us, at least the majority here just stick to where we know that we can make money in the long run and that is Bitcoin. It might be hard to see the price during bear market, but as soon as we recover and then some semblance of a bull run just like what we have seen right in the last quarter of the year. For sure we will not regret staying in the market and hard grind of saving thru DCA.

$50k is easy reachable price considering the market bounce that have made bitcoin reach close around $44500 as the peak price for the year. Now bitcoin trading around $43000 and we can expect price correction taking place before making a push to cross the $45k barrier. We don't know how far the price correction will last, and I'm not sure of the price correction event. In my view I expect a market correction taking place before touching $50k.

As the title OP made, it is true that bitcoin is the only currency that is growing very rapidly, in my opinion this is normal because bitcoin is also considered the parent of every form of cryptocurrency.

If your definition of GONE DOWN is dead then you are correct but if it means DUMPED? bitcoin always do  mate , every after Halving the price of bitcoin drowning down to 60-70% from the previews ATH and it is more sudden last year as from almost 69k usd , the price fell down at 15k which means so much Down so maybe you are exaggerating about the thread just to praise bitcoin.
I am not here to debate about Bitcoins strongest moving because I know myself support bitcoin all the way but lets just be true to our posts instead of telling a lies.
It is indeed that Bitcoin never been an underdog since the creation and over the years continued to dominate the whole market so yeah OP's stand is believable andi am not here to disagree.

Yep the currency since 2009 to 2023 is the most profitable currency. The creator os Bitcoin satoshi Nakamoto made this currency for the bitcoin lovers. You can see the price of Bitcoin increasing from 2009 to 2023 and the growth of price of the currency is to high and to muck profitable for the investor. Satoshi made this currency for mainly give profit to the currency lovers. That's the reason of grow most.

for 13 years bitcoin continued to grow year after year making its the highest and luxurious currency
ever created , pricing from almost nothing to almost 69k and still counting? yes this has grows the most.
But I cannot see this happening in 2023 mate? not sure about that but this is how I assume
considering that it stopped increasing when reached 44k.

Well, no please don't expect any corrections happening especially this month otherwise you will gonna miss out the opportunity to buy more fractions of btc, if you're planning to of course. If it pulls back a little down to $40k, I think that would be a good entry point. Don't wait for it dip more than 10%. When it does, much better but then again I wouldn't be expecting any corrections, because people are actually buying. Some traders might sell at a new heights, but It would only affect the price with a short pull backs allowing themselves to buy again at a lower price.

What I want you to know is that altcoins going up and down what makes altcoins to grown in such way is because of the increase in bitcoin so altcoins doesn't grow without bitcoin so any investment you are making should go directly to bitcoin, so expectations of bitcoin price should be by next year and if bitcoin price increases it affects the price of altcoins so leave whatever people said about bitcoin and altcoins so bitcoin is something that pushed altcoins and every investors  like to invest with bitcoin

We cannot be sure how big the correction will be. Maybe a big correction will come and a bigger purchase will be made. The Bitcoin price has made a big increase in a short period of time. Everyone has to act within their own plans, which allows us to take our own measures in case of an unfavorable situation.

I think there will be a correction but I don't know how big it will be, so you need to allocate capital for a good buying opportunity. Since we know the bull market is coming, everyone should buy according to their own price and keep waiting. Most of us didn't buy Bitcoin at the bottom, so the price we set should be enough for us.

Bitcoin is the only currency that is increasing in worth day by day and also there are some altcoins which attained the greater value so if someone have bought different coins along with bitcoin then they can easily take profit from it. Bitcoin can always going up and before halving it will move towards the highest cost like that of 70k$ or above.

Cryptocurrency market is volatile so condition can be change and unexpected things happen always. 50k$ is far away yet but may be it happens because as quickly it attained the value 43k$ so perhaps there occurs a sudden surge to move bitcoin price to 50k$ this month as 23 days has been left for next year. There is a chance that in December bitcoin will attain the cost of 45k$ so everything is possible until halving and Fluctuations will happen alot.

The FTX, LUNA, and all other issues and problems are long gone and they haven't been the only reason for disrupting the growth of Bitcoin. Still, it was because we were also in the bear market for the last couple of years, and that is the biggest reason why Bitcoin wasn't going up. However, I agree that those incidents did make an impact and the market went further down because of them and if all those things didn't happen, Bitcoin wouldn't go as low as $16k in this bear market.

However, I don't think that Bitcoin or the market will just keep going up from this point onwards until it reaches the previous all-time high because that has never happened, the market will have to have its corrections along the way, and we haven't yet seen a healthy corrections since Bitcoin started going up from $26k and that is why we should expect one anytime soon.

it is irregular to say Bitcoin is increasing its price day by day because sometimes it is even falling badly for the whole year .
so never exaggerate about things in bitcoin but you might be right about 70k breaking but I hate to call it happening this year.

actually it attained 44k easily but 50k seems to be far from happening ?

well this is the target to break before coming another ATH.

It’s true that bitcoin has been around the market longer than most. It’s the OG! Me and my friend call it like that. People tend to see it like digital gold and a reliable store of value and a longer track record, Bitcoin has gained the trust of both institutional investors and individuals seeking stability in the volatile crypto market.
Altcoins are like the cool kids trying to carve their niche. Some do well and some not so much. But Bitcoin  got the street cred. So when the crypto party gets wild, Bitcoin's often the one standing tall and now look how far weve come!

if bitcoin goes up, altcoins should also go up, and that happens altcoins also go up, but not all altcoins go up, only a few, ideally this is not a bull run market, actually only a few coins go up, I think there are several parties who deliberately make this go up .

Bitcoin's price movement is very good, it has increased by over 13% in one week. It is still on the rise. Bitcoin price is 44k now, the way bitcoin price is increasing, if it continues to increase like this, I think it will cross 50k in December itself. And next year it will make ATH.

While a high GDP can indicate a robust economy, it doesn't necessarily translate to a happy and healthy population. Factors like food quality, access to healthcare, income inequality, and environmental sustainability are crucial aspects of well-being that fall outside the scope of GDP.

The daily lives and food choices of citizens are not reflected in GDP figures. A nation with a high GDP could still face issues like malnutrition, food insecurity, and limited access to healthy options. This clearly demonstrates the need for a more comprehensive approach to assessing a nation's progress, one that goes beyond economic output and encompasses various aspects of human development.

It's just that bitcoin has certain cycles where growth is bound to happen. It's a four-year halving cycle. Although locally it just happens sometimes too, like now. But altcoins don't have such clear cycles. The risk that there will be no growth is much higher.

Bitcoin market movement now is not a shock to many people. It has been anticipated for too long to happen but many market obstacles have stopped it from moving. Today, bitcoin is now trading above the $43K level price and haven’t been able to cross through to $45K. A resistance has been stopping it from passing there, if it past through the resistance in a few days, I think bitcoin will surge to $50K or even taste it before creating a new resistance there.

OK, I have a question for you @bitterguy28 how do I take advantage of this situation, and moreover produce results from it? You already know my reasons.

you only have to make a new token with the value of 0.000000000000001 similar to Pepe.
Clever maketing and you might get it to increase 1000 fold or more.

People start investing in altcoins as well when they see Bitcoin going up because since the inception of the cryptocurrencies, it's been the norm that when Bitcoin goes up in price, altcoins tend to follow its movements and the biggest reason for that is the increase in demand for altcoins as well. One might notice that some altcoins don't go up much even if Bitcoin and some altcoins are going up in full force, the reason behind that is that those coins are not traded much and they barely get any volume.

So, while there can be some cryptocurrencies that might not go up when the market is going up, most altcoins will go up when Bitcoin does so and it's because people show interest in those altcoins as well along with Bitcoin which makes them gain value and those that lack investments stay behind in the race.

You can't compare the growth of altcoins to the growth of bitcoin both of them doesn't have same technology, in a circumstances bitcoin is what give a rise to altcoins and the acceleration of bitcoin give a very big dominance and support for acceleration of altcoins,  when people is making a comparison about bitcoin and altcoins it surprised me because altcoins can not grow without bitcoin having a lot of bullrun, if bitcoin experiences a short duration of bullrun it will affect altcoins growing especially the newly established altcoins but if bitcoin experience a long-term bullrun all altcoins get accelerated even though their technology is very poor it still increases

Even if the bitcoin ETF is denied by the SEC towards next year, bitcoin will still reach its ATH at the right time, nothing will stop it. What the crypto market would experience if Bitcoin ETF is denied is a drastic decline in the price of bitcoin, which with time, the market will bounce back because the demand for the purchase of Bitcoin at a discount price will be much, in an expectation of the bull run to come.

In all the previous crypto bull runs that happened, there was nothing like the approval of bitcoin ETF that helped bitcoin to soar. It does soar on its own after months of halving the season

Nobody can know for sure what the SEC will decide, but I think it is highly unlikely that they will again decline the ETF without setting new deadline or realistic requirements, making clear that this is not a question of years anymore. But if they do decline the ETF applications, I don't think it will have an effect so negative that it would neutralize the gains we have seen this year. I believe that there are things going on behind the scenes that speak for an approval and it hasn't been made public yet.

It's like they'll approve bitcoin after they've taken actions against FTX & Binance. If approval's declined it's going to have negative impact on price we don't know how much. Bitcoin isn't going to lose gains it's made in 2 months but something's going to happen I hope it won't be dumped.

But for what reason would most people dump it? You could argue that those who are involved with these application processes could dump, but any of these institutions that have sent in these applications are preparing their reserves for the day when these ETFs get approved. They are not getting into Bitcoin only because of a potential ETF product. The times that Bitcoin overreacted to news like that are over. I don't consider 5% a crash. It happens all the time.

But surely there are players in the market who would try to capitalize on leveraged short sales, which may lead to some short-term selling pressure. But other than that Bitcoin's short-term success doesn't depend on the ETF approval. I believe that the downside potential for an ETF decline would be lower than the upside potential for an ETF approval. After all, everyone knows that these ETFs will come one day anyway.

I don't think a single minded sentiment has a benefit offering the crytop industry. We are just investors and traders in this space of crypto currency which we basically don't have the capability to decision else we just have to make our investments and trades while the volatility potentials of increments is decided on the ETF.
Sometimes I just feel like AltCoins doesn't exist but only Bitcoin because I have no business with it and it has no value to render to Bitcoins interests of value rate instead the the AltCoins are follow up(followers) to stepping IN and or OUT after Bitcoin alternatively AltCoins are bitcoins emulators
But however, the honest truth is that bitcoin do still falls yes, it could fall depreciably and frustrating so as it is affected with the AltCoins and also, bitcoin has the potentials to appreciatable values at most and so it is also a bit inline affected with the AltCoins.
All these are so because Bitcoin seemed to portray the highest level of volatility in the realm of crypto currencies and that is why it has been unbeatable and its abilities to maintaining a profitable reputation.

Well those that are heading the SEC will likely have to approved the Bitcoin ETF next year. I mean for me, those are big entities already, and so I will speculate that they have a lot of influence as they can wield it to anyone, like Vanguard and BlackRock who's a trillion asset hedge company.

So those people behind have some inside connection themselves or even lobbyist. Sooner or later SEC will have to get in to these influential group of individuals. As for the title of the subject, it's also obvious, Bitcoin has the support of the community and investors it's the wise decision to just put their money into it as it will give huge profits in the future, whether average joe or big whales.

I expect there are also some strategical shenanigans going on behind closed doors, like when the SEC receives an application, they will try to be careful as to how they represent their own institution in public. It should not foster the impression that as soon as a powerful financial US institution comes around the corner, the SEC immediately grants approval. They will take their team, giving the impression that there is a level-playing field for everyone who considers an application. In reality I expect that there is boundless lobbying going on and the ETF will come eventually.

I don't believe that Bitcoin hasn't gone down yet. Bitcoin rose in price because it went through what is called a decline in its current price. Ups and downs are normal events. My experience in altcoins in the past was that I always followed Bitcoin. 1 to 50 altcoins may still survive falling and rising prices. Others in the thousands only last a moment and are worthless.

From $44k to $41k. This is a minor correction in my opinion. $50k this December still don't know the answer.
That's why you should switch to Bitcoin instead of sticking with altcoins that are just a waste of time.

I think this correction will not continue there is still a possibility that the price will bounce up and return to the $44K area in the next few days. This is also not the right conclusion in the assumption that I believe that bitcoin can go up again in December even though we don't know the real direction yet.

Altcoins only rely on hype to go up so it still goes up a lot not naturally then when the trend occurs then the pump on altcoins is getting more especially for new projects but at this time I still put altcoins aside and stay focused on bitcoin.

Corrections can still occur but will not be too far away.
$41K is still a price that I don't consider a correction from $44K because it is still above $35K. Of course, that's not a conclusion for Bitcoin prices in December.

I've forgotten about altcoins because many of them don't have a value that I can hold onto. Piling money on a number of their projects no longer happens to me because I have finished my days with them who only rely on hype. Investing in altcoins by relying on hype is no longer the era.
I will say hello to them because they have made me realize that Bitcoin is an asset that needs to be maintained because there is no need to be afraid of losing money.

What altcoins have you invested in, and have they lost value these days? If talking about altcoins, I wonder why people don't invest in altcoins like ETH or Solana, Avax...why do people like to invest in new projects that don't have any achievements yet? And then blaming all altcoins is useless.

If evaluated fairly, there are still a number of altcoins in the market that exist and bring us significant profits, not only bitcoin can bring us profits.
If we only talk about profits then bitcoin is not the only coin that does that, we don't need to hide the fact that there are many other altcoins doing the same thing.

Altcoins have smaller trading volumes and this leads to higher volatility. The comparison between Bitcoin and the altcoins is getting annoying at this point. ;D
I don't believe that Bitcoin will go above 44K USD or even 50K USD this December. My prediction is a price correction and going back below 40K USD. Everybody is praying for the Blackrock Bitcoin Spot ETF approval, but I'm not a big optimist about this ETF being approved.
Bitcoin isn't going down yet, because the army of Bitcoin HODLers and believers is still strong and they will keep their BTC for several weeks, hoping for another price pump. The altcoins don't have such big and dedicated communities of HODLers supporting them.

Why don't you believe that Bitcoin can reach $44k at the moment and can even go up to $50k.
This has become a cycle that makes Bitcoin increasingly in demand, and many are starting to enter Bitcoin.

If you expect Bitcoin to drop below $40k at the moment, you need to wait for that and hope that support can be broken.
You might expect a cheaper price to be able to buy more.

Only you don't expect the Blackrock spot ETF to be tested immediately, that means your portfolio is still lacking much,
so you expect the market to continue to fall and fall.

Don't you buy it when the price of Bitcoin is below $20k?

Some people are debby downers and they do not say good things all that much, nor think about good possibilities in the future. That's fine, I do think that it could reach to 45k and not only that we could even finish at 50k before the year ends as well, not saying that's what will happen, but I am aware that it's possible and could happen. This is why I think we should consider the situation as great as it could potentially get, and we could end up with something that should be quite happy thoughts and be happy with what could happen.

I understand life is not that simple, but I do get that it should be something that will be happy thoughts which would give us a better idea to survive. If you keep thinking about how it could go down then you are not going to make any investments, and when you think it could go up then you could always make a lot more money, that's how you should approach it and how you should make the most out of your profits as well.

This is not surprising anymore if we see bitcoin leading the market because we all know bitcoin exceeds in all aspects compared to altcoins. And to think that bitcoin is the king of crypto, so it alwys kept an edge towards other crypto coins. Bitcoin is currently priced at $43k and with how the market behaves these past few days, I'm optimistic that it will hit another heights in the next days, and might even exceeds our expectation from reaching its $50k price.

However, while we all aim for a bullish market, sudden price correction might also appear in a very unexpected situation. But we all know that bitcoin is still susceptible to that, at least we can prepare for it as early as now.

Everyone does have their own thoughts or perspectives, profits and losses will be their own responsibility.
But when someone is too skeptical, it seems that he needs a little treatment so that his mind does not always ask for bad things that will happen.
Even though conditions now are not as bad as thought.

Considering the situation as well as possible can be an effective way to avoid always over-expecting a condition.
Everything will run in balance up or down, but there will be a limit where the rise and fall will be influenced by the trend that occurs at that time.

Preparation as early as possible does need to be done, by having some spare funds for buybacks and a backup plan to cope when a crash comes suddenly.
The market will not be completely predictable, but some careful preparation will make everything safer and more controlled.

Correction is hereby expected in a volatile market but yes, we can't think it will be dumping more. From $44k and dropping back to $40k, which is not really big enough, the market support is still strong and pushing back the price of Bitcoin again. What are we gonna expect in the coming days? We are more positive as the halving is coming but still, we can assure you that there is no more correction happening. Still, it was acceptable in the sense that selling/buying demand kept changing. After all, the entire market is reliant on the trend of Bitcoin.

Yes the correction is a natural thing and it is a very natural fluctuation when bitcoin is experiencing a continuous increase, and the evidence is recovering as before bitcoin is above the $42k price level.

The $40k wall is quite strong and I don't think we will break that price level again in December, I think this fluctuation was triggered by the sentiment of the Fed's FOMC results, but it doesn't seem to be so influential with the bullish trend of bitcoin to accumulate, so it is back on the rise, basically we are waiting for bitcoin to break the $45k area at the end of this year.

And yes, the bitcoin trend is the main catalyst for altcoins to gain greater adoption or increase, so yes what do you think about it, are you a special altcoin in your eyes? :P

Altcoins have their own time that they do very well and that is after Bitcoin has gotten most profit due to the halving effect. It's better to buy Bitcoin before and after the halving as you'll sure of profits, after Bitcoin has had its share of the market then the altcoins will start pumping as traders take their profits and start pumping their favourite altcoins. Bitcoin isn't the only cryptocurrency that have grown the most but it's growing very well as investors are pumped.

We have other cryptocurrency that have done very well but we have more of altcoins that are giving losses as money is going out of the altcoins market into Bitcoin as everyone is accumulating Bitcoin for the bull market that is expected to come before and after the halving is completed. Bitcoin can be relied on but it isn't giving the most profits. Altcoins can give you more profits but can't be relied due to greed from  the communist supporting the altcoin.

This sequence of altcoins pump after Bitcoin huge growth have been around for a while and is called the altcoins season. What I do not know is if this trend will continue considering that a lot of altcoins have turned out to be shitcoins. Within few years now, we have seen popular altcoins with huge market caps crash, leaving people in various degrees of pain and agony. The recent being Luna is an experience no one wish to ever have again. This is why people are increasingly leaving altcoins for Bitcoin.  The continuous increase in Bitcoin dominance confirms this.

Even though it will be difficult to know exactly how things will turn out, it is obvious that the awareness of people about Bitcoin have grown so much following the role it played when the war in Ukraine broke out as well as that of Gaza. Many people resorted to Bitcoin which never fail to deliver irrespective of location. Therefore, the popularity of Bitcoin surely come with more inflow of capital.

It's obvious that whenever it tries to go down, the price keeps just shooting back up, so it is clear that we are not going to get anything major like that, we are not going to get under 40k at all. However, we need to also remember that we could make some money back and it is going to end up with a bigger return. So all in all, we could end up with a good old 45k+ break, it would be good to see that happen, we need to keep it going and it will benefit us all. I get that it is not that simple, and I get that we may have to deal with some stuff, but we are going to end up with a good return one way or another.

I believe that we could make it work eventually, it is not all that confusing, it should be quite simple to understand what we could make from this, it should be as simple as that. If you could hold it, then you are going to end up seeing it break above, and that break will not be too much time down the line, within the next month or two we should see it.

It is important to note that every new cycle altcoins have new trends. Therefore, some coins do make crazy profits for investors who managed to guess the trend. But many coins don't grow that well. That is why bitcoin is more reliable and grows every new cycle.

The new altcoin trend is also only temporary and this occurs more often when new altcoins are listed on large exchanges such as several altcoins that have entered the Binance exchange this month. But for Bitcoin, I see that almost everyone can take advantage of it in each cycle by relying on their individual abilities, while altcoins can be relied on by a small number of investors who are hunting for temporary profits before they take all those profits to buy Bitcoin.

Of course, things change very quickly in the cryptocurrency market, unlike traditional markets. So if you invest in cryptocurrencies, you need to constantly do your own research and be ready to sell your coins to buy others. It's probably a good time to buy altcoins because bitcoin has already done x3 this year. But before or after halving, it's better to buy bitcoin.

The growth shows a sign of strength and trust with the system. Bitcoin is a believe system of money and a store of value that works and when people believe in something particularly when it comes to investment, it becomes more and more attractive and interesting for the investors to invest and the value will begin to increase over time. The bottom line is that the stability and the gradual increase in value you've seen with Bitcoin, is as a result of increasing investor interest, the law of demand.

With time Bitcoin Bitcoin will hit our price expectations, it is just matter of time ,it could get to 50k before the year runs out or it could be next year 2024 ,just be patient with the process and HODL.

I think we are waiting for the same to see the top can be seen again to be broken, but for two months I think it is too long, if the bitcoin ETF in January is approved for trading I think it does not need a month to reach the highest value, a month or two weeks after approval then we will break the previous top price.

I'm really looking forward to that, and the last weeks of this month might be the last time we can accumulate bitcoin at the $20k price level.

Do you believe that in early 2024, and say I'm here with bitcoin do next year.

Bitcoin is the reason why there's cryptocurrency, not only that, people talked about bitcoin because they want to have the unique advantage it offers them since it's a decentralized digital currency, this same bitcoin bis what makes other cryptocurrencies have the opportunity of showing what they've also got to offer to the people, but there's no reliability in altcoins like with bitcoin, what the people needs is bitcoin and they are adopting it the more.

Your comment seems that you have viewed Bitcoin in a one-direction movement pattern and from a short-term perspective which may make you lose out on several things that could have given you a better understanding of the Bitcoin market and how far it has evolved over time,  many things that we need to know about the whole bitcoin ecosystem is that,  as long as we once hard a Bitcoin all-time high 69k+ before it falls back to below current price and after gradually recover back to this 45k+ which still is below the last ATH and at that symbolizes a fall in prices which make Bitcoin and every other cryptocurrency to have same feature and volatility tendencies.

But what make Bitcoin different from other is the fact that Bitcoin is a much less volatile in nature and have a large ecosystem that protects it from falling like other coins that may fall and be unable to recover forever,  that is what has resulted in so many of the negative experience from most of them in the industry today,  and the reason why we trust more in Bitcoin than any of the other altcoins.

Is there any cryptocurrency which started with a zero in value? I think there's none. With this alone, we can say that Bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that has really risen from nothing to a big thing. And it started on its journey alone. The rest of the cryptocurrencies are already taking advantage of the success of Bitcoin. And their tokens or coins are already assigned with a certain price right from the start.

$50,000 is probably for next year. That's too high for Bitcoin within the month. And we've already crossed the half way mark of December.

All events are possible in cryptocurrency market and bitcoin continuesly repeated all the specific events in four years and as four-year completes so again a new cycle originates. Before halving it is good to buy bitcoin because now price is not much highrise therefore these are the fitter intervals to invest in bitcoin.

After halving there is also a favorable situation to buy bitcoin but for that again waiting should be needed for upcoming halving after four years. It will be suitable option if investors sell their bitcoin during halving then again but with profited value into bitcoin after halving at lower price for further four years. Applying different strategies and sense of urgency can make everybody an expert if they want to search on different sites to listen to experts.

I would say that it is a great trend that bitcoin could end up with a proper increase right away without having to need for any additional reason, and meanwhile we are going to end up with something much better with time, it is going to be something that would benefit everyone for the long term, it should be something that we could be proud of because if you can hit the right altcoin investment then you could make insane amount of money.

I am not saying go ahead and invest into any alt you want, because there will be plenty that will crash and not be able to take the pressure, but if you can pick the right one then the amount of money that you could make will be insane and it will definitely be something to be proud of as well.

Anything can still happen for the market price to change more because, the new change that made the price of BTC to rise to $44k,  really bring so much joy to investors that was waiting for the price to hit that amount before they can sell to make little profits from their investment. I have that believe that the price of BTC will rise above $50k before the end of december which is the major target of some hodlers before they can sell to take profits from the market and, the current rise of the price of BTC give hope to bitcoiners by toping the market above other coins.

Many cryptocurrencies in the market rise little when the price of BTC pump higher to $44k, but the price of BTC has been in the run to make their investors to experience bull run before the massive one will finally occur from January when investors will begin to see $80k before the end of next year 2024.

​
​No one can say for sure whether Bitcoin will hit $50k or fall below $40,000.However, If Bitcoin crosses $45k then there may be hope. After hitting $44k several times, this resistance may weaken. The biggest hope is the approval of the ETF, if the ETF is approved then it is not difficult to cross the $50k mark, but it should also be kept in mind that if the approval of ETF is rejected, then its price may fall below $40k.

The prices of other cryptocurrencies are rising less, because more capital is going to Bitcoin. Therefore, even when the price of Bitcoin increases, the value of altcoins does not increase as much. If bitcoin stabilizes here, and capital transfers from bitcoin to altcoin, then you'll see where the prices of other cryptocurrencies have reached and how much profit investors get.

Any bubble will deflate after a huge pump. Therefore, it is not the most important thing to choose the right project to invest in. The main thing is not to be greedy and manage to sell before the price falls. It doesn't matter if it's bitcoin or some altcoin. The price will always pumping and dumping.

And could you reveal your secret how you manage to sell before the price falls? I admit since I never really know where the price will go tomorrow, I prefer to buy coins that have promising long-term prospects (Bitcoin!) and that don't force me into guessing any highs and lows correctly. If that's a secret strategy, you can PM it to me, but psst! ;)

I'm keeping an eye on bitcoin's price but it hasn't touched $50k after it's started to increase in October. It's hitting $43k or $44k but doesn't make it to $50k. I don't know why it's price's going to increase while we're waiting for judgement on ETF decision because it's going to fall if ETF's declined. Who'll want to buy now with a risk overhanging.

No other coin compares to Bitcoin, Bitcoin is one and only. There are many altcoins in the market that have seen market growth but have not been dumped so far, Solana is one of them. If you look at the Solana market this year, you can see that Solana has only moved up, it has not been dumped. There are other coins whose market has gone up but not down. But the Bitcoin market is unlikely to reach $50000 this year 2023 because Bitcoin is locked up by fake Bitcoin ETF. Fake Bitcoin ETF will likely be approved in January Bitcoin price may go upper $50000 in January.

The guy you quote is a shitposter expert, specializing in overquotes and writing without thinking much after the quote. I would be surprised if he hold any Bitcoin at all. For me he spends what he charges at the casino, as happens with many on the forum.

On the other hand I share your vision, I prefer Bitcoin and DCA, without eating my head trying to guess when the price is going to go down or up to make my next move.

Bitcoin is the only coin that can be depended on, that's why it has so many big investors. Since I started watching bitcoin 2020 bitcoin price was between 17k but 2020 halving bitcoin price peaked in 2021. Bitcoin price went up to 69k. You can definitely see the difference if you calculate the current time. At the beginning of 2023, the price of Bitcoin was 16k, in just 10 months, the price of Bitcoin has reached up to 45k. That's why it can be said that the price of Bitcoin is only going upwards so those who invest definitely get huge benefits.

People should see this significant movement as you stated above, where the temporary highest price to date is $43,526 and it won't be long before it will probably enter the $48,000 range at the end of December which is only 7 days away. So, what are our further preparations for, after getting investment exposure with several future benefits, do we continue to hold back or is that enough for investing in BTC?

bitcoin not only one crypto currency always grow. all crypto curency in big 10 coinmarketcap always grow.
if the price goes down all coins also experience ups and downs in price. the same as bitcoin also experiences ups and downs in price. if bitcoin is a price barometer for other coins, there is a point. because if the price of bitcoin goes up, almost all coins also go up. similarly, when the price goes down, all altcoins will also down price too.

Bitcoin isn't stable so it's price can't be accurately estimated. When you're investing you've got to be a calculating investor or else it's going to mean a loss. We're all playing a guessing game when we're advising ppl to buy or sell. If you're saying bitcoin's going to be $48k range at the end of December it's a big say but there isn't a guarantee it's going to happen.

Bitcoin has its differences, so it shouldn't be compared with altcoins even if we are talking about the pumps and dumps of both. When Bitcoin pumps, it doesn't dump the same way and even if it does, that dump wouldn't make you feel like it's going to rug pull and all your holdings will go to zero in no time, but when an altcoin starts dumping after a huge pump and if it doesn't seem to stop after a certain point, you will start to feel afraid of what might happen.

I agree that every cryptocurrency that goes up will have to come down again, however, there will always be differences in their movements whether it's going up or coming down, and if we talk about Bitcoin, it's not the most trusted cryptocurrency for nothing, it has earned that name and position for itself.

We are just a week and some days to the end of December and bitcoin has not being able to break the resistance of $45000. It goes above the $44,000 and moves down to its support level. The support level was also broken some days ago but was still able to regain the support again and still can’t break the resistance level. So your vision of bitcoin reaching $50,000 by end of December is still dangling and not yet certain even though we still have some days left before the end of December. I am not giving up on it not reaching $50,000 because the way the market operates, it can even go above that and get to a new resistance above the $50000 by end of December. Bitcoin is indeed a speculative and unpredictable asset to hold.

I do agree that these are two very different situations and we should take them one by one. I mean we should not be expecting a big dump anytime soon anyway, sure a bit of a correction here and there, but not a big dump. The price is going up, and halving is coming soon, and the big bull run should happen after that, so during the next 1.5 years or so we should be seeing ups most of the time.

Like I mentioned, small corrections could happen here and there, but when the price goes 5x higher, daily 10% drop here and there doesn't really matter all that much. We should be happy that it is getting to that point and we should be considering the situation to be a bit more careful in the end, that is always the best case, looks quite bright to me.

The increment in cryptocurrency market do attract other coins to increase, its obvious that when the market is against bitcoin other coins doesn't have the ability to rise, so in bitcoin conditions any other coins can fall when bitcoin is on the run of increment, so I believe very well that bitcoin increment from now till 2024 can give another shape by reaching as you predicted, because bitcoin when it falls now within a short period it increase again

Giving Bitcoin some praises should be truly deserving but we should always say the truth/fact so that we don't confuse others. Your overall expression might be too sided. If it is reliable and has a little down movement in the bullish season is the choice of the investor, then Bitcoin might be the answer as it is heavy already, so it can't move so much towards the selling side if it wants to correct itself. This is unlike altcoins that might move x4 and correct lower with x2 which makes them riskier. For example, Bitcoin at $40,0000 might just correct lower to about $36,000 and start buying again. This amount is not up to 25% of the asset, not even close it to, so no investor can lose significantly when they hold Bitcoin during the bull reason as we are now.

But when it comes to making more money, the altcoin has it with no controversy here, and the more you know them and can wait for them, especially when you read their charts accurately well, the more you can get money from them. Some altcoins will still move x100 in the full bull run season. Yeah, you heard me correctly, so it is all about your risk affinity. If you have it higher, then you can gain higher with altcoins as well.

You are right, when the prices go up like that, small corrections do not really matter. I think it's quite true that people should take no risk and just invest into bitcoin, that would be a smart move and people would benefit from it. I think what people think is that bitcoin can't go up as much as some other coins, they are chasing 100x to get rid of the rat race and that means they are going to end up with something that may actually give them some profit, and that should be the most important part.

I believe that we are going to end up with something that should be all the more better and could get to a point where we could just assume that it's going to get a lot better. I hope that we could get it to be better eventually and not do it with risky alts.

Both alts and BTC are cryptos, and then both have their differences. This is the reason why people are comparing them to each other. I think there is nothing wrong with that. What is only wrong is when we compare our selves to other people. There is also nothing wrong if some expects a dump. That was not our business anymore.

The price movements right now are going in the upward direction but there is no guarantees that they will continue like that, even if there are positive incoming events. What if some strong force prevents it? E.g. big whales and institutions manipulating the price. Because you know, they are good at playing with the peoples emotions.

Despite the volatility of Bitcoin, anyone predicting a big correction in the market is not far from getting it wrong. Definitely the price of Bitcoin will drop but there is no tendency for it falling so much, I think the little correction is just there for those who wants to still accumulate Bitcoin, they can jump in by applying the DCA strategy.
Some may either wait hoping for the price to dump so they can purchase but that may not be the case as we are not expecting such to happen.

Yeah, we have many altcoins that were about to show some little interest in growing like bitcoin, but at the end they failed to do that. Although we still have some altcoins that have been existing for a long time now, they still can’t be compared to bitcoin. However, if you look at how bitcoin has been growing, you will see that nobody has complained about it bitterly like other cryptocurrencies, so that is why anytime people get into the cryptocurrency market, they prefer bitcoin instead of other coins, so I think that is why bitcoin doesn’t go down.

Other things are how profitable it is and how low the risk is when it comes to investment. Bitcoin has shown much interest and has been giving positive results so far since its existence. Bitcoin still has less risk when it comes to investment, not like other cryptocurrencies that have higher risk and don’t generate profit. At the end of the day, they may even crash because that is what some altcoins do. A bitcoin investment is a coin that, after your investment, you will surely get your money back with a profit and have peace of mind.

It isn't going high like ppl hoped but there's a hope it'll get there. There's still some days before end of December so it's possible it'll happen. I won't be giving up on it reaching $50k but I'll be surprised if it got that value. Next month we'll know about the SEC's spot ETF decision that's when bitcoin could go high.

It is possible for that to happen, you know in the crypto business that sometimes the movement of Bitcoin's price when whale investors want to increase it suddenly rises after only a few minutes or only a few hours.

Will the traders or holders or incoming investors suddenly be bombarded by an event they did not expect. That's why it's good to just save as long as we can do it rather than when the upswing is progressing, that's when we decide to buy and then the worst part is that you'll have a hard time catching up.

​There is absolutely no denying that Bitcoin investment is low risk. Other cryptocurrencies in the market have risk but higher returns, while Bitcoin has a lower rate of return. Only those who have a large capital can invest in Bitcoin, because a small investment will not be very profitable. Some altcoins may crash, but we don't necessarily call all altcoins dangerous, there are still many good projects that have given people excellent returns even in this bear season.

 When altcoins can give 5X to 10X in bear season, imagine how much good projects can give us in bull season. I consider bitcoin investment to be safe, but not very profitable, but in my opinion, the best altcoins may prove to be more profitable in the future. However, a good choice is very important. If we keep entering each and every project, then the coin may crash and we may lose.

Normal price corrections can occur in the Bitcoin market with conditions that will not be quite different. Because what is meant here is a price correction that only occurs within a few percent without any drastic terms because large price drops only occur when the market is in a bearish condition. Meanwhile, in bullish conditions like now, it will be quite difficult to see prices drop drastically except for just a few percent of the highest price that has been created in the market.

Buti in the bear market, we will have to see worst corrections, like what when we have the FTX collapsed that sent the price down to $15,500. And I think it's not just a few percentage if we take into consideration that bearish year. After a high of $69k the price nose dive to almost 90% down throughout that bear market.

Nevertheless, it's just another bump for bitcoin enthusiast, we all know that after a bull run the bear market will take over.

And so we endure that and now we are very much in the bullish state. And next year there will be big surprises as we will officially enter the bull run.

Bitcoin is the main investment and is the king of all coins, so it is not surprising that Bitcoin is an investment that will not result in losses until the coin is worthless. Bitcoin will never even die. look at how bitcoin has developed since its inception, it already indicates that interest in bitcoin is growing rapidly. having a portfolio with 50% bitcoin held would be very good, the rest is just potential altcoins and a few hype coins that could provide huge profits or that rug pull.

Yeah Bitcoin has been able to sustain a steady movement and without exhibiting any sign of crash like the altcoins are doing and have done over time,  but then also we have to look at some factors that have also made Bitcoin investment not to be a palatable one for investors in some time of the year such as in the present time in the network.

We have experienced a lot of network crises in Bitcoin compared to other altcoins,  although some of the altcoins have insane network congestion and high fees,  but then since Bitcoin is the major focus of the industry, its network crises used to hit investors the most since they use it as the basis for analyzing other coins.

Bitcoin is clearly superior to other crypto assets. In terms of price growth alone, bitcoin is quite consistent every year. This means that the ups and downs are always regular every cycle. So it is not surprising that currently the price of Bitcoin continues to soar high. Because maybe now Bitcoin is approaching its halving cycle.

And for the end of this year (December), I don't think Bitcoin will touch 50 thousand dollars yet. Because I see there are still many corrections taking place.

Yes, it has become an open secret and it has been felt by all people throughout the world, Bitcoin has now become a celebrity favorite which is growing rapidly as time goes by.

We are all aware, Bitcoin has grown rapidly in all sectors, rich, poor, middle and so on, which is what many people are currently feeling.

Thus, we know that the halving will occur in 2024, which means that the opportunity for Bitcoin to reach the highest point of ATH that has ever occurred in 2020 is likely, we understand from several factors that make Bitcoin grow, in speculation $50k is not the best point at this time, many speculations hope to reach $100k, hopefully, but hope is strong.

People expecting $50k by the end of the year and $100k during the bull run, these two are different altogether. When Bitcoin started going up from $27k, many were hopeful that it might reach or even cross $50k by the end of this year, but that didn't happen, and it could only reach around $45k which isn't bad if you ask me because considering where the price was a month or so ago, I wasn't even expecting it to reach this point within 2023.

So, in my opinion, we are ahead of the time, and if there aren't any healthy corrections anytime soon and there is only recovery up until the halving event, I believe $100k won't be an unreachable target and the maximum price might be higher than that during the bull run. However, it's all speculation, reality can be different.

Something that I have always liked about Bitcoin is that its ATHs are unexpected, things can happen just as they say, maybe it won't even go up, or it will go up more than 100 thousand USD, that's something we don't know, I wish we could know how to do it or What to do , for now the Only thing I can say and recommend is that everyone buy bitcoin, because I know that this price is volatile, and can rise more than $100k, so when it comes to doing something better you can define very well the thing, firstly there is a lot to do, secondly those who speculate because they have the right to do so, what I hope is only for the best to happen, maybe I am very optimistic but I really like to think that things can turn out well when it comes to have more expectations about this.

Now we have to review the ways to earn and I think that the one that is Always present is Hodl, and buy, the more you buy bitcoin , the more you think you will win in the Future, because right now the price is actually very cheap.

bitcoin cannot stand completely at 43k because it goes up and down each day , and have not even stayed 43k above for a certain days.
expecting to reach 50k is one good target and yes my plans for selling at that range so yes I will try to wait but contented to sell at 45k above.

and there might be a sideways mate , because we have seen this many times before that when we expect bull to continue booming yet the Bear suddenly appear and cover the market with red blood .

I often separate each incident from a different year because I very rarely think that the same incident will happen again without a clear reason. So that's why I no longer explain the correction that occurred in 2022 with the condition of the correction at the beginning of this year, namely 2024, because I think almost everyone already knows that the fall experienced by Bitcoin in 2022 was largely born of the impact of the collapse of a big exchanges like FTX. However, this year I don't think that other exchanges can suffer the same fate as FTX.

Bearish and bullish are two conditions that always exist, such as increasing and decreasing prices in the market, but small corrections like what happened yesterday in Bitcoin are very normal for Bitcoin before making the next price rocket with more bullish market conditions during ETF Approved. So we can consider this as a very good start to the year with very mature thinking because Bitcoin will never go bad as long as there are no big influences coming from outside.

That is what we have seen which also encourages investors to just hold for many years rather than sell them in a few pumps.
Of course, not all but most of us trust Bitcoin among other cryptocurrencies a reason why accumulation continues as well as crypto adoption. We can see that some altcoins are increasing sometimes even higher compared to Bitcoin but people have chosen BTC because of the strong potential it has and the role it plays in the crypto market which is our assurance if not forever at least for many years. Unlike most of the altcoins, after the hype, it drastically dump and never recovered.

I do not think that it would be impossible for bitcoin to crash due to something like that, I do not consider that as impossible but also I do not invest based on "what if" , I invest because I believe bitcoin on the long term and I think it is just going to make some money and I will be here making a profit from it. I think that's the most important part of it. I get that people are not really certain about everything all at once, but that doesn't mean that we are not going to make money from it.

I hope that we could have something that will benefit us the most. I understand that life is not that simple, and we should consider this possibility as a very important deal, so we can't really make the most out of it if we constantly fear.

Bitcoin has already dropped its price into $41k but still if we compare it to other crypto coins, bitcoin still gained the highest appraisal hence, it remains the king of the crypto market despite of its current price decline.

However, with its high volatility, we can still expect a price  surge few days from now most especially that we are heading for a bitcoin halving that will greatly influence bitcoin price once it happens.

Bitcoin remains the dominant and most popular cryptocurrency worldwide.It has grown so wide in the world.Bitcoin as the grandmaster of all the cyptrocurrencies(Altcoin)has the highest price.

As the dominant currency we give Bitcoin the most importance and here people mostly invest only hoping for high returns. Bitcoin is called the king of all cryptocurrencies, the most popular coin worldwide. But altcoins can never be more expensive than Bitcoin, but these coins are pumping more volume in a short period of time due to which people invest in hopes of quick money and end up losing money. So you should always keep in mind that Bitcoin is the only store of value from which you will be able to earn huge amounts of money just by investing and holding.

We may not have seen any coin or coin price remain stable in the cryptocurrency market. The prices of various coins in the cryptocurrency market fluctuate constantly. However, among all the coins in the crypto currency market, the price of Bitcoin has increased the most and we expect the price of this coin to increase in the future.
I think people who compare bitcoin to altcoins are wrong. Because we have seen that when the price of bitcoin increases, the price of alt coins also increases, and when the price of bitcoin decreases, the price of alt coins decreases. This means that the price of the altcoin is dependent on the rise and fall of the price of Bitcoin.

The picture of the cryptocurrency market today says otherwise, today the price of Bitcoin has dropped to $39,000. About 15 days ago Bitcoin price was close to $50000 and we thought Bitcoin price might touch $60000 this time.But since then, the price of Bitcoin has started to decline and today has fallen below $40,000.

In such a situation can we assume that the price of Bitcoin may drop below $30000 again.

Look at the movement of the market now month after you posted this thread https://coinmarketcap.com/  that will show you that Bitcoin maybe acting best last december but not this near ender of January as all of the cryptocurrencies leaded by bitcoin is dumping badly.
strongly holds 40k position for the past couple of months but now suffers in huge dumping since yesterday.and also it did not cross 50k because after the Spot ETF approval the price grows up to 49k but thats it , starts to fall again.

Bitcoin price will go up and down in the crypto currency market it is a normal phenomenon I think there is nothing to be impatient about it. We saw that the price of Bitcoin surged surprisingly after the announcement of the approval of the Bitcoin Spot ETF and the price of Bitcoin reached around $49000.

Seeing the increase in the price of Bitcoin, many people thought that Bitcoin might cross 70 or 80 thousand dollars before the Bitcoin Halving but instead of increasing from there Bitcoin started to decrease. Bitcoin fell below $39000 but today the price of Bitcoin rose slightly and touched $40000.

There's no need comparing bitcoin with altcoins, there's no need making comparison when you already know the value of bitcoin, despite the current market situation bitcoin is facing and with your predictions last year didn't come to pass still doesn't make altcoins to be the best.
If we keep comparing both always a lot of people will get our idea wrong and decide to google what's not true.
A lot of altcoins have potential and still some serve as a ponzi scheme so with all this a lot of people avoid the stress of passing through risk, ever since I heard about bitcoin, bitcoin has no association with scammers cause it's a decentralized currency, some will say a lot of people have been scammed holding bitcoin but that's cause of their carelessness.

There would really be no doubts if we do speak about Bitcoin as for this is the Father of all crypto on which demand and recognition would really be that definitely be the main priority on which it would really be just that normal that community focus and consideration would really be that number one to Bitcoin and also with altcoins on which this had been part of the market and it would really be just that normal that people would really be reconsidering on having another thing on their portfolio on which diversification would really be that your main priority on which it would really be just that normal that people or investors
would really be seeking for another alternative on which they could really be able to handle it out on which it would really be that normal to have that kind of consideration.
Bitcoin is mainly been that supported on which its not shocking that it would really be that still always at the top which everything would really be that depending on the demand.

This is a common pattern in the cryptocurrency market, where prices often fluctuate in the short-term. I have noticed that the long-term trend for Bitcoin has seen the Bitcoin price rise despite these short-term corrections. A few days ago the price started to rise before the Bitcoin ETF became available and the price of Bitcoin started to fall a day or two after the approval. I never thought Bitcoin would go above $70K before the halving. I thought if ETF approved would go above $50k but before it got there Bitcoin started to take a correction. Halving doesn't have much time left and may now make frequent short-term ups and downs. Hopefully after the halving Bitcoin will start a run to reach its ATH.

I really hate the word potential. I have a potential to become a skydiver, also an astronaut. But I prefer to focus on realistic goals and accomplishments that bring mutual benefit to others around me.

All altcoins have the potential to moon, go 100x or whatever, and people think there are different reasons that will fulfil this potential. But all altcoins have the highest probability of being a shitcoin, that's what people don't get.

Bitcoin is beyond potential. If you see 'potential' in crypto stay away. Faaaaar away.

What about Tether, BUSD, DAI, and similar cryptos? They won't be called as stable coins for no reason. I think the reason why BTC increased the most, is because it was the first crypto that is still existing up until now. BTC had some good stats and specs but I wouldn't really be confident and say it can increase more in the future. The future is still unpredictable. Not all times alts and BTC are moving on the same direction.

Also alts has other use case than in BTC. This is another reason on why someone compares them. On the second quote, this is what I'm talking about that BTC is unpredictable. And the more we expect it'll rise, the more it will only go down.

bitcoin has already proven a lot in this market, remaining the top position in more than a decade in this market. so yeah, we don't need to think about its potential but to what price level it can reach. so long there are crypto users who are continuously supporting this market, then, it will continue to survive. worry if there are no more people talking about this market specifically this top currency.

Bitcoin are dominating the crypto market with 50% dominance on average and will continue to do that or more in the future. This is normal since it is the first and oldest cryptocurrency to be created and has the most adoption rate. It is also quite solid although it fluctuates a lot from time to time.
Ethereum comes second in the market but I find Dogecoin as the coin that has the most potential to increase since its price is underestimated even though its community is special and protective.

Survival isnt a word for Bitcoin because with the security and supports we have managed to see the strength of this currency and does not need to survive because the market will not survive once this is doomed .
and about OP's thread title indeed that bitcoin is always the one that survives while the market is in Bloody color  so correct that will be the faith of the market.

Actually bitcoin is on it's own way on that time you have seen pump and now bitcoin is also dump after the touch of over 47k. And I don't think it should be perfect compare between to altcoin to bitcoin. Even then in this you can also see that etherium has grown besides bitcoin. Not all altcoin will be goes to the same it is natural.

Bitcoin is the greatest coin, no doubt about it. Because Bitcoin has been in the market since probably 2010. So since Bitcoin has been in the market with confidence for a long time, it has never been a fraud opportunity. So I believe it will live more with faith for a long time hence should never be without investment in Bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin will definitely rise after 2024 so I have invested in Bitcoin with the belief that I will sell it when the price rises.

What I think about the current situation of bitcoin is that, "That's what trust in the process and potential looks like." People have seen bitcoin grow in astronomical percentages over the years and it's not an unlikely thing to happen all over again plus bitcoin's proven itself time and time when it comes climbing back up in prices despite the bear seasons, FUDs and low buyer confidence in the market throughout the years. I would agree with your thread title that it's the only one that's grown the most but I sure hope that it's not the only one that will do so because there will come a time when bitcoin becomes a premium to the point that not everyone can buy themselves a decent amount and the value is too low and discouraging to invest into.

Target price to sell > because bitcoin had already increase its value since October so
what is your plan and how long to keep holding?  and also this is not about how long it stays but
how much it grows over the years bitcoin is also the only currency that makes its way up when t
here are no support from other coins back in the days comparing to other altcoins that only relies
 in Bitcoin bull running.

Bitcoin has gained more popularity in a very short period of time compared to other cryptocurrencies due to which its value is now high in the market, its value is hovering around $41k to $43k as of early 2024.

If we want to talk about the past of Bitcoin then it must be said that Satoshi Nakamoto started working on Bitcoin in 2007 and presented it to people in 2009. So, Bitcoin was invented in 2009. No other crypto has been able to achieve the position that Bitcoin's value has been in since 2009.
Hopefully, its value will increase several times in the future. And the halving is going to happen in 2024, which will give Bitcoin a higher value than expected. Then the Bitcoin price will increase by several times compared to other cryptocurrencies.

So, it can be said that Bitcoin is the only crypto that has achieved more success in a short period of time. Which no other crypto could do.

It will be much better if you describe Bitcoin as having better stability than other Altcoins do, that way it will make more sense to put up a comparison because most if not all Altcoins shadows Bitcoin movement, a slight movement in the price of Bitcoin to the upward direction could feel like a Bull run with other Altcoins and same happens if it goes the other way so it's obvious that Bitcoin has gotten the stability that proffers a better level of confidence with stability in the price o your assets.

Altcoins ars basically following up with Bitcoin, main trend and that's why every movement on Bitcoin is reflected on other Altcoins. Altcoins basically don't have much stability has Bitcoin.

I think it's clear that there are a lot of people who would like to see bitcoin not survive at all, and I bet that 99% of those people are either people who are hurt by what bitcoin gives to people (dictatorships and wall street etc) or they are people who missed out and don't have much and envy others who make profit from it.

Otherwise, who would really want to see bitcoin crash, there is really no reason that it would be all that bad, we should be considering the fact that bitcoin also helped a lot of people, so it should be something we promote and like. Remember, this may have existed in USA or UK and what not, but it also exists in very poor nations as well, helping those people make a great amount of money, and live a better life.

For now, Bitcoin has not been thrown away even though there is a difference in price in the market, because the current price is not too far away at $47K. Meanwhile, for altcoins or those other than Bitcoin, it is quite visible that Ethereum has again achieved better growth than other altcoins in the market. But the price of Ethereum itself has also experienced a decline in price and still hasn't reached $2.5K at the end of last month so things may never be the same as before for now.

Bitcoin comes with a unique concept, so it is not surprising that Bitcoin still exists today, even though there have been several people who have wanted to kill it. A thriving bitcoin community has kept bitcoin afloat for over a decade. So your choice to continue prioritizing bitcoin investment is a wise choice, even if you invest in altcoins, bitcoin is still the number one choice.

Bitcoin's market capitalization will continue to increase from now on as traditional institutions flock to buy bitcoin. So the future of bitcoin looks clearer. It's not too late to invest now before it's too late. DYOR.

As far as I know the price movements of Bitcoin and large altcoins are not much different, meaning that the price increases or decreases between them tend to be the same. The $45k wall still seems too strong because Bitcoin tried to break through several times but failed and instead the price fell below $40k. I'm sure if this wall is successfully broken down Bitcoin will easily reach $50k.

Yes. BTC is on its way to returning to ATH, but even so, let's look at the current conditions, even though it seems at first glance, ordinary people will not spend their money on expensive portfolios. For Altcoins I have no doubt that ETH is the king of Altcoins and trading can be done anytime and anywhere. very dynamic, It only takes at least an hour or two to analyze the charts and fundamentals.

Sometimes at this time we imagine that our trade will be profitable but the reality is different from us and often good fundamentals have no effect on price action. If BTC is good, everything will come true.

What is happening now is always normal in the market, people often fear or attribute what is not to what is happening many times even as the market will always be affected by both economic and technical factors and this happens in multiple daily, weekly and more. This week alone, many countries' data, particularly of the US that are important, even happened many times this week alone. They actually affected the Bitcoin market, but many would not understand this important news or know maybe they even broke but will be relating market conditions to something else. Regardless of that, to avoid confusion as it is not everyone that would be opportune to have this information, this is why we have to be close to our trading charts. At least, this will reveal what is really happening in the market to use in our planning, especially when we are analyzing it on the higher charts.

Fine, halving is coming now and the ETF has been approved, but after all that, what is next? That is why traders should be dynamic just as the market is dynamic since no factor affecting it now is permanent and our most beliefs about the market could be disappointed at times. This is just as you expected the ETF to have pushed to market to above $50,000 but the market is still now far below it. Therefore, guiding ourselves beyond halving and ETF prevails in my opinion in the short and long-term outlook of the market, and nothing is confusing here if you are well informed about the situation.

I think the Bitcoin market is growing remarkably and still has lots of room to continue growing but I’d also like to add that alt coins should not be looked at as nonsense and a waste of investment cause that’s how you see it on the contrary their are purposeful alt coins doing ground breaking developments and there are data’s to prove this what’s happening right now is simply natural Bitcoin is and will always remain the grand sire of crypto currency’s but don’t sleep on alt coins they’ll definitely surprise you like Bitcoin did the world.

That's not quite right. Not all cryptocurrencies move in lockstep, despite what it may seem.  Sure, the big dogs like Bitcoin tend to set the overall mood in crypto markets.  When BTC crashes, almost everything else comes down with it.  But the altcoins? They often dance to the beat of their own drum thanks to their tiny market caps and some unique use-cases.  It's like when the recess bell rings - the big kids run off in a herd while the little tykes trip over their untied shoelaces along the way.  So next time the market takes a spill remember that not everything is sinking at the same rate and  the crappy altcoins might just surprise you.  ;)

really?  this will only take an HOUR TO ANALYZE THE CHART? wow so you are a trader mate? 
can you share us what would be the movement in the next 24 hours because I really needed to make money now?

lol Sideways will effect the market , this is the reason why our expectation comes wrong and
if you are not ready in this then you will be the loser.

Bitcoin reduced in price for few days but now the price is again going higher and higher as it was 39k$ but today it is 42k$ which means that we are entering into the Bull season. Ethereum gain more success after ETF approval of Bitcoin more than bitcoin itself because it is second good and successful coin in which we can put maximum amount without any worry.

Now ethereum is 2300$ which seems as slight dip for Etheruem but altcoins are effected in a similar pattern as they of bitcoin is effected but remember that as higher the bitcoin will move same will be the altcoins condition.

Well when it comes to profit generation, I think there are couple of coins that can get you some high value profits but you would have understand that the risk sometimes involved in these coins are like 50/50 because at any second the coins that is yielding high profits can decide to dropped dramatically that even you yourself would be surprised to how and what really transpired that lead to the massive dip and that's where Bitcoin beats all because when Bitcoin do dip so many people are joyous because it opens a wonderful opportunity for many to buy as there is always certainty that it will go up again.

I think the only reason it seems like Bitcoin is the currency that has grown the most its because it's the most relevant and the king of all coins.

But as far as I know, nobody is paying much attention to other coins as the price is the measure of success from the pool of thousands of coins we have out there...and the fact that we have coins still under the radar posting some big numbers in terms of ROI and its only because that they are in cents are still crawling to the top...BItcoins $40000 price does mask a lot of stuff behind it but it's certainly not the best performing..
