according to an expert, bitcoin could hit $100k this week.. are you ready for that?


So, what are we expecting this week? Are we looking at a possible $100K breakout that could push the market into full bull mode again?

The last time I saw a strong bullish run like this was when Trump was winning the election. It lasted a while, but after he took office, Bitcoin slowly started dropping.

Now that we’re back at this level, I really think the comeback is real - and it could trigger a solid bullish momentum.

Quarter 2 or Q2 April 2025 is quite positive in terms of Bitcoin's percentage return, but last year in April, Q2 was negative or red but in the same year and in May too, Bitcoin's return in Q3 was very positive so it can be used as a reason that I can accept that this May will have a positive result.
But for this week with 3 days left still makes me believe that $100,000 is a price I can expect to see. That is, I am ready.

BTC price is ~95k now, so $100k and above could be anytime from now, except the price drops below $90k again, having already broken that resistance. I believe this is a speculation topic by the way, because we can only speculate on what we think and believe, i am not sure of any major movement this week, except there is a big news or something that would create large inflows, but it should not take too long before we reach $100k and above again.

This is why I love bitcoin because there are always speculators sharing their point of view what will be the next price movement of bitcoin. I am also expecting $100k anytime soon, because bitcoin price has only dipped to $94k+ and will bounce back to $97k+ and dip again since the last two days. This is a sign that $100k price can be achieved within a twinkle of an eye any moments from now.

This is a speculation topic! isn't it?

Well my closest guess is on Wednesday to attain the 100kish price, we've touched 97k plus and once we touch 99k, 100k is inevitable on the same week.

We are now at $94k but still the prediction about Bitcoin to reach at $100k this week still quiet reasonable since somehow it shows some potential to climb up to that figures.

Also will add this article here since somehow they show some good analysis about possible to happen on Bitcoin in upcoming days https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-will-btc-head-in-may-2025/

So lets really monitor if those positive prediction or analysis is true since somehow its so great to see Bitcoin to touch at $100k again since it provably create another huge noise to people not only investing on it, but also to those people who monitor the latest situation.

Honestly, I personally don't really care about the price of Bitcoin to reach $ 100K this week, because I have seen the price of Bitcoin at the level of $ 109K.
Besides, many Bitcoin users are not targeting $ 100K bitcoin prices, many investors take their long-term investment crews at $ 90k- $ 95k meaning they hope the price of bitcoin can reach at $ 250k to $ 300 next year, not this week.

I think I can expect $ 100K if the initial buying $ 50k is possible for them to be big hope, seeing the current Bitcoin price, $ 100k is the hope that they trade at least a few percent increase, $ 100k is not hope for the long term.

We expected Bitcoin to hit $100k before April ended and that didn't happen, but Bitcoin recovered to $97k and is currently trading above $95k.

I have no doubt that Bitcoin will return to $100k this month, as we are very close to that target, but to make a prediction this week I am not so sure.

As far as I know, we have a pretty big news this week, which is the FOMC meeting and the Fed will announce whether or not to cut rates after the meeting ends. The market usually reacts to this news, I think the trend of bitcoin this week depends entirely on the Fed interest rate announcement.

Anybody can predict the price of Bitcoin and sometimes it happens, and in some cases, the prediction fails. I am also amazed at the title people give themselves in the crypto space, "crypto research strategist"  :D

My prediction is that $100,000 and above is possible if there is some positive news, such as rumours about the reduction of interest rates by the Feds and the settlement of the tariff war between the US and China.

This could be a good speculation, and I am anticipating a price pump higher than that before the week runs out. It is not bad to say so because so far, there have been good recovery steps as soon as the bitcoin trend started, and it has taken good shape to full recovery last week. Possibly, it might get to $110k to $115k before this week comes to an end.

The volatility may start to increase tomorrow which can let us know if truly bitcoin can get to $100000 this week. But I think bitcoin may remain within $90000 and $97500 this week.

I may be wrong because this is just a guess. But I know the bull market is not over yet and bitcoin may later get to all-time high but which may not be in this month.

Bitcoin price is a bit far from where it is now, currently Bitcoin price is touching $95.2K. And this week Bitcoin price touched $97.8, we can estimate that Bitcoin price will touch $100K in just a short time.
If Bitcoin price enters below $90K from now on, then Bitcoin price will likely touch $100K by the end of May, but I believe and can estimate that Bitcoin price will likely touch $100K this week. Since Bitcoin price touched $109K earlier this year, I think it is normal for Bitcoin price to go above $100K at this current time.

He’s an expert for a reason, and since I’m bullish on Bitcoin, I’m not going to argue with his prediction.

Even if the reasons he mentioned didn’t actually happen or aren’t present right now, it’s still possible for Bitcoin to reach $100K. We’ve been in that range before, so it’s not something new. Sometimes, experts just try to find reasons without realizing that demand is increasing already, and that’s what’s really strengthening Bitcoin’s position right now.

Bitcoin can go either way, nothing is certain, but yes, Bitcoin has a much better chance, if there is no negative movement, it can easily be $110k to $115k, which will be a new ATH.
Although Bitcoin is in a bit of a downward trend today, it is currently at $95K, but it will recover very soon and can pump a lot more. We should have the right faith in Bitcoin and be consistent in holding it. Bitcoin will definitely be a great success in the long run.

Honestly I'm anticipating in this regard cause it seem to be a moment of possibility and achievement. Seeing the speculation and the price days back it occured to me that certainly there would be a bullish return,and definitely this week we'll experience the price at 100k or even more though it's quite understandable that there could be an upward and downward trend but certainly we hope for the price at $100k this week or soon.

The market has been consolidating since the last two weeks and personally I think the consolidation is enough in my opinion to start an upward movement. Bitcoin had tested the resistance above $97k and then came back to the $94k-$95k rejoin, it has been able to retain this trend for more than a week which tells me that the sellers who were in control before due to the tariff war saga are actually looking low, the buyers seems to be taking control with lead taken by most institutions who are suddenly buying chunks of bitcoin maybe because of fear of missing out at this moment.

The $100k is achievable this week because even with the low volume bitcoin still broke the resistance at $95k which means any positive now will only trigger to a higher purchase volume and send the market above the $100k which I am expecting a long term consolidation at

I am not yet completely sold right now that it could reach $100k by this week. The $97k price was really exciting and I am sure a lot of investors got excited too but now it is dropping again to $95k. Investors taking profit already? I tried to keep the excitement and to be patient because it might not be this week but May could be the month where bitcoin finally reaches $100k.

We should not lose patience and faith in Bitcoin, if we want to see a big pump, we have to endure corrections, because Bitcoin always goes through such corrections before a big pump, we all hope that Bitcoin will cross $100K very soon, and when Bitcoin went to $97K, many were very happy that Bitcoin might cross $100K now, but due to this current dump, Bitcoin has returned to $95K, and many may have been disappointed at this time.
But they should maintain a positive mindset, Bitcoin will cross $100K this week or this month, and if it does not reach $100K this month, is there any problem? Bitcoin will cross $100K this month or next month whatever, it will definitely go up to $100K, whether it is today or next month. We should always maintain a long-term positive mindset and hold for the long term, no matter what the short-term price is.

Speculators are what give traders hope so it's safe to say they are what adds spice to the whole thing. I'm also optimistic that we'd see a different price this month, being that the later part of April showed some promise of Bitcoin getting to $100k, so maybe we'd get to see that happening in May.
 I really don't blame these experts when they make their analysis for Bitcoin because they too need some new waves and when just the slightest increase occurs, you see them giving their two cents.

$100k is very close, it could happen this week. However, it will depend on the strength of the market growth. The moment it hit $100k like the first time, it was around $95k and moved up and down several times until it finally hit $100k.
If the momentum is supportive, my speculation is that the price could be reached by the end of the week. If it misses, we might need a longer time in Q2.

I am always bullish on the market and to whatever Bitcoin yield to, if bitcon soar then fine I makes profits and if Bitcoin decreases then I still accumulate more and increase my portfolio. Usually lot of people have invested in Bitcoin and they are all giving positive news for Bitcoin to pick it from it previous price with the hope that more people would venture the market just for the market to soar above expected. So, I am always optimistic about the market breaking out 100k before this months ends.

That’s what we are all thinking and hope that a full bull run will happen anytime soon. The market has been on a very solid bull momentum for a while now and all expectations are that once it breaks the resistance of $98K holding it back now, we should see it breaking $100K. I’m also anticipating for such in the coming weeks even though the market can be so unpredictable to follow.

Trump effect on the market when he was winning the election was because of the strong love he had for bitcoin and winning it signifies that there is going to be better days for bitcoin and its community of holders, so we experienced more investors at that time. His tariff wars made the market fall so badly and had to be on the bearish period for a while, so it’s all a passing moment and the market will get back on track soon again after seeing the positive momentum it showed in the month of April. The month of may should hold plenty for us, so let’s keep a track of the market movement.

I participated in a contest, my prediction for the contest is around $97K to $98K, but for the past day or two the price of Bitcoin has been around $95K, i always know mondays to be a good week for the market, hopefully tomorrow Bitcoin will get up to $97K then following days we might experience something significant, will Bitcoin reach the $100K before weekend.

It’s really possible that we could see a price breakthrough this week especially if another big news will hit the market positively. It could even pass through $100k or above, depending on how heavy the impact is. However, we cannot be confident enough though if there would be another price drop first before we will see btc price hitting  $100k knowing bitcoin is highly volatile. So all we have to do is just to wait patiently and prepare whatever it is.

Even if $100k doesn't reach this week, it could reach it in a few weeks. Since the expert said a full week, the probability of being wrong is a bit high.
We've seen this level, there will be a return, and it's even waiting in the near future. It's really hard to give an exact date for this return in bitcoin prices.
It already came very close in price, it rose to 97k dollars the other day, but then pulled back a little.

I haven't been monitoring the market for long now because I'm seriously engaged in different offline activities but however if bitcoin keeps going back to 95kish price then I will be of the opinion that it's going to take at least a week to reach 100k again but if it doesn't or does go to 100k before then, that means the speculation in my thoughts are totally wrong which is quite ok.

I'm not really good at price predictions but I try to make my guesses close to the outcome but since I'm currently blind in the activities of the market then I will hope for the best while expecting the worse.

Currently, sentiments are positive so now it's not matter which figure is currently because its strong feeling June 2025 is going to be had good for bitcoin with another good $100K coming which will keep things on balance.
Last few weeks were depressing, but now its look like market is having bullish trend and big players are taking their positions now just need to stay around $95K to $98K because this will also keep all on right side.
Peoples confidence level is increasing which is good factor for having good increase in price few countries are also working on having bitcoin for their reserve which is also good even still things are not clear about this but as talks and media reports are coming it's always had good and positive for bitcoin.

Same here. I’m not really good at technical analysis, but I’m bullish, so I can easily agree that we might see the $100K level this week.

Honestly, I love reading articles like this, especially when it’s from an expert. It gives me optimism, knowing that the coins I bought during the dip might finally give me a chance to cash out a little profit and enjoy a possible mini bull run.

Do not know much about the technical aspect of Bitcoin and how to interpret the charts. But I am a hodler, and I have known some patterns of Bitcoin price movement even without reference to chart or news. The type of movement that bitcoin is making these days doesn't show that it will drop below $90k any soon. The bitcoin price movement is signalling upward trend. I didn't see this from any chart or from experts, but I have this great feelings that we are going towards $100k and above.

Even if you pay attention to fundamental analysis, you will realise that every news in the internet is just too bullish. If it is not individuals buying bitcoin, it is institutions buying or more funds entering ETFs. All these are bullish news and I feel it will continue this way for a long time if no bad news interrupts the progress.

I’m also optimistic for bitcoin to achieve $100k price this week, this is very possible most especially if Trump will create another hype for bitcoin. But I’m also open that if its not going to happen this week, then most likely it will really be possible within the next days or let’s say months if ever price crash suddenly occur.

With the volatility that goes along with bitcoin, everything is possible. It’s just that we can’t certainly pinpoint on what particular day or month this price will be achieved.

That sounds more realistic than expecting to reach $100k within this week. But as for me, I’ve always been optimistic about bitcoin, even if it is in its deepest dips. I know the excellent potentials of bitcoin, it will always go up and reach new heights despite how bearish the market is. But since the market is actually bullish these days, if not this week, $100k will be more possible the following week, let’s just trust the process.

It looks like Bitcoin is correcting and dropping below $95k so I don't think we can hit $100k this week. The market is more likely to move sideways than break out, which is understandable since the FOMO meeting starts in 2 days and as usual, the market is not too volatile until the meeting ends and the interest rate news is released.

But I believe bitcoin can hit $100k or more this month. It took Bitcoin less than 3 weeks (April 9 to May 1) to recover from $74k to $97k. So as long as no overly negative news impacts the market, it should not be too difficult for bitcoin to return to $100k from now on.

I'm the complete opposite. I love reading posts from non-experts on LinkedIn and bitcointalk. Hey, it's why I'm here. If I wanted experts I'd stick to Google or Fortune, Bloomberg, maybe even pay to read AI-assisted commentary/analyses. Who doesn't like to circle backpat each other and feel good about things, yeah? It's not like we can rely on things outside of Bitcoin.

P.S. Mini bull run? We're still up over 100% YTD. What's a medium bull run going to look like for you? haha

Well we are just coming off the weekend and we all know that during the weekend there's usually low market activities. But now that the weekend is over, I believe that there is going to be more market activities hopefully it will push the market trends upward. But I don't really think that we are going to see $100k this week. But one thing that I am believing is that before the month of May runs out Bitcoin is definitely going to hit $100k and possibly go above it. Hopefully before the week runs out Bitcoin might retest the resistance level of $97k we saw it rise to last week.

The market will break the 100K level at some point again but this does not mean that it will do this in this month. I think we should be open to the situation as the markets will only react positively when the tariff agreement is met and the bullish momentum come either through rates cuts or QE. We need to have money flow and liquidity in the market in order for the risky markets to pump. One can analyze the previous bull season and we will know that 2021 bull cycle was also due to excessive money printing during the covid-19 crisis.

This week? I think bitcoin has dropped a bit to $94K now although anything can happen considering $100K is still very close... but my prediction of $100K this week will not be achieved unless you call it for May then there is still a chance to touch it.

Sometimes predictions from experts are always the concern of many people even though this leads to positive things, we still have to see the direction of the market movement according to the desired scenario.
Maybe I expect this month at least in June bitcoin to $100K ... (only my predictions say).

Given the current market conditions, I agree with you. $100K seems unlikely this week, but there seems to be plenty of time to look forward to this month and some positives could fuel a big rally. The current price is certainly lower than it was a few days ago, but I see this correction as part of an important reaction before the rally starts. Many were pessimistic about the market recovery when bitcoin dropped to $74k a while ago, but we have seen that bitcoin has the power to recover even though $100k is not yet broken as a major resistance.

I don't think too much and worry about this little volatility as long as I think the bull season is not over, I think we have a chance to get a new ATH this year. Regardless of when it happens, you have to be ready for all the consequences. In the long run, bitcoin is still a good performing investment asset compared to others.

We all wanted to see this happen but without big news to initiate and fuel the market sentiment, then we might need to wait a little longer.


A normal Bitcoin trading volume, not much of a sentiment shift,  no big good news, no hype.


Indeed we are looking at a possible $100k breakout so we need to have another Big company or a country that will initiate the market hype of Bitcoin.


Bitcoin is known for its comeback.  We can see this in the Bitcoin price history but nothing will be triggered if there is no catalyst to trigger it.  Bitcoin is already in a bullish momentum we just need great news to commence a powerful push on the Bitcoin price uptrend.

No matter what I still don't see $100k this week but if you say before this month runs out I'd say yes it might but let's judge base on how the market movement have been since the beginning of this week or this month, to me it hasn't been productive like it wants to get into that 6 digits because currently Bitcoin is $94k which I never expected to be in that amount but with time it will get to $98k before we think of $100k. For me by now it would have gotten to $100k because as of last week the way the market price has been acting shows it was heading to a much bigger amount and I think it stopped at $95k or $97k before dropping so this week can't produce anything close to $100k, maybe second week of this month.

I am not sure if that was the reason. I think we have gone up a lot, and now the market is basically playing chicken .We have gone up so much that we are now waiting to see if it will continue to go up, or will it go down. This means we are having some trouble getting in the market.

Nobody is willing to buy more, and they are also not willing to sell neither, we are just waiting and trying to see what will happen. But because we are all waiting to see which direction it will go, it is not going any direction, it requires a decent amount of buying to go up, or decent amount of selling to go down, we already have normal regular market movements of traders, but we need more than that to move, but because we are waiting to see, it is not moving anywhere.

We are expecting $100 if possible happen this week. We don't know if that can happen this week or if we need to wait longer. If we see what happens to the market, the price seems have a push to the high price. But the price still not increase so high so there is nothing we can do except continue accumulate.

We only need to wait and see what will happen this week so we can hope that there will be a change for the price to increase. But $100k will be reached no matter how long we need to wait so be patient.

I'm not sure why are you expecting a push to $100k when the price is trading sideways after reaching as high as $97k. It means that there is resistance to $98k and obviously we need to break that in order to get to 6 digits again.

Let the price flows naturally, we don't want to see artificial price increase because it's a clear manipulation. And if that happens then sooner or later there will be a huge correction. So just let it be, if it will get to $100k then good, the most important thing is to continue to accumulate.

Probably not this week, but I won't be surprised if we see a 100K USD price by the end of May or June. However, this is going to last only for a day or two, and I don't think that we are heading towards a solid bull run(not in the next 7-8 months). Trump stopped doing his "shocking tariff moves" and the markets recovered, but the 90-day "negotiation period" will come to an end and the tariffs might stay(or even Trump might increase some tariffs). The US job market data is somewhat positive, but this isn't enough for a strong bullish movement on the markets.

I had previously said that I was ready at $100k. Exactly at that time I said that with 3 days left. Now going into the first week there is only one day left and the price is already below $95k.
Although $100,000 could be the most likely price, the signs of reaching it are still not strong.

If not this week, maybe this month.
But we must have an analysis that convinces us that 2025 is a good year for Bitcoin.

Ofcourse this is a speculation board and this thread is a speculative topic so it means that we are free to predict any amount that we think Bitcoin will be in the next 24 hours or 24 days. Your prediction is $100k on Wednesday, and that is tomorrow but presently price is above $93k now, let us wait and see whether it will hit $100k mark by tomorrow. I will go beyond tomorrow and this week to put my prediction somewhere within this month of May, to see price at $100k so we can move on and talk about ATH. My consolation is my believe that we are still in the bull run, what we need is some positive news to skyrocket price into the next level of the bull season.

I don’t know if $100k will surely be hit this week, but I don’t give it a timeline, but one thing is certain, it will definitely reach $100k in the next couple of days, just don’t want to set a date. For now, we are seeing quite a price drop, and it’s a good move actually, because after that a potential bounce back might be next to happen, and will open a new price opportunity for us to witness $100k or even more than that.

The exact date will never be known --- because bitcoin is now quite slow to go up, only experiencing a small correction that makes the price stagnate in the current area.
I actually don't care about that even targeting this week $100K never crossed my mind because looking ahead then it should happen to the $100K range.
What is clear is that at least now there is nothing too negative that makes the market amber, now it's a little calm.

In the last 4hr bar its just turned back up and broken above the weekly average so quite possibly 100k challenged this week again.   I looked at the dollar index and Im not convinced its in any kind of recovery, I think along with gold and most of the world there are many doubters as to the strength of dollars currently.   That helps BTC but it was not a valid concern to especially think Bitcoin would be greatly troubled this year; zoom out BTC only retracted some of the prior gains which is quite helpful long term.

Today the price is back up to $96,500, so $100k is not difficult, but the timing will not be predicted exactly, but it is possible to achieve this month, even more than $100k.

The question is whether it will pass the last ATH or the last ATH will be the ATH for this 4-year cycle before finally slowly falling.

There is a price increase that is happening right now but it is quite slow, if you look at conditions like this there is a possibility that 100k this week will not happen but what is clear is that with market conditions continuing like this to redeem the price it can happen we just have to wait.
Honestly as a long term holder I don't really think about things like this but for market traders like this is the right time to make a profit.

This week, $100k is difficult to assess despite the pump we have witnessed last week. However, $100k for this month? Certainly this is very much a possibility heheheh. If Arthur Hayes is correct, the support on $74k on April might be the last low that we will experience. But if he is wrong, we can certainly be very much certain that this will be the beginning of the bear market.

This week Bitcoin still trying to reach the higher price than before. So we better wait and see if $100k really happen this week or next week. But for this month, I guess Bitcoin can be back to $100k because we are almost reach that price.

Yes, that is possible to happen this month so we don't have to wait to buy Bitcoin and use this moment. I read about the support on $74k will be the last low but we are now is at $96k and still going up.

Hopefully, this will not only temporary happen but will still increase and reach $100k. Many people waiting for $100k because perhaps, they want to sell at that price ;D

Well let just watch how the market moves as I know that anything is possible and even if the market crosses 100k then there's need for it because lot of positive news around the market. Usually we should be expecting bull trends from this Q2 and any moment from now if you look from the previous halving you would know the bull doesn't extend to this point and of course when the tariff agreement are met then it would also help to boost the market so quickly.

Very very close, it is probably going to not reach 100k, but it got very close and it could be done. I am sure that we are going to make a lot more money if we could just keep on making as much money as possible with the way it could grow.

I understand it is not going to be easy to see 100k because it is a psychological barrier but if we can break it this week then the future looks bright and we could make a lot more money. I know that it is not easy to pull ourselves that high, because going from 90k to 95k is easier than going from 99k to 101k , and that means it may not happen this week. We may need to try and test a few times, then crash a bit more, to see what is the weakness and resistance level. If we can do that then we are going to make a serious amount of cash.

Today the price of Bitcoin is very close to $100k. Maybe at any time we will see that Bitcoin has crossed $100k dollars. The current price of Bitcoin is $99303, I am waiting to see $100k again. Let's see if the price of Bitcoin is $100k today.

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2025/05/08/UUP6Sz.jpeg

$98,000 has passed and we are at $99k level so that means, $100,000 is closer and could happen today. Although the price is down for a moment, I am sure the price will increase back. The price looks sideways but slowly increases day by day so we just need to wait for a while and be patient. Once the price is back to $100,000, we may see another surprise from Bitcoin so wait for that.

The price now moves good as the market shows a green candle and sooner or later, we will see an increase of the price. It will go back to $100k and increase more so there is no need to worry. Meanwhile, we can stay calm and monitor the market movement so we can get more information about the market and we can know what we need to do.

We almost see Bitcoin price reach $100k. We just need to wait for a while.

But the next question is what will we do? For Bitcoin holders, they will still accumulate more Bitcoin amount. For traders, they will take their profits while waiting for the correction to come so they can buy low again.

But for those who panic seeing the price will regret why they don't decide to buy yesterday when Bitcoin price still at a low ;D

I believe that you know that every speculation is a personal opinion, and not all speculation that comes to reality,  because so many persons has their own way of expressing their feelings of what will happen in bitcoins price,  and sometimes their expectations will not come to reality, believing on a speculation is just like giving yourself hope, it may come to reality and it may not come to reality, so what I want you to understand is that, bitcoin get increase when the market is favorable, and such happens if the demand accumulates, and people speculate just examined the market, and some of them interpret the market wrongly and that's why some people gives false speculation.

Bitcoin seems to be hitting the $100K milestone in just a few moments. Right now, Bitcoin price right now $99,506, $100K is just a short distance away, and it is expected that Bitcoin will cross $100K today. And there are many more positive pumping ahead, and I expect Bitcoin to continue moving forward after crossing $100K. So personally, I think if someone sells at $100K, they are missing out more better opportunity to become more profitable.

Recently there had been recession as a course of inflation and unemployment including the global markets policies which has some points negatively conditioned the price of Bitcoin which blattered discouragement for investors in the both physical and digital assets industries aftermath following the Trumps tarrif policies.

Matt Mena was right if followed his compiled technical analysis sighted that Bitcoin could hit $100K in the come weeks which already $99K has been achieved and close to $100K after seemly that we have been embattling to break the resistance of $95K.

This great achievement is a result of the macroeconomic environment being reshaped centered on creating massive job employments and ease of centralized regulatory policies which curtailed low inflations that digested to economy growth and ignited the fair monetary frameworks which prompted the macro backdrop lately encouraging investors in the Bitcoin market and had also rendered a surge to the liquidation which is pumping the Bitcoin price after regaining it momentum to recovery.

And if the trends of the liquidation entry keep to stability, we might as well see a new ATH within a short while.

That is how economic analyst of Matt Mena has convinced us based on his market survey and technical views. And in no doubt, it is getting obvious that all being said could be true if only we can notice an ease of the recession and the price ratio since the week.

I do not see any possibility of it getting to $100,000 in this week because the market is not showing any signs of such movement happening and regardless of it happening, I do not think the market has the volume to support the price. It will just crash back down therefore I do not think the market is ready for that price. We have alot of people thinking about taking profits at that price therefore the market will need alot of money to push it up and that kind of volume will only come from there being a very bullish news. For now I do not think there is going to be any big news that will make the market to react in that way. Things can change all of a sudden but I also do not want to give myself hopes of it happening but later get disappointed.

Maybe you have missed looking at Bitcoin's price now. The highest price that we've seen for today is $99,829. So, that means that we're just a few hundred away to see Bitcoin $100k. And there is a likelihood that before this week ends, we might see Bitcoin reach back to $100k. So, that possibility that you don't see is probably you haven't seen the price movement as of today. We've got some quick moves happening in the market now and I have no idea yet of what actually is happening but OP seems to be right on this call.

Add some K. But yeah, very likely we'll see $100k.

Thank you for your observation because I just saw it now after posting, and was about correcting my stand but still I will not be in a hurry because I have seen times when the market almost crossed a particular price but it later started falling after it was not capable of passing that price. I hope that is not what is happening because I am beginning to see some red candle in the market after looking at the chart with the 4hrs timeframe. This has to be sellers taking profits with the fear that the market might retrace back when the resistance is not being broken. Regardless of what happens, if $100,000 happens this week or not that is not my focus because what matters more is the price by the end of the year to give me good return on my purchase.

just hit,

 good prediction

And here it comes, the price of bitcoin have just hit $100k again for the umpteenth time today after a very long time of struggling to reach the record breaking ATH of December 5th, 2024, the day that the price of bitcoin first hit $100k. It is another feeling of excitement today even though the price has hit $100k severally but it feels so good when after some months of being in the 5 digits level, it now came back again to the 6 digit level once more and this is to show that we are very close to a new ATH.

Not quite right as it missed by a bit. But if the week count is based on the date OP created the topic, then yes it's right on target. The problem is that Bitcoin has just reached $100,000 and progress to above $100,000 is ongoing.
If it can survive, then this May will return to the ATH price. We must know that Bitcoin is volatile. Suddenly when it was going up, it went back down.

Already reached $100K friend and now on the way to $101,000.

You don't have to hurry and think that it should fall because many have been telling it to happen. Because just now, it did crossed $100k again. :)
We don't need to wait for a week or two anymore because it did happened again. Well, that's an interesting thought for the year end because we all sure looking forward to that day as well.

Yeah, welcome back to 6 digits. We've waited for it again and so after 3 months, it's back and hopefully we'll see new ATHs soon.

Coming here again to say that this prediction was correct as the price is now $101K meaning it was achieved.

While it's good to see the price going up means there is hope again for $150K in the next few months, who knows if it will go further for bitcoin as I see so many pundits predicting above $200K.

Maybe this is the start of another bull run, keep your coins.

To be fair, while it is short just a hundred dollars, I am sure it is nothing. We need to realize, it is not about 100k, over it, under it, that doesn't matter. What matters is we need to see it change for the long term and that is the most important part. If we can do that then we are not going to have any trouble at all due to price not being that important at small difference.

What really matters is the ATH price, that is a bit more psychological and because of that we are sure that we are going to break over it and be a lot better. I believe if we break over it, then we could do a lot more profit later on, like reaching 110k means, reaching 120k is easier, and even 130k, so we need to not focus on 100k and give it too much importance, but give it more time and reach over ATH price.

Achieving $100k is no longer a prediction, it has happened and I'm happy about it, it shows that a second phase of bullish trend is building up. New we're looking at how long it'll take to hit a new ATH, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens soonest. I'm taking my prediction one step at a time, after seeing price at $100k my next step is beating the current ATH and then the most anticipated prediction of $150k, all the way through to the peak prediction of most of us in this bull circle $200k. If Bitcoin hits $200k before the bear run many of us will be rich as a result of high ROI.

Most investors were happy to see $100k today, it was as if it is the first time we are hitting $100k because i saw the excitement all over the internet again. Hitting $100k and even up to $101k today is just a reminder that the price of bitcoin can reach any price at a time we least expected and moreover, the market is very bullish which means that we should be expecting the price to approach and break the previous ATH any moment from now because the speed the price moved with today was so amazing so if the market experience such movement again then we are close to a new ATH after which we can be anticipating the price to reach $150k or $200k before the end of the year.

Glad to see bitcoin reaching $100K once again after a lot of tussle in the past about whether it’s going to recover back or not while many people are still seeing bitcoin going to a bearish cycle so soon without having a new all time high. What happened in the market today after bitcoin crossed $100K is another indication that we should be a patient hodler, bitcoin is an easy but a patient way to make money, we should not only panic sell when we see a bearish momentum in the market. It is good that the bulls have taken over the market, let’s see how far it’ll take the market to reach a new all time high after reaching $100K once again this year.

Thats a great prediction, we are currently $101+k !

Its  not often we a prediction actually coming true. I certainly didnt think the market
 would be hitting $100k this early but hey thats why I'm not a trader!

Definitely hitting the $100k again is a feel good factor and puts the doubters on
the back foot, also for those of us who have to sell Bitcoin this high is very beneficial.

You save yourself a lot of stress not being a trader and as a matter of fact most of us here have lost a significant amount of money in the past when we try to gamble on the price of Bitcoin and what direction it will go but in the end, we realize that Bitcoin is quite an unpredictable assets and at that we can only gamble in the price of Bitcoin and not actually trading it since anything can happen unexpectedly.

Yes. Please lock thread and I will start a new one Ath this week?

As you can see $100k expectation was even less compared to what we saw today. Bitcoin has even touched $104k ballpark but as at the time of me making this post it is $103k indeed Bitcoin is really unpredictable. Although many of us though it will take the end of this month to achieve this price but was so quick to atain such hight in a short period of time. From the way I am seeing ATH may be achieved this week. Who knows if may eveen take place withing 24hours. If iit took Bitcoin less than 24 hours to achieve this height it then mean that in less than 24hours again ATH may be expected

Of course, it is hard to make a definite prediction for the price of bitcoin, but when the fundamentals and market sentiment are positive enough, then you can be very optimistic to say that the price will go up significantly. I have seen the price break $104k today, it is down a bit as I write this, but that is normal. A new ATH could be printed this week, but we never know how strong bitcoin can stay above $103k.

However, I would still say that a new ATH will be hit during this month regardless of how fast or slow it is. May should be a good time to expect a new ATH for bitcoin, but on the other hand there is some data that suggests that May is not always green for bitcoin. I am optimistic, and so are you, as it seems.

I think we all know that it's a unpredictable asset, and that's what we love about Bitcoin though as traders or speculators can make a lot of money although there is risk involved as others compare it to gambling. But in any case for us who chooses to just HODL, then it's this time that we are happy to see the price going up to 6 digits again and as if all the hard work has paid off by just accumulating in months or years and never sold anything as we look at the long term. But still though, we need to wait for at least at the end of the month to truly maximized our profits here.

Missing $101k, we are now just waiting for the new ATH as $104k has also been touched. The $103k price that is now being traded is already the beginning for us to be able to confidently expect that the ATH will arrive soon. At least hoping that Bitcoin reaches a price of $109k and $110k is not something far and excessive if we want to wait in the next few days.

The current market movement is very good, we did not expect bitcoin to rise to $103K so soon, Bitcoin always shows such unexpected pumping, according to the current movement of Bitcoin, there is a very good chance that Bitcoin will break its previous ATH this month. But we should always have a long-term plan, according to the current movement, $110K is not too difficult, but we should keep our target bigger, keep holding for 10 years in the long term, in the long term, Bitcoin may go to a Such level in 10 years, from where $110K will seem much lower.

Well that is true, despite the fast growth of Bitcoin this period we can not assume that ATH will be achieved this week, morover the week has nearly ended. It will be more realistic to think of ATH by this month end or next. In one of my comment earlier in this speculation board i speculated that ATH will be achieved this week or around 11 of may but with the look of things, I am optimistic that it may not be possible this week but looking towards the end of the month will be more realistic.

The momentum with which Bitcoin have moved in past few days makes me think that a new ATH is imminent. For the past six days Bitcoin have gained over 6% and if that energy is sustained, then we will be seeing a new high by next week and this will shatter several predictions of people who felt that we will be entering major correction from this month to the end of third quarter of this year before the move that will create the peak of this market cycle will start. With this recent move, one can only imagine how far Bitcoin will go before we reach the peak.

It stayed for $103k but it has reached $104k as well. So, this is the good times for those that have plans of 'you know' what they are about to do. I am also hoping that we can at least see $109k back again and more of the next ATH that we should see any moment from now on. People are already placing their bids to $120k to $150k for this cycle and the year hasn't ended yet. We've got high prices that are being waited to be seen and so, let the waiting game begins.

From the conditions that we are currently seeing in the price of Bitcoin, I think it can definitely make Bitcoin close to the highest number it has ever seen this year and it is not impossible to even make a new high this month. I have never doubted the potential of the price of Bitcoin because as long as the enthusiasts and holders can continue to increase this year, of course this will make Bitcoin more expensive because there is increasing purchasing power. So for now there is nothing wrong with hoping fully for Bitcoin because Bitcoin is an asset that is able to provide the best facts for everyone.

If look at bitcoin's performance in May in previous years, I wouldn't call it a positive month for bitcoin. Because according to CoinGlass from 2013 to 2024, we have 6 red candles and 6 green candles, they are equal.

This is a pretty interesting chart to keep in mind for bitcoin's performance but I don't think relying on this data to make predictions will be effective. Because economic and political situations change every year, they will have different impacts on the market. For example, we didn't have a trade war or a pro-crypto government last May...So for me, this is not a reliable indicator, instead we should rely on current conditions to make more accurate predictions.
And with positive news on the trade war, we have reason to be optimistic this month.

Bitcoin is currently up now, and it is doing perfectly well, but notwithstanding, it has a good projection and possibly, it could achieve a new all-time high before this new week comes to an end, but I am still sceptical about the market, though, which looks more like a manipulation. Well, I will just be speculating for the time being until it achieves a new all-time high, then I can say that the speculations were a real projection.

According to the current market situation, every investor is now very optimistic about Bitcoin, and Bitcoin is currently giving a strong bullish signal. Actually we have to have faith and patience, Bitcoin moves in unexpected directions, try to understand the reality, we all hope that Bitcoin will cross $110K within this month, but can anyone give a guarantee? No, so even if Bitcoin does not cross the previous ATH this month, we should not be disappointed in any way, we do not know what will actually happen, but we have to continue holding with a positive attitude with reality.

Back down to 100k maybe but its on top of the 2 day average today and maintaining that level.  The weekly average is much below nearer to 100k.
  Anywhere above 98k to 92k even I remain bullish and even more so then if we went straight up to the old ATH without hesitation right now.  I think balancing for selling and only then resolving upwards is where we get real rolled steel strength into the price from, a fast set upwards makes us weaker probably so Im fine with some pullback here.

It is volatile which makes the market price difficult to predict.

It's okay to target long term with a holding period of up to 10 years for bigger targets, but I'm afraid not everyone can afford it. This is logic, don't make excuses.
If in this bullish trend we can make good use of it through our way, I believe we can also benefit for the long term with big targets.

As a Bitcoin investor we should always a long term investment plan, but that doesn't stop us from being strategic about it. To buy Bitcoin at low price during bearish market to later sell at high price(bull market).

Many Bitcoin investors have been doing it and it has been profitable them for quite long. You can choose to do that or remain with 10 years hodl target. That's not bad because
every one of us should invest and hodl Bitcoin on how long they think their speculated price they have in mind about Bitcoin can come into existence.

I believe that we might even see Bitcoin coming down to $95k-96k before taking off to new all time highs, most of retail trade breakouts, which have 30% of chance of happening and now we are close to breaking the all time highs.
So pulling the price down into the liquidation prices of most of retail below $98k will trigger a bigger move to the downside to liquidate overleveraged longs imo.
There's a huge chance we see below $100k this week, unless $104k breaks to the upside, then we will most likely see bitcoin reaching into all time highs and probably make new all time highs.
But we need to move one step at the time, as of right now, downside I think it's more likely.

thats a good point actually i also believe it needs to go down to 95k around and then fast rocket!

Bitcoin has already gotten to hundred thousand, I think the expectation of people is not about Bitcoin hitting 100k only, the expectation of people is for bitcoin to reach 150k before we reach December time, so for me I know very well that the price of bitcoin do increase when people never expected it, but for the price to clamped to 100k, I know that it will clamp more than 100 when people invest in bitcoin and if we have more adoption from companies in bitcoin

The mindset and expectations of most Bitcoin investors have changed lately and in deed 100k is such a small amount and target for them right now, most people are speculating Bitcoin to touch around 150k to 200k in the very season and the current market outlook pursue that direction, although Bitcoin is still at around between 100k-105k but currently with in the last 24  hours chart record a high or around 104k+ but 48 hours chart saw 105k+ high, so my guess is as good as right.

$150K before the end of the year? Honestly, that feels like a very conservative prediction.  If this year turns out to be full-on bullish, I’m expecting more, maybe even $200K.

We’re not in the early stages anymore, so those x10 dreams are kinda out the window… But a solid 100% gain in a year? Now that’s realistic.  

And I’d be happy with that kind of ride  already.

It is true that the bitcoin market cannot be predicted, but rather speculations could give a guide on the direction it is heading for the time being but however, but that does not mean we should lose focus on our target while trading, patience, and faith plays a good role to help sustain our curiosity to thrive for the best. Hopefully, we expect Bitcoin to pump more than that amount before the month comes to an end.

$200K is very possible in this year, when Bitcoin starts pumping, Bitcoin moves very fast, 100% return is still realistic this year, just like in the past Bitcoin achieved $100K faster than everyone expected, similarly Bitcoin can cross $200K in the future beyond everyone's expectations. So always keep a positive attitude and keep holding on.

And this year I am very optimistic that Bitcoin will cross $200K before the end of the year.

You know in bitcoin predictions nobody is sure, and we can only depend on what is happening not what we believe on, because the price of bitcoin is rotational, so my predictions is considerable and if bitcoin skyrocket in price, I know definitely that the price will hit hundreds and fifty, looking at Bitcoin price hitting a 200k before end of this year, is a higher predictions, so I believe that the price is something that can change at anytime if I'm not mistaken.
