Hello guys, I been holding crypto currency for many years now because I so one of many enthusiast person on crypto currency particularly on bitcoin. From its low to its highest price. But now how I see it in the charts the price is to low, Its hit 7665$ from 20000$. Why?? What Happen??

If you buy it at 20000$ for sure its a  big upset on you side because you loss more that 50% of your capital.

That is why even if Bitcoin Price is to low today many investor's are afraid to buy because bitcoin myth go down more and
the loss moeny.

I know there is a lot of  expert traders out there

Can you  Make an Advice When I should Buy Bitcoin?

In what price bitcoin price heading now, thus it goes down? or up?

And how much money should I invest on it?

You said that you've been an holder for so many years and now you don't know what happens? I'm sure that you have an idea on what's really happening.
After this green market, when it goes down again. Buy.
No one knows if it will go down further or will recover soon.
Invest only what you afford to lose.

Those who have bought bitcoin around $20000 is already gone. They already good burned as early as January-February so I guess they have exited already. And the rest who have bought at that top price who are still holding will slowly offload as well because they thought that its going to bounce back, sadly that is not the case. I guess you have heard about the Mt. Gox trustee secretly offloading shit tons of bitcoin from December up to the first week of March, that put a lot of strain in the market that's why its seems we can't really take off, heck even $12000 is really hard to get. And then there's a lot of FUD (as usual), and then governments and banks, anti bitcoin stance. I'm no expert in predicting where the price is heading, but if you are going to look at bitcoins previous record, its only proven that it has the ability to bounce back. As far as how much money you should invest, I don't think that anyone can answer that. I guess its really up to you, how much money are you willing to risk?

All the game between whales.Most of panic sellers support to whales for buying more BTC in cheap rate.Whales are always with BTC and USDT :D

You should invest only the money that you can afford or much better if you will only invest money that is your spare. Don't try to take risk if you are unsure of what you are doing. There are people that already took their decision and decided to put their life savings to bitcoin. I'm not against with it but in your case since you don't know much so far, still DYOR.

now its playground for whales , they push price up/down  to profit , thats all

IMHO just hold you coins , dont be fooled ,  BTC will shoot sooner or later

When the price was 20,000$ there was a high spam on the Bitcoin network, making only a few bought Bitquin at that price.
Bitcoin is highly volatile so no one will be able to give you a real price for this coin.
If you keep bitcoin as an investment, it is best to follow the rules below:

• Do not invest recklessly just keeping the bitcoin up to high value (100,000$)
• Never invest more than you lose

"only a few bought bitcoin at that price"
I tend to disagree, as the volumes at the level of 16000$ was huge compared to now, and not only that, the price stayed like that for 2-3 weeks, with all the hype going, there was a massive trading volume in bitcoin pairs, so it's not really hard to find someone who purchased his bitcoin for more then 18000$.

No one will be able to set you the price of the coin, that's right, but the market decides what's the price of something, unlike stocks where the company earnings is one of the only parameters that affect the market.

Bitcoin passing through a dumping journey now. What a low price is Bitcoin! Beginning of year Bitcoin price was about $16000 but now Bitcoin price reducing half of total amount. The main case of reducing Bitcoin is holding.

You’re a great holder so you should know this thing and make no panic. The price drops so hard but I still believe that buying bitcoin is worth it, its a matter of time and we will see bitcoin $20k level again or beyond. Only buy the money you afford to lose, so no regrets in the future.

The main reason for the value down is the investors panic and selling their bitcoin quickly, first of all a investor need more patience and more trust and hope with his investment it is the best way to get more profits.

There is no panic selling now bro. I see many people invested on bitcoin and earning more bitcoin with the fiat cash. Reason for this price fluctuations is MT gox he sold more money to settle his all the pending amount he need to payment.
He made the transaction over 400 billion worth of bitcoins in the normal exchanges.
This is the reason we find the great fall on all the crypto currencies. Still there are big possible to find the 20K USD change in 2 months.

two months is a very long time to see the price growth ,, but what can make this happen ,, has been mixed more than two months bitcoin prices continue to fall ,, as if hope is thinning for us find opportunities to crawl back up ,, bitcoin indeed very difficult to guess the movement

The main reason for Bitcoin price dip is the sale of 30k Bitcoin by MtGox trustee, they also sold 30k Bitcoin Cash.
To add something more I would like to say that there was panic sale also along with MtGox sale.

Another thing could be that Tether sold a huge amount and they have also created tons of Tether behind the scene, crypto space didn't know about it.
It may be totally a rumor, I heard somewhere and I can't prove it. Even I forgot from where I heard about it and it's approx a two month old story.

MtGox still hodls a lot of bitcoins, so they may sell more if the court orders them to do so.

Just stay positive, the price will rise again. It's normal for peoples to cash out.

Huge drop = Huge sale
Huge peak = Huge buy < hopefully it will start soon because bitcoin price is cheap now in my opinion.

BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY-BUY

LOL ::) ::) ::)
sold @$15,500 wish  I would have sold sooner ::) ::) ::)

A lot of things have really happened in the past few weeks that have shaken the markets notably SEC issuing some new regulations concerning cryptocurrency exchanges,Mt. Gox selling off bitcoins to pay users,binance's hack,governments around the world taking negative stances on cryptocurrencies etc.These have continually shaken the markets and so that's why we aren't seeing any stability for now.

          The only  thing that always affect the bitcoin price going down and up is base on the law of demand and supply. And the panic selling of bitcoins now also affect the market because the supply continuesly flowing while the demand is not enough. Still, ups and down is normal in the market so, i think there is nothing to worry about.

I think the bitcoin revolution is closing slowly because bitcoin technology is old.. OK I agree. Satoshi Nakamoto, The man is a genius.. but there are some errors in the code, and they can not be fixed.  I think that the kingdom of crypto will get another coin. Of course this is an idea.

Yeah this is just an idea, I know bitcoin can survive this thing. Its falling, it hurts to see bitcoin on this level again but hopefully this is just in short term. Let’s keep on supporting this kind of technology so it will still exist in the future.

Just have faith and patience.. Bitcoin will surely rise again in its time. What I've noticed whenever there is a certain event bitcoin value rises.. That's why just to keeps sake my profits I alwats takes my profits whenever it will be doubles and half of my profits will go for trading then the rest for holding in case it gos back up I take another. For example...

Capital is 200$
Whenever it reaches 400$+ I take my 200$. 200$+ reamains so I divide it to halves one for trading and the other half dor holding.  So on the next peak on bitcoin those in my hold will then increase wait for 400$+ then take another 200$ and so on.

Some people say maybe a situation like this is a big player game that keeps controlling bitcoin prices steadily downhill and I think for a situation like this, it would not be good if you throw it away. I do not think you should be too panicked to make a sale on your BTC asset and you'd better keep holding because based on the fact that there is now a game there, I'm sure there will be a pump on bitcoin.

It's not really the same, Bitcoin's price which grew a lot was that it was just the people's sayings and much more to buy.It's not real price actually, When we analyze technical, the real value of the market is 5000 or below and 3000, I believe the market will go up again, I am a technical analyst,I did many analytics by technical

In the past, bitcoin has seen a bigger rise in every downturn, but this time it is different. The issue of bitcoin futures means that betting against bitcoin also has an opportunity to make money. On the other hand, some governments have introduced policies to regulate bitcoin, which has lowered its price.
But I believe bitcoin will not die, as long as we hold our own currency, we will not lose money.

It's not that they are afraid of going down more but they want to buy during the lowest price that's why wise traders doesn't simply buy during bearish market because the timing should be balance since even prices are cheap compared to last month it could even go down more which is a win situation for those investors.

Yes a small sample you have to buy at a price that will go down, you have to analyze which coins will be purchased and allow immediately up, the most important adjustments with a budget large enough to be able to get bigger profits too this most do most traders.

many factors that makes bitcoin price is down the biggest issues about google will disable all ads about bitcoin, its mean that no ads about bitcoin in the future and i think it will make bitcoin price is down because if there are no ads, new people in online wolrd dont know about bitcoin thats make bitcoin in market will have big stock and low demand

Its a normal process let it happen. And there should be no panic. I can'treally say what caused it probably a lot of people are panicing and selling off which is whatbis affecting the market. In this period, I will personally advice people to buy more if they have the money and HODL on to their coins.when next the price Pumps, it will steadily move to the predicted price.

It's crypto's nature. The reasons behind this dump are,  Dt.Gox is selling out tons of bitcoins and thi5s is the reason  behind such drop.  Once this is over there is a chance for slight growth in bitcoin value along with other crypto currencies. By June mid or July beginning the value would  boom.

It would be better if the price went up. because all altcoins are affected by bitcoin. but did you notice anything in the last few months? 
bitcoin is rising, altcoins are falling.
bitcoin is rising, altcoins are falling again..
The market is in trouble...

Last year also we faced the same situation about the altcoin when ever Bitcoin price is kept increasing almost all altcoin price kept decreasing. But don't worry we have already seen there is exceptional growth in altcoin once Bitcoin price is reaching more than 14000$.

But there is hope that bitcoin will increase soon and everything will be ok but it takes some time, but any body tell me about BCH and ETH now its prices will down or up ?

I think it is because of all bad news or false news rising today.
All those bad news are now affecting the mind of some investors especialy those investors who are weak and wiling to sell their bitcoin just to earn profit even though it is small, because they are afraid. This mindset is wrong, we have to be positive and have trust in bitcoin.

does this have anything to do with twitter that will block cryptocurrency, sorry for noob question

South Korea with the bill prohibiting Bitcoin. The direct cause of Bitcoin's "shock" is the measures taken to stop the Bitcoin boom of the Korean government and the bitter future of Bitcoin. Even yesterday, the whole world of virtual currency shocked when Korea will prohibit the door trading modes Bitcoin.
Not only Korea, the Chinese government continues to implement measures to ban digital money transactions, tighter control of online platforms and mobile applications for this transaction.
This may be the reason for bitcoin prices going down.

I think Bitcoin go down because lately so many negative news about Bitcoin. And issue news binance have been Hacked. because of this incident many people are worried about the future of bitcoin.

Bitcoin's price depends on its supply and demand which is affected by different factors. Buying bitcoin is always best when its price is low, but the question is when? Then try to look on the price chart history to get an idea. When buying or investing, always buy on the amount that you think you can afford to lose so you wont regret at the end. Investing on something is always accompanied by risk, so be very careful.

For someone who has been holding crypto for many years you should know that price isn't low, price is low only for those who invested at high levels  ;)
Losing more than half investment usually(always ?) is.  ::)
No. There will always be new investors, it is just people are more careful at the moment.
On dip. Buy it few days after FUD starts. Someone is spreading FUD for a reason, everyone want cheaper bitcoins, FUD can be good indicator when to buy.
Good news can be good indicator that time to sell has come  ;)
No one knows that
Million dollars.
Dude, if you don't want to risk then invest only what you can afford to lose.

One of the reason also why Bitcoin price going down because many people get panic and the afraid to lost their investment and this is to spreading negativity about bitcoin. So they sell their bitcoin to avoid any risk.

Yes the fake rumours and fake news will affect the growth of bitcoin and other crypto currencies so the people who are invested in bitcoin will panic and get back from investing this is the main reason for the loss and the fall of bitcoin.

Yes we can do a lot of things in this regard if we will post and tweet about bitcoin acceptance than for sure they will accept bitcoin again, but if we will not take any notice and will say that we cannot do anything then sure it will not work out, we should struggle for bitcoin to make it unban at any cost, at this time nothing is better than bitcoin for us so be hopped we can do anything to let our bitcoin breath forever, sitting idle and waiting to make it unban by itself is in vain.

People who really use BTC and know what a special thing it is. For you, BTC is the Internet 2.0, and you will find that the BTC will change all that. Don't be frustrated by the current slide.

The rich see a drop in investment value, buy at a lower price, and sell at a higher price when they rebound. The poor buy, panic and sell low.

So we have to hold our own currency, not panic selling.

Best answers, for the common questions.

Thanks you for your advice, it is what I should tell me everyday, buy at low price, invest what you afford to lose.

Bitcoin price down is caused by several factors:
1. Due to google and facebook / other social media prohibits crypto to be marketed on their site
2. Many countries forbid the use of Bitcoin to transact
3. every year Bitcoin prices fall, and will rise again in the range of the month to 8-12

You never know for sure what's the reason of red market, media lies, it may be some manipulations between large investors, or some exchanges hacking, new regulations and SEC requirements, etc. Invest now, when BTC is about 7,000 USD, I don't think it will go any lower. Or invest a part of your money now, and then see how the situation goes and do more a few months later. The amount is up to you, just don't invest money that you might need for life so you won't have to sell when it's not profitable.

The reason behind the downfall in the market value of the bitcoin is very much obvious and that is the demand of the bitcoin in the international market is dropping down and because of which the market value is also decreasing. In addition to this, the panic selling which is being done by some many investors is also resulting in the downfall in the market value of the bitcoin but things will get better soon.

I think you have experience in bitcoin, so you do not panic with the price dropped dramatically when This, I myself still believe if we buy bitcoin now we will get big profits in the future, for a big investment is very suitable buy bitcoin now

If I may add, There is a uncertainty regarding the outcome of the G20 meeting, and before the actual meeting, bitcoin fall at the bottom for the second time around last Sunday from $7800->$7500. And then a lot of analyst think that it can go as low as $2500, however, the G20 thing really brought something positive to the market that's why the bleeding has stopped and now we are just above $9000. But just like we have preaching all along, everyone should take advantage of the market situation to make money. If you have bought at the last bottom of $7500, I'm sure that you will be happy at the current price. And if ever the price will fall again, I'm sure that it will be another test, just remain calm.


That's why I'm trying to point at you guys specially those newbies out there. You have to look at the bright side and not be despair if the price is dipping. Take advantage of the situation, purchase bitcoin when its very cheap and then HODL. Rinse and Repeat.

High and variable are normal on the trading floor. If you invest without tracking then the loss is obvious. Not only bitcoin, when the world changes, it changes. Be careful in business

The market drops due to some bothering fud dropped by the Google and Mt.Gox issue, and this said fuds drive out the people and activate their panic mindset that's  why we see the fall turn bad. But now we really see that bitcoins getting back to its rhythm and provably we will see it gaining its original track again.

Supply and demand
Market manipulation
Buyer fatigue
Bad news
People taking profit

Rumours made by social media.... About ban....

Panic selling and few other influential factors have resulted din this much downfall in the market value of the bitcoin but there is nothing to be worried about as the market has started recovering in much better way and that the market value of most of the crypto coins including bitcoin is getting better day by day and that we need to show up little more patience to make a better earning.

You are not a newbie in crypto world so you probably know that when the price is in dips its the right time to buy.

We cant certainly predict the future value of btc but we are aware that the prices are so volatile and driven by the market demand hence if there are many users buying we can expect the value to rise.

This is totally depends on how much you can afford to invest and willing to risk without any guarantee of money back. You already have experience since you are a hodler for years I dont understand why you're still asking this basic question.

Just game of whales  ;) hold at good price and you'll be fine

not many people are willing to buy bitcoins above $ 20,000. in general the holder buys at a time when the price is cheap and hold it until the price is much more expensive. I think you are looking like a man who is in a hurry to get a lot of profits, if you want to be, you should be able to save some of your money in altcoin. so you can do Robbing someone to pay someone while waiting for bitcoin price move on to a higher level. for me the bitcoin is special for people who have strong hands, so they can hold it longer until the price explodes in long-term investments.

This latest rocky patch for bitcoin is thought to have been triggered by rumours that the Tether cryptocurrency has been artificially raising its value.  Owned by trading company Bitfinex, Tether has been criticised by financial bloggers who claim it has been plucked from thin air to boost the value of bitcoin.

Just few of the possible reason "why the price of Bitcoin goes down?"
1.) issues on Black chain, scammer, Ban of some opposing country vs Bitcoin.
2.) issues on Monetary Regulation
3.) global adaptation on Crypto Currencies
4.) market reaction by traders on Bitcoin
all this things affect the market and the trading on Bitcoin, resulting to the up and down on the Bitcoin price.
Some businessman who are into the TRADING apply the principle " Sell high and Buy low" still up to you How much money are you willing to invest in the near future for Bitcoin, i suggest you continue monitoring the market then decide when to invest and sell your Bitcoin. good luck...

I agree with the above quotes. Learning these things will help you and guide you completely regarding how to invest more in bitcoin. Indeed invest only on what you afford to lose for this is the wisest thing to do. Since we don’t know if it will go down.

I'm not against with invest what you can afford to lose since this one is the most needed mindset for us to brought since there are some certain investments that cannot deliever us some honest profit due to some certain circumstances. But interms of bitcoins well maybe I will evade to execute the invest what you can afford thing since Bitcoins is meant to be hold for long time since the development and adoption is nonstop and we can earn more with it if our patience is so long for waiting to see its new ATH per year to pass.

I think bitcoin investors sold their bitcoins, of course they earn big profit and followed by the panic sellers that is why bitcoin huge dump. Maybe you should buy bitcoin this time I believe it will hit back to $20,000 who knows bitcoin can make miracle.

Yeah price of bitcoin is totally unpredictable as sometime it get high and sometime it get down, so if in market you see bitcoin at demand then invest in bitcoin and hold it for your future. Bitcoin rise and fall is the part of investment so people invest after fining market down and price low but they sell when the find market turned fully green so they can earn high profit, I have never seen bitcoin down forever, so if today it is down it is just for the short time, for temporary time period, wait soon bitcoin market will rise very high unexpectedly.

There is no way to say or understand why Bitcoin prices have dropped so much.I have always been seeing that the price of Bitcoin is constantly increasing.But since 2018 nobody is able to understand why Bitcoin is losing its price.Price is going down in this year. So everyone is getting frustrated.

you are right.  I wish I could go back to last year. . I hope the  14,000 usd,  will come back to the levels.
 I wish Altcoin market to rise..
Most altcoin,  does not deserve low prices.

i hope would is like you said. There are many people, new entry into the crypto realm, but always in sales on whales. and Mt Gox Trustee Sells $400 Million in Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash. This makes me a little worried..  If the market improves a little, we'll all relax. :)

only people who panic can say that the recent bitcoin price cuts are frustrating. in this year bitcoin has not lost its price but there is still a market price correction because of the many conversations in the media about the cryptocurrency ban, but in the near future yesterday about the G20 meeting made a positive impact on users of cryptocurrency because bitcoin able to overcome the world economic problems but did not recognize that bitcoin has properties global currency, but bitcoin is recognized as an investment asset. it certainly can give the spirit back to investors who feel in doubt.

rising and falling bitcoin prices is a natural thing in the existing exchange market, not even just the type of digital currency bitcoin alone its value is able to change, other stock markets are similarly experiencing the same thing, because in currency trading, the decline and rise in prices is a natural thing because there is a lot of activity of people who do buying and selling.
believe that from the popularity of bitcoin will bring a positive impact its value will increase if we can make as a form of long-term investment.

Bitcoin price is unpredictable. Sometimes go up and sometimes go down. It can be influenced of so many factor. Fundamental news, market maker and other. If you are holder for so many years , I think you knew already when the best time to buy btc and when the time to sell btc. Use btc as investment is good I though.

why is the price of bitcoin decreasing because of the bitcoin investors when little investors bitcoin expect us to really beat it for me because it's not always always a high price btc so for me The price of btc is naturally low.

In my respect, i believe it is normal to go downwards as long as there is some uncertainty about cryptos regarding the goverment laws that may be implemented in some countries.
Maybe the price is going down but people's awareness goes up and this will make bitcoin go to the top again!

Once uncertainty on Bitcoin and alternative currencies are cleared up on the regulation, tax, and ICO. We will be in a much better place than at the moment. People are frustrating with profit takers and panic sell also contribute to the recent bitcoin price cuts. Just wait it out if you can.

your question how much should I invest? answer how much your money is and how sure you invest your money. if you can afford to buy in large quantities then maybe you will be the next whale. and in better purchases in the price of 7000 $, this seems like a suitable price for being a whale.

Panic selling and profit s takers are those which add more pressure to the falling bitcoin price. Negative news is the first thing that brings crash in the market and second is the panic sellers which add more pressure to other investors to start selling as no body would like to make loss on their investment.

as for the amount you should invest i can't give you an exact amount but rather how much you can afford to invest without sacrificing your daily needs and future security for yourself in short don't invest all your savings into it.
Right now if the market trend is right that this one is a bearish market, you can wait for another drop in price like below 6k and 5k but if you think the support at 9k is enough buy right now because it will soon pump and start a bullish run.

every businness that we have thier a certain coming the prices become unstable so we dont expect that the price of bitcoin is always in higher...we should invest money that we can afford that is we spare....Don't try to take risk if you are unsure of what you are doing. There are people that already took their decision and decided to put their life savings to bitcoin. I'm not against with it but in your case since you don't know much so far...

But when those people who are frustrated with these people who took profit started to take their own profit, you'll never any single complain to them.

All they want to do is keep on taking profits without even thinking that in every move they do there's a definite opposite reaction that happens.

Price goes down with the impact from panic sellers + fake news + lesser demand.

this happens because there is so much negative news about bitcoin, which causes bitcoin prices to drop. some time ago I once read an article that facebook and google will ban ads cryptocurrency. Maybe this could also be one cause of falling bitcoin prices.

You should buy when you have money and when bitcoin isn't that high and this time bitcoin is perfect for buying.
This question is hard to answer for someone that isn't familiar yet with the market. As a holder and investor of course I'll say that bitcoin's price is heading up but not for now.
Invest only what you afford to lose.

So basically right now we are in a spiral of falling down due to people using BTC for gains and not for the true sense of what it was created for. People buy, hold and as soon as they see a good price they either sell or as soon as they see a dip they sell due to panic. This is a very volatile industry crypto is not for the faint of heart, where there is tons of money to make there is also tons of money to loose.

I read this thread and could not contain myself and I decided to comment


How the hell will someone know that? People may make assumptions about the possible causes of price falls, but it will not be a 100% correct answer


This is a risk that we are exposed to, but if you do not sell in the panic and you hold it for a few years, you will not have any losses. The secret of the crypto world is in keeping calm and hold for a long time and when I talk of a long time I am talking about hold for at least a year. if you buy some bitcoin or altcoin? you should hold for a year if you want to make a profit


if you buy bitcoin and expect that you will get quick profit? then you will be another person who will be in the social networks complaining about the fall of the price



just buy when it's in red and hold for more than a year. same day trade is very risky if you do with bitcoin and altcoins.


nobody knows that

I agree with most, but the red part...I think there are people who can and do suppress BTC (and crypto in general) as they see it as threat to their fiat system.
They could probably outright ban it, but that can often backfire...its much better for them to frustrate ordinary people through keeping price down, and people
that panic sell are their best help...and it seems to me that timing correlate with BTC entering futures market...that seems like great tool to keep price down

I think crypto is a money game now and it's a tool for rich man. They've controlling market and do anything they want.

And finance is a cricle: down, up, down, up,...every year. :).

There are games of crypto whales. There are institutional investors, who use bitcoin futures, there is MTGOX case and so on. You know there are a lot of different factors which affect on the price. In my opinion you shoul have your own investment strategy and follow it.

Apart from the rich people who has the funds to regulate crypto market any time they wish, Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency is facing many challenges this days such as, Facebook, Twitter and Google planning to ban cryptocurrency adds which makes many top investors stop to invest on cryptocurrency now simply because they are watching what will happen next. Also many countries are accepting cryptocurrency why some are banning it, I believe those are some of the cause of instability of Bitcoin and Altcoins.

Because many countries have not accepted Bitcoin yet
It grows unstable, not a rule at all.
To control it, governments banned or restricted the Crypto market
But now there are so many countries that have legalize Crypto to collect taxes.
I believe this market is expanding in the future. Do not just look at Bitcoin or ETH but look at Blockchain technology for humans. ;D

Before investing of your money into any of the digital currency, the first thing which you need to do is that you need to study the behavior of the crypto currencies and especially regarding the volatility of the crypto currencies.

All the crypto currencies are extremely volatile and that their market values keep on fluctuating most of the time. So you just need to be patient at such times to avoid any mishap.

One main fact I will always like to point out is that we cannot rule out the idea of gain which is why the market is the way it is today. People are getting greedy, speculations, FOMO and FUD everywhere and when we combine all these, we always only end up having a speculative asset on our hands and nothing else.

Maybe and just maybe until we start seeing the usage part as a currency popping up, people's idea will start changing, but until then, we just have to deal with what is at hand.

I only agree your 3rd reason: Bitcoin is usually dip in the first months of year and it will pump from 8th - 12th month of year.

Google and Facebook / other social media ban all cryptocurrency-related advertising but i think this will better for the crypto market because now have too much scam ICOs which always take advantage advertising in social network to attractive investors who no have much experience and it's doing bad image of the Crypto market.

Your 2nd reason also isn't right because having many countries accepted Bitcoin and cryptocurrency at the moment.

Today, the price of bitcoin is $ 7,421.03 (a 5.81% reduction). It is time for the cryptocurrency market to stabilize in price and assert itself. After this time I believe that not only the bitcoin but other coin altcoins in the cryptocurrency market will also turn to green graph lines and further develop.

You should invest to Cybermiles(CMT) at this time, tomorrow they will hold Testnet event to introduce about Travis - their testnet code name. If this event success, alot of people will use it and the price of CMT will go down next time.
This is really a good chance to get profit.
Try to use Travis to know about hoe to apply blockchain for E-commerce

Hopefully the market will stabilize now, and hope that bitcoin will stay at the level of $7k. We know that most of the altcoins are also dump so we should be more patience this time because the only option for me is to hold or buy more which is good in long term.

I think now many people get shocked to see bitcoin price is down for more and I see the price reaches $68 in poloniex. and from the last night, the price is getting dump too hard and this makes altcoin following to get down too although there is a coin that still tries to increase. I hope its just another correction and maybe after this, the price will bounce up and make a new high price again. but if the price is getting down again, many people will get sad and makes a fast selling because they just panic to see the price.

This topic has been discussed several times in this forum. I will still repeat the same thing I’ve been saying to others that ask same question and that is– investors took a break. There are times when you take a break, you don’t continue working forever, do you? Nope you don’t, there are times you decide to take a break and also use the opportunity to do other things and watch how things are going before getting back to work. Just be patient, the market will get better soon.

BTC has no real business behind it.
That makes it volatile.
Still consider it buy low situation.

there are many reason why bitcoin goin down,
among them is below.

bad news - circulation of the news is greatly affect the price of the coin. negative news create FUD thus resulting into downfall of market price.

what I know is a lot of negative news about bitcoin so bitcoin prices continue to decline, but in the next few months, bitcoin prices will grow back ..
so now we have to think positive that bitcoin will grow again ..

I am actually thankful that Facebook, Google and other big social platforms are banning crypto ads since the main reason is that most of which are scams and phishing links. On the other hand, there is bad news after bad news for Bitcoin which also affects the entire crypto market.  I'm fearing the worst is yet to come.

The price of bitcoin presently is alarming cos its going down day by day and many investors are withdrawing their money out .bitcoin prices can either go up or down again nobody knows but the best thing if you want to invest in bitcoin,invest little not much of your access so that if it goes up you will gain and even if it fells dowm you wont lose much.

buy bitcoin right now, if the price goes up you sell it!

Since the beginning of 2018. Price of bitcoin is going down which to me is no wonder considering the fact that there's no govt. control over the transactions which is a huge danger for every country.
put yourself in the government shoes and then see for yourself how dangerous bitcoin or such virtual currency can be when It's about the national security and safeguarding of a country and its resources.

I mean whatever is happening is the eventual outcome of whatever has been envisaged before. no wonder price will rise when bitcoin will get governments approval. especially the US and EU.

It is due to some  reasons why bitcoin price is down. 
Fake news- this will only create panic to holders
Mt.gox selling of 7000 btc to drop the price of bitcoin.

I think today, many people become panic because the price still going down too deep and reaches $6k but fortunately, the price in a few hours ago is increasing until $7k but now its down again to $6k. besides that, I think maybe there is any fake news in out there that makes people think that bitcoin will down at some level of price. I think the price will up and down in the $6xxx-$7xxx so we can use it to make a profit from bitcoin.

They already good burned as early as January-February so I guess they have exited already. And the rest who have bought at that top price who are still holding will slowly offload as well because they thought that its going to bounce back, sadly that is not the case. I guess you have heard about trustee secretly offloading of bitcoin from December up to the first week of March, that put a lot of strain in the market that's why its seems we can't really take off, heck even really hard to get. And then there's a lot of FUD and then governments and banks, anti bitcoin stance. I'm no expert in predicting where the price is heading, but if you are going to look at bitcoins previous record, its only proven that it has the ability to bounce back. As far as how much money you should invest, I don't think that anyone can answer that. I guess its really up to you, how much money are you willing to risk...

There might be a huge number of people who are on panic right now and the good thing is we can actually make money because of the ups and down of bitcoin. Its a total crash of all cryptocurrency, I hope this will not last for years, 2nd quarter of 2018 will be the time for cryptocurrency to bounce.

Yes, you’re really hitting a point here man. I believe that the main reason we’re always seeing all these downfalls are because of people selfishness and greediness. Nobody wants to do something that will benefit the community and help us on the long run, everyone just wants to achieve their own selfish goals. The price is so volatile due to this, it goes up and falls down heavily.

When money is involved, people chase their own goals, work out their own hidden agenda motives, etc. It's something that happens in each and every market, and will not spare Bitcoin's market. This isn't the main reason this market is going up and down heavily. It's a combination of ignorance, free market aspect (ie, lack of rules), immature market, low availability of liquidity, etc. But overall, we just have to admit and accept the fact that the majority of the people are here only to make profit, which isn't all that bad considering more people investing in Bitcoin lowers the availability of on-market coins in the long term, and that's beneficial for the market. Just look at the charts, if you ignore the wild up and down swings, the price has been going up the entire time. People tend to worry about the volatility being a harming factor, but the long term picture clearly doesn't agree with that. ;)

n some ways, bitcoin is a victim of its success. When more and more merchants boarded the ship, they increased the selling pressure of bitcoin. And when merchants sell almost all of their bitcoins to the market, the seller's market exceeds the buyer's market. Bitcoin attracts businesses to sell bitcoins.


If merchants accept bitcoins and pay them to employees, the ecosystem and price of the currency will be strengthened. Paying employees in bitcoins may happen in the future, although this is very rare in the present. Yet businesses are eager to accept bitcoin as another sign of its enduring strength and market demand.

Please go up i cant live here omg deep

Panic selling is a disease. Market has lost of it's control because of this. Are this can be manipulated? Maybe yes/not
I have seen some group about pump/dump crypto coins, they has contributed about chaos in the market. I will not blame about that, but for some people who really interesting for long invest of Bitcoin, they was being upset and getting leave negative feedback about this to other people.

i heard ahwa someone has sold 9000 btc and caused its value down but i forgot where i find that news and i also know that g-20 news also cause bitcoin value down

Can you provide Sir some links or proof if this is true, I merit you if you provide those things for sure. Anyway, it sad at this time for having a low value again, but it's okay. Most of us knew that the bitcoin can survive again, like in our country, they use bitcoin in so many things like paying bills and etc.

Crypto is suffering from government regulations as such it is affecting stability of bitcoin and other alt coins

Basically it is a sensitive game. If you don’t play it with care, concern, high controlled mind and determination, and patience you will never be getting any good news from here.

People are continuously investing their money and time in bitcoins but these coins only favor a person who have strong controlling skills. His mind must be under controlled and especially when prices are going down.

For sure growth of bitcoin is certain now, it is very bad to sell your bitcoin at panic price, people should have patience after buying bitcoin, holding will decrease the price falling in market, it’s sad to sell someone selling that much bitcoin at time to gaining, now again bitcoin market has started to make profit then I would suggest you to hold and do not panic at any cost, people sell high amount of bitcoin at the same time which makes the market a bit low but it is just temporary fall, don’t make any decision for selling at that time, so it will save your bitcoin form panic.

No matter how low the price of Bitcoin gets, I will never be worried about it. Yes I do invest my money into Bitcoin, but I’m not part of these people who are crazy about Hodling and being lazy, and I’m also not relying on Bitcoin to make money, I already have other means of making money which are far much better. Whenever I invest on Bitcoin I don’t do it because I want to HODL and steal out once the price is high. No, I have my plans whenever I’m investing and I never mind the price rate when I decide to invest. I buy at any rate and it never bothers me.

There are so many reasons because of which the market value of the bitcoin is dropping down and that this is making the investors a little more worried and that few of the investors are also selling their coins because of getting panicked.

However, this market will soon recover and that good days are still yet to come and that you need not to be worried about anything and that you need to keep hoping for the best.

For me because of so much demand in bitcoin last year, the value of it were extremely rose. When supply meets the demad or the supply is much higher than the demand, its value decreases.

There are so many reasons because of which the market value of the bitcoin is dropping down.Fake news is the main reason.No matter how low the price of Bitcoin gets, I will never be worried about it.This market will soon recover.

Well, let them panic sell, they will always come back around anyway when the market is back and running with a lot of people joining into fomo most of the time, since that is what they know how to do best. We cannot always have it all in the market, and whether we like it or not, we will always experience these moments once in a while, but the good thing about it all is that, it always recover and that is one thing to always look forward to for those who believe in what they are holding.

Panic sellers will always be in a market where everything is speculative and a lot of people are busy getting greedy and looking for a quick way to make money which is why I believe it is something we cannot even outrule until we start seeing real life usage of bitcoin as a currency. Those who understand that what they are holding basically will change a lot of things in the future; will know why they should be holding it.

Bitcoin price going down because some social media play negative role about bitcoin.some false news create panic.I think fake news is the high reason of bitcoin price down.but I hope its recover soon.

Wondering why they panic so much? maybe if they don't have enough knowledge in bitcoin , but if you knew the ability of bitcoin, you will never make a panic decision that may lead you in a wrong withdrawal of your asset and other alternative coins. We need to spread a positive and legit news about bitcoin and how high it's survivability in every situation, just to lessen the damage and to delete the bad image of bitcoin from the fake news.

Simply put, we cannot just always expect one directional movement every time. The way the market has always been, it is either we are in a downtrend today or in the next few days we are back in an uptrend. That is what generally makes a market and for those who are always losing hope because they bought at the top, they should either take it as a best option to always buy more at the bottom, because a market can never remain the same way most of the time and recovery is always good.

Bitcoin is still going down because there are still many people selling their bitcoin to recover their capital because they are afraid of the circulating bad news that it will end to zero value.

I think there are currently some factors that make bitcoin prices down and indeed almost all cryptocurrency has decreased significantly.
The current phenomenon makes many people frustrated and panicked to sell their bitcoins so it is clear that large-scale sales will affect the value of bitcoin.
If you believe that bitcoin is a crypto that has a good future, then what's wrong if you wait and be patient to not sell it now, we together should increase its value again, in order to get good results when it later sells.

I have read an Article at ThecCrunch where they stated the reason of recent bitcoin crash is because of Bitfinex and Tether issues, and because Facebook announced to ban ICO and crypto ads.. i think it might be the right reason of recent bitcoin crash .


See Full Article;https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/01/why-is-bitcoins-price-down/

I can not say anything, because according to your argument seems to have very experienced in this case. but for me to see about the market movement, I can conclude that the current market downturn is caused by bitcoin users, and they have made a mistake, having switched their investment to other coins.

That is even a question that is totally dependent on one's pocket. Not everyone can afford to buy a single bitcoin, so in as much as what you are buying is affordable, you can always go ahead. This is the kind of moment where anyone should even be considering to buy bitcoin since the value is a lot low and the fact that you can end up having a good time ahead when the market recovers should be enough to life one's spirit.

One prime reason we need to understand is, after big growth happened in last year, people who have invested in 2015, 2016 and in early months of 2017, might have started to book their profits which eventually led the prices to down from ~$20k levels.

i think one of the reason why the value of bitcoin bro is still going down it is because the negative feedback's and news about cryptocurrency specially bitcoin, some said the security is not that secure and the holder's are prone to hackers, maybe that's the reason why other investor's are still afraid on investing to it. IMO  

The reason why Bitcoin falls is because its intrinsic value is lower than it’s actual price. In each case, the value of the assets were much lower than the market price. Then the prices adjusted once people realized they were over-paying. We may see the odd bounce on BitCoin if there is a perceived temporary scarcity, but in the end, it is worthless.

Absolutely it will rise because we all know that its market is notoriously volatile, it keeps fluctuating currently, thus there is no downward forever. Yep, recently the bad news about bitcoin updating regularly. With this crutch time of bitcoin and also anothers coin, we should be not panic too much and let it be because no one can touch it to change its fate. All we need to do right now is to keep holding and waiting till the price can get recovered, everything will be alright if you think in positive way, let trust in bitcoin.

I think youre correct of what you said sir ,  you should check again and again before you invest and dont invest more than you lose ... Its more of a gambling type game , its really risky but if you ever hit the jackpot then dont put all your winnings on another steak ...

You can never go wrong with bitcoin, with all the battle being waged against it,it is still standing at over $7000,but in every investment, the best advice I can give is that you should only invest what you can afford to lose because anything van happen.

there are too many negative news in out there and they are not responsible for this situations and they keep saying that bitcoin will fall too deep without any chance to increase back. and this is attracting people to be panic and they come to the market and see that the price is fallen day by day so they think that bitcoin won't survive but the truth is bitcoin will still survive and bitcoin price will recover soon. just keep your faith in bitcoin and still believe that everything will normal again.

I think that is the natural process needed to create a balance of nature in the crypto market. Volatility is the result of simplification and elasticity. It is certainly a characteristic of maintaining and developing in the trend of increasing interest from the international community.:P

Things are not going in the favor of the crypto market especially when it comes to that of the bitcoin as the demand of the bitcoin is greatly reducing which is resulting in the decrease in the market price of the bitcoin. Panic selling is also one of the key reason which is resulting in the downfall of the market and that investors have started believing that all their investment will go in vain.

Investing in bitcoin is very risky because there are some people spreading negativity to destruct bitcoin image so people get panic and sell their bitcoin in low price. Panic selling may advantageous to people who destruct bitcoin they can buy it in low price and sell it to higher price once the market value recover.

The price of bitcoin is going down because due to lack of supply in the marrket. Most people hold the coins for long term. Because of price volatality they are not ready to sell. Hold the coins for future to get better price than now. Many people in the market are ready to buy now due to its low price. For past three days the price is slowly increasing and it makes investors happy. It seems the market will recover return soon.

Maybe too much news on the internet that prohibits cryptocurrency so user many do sale

Many reasons behind bitcoin value getting dropped down more and more. Negative NEWS on bitcoin is the main reason behind bitcoin value being so low. Investors being calm waiting for either price to be more high or be so low are the other reasons behind bitcoin value's drop. As values are low, the bitcoin holders are not circulating the coins and this is other reason behind it value drop. Large investors might have stopped moving towards bitcoin and focusing on other altcoin or ICOs. This would be a reason for bitcoin value to be at the bottom.

Because it went up too much too fast. It is an overdue correction.

Right now, the market value of bitcoin has started recovering which is a very good news for all the investors who have invested their money into it. Since the past few days, the market value of bitcoin was very low and that was all because of the decrease in the demand of the bitcoin in the international market as well as the panic selling which was done by so many investors who were previously holding their coins.

Aren't the price going up now?

Did you check when the thread have started? Or you just replied a one line shit here?

The thread was opened last March when bitcoin keeps on going down that's why the OP is asking. Yes bitcoin recovered to $8K but as per coinmarket, the price is below it so we again are seeing some negatives so it looks like the current price is not sustainable because we need to break the next mental barrier which is $8500, but since we didn't I speculate that we may see the bears taking over again. I hope I wrong though.

No one asks why bitcoin go down the people are asking only when the price of bitcoin go up and to hold or sell but the price will not come back to normal stage like the last year but my opinion is wait as much as possible in case it will grow up soon it will be very positive for us.

I agree with your opinion, this makes more sense and according to the theory of treding that I know.

The reason why bitcoin is going down because there are so many people until this time get panic and sell their investment.

The market value of bitcoin was little low and that it has disappointed most of the investors too but the fact is it has started recovering and this is a very good news for all those who were patient since the time the market value of bitcoin was low and they are now hoping of making some huge profit as well. The reason behind this downfall of the market value of bitcoin was the panic selling and decrease in the demand of the bitcoin.

Absolutely right the price is growing again and soon it will regain its old price which was the high price in the history of bitcoin. I mean 19000 dollars. But it is also predicted that till the year of 2018 it will be more than its previous peak. This is good news for old and new investors, because many people afraid of investment in bitcoin because of the fall in the price and so much volatility in the price.

Bitcoin was increasing in price last year because of extensive advertising in mass media. Many people began to buy up cryptocurrency when they saw constant growth of Bitcoin. The same was happened when many people started to panic and sell their investments last December. I'm sure that now is a good time to buy Bitcoin because its price will rise by winter until the next big dump.

   The fall in the price was just a matter of time and now it is rising again. Today’s price is more than 8000 dollars while it was about 6000 dollars a few days ago. It means that the price is gradually increasing. There is nothing to worry about the price because 2018 is the year of bitcoin and till the end of the year the price will hit 25000 dollars or more than that.

Bitcoin is a notoriously volatile currency and its value has swung wildly.
I suppose that lately the news about criptocurrencies aren't good and investment people doesn't want losing

You cannot expect the market value of bitcoin to keep on going up all the time and that there will come certain occasions in the future as well when the market value of bitcoin will go down and that can be because of any reason. You need not to be worried about at that time and that you just need to keep on holding all your coins so that you can stay safe and that you don’t lose anything.

Yes it plays vital role in making bitcoin price high and low, people sell bitcoin at panic and they get small profit, also it makes the market red, If they will not sell bitcoin in hurry then no one will ever get lose, market will remain high, bitcoin has started to increase right now so let the market of bitcoin be high and wait don’t sell at panic then price of bitcoin will not get that low, bitcoin goes down with panic selling, don’t sell if the price is not high then hold as much as you can hold and buy more with your money.

But price is not stable. It any time to change the price. So it not easy way to guess the price information. If need to more information check the market place and coin disk. It help to gather more information. Bitcoin news in the coin disk. So check you get more ideas for the price information. It good opportunity to invest. But before invest you know the all process.

In my opinion, BTC is drop most because of some negative or false news, the news a BTC tend to fall in the short term, at last a period of time the market will start to recover, time can prove everything. I think it's a good time to invest when bitcoin falls.

Huge drop came's when big fuds occur on bitcoins but as usual bitcoins overcome this another challenge hit on him since the price slowly climbs back which can be called as good indicator for us that there's a huge possibilities that bull run will came.

This is due to lack of knowledgeable and Experience. Instead of understanding crypto currencies people start investing on it and lose money. Actually the problem is people hates to learn new things and underestimate. Same with crypto currencies. Someone gives them wrong info which case they start hate bitcoins. But it won't affect on bitcoins. Its not our problem they're Ruined their future with there own hands.

I know it is very uncomfortable stage all of us including me the only way available now that is holding or selling ,if you hold now it will be both good or bad in this but if you sell it is only loss for us so the choice is depends on the situation of investor.

This game is for those who have money. Swim with them, then live, swimming is off the island :)

In my own opinion I believe one of the causes why bitcoin price is going down is due many speculations that pointing bitcoin market to crash again.

Till the end of year 2017 the price volatile but not too much but in 2018 there came a big difference in the price we saw that 19000$ was the peak of bitcoin price but then it fells and fells and came to as low as 6000$. Nobody knows why the price fell too much because when it was increasing more and more people were investing in bitcoin. There is a peak for everything and then downfalls starts.

even if they hear about the speculations of bitcoin, as long as they have their own opinion about bitcoin, the price will not go down especially down too deep. the bitcoin price is only going down because of many people getting panic because of one or more bad news is launch by some people that don't want to see the bitcoin price increase high. and people attracted to sell their bitcoin before it's too late to sell and they don't even think that bitcoin will still survive for a long time.

Agree with you bitcoin price is not going down but it is increasing now, high speculation, increasing demand and Japan regulation has increased the price of bitcoin very high, so we can see bitcoin is growing more and more so we cannot forget it to be the next currency of the era. Most of people around us are bitcoin users and they are showing great interest for bitcoin just because of easy use and fast transaction throughout the whole world to me bitcoin is spreading all over the world as the most expensive currency, no doubt bitcoin will get higher that this within few years.

All I can blame is the taxes. I'm sure that traders and investors are very reluctant now to spend anything to crypto because all they can think of is the computation that they need to pay and that put the market down everyday.

Yes it is the good time to invest in bitcoin because price of bitcoin is not very high but it is rising high once again, high amount of people are buying bitcoin and it is getting high more and more if we will hold our bitcoin with high amount of patience trust me it will earn high amount of profit for you,  the reason for price falling is the panic selling by the people so those who use to sell bitcoin in dump use to lose some profit and at the same time they use to take part in bitcoin dumping, so hold don’t participate in dumping of bitcoin .

It might the way the big investors do to affect the price. Many big investors want to buy a large quantity of bitcoin and due to their business tactics the prices increase and decrease. When the price goes down they buy bitcoin and when the price up again they sell their holding. That’s why their decisions affect the price of bitcoin. I don’t think that there is any other reason.

bitcoin prices fell due to the many issues of negative issues circulating recently. but you do not need to panic and worry because bitcoin is a very good coin, popular and a solid team. they will pump again until the higher velocity of the coin's price.

Yes that's what I think also because market price can easily fluctuate once there is a negative issue because issues can influence them to get panic and sell bitcoin to save their capital.

Bitcoin is becoming increasingly decreased because bitcoin users are selling their bitcoins on a large scale. It triggers bitcoin prices to further plummet because no more investors are buying bitcoins. Bitcoin becomes unsold. Because of those more and more crypto users who feel disappointed and lost their investment lost.

Some people get worry about rise and fall of price of bitcoin, whenever it get high people use to sell but some people get issue on the falling price, but it is not good to panic your bitcoin, it will contribute to the price getting down panic seller are making market down so they should have patience and not to sell at any cost have patience when price get down don’t lose your trust about bitcoin, it does not take much time to get high so encourage then when they lose their hope.

This is the crypto market and that in this market, the market value of all the crypto coins keeps on changing and that it is not a surprising thing. The only thing about which you need to care is that your reaction at time when the market is falling. You need to stay patient and that you need to keep your nerves under your control so that you may be able to hold all your coins and can go for buying more coins.

Decrease in the market value of the bitcoin is not that much surprising thing as this is the nature of the bitcoin and that all of this is because of the fluctuating nature of the crypto coins. Other than that, one another reason which has affected the market value of bitcoin this much is the panic selling which is being done by the investors who have previously invested their money into it.

There are so many other factors as well other than that of taxes and higher transaction fees which are resulting in the downfall of the market value of the bitcoin.

I will blame the ones who are selling their bitcoins at this very moment the most as it is them who are contributing the most in bringing the graph downwards. Other than that, the reaction of some of the governments is also creating a negative impact of the crypto currencies.

Guess the prices might be going down since people are taking short term profits, why not take profit where you can?

In my opinion many false statement from different people and mostly from the banks are the main cause of the fall in bitcoin price, because banks realized that people are withdrawing their money from banks and investing in bitcoin therefore banks lobby do not want bitcoin to be succeeded. When people listen these types of statement they afraid to buy bitcoin.

Bitcoin prices have come down drastically, in my opinion, it is due to the effect of mass sales made by some bitcoin users who are experiencing panic. In addition, I think this is also part of the cycle in crypto if at the beginning of the year the market price will go down, and in the mid, to the end of the year, the market price will again rise again. So we all should be able to set the strategy well so as not to lose.

You might right that taxes are also the cause of the fall in the price. I think that most governments banned bitcoin in their respective countries because they think that mostly criminals put their money in bitcoin which has no records and use this money in illegal activities, therefore they banned bitcoin. And the other reason is that the price is too much volatile and due to this people are not investing in bitcoin.

Not even in just crypto market as this is the normal thing that happens in every market and as long as you are able to understand that, you will not even blink an eye with respect to whatever happens in the market. The market cannot keep moving upward and vice versa, but the thing to always look out for is usually the aftermath of a recovery which most people are always eager to see anyway.

One thing is that any market driven by FOMO and greed will never last and that is how market always ends up playing out which a lot of people usually do not understand. As long as you understand that any price that is not sustainable in the long run or look too good to be true is actually popping up, then it is about time to take some U-turn because the aftermath is usually not good. Steady and good growth is always better.

Don’t you know that Bitcoin is sometimes a bubble? That’s what we call pump and dump, cause whales we come in and manipulate the price, making it go up to a higher rate and then fall whenever they withdraw their money.

So if you invested when the price was around the rate of $20,000 you have no other options than to have patience and wait till the price goes up so you can make your profit and withdraw, unless you choose to sell with loss. The choice is all yours to make, but I will prefer to hold till the price goes up.

Others call it correction, others see's it as a lost. What i see is a perfect time to buy.

Bitcoin manage to bounce back and is now at $9300 plus. While the market is volatile due to that pump and dump it still continues to move upward.

Yes, right now it is in a positive phase. But as many people envisaged, it is not growing quickly.

If you are holding crypto currency for a many years then why you don't know about it that what is happening with bitcoin? And Why bitcoin price is going down?
But I guess some investor feel panic in this situation, may be it is happening with you. Bitcoin has come back from a highest price of $20000 then a huge people sold their bitcoins in a highest price who hold their bitcoins for a long time and wait for a good time, then definitely bitcoin has a big fall, it is the main reason. But now again bitcoin will come in high price so just wait it. 

There are so many reasons out of it. Some experts in the articles that i read is that some countries are having a problem and issue in some cryptocurrency they are not accepted in that specific countries so they banned it. The panic selling of people also it is one of the most main reason why bitcoin decreases.

If we look at the current situation of the crypto market, then we’ll get to know that the market value of the bitcoin is not going down and that now it has started going up and above all, there is a hope that the ones who are still holding their bitcoins will manage to make some huge amount of money in the future if they kept on doing so. You should never be a reason of the downfall of the market value of the bitcoin and that you need to stay away from panic selling.

When more and bigger countries are going to accept bitcoin as their legal currency the tax ratio is increasing and it is not good for investors. People invest in bitcoin because it was decentralized and the governments have nothing to do with it and there were no taxes but now gradually taxes are imposed on bitcoin investment and trading. This is big cause of fall in the price.

Many people think the same way that bitcoin market will crash again and that is the big reason for fall in the price. In these days people are investing their money again in bitcoin because of the growth in the price but still many people believe that this rise is for the time being and it will down again in the near future. But I think that 2018 is the year of bitcoin.

Bitcoin is very volatile indeed. We have to be clever as we move the graph. If if the price drops then we can buy the affordable price for maybe we need to be patient because we need to hold it for the price back up. This is a game of big investors

The price always crashes after a big uptrend when it enters a new year mostly the price fluctuate's in the 1st quarter but eventually recovers and have another bullish run in the mid year. There is a pattern that has been explained about this in this forum. I think this is how the whales makes money.

Bitcoin price crash or fluctuations is a common thing with cryptocurrency. After price drops there will be assured price pumping. It is our goodness to predict in the right manner and benefit through it, because on price drop users easily get into panic and sell their holdings which.

From 20,000 dollars price last year to decreased at 50 percent as of now. I hope bitcoin will increase more again and for sure most of us earn more money. I think why the price of the bitcoin decreased or down it's because the price increaae and many people sell their bitcoin so they can get more profit and some of them are panic selling so the price dump.

Investors are still buying bitcoin as it is, so I beg to differ on what you have just said. As long as the market is going down, some are still buying and only those who are weak are usually the ones who bail out. This is how it works, it is a speculative market and it is always going to be easy for whales to have sweet moments.

Price is driven up to catch the greedy ones, and then it drops hugely just to get the weak ones out. As long as you understand all this, you will not be bothered.

I think because of in some countries bitcoin is not popular, in fact in my country Indonesia, the Government starts to make a regulation for using bitcoin, but i think we have hope when KFC starts selling their product and we can use bitcoi  as payment

That's normal in a business,demand is getting low now but the demand is high the bitcoin will increase also

Always attributing everything to panic. It is just the way the market works and once the market is overbought, it is normal to see some little correction to go retest some level of support and try as much as possible to affirm that support and in that case, we will some little bit of downward movement. It is just the ways of bots and traders doing their thing in the market and those who want to panic will only end up doing so at their own detriment.

This is the kind of question that starts arguments at dinner parties. Will Bitcoin rise this year? Will it fall this year? Who knows? What is the Bitcoin price prediction? Even though Bitcoin and its technology are very useful and are changing the world, anybody that claims to ‘know’ whether the price of Bitcoin will rise or fall is a liar. Sorry, but that’s the truth.

I strongly believe that blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies are the future. This is why I believe the price of Bitcoin will increase this year. This is what I believe, but I can never know. All I can do is guess and make a Bitcoin price prediction. You can look at charts, you can look at news, but you can never ‘know’ for sure.

There are people that say Bitcoin is a ‘bubble’ like the ‘dot-com bubble’ that happened when internet companies’ stocks started increasing in price back in the late 1990s. They say that Bitcoin will ‘burst’ in 2018, meaning they think it will crash.

In the dot-com bubble, the stocks got to really high prices. But when the bubble ‘burst’, the stocks went straight back down to low prices. The people that bought the stocks when they were at high prices, lost most of their money. This is why it is important not to invest more money than you can afford to lose.

There are also people — like John McAfee (the founder of McAfee Security) — who predict that the Bitcoin price will keep increasing this year. In fact, John McAfee predicts that Bitcoin will multiply by 10 (increase by 1,000%) in 2018! He also says it’ll be $1,000,000 by 2020. Imagine that!

To my own understand  Bitcoin price need to go down.... Why?, it because according to market it goes up and down... You can accurately fixed the price. But looking at bitcoin falling easily.... I think it due to the numbers of investors who are afraid to loss their money and also different countries not accepting cryptocurrency.... Don't forget the way scammer and hacker are taking away peoples money.

There are so many things which then contribute in bringing down the market value of the bitcoin and that because of which, most of the investors get disappointed as well. However, there is nothing much to be worried about because of the reason that the market value of the bitcoin has started recovering and that there are likely chances that it will go even higher in the future.

As in the above statement, now it is not necessary to fear about the price drop. After price falling to some point, it gains momentum to break the value and move forward. Now to attain the $10000, it is gaining resistance. Soon we can see the price of bitcoin progressing above $10000.

the amount of money is determined always by the investor himself but there is a rule that never invest what can`t you afford and when you invest think that money as alost money.

Prices on the market are often changing in every minute, hour, or day. all not apart from the cryptocurrency trend itself. I often see the original good and high prices. But after a while, the price turned down. This is something natural and common. Maybe you should be patient in the face of this. You can sell and replace with a new instrument that is more powerful, of course, with various analysis and consideration of trends. Maybe that's just a good suggestion from me for you. hope you succeed

If we look at the graph of the market value of the bitcoin since past few days, then we will get to know that the market value of the bitcoin is not falling. In fact, the graph is going upwards and that the market has started turning into green which is a very good sign and that it brings a confidence for all those who have invested their money into it as they can hope for much better earning in the coming days.

When the volume of bitcoins rolling in the market decreases because of the control of whales of their holdings like selling some percentage, that affects also the possessions of many bitcoin investors, would probably shake the market price of the bitcoin to dip, therefore the strength of bitcoin relies on the stability of the volume and its reputation

I think bitcoin prices go down due to many factors, including if there is a social media that is cornered bitcoin, so many infestors who sell bitcoin.dan there is a sale and purchase law if many are selling certainly bitcoin prices in the market will decrease.

i think that such a small fluctuation is always there in bitcoin market, i think that bitcoin price will hopefully continue to increase its price, and hope that very soon we will see crossing the 10000$ figure, and even after that the price will continue increasing and not going to fell down any more.

The best way is patient for buy bitcoin.. bacause if you patient, you can get good time for buy it.. Someday prices bitcoin will be up again.. Don't panic..

its a normal thing the more he goes down the more he goes stronger in long term the more it goes down the more you should buy :)

Bitcoin's price drops as more investors sell Bitcoin than investors who buy Bitcoin. So naturally, if the price of Bitcoin can go down drastically. But now the price of Bitcoin has started to rise and this is a good sign for the development of Bitcoin in the future. If you can continue to maintain the high price of course Bitcoin can continue to survive. The perfect time to buy some Bitcoin is when the Bitcoin price goes down and now is the right time to hold the Bitcoin we have.

BTC has no proprietary platform

 Scalability　issues

LTC plays the role of BTC and take its position

it's nice to see bitcoin price come back to the higher price again after yesterday, the price gets down and reaches $9300 price level. I think the price going down is because people cannot stay calm to wait for the price and they sell their bitcoin with instant. but this will not make the price down for deep because there are many people that will hold and place support in the market so the price won't go lower.

The only reason most people were buying in the first place was because the price was going up parabolically. Now that it's not doing that anymore, there's fewer and fewer buyers, regardless of whether they can get it on credit or not.

People seem to think calling it a bubble is a stupid meme, but I firmly believe that is what it was, it went pop on 19th Dec.

Bitcoin is very volatile indeed. We have to be clever as we move the graph. If if the price drops then we can buy the affordable price for maybe we need to be patient because we need to hold it for the price back up. This is a game of big investors

No I think it is coming to its natural speed of growth so the unexpected and unnatural growth is cutting off gradually. Now it will rise again but not with high jumping like kangaroo, but like a turtle. The corrections were right and it is a best chance for new investors to buy some bitcoin on that low price. may they never find such a golden chance in the future.

Demand and supply are the rules of Economics and it affect price very much. On $20k most people sold their bitcoin and there is huge supply in the market and there were no investors. Thus the price fell downand there was no or very little demand for bitcoin. So the price down a lot and many investors lost their investments. Now it is rising again.

All those who panic and supports it game between the whales.

i believe the price of bitcoin today are manipulated by some investor who want to buy bitcoin in cheaper price

i fell you buddy! i bought coin and hold it for almost 2 months now but i dont get even a small profit instead i was losing it now to almost 15% in my capital. i am little dissappointed of what is going on in the market but i can do nothing i just hold on because if i sell it today it will really means failure/losing my capital...

Probably everyone selling to buy this:

https://twitter.com/w3c/status/994990814328705025

Yeah you are right. When there is whale in the sea small fishes will eat nothing. Price has been affected by big investors. They hold a large quantity and when the manipulate in the market and the price rise they sell their bitcoin for higher price and then decide to crash the price to buy coins again. Up and down is due to the decisions and manipulations of these monsters.

Main reasons are bitcoin hard fork in last augest and bitcoin banned in china. therefore all investers in china sell there bitcoin. china is few times banned cryptocurrency. but nearly they will remove all regulations for cryptocurrancy. stay hopeful. ;)

If you are a holder from so many years then you clearly know what is happening.

I think there are some big investors who do not want people to make money from bitcoin. They manipulate the market and make such decisions that only favor them and not the public. This is the main reason for falling of price. it is not only in bitcoin but in all sectors of life. Big pigs will never let you earn money while they are there in the market.

It is a playground for whales now as they are the ones who uses it.

When one does something there are two consequences, intended and unintended.

I think when "Satoshi" and the large network of contributors created the foundation for this idea of "decentralization" it created the ripple effect that I think would make Satoshi proud.  It started a new way of looking at every industry, tech, and gave possibility to a new world order.  However it also has unintended consequences when you have something completely unregulated and decentralized.  It allows the rich and powerful to find ways to start manipulating and controlling it.  Greed and need tend to take over all good intentions.  People who owned bitcoin started to sell off when they saw they are now rich and places like Mt. GOX dumping their massive amount of coin (which in itself goes against decentralization) and who bought it when it was down to 6k?  Mostly whales and people who wanted to do a large pump and dump.  So they pump the price to a little over 10k and then start dumping.  BTC is the most liquid asset in crypto and for someone with billions of dollars why not.  For all we know Bill Gates and Warren Buffet get together, and pump it then do an interview where they dump all over it and dump it.  Then do it again and again.   Who knows, but the point is that when you start to make a dent in the fabric of what people consider normal (which is what BTC has done), you are now attracting the wolves out there, and there are plenty in the BTC world.  You will not see a stable price for a long time if ever.  As long as you don't watch it every day you might not get so sick sitting on the roller coaster.

Yes it is so very upsetting knowing that from the value of 20,000$ will hit 5,000$ and below that is very upsetting into anyone that holding such money.  I am advising you that in every time you are about to buy bitcoin always look at charts and try to study them by doing that it helps you to gain more profit.

Because the big holders are hitting Bitcoin by selling it. I think governments are selling it and do not want to be 20.000 us dollars again. Because if Bitcoin reaches this number again, it will bring a lot of new investors to the blockchain. They do not want that. They want us to believe this thing will over soon!

A lot of countries came down pretty hard on miners and that caused a ripple effect throughout the crypto community. Once these miners and investors come back then it will increase again.

But if we look at the price graph of bitcoin then price of bitcoin is increasing more and more instead of getting down because now people are investing, with time bitcoin market is turning to green once again, it has been down for long time but now it is rising once again and I am sure coming months are going to be best bitcoin months to contribute the price of bitcoin get high.

No one can really predict the future and if you have been around you know it better.

Since last few weeks, we have seen a very much positive change in the market value of the bitcoin and rest of coins which are there in the crypto world which is no doubt a very good news for all those who have invested their money into the crypto coins and that they are very much satisfied with the way the market value is increasing. There is nothing to worry about the market value of the bitcoin as it will never disappoint us.

This suggests that the offers have become more than the demand for them, and now began to put up their own, but it also depends on the news in the world and that China has refused crypts, but that it is also not nice whether he refused or not

What I noticed though is that most newbies doesn't understand it, they still think that bitcoin is not high enough for them. For sure they thought that the price could go on a parabolic rise, however, this market is very different, volatile and anything can change in a instant. There's nothing to worry about, think about it, bitcoin was below $1K at the start of 2017 and its 2018 already and the price is $8xxx. That's a huge returns if you have bought it during that time frame and just continue to hold. You can't get that anywhere else, not even in banks. So I'm not disappointed if the price is below the all-time-high because sooner or later we will touch it again and ever surpass it.

Invest only in the money that is affordable by you otherwise do not.

Bitcoin is digital currency. So it easy to reach and it any time to change. So bitcoin price is not stable. But some people post for the bitcoin negative it will go down. So people try to ban the bitcoin. But one one can not ban and stop the bitcoin. It good future digital currency. So people belove the bitcoin for the future invests. If need for the bitcoin news for bitcoin price down information. Check the coin disk. It help to get more news and information for the bitcoin.

Bitcoin price goes down when there are some FUD that makes people PANIC (newbies)
Walls of whales in the market. this also affect the price of bitcoin.
but no matter how the price fall, we can make sure that it will bounce back soon.

may be the price is still going down because untill now bitcoin is not yet recovering

What we should continue to do is use bitcoin because with it we can stabilize the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin prices are often pumped and dumped by large investors. Never panic because it will only make things worse. Make sure we stay calm and I'm sure bitcoin prices can survive fairly stable.

that is right, we need to still support bitcoin no matter if the price is not stable and changing in every time. and if many of us know this, I think bitcoin price can get increase and will stable in one range of price. besides that, I think there will be many chances for us to see the price will get higher than the last highest price but we need to be patient and wait for a while.

Bitcoin will grow but I do not know when it happens. Now we are looking that funds and investors are accumulating their position on low prices so it means that growth is going to be soon. I am holding ETH, for example, and I am sure that I will be able to double my initial investment.

May be the cause of price going down is due to some people spreading negavity to destruct the image of bitcoin in the market.

last weekend it was published in the news that the value of bitcoin and ethereum dropped due to the comments of warren buffet and bill gates to cryptocurrency. They both believed it is not different from gold that prices are just placed on them. I believe buffet came in a age why technology was few and he is struggling understand some concept. Why I have not been worried is because he does this often with bitcoin while with the media. I just dont understand why bill gates has not been consistent with his comment on the currency. sometimes his comment supports the coin and few times against it.

You are absolutely right bitcoin is now getting high because of more involvement of investors and highly acceptability of bitcoin, now there are a lot of countries who have recently regulated bitcoin as currency and they are accepting is for selling and buying goods in market places, bitcoin price is getting better gradually so no worries as we are hopeful about better bitcoin future.

It is also true what you say,
Nowadays ivestor backs down because of unproved news, many want to lower the bitcoin price, when the coins are down they must be flocking back to buy coins, because that is their trick to get maximum results.

Cause it is the essence of the bitcoin's trading when the value of bitcoin never down or never decreases it is not good for the people to know it they will think that bitcoin is not volatile anymore and when that's happen for sure the value of bitcoin will never be considered anymore.

Exactly, it’s pretty normal that bitcoin price goes down. We all know that bitcoin or cryptocurrency is extremely volatile, it fluctuates currently but it will be never in dip forever. In fact, it will always have a rise again. The price of bitcoin depends much on demand and supply.  Yep, obviously almost users feel panic easily when the price’s going down, they probably   sell immediately in panic. Generally, often we have to accept the risks and loss in crypto market but alongaside we’d bette keep our head in any situation.

Only those that leave themselves open for manipulation can be manipulated, even if the current crash in the market was manufactured you are not going to lose money unless you sell your coins, in fact if the market is really being manipulated you have the opportunity of taking advantage of it the same way the manipulators can, you can get bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency at a very cheap price.

Demand is getting low that's why bitcoin going down

Well it's the other way. Lately a big investor from china announced he had just finished investing in bitcoin big chunk. The announcent was in a way that he had nothing at the beginning of the year but started buying as the price falled and now he is done. So he caused big demand support for the bitcoin. And there were probably other big money that noticed bitcoin last year and didn't want to buy it overpriced (no matter what is real price of bitcoin it is not over 10 000 ATM).

So the price was hyped, then falled when old money cashed profit, then big money moved in, and now it depends. Get out the tinfoil hat.

None has the perfect reason to describe for the price drop. Some term it a correction, because the price has been staggering without much increase after falling from the level above $9500. Whether it is a correction or some kind of manipulation, now a pumping is required to make the market move good.

You have to buy Bitcoin when the price of Bitcoin really is going down drastically. From the beginning of the year, Bitcoin prices are very much different from the end of last year. I also did not expect the price of Bitcoin which drops almost half of even more down. But even so, I still trust Bitcoin as my investment asset in the future. Maybe now Bitcoin is going through a difficult time and our duty is just monitoring it and hope all these problems can be solved.

I always wondered to people asking the question "why the price falls?" So probably because it always can not grow and there will be times when it will go down.
But everyone thinks that the price of food should only grow. This is not an Eden is a life in which miracles happen only in a dream)))

You are very right bitcoin never remain at same price, bitcoin use to get high and low, it use to move according to the demand and the supply. When more people use to buy bitcoin it makes they price bitcoin very high and when, more sell it makes the price low,  so in short you will only have to keep on holding at low and don’t sell at panic so you will never get lose in bitcoin journey of long term investment.

I don’t think there is any reason to panic at all. This is what we faced last year and many were complaining. I can remember that all my friends that withdrew their money from Bitcoin last year ended up regretting what they did and I hope you don’t make the same mistake.

(well, everyone will not always win) the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies went high around ending if last year and that’s the same thing that wants to happen this year.

Agree, and this is just normal reaction of the crypto market considering volatility characteristics but i still believe bitcoin soon will rise and we will be benefited.

Btc will rise above 20k again or even more.  Hold and buy more now that its low so you will laugh hard b4 da year runs out.

Fear of uncertainty and doubt is making people to panic sell Their coin, thereby making the price unstable

Trading will not effect bitcoin prices continue to decline.

OP ask why bitcoin price going down? trading will create a fluctuating price which means the price will rise and fall, this normal condition that we will see per day in market cryptocurrency. But the cause of bitcoin continues to decline is the number of users who sell bitcoin because there is news or negative information coming to the world of cryptocurency, such as the government's ban regulations against bitcoin and so forth.

The market will have some time to go up and down to balance, I think it is time to buy into btc because the price is low, and the future is sure btc will rise as more and more investors will be new. poured money into the crypto market. Have faith in btc with me. Make wise investments with the amount you allow.

Well they should not be uncertain about the profit of bitcoin, if today price is low then no need to be worry it will rise very high soon, many people become panic seller because they are now having proper idea about bitcoin price fluctuation, so my suggestion for them is not to sell because price can pump high very fast such as now price of bitcoin is getting better for us no need to sell for at least 3 years as it plays vital role in making price highly down.

There are games of crypto whales. There are institutional investors, who use bitcoin futures, there is MTGOX case and so on. You know there are a lot of different factors which affect on the price. In my opinion you shoul have your own investment strategy and follow it.

last time whales so thoroughly ripped off casual investors that no amount of shilling can bring them back

...also, big investors like it cheap, anyway, and probably buying positions while we speak about it

I believe bitcoin is going down due to the impending Google and Facebook ban. This ban will make crypto marketing difficult and hence less people will be aware of the crypto services.

The market us stabilizing. I think it would moon soon.

This correction has nothing to do with Google and Facebook. They don't have such big and important influence on Bitcoin and besides their ban relates to some crypto advertising that could be harmeful for users anyway.
For a quite long period of time Bitcoin price is going back and forth but always in a range between 7000$ and 9000$. I beleive this situation will remain for a while because Bitcoin market still isn't ready for biger price jump.

why bitcoin prices go down, in my opinion a good price spike as it rises and falls is influenced by new investors who did not follow from the start of a coin journey, so the investors panicked and then sell their coins at cheap prices, whereas the rise and fall of the coin for me is the thing common, hopefully useful

No I am not agree as a single banning cannot effect the price of entire bitcoin, as not only google or facebook is there to promote bitcoin but a lot of other sites are there who are making bitcoin famous and they are properly making people aware of bitcoin features and the benefits just like, instagram, YouTube, twitter and chrome and many more are there so it’s not big deal.

That's right, Google, FB and Twitter just ban crypto and ico adds and it has no influence on bitcoin at all. It is probably the game of whales or simple correction.

It has been more than 8nyears we have heard of the world crypto currencies and the bitcoin but so far, it was not possible for anyone of us to identify the exact reason behind the downfall of the market value of any of the crypto coin. The most common reason is the decrease in the demand rate and the panic selling which is being done by the investors. Other than that, the ones with heavy investments also affect the market.

What is wrong with the market today? Why does it fall? Who sells, why? After 6000 dollars why sell it at all? I do not see any news for the panic .... strange people ...

If you want to buy and invest in Bitcoin, I recommend buying Bitcoin at a low price. For example when the price Bitcoin touch below 100 million. Maybe if Bitcoin drops again to below 100 million, I think it's a good time to buy some Bitcoin and we invest in the long run.

100 million? So you think 1 BTC will fall to $6?

But hold on. I believe OP is talking about the Lightning Network! But if that "currency" is backed by a cryptocurrency, then what is backing that cryptocurrency. Our hopes and dreams as a collective?

The market value of bitcoin was quite low in the past few days but things have started turning in favor of the bitcoin and the crypto currencies as the market rates of the coins like that of bitcoin etc. have started rising once again and that this thing has given a hope to all those who are holding their coins that doing so will help them in having lot more earning and that they need to stay patient.

Jokes on side. This current drop is really serious and the price simply can drop back to 6000$. We should be ready for cold storage of our founds, cause of the situation is really going to be long term. The only sure perspective for serious grow u see in 2020 year when the time of next halving will come and miners fees will be cut tested on half again.

In my opinion, you should always follow the volumes. This works in regulated markets, then it is must work on unregulated markets. Follow the beatcoinmagnats and you will be in profit

Price may Go down so many time but bitcoin is very unpredictable when it will be up or when it will be down.bitcoin is very votalite.

Bitcoin price down of course many factors that cause. The fall in Bitcoin prices is also because many investors are selling Bitcoin at low prices. But now the price of Bitcoin has started to improve and this is a good time to buy some Bitcoin then you hold it in the long run. You can spend half of the money you have. No more worry about Bitcoin and do not leave Bitcoin.

I advise you to buy Bitcoin now. Bitcoin prices are now starting to rise again but if you buy it now then you hold it until the end of this year. I am sure you will get multiple benefits. You do not have to worry about investing in Bitcoin because Bitcoin is definitely promising. And you can spend big capital to buy some Bitcoin.

My opinion is that bitcoin has not yet been appreciated by everyone, that's done, but this is again done to buy it in the future, hence it follows that it is simply held at a level that suits many. At the moment.

Because it fluctuates every year. It is normal that people are buying btc to increase the value and sell their bitcoin also when the value increase. The supply and demand applied in bitcoin that's why it is increasing and decreasing at the same time. People who are not good at trading makes bitcoin comes down also.

I think bitcoins are less attractive to whales, they prefer the more altcoin brass, where new entrants look for wealth 🤣🤣

it's preparing for a hit, i think

Whole market goes down because now we see correction of Bitcoin and whole the market. From the pint of view of technical analysis it is natural for any kinds of markets. From the point of view of fundamental analysis we simple manipulations of whales. They just making money through sell high, crash the market and buy low.

I think the best idea is to only invest what you can afford to lose...... Every investment has its own risk you know. But I do believe it'll still go up, I mean common its Bitcoin.

The whole thing happening right now is perfectly normal. because Bitcoin's price movements will always be this way, most are strongly influenced by whales who want to take advantage of opportunities. We can not do anything but wait for the market to improve. Continue to increase the use of Bitcoin can make confidence improved and it can gradually increase the value of Bitcoin price in some future time.

It's expected for a bitcoin to decrease if there are continuous exposy about the negativity of bitcoin because once people heard they are doing panic selling to save their capital from possible loss.

Right that bitcoin increases and decreases because of us we are investors it is our duty not to let it down as if we will hold our bitcoin it will not fall as really effective way of making price high is avoiding panic selling so this way bitcoin will only rise, as it is the time when price is getting down so users should not be greedy to sell at once, first let it grow and be high more and more without selling at panic.

Yeah falling prices are a natural thing of bitcoin price changes in the market, and we don't need to panic because of this, but the question is what makes the bitcoin price steadily declining in recent weeks? because there is nothing surprising about bitcoin price changes this month

People who uses bitcoin and we can call them the traders in the market of cryptocurrency are the cause of bitcoin's value decreasing and also those people who are scared of being loss of their bitcoins. We should consider bitcoin as our savings bank so that we are not having the fear of being loss.

If only I had a lot of capital to invest I would buy / invest now, because we know now that the affordable price makes investors easy to get the coin, and what if bitcoin rises? It would be less sincere, I think this time is the right time to invest,
thanks.

Yes, you will indeed get upset if you buy crypto for bigger price not even knowing that the price of it will soon drop. Well, you should see the history price of crypto every year so that you will know when to buy and when to sell. Well, it is hard to make an advance decision though, because we definitely doesn't know what might happen tomorrow and to the future. Just read some articles or news and analyze if it will have an effect to crypto community, so that you will know if the price will go up or the price will fo down. For how much money, well, it depends what can you afford to invest.

And the cause hasn't been appreciated.. because it does still have certain considerations that accompanied the things that opposed it such as the system of government or governmental law on currency/finance. Well anyhow still be thinking about the risks that can happen, but someday.. it could be have been more appreciated/accepted when all associated with crypto.. it can be deepened till be well adopted and supported.

Bitcoina price is far more worst last year, but we all saw that it got up in an unexpected value in its last months, so maybe this year it will happend again and better

If I tell you safe answer then it is manipulation it happened in the past many time and then btc touched ath . patience is necessary which is not there in new trader that's why they loose fund ,always focus on increasing quantity rather that seeing it through $ or € view.whales and big mining companies can easily manipulate the price to increase their holding so be smart and do not run for Small profit.

This would be very good,  the pesimistic mood is already starting. But I think everything will be fine.

Well yes and now market volume of bitcoin has started to recover again as you said it is very normal situation for bitcoin to rise and fall, so after dump now it is time to spread happiness because bitcoin is gaining volume so high as now whales are sleeping under the water and not selling bitcoin right now, last time bitcoin was down in price because so many people were selling their bitcoin at panic but now I think it is nice to see price is recovering again.

It is good to hold your bitcoin at the time of falling price, as you said it is very natural for bitcoin that it often decreases the price but the suddenly it rise very high, so if some people have sold their bitcoin which made the price down it does not mean you also become worry, sell panic and contribute to the price to become more than this, don’t panic as it will be your contribution in dumping, so hold and let it be high.

It is fact that whales do effect the price if bitcoin which is not good for new investors. I don’t want bitcoin to be controlled by anyone because I want to see the whole world using bitcoin as their regular currency in the future and if it is controlled by whales people like me will withdraw their investment which is not good for bitcoin promotion on the whole.

I think that bitcoin has long been controlled by someone and they can easily be manipulated as well as all other assets.

This is the beauty of bitcoin that the price is not stable and there is huge volatility in the price. More and more people take interest due to huge bumps and dumps in the price. Investors have big chances to gain handsome profits. If we observe the price for the last few weeks the price is almost stable and there is no such volatility in the price. stuck between $8-8.5k.

Hard to answer now. The cap volume is big as never before, good news here and there, demand is decent.. Maybe bears still control the market and we have to wait for a bull wave. Anyway, $20k was overpeiced

I advise you to buy Bitcoin when the price of Bitcoin reaches below 100 million. Because at that time the price of Bitcoin to be low and the right time to buy more Bitcoin. You do have to invest in Bitcoin because Bitcoin is a very promising investment asset.

Big institution owners don't want crypto to be valuable. They want to rule their world. They want to become richer. They want more central structures to control all the people earning and spending money in the world. This is the main reason.

yeah I think the declining price and havent recover yet happens because many impatient users and sell their huge amount of bitcoin en masse, thus contributing to the dump, the declining price is reasonable because of demand and supply cause, if you want prices go up, be patient and do not sell your bitcoin, hold it, I'm sure the demand will continue to rise and make the price go up

although yesterday bitcoin price is down and in the red zone, today bitcoin price increases back and now the color is changed to the green zone. I hope that this will still increase and no matter it is slow to increase higher and makes the correction price, bitcoin will break any of the walls in the market so the rest of this year, bitcoin can reach another highest price like before.

Whether we want it or not, those whales are capable of manipulating the price of cryptocurrency because of their investments. I think they are so rich enough to get control this system. Unfortunately we are being affected. But somehow, this is helpful because it maintain a good market in the world of cryptocurrency

No one exactly knows or correctly predict what can happen in bitcoin but one thing for sure is that it will be great in the future and being in the game in the present is definitely an opportunity in receiving great amount of profit.
Yes, you can say that now is the best time to buy bitcoin - the earlier, the better and not to mention that it is on its drop currently.
The value of bitcoin mainly depends on its demand/supply scheme, the more the people buy it, the greater the price it gets.
How come you do not know this if you are in the field for years now?

I'm not sure that it will be great in the future because it's unclear who created it and who manages it! We will see.

a lot of people are losing their faith on the price of bitcoin, because most of them do not even care about bitcoin, just about the price and the return that it provides to them. Anyway, they will regret when it goes up.

I 100%agree with you. Only whales affect the price because I am not seeing any other reason for falling price. And it is not possible that price will fall without any reason. Big investors change the price according to their well and hold a huge quantity on low price and sell them for higher price and make huge profits. No doubt it is a game of whales.

because if I think that causes bitcoin price down it's a lot of negative issue issues that are about bitcoin. because the bitcoin is very sensitive really with a negative issue that can make bitcoin prices down as it is today

Bitcoin price is going down because of some reasons why it happened. Speculations has it that when bitcoin whales sell their bitcoin, a sudden plunge of bitocin's market price is felt. Another reason is also people selling off their bitcoin which means that the demand of people is also getting low.

Almost everyday you will hear or see rumors that gives negativity to bitcoin holders, if they panic we lose cause you will see again dumping of bitcoins in different exchanges,  bad news + panic+ massive dump = down.

There are other factors that affect the price of bitcoin. It is not trading. Whales also affect the price because they hold a huge quantity and when they decide to sell the price reaches to sky so they make big profits and when there is lot of quantity in the market available they buy on low price. Simply they create a situation for price ups and downs.

In my opinion crypto has nothing to do with twitter and it is all about blockchain. The reason for downing price I think is market cap. When more and more people withdraw their money from bitcoin the price will automatically drop and when people invest more the price will go up. Now a day the trend is on the way down but soon it will recover.

Of course, everybody will be disappointed when looking at losses that exceed 50% of funds used, the last time when bitcoin prices have reached $10,000 and it didn't last long even within a week.
The last time I read an article from Pantera Capital, dropped bitcoin price since the beginning of 2018 was caused by taxation that forced sell a lot of bitcoin to meet the tax requirements. And They also explain that in 12 months bitcoin prices will be back at $20,000.

My suggestion is better to invest your money 50% of current price and wait within 12 months hopefully the article gives accurate news.

Now, we can see that the price of bitcoin completely repeats all other top coins in the market. I think there's little reason to guess. The markets are under control!

Generally the price of bitcoin and other crypto coins go down, actually the market demand for these coins when reduces this in turns reduces the market supply which affects the price of bitcoin in reduction. The value of bitcoin varies directly with the demand for this coin and the value goes in the direction in which demand goes. The value these days is on the increase trend and constantly increasing as the market demand of people is increasing and more people are taking interest in the market.

The price of Bitcoin is not going down but less than 10k dollar and is a favorable market for people and we can achieve this price so we need to invest in this market. The price is increasing constantly and this regular increase is very good for Bitcoin and its users.

The price generally goes down when the demand decreases but the current market has a constant increase and this is the time we invest in order to make our coins valuable after a long term and our investments will payoff.

I think that in order for everything to begin to pay bitcoins instead of fiat money - we  need to stabilize the currency. For great jumps in the bitcoin course, they can not be used for all humanity.

In my opinion many reasons for dropping value of bitcoin. People are in complex about the future of bitcoin. Now many people think that their investment will be lost if bitcoin disappear from the market. Many say that it is a bubble and can be blown any time in the future. With the passage of time the trend of investors change and they put and withdraw their money due to complexion.

The price of Bitcoin is not going down further but is below 10k dollar which is achievable and one more thing which is important to highlight is the constant increase of Bitcoin value from 7k dollar to 7.7k dollar, if this constant increase continues then it is the sign to enter into a green market. We have seen the low markets before those recovered again and made us able to get profit. All you need in this time is to utilize it and to invest in this low market which is favorable for buyers.

In my opinion the price depends upon the investment ratio. When more and more people invest in bitcoin the demand increases and thus the price naturally increases. This is the rules of supply and demand. One thing more is important for all small investors that whales manipulate the market and the price is according to their wish. They affect the price too.

It is also one of the reasons that many people still do not believe in bitcoin and they do not want to invest in bitcoin. When there is no more investment the price will not increase. Price depends upon investment cap. Other reason is that whales affect the price because they manipulate the crypto market and change the price according to their well.

Bitcoin is not going down its price is going normal but there is no need to worry about bitcoin because its price is related with market some time its price will be high and sometime its price will be low and it’s not a first time that it’s going to happen it happen so many time before and I’m sure that this time its price will go more high because bitcoin don’t compromise on its price and it change its price fast from low to high.

Fluctuation of the price depends on the people's demand and supply that's why other users are switching to altcoins. Yet the transaction fees are getting higher and higher due to the demand of the mining fees everyone could not help it but rather wait for the upcoming LN but LN is under in development and everyone couldn't wait for it to release. Some FUD or fake news will affect also the fluctuation of the price because people will tend to panic selling if they see that the price is down. Price correction does a big impact to Bitcoin because of it's constant rising.
