Bitcoin Forum

what do you think about it? my prediction is bitcoin price will be back to $1000/btc in next 5 months or less. since oil price was fall down now and trade war between US and china. give your opinion pls

Why should the bitcoin rate fall if the price of oil falls? In my opinion, these events have no relationship with each other. If the price of an ordinary currency falls or rises, this should not directly affect the price of a cryptocurrency. The trade war between the United States and China, in my opinion, on the contrary, will increase the price of cryptocurrency. Where it is difficult for ordinary currency to flow or for payment of goods and services in ordinary currency, there will increase the demand for cryptocurrency and it should increase in price.

It might happen or it might not happen. However, I still believe that the price of bitcoin will rise up the next couple of months. We have different prediction about the price of bitcoin but all of us are predict that the price will gonna rise up than falling down.

I agree with you bradock, but I think that there could be relationship between markets because of bear trade bots.
Also, I think that is impossible to predict exact bottom price, we could just guess lowest price based on trend analysis which tells us that we are not near that point right now.
Bitcoin price fall down because of different factors, not just one.

IMO, it has nothing or very little to do with the trade war between US and China. It has probably more to do with failed expectations of another strong uptrend. It also has to do with the recent BCH fork where BTC is a sort of collateral victim.

In times like these it is always good to take a step back and revisit our motivation. Are we here only because we would like to profit from BTC in the next run to the moon? Or we are here because we are excited to be a part of a movement never seen before in human history. A movement that wants to redefine the very notion of money and possibly lay the foundations of a new and more transparent and fair monetary system. Even if bitcoin goes to $1000 or lower, it is still the closest possible match to perfect money that people have invented so far. How great is it to be a part of this? I think, it's pretty awesome.

Stocks are down in a major way lately too. Don't freak out just yet, but be cautious.

To go down to touch $1000 we don't need to need that long, if this decline continues then we will see it soon. The reason why bitcoin prices fall, I just think this is a step that seems to have to happen for a big increase next year. Because usually where there is a decline there will definitely be an increase and vice versa.

For me we  cannot really predict bitcoin as we all know that  bitcoin is very  volatile    :D  if the  the  price will  go down  like  1000 Dollar  well it's possible  as long ass price is still in correction or not   stable yet ;)

Don't worry it will not go below $2k since we have a news that SEC would approve the ETF next year. Let's wait and see if this one will really make a change in the market. And i don't think an oil price will do a difference in the market since it is not a cryptocurrency and both are different.

In my opinion, this is perfectly normal, Up and down trend is normal for a market.
If bitcoin was moving only in an upward trend, I would honestly classify it as a Ponzi or pyramid scheme, An you know what happens to Ponzi schemes? Their bubble bursts, usually in less than 2 years. But with the up and down trend of BTC, it clearly shows you that it is drive by demand and supply of circulating coins

I don't think the oil price is correlated, but a real China-USA trade war could have pretty stark indirect consequences. The stock market is broadly correlated to Bitcoin, and I believe equities are indicative of risk appetite in the markets. This is important because cryptocurrency is regarded as a high risk speculative class of assets.

Stocks are back hovering near the October lows, threatening a major downturn. If a crash occurs in the stock market, I believe it will push the crypto markets lower as well.

many factors make bitcoin or crypto currency and in my opinion the development of crypto currencies depends on the investor itself

There is no sure relationship between the price of the bitcoin and the international situation. It may be that these are speculative maneuvers, it may be that everything goes to zero, as the bitcoin may go to $ 50,000.
We are used to every kind of surprise ...

Very funny how you expect the price to always rise, yet when it fall everyone is scared and panicking.
There is a saying that goes; " What goes up must come down" i hope you now understand

i was doing research..when oil price down, stock market down, its make bitcoin price down. pecentage is 90% following oil prices. i remember when bitcoin have highest price $18000 or so, thats the highest oil and coal prices in world market after 4 years survived at the low prices.
So based on coal prediction plus palm oil prediction in next few months price still will go down. thats the reason i asssume bitcoin will going lower price in next few months.

I think it followed the stock market, and then because volatility is more of a concern for Bitcoin (+ unknowingness), fear sort of took hold.
I wouldn't be surprised if it recovers back to what it was, but it's anyones guess.

Unless corporations are using BTC to buy oil, otherwise oil price's movement won't have any effect on BTC.

many factor considered. some says is BCH has war, panic sales, China miners close down. but we not sure yet what spark the fire.

It is normal to see that the price of the bitcoin to goes down because it has the characteristics of being volatile. If you will observe the chart of the bitcoin, you can conclude that this current event is the same event where the price of the bitcoin rapidly goes up.

Its really something that is hard to explain why the current downturn is really massive without any stoppage. For me, bitcoin price going back to $1000 is not something we should be envisaging at the moment although its going to be hard not to think of it but hope is the only thing we have in our hands and striving to make things better in our own little way.

Bitcoin is dropping because:

It is still a small child and has to learn to walk before it can run.
It is affected by the loss of confidence of a lot of new people to Crypto (depressive Bear market)
It is re-adjusting because the manic Bull market pushed the price up too high.
It is re-adjusting because USD Tether might have manipulated the market.
It is seeing a selloff by speculators wanting to take advantage of the BCash ABC & SV fork.
Because bitcoin has evolved in cycles that require re-adjustment in value from time to time.

Just buy more...

I think this is a natural thing that happens to bitcoin every year after halving day, we compare it to last year after the first halving day bitcoin immediately experienced a price decline like now, I believe that the pattern of price movements will always recur with the form almost the same, so don't panic if now the price of bitcoin falls because this is only a reasonable correction before skyrocketing in the next 1-3 years

Next 5 month? are you going to skip the possibility that by January adoption from Bakkt will do something? I guess you are thinking that it will do nothing.

Bitcoin is an individual market though there has been some sightings that it has been also part of the world economy which is also affected by other markets such as stocks. I'm also thinking that there's no relation for bitcoin-oil thing but trade war from two big countries would certainly give massive effect.

If such country given that they have the biggest share in holding the coins dumps it, surely there will be an effect to the cryptocurrency value. An external factor that presses the most effect to cryptocurrency is the physical economy and because oil is of great importance and plays a major role to the economy then surely there is a relationship between the cryptocurrency and oil prices.

in my opinion the trade war between the two countries does not have any impact on crypto, yes, although it is not impossible that there is an indirect impact, but the impact we can see is due to the BCH hardfork event, this split is quite controversial so it has a negative impact on the market, not to mention this together with the event of Black Friday

Some of the reasons that bitcoin fell were the influence of the sharks they manipulated to make the price of bitcoin as well as eth's influence on the market and we always believed that bitcon would be fast. price recovery

Bitcoin prices fall are usually caused by many factors,  but the fall this time is due to big players who want to make a profit, they create bad public opinion and result in the fall in the value of bitcoin, this is what they want, about war vs China may not have an effect much with the price of bitcoin,  because what is attacked is usually the relevant currency,  dollar vs yuan, so each country will manipulate the value of the currency,  so the bitcoin is not much affected.

Trade war of US and China in oil was not related in bitcoin price, meaning the price of bitcoin is up to all investors and adoptions worldwide. And i think bitcoin price will not drop to $1000 as you predict in 5 months, it remain stable at or in between $3k - 5k.

Last four days bitcoin fall drop and lower under $3,900 and many investor feel panic for selling their bitcoin asset, we faced bad moment at the end of this years because bitcoin and altcoin really at lower and drop price.

The price of bitcoin goes up or down because of stuff related to this market and nothing more, the price of oil and the trade war between China and the US while important for the economy at large are not going to have a huge effect in this market, if you look at it you will see the reason the price went down had nothing to do with any event happening outside of the market, the price went down simply because of lack of demand, so I do not agree with your prediction.

But the smartest money buy bitcoin on every drop because they know what they are doing. They not just HODL, but passively increase they assets. Have you seen that https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5073747

It  is a bit hard to denote the main reason why Bitcoin price is falling, most prediction has being base on the fact that Bitcoin correction is still ongoing as the 2017 bull run was unrealistic and over hype, Bitcoin is an unstable and volatile currency.

this question is very difficult to answer, and this question can only be answered by someone who truly understands the bitcoin problem. wait a minute, i also really hate this question  ::)

It is not connected. They have a different kind of market.
Are you saying that investors in bitcoin are also investors of oil? I dont think so.

In my own opinion it could be a huge seller and then a panic.
Once somebody sees a movement like 500 usd down then some are already shaking and would ride that boat.
Making it dump more instead of just a $500 down.

You cannot stop it. There is no control within the market of crypto currencies. Anyone can sell anytime they want specially when they needed the money. Although bitcoin is already a currency, some still think of it as just an investment or a commodity which is the main problem.
If only merchants are accepting it then they would not need to convert to USD just so they could buy goods.

global elites will not let Bitcoin die, because the goal of bitcoin itself has not been achieved, they will continue to pump and dump to make room for new users to get new income and want to depend on bitcoin
when everyone depends on bitcoin, then the community will be easily controlled, with bitcoin

There is true, early 2018, of course, many new bitcoiners are hoping to make a lot of money here. but basically the purpose of bitcoin as a currency has not been reached, most of which deposit their funds here

maybe because there are a lot of issue issues that want to drop bitcoin, the bitcoin market is now declining, all the coins in the trading market are down, I will always try to find profits in the trading market

even though you hate questions like this, I think things like this will always be there, especially when the price of bitcoin is down. well, many say that this is because of FUD, however, the thing is clear, because there is panic sell among investors, or because of other businesses.

we just enjoy the market trip should. because every movement is an opportunity to gain profit. like when free fall yesterday when we sell and now buy again, of course our assets multiply

We all know that bitcoin is volatile and this is coming from a little value of price but because of bitcoin well known  all over the world I think this is not going back to 1000 USD due to many people wanting to support of bitcoin like us. right? so we don't lose our opportunity to get a huge profit we'll just continue support to bitcoin so that it will not come back to lower price again.... just updated the price, yesterday the price will probably 2,000 usd but now we a good development of price I think it is 4,000  USD and above updated 11-28-2018

The price is driving by some big whales. I think they are trying to put the price lower and they will buy. after all, the price will rise and they sell.

isn't it already the nature of crypto currencies and all crypto currency coins and it's one of the risks in investing with crypto currencies, if before we start investing we already have the confidence and patience in investing

Shortage of volume is our biggest problem. As long as the volume is low there won't be really a good bull run going on. The trouble with volume is that when someone buys millions of dollars worth of bitcoin the volume goes up because people start to sell to get out from high prices and the price doesn't go high too much. It was contrary to this last year when rich folks bought bitcoin and small investors also bought bitcoin which made it sky rocket, nowadays whenever a big buy happens people sell to get out.

However when a big sell happens the price drops and nobody buys, they panic sell as well, which makes the price go even further down. If we could get a big huge volume injection into bitcoin somehow I know that the price will go up very nicely and we will forget all of this troubles, we just need volume.

Bitcoin has already fallen very low and is likely to fall even lower this year, but you shouldn’t dwell on it and study problems because of what it all happens, because we all know that this is due to the manipulation of the big players and they will decide when to stop the fall of bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market itself, so we just have to wait now and buy bitcoins who have not done it yet.

What other fall could be brutal that this, i don't think oil price have any influence on the price of bitcoin crypto and oil are two different thing entirely, the last time bitcoin boom, the price of oil doesn't pose any effect on it and now when it is falling it doesn't.

Investors will always panic as well as traders, and moreover, some of the people you see who are panicking and easily affecting the exchanges are traders who are trying to take the little pieces left and seeing what they can do with it by buying lower, so in a way, even when panicking as a trader, it is always about how faster you are in exiting the market at every point in time as we are all busy trying to make the first quick move and whoever makes it first will always be the one enjoying it later.

Moreover, there are so many other reasons as well, which includes the fact that we see people who do not have a clue or understand the market, but are just busy purchasing quick wealth, which will always be bad for the market.

Not only bitcoin's price are having a low price every coin in the market has a low value, that is why a lot of people are all waiting for their holdings to increase. I think the reason why bitcoin has a low price because there are countries who banned bitcoin that it causes to decreased it's investors.

I think bitcoin started to fall it's price down because since bitcoin reach it's price to $20,000 a lot of people started to sell their bitcoins and since china and other countries banned bitcoin it has a big effect on the decreasing of price of bitcoin because it lost a lot of investors.

Due to some irrational behavior of the bitcoin users they have sold out and they are not using it for transactions due to some reasons so now bitcoin is fall below $4000 and it is not a permanent decline after some time bitcoin big whales will again manipulate the market and this is not a low level currency it is a global currency and it will rise soon.

I think I agree with you that it will recover again. Because that's what it does, when the price reaches the very low price, there will be many buyers and that is the cause of the bounce back of the price.

what the actual reason nobody cant say i think. As its a decentralized currency so its depends on its users.When we heared a negetive news then peoples do panic sell. whales also trying to buy some btc at cheap rate by spreading rumor. Also some country banned bitcoin in their country is the another cause of  fall down of bitcoin.

Don't panic too much, this year bitcoin falls but if the fall of Bitcoin reaches $ 1000, I don't think that will happen. Be calm and patient, bitcoin is the main one in crypto and still has a future.

I think it is not related so much in trade war between the US and China. The downfall of the bitcoin was in the plan of the long-time manipulators. Now it is doing the right thing. We should watch out for sensitive times at present. Do not be too greedy and do not be too depressed, we should be calm.

Most of the Bitcoin users are in the 15-29 age group. These people want quick profits and are not ready to wait for two or three years. I would blame the recent crash on these guys.

It has nothing to do with oil price, Bitcoin is independent of all that and why are you still asking this same question? It has been discussed a lot of times in this forum so there is no need to start over again and start talking about it, you should have searched for it. The reason why the price is down now is because of the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) fork that lead to Bitcoin Cash SV and ABC. You can do your research.

when looking back, of course there are many factors that make the price of bitcoin fall. although there is a lot of good news, but the sport of bitcoin cannot recover in such a fast time, and now it is the case.

You know in every market, we are always busy as retail traders and investors, dancing to the tune of the whales and there is absolutely little anyone can do about it. They are the market makers, they move it based on how the market is, but in every situation of the market, they are always making the bucks whether we all like it or not, while we are just trying to anticipate the next possible move they might likely be making. Prices have not only fallen down because of institutional manipulation but at a result of greed in the market which we all know happened late last year and has now resulted to the market trying to tap out the weak hands.

A positive news need to be much stronger to impact the bitcoin markets. Anything like some government approves BTC payments or some big companies start accepting then we may see the trend change. We need to be passionate so that we may pass this hard time.

even though there is positive news, but the negative news has a greater effect for now, the current price has started to improve, but I am afraid this is only a correction before continuing the trend

Probably it is. It is very unpredictable. Things happened the way we do not really expect. The pump and dump happens without us knowing. But then we all need to hold and wait for the right moment to gain profit. It is very important to know or analyze the market always.

I think the reason causing bitcoin price to fall down is by banning bitcoin in other countries like china, that is why bitcoin lost a lot of investors. There are also false news spreading in social media in other countries that bitcoin is just a scam or a scheme to steal other people's money, that is why they started to banned bitcoin because they believe in those false news.

Yep, negatives news keep coming and we can't avoid those stuff. Hacking, terrorism, bad news about Bitcoin and stuff are the factors why Bitcoin falling down until now for more than 3 months.

The price of bitcoin can not always move only up! And what does the price of oil and bitcoin have to do with it? It's completely unrelated. What we see now is a correction after a long and rapid growth.
$ 1000 - your opinion no one disputes, but you should have a justification for this price.
Everyone has their own opinion and the price in any case will soon unfold, that's when we'll see who guessed the Bottom of this market.

There have been a lot said about why the price of Bitcoin and crypto market in general all went down. Back to a few months ago, a lot of people believed it to be because of the ETF that is about to be done soon.

Then after that, earlier this month of November when the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) fork was announced the price quickly went down from the price of $6000 to $5000/$4000 or so within an hour. So what people are saying now is that the price is down because of the BCH ABC and SV.

There has been a negative news everywhere and the positive ones aren't being recognized because they were covered by these bad news that keeps coming.

And these news drives the prices down so whomever creating or paying these news to came out can take the advantage of packing more bitcoins on their storage and prepare for the upcoming recover which they are aware would come. While taking the effect, panic sellers are rushing to dispose their btc's thinking that there will be no more reversal.

There is no relevance with the trade war between China and US and so as the oil price fall down. It has nothing to do with cryptocurrency market price because the market is being determined by demand of the investors or contributors who believe on the project. There could be some affected project with the stated reason but it is only that slight that it could not really even directly affected the cryptocurrency.

This is also my question because bitcoin market price fall down is really that huge and this is not normal I guess. But, for some the market price down is just normal and it could even fall down to 3K USD sharp which will probably going to happen. People with huge investments plays a big role on this market price down. I just hope that market will going to recover.

Not normal? I am asking these also but not the price but the people who are investing on Bitcoin and other crypto currencies. The roller coaster price changes is normal, you know why? Because you are investing in a volatile crypto currency and ever small transactions can make a change. People are happy seeing the price of Bitcoin pumping up to 5 digits but when it falls down people start questioning what is happening calling it "not normal". Bitcoin price pumps are not normal to start with so don't ask questions and make a move before you are too late. Bitcoin moves fast and if you will be not going with it's speed, you will be regretting it.

well bitcoin right now are still affected because of fork war in bch becuase of that many investor neither support bch or just netral in it so there is soo little doing activity in bitcoin market, and thats make circulation of bitcoin getting low and that affected on the price itself

The trade war between the United States and China is tense and it has hit our market. Whales have taken advantage of this opportunity to reduce the value of the altcoins and bitcoins. So we should wait until the price of Bitcoin is $ 3000 and invest in it.

but the fall of Bitcoin has many factors, one of the most users in various countries getting news about crypto bans which is a factor in determining the fate of the blockchain, but this is only a problem that can be resolved objectively based on problemsinternal blockchain that is making service improvements

a lot of the bitcoin factor prices fall because of what one of them is competing with alt coin because it has a market capitalization of under 10 million US dollars and the number of hackers and thefts in my opinion so I can't mention any factors I just mention and explain just that

Bitcoin price fall down because l believe it gonna explode soon for the price pump of bitcoin.l know every body will panic buying of bitcoin and even alts will pump.Crypto will rise up in the name of bitcoin,let's just watch it.

Anything could happen with bitcoin price because its depend on market. But looks bitcoin price right now already bounce after drop to $3500. Hopely 2019 is good year for bitcoin and the price reach highest price again

These are all due to never-ending issues, controversies, fake and negative news, and all other issues thrown by those who are trying to pull Bitcoin down. All these can have a big effect and impact in price fall. Investors seemed to withdraw and volatility can sometimes be misinterpreted. We Bitcoiners can be a media to spread good news and change the mindset of the public from their misconceptions about Bitcoin. Our unity and support can make a big difference on how people view it as a virtual currency, as a payment system, and its total functionalities on how valuable it is.

It is not out of place to predict, but the basis of prediction has to be empirical. All of us want bitcoin to come up to a reasonable value, but what should be of importance should be the long-term acceptable value of bitcoin. IMO, $10,000 for bitcoin only serve the interest of speculators.

ICO governments have begun to regulate.
Which lowered the demand for cryptocoins.
There are no prerequisites for growth.

It is not going yo go to $1000 in next 5 months. In next 5 months, you will see it again going to $20000 or so. The current time is bad because of a number of factors like existence of so many coins. With time passing by and so much of competition , useless coins will get wiped out on their own.

This is a complicated problem. You can understand that it is caused by bitcoin cash. It can also be understood as crude oil and the stock market. But I don’t think this is true. I think there is only one reason for bitcoin to fall, that is, the whales need Do this.

Price fall is not dependent in single factor, there are lots of reasons why Bitcoin crashes at times. Fakes news, banning issues, FUD, FOMO'S, having no creative decisions-making perspective and a lot more. These are some of the factors that can be considered why there is a wild swing of the market. I believe that these can be prevented if we are aware of how this technology works, be educated enough to deal its nature, be on the look out of what are the trend, and be more responsible.

but the most significant impact is that the price of bitcoin falls because of the many negative news everywhere concerning the good name of bitcoin, so to restore the name of the bitcoin again we all have to support bitcoin and eliminate the news

I doubt most of bitcoin users are 15-29 year olds, not a single chance. First of all, I am out of that bracket by a hair but everyone I know are out of that age bracket as well.

In reality most people who are interested in bitcoin could be 15-29 year olds but the real investors with money are not those people. First of all how much money can a 15 year old have to invest into bitcoin to begin with ? None. That is why most of the bitcoin users must be more like 25-40 year olds, probably even closer to 30-40 year olds.

People who are not old enough to retire and still think of ways to have easier retirement and also people who are not too young so they have some money saved up to actually invest into something like this. Careers take time to bring you some place where you can actually make more money than you can spend and help you save some aside, without a proper career ladder steps taken you won't have too much money.

A great news, but bitcoin as of this time is getting lower and that is true. In my idea we need to create an organization on how to earn big and fast through bitcoin and let cryptocurrencies run in the community and it will use as paying bills and others. The success will always depends on us.

I think our market needs a correction and the whales do it. The value of the bitcoin is returning to its real value. That is the main reason and the economic downturn does not affect us too much. that's just an excuse.

Hopely its not happen. Its hard to imagine with others coin price if bitcoin price drop to $1000. Altcoin already drop 90% from highest price and if bitcoin price drop to $1000, it will be bad for others coin

There maybe some reasons why bitcoin and other cryptos price falldown, it might that there are lot of supply of coins in the market causing the low price value of coins , the investors are waiting and observing to the market price value of coins and are on hold, there could also be manipulation of large scale investors about the price of the coins.

It doesn't fall anymore but the simplest explanation is that there are times when sellers outweight the buyers by a big margin. Since the market doesn't have a huge volume it is easily manipulated by the rich people who would like to change the direction of the market.

Sometimes that happens all of a sudden and the price goes down very quickly like it happened couple weeks ago. Those rich people know what they are doing and they can actually afford to "lose" money right now in order to make money later on.

Their system works because they can afford this, we can't afford these drops whereas they know if they "lose" money right now they can cripple the market and make the price lower and pick up more bitcoins later on and wait for another increase. Do you really believe this is a coincidence that ETF's will start next month? No. They have done this and picked more bitcoin up so they can profit after ETF's start.

I agree. We cannot really predict when will be the pump or the dump. So we can stay at hodl during the time where the market is red. We can say that there are lot of circulating news, negative news today. It highly affect but there are also other factors such us newbies who are easily influenced by negativity.

we have to get rid of the hackers and eliminate the unclear and negative posts that bitcoin should be going up but many who are not aware of the bad ways to make a bad impact on bitcoin because of the cost of bitcoin falling

It is because people tend to do everyday transaction and it happens really happens. This is how cryptocurrencies behaves and we should always consider it as a factor. This was already happened many times and we know that it will surely get back to to its right track.

First of all, no one knows for sure. But here are a few reasons at play:
Supply: Roughly every 10 mins, 25 new BTC are issued ("block reward"). At ~$230 per BTC, that's ~$830K new BTC a day (25 x 6 x 24 x 230). As many miners sell most of the block reward to recoup the cost of mining, for bitcoin's price to remain constant, these new BTC have to be absorbed (=bought) by market participants.

of course it puts pressure on the market
but this stuff
main reason - ICO governments have begun to regulate.
Which lowered the demand for cryptocoins.
There are no prerequisites for growth.

Anything could happen with bitcoin price. It could be drop to $1000 but it also could be increasing to $50k in next 5 months. Its hard to predict bitcoin price these days because market volatile very high. Better hold it for long term and never sell it at cheap price

reaching 1000 USD, then chances are the altcoin price will also drop dramatically in other words the trading volume for cryptocurrency will also decrease and cause many people to panic who start selling their assets with large amounts
this incident will not be left alone by the whales, they will make a thick fortress that prevents BTC prices from falling below 2000 USD

bitcoin fall down because of panicked traders... it should be back to green shortly

price fall is very dependent on market participants, if demand falls and supply increases automatically there will be excessive stock, this will certainly have an impact on prices and a decline in prices, but if demand is more than the supply of goods there will be a scarcity of goods , this is very little demand and the supply of goods is too much so prices continue to fall, but we can predict that at the beginning of the year there will be many requests for bitcoin, especially from developed countries, which can cause price increases.

I think the news is still speculation, I myself think that it is very possible that prices will come back down, see how many people are sure a few days ago, they think that the bottom line is at $6k and will not go down more than that, when panic selling comes all the walls will be destroyed, so my suggestion is to remain cautious and stay alert

Actually i sold every BTC i had before ( AUGUST).
that is why i love the fall of the BTC price in the market.
I got the time to buy back everything or even more.
Now i am focus to hold them until it rise again. ithink 12-15K will be a good target for the First quarter next year.

that was your lucky when able selling bitcoin on higher rate at that moment.maybe if you buying bitcoin right now you will get doubled and off course it would make your profit bigger.

I don't think it's possible, if bitcoin goes down in $ 1000 some holders will buy it too. About the war between US-China rather than they have already negotiated and until now the issue has not had a major impact except the interest rate increase in Argentina. I'm not so worried about that, I just think about what I will do to deal with the situation and the crypto movement.

I think the main reason for now is the low volume, we are really falling down because no one wants to buy at these prices, even though the price is low people are still scared that it might go down even more. Why would anyone want to buy during the peak of a bear run when they can buy on the start of a bull run.

Maybe the price will go to 6 thousand in a day and when that happens you will see more people starting buy because they think it is going to even higher prices, when prices start to go up than people start to reinvest in it, but for now it looks like it is not going up at all and why would anyone invest into something they know that won't be going up anytime soon? Hence we should be waiting for the bull run to come to us and when that happens we will be rallying behind it.

ETF, BCH fork and all the things that has been happening lately. Bitcoin has proven to survive challenges like this, and this is less compared to what it passed through in the past years. So I’m very sure it’s going to get back to the top and price will increase. Altcoins like ETH and XRP will rise with it, but I’m not sure of others.

Yes I think elite members or group of owners of cryptocurrency monopolizing the market are the very big reason for this market price fall down. Probably they are being greedy for now which relatively making dirty moves after promoting bitcoin and now making and harvesting for their efforts in the promotion and making bitcoin hype.

I agree its not easy to explain why Bitcoin price is keep falling and also nobody knows when it price to rise again. So I think its better to wait for its comeback, and have patience all the time because sometimes it takes time before the price increase again. Also no one have idea if when its going to rise or to fall, so the best thing we can do is wait for it and keep believing to  Bitcoin.

The trouble we have right now can be overcome easily if we can change the mindset of the public. I mean the easiest way to make "I think bitcoin is going up" in peoples minds (people are worrying it might go down even further right now) is making the price go up back to 6.5 thousand dollars.

However since we can't do that ourselves we need to find a way to bring more money into bitcoin somehow. Now ICO's are doing what they can to get people pay them for something, how can we implement that to bitcoin? There is no simple answer to that and I don't know what would work but if we can convince whales that bitcoin is incredibly low right now and worths a look that would be great.

Now how can a whale look into bitcoin? Well if he trusts what he is buying, how can he trusts what he is buying? He trusts where and who he is buying from. This is exactly why Nasdaq ETF will be crucially important and we should try to take this to mainstream media everyday.

Despite its positive results in the previous few weeks, bitcoin is taking a hit amid a price manipulation scandal.

The US Justice Department suspects traders are now manipulating BTC prices, an illegal practice in regular markets.

The cryptocurrency world is regularly suspected of facilitating nefarious deeds, beginning its journey to popularity as an anonymous currency to trade for drugs and paraphernalia on the Deep Web.

However, the cryptocurrency market may now be moving to more ‘white-collar crimes’ as a criminal investigation is launched.

Though I am surprise to see the entire coinmarketcap going down because of BCH fork, Last year fork was always a good news, it was because of Bitcoin forks that we experience bull run last year. Even with what is happening bitcion will never get to $1000.

Nobody knows why Bitcoin price is still falling, and many of us are disappointed because of the current situation, that's why many people make own prediction about price rising. For me the reason why Bitcoin price is falling because of many people are holding their coin, but since the supply of Bitcoin is only limited only, possible it will come back and rise again because the demand is rising.

:
in my opinion the price of bitcoin is falling because of the many bitcoin scammers that aim to get big profits.
and this is very detrimental to bitcoin and its users.

as investors we should know the risks we will get in investing with crypto currencies, that is, we cannot predict for sure the future development of crypto currencies will be like what even bad news can affect the development of crypto currencies

Well, I think bitcoin price has nothing to do with the fall of oil price and trade war between US and China. It's because the number of seller is bigger rather than buyer, that's of course influencing bitcoin's price. Besides, many people nowdays are investing for short term only, where they search for profits as much as possible than considering the value. I personally have no prediction, but even though the price is dump today, I hope it'll be better sooner or later.

before you invest, I think we know that with all the risks we will get in investing, one of them is the price and development of crypto currencies, because crypto currencies can change very quickly because of even bad news

Bitcoin price fall down for many of stakeholder raise bad issue about bitcoin, that what I ever read. It affect on the investor, they wonder if government or the entity ban bitcoin anytime so they take over their investment in bitcoin. However, I believe that no body knows precisely about it, people mostly just argue or say personal opinion about it because it is really difficult to predict the bitcoin price.

As far as I am concerned this downfall this year has nothing to do with the rivalry between China and U.S, this year has something to do with correcting the market and Bitcoin price in which the prior year's value was said to be wrong and inappropriate which it skyrocketed unexpectedly which we can unnatural way for this cryptocurrency to grow in value.

The price increase is strongly influenced by some of the country's main policies, if there is a large country that expresses its support for bitcoin, it can be ascertained that the price will increase, but if bad news can affect prices, the value of bitcoin is very unstable, but open up, then in the future the price of bitcoin will rise again, the influence of the news is very influential on big business people.

Although there has been a global economic crisis stemming from the fall in oil price; trade issues between US, China, Russia; fall in stock market etc, these factors contribute less in determining the price of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is far from centralization hence its value and price is determined by its users and traders on the market.
The fall in price of Bitcoin arose from panic sell offs after the miners hashrate caused a decline in the price of Bitcoin. Most of the investors of Bitcoin anticipated for bull market during this time of the year in order to make some profit for the holidays and thought Bitcoin will rise in price after it had maintained a steady price range ($6k approximately) for more than three months. This is one of the main reasons behind the sell offs and drop in price.

I don't think if trade war has something to do with the plummet because Bitcoin is not backed by oil precious metals or even fiat money. Bitcoin works independently with the community and we are the one that give Bitcoin it's value. One more thing is that since Bitcoin is a community based asset, therefore there is volatility. If there is volatility then we can expect ups and downs of prices anytime on the market.

Scammers and market manipulator are the reason why bitcoin price is dumping. If you can see, there’s no strong reason for the price dump of bitcoin and its technology is still doing good. This is just a result of panicking investors, weak hands of the hodlers and of course the whales who are trying to take advantage the emotion of the newbies. Hope that there will be no more dump, the year end is coming and we should start pumping the market now let’s be more positive on the last mont of 2018.

I think for people who are worried about the changing prices of bitcoins that are continuing to decline are those who are just starting an investment in bitcoin. At first they did not know bitcoin and the character of bitcoin, which they yearn the price of bitcoin will continue to rise. However, this problem is undeniable, bitcoin competitors are not a company or an ordinary person, but many countries are still loyal to reject the use of bitcoin and this is a major influence on price decline. Unlike someone who chooses long term investment, they already know the previous bitcoin and characteristic previous bitcoin price.

Many time bitcoin have drop but could back and recovery to higher price, but why on this year bitcoin never could back and cross to higher price? whats wrong with bitcoin and why bad situation of bitcoin never end, I hope bitcoin could back and cross above $10,000 again.

The trade war between the United States and China has affected many countries in the world and our markets have been affected by it. We should see this as an opportunity for us. The investment will now not be wasted. The price of bitcoin will increase in 2020.

so many rumors about this, but in fact panic sell is the most effective thing that makes the price of bitcoin down now. well, but right now we just need to be patient until prices rise again.

I really can't analyze why the cryptocurrency market is falling. This may be the way the cryptocurrency market grows. The cryptocurrency market may have to fall until many people give up and then whales start to buy in large quantities.

I am not so sure that is the case, people are treating the current decrease in the price of cryptocurrencies as a great mystery, as something that no one knows why it is happening, but there have been several traders that have been predicting that the price was going to go down, they did not saw enough demand for the price of bitcoin to remain that high, and they were right the demand is very low and if there are not enough people wanting to buy bitcoin then the price needs to go down.

I think the fall in the price of bitcoin is currently caused by many triggering factors, one of which is the amount of negative news that hit Bitcoin from those who want to take advantage there or from parties who are true sentiments towards Bitcoin, but the most influential in my opinion is because of the occurrence of hlaving day, and if we look at the history of bitcoin halving day is indeed always followed by a fall in prices but it is recovering and even skyrocketing several years later

I don't know why ( people are considering "trade bots" as one of the culprits of these massive bitcoin bleeding. (please enlighten me on this one). For me, the reason behind are whales who, like us are actually in the look out for the next bull run. For now, they are collecting bitcoin sold from Panic selling, keeping it to sell for later. We cannot blame the present economic market why this is happening because it dos not have an effect on crypto. what we can do right nbow is just to wait for something big to happen. Do not allow these whales to take advantage of every bitcoin you have. It is now or never.

besides, news about etf has not been realized until now. which decreases trust. thus few investors invest their funds because most of them prefer to sell their coin assets

Bitcoin cash hardfork have big effect for bitcoin price drop and fall, last time when bitcoin cash have finish for hardfork make bitcoin price going down under $4000 for last price about $6000, its why make bitcoin have lower price.

You can't analyze why the market and the prices are falling?

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are well known for their volatility. Their prices are quickly changing the reason why there are a lot of times that it can move, maybe pump or dump in a single day. The price is falling since the investors are panicking and they are selling their Bitcoins and other cryptos instead of holding or buying again.

dumpers are dumping coins at low price so the price is not increasing so keep wait for just some more weeks the price will increase... happy trading will come soon

I think the price of bitcoin goes down because of the scam coins that promote their coins and to reap huge profits and then run away. Don't be afraid that the price of bitcoin continues to fall, while we still use bitcoin, then bitcoin will continue to be valuable, let scammers sell bitcoin they have, and the price of bitcoin will return to normal again.
If you are not trapped in an altcoin which leads to a scam that only takes advantage of one party, then you can be sure the price of bitcoin will not decrease because there will be no more bitcoin scammer results.

A lot of people are using, trading and investing on Bitcoin and other crypto currencies so we can't control what they are doing. Instead of being pissed to these "dumpers", just make a strategy, a way that taking advantage of these dumping price. For example, buy a good amount of Bitcoin that you can afford, the price is low and it is great to invest now.

You are right, there were people making these predictions.

Hope bitcoin price goes to $20k in next 5 months. If bitcoin price goes to $1000, it will make investor run from market and people will not trust cryptocurrency anymore. Hope that will not happen

I don't think that bitcoin will goes back to $1000 and the oil price has a relation to bitcoin. I do believe that the value of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency will rise again.

Actually I believe it Bitcoin market do that contorl people,so how people do not buy Bitcoin then how Bitcoin price going up?? So I have to seen in this fully year 2018 Bitcoin buy&sales lot of Decrease and I have read some articles for my Twitter account some bigger investor already leave it of the Bitcoin market.i Don't think it fake or true news but it is the main reason Bitcoin price will increase if again supply can be increased.

The cryptocurrency market itself is a bubble feast, the bubble burst is very normal, the market will precipitate for a long time and then the bubble will continue to move forward. This is the rules of the game in the financial market.

indeed it is our belief, that bitcoin will surpass the highest price last year, but I don't think it is for the near term, because the price has gone down far and requires time to recover before breaking the previous high. with the confidence that grows from each bitcoiner, I'm sure it will bring great strength

Yup it is and they use to make such prediction accordingly to the market value. When in market more people start buying bitcoin then price rises automatically but when people start selling then price falls. So mostly price rises at the end of years and I hope same as last few years price of bitcoin will surely recover the market value.

No one can really say why the price of Bitcoin continues to fall.
 One thing I do know is that Bitcoin as a decentralized virtual currency has the feature of being volatile.
So price swings is not a new thing.

I don't know if there is a direct correlation with the price of crypto currency and the price of oil and such. But i do believe that we might see a longer bear market in the future. We might even see bitcoin dip to almost 1.5k USD. But i think we might see more favorable movement by 2019. Then again, i might be wrong.

Rumors also play a big part in the panic selling which lead to crash in the market and prices keep falling down. Anything can easily fall but to rise do take time. So patience is absolutely key and another thing is that one should do their own research and then decide if to believe to rumors or not.

So far, the speculation that I have done is right, the price of bitcoin will stabilize at a price of $ 3xxx. but, so far, I don't expect the price of bitcoin to drop to a lower price. well, even though there are so many things that make bitcoin prices go down, but I still believe the price of bitcoin will still rise.

What is your strong basis to make bitcoin will down to 1000$ again? Because I don't think that it has a connection with the oil price fall down now. All I know so far in the coinmarketcap about in bitcoin, it was controlled by the manipulators where at any moment they can able to increase its value any time they want it to be.

This is a non-benign market. The bursting of the bubble will inevitably bring about a huge disaster. Many altcoins will disappear in the disaster. Only a very small number of people can make money in such an environment, and most investors have chosen to watch the cryptocurrency market instead of investing, so the bitcoin decline is very normal.

My opinion is...many people dumping the coins at low price and actually one more reason  is bitcoin price is decrease 30% once in a year when the piece is increase 70%... so there is no need to worry about price just hold coins for some more days... the price will definitely increase...

consider a market correction. the market will restart again. then it will need time to regain market confidence.

being optimistic, the market will survive and hopefully will thrive for in future.

It is my assumption that the growing likelihood of a world-wide financial meltdown is causing the the BTC selloff currently driving the price way down.

Large players wanted to be in BTC before mass adoption. They know that a worldwide financial collapse is likely to delay, by many years, the widespread adoption of BTC. I think in time, these crashes will cause an influx of money into BTC, but certainly not at first.

The price of bitcoin has not been that low since segwit was not activated, so I find it unlikely that we are going to see such a low price, the price of bitcoin is unstable and can move sometimes in a very erratic way but the price of 1000 that you are expecting is out of the question, as soon as the price went anywhere near those levels the whales will buy all the bitcoin they can.

well, it can be said that this is a tough year, and for every bitcoin user, or cryptucurrency must feel the decline that is happening now. in fact, at present, there has been a decline in several large coins such as bitcoin, and eth. well, we don't know how long the bitcoin price has dropped, but now we can't say that we are safe at the price of $ 1000.

In my opinion. Bitcoin prices fell because the biggest owner of Bitcoin sold large amounts of assets so that the supply of bitcoin in the trading market increased while the demand for bitcoin did not increase. so the price of bitcoin will continue to fall. and the price of bitcoin is also influenced by the conditions of the world economy.

Many cannot accept the fact that it is volatile and make them panic as the price fall. This big dip makes them afraid to lose much and then sell on the market to cut losses though they already lose rather than holding the coin. There are lot volume of bitcoin in the market which make it cheaper. This coin would definitely increase, just wait for that.

Please not compare cryptocurrency with oil cause i believe both are completly different. I believe bitcoin will stay strong despite the bear market that happening in this year. Many big company are trying to build a good ecosystem such as bakkt, nasdaq and also fidelity. I believe the reasons they build a company related to cryptocurrency cause they believe this market will developing and thats means its still profitable to invest in crypto and also there is a lot of potential institutional investors.

Don't compare with only one person there are many people who sold the coins in the market. Due to market fluctuation and a lot of fud, the price went very low in the market. Due to a sudden increase in the price is also one of the factors to decrease the price.

Actually in the previous times it was not hard for the price to start rising but nowadays because of the long time dump and frequent dumps people are disappointed and worried and they do not come again sooner after they sell. Once they start trusting the crypto again the value will rise higher.

I think crypto is different type of market than stock,commodities,oil etc. Bitcoin has great potentially. It has fall down too much but still stable on the level of 3000+. This is the last month of the year going on usually we can see a bearish momentum in this time.  I am so confident the market will move soon on the next year and even it will not fall down on 1000$. So we have to be patient and see the market.

most of it occurs because of our own behavior as market participants, we do not realize that the buying and selling activities that we do affect the supply and demand balance where supply and demand are triggers for rising or falling prices of a commodity, and when prices fall correction then this will make some people panic and sell their assets directly this will make the price experience a deeper correction again and of course this will again invite someone to sell panic and the price will fall even deeper, that's the irony of the domino effect of selling panic

Having it down isn't a question at all, we encountered such thing for many times and it seems to be normal in any form of investment. Meanwhile, we just think of its huge dump, this might be the big opposite in market trend since we have also a huge pump last year(as we remember). Even we moan everyday and shout, still we it can't affect the trend. Only we have to do is to wait the market recover itself.

Bitcoin price movements have nothing to do with the fall in oil prices, the reason that determines the rise and fall of the price of bitcoin itself is only because of demand and supply in the market. for now the fall in the price of bitcoin is due to reduced demand in the market and not because of following the fall in oil prices

right, with the decline in the level of trust in bitcoin, or even for those who have large funds waiting for the lowest price, then during that time the price still falls. and oil is not the cause

Because of Low money and low company so that we should have a to work so that one day it will increase up the price and then we should wait bitcoin increase up.

I think that bitcoin will definitely rise in the coming future.Bitcoin now a days is a bit down but it has the potential to rise up and create new records.The market of bitcoin will definitely rise.The users of bitcoin are also increasing day by day so it is expected that the price will rise.Digitization is going on and bitcoin is the most popular cryptocurrency.It has the largest number of users and it is the most expensive digital cryptocurrency in the market.

I look at the root of the market problem, which is that there is more crypto sales from current purchases, where many investors and coin holders have begun to despair and they are trying to sell frantically at current prices. Increased sales are not followed by purchases, so crypto continues to fall and this is bad for all. but today has started to increase even a little and is this a new passion for increasing crypto prices, hopefully this is a good sign for all

Yesterday's hash war was the main cause of the decline in Bitcoin prices. They have managed to make panic and the altcoin market will respond in line with the price of bitcoin. but you are right the market is slowly improving and the market is green now. let's wait to the moon.

Basically we don't know whether it happened or not, but don't believe it by attaching the issue to bitcoin. Indeed, every issue that occurs in the world can have an impact on economic conditions, but I think the value of bitcoin that is down is normal because its users also make it happen.

The prediction does not seem to make much sense no matter how much I think about it, the price cannot go that low, there are many more people now and more money invested in the market than when bitcoin was worth that much, and I do not see either how the price of bitcoin is connected to the fall of the price of oil or to the trade war between the United States and China.

I think the fall down of bitcoin does not affect from the trade war between US and China. It is the investors who manipulate the high and low of bitcoin value.

is the price of bitcoin also influenced by world oil prices and the trade war between China and the US? in my opinion these two things have nothing to do with the price of bitcoin  ::)

for me the price of bitcoin is unpredictable, but for me
Of course, bitcoin will go up and I'm sure it will exceed the previous price. Bull season is coming soon, we just need to be patient waiting for good prices.

Bitcoin, even though it is the first currency on the market, is a rare asset that actually does not have an official development team. That means that there are no pending updates, revisions, or changes made regarding some obvious shortcomings that the BTC network seems to have. The frequent decline in the market seems to kill the general buzz that most crypto fans have at the end of 2017 before. This is most likely because many cryptocurrency has dropped significantly since December 2017 and January 2018, including Bitcoin that has lost more than -66% of the total value in the market since mid-December 2018. Previously the highest trading at any time was around $ 18,000 per one BTC, there is a strong possibility that Bitcoin will grow further in the following months. In the case of last year's hype around the New Year's repetition, which may be more likely, Bitcoin can at least break the value of $ 7,000 temporarily towards $ 8,000 based on current trends and 2017 mass surges, in that way taking at least part of the lost value. What might be the biggest concern about BTC is the fact that there are no regular network updates, while disguising it as a blockchain-based tool that is rather expensive for the monetary value of trade. However, the potential to increase Bitcoin is still a strong possibility in 2019, because it is still one of the top investments in the blockchain space.

the rise of bitcoin is highly unpredictable, trade wars can make bitcoin rise sharply, because currency wars can change the use of dollars that turn to bitcoin, this can lead to a rise in bitcoin, lower oil prices, this can also cause large investors to divert their money to bitcoin, this can also increase the price of bitcoin, so that all predictions can change from time to time, nothing is certain.

Some of the people are announcing fake news about the Bitcoin that it will die. I think it is the main reason of price falling. Besides, we don't hold at the time of price falling and panic sell is the another cause of price falling.

Yes, sometimes the price is based on the news we get from the different sources. Sometime even whales will manipulate the market according to their needs.  Even fluctuation may easily affect the price of bitcoin.

impossible but that will only happen after 2021, where bitcoin itself will lose its prestige around 2022 - 2023, for the next 2 years, bitcoin is still worth it to have
I myself don't really understand whether the oil and gas economy affects the BTC market or not, but certainly the BTC community is still interested in BTC's presence, including traders who still want to earn money through cryptocurrency asset trading activities

for now, it seems like price development depends on the news that appears. well, right now, the news that appears tends to support the development of bitcoin, and this makes the price of bitcoin and other coins slightly up. well, this is a pretty good thing.

I don't see any reason for the price to fall down from where it is trailing right now. In fact, I am expecting the growth in user base as well as in the price in the coming months and we can certainly expect such growth in this year based on the track record of price movement during the last couple of years. I am not extremely bullish but this year is going to stabilize and improve the situation as we have already experienced a correction in the year 2018.

I think the hype of bitcoin is over or maybe on its way down. This may be the reason why its value keeps falling and this event is not rare because this happens also in some investment which I forgot.

I think because the price of Bitcoin will not always go up, because trading requires the price to go down to go up again, so I will not be as worried as you feel due to the current decline in Bitcoin prices, let's always think positively about the price of Bitcoin.

This is because a demand from the community is declining and an issue that is happening a lot now makes people think again when they want to make an investment

2018 was bad for investors who has been holding since long but for me this is best cha Dr to buy some coin at very cheap price of almost 4k dollars. Price falls only for panic selling id we will not sell our coin I am sure the fall of 2018 will be recover so fast so don’t be a seller till end of 2019 just try to buy more.

When we are thinking about the Bitcoin the valuable increasing my prediction for us but it will go to the opposite direction getting lower value so we cannot predict as much we expected but I don't the exact reason for why the value of all cryptocurrency will be in the difficult situation but I definitely hope the future will change a lot of things to the cryptocurrency field.

I think this is a natural thing and usually happens after halving day, but I think it will only happen while bitcoin will recover soon and can even reach the highest price, besides because bitcoin day bitcoin falls also because many people who commit crimes such as fraud which lures the lure of potential victims to get extreme profits but in fact the victims suffer losses, this makes the community's trust in bitcoin come down and helps reduce the price of bitcoin in the eyes of the people because it is used as a fraudulent tool.

since early year cryptocurrency market hit by fud and negative news without stop.and this accident make investors scared about its future.some of them start selling their asset.

We only heard such things even before and isn't unusual thing for now. The mean concern of the people is to see bitcoin continuing to grow as they expected to much and they are absolutely wrong and disappointed.
Isn't bad to feel down and be disappointed as we all have feelings, but to control on it is very important thing we should learn and to be strong.  

Investors are not convinced in cryptomarket potential due to its price falling since last December. On the other hand, it can be an intentional price dumping to allow big investors come in and have a kind of monopoly on market.

Many things or factors that can make Bitcoin fall this year,
1. The influence of the world economy is also a cause,
2. The current world war is also the biggest factor like the US and China,
now in this case people think 10 x in investing in cryptocurrency both globally with the current state of the world, all hope that in the future crypto will be better this year, especially Bitcoin.

I don't know where it will go, since Q1 of 2017 bitcoin didn't have power to grow. I mean after its has been reached the All time high price then just go down loke that.
I have analyzed that bitcoin's trend now is down, and it will be change after its can break $5k for sure.

There is no enough demand to increase price of bitcoin and we need to fresh news to see an action. We are in 2019 and it is time to forget bad memories of previous year. If people don't stop to compare previous year, we can go nowhere.

To describe how the Bitcoin will falling down will be a difficult situation to understand so be searching for the falling weekend do the thing that to be increase the value of Bitcoin it is the important thing that we have to do in this situation and it is a good idea too.

maybe it could also be the cause of the crypto currency can decline and in my opinion the intensity of the crypto currency trading and doing trading activities might also be the cause of the price of the crypto currency experiencing a decline

i never think bitcoin price will drop again around $1000.if it happen there must strong reason behind on it.such as government banned to access to site that related to crypto.but we hope it will not happen.

Yes, exactly negative news will make more noise and this makes many people start selling their Bitcoin at the higher prices. This makes the price of Bitcoin is falling continuously, so don't bother about the negative news it will surely damage your investment.

Lack of good news or positive developments related to bitcoin is also one of the reasons of its price decline. The continuing rejection of SEC for bitcoin ETFs can also affect the price of bitcoin along with FUDs which have spreading fake news in the internet. The trade war between US and China is over because there is already high level talks to solve the dispute. Bitcoin price will continue to face some more declines in the future before the steady rise.

There are so many factors that affect bitcoin price, one of this factors is that there are so many bitcoin that is dump recently on the market place, big amointvof bitcoin is sold and it really affect the market price, I believe that big whales is the only one who are responsible for the dumping of big amount of bitcoin on the market place , because I believe that no ordinary investors can dump that kind of big amount, I also believe that bad news or maybe negative issue about bitcoin also affect the price.

That's right because at the beginning of 2018 there was a lot of negative news that could make the price of bitcoin down, and also many investors who believed the news that made many investors release bitcoin at prices below the market price

The up and down of the prices is a problem but bitcoin should be stable in the particular pricing is my own most concerned.  If the price was stable throughout 2018 we could have see bitcoin been adopted but since is not stable we did not have much adopted.  Price falling down is not a problem to me.

Holding our coin for long term is best option. Bitcoin price fall because to many negative news about hacking or regulation and i think the price will recover again. Hopely bitcoin can recover the price and reach highest price again

because of the large sales that occur, then the decline in investor interest in bitcoin is caused because bitcoin has not had a functional value for an item or product.

The fact is that many investors are still hesitant to enter and buy because there hasn't been anything big coming so they can trust Bitcoin again. that's the main problem dude. so many investors are still reluctant to buy because of the trauma of falling prices too deeply. prices fall because there are still many doubts on the market.

Bitcoin still have price fall down and lower, have pass one year with bitcoin situation always lower price, how many time bitcoin always at lower and drop because many negative and fake news about bitcoin have hacked, last moment cryptopia got hacked.

too many drama in this market.event that negative news from government or from community it self.but we have to able face it quitely so would not panic when market crashing due of this.

your predictions miss, bitcoin will never reach 1000 $. is it possible that this is also the influence of the political year and also the events of terror in the world? it should indeed have an adverse effect on all investment assets.

My opinion is based on what I learned in Wyckoff's theory, and that is, if the price goes down it's simply because the Strong Hands are buying, they never buy expensive, that's why they are the big falls, since many people see that bitcoin fell, what they did was sell, for me from the speculator's point of view that's what happened. And the best thing is to buy cheap for sometime sell very expensive, that's what represents the smart trader.

in investing with crypto currencies, the risk that will be obtained is one of the price predictions that cannot be ascertained and if investors do not understand and understand they will panic and sell them with fear and maybe it can also influence the development of crypto currencies and in my eyes development crypto money depends on the investor itself

It's already 5 months since you predicted that Bitcoin price will be going down to $1k. So what now? Does it come to reality? It's a testament that nobody can see the future even if you have a crystal ball in you. You just spread fuds which is the main reasons that those weak handed people dump because they are afraid of what the likes of you are talking about.

Actually there are many things that affect the market, but what we often hear is bad news, so that the main reason for changing prices in the market is because of the news, we know the news is very easy to spread and make many people affected. so for now news is the most reasons make bitcoin price fall or rise

market moved or supply demand changes caused by fundamental changes.it positive or negative news release it will make investors thinking what should they do later.and it will make all cryptocurreny price moved.

I don't believe bitcoin will hit 10 000 in the next 5-6 months but for sure it will hit 7.000$, the bitcoin evolution at this point is positive.

Maybe yes, maybe not. For the present situation, this price increase is not real, but I guess 5-6 months are long time for markets with such volatile prices. We will just keep going and see what happens.

There were more negative price predictions around the market, but this didn't happen in the reality. We're experiencing good growth in the price of bitcoin from the beginning of the year. Now after several barriers it has touched $4200 and now it is down around $4100. With a new month getting started can expect more serious growth to happen by the falling days.

I think the decline in the price of bitcoin or other crypto currencies depends on the investor itself and no one can predict with certainty the development

Until now, bitcoin still didn't fall down until $1000 but as of now we still didn't see any improvements like $5000 per btc, I hope we can see again $5000 per bitcoin this year. Value of bitcoin still in dips maybe because bitcoin is not in demand as of the moment unlike before the year 2017 as we see it rise fast like a rocket because of that year we see a good value of bitcoin that brings big investors in this crypto world. Hopefully, we see it again this year.

I just read some speculations from a group now and you two had the same predictions. I afraid it will gonna go down that low for someone like me who invested at $5,000. Lol. Anyhow, if bitcoin started from $2 before, then it is possible that it may go dumped really down at $1,000. Indeed a good time to buy, just in case.

There are many reasons available for this question but the most important reason is if the price suddenly get up the people sell their investment and it will again reduces its value this will be the most important reason for price drop again and again.

You are talking about the price volatility in the market, that's normal and you have to trade according to that reality.
Bitcoin will dump and that's alright because it will recover and pump, it's been the trend, the only question is the timing, so that's your job to determine the right timing as a trader.

Earners will cashout and enjoy the profits that they've got, then re buy it back in a much lesser value, the cycle is just a continuous process you need to
read between the lines, if you want to earned from this market you need to master the skills of following the trend and have a good timing to buy and sell your assets.

Another prediction that didn't happened, I'm not good at predictions as well but OP's given prediction didn't happened. We're nearly hitting the $2k price when we have seen bitcoin got the bottom @ $3,200 and $3,100 for some exchanges.

This is the law of supply and demand. When people starts to sell, supply increases to the bitcoin economy again and value is something different from the price. Value of bitcoin depends on how big the demand is but so far I think it wouldn't change but the price is.

Why should the bitcoin rate fall if the price cars vn (https://www.xeoto.com.vn/gia-xe-oto) of oil falls? In my opinion, these events have no relationship with each other. If the price of an ordinary currency falls or rises, this should not directly affect the price of a cryptocurrency. The trade war between the United States and China, in my opinion, on the contrary, will increase the price of cryptocurrency. Where it is difficult for ordinary currency to flow or for payment of goods and services in ordinary currency, there will increase the demand for cryptocurrency and it should increase in price.

Last year the price drop because there was a lot of sells and buy orders was not so much and people start sell, but  this year i think the price will grow even if we have some preiod when the price drop a little.

I see that this topic is belong to speculations section but anyways, the price of the bitcoin increase a little bit then become stagnant again for a while at $5.5K. If you say thet the oil price is affecting its value, i guess its not like that but if the trade war is really the reason, lets see.

Bitcoin price still fall down because many regulation have made bitcoin is not become legal transaction and always have lower price, just waiting when bitcoin become legal transaction in many country maybe will have best solution for bitcoin raised up.

bitcoin seems to be standing alone, for now bitcoin is in the process of gaining public trust and also the government. therefore I don't think oil has any effect on btc. I think positive news about BTC can affect prices, moreover the news comes from the government

Bitcoin has a separate virtue of financial movement, never incorporate it with other valuable products like oil or whatsover. Indeed good news and better developments could help the price gain a momentum towards promising price increase. So far, the price fall due to some sellers taking an opportunity to benefit on their own. But fortunately it was a chance for other incoming buyers to hold bitcoin and store it until price begun to commence a huge value.

The only certain in crypto is price volatility, so the price could fall down again, that's normal....
I'm not in panic mode every time the price will fall because I've seen it a thousand times and I can even take advantage on it by find the right entry to buy.

every price reaction is an opportunity, with a downtrend, meaning our chance to buy, of course here because many sell it. but to buy, we have to put in place a good strategy, to be effective and not floating too long

As we know that there are currently too many FUDs, even on Bloomberg TV campaigning on cases of hack, scam and so on, this is what makes the market fall down and difficult to skyrocket.

everything have/ing their trends , bitcoin included , also bitcoin have bad rumor's that cause of price falling down , but i think back to 1k$ is hard

the price of Bitcoin falling don't because only the demand will be reduced through the investors when the selling amount will be increased in recent times this is a major reasons and there are lots of reasons available for this especially bear market will continue to happen this is also one of the reasons involved in it.

 I'm hoping for going down once or twice. But even if Bitcoin goes down to about 2800, that's 50% drop. Alts would then get hit much more. Thus little bit of BTC FOMO now would be a safer bet if you agree with me from my older post.

Well, you’re wrong because that didn’t happen and it also doesn’t work like you have said, price doesn’t just start to drop because the another stock has dropped in value. As you can see the price in this 2019 just dropped to $3k plus before taking a turn and going up to $5k plus, and I strongly believe that the $3k was the bottom. It’s not going down again, this time around it will continue to go up and that is definitely going to be for a very long time, trust me.

There are multiple reasons why Bitcoin price falls down. Regulatory uncertainty around Bitcoin remains as one of the main factors that hamper its growth. Mainstream media coverage, FOMO turned into FUD, rampant market manipulations are some of the reasons that affect Bitcoin to crash. Despite the dramatic flight, Bitcoin remains the best performing asset. As the market is evolving, there is a good reason to believe that Bitcoin has so much potential to bounce back and will eventually gain more investors.

These are old news,for now it doesn't affect the bitcoin prices and there is no dump happening.

Price of bitcoin reached $5000 in the recent days so seems we are already in the bull trend and just keep the trend going.

Oh this post is November 2018, price of bitcoin now is $5290 it's already a half of your prediction but I can say is this would not be to late to dream because as long the crypto/blockchain is still ongoing, there is a chance and possibilities to achieve the $10,000 in this year, so hopefully we can expect this.

Even though that happens but some people don't believe the price will last long to continue to grow because of the slow price increase every day. I still believe prices will continue to rise slowly.

Many interested parties influence and even manipulate so that they get profit from the current trend. Currently the trend is rising and hopefully, it continues to rise significantly.

Bitcoin price is rising nowadays and its dominance in this market is growing every day and it is already more than 54% of the total market cap. Bitcoin is a market leader and it is proved by its dominance. Bitcoin will not reach 1000$ in any conditions but if that happens in any unforeseen circumstances then this market totally collapses.

 I am agree with you, I think your analization of market will be true price will fall little more but then it will rise higher with time, as we know time heals everything so does the price, so if it is falling it will take little time to recover, let’s hope for good future since early 2018 I have seen dump now it is pumping higher so 5k dollar will become 18k very soon.

from the moment this article was written to this day, maybe more than 5 months have been predicted by you, but in reality, the price of bitcoin doesn't fall back to the price of $1000/btc.
so I don't think that in the future there will be a significant fall in the price of bitcoin to reach that number, with the occurrence of a trade war that doesn't have a bad impact on the price of bitcoin.

maybe this is the plan of crypto investors to take a big profit they get Bitcoin when the price is big, well maybe this is also the cause of the decline in Bitcoin prices because there is a lot of Bitcoin supply and this is also used by some investors to buy Bitcoin when prices drop

i hope bitcoin price could continue moved up and break resistance on $6091.if this level broken i am sure it will be bullish sign at this moment.curent moment investors very confidence with crypto market again and we have to keep support this till market totally recovered.

I'm still holding because I'm sure that the future of Bitcoin will continue to improve, especially when I buy when the price is around $ 9500, it's better to wait than sell with a loss.

Manipulators should not be trusted as they want only their own benefits, price falls because of whales who want the market to be down and they want to buy by giving us tricky lose, they scare us by changing the direction of the market but at the end only those lose who are lack of knowledge or who has no trust about their investment, I am holding.

Anyone here realize that Bitcoin price falls mostly because of FUD that perhaps few parties want to take advantages from it (by buying Bitcoin at cheaper price). If there no FUD was ever created, Bitcoin price should be more than 50K USD right now and maybe more.

very true besides crypto investors it is clear that bitcoin brokers also play a role in the movement of bitcoin, those who manage so that they can get profits in accordance with what they want. but whether prices will grow, seeing some at the moment it looks like bitcoin is already on track to move back up. just a matter of time. right the word above is the right time to buy and invest.

Automatically when bitcoin rises to more than $ 10K, it will have a good impact on the development of altcoins and will also excite many projects, so that ico is excited and many investors want to invest their money there.
at the moment bitcoin is rising to rise above $ 10K, hopefully it can be realized sooner.

You are gonna have good profit because you are sure about future of bitcoin, you know it will rise again so those who take this advantage of the moment at low price really wins at the end, I am sure you are gonna live luxurious life in future for keep holding for some more time as bull is still on the way but market is not fully bull, so keep holding.

it looks like we won't see $ 10k in the near future, because many people predict the price of bitcoin will still experience several corrections before actually going to the moon.

Still, everything is possible. Why cannot Bitcoin go up faster after it decided to stop or even to fall a bit? The demand in BTC is growing, and its currency is not going to lose its popularity.

Fud is an inseparable part of Bitcoin's downward history. some hack issues can also be a powerful weapon to reduce the price of bitcoin. like the binance case, I'm sure there are some people who exploit fud news to get a cheap price.

Bitcoin prices always fluctuate depending on market sentiment whether it is positive or negative. That will affect the price of bitcoin, for example in 2018 bitcoin gets a lot of problems from the policies of major social media companies that prohibit bitcoin advertising, or from state policies that harm bitcoin.
But now the price of bitcoin has risen again to USD 8306 because of the positive sentiment triggered by Facebook's policy of posting bitcoin ads, because this means that Facebook recognizes that bitcoin is a digital currency that is worthy of being owned by the public.

Bitcoin movement is influenced by trends, and the trend is caused by many factors, including the ones you mentioned. but now we can see that the trend has changed, and we just have to maintain the psychological order to get the highest price

we as investors should understand and understand the crypto currency itself and one of them is the price and development of crypto or altcoin currencies no one can know the development of the currency and in my opinion the development of the crypto currency depends on the investor itself

the price fluctuated time by time , just let it flow as long people really use it , i think there no worry about it f0r me

I hope the value of bitcoin will continue to the moon, because nothing is impossible ... if the price of oil falls affects the price of BTC?

I agree, as we noticed even before based on his history the price of bitcoin is not steady, its means it changing every-time. But this time bitcoin price is starting to rise again until the end of year, so its better to trust it and keep your btc first.

that's inconsequent opinion.when we said bitcoin price could drop and back to $1000k we have to tell the reason about it.anyone could spread their analisys, but not everyone could tell their reason.moreover current condition in market totally different with last year.today investors very happy to see btc price.

It could be a point.
But it can happen because this is the nature of the market. It needs to go down in order to crease a strong support that it is going to help it go even higher.
As the supply of bitcoin is going to be slowing down, the price will be increasing. So this is another point that has to be considered.

Now this thread no use for the bitcoin investors and earners.

We need to show the passionate over the bitcoin now. Go get trade become a trader. Since this price rally move up and up everyday. We can see the growth on few coins so please check careful while investing on altcoins. Good luck everyone...

I always thing my prediction will not been going to success at the end this time only it will reach essay good value so I think prediction is always important for the future but now I am happy to see the changes in between market and I waiting to gain my profit at the end of this year.

with predictions we can see the possibilities that occur in the future. although we are wrong, we can learn about it so that it will sharpen our predictions. big hope for this year that bitcoin can increase to the maximum, so it takes strength to hold it

Everyone has the right to predict about the price of Bitcoin this year and the following year but I have good filing about this year which will see Bitcoin continue to grow and grow every day.

in my opinion this is actually a good start if you go down before going up long
I myself now get a decent profit from yesterday's Altcoin transaction
and today still continues, everyone can predict where bitcoin wants its direction but in my opinion the most important thing is coin growth itself which is not affected by other factors out there

nly the bidders themselves regulate the price
if they sell more, the price falls and when they buy the price grows
it all depends on the information that people get

Maybe because there are some manipulators doing it where they can able to dictate whatever they want it to be, to attract more investors.
But your prediction in my opinion is not possible to be happen actually. Bitcoin already surpassed that price for 2 years already.

I agree with you that there is a big possibility that the increase will decorate this year's trip, and in my opinion there is no problem that the increase is large or small because with a stable market increase it will attract many new investors to arrive.

No one know about the price of bitcoin but I think it will be high in few months, we know in crypto currency we will have to face rise and fall last year price was down but now it has started to rise and it will continue rising till the end of 2019 we need to wait and see the price getting higher with passage of time, crypto currency needs patience.

I am not clear whether what you say (due to falling oil prices) really results in an increase in Bitcoin.
because it is clear that at this time the price of bitcoin is quite good and moving up. but what is your prediction that bitcoin will return to $ 1K? I feel it will exceed the predictions you say.

the market decline is over, and currently there is only a small correction, where prices will rise again. Bitcoiner trust plays an important role in following up decisions taken in the market

Both falling down and going up of bitcoin pricing is doing to the supply and demand created by buyers and sellers in crypto currency market. The whales that has good investment fund can also influence this demand and supply and becouse of the huge funds that are in the hand of individuals, they can dump or push the market up at will.

We can't see the real demand yet because the adoption is not big enough.
The market movement is affected by traders decision, with a billions of volume on a daily basic, it leads to price moving more volatile.
It can also be considered the price manipulation, when manipulation strikes, that makes an abnormal price movement (pump/dump).

The truth is that I do not think that the price of Bitcoin falls to $ 1k since the Market Makers do not consider this scenario, which is possible but I do not think they are capable of eliminating all the castles in the air of people, because many people They would disappoint the market and end up selling all their bitcoins.

Enthusiasts would not be so encouraged to defend it and it would be like delivering this technology of a decentralized nature to full control by world governments and banking in general.
That's why I believe that this fall is already possible in this time of market accumulation, because we will have to take into account the enormous wall of purchases that big investors will put in to protect their bitcoin investments, and this is not so easy, because they would be many souls, companies and strong hands that must be willing to sacrifice the goose that lays the golden eggs.

The current operators of bitcoin are helped by theories and financial education that has a lot to do with the operations in a normal market of any kind, it does not matter if there is a war, I think that if there is war and electricity options and the service of Internet is maintained there should be a total increase in the price of bitcoin, since it would be the only way to handle money instantly, but if they remove the electricity service added to the possible failures that may arise from the internet, I do not think that it will die , but it stays there saved in the digital platforms.

Take a look at the cmc and there you can see that the market cap of bitcoin and other cryptos are bursting . They are now billions and some are millions , followed by hundreds of thousands  . By that , we can safely say that cryptos are really indemand and will get more demand in the future due to thier usefulness   . To the question why bitcoins price fall down  ? Well it fall down because people are selling thier coins after they see a significant gain or increase  . Not to mentioned the whales are also responsible  because they maybe manipulating the prices .

No one can say for sure what moves bitcoin prices except sometimes a news event seems to directly impact the price but know this bitcoin has been declared dead over 100 times and many times lost 90% of it’s value and every time it went on to make new highs. I watched bitcoin go from under $3 to over $20,000 all while people kept saying it was a scam or the government would shut it down.

the fall will not be expected in the previous year but right now this time the Bitcoin is also growing better after this month we can see lots of changes from the Bitcoin so it will be the starting stage of development and if the Bull Run positively happens then it can be a better value in the future.

Hope you can now see that your prediction failed to come to fulfilment in reality except if it happens in your dream. I don't think that there is anything that will happen in the crypto currency market .

From the start of bitcoin it is really or has a nature that is unstable and it can maybe change anytime, so i believe that the bitcoin is just the same it is always rise and fall depending on its market condition. There are so many factors that affect the price of the bitcoin one of this factors is the negative feedback or news that can make everyone confuse on using it.

with the lack of bitcoiner, it provides a gap for big investors to play with prices, by launching negative news, it can affect the psychology of other traders to panic sell, so that fud happens, as they expect

Lack of what ? Knowledge ? Well not all are dumb to believe instantly on the news that they see online   and also not all news are legit but most of them are only hoax  but how can these provide a gap ? Negative news and fuds can surely affect the mood of other users resulting for them to sell or panic sell but this isnt the major reason on why the price fall downs  because like i said earlier , the number of users that do this are only small   .

So far, I feel the decline in Bitcoin is due to the many people who sell, or holders who sell at a certain price. well, but, I feel that this is a good development. there are many things that make crypto prices lower, even FUD can be the main cause.

   We are aware about high market volatilization and prices fluctuant, maybe it is the reason why bitcoin's value declining. At some point, it looks good development, because I overview its growth will arouse quickly. And I believe its value will exceed accommodatingly profitable and hit the desirable peak in near future. 

  Yeah now the increasing price is making people to purchase increasingly more coin as I probably am aware with the progression of time price will get above $20k so I am interested in buy, since intuition has turned out to be old when individuals has been stating price is down or it is getting now for me price has begun to rise and it will continue rising until it rises to the peak and become suitable for selling.

maybe a significant impact makes the price of bitcoin fall when there is frequent data leakage the problem is sure to make someone become disturbed in investing and anticipate losing they tend to sell bitcoin at the same time and the price is definitely going down.

bitcoin developers always work alot,they want to deliver best feature to their holder.bitcoin price will rise alot again if we could hold our  crypto assets.holding portofolio in bearish market really make us stressed and uncontrol in our emotion.

in my opinion, the fall in bitcoin prices starts when some of the popes sell their assets and make a decline in the market, which is then followed by those who cannot control their panic so the market continues to fall free.

therefore many people panic and cause the market to go down. at such times we are being tested to remain calm despite the opposite situation. but for those who still hold even buy, now of course they can already smile a little

in general, it starts because panic sell happens simultaneously. influencing factors are negative information, such as hacking, or rejection of something, even negative comments from various parties. but, at present, these things begin to disappear.

Are you newbie OP? Bitcoin price always falling down if you just notice it. In market, either PSEI, FOREX or cryptocurrency is always have changes. What we need to do is to adapt that certain changes so that we can go with the flow to the market. It goes down because there is a bad news and it goes up because there is also major catalyst that makes the price to surge. Just wait for your perfect moment and see that your investment will not burn but it will be increased.

all possibilities can happen it is one of the risks of investment with price crypto currency and the market no one can predict for sure and as an investor must have considerable confidence and patience

Falling down of the price in crypto market is normal because there's many reason to why that is happening like panic selling when the price of bitcoin goes up or down? Fud news every where, hacking and many more. But still people believe that all will be alright again and back on track.

1000 or below would be really difficult for some  reasons i don't want to post here. It's even possible  they tried to bring price below that level in the past without success.

Just quoting this not so old original post.

And we have passed more than 5 months since the post was made and we're even $8k now.

There's still a possibility for that kind of low but I'm not rooting for it. The chart shows that we're on uptrend.
