Bitcoin Forum

It's already been past halving, yet prices continue to fluctuate between the $9k to $9.5k range. I've noticed that each time prices try to reach $10k, everything "falls out" immediately. Is this a result of price manipulation by whales? At this pace, it's hard to believe that Bitcoin will ever get past $10k. Even if it does get past $10k, reaching a new ATH in price could be quite challenging.

Since it's been only a week after Bitcoin's third halving, anything could happen in the future. Right now, we're in a level of uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Maybe Bitcoin will be able to break out to new levels in price after all of this is over? Or will it continue to rise while Fiat goes down the drain? Whichever way Bitcoin goes forward in terms of price, many people will still support it. Fees are at an increasing rate, so we'll have to wait until everything goes back to normal (both in Bitcoin and the mainstream world) for prices to head all the way past $10k and beyond.

What are your thoughts? Do you think Bitcoin will ever get past $10k? ???

I've taken a look at the chart of 2016 halving and comparing it to 2020 halving, I think it's going the same. The price didn't fall that much and instead, it remained stable until several months have passed.

I think so.

I'm longing bitcoin and that's why I think it will be there again in no time.

Sorry OP but I think it’s a ridiculous question. Of course we’ll get past $10,000, stop being so impatient. It was the same in 2016, the halving is always a non-event, it takes a long time for the effects to take place.

2021 is the year we really fly up though.

Sure it will. But, takes time.
Back in 2016 on second halving none could ever imagine bitcoin trading for 15000 USD on 2017. but this happened.
Check my post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5226701.msg53903967#msg53903967 (BTC/USD Long-term analyze)
and compare the 2020 halving to the 2016 halving. You will understand everything.
Just like second halving the price will start downtrend movement and then we will see a uptrend on next year or last weeks of the current year.
I can't understand some new people worrying about the price. But, if you bought Bitcoins for a long-term or mid-term investment just HODL and wait for the uptrend.

As long as there is no huge dump in Bitcoin price, no need to worry about it when it reaches $10K. It should achieve $10K but still needs time and progress. Halving has just happened several days ago, don't too rush to expect another bullish. If you learned the previous halvings, it also didn't bring an effect on the price suddenly. Even there was a decline after the halving, yes it is very possible to have a correction in price. Moreover, before halving, we have seen a bullish or big increase in Bitcoin price. Personally, I think the price will move up after the next several weeks or even months. So, just wait for the time while keeping our Bitcoins.

Normally, bitcoin halving effect dont usually take over crypto asap but as you said bitcoin reaching a new ATH seems to be challenging and the reason why the dump immediately when approching the $10K price could be the manipulation of the whales or mining difficulty level but it too early for us to know what actually make the market swing between $9K - $9.8K.

As long as I've been on this godly forum or crypto twitter shthole for that matter, I've never seen a good explanation to what and why happens on the market. I'm sure it's not a sophisticated way of thinking about it, especially if you trade (I don't btw) but at this point BTC is a matter of faith and patience to me

Actually Bitcoin is performing way better this time if we compared it with 2016 halving. It is looking stable and has been maintaining 9k to 9.5k price range. Considering the global economic situation it is performing way better than the stock markets.

So keep on holding and start accumulating more as Bitcoin is still below 10k. It will surely go beyond 10k but no one knows when.

Every halving year have different movement but  we always see positive side whenever this occur and I see it performing by maintaining at the current price so maybe after the stability we may see a price pump and reach to $10k we might not know on when this gonna happen but for sure this is 1 step closer coming.

Stock market is aching right now due to economic upset so for sure those people trading stocks who knows bitcoins will go here since it gives promising profit while there stocks is badly bleeding.

I take advantage of the post to ask if it is a good time to buy bitcoin ?. Thank you

I guess bitcoin still did an amazing job when it's price didn't fall during Covid pandemic. Bitcoin proved again that it's better than fiat currencies, especially in situations when we really need currencies' stable or growing value and not rapidly falling one.
I don't think we need to wait until everything goes back to normal because that won't happen soon and we will need some years to recover from upcoming higher economic crisis. If you mean relaxing of restriction in "going back to normal", then that will happen soon.
There wasn't any significant price rise for a while during last halving that occured in July of 2016. So I feel positive at the moment.
To sum up, bitcoin didn't fall during pandemic and keeps stable price after halving, right now I think bitcoin is doing very well and to be fair surpassed my expectations.

Honestly wait 5 years without checking the price, you will be amazed.

Very less number of people would do that, probably the long term investors as most of the users in this forum are looking for monetary gain occasionally that's the reason there is a huge chaos whenever there is a pump or dump. I just hope Bitcoin remains immune from the ongoing pandemic wherein we have already had enough number of negative posts in the wake of COVID.

The golden rule is to buy during dip.

As for the $10k, yes, it looks like this is a big wall in front of us. We have breach it though, but the problem is that, we didn't sustained the run and the price keeps stalling around the $9k barrier. Although we have a minor correction in the last two days, it looks like we are green again. So bulls are going to make a push to 5 digits, perhaps it is just a matter of time. There could be some news in the future that might help the cause to reach $10k, who knows.

Don't forget that we even reach almost $15k early this year and that's not possible that we hit back again at $10k or even more.
Besides, we are rallying at $9k-$9.5k, quite a few more steps will surpassing the $10k but kinda not so easy, and seeing the resistance is really not strong enough to push it. We could think that there is price manipulation happening around.

But anyway, halving isn't yet showing a positive market response. Let see how the market looks like one month after halving.
And possible that we gonna hit the wall once again.

https://i.imgur.com/3UPSI0n.png
This is what it looks on the chart.
Started around February 2020 when we reached above $10,000 and fall after it, we always touching $10,000 or almost of it yet falling down again.
So, we will consider the $10,000 level is strong resistance there that Bitcoin need to break.
For sure, once we will able to break it again and stay there for weeks, we can see again the $13,000 or above just like what happened in 2019.

I am confident bitcoin will get past $10k again this year, though we can see that the hype is already over but based on the past trends,  bitcoin is bullish post halving. We might see a lot of price movement, a possible pump and dump again but in overall the market should be bullish.

With people thinking of investing more than using bitcoin for transaction, I guess it will help a lot.
And though we never really know, but let's just predict here based on our instinct, and my instinct says bitcoin will rise.

Obviously this is the result of the spreading virus and declared as Pandemic so maybe we may consider letting
the market make its way to whatever meant for this moment because the economic
crisis is the witness how hard people can provide money now and surely
they prioritize finding Food before any investment thing.


There are Barricading happens couple of times now and not letting Bitcoin passed even $9,900 mark so for me?
it will be harder to taste 10k$ again this quarter.

---

But the world is now starting to recover and the spread of virus is slowing,meaning in the next months we will
see some light so lets see in 3rd quarter what will happen.

I know you sound sarcastic but that's ridiculous  :D, you might be missing a lot if you're planning to do that. 5 years is long enough to see a lot of changes, you might not be able to sell at the peak before 5 years, or worse case scenario, you'll miss the ATH and will wait for another year to reach your price appetite base on the price history in a span of 5 years.

Still the best strategy IMO is to just hodl when you're totally uncertain about the events that could affect the price movements.

Definitely, I believe we will ever see that again this year, actually I my prediction this year is that bitcoin will stay at $10,000 or over by the end of the year.
I even though that with the halving that happened this year it will bring some bullish sentiment and it seems like in the past few days, bitcoin is always bouncing back everytime it's dump.

There's no hype going forward but a lot of experts believe that 2021 is gonna be a good year for bitcoin which I agree if we will see more dominant uptrend this year and I am betting on that to happen. So my bet is at least $10,000 this year -  :)

The issue is not about bitcoin get to $10,000 but will it ever remain over $10,000. Bitcoin got rejected close to $10,000 several times this month is not an issue. I believe that what has been happening after halving will happen and bitcoin will soon it serious upward movement.

This is a very important milestone before bitcoin can have its ideal growth. Many bosses will be more interested in Bitcoin because many companies can't operate after the pandemic, they need a new quality investment channel. It will completely surpass and stabilize above $10,000.

I think that will be only temporary because we will see bitcoin price will get to $10k someday. No matter the price can increase in the short term or long term, the price will be there, and we will make a big profit again. The problem is we need to have more patience to wait for that time, and we need to prevent the panic that can happen anytime when we see the price is up and down.

No, that's not caused by the Whales. The recent dump was happened because of the recent transections from a 11 years old bitcoin wallet address which was supposed to be a wallet of Satoshi Nakamoto (https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-unfazed-by-50-btc-transaction-from-satoshi-era-wallet). But some block researchers said, the old wallet wasn't owned by satoshi. It might be a wallet of early miner who wasn't owned by satoshi. You can read this article: Satoshi Nakamoto Didn't Just move Bitcoin  (https://decrypt.co/29575/satoshi-nakamoto-didnt-just-move-bitcoin)

Great point there mate because that is certainly correct that for How many times Bitcoin had already passed that 10,000$ price but the
problem is just after an hour it will starts falling again and Back to $9,000 level things that very frustrating specailly for
 the people that has been waiting badly for this Halving to happen.

Wrong Bitcoin surpassed this 10,000$ and you can just check that in here https://www.bestchange.com/ since Best change has
 good trading volume and fair compared to other sources.


Well not in this moment and time mate,since we are still in burden of this COVID19 and until this virus spreading the world?bitcoin
 Halving will remain unseen and value may remain in this trend this whole year.

I think that for the next opportunity, the price of bitcoin can survive at the price of $ 10k, and even develops better than its achievement at the pump yesterday. other than that, the conditions are quite different now. halving has happened, so I feel that bitcoin will be stronger to survive above the price of $ 10k.

"ever"? I mean you gotta be joking right? EVER? That is like saying will I be ever able to breath again, it is like something very natural and will happen very frequently. 10K is basically nothing in bitcoin world, we are literally just there right now, with just one 10% increase which is nothing to bitcoin, it would be above 10k once again.

I am very used to the 20k question because that is over double what it is today and I get why people are wondering will we ever become over 20k again it makes sense, but questioning 10k is ridiculous. Of course it will be over 10k, of course it will be very quick as well. Unless something major happens bitcoin will be above 10k very soon, probably this summer too. By 2021 I can see it going even above 20k as well with all this less mining rewards.

I agree with you, but do you think everyone will be waiting for so long time?? That's impossible mate only big whales will deal with such stuff in my opinion also they used to manipulate whenever they want and we have experienced it as well. Halving was a real shock to many of them and I believe there was some hands of big whales on twisting the price, however I will take as a opinion and try it 8)

Bitcoin will get past $10k for sure and that too in just a couple of months, as the halving has passed and also the Corona virus scenario is also looking good as in most of the countries it is getting under control, so it is just a matter of a few months when the economy starts to grow again and the same will also happen for bitcoin.
Every time bitcoin price does an unexpected move, people start blaming whales for doing market manipulations, but in fact the market is always and will always be unpredictable for normal people or non traders.

If we pay attention before halving, the price of bitcoin is difficult to redeem the number of $ 10k, even I saw that $ 9.9k was the highest at the time, but all of that fell together and redeeming the price of $ 10k is difficult to achieve, I don't know if this is a manipulation of a whales are toying with prices at the Covid-19, but I think positively if it has already redeemed $ 10k it will be difficult to fall because someone already believes that if it has passed that number bitcoin will continue to grow to reach the new ATH because halving has been passed but we wait until this fluctuation is completely normal again.

It's crazy to think that you buy something and you will not check it for the span of 5 years without knowing nothing since if happens you buy on the year 2017 then you will possibly cry out loud when the pants drastically dumping so badly, But if you are a risk taker then maybe its good to try since provably by 5 years you will get rich if good things come or you will lose everything when market collapsed again.

Bitcoin is still trying to hold on to support $ 8800 - $ 8900,
hopefully we can stay here and are ready to continue the increase up to $ 10,000 again  ;)

Waiting that much is not really easy for everyone. You have to realize that not that many people who got into bitcoin is super rich, most of us do not have enough money to even make an investment properly because we run out of money with one bad thing. For example, during this pandemic period I was expecting the price to be so so much lower than what it is right now only because this could have made a lot of money poor.

90%+ of the world lives paycheck to paycheck, we make some income, we spend it and there is almost nothing left. Sometimes we do have a bit at the side but if one bad thing happens to us, we run out of money and increased debt once again and work towards paying it. At the end of the day you can't expect these people to wait for 5 years before they could sell because something could happen that makes them sell it.

Bitcoin is struggling to pass 10K due to the weak hands, they keep dumping their coins for small profits I regular intervals whereas whales already made their profits when prices hit the bottom due to covid 19 pandemic announcement.Now the price movement is completely organic and no price manipulation is involved in my opinion.

Im not really always sure on tagging up covid pandemic with crypto market (maybe for traditional markets but not for this one).This is just a normal market cycle and we cant really just get those things that we do anticipate or wish for.

There would be always that bumpy ride which do really signifies that we are dealing on a healthy market.Well, manipulations is always there but as a crypto trader you should really know on how to deal things up for you to benefit out.

For now its good to see that Bitcoins price is playing between 9k-10k levels but we havent break out yet but lets hope that it would able to hold the support levels so that we can possibly shoot up and past 5 digit prices.

I mean that huge dump from 10K to 4000 region in few hours when covid was announced as Pandemic by WHO, it certainly not tied to the virus but that was used by the whales to make benefits for them.I believe that whales don't manipulate the market all the time then it would become predictable at some point so they always surprised us at an unexpected time with unexpected price movement.

It is not really hard for Bitcoin to break this resistance but quite hard to think about this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5249773.0.

$10k is quite not far from the current market position. We even surpassing it early this year and there is no possibility that we can't make it to happen again. Though it was obvious that volatility is getting stronger but then, it wasn't closing the chance to fo beyond that level. I was speculating to achieve this goal in the 3rd quarter, not this quarter since the miners are having the shutdown's issue which could affect the trend.

it will pass this year but will be the end of the year. Bitcoin's price has risen too much since the beginning of March and now it needs adjustment. Bitcoin halving events will have an impact on the market but will be slow. around this time the market will be flat or slightly falling to $ 8k, after which it can pump strongly at the end of the year. Hope the world will control corona virus soon so that the economy can return to normal.

So close but so far away, that can be said for 10000$ value.
Bitcoin price is always somewhere nearby, fluctuating between 8000$ and 9000$ but 10000$ seems hard to.cross.
At the moment it looks like we are having another small correction so in the upcoming period we will probably not see Bitcoin price crossing 10000$, market will continue to resist.

Have you taking sometime to review the high number of sell order been placed at the $10k price mark on most exchanges especially those with high liquidity and reputed per se. Most traders are taking profit at that price, making it impossible for the market to cross that price and that won't be happening anything soon.

The resistance can be seen without must effort in the chart. And like other have also mentioned, it's still too early to start judging, let give bitcoin sometime as it never does disappointed and don't think I'll be doing so anytime soon. Currently we're in the accumulation stage and thats is the best thing to be doing right now instead of debating on the price movement of the market.

I believe that the following is happening: when there was the incident that involved the general of Iran that the USA killed him, the whales saw the opportunity to manipulate the price, but when it reached $10,000 they found a great resistance that they were unable to break because there was not much buyers. Now with halving the same thing must have happened. The question is: what price we will see in the coming months?


It is likely that the price will start to increase a lot from the beginning of next year, I do not expect to see the price break $13000 this year


I had to pay $5 to transfer $40 because I wanted it not to take too long for the transaction to confirm... it was last week. Days before I paid a $ 5 fee, I made a transaction that paid a $2 fee and took a long time to confirm


if you ask me in a short time something like in 1 week, i will tell you that the price will definitely start to rise in a few months

Bitcoin price can go to $10k someday, but we need to be patient at this time because bitcoin price now still below than $9k. The trend for bitcoin price still at the downtrend but we need to wait until tomorrow, so hopefully, the price will start to increase and break $9k. But if somehow, the price will get another dump, then we need to prepare to buy more bitcoin because that will be our chance to buy bitcoin at a low price. The bitcoin market itself seems not moving fast, and it tends to stable for a while this week. So we need to be careful about anything that can happen to bitcoin price.

Yeah, We can buy in this current price by using some part of the total funds. Also we can buy part by part in deep if bitcoin continuously dump. That would be the best strategy IMO. If not than we would regret in future for not buying in deep. Likewise someone who don't buy bitcoin at $3.8k and think that it'll dump more. Now they are regreting for the wrong calls. So every small dump is an opportunity for the wise traders to take part with proper research and knowledge of the markets.  ;) :D

If it tends to stable than we can see a small bull run for altcoin markets in the USD pairs as we see in the previous altmarkets. But it's quite risky to enter the altmarkets because of the sudden pump&dump of bitcoin. Let's see what's waiting for us.  ::) :)

Patience my friend.  Eventually, Bitcoin will get past $10k.  It already gets past to it several times and I am positive that Bitcoin will even reach those $20k mark again.  With the halving of the supply, the incoming influx of new mined Bitcoin is halved and if the adoption continue, we can see a slow growth of Bitcoin price.  We have seen the stability of the price of Bitcoin to a higher level than in previous years (just ignore the prices due to pump and FOMO).

yes it touches 10k usd many times and i think that the op already knows that too but maybe he mean to say when will price goes stable and continue to climb over 10k usd   . i myself sometimes ask the same question alot of times before on my own head only though    . but thanks for making us feel motivated by explaining why price can do it   but why you said we will ignore  price pumps  ? or i guess you mean to say dump but fomo is bad and obviously not beneficial

Yes, Bitcoin surely will get past the 10,000 dollars. It’s just a mater of time. Yes, it’s right that it’s few days from halving finished and we can not see any big move. But did you forget about where the btc come from?It was around below 4k dollars. And now btc is struggling to cross 10k. So it's a very big profit for them who invested in around 5k dollars. And now they are getting strong their profit. Some big whales also try to get the profit and re-buy in low. And this is the main reason of struggling to cross 10k despite the halving passed. But it surely cross 10k in near future that I am thinking. And when Completely cross the 10k then we might not stop BTC untill a huge gain in price.     

One of the questions that had been bugging me.

$10k is just there, a little bit of push and BTC will reach it but yet a wall is stopping it.
$12k is what I thought to be the next new bottom. It didn't happen.

Yeah, patience will be the answer.
Waiting for Covid-19 to end and then letting the halving to marinade.  ;D

market is returning now and Bitcoin climbing from the fall of 8k level now goes back again at $9k and still growing.
Maybe there are chance that before the end of May at least we will see another 10k passing,though there are no good news to support this
yet the economy of the world is not standing straight even the damage of pandemic are there.

Lets see what happen after this month but what i am sure is in 3rd quarter there will be some good changes and maybe we will see
the greatness of Bitcoin and the whole market again.

I was also thinking the same before the halving, but I realized something :

1.) Post halving surely has slight pull back.
2.) This year's halving is different than the past two, specifically with health issues and global recession.
3.) Bitcoin was struggling to break through the resistance level.
4.) Pre-halving hype didn't really worked out.
5.) Miners is still in difficulty adjust period, hash rate drops, mempool is flooded with a lot of transactions and higher transaction fees.

The list goes on, but those are just some of the most notable reasons.

Lastly, covid-19 might be staying for quite a long time and we'll be gradually adapting to the new normal.
Something, that a technology like Bitcoin could take advantage of, since almost every business will be dealt through online transactions.

FOMO for today is not applicable and people should not think about that since it's better for now to do day trades than holding especially with the market stability, maybe we cannot see a price stability by these days since we are still on crisis but what good thing is we still able to climb at $10k and been stable on $8k price level. Maybe it's best not to expect high so that we will not ask to much even if there's a halving occuring.

Actually, I've always said that 9k to 10k doesn't take much at all, every time it's moved to 10k this region is almost negligible in terms of volume, so you're right in that sense. There isn't a wall to stop anyone from charging up there. But I think the fact this is becoming more apparent is what's taking so long to 10k this time -- them buyers are prepping for the 10500 wall this time, not all the ones in between here and 10k.

Let that marinade set in.

and even if it took a little more time like till 4th quarter this year?it is still reasonable because the Infection of the Virus is still around us and affecting the economy.

exactly the point here,we have dropped upto $4k last march so having this 8-9k value now is not that bad because thats 100% growth already.
whales is always in the situation and just Buying and selling to Bag money,how i wish that the amount of Bitcoin can be owned by individual is limited in some amount that they cannot Hold a hundred thousand or a million bitcoin each account.

in fact, the price of bitcoin is very difficult to survive at a price of $ 10k. Well, right now the price recovery at $ 9k is back. if there is an increase in prices in the near future, it is likely that the price of bitcoin can reach $ 10k in a few weeks or months.

But at the Price of $10k bitcoin always face trend reversal and many a times it gets bearish instantly after reaching $10k. So if the Price rise more than $10k then I can say that bitcoins can even reach a higher limit, even more than $15k also. But first of all it would have to pass that $10k price point which seems very difficult to reach and break right now.

We will break the resistance in the coming months, the price is testing the resistance levels for some time and it is a matter of time it will break those and try to reach the all time halving valuation. I am not a believer that for the price of bitcoin to rally this time we need more adoption, it all depends upon the big fund houses investing their money and the price will rally when that huge push from these financial institution start pouring in the market.

We were close many times recently to 10000$ but then in the key moment price pulls back.
Seems that resistance is rather high and price keeps fluctuating somwhere between. Although it seems very possible I don't think that Bitcoin price will break 10000$ in the next month or two, it might happen that we have to wait for that until the end of the year.

I am very sure Bitcoin will pass $ 10k and it will probably happen in Q4 2020

btw, I noticed that Bitcoin is not affected by Corona, Bitcoin is very powerful even when Corona really caused a huge panic at the beginning of March, Bitcoin is really safe haven like gold

Resistance is at high levels once the price touch a barrier and $10k is the hardest psychological barrier for every trader. Selling post $9500 make the price drops to $9100-9300 and sometimes under $9k.
I always feel that summer isn't the best period for bitcoin price but I think we may pass $10k barrier soon. The main problem is to keep the price above it...

Again price starts to recover after the small dump which occur right after the halving and we are about to end Q2 in few days hope there will be some bloom on the bitcoin prices in the month of June,so we may expect a surge in Q3 or Q4 but for sure...

Patient,  patient, that's all we need now, we will eventually get there, we have not yet feel the effect of halving, history will not fail us I'm confident we will eventually reach $10 k hopefully on the second quarter of the year, I'm very bullish that this year we are going to experience another all time high, but we still need to be careful of FOMO.

We'll see. As long as the pandemic continues to spread fear across the market, crypto prices won't be going anywhere. COVID-19 needs to end first, for us to experience a fruitful economy in the crypto space. At least, Bitcoin has been programmed to be a deflationary cryptocurrency. This gives it an advantage over traditional Fiat currencies subject to manipulation by central banks worldwide. With a block reward halving every 4 years, prices should become higher than what they are right now. It all takes patience, as nothing happens overnight.

Whales may have been manipulating the market all this time, but miners will truly "pump" the price of Bitcoin once they're seen in a position that will lead them to huge losses in terms of Fiat. $10K or not, Bitcoin will be here to stay for a very long time. My guess is that Bitcoin will be able to reach new ATHs once TX fees "settle" across the Blockchain. No average person would like to use Bitcoin for daily payments with such high fees. This results in decreased demand for the cryptocurrency across the market. While the Lightning Network promises to bring instant transactions at virtually zero fees, it's not a definitive solution for scaling Bitcoin. At some point, the block size needs to be increased in order to boost the capacity of the entire Bitcoin network. Only then, people will demand Bitcoin more thoroughly resulting in prices higher than $10k across the market. I hope that in the upcoming years we'll be able to experience $100k per Bitcoin. It'll be a wonderful ride for me, and anyone who has invested into BTC early. Just my thoughts ;D

I see now Ethereum has begun to show its movements so that it has grown rapidly but until now bitcoin is only still stuck at the $ 9.5k figure, it is also difficult to achieve, is this not the right time to make a rally?

Or is the pope planning something in the crypto market? but I don't fully believe that whales can control the market.

staying at $ 9500 is very good for Bitcoin, because Ethereum in Btc pairs can go up if the price of Bitcoin is stable, and Ethereum can go up 2x maybe this year, I prefer altcoin over Bitcoin for now

It has tried to move beyond the $10k price today, it failed but that shows a good sign. Do you know why? Because, in order to pass some prices you have to first try them, try to make them go higher and higher and if they fail they just fail but when they come back they have less to work on, less wall, smaller amount of sellers, less bitcoins to buy to go beyond.

This is why whenever price tries to go above a certain limit but fails, I find it amusing, because that "failin" meant to me that it will try once again and this time it is going to be simpler, hopefully going even beyond. If anyone wants to buy bitcoin, right now is the best time and put up 10% profit and put a sell order there, you are going to regret not doing it because when the price breaks over $9.6k levels, it is going to breakthrough and be over $10k as well, which means close to 10% profit to all holders.

Good thing that we do have alt options for us to take but somewhat it depends on an investor or trader to take it on because not all the time we would really depend in btc because we do know that
there are sideways or tanking moments which means earning in short time wont really be that feasible for us to take.So in other hand we can deal up with alts for the moment which do had significant move.About the plan you've been talking, no one really knows on when btc market would make a move this is what makes hard to make a decision when the market is moving sideways or
stable like situation because we cant tell if it would head up or go back down.

at least the price of bitcoin is more stable between $ 9k- $ 9.5k, unlike before, which experiences a rapid dump. I'm sure if bitcoin will soon reach $ 10k. we just need a little patience

at the moment, the price of $ 10k is not imagination. however, currently, the price is very close to the price of $ 10k, and even with just a little pump, the price will reach that level. for now, we just need to be patient and prepare a strategy when the price of bitcoin reaches that price. besides, I feel that the price of bitcoin can reach a higher price in the near future.

Bitcoin again reached at $10K level, we got some good pump today which I don't expect to happen.
As usual, bitcoin is being unpredictable but it's good to see that we break big resistance and we are trading at $10,000 now.

Per Binance, the 24hours high is $10,380, and it looks like bitcoin will stay at $10,000 for awhile., I'm observing the altcoins movement as well.

Your wishes became true and the price is above $10,000 in the previous 24h and until now. The main thing is to remain stable and avoid rush selling or else the price will not last that long in 5 digits!

There is some doubts since of the pandemic and there is a chance that bitcoin will somehow struggle this year but as far as the year goes bitcoin is doing well, therefore as long as it can maintain its current phase there should be no doubt that bitcoin would go for a all time high before this year ends.

It is obvious that at some point in the future bitcoin is going to go above 10,000, this is simply not the right time for it, just yesterday we saw a huge surge in the price of bitcoin that allow it to go above 10,000 but just a few hours later the price went back to where it started, there is simply no strength in the market for the price to reach those levels and maintain itself there, there are many reasons for this but the most obvious is that the pandemic has created an environment in which many people are not ready to take significant risks and instead they are preferring to keep cash on hand just in case things get even worse and that kind of environment is not precisely the best if you want to see significant growth in an asset like bitcoin.

Yesterday, prices got past the $10k mark. It took a little longer than expected, but at least, Bitcoin is back on track. Patience is key in order to obtain good results. Impatience will lead you to make wrong decisions that will make you regret them in the long term. Weak hands will always sell Bitcoin due to their lack of faith in crypto, while strong hands will buy and "hodl" no matter what. With Bitcoin's fluctuating prices on the market, it's possible to make some profit in the short term. Most people are focused on the price per coin, but not on the profit opportunities price volatility brings with it. Even if Bitcoin heads back to $7k per coin, anyone can buy at such levels to sell at a higher price. There's really no way to determine the true price of a Bitcoin.

If all goes well, I'd expect Bitcoin to reach a new ATH in a couple of years from now. It's best to focus on the pioneer cryptocurrency's developments instead of what the mainstream media says about it. Most negative reactions about Bitcoin on the mainstream media, has encouraged people to sell their coins on the market. As long as you focus on Bitcoin's utility, nothing else matters. One Bitcoin will always be equal to one Bitcoin no matter what. By using Bitcoin directly without depending on Fiat as a unit of account, the crypto economy would be a lot better than what it is right now. The future of Bitcoin looks bright as Fiat continues to be debased by mainstream governments. Just my opinion :)

I thought today in this thread there will be more comments  ;D
The price has reached 10k two times - both bottom and top. In general, such a movement is very similar to a game against traders using margin trading. Apparently soon we should see a really big movement (I do not presume to predict in which direction).

in fact, I think a little bit that the price of bitcoin won't last long above the current $ 10k price. maybe it takes time. well, yesterday, the price of bitcoin exceeded that price, and the price suddenly returned to the initial level. it seems like many people are targeting to sell their assets at that level.

It just did.

The price decreased immediately so I don't know when will it happen. I think it would pump again the next few weeks I think it will not be that sudden like what happened when it crossed at $10K. It is been on the talks that a recession will happen so I think we should be ready and be aware of that too. We should make a good strategy to do something about it.

Last 30 days and we are 8% profit, we are moving up we just need not be hurry if you bought two weeks ago that 8% profit is still big, it's not about the $10,000 level but small profit from your purchase in the bear market or when there is a dip, it's important that you buy when there is a dip in the market.

People are talking about last halving like we are nowhere near the same levels. We are talking about from cents to dollars to hundreds of dollars there, which is not a big deal at all because market cap is literally 1/100th of right now and even lower, there is a point where its 1/10000th of the current stage on early days, which means its not really the same thing anymore.

Back then the whole market cap could have been 2 billion at most, right now we have seen 2 billion movements from bitcoin all around on a regular day up and down, which is why people fail to realize that not the same thing could happen. Of course, it could go up, that is simple because honestly there will be less coins sold every single day, that has to count for something in the long term, but do not expect to go up like the old days.

This is one of the main problems of the ecosystem - most participants only want to sell their bitcoins for a dollar at a profit. The rest does not interest them. Obviously, in such conditions, the bitcoin volatility will not decrease and I think this is a negative factor for serious development.

Most people that buys bitcoin only waits for bitcoin's price to get past $10K, so they could sell their bitcoins for fiat that there onky interest is really to get profit, not to use bitcoin as a currency or other interest. That is why it takes long for bitcoin to increase because people immediately sell out their bitcoins.

You cant please everyone and we know that majority would really aim for profits which is just normal even myself would really have that target in mind which is to make profits and at the same time i do believe on bitcoin tech and potential.Why would choose one ? if you can utilize its volatility to make profits? It might sound too harsh but this is what the reality we are taking on. There would be sellers and buyers which are the main
components of a market and sell-off on a particular level or price point is no surprise.What we need here is a constant or increasing demand but we know that this cant be achieved overnight.

The price of Bitcoin is always fluctuating and it is very difficult to say whether the price will go up or down so when we use Bitcoin we have to wait patiently Bitcoin prices take a long time to rise. Bitcoin pumps a lot once every three to four years. You have to work with faith Bitcoin has moved closer to 10 10k However, the price of Bitcoin is likely to exceed K 10K by the end of this year So we have to wait until we get to the next level.

The price of bitcoin already passed $10k this week but it was short lived and again it went below 10kUSD. There is a lot of resistance whenever the price crosses $10k and after a short interval it goes bearish and many a times we have seen it fall below the price from which it started climbing up. As a matter of fact a couple of days ago when the price reached 10K USD then after some time the exchange coinbase went down and also there was some technical issues with bitmex and the price suddenly crashed below $9k but settled at $9500. In these cases always p2p or decentralized exchanges are well suited as there are no central servers so there won't be any downtime and no inconvenience will be caused to its users.

To get past 10k it will definitely happen, in fact it has been achieved several times even though it finally collapsed again and also, halving bitcoin cannot be used as a trigger for prices to rise significantly quickly because even to reach all time high it takes more time after halving occurs. Prices continue to go up and down and of course to predict it correctly is difficult to do, but whatever happens at least the increase is definitely there and will definitely happen someday.

I don't think that the right question is if Bitcoins will cross 10000$ but if it will stay there.
Actually that did happen few days ago but that pump was very short and price pulled back very quickly. So, actualy the problem is that Bitcoin price can't break that barrier and grow further but always gets back again soon after the rise.
Of course that increase will happen, it always does because volatility goes in both ways but is there a strength to keep that direction.

It appears that there is heavy price manipulation on the market. Maybe whales are preventing Bitcoin from holding its position in the $10k range? If this keeps up, it'll take quite a long time before we'll be able to experience new ATHs for Bitcoin. One thing for sure is that this third halving has been a lot more different than past halvings. It could be a result of the negative impact caused by COVID-19 on mainstream markets. A gradual recovery of the world’s economy could trigger a massive boost in Bitcoin's prices after the demise of the coronavirus disease worldwide.

Once Bitcoin maintains a price of $10k per coin, it could jump straight to $20k in no time. It would be best to focus on Bitcoin's utility than price, in order to avoid panic selling at any moment. By the next Bitcoin halving, it's expected that the pioneer cryptocurrency would've reached new ATHs. As long as people continue to buy Bitcoin more than what it's being sold, prices will always be on the "green side". Let's hope for a positive outcome of the entire crypto/Blockchain industry in the upcoming years. Just my thoughts ;D

I will be taking those thoughts accountable since that is more probable than what I said.

Countries are slowly shifting into normal after months of lockdowns and quarantines. Still, there are those people that are having a hard time. There are businesses that stopped and there are those that will continue, I think it would be some time before the recovery of the economy and that also means more time to wait for the ATH, still that is good though since I would continue using some of the Bitcoins I have.

Provably we will see that and also not but for having these incident happening in the world I doubt we can see a close to the ATH, maybe their will be coming  for 5 digits price but that would be temporarily happening so best for these days is to secure the profit we can get since all development regarding on bitcoins is so questionable right now. Economic recover takes time and it doesn't mean it will take effect on bitcoins to.

I think in order for a bullish trend to appear and bitcoin to gain a foothold above 10k, some qualitative change in the ecosystem must occur. Halving is an ordinary (planned) event. Lightning has not been creating good news for a long time and its application is not as wide as expected. Bakkt was not a breakthrough due to the low interest of institutional investors. It is necessary to search/create something new.

And most likely at least during the short term it will be difficult for bitcoin to keep itself above the level of 10,000 dollars for each coin, because as we know the economic situation around the world is not the best and it is only bound to get worse by the end of the year, so even if the halving has taken place already it doesn't seem the circumstances will aligned to allow that to happen, but people should not get nervous about this it only means that you have even more time to get bitcoin before it goes up significantly in value.

This time, remember, be it very hard for BTC to conquer the $10k price tag for itself but that won't be its achievement alone because then, a signal flashing over the charts is showing that BTC could easily rally above $14500 resistance if 10k gets broken this time with complete push. I'm in a 10x leveraged position with just BTC0.003 and I believe this might give me at least 3-5x if the setup that I'm seeing on the charts - gets formed correctly.

$10k is very achievable for btc in the next coming hours, days or months. just look at the price right now in coindesk, its about 9800 and the trend is still going up. so $10k is just around the corner. if you are doing short term trading, you will gain for sure. but of course, your strategy on how to get your max profit on this.

I got sympathy for people who expect 3k , that is where the price was for a long time and even upto 6k its still a really good price but 10k is incredibly bullish price.   Even if we stay at 10k for the rest of 2020 its a great success and a stable price has benefits not obvious immediately but it allows a more easily transferred unit of value as it becomes known to hold.
    Growth in price represents volatility, when we see it rise alot it might encourage speculators and more holders into BTC but its not helping the backbone to BTC thats lasted so many years now.    We have to have a strong backbone to BTC for when real troubles arrive, sooner or later the QE and other 'stimulus' is going to wear thin and stop working then you have a reality where BTC must hold its own without constant easy dollars.

While 10k$ is a bullish price but considering that we are at Halving season i think this can be lower compared to what will be the price in the next months or next year?

Just like what happen in 2017 when people are too afraid buying at 5 digits value of Bitcoin and they all regret the decision because when the 4rth quarter of that same year Bitcoin price starts the Run and Hit the highest price Bitcoin ever had in December.so Lets not look at the price when buying but instead in the situation that may occur a Pumping season of the market specially bitcoin.

I'm very positive that it will reach the $10,000 mark, we are in a very different situation or scenario, the fact that Bitcoin is still moving up however slowly, is a hint that it is ripe to reach the $10,000 level, I like to wake that we finally reached the $10,000 mark, we have already reached it this year, so I have no doubt that it will can.

I think we could see a good price but as you said, it will not last for a long time.

With the long time not seeing a good price, I think people would be forced to sell their Bitcoins to get back their losses. We even saw that the price reached $10K and it doesn't last that long. Because of the pandemic, people are actually focussed on the price changes of Bitcoin since most of the stocks are affected and other investments too. We can't say that it will not be affected since we, investors will be the ones who will say if it is affected or not.

Completely agree with you, mate. We need something new and fresh in order to attract serious investors into Bitcoin. Once money starts flowing on the market, we can expect BTC to reach new ATHs in a blink of an eye. Since development is more of the same, people are not that much interested in Bitcoin. Right now, Bitcoin's value is focused on usability more than anything else. In these times of need, it's been proven that Bitcoin is a resilient store of value. Maybe in the future, Bitcoin will get nifty features such as smart contracts and privacy-oriented transactions via the use of sidechains? For what I know, additional features on the BTC blockchain are not necessary or required for its success. After all, there are many altcoins out there on the market each with their respective features and use cases for the mainstream world.

My guess is that in 1-2 years from now, Bitcoin will be able to get past its latest ATH of $20k per coin. Crossing $10k seems much closer from becoming a reality than I've thought. I've seen that Bitcoin has reached $10k at times, only to go back to $9.5k in price. It looks to me that whales are pumping and dumping Bitcoin for short-term profits. This is normal, as it's the way the crypto market behaves. Once the real demand from people in the mainstream world begins, expect Bitcoin to go all the way to the moon. I think that the constant money printing by the US' Federal Reserve, will simply make Bitcoin more valuable over the long term. Fiat will continue to be debased leaving people with less purchasing power over time. That's not the case with Bitcoin today. I'm certain that BTC's limited supply will have a positive effect over its price in the long term. We just have to be patient in order to see great results in the future. Just my opinion :)

for this year, the price of bitcoin has reached more than 2x the price of $ 10k. however, it did not last long. at this time, I still believe that the moment will return. it's just that, I can't yet think of its stability. I feel that the price of bitcoin will be stable above the price of $ 10k when the price has reached a price of $ 11k.

Reaching $10,000 is not anymore a problem this year, we have seen a multiple times that bitcoin reached that price.
You are right, the only problem now is the stability, which I think normal for bitcoin since it's very volatile, so maybe we can make some strategy to take advantage on that.

By buying bitcoin when it dump, this would give you a good way to be profitable, as long as you trust bitcoin of course.

Many times panic happens and bitcoin dip, therefore we should trust bitcoin every time it dip and buy it.

Yups we have been there for how many times this year only but did not stayed even for a couple of days.
All of us hopes the same that the cure or vaccine of covid19 will finally invested and people will go back to normal.

In that parameters for sure crypto market will finally taste the effect of Bitcoin Halving.

Present action has it keeping lows above 50 day average and also rising while doing that, I'm expecting a fall but the fact is the price continues to be quite stable on a possibly rising trend.   My speculation is its getting squeezed and running out of time but I could be wrong.

https://talkimg.com/images/2023/06/12/A5HOD.png

I think we push past the blue line like yesterday and get as far as the yellow line below, the idea being we have to revise lower pricing before we can regain prices such as 10k and above.   Not that I dont think BTC cant go higher but a stable base after prior rises, taking profit and taking speculators like air out of the price would consolidate BTC price.

It is very possible for Bitcoin to surpass 10k.
The price has been stabilized at 9k for almost a month. This means that we have a strong support and 9k and we are only going to head towards 10k in the coming months.

yes, it's very possible. it's just that we don't know whether the price of bitcoin can hold on to that price or it will only reach $ 10k then fall back. so far, I feel that the price of bitcoin can reach that price, but it is not stable. however, until now there has been no sign that the price of bitcoin can break through the $ 10k wall in a long time.

For what I've seen, it's not impossible for Bitcoin to get past $10k. Right now, it's an oddity since whales are heavily manipulating Bitcoin's price on the market. One needs to be vigilant in order to sell Bitcoin when it touches the $10k range. Once it manages to sustain prices of $10k for some time, there should be nothing stopping it from reaching higher gains on the market. At least, the third halving had a positive effect over Bitcoin's price in the short term. Maybe in the next 2 to 3 years from now, Bitcoin will be able to reach a new ATH. It's all a matter of patience in order to obtain good results with your investment.

Impatient people will quickly sell their Bitcoin, triggering a panic sell on the market. If there are more people selling Bitcoin than what they're buying, prices will go down the drain. Bitcoin's volatility may be risky, but it proves to be a great way to make profits in the short term. Considering Bitcoin's reduction in block reward every 4 years, it should become much more valuable than what it is right now in the future. Let's hope that Bitcoin never loses its value, resembling Gold in every way. Just my opinion :)

There is no sign for now as some whales are manipulating bitcoin price, there was a time it got to over $10000 some days before halving, but a whale move huge amount of bitcoin it of an exchange, the price really dropped to as low as $8200. This is also what has been happening so far to bitcoin. But, it is not yet late to see the results of halving, the effect can not be immediately, and it could later still result to bitcoin price increase. I just believe that in this year, bitcoin price will get to a price more than $10000.

Of course bitcoin will past 10k$ just be patient and wait that time. Many investors in bitcoin have big holdings but they have no worries because they know that bitcoin will goes up. So we must be wait for we get a good profit. Holding bitcoin now is the one good thing that we have made because I know bitcoin soon will goes up.

We actually surpassed that level but of course, the market is not yet ready so it goes down again. But the probability of passing that level in the next coming months is very high. People are slowly calming down owed to this pandemic situation and they are trying to recover from what's left on their savings. There's always hope so to speak. So reaching that level is not impossible.

Agree. Right now, there's heavy price manipulation across the market. It may take some time before we'll able to see steady prices well above $10k per coin. With some patience, we'll be able to achieve good results in the future. Personally, I wouldn't worry about Bitcoin's price as long as it's useful for the whole mainstream world. Decentralization/censorship-resistance is what matters above anything else. I'd expect prices to become higher in 1 to 2 years from now. The sooner the pandemic ends, the better it'll be for Bitcoin and other tradeable assets worldwide.

It's surprising to see how quickly Bitcoin recovered in price after the negative effects of COVID-19 on the mainstream economy. This shows us how resilient the pioneer cryptocurrency is as an asset that's completely immune against real world events. With its decentralized and open source design, Bitcoin may well live far beyond 100 years into the future. All in all, we're getting one step closer from grasping $10k per coin than I've ever imagined. Just my thoughts ;D
