The pandemic surely helped Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies be more widespread and I like seeing that there are many people that have understood the main benefits of it and they're keeping it as a store of value. Last year, 22% of the circulating USD was printed which was around $9 trillion. This clearly shows that the economy was f*cked up last year. The debts are now even bigger.

This is when Bitcoin was seen as a solution. Its deflationary and safe-heaven characteristics were recognized and everyone became abruptly bullish. Now I wonder, what will happen to Bitcoin once the pandemic is over? Once we'll live just like we did in 2019? It will surely have a big impact on the market, but I don't know if it'll be a negative or a positive for Bitcoin.

While the pandemic being over and brick & mortar stores opening up again would definitely be a huge net positive for the markets in general, it's not like going back to normal would undo all the quantitative easing that has occurred.

While going back to normal would definitely affect most US stocks positively, not really sure about bitcoin because some people might fomo back into stocks. Just a rough guess. I ain't selling though, as per usual.

People just like to link things to the recent occurrence, the halving and the US election really contribute to the bitcoin price they increased, it has been in that fashion since bitcoin was established, I believe if there is no pandemic, bitcoin would have increased to this extent. Like you said, bitcoin is a deflationary currency, that makes its price increaing as the world are knowing and using it. Is the pandemic the reason institutions are investing, is it the reason recent 2021 trend is resulting while more loan investors also investing? I think the pandemic is not as potent in Bitcoin price increase as people do say. So, expect nothing to happen after the pandemic, but if anything happen, I do not think it is the result of the pandemic, rather than how bitcoin is in which the price increase and decrease over time.

I would bet that bitcoin will stay the same or a much better outcome is bitcoin will grow more after the pandemic, the people knows that everything they own and know currently are fragile when a disaster like pandemic happens and as OP has said, bitcoin showed that it can help during the pandemic and people will pursue it further because they know that they can benefit from it and I believe that growth is the only possibility for bitcoin after a pandemic.

We are almost forgetting halving in hurry. Last year was the halving year and we know how it also happened in 2017. Pandemic had it own positive to the market because of the contact of effected fiat but I think that isn't the case now because reduction of cases and so many means of avoiding the spread including social distance.

Therefore it can't be all reasonable that covid-19 is pushing up the price of the market but big investors are in the market because of the awareness level of decentralized system and blockchain.

When the pandemic shed it's milk teeth, the expectations all around was that Bitcoin was going to plunge with the traditional institutions/economy, but that wasn't to be the case, BTC started quite an unexpected bull run from last year till now, I call it unexpected cause quite a lot of people believed the halving will have zero effect on the price of Bitcoin cause of the outbreak of the Corona virus, and that it'll prolly remain down till the pandemic is over.

Now that order wasn't to be, with vaccines pretty much ready and things looking set to return to normal, the FUD will surely but come again, as people do not know what to expect now, I think the events of the past year in the Bitcoin network should give more people the balls not to panic or be swayed by FUD. Having said that, I'd not be concerned about the end of pandemic affecting Bitcoin, but rather if institutional Investors will slowly leave the network when normalcy returns, however unlikely that seems.

Will we ever go back to that normal kind of living?

IMO, no. There will always be a threat of the same sickness to spread.
People will become wary of their environment or whoever they get near.
The same goes for the future of Bitcoin. They have seen the power of it and understand some parts of it.
Will they stay invested with it? A question that is difficult to answer since we are also unpredictable.
One day we want to support it, the next day we support another.

After the pandemic and while it being over, the US stocks can rise and the usd price can be increased against gold and some other assets. Because by starting of the pandemic the opposite of this happened. So, by pandemic being over I except to see usd price rising against some asset. Bitcoin is of the this assets, if nothing changes in that time we can have another correction after the pandemic ends. In the other hand, bitcoin was sometimes following the US stocks market, so maybe by increasing the us stocks index we can see bitcoin at higher prices too. However, since we are talking about bitcoin, there any new investors and companies starting to invest on it and this huge demand these can make the price stable even after the pandemic ends.

Bitcoin does not grow only during a pandemic because the growth of bitcoin itself has happened long before the pandemic even existed. So I think bitcoin after the pandemic will certainly be fine, and regardless of the impact I think in this market it has become commonplace for prices to fall so fast and vice versa.
Therefore, I believe bitcoin will do fine and vice versa, I am just worried that this pandemic will not end any time soon. Because from some news that I have found, at least there are still issues about the existence of a new virus and also the spread of the Covid19 virus has not stopped.

In my opinion the end of the pandemic will have positive impacts on crypto world. Once we know the worst is behind us and the recovery is in sight then there should be more capital coming into bitcoins. I would assume that quite a few people are just holding cash these days because they don't know how long the pandemic will last. I remember the empty supermarkets last year. Probably a lot of people hold cash at home.

The growth was slow back when there was no pandemic, there is clearly an effect in the prices when the pandemic hit. I do think that bitcoin will do just fine after the pandemic but I believe that after this, people will realize the importance of bitcoin because they experienced the pandemic and the growth will be more exponential after this.

Unless you can walk into a shop make a selection of goods, go to the counter scan their QR code and pay via Bitcoin (and the transaction is confirmed near instantly as is the case with the Lightning Network), then bitcoin's only real continued attraction will be with the speculative investors with a few thousand/million cash to spare that they don't mind parking for three to six months, then the novelty wears off and dump on the next unsuspecting investor.

I honestly think that pandemic has nothing to do with Bitcoin’s parabolic growth. Financial institutions are the ones who already see the potential of Bitcoin, and that’s why they’ve started buying plus the promising growth of DeFi and NFTs combined.

Whether if we are under pandemic or not, Bitcoin’s adoption and usage would continue to rise no matter what the price would be. Just saying.

I see it like this ....

Ok, before the pandemic, people drank CoCa~Cola every day, but due to the pandemic and challenges with the production of Coca~Cola ...they experimented with other cooldrinks and they found Pepsi ( A lot cheaper and less sugar ) ...so they switched to Pepsi (this is just hypothetical and explanatory and not actually like this)

So what will happen after the pandemic is over and millions of people have "converted" to Pepsi? Do you think they will go back to Coca~cola or will they stay with the (cheaper and more healthy) drink?

Disclaimer : The Coca~cola / Pepsi scenario is far from actual facts, it was just used to explain how "Fiat" vs "Bitcoin" would transition, once the pandemic is finished... I could have used Kodak film and digital cameras as an example, with the same result.  ;)

There is a difference with Bitcoin. The people in your example switched to Pepsi, because they found out that it is better than Coca-Cola. They would switch to pepsi, whether they were on a quarantine or not. On Bitcoin, what made everyone buy it is the trillions that were printed last year. People didn't just wake up and said "Hey look, a safe heaven!". They realized that the dollar was rabidly inflated by a lot!

The pandemic is mostly the cause of those 9 trillions. Thus, it's the cause for Bitcoin price's abrupt increase. But yes I think you're right, even if the pandemic is over, it won't affect Bitcoin that much.

[Note: Pepsi found difficulties with the pandemic too, not just Coca-Cola]

Maybe from an economic point of view there will indeed be a little change, if the pandemic ends, they will return to the initial round before the pandemic. But are they sure they can leave bitcoin just because the pandemic is over? I disagree when they come only to seek fiat protection from an economic crisis at a time of pandemic, and flee to the home of Bitcoin.
It cannot be denied that there are 2 factors. the first point, bitcoin will be abandoned, or the second point, they fall in love with bitcoin and say "pandemic or not we are very sorry because we did not know bitcoin from the start".

     Indeed, the pandemic that brought most of the underdeveloped countries on its knees really did a lot to help spread knowledge about bitcoin and altcoins. This is because, as people lose money from this pandemic, most of these people would clearly search for other alternatives to save and grow their assets or even just to earn money since plenty of people also lost their jobs.

     Now, in regards to the things that may happen to bitcoin and this industry once everything gets back to normal is truly hard to predict. But the way I see it, since bitcoin has already successfully made its self widely know to many people, I think that things going back to normal would have a good effect for bitcoin. Since a lot of crypto projects that were paused due to this pandemic will get to return and continue their pending projects. Plus since knowledge about this industry has already been widely spread all throughout the world, mass adoption will get faster and faster.

You are surely over-crediting the pandemic as the main reason/factor why Bitcoin suddenly became bullish during the start of the outbreak when in fact the bullish period for Bitcoin was long overdue on its market cycle. Let's not forget that during March when the COVID-19 started to affect everyone even Bitcoin was affected together with the stocks and other equities its just that Bitcoin quickly recovered and that is when it gained momentum. The things you are saying right now that people are starting to recognize Bitcoin is just coincidental on the bullish period as this is when new comers starts to buy Bitcoin in order for them to participate, this happened during 2017 and is happening again now.

I feel like the pandemic has made more people conscious of their investments. Not sure if its because of rising inflation, increased unemployment or out of sheer boredom due to being in lockdown but it seems like more people become interested into stocks and crypto. In my circle, a number of which joined in during this pandemic. The GME and r/wallstreetbets fiasco which happened a few months ago also sparked the interest for others, not only into US stocks but for crypto as well (as the members tried to deviate from control of institutions). This has made me think that the pandemic has brought about new users in the cryptospace.

But - I don't see the price of Bitcoin reacting to the end of the pandemic. Only new users flocking especially because of the institutional interests, which is not related to the pandemic.

Pandemic has been rough for everybody, and we find it hard to find solutions especially in the beginning where we all adjust and don't know what to do. Bitcoin has been there for us; it was a choice for us if we're gonna use it or not. In this pandemic, a lot of people have relied on bitcoin and used it for a while now. So if ever everything come's back to normal, I doubt that bitcoin will be affected negatively about it, since bitcoin is not really for the pandemic use only, and I believe a lot of people will realize this.

Hey, you've got a point there... it was indeed after a year when the bull run happened and it's almost the same thing right now...
But does this means we are to expect that bitcoin will have to hold on the 40-50k range of value for the upcoming 3 years? Or it really might reach that 100k this year?
Hmmmm, so to sum up pandemic was really a help on this event,...

In the midst of pandemic, Bitcoin has taken its new ATH incredibly, many say that 2017 may repeat, but I think not, the circumstances are different today, and in these times it cannot be compared, what can give a better result is When the pandemic is completely eradicated, at that moment the price of Bitcoin can give a new ATH due to emotions, because the investments that are going to be made have a higher level of confidence than for many, bitcoin represents.

Some have diversified into Bitcoin and Gold, and when normal conditions begin they will not hesitate to buy more, at least many have more confidence in btc than in the same FIAT money.

Yes, the pandemic was a factor indeed on why Bitcoin's price went up, however, it would be the other factors like the ones you mentioned above, the US stocks and also the elections, and up until now, it is still moving, although it would be much better after the pandemic, once people can move much smoother, Bitcoin could go either way.

Exactly, there are many people now who involved with cryptocurrency in this pandemic. Before pandemic, they don't even know how it works and what it actually is. Pandemic played a great role here to spread it. New joined maximum people is known Bitcoin as a bullish thing which will make them profit anyway after some days. But they don't know the real thing which can be happened anytime. After pandemic, hopefully they will see the real scenario of Cryptocurrency.

Halving was a big major reason why it increased, but the pandemic played an involuntary part on the increase as well. We have to see what it is and we can say that it is actually something that would be actually quite good for bitcoin and all the other markets as well. I say that halving played a role, pandemic played a role, elon played a role, grayscale played a role, microstrategy played a role as well.

Basically everything in the world played a role so there is really nothing that would be shocking and they are all parts of bitcoin and that is why I think we can't say that "this was the reason" or "this wasn't the reason" they all played a role together and all increases are part of each of them.

Im not sure that people will leave crypto after pandemic. They liked their earnings too much

I would not worry about that because I don't expect to see this pandemic going away any time soon and I even saw that Guardian is writing articles that we need pandemic-like events every two years to reduce CO2 emission.  ::)
So with all this anti-CO2 agenda, that btw we all bread out and plants use to live, we can see something like restrictions for Bitcoin mining that can affect BTC more than pandemic.
Unrelated to pandemic, printing record amounts of dollars and other fiat currencies is happening and that is good for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin will grow more than now, especially if many new people still use bitcoin and try to make money from bitcoin. Maybe we will see those people try to trade to make money or do something that can make them make money. After a pandemic, people will not just have a chance to use digital money from their country but can have the opportunity to have a new type of investment. I am sure that will have a big impact on the market because we can see many new people will see the market is a big chance to make money., so they will following previous people to trade. I think that will be a positive signal for bitcoin and altcoin as people will see that the cryptocurrency will not just have bitcoin but there is altcoin that can help them earn bitcoin as a profit.

It really depends if you subscribe to the theory of a Super Cycle or regular cyclic movement of the market. If the SC theory is correct, then Bitcoin will continue to rise even after the Pandemic is over, but the Pandemic itself is just one of the factors involved in it, and I would argue it has the smallest contribution. So far the market has not shown any unpredictable rises, nothing that can't be contributed to the systemic push towards legalization of Bitcoin and more institutional investments. Did people start using crypto more during the pandemic? I don't think they did, I just think this is more the reflection of the rise of bitcoin and will probably drop significantly when the price corrects itself.

I think this question is difficult to answer, since we cannot know the future 100%. But if now the United States and other countries are printing money in order to hold back their economies, then part of this money will go to BTC and other cryptocurrencies, which means that they will grow in price. As for the pandemic, after its end there is a possibility that money will be needed and many will start selling cryptocurrency, which will accordingly lead to a drop in prices. Again, this is my assumption and everything can happen in a completely different way. In any case, you need to always be on the lookout and if something happens to have time to react correctly.

The pandemic helped the cryptocurrency market in a major way for sure, but it also helped highlight the various major issues related to popular cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH.

Many cryptocurrency investors including me these days prefer using altcoins like LTC and XRP due to the fast TX times and low fees in order to avoid the high fees and long TX times associated with BTC and ETH.

Overall, rising prices and market cap sound great, but we need to focus on minimizing these issues through solutions like the LN, Bech32 addresses etc.

Bitcoin largely just traces what tech stocks do these days and in the same proportion for the most part. March 2020, the market got hammered and bitcoin along with it. Since all the QE since then, bitcoin is up about 5x, the same as the volatile tech stocks that are mostly in the 4-5x range. It hasn't differentiated itself and acted as a "safe haven" any more than tech stocks have, which are definitely not a safe haven.

Small investors increased all over the world due to the pandemic and in fact, the monetary aid made by the states due to the pandemic became a source of crypto money and most of the people have lost their jobs, and people are trying to make money with stocks as weel as people have experienced cultural change.

Based on what we saw during the pandemic that collapsed the world economy to zero level, that make bitcoin price stable and steady through out the pandemic. The attitude of bitcoin price during the pandemic, show that before the end of this year 2021 bitcoin price will hit $100k. Many people join bitcoin investment base on what they saw for the one year covid-19 trouble the world economy, that was making bitcoin to pump as never before in the exchange market.
Bitcoin after pandemic will be great to those who believe so much on their personal research. Few months ago bitcoin price just hit $50k to show that this season we are is a good season to those who really believe on their investment. .

In the time of pandemic so many people start trading with Bitcoin. So many people newly know about Bitcoin. After pandemic bitcoin price increase enormously. It was hit 50k. After pandemic New people start using Bitcoin. New people start investing on Bitcoin. For those reasons Bitcoin price still volatile and increasing.

Indeed, the pandemic brought a lot of positives in the crypto market. We thought that bitcoin will continue to go down last March of last year, when the lockdown first started. But fortunately, it is the other way around. As months passed, people were stuck at their homes, nothing to do but stayed more online. And that's when halving occurred. And good things happened one after another. Up until big platforms announced their bitcoin buying as well as integration of crypto in their system like PayPal. This pandemic really did give positive impact to crypto. And we are still enjoying this up until now.

The whole question is how long this positive trend will continue and what will happen when the economy enters a phase of stabilization and such protective assets will not be so popular.
I perfectly understand and see why bitcoin is growing and should continue to grow further, but the question arises whether the pandemic has caused excessive growth of bitcoin and excessive overheating of the market, and whether we are then waiting for a drop in the exchange price several times as a result of an imminent correction.

Things can somehow go back to normal when people are just holding their coins, although most of the investors are doing it right now, we should see what will happen when things go back to normal. Also I think that this pandemic pushes bitcoin to bull run, not directly but there is a factor. But no matter what happens, I will just secure my coins, buy at low just like what we are doing. My mindset is to wait for my goal for bitcoin to reach $100k no matter how long it is depending on my situation. Being knowledgeable and open-minded in cryptocurrency investment and blockchain technology is really what keeps me to improve every single day. Hoping that this pandemic ends so that we can see how bitcoin will adapt to the market after "x" years of lockdown.

Although i would agree that the pandemic and the associated global lockdowns has in a way contributed to the spread of awareness on BTC and decentralization, i do not think the end of the pandemic would affect BTC in a negative angle rather it would contribute to make the awareness gets more matured as the technology adoption will begin to become more and more popular.

The adoption may not be just BTC but other cryptocurrencies as well. The pandemic may not really end this year or next, and so it will take a long time giving BTC the chance to be widely known. Making transactions through cryptocurrency could become a normal activity which by the end of the pandemic its not going to affect BTC anymore.

The normal we know before Pandemic wouldn't be the norm for the kids today, most if not all are just holding their gadgets to go school. Some of them will be comfortable that way and will probably continue the online school as well after this pandemic.

Are governments going to burn all of that money they printed? If the answer is no then the price of bitcoin most likely it is going to remain where it is, there is no turning back, the governments took a decision from where there is no return, and I think that smart people are understanding this which is why so much money came to bitcoin so quickly, people are preparing for the day in which the economy will go out of control and they will need to use bitcoin in order to save themselves from such chaos.

Is bitcoin good at the moment? I think that's right, after the pandemic perhaps many people, or countries, will re-raise the issue of the importance of bitcoin to the economy. The pandemic is rebuilding for a better future, all the dread is over, and I think we are heading to the era of technology.

Theoretically Bitcoin is the perfect solution for the inflation problem, in fact, the pandemic showed Bitcoin is still far from being the world currency.

Pandemic helped Bitcoin due to economic crisis that we all are experiencing right now. People saw the importance of having this technology where they can have transactions online and we already seeing some big countries printing so much money taht could lead to inflation rate being high. I believe many more would adopt and probably be entering up this new technology.

I personally dont think that after pandemic, attitude towards bitcoin will be changed, as well as its development, adoption. Still too many people are dependable from fiat, and for most bitcoin is no safe heaven. Topic started mentioned printing money and made parallels to economy being in its down. But how then Bitcoin saved economy? Why bitcoin is a safe heaven? Because its price went up? Why not take then January-March 2020? Same pandemic situation and bitcoins price dropped to 4k. Was it a safe heaven back then?

After the pandemic I feel it will end somehow I myself still doubt when this situation will be as normal as it used to be, bitcoin after the pandemic I feel will not affect its ebb or even be better than ever, even if the pandemic has been an unfavorable circumstance for all people in any way, especially in the economic field it is clearly seen that economies are plaguing almost the world but not Affecting the market prices of bitcoins and proving that now there are more and more people who want to invest in bitcoins, and that is clearly what makes it tick, and my hope that the pandemic will soon be over and that it will be unaffected by the current corona virus pandemic

Yeah, i would also like to detach BTCs value from the pandemic because clearly in the early days of the pandemic, BTC was still heavily dumped. My understanding is that the rate of BTC penetration among the populace is still very very low, so except if the government around the world can undo their mistakes from several decades that have contributed hugely to their poor economies, as long as the awareness on BTC keeps penetrating, its value will only keep surging high and higher.

The pandemic never helped Bitcoin, it only emphasized the value of cryptocurrencies and how useful they can be for digital transactions. People realized that moving forward why the use of cryptocurrencies is more viable which then helped the price eventually.

More projects are now being made on blockchain technology which also brings focus to the cryptocurrencies as well. Guys like Elon Musk are also pumping doge coins which might be rubbish but shows that they are interested in the crypto market and even manipulating them to an extent.

Overall now that the pandemic is almost over, I think we moved 10 years ahead of where we were in terms of digitalization as compared to before the pandemic, and hence the focus has shifted towards cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

Yes, bitcoin is good because, at least, we can still earn money from bitcoin in many ways. When people do not have a job, they will search for other jobs to give them money to survive. Bitcoin gives them hope to make money, especially if they want to get involved in the bitcoin world. Maybe they need the courage to use bitcoin, so they will know how bitcoin can give benefits to them. When the pandemic is ended, they will have money and they can still survive.

Meanwhile, Covid-19 is not over yet and will likely continue to exist with new name and strain. Almost all the health worker in my country have received the vaccine but I am sure the virus will remain because people have not received the vaccine.

As far as I can see, bitcoin has had a positive impact as long as covid hits the world. Had experienced a massive decline but recovered again until ATH was reached. Bitcoin and altcoin investor and trader have made huge profit during the bull market, bitcoin and altcoin have provided them with tremendous benefit and to be grateful. After this, bitcoin naturally continued to gain interest from institutional investor and increased adoption. This is good news for the growing trust and awareness of the wider community toward the freedom to manage their finance without a bank.

Lets us just say that the pandemic help people realize and recognize the importance of getting into Bitcoin as well as into the cryptocurrency market after the crash that happen in the stock market all due to the negative effect of the pandemic in the economy of each and every country affected by the scenario. We are still into the pandemic and we are seeing such a great improvement happening into Bitcoin and other existing cryptocurrencies in the market and if ever this pandemic will turn out to be ended, surely people would still be into crypto for they have already been familiar and experience the benefits Bitcoin can provide to them.

The epidemic had a devastating effect on the country's economy with the country's economy declining per capita income people are living in many crises but there is no negative impact on bitcoin. The demand for bitcoin has increased due to the epidemic and crypto has improved a lot in the online world despite the economic downturn in the market the rise in the price of bitcoin has helped people overcome the crisis.

Totally agreed that your country is in Big debt not just from last year but for the alst couple of years, Printing Paper money is not the solution i believe.
The effect is like a Domino mate , people that learn the crypto is now spreading their Discoveries about cryptocurrencies , very specifically in Bitcoin in which like what you mentioned they are now Keeping the coins.

While they are keeping the funds , they are also encouraging others to invest and use bitcoin , so in the long run widespreading will constantly happen.

we already have a btc before the pademic began and we have good and bad times so maybe the old life that we have before are going to repeat ? fine i have no problems or complains to that infact i like the simplicity that we have before .

less issue , less scams , uhm and maybe lesser btc price ? but not the extent that it wasnt really profitable but theres always a way that the price can be worked out without the help of pandemic

It is not epidemic, it is pandemic, there is a difference there, if it was epidemic we could have survived this a lot easier :D. There is also another terrible thing about this, rich people got richer during this period whereas millions of people are unemployed and doing horrible. Think about a situation where Jeff Bezos made nearly 100 billion dollars in stock profits whereas there are people who are starving to death right now on the streets.

How could that be understandable and how could that be accepted? I can't believe that this is a political issue, when you say that "rich people earned a lot during this period, they should pay a special tax for this one time that would be a lot of money, combined 1 trillion from everyone who owns 100+ million dollars networth, to help people who are starving" is a political thing, that is basically as humane as it gets but somehow right wing doesn't see that as humane but more political.

I see that lots of people are focusing on the crypto currencies side not because of this pandemic most of them doesn't have work to support them selves and the crypto currency is the best way for them even though they don't have enough skill to learn everything but they do i think 1 month is enough to learn on how to invest, trades and other needs to be done for them to earn money without loosing that much i know it's hard for them to start because most of all country got affected because of it and now looking for something to earn for our financial problem let's say each other will invest there a impact into bitcoin market.

Well, yes and no. The price of bitcoin is based on supply and demand. We know that the supply is quite limited and is usually kept by "hodlers" that are many times used to the rollercoaster of the bitcoin price.

However, bitcoin has become a alternative asset insofar as the large investors, that is, it is an alternative to bond, stocks, options, warrants,... In that sense, if the inflation rises bitcoin may go up, but if the interest rates go up in response to inflation, some of the bitcoin capital may swing to bonds. This is a well known phenomenon in stocks (https://www.investopedia.com/articles/fundamental-analysis/09/intermarket-relations.asp#:~:text=Bond%20prices%20and%20stocks%20are,will%20not%20do%20as%20well.).

I said yes and no because the correlation is not always perfect
 https://editorial.azureedge.net/miscelaneous/ES-US-inverse-correlation-636251610115763325.jpg

I think Bitcoin's development and Bitcoin price will probably decline a bit after the pandemic. Because maybe many people will return to investing
in other assets, such as the stock market price will also rise again soon. But because Bitcoin also has strong fundamentals, with many institutions
joining in. So I'm sure the enthusiasm for Bitcoin will remain high as well. Therefore there is nothing to worry about, the price of Bitcoin can still
continue to rise. Because in the end people will be more aware that Bitcoin turns out to provide much greater profits.

Wont say so because once they had discovered this market and this is the place on where they do somehow make money when theres a pandemic then its really hard
for you to forget on when you came from or where you do able to sustain yourself when you are in need.When it comes to adoption then theres no doubt to that because
it will surely gradually increase overtime or as the years passed even lets say that people are turning back to traditional investments or markets that we do know.
Bitcoin doesnt depend nor correlate on what are the external situations we are facing on, one things for sure is that it really grow no matter what.

Do you think this pandemic has a great impact on the Bitcoin market? And I think Bitcoin is already moving forward for the "it's a scam" era when people do start to appreciate it even if there's a hindrance to most of the social media and news before.

This pandemic has nothing to do with the price of Bitcoin it's the results of the Bitcoin halving that most people are waiting to happen. It just happened that the pandemic is actually helping Bitcoin to appreciate because most people are using digital money due to lockdown that banks are having a limited people to come.

Before this investors comes around, there are already people who are managing their investment to this industry.

Though there's really impact when those big names from institutional investors arrived, but they are not here to

play pump and dump, they've seen big potential and they know taking it slowly but surely will bring more money

to their pockets,. They already gaining for sure they will continue doing what they know they are best with.

I'm no expert here, thus my sayings could be all nonsense, however a large amount of people or companies went on the lookout for new investment opportunities. As a result, there were more daily transactions, (larger volume) and a wider audience, that could potentially boost the market.

To return to the main subject, the economy will take years to recover from the pandemic, by the time this has been achieved, Bitcoin will have probably advanced even further, since it's already achieving a great growth.

Don't think that the bitcoin history of 2019 will repeat itself. Until now, those who believe in bitcoin have been convinced that their investments have a future.

Blockchain technology is conquering the way of doing things. Paypal, Visa, MasterCard and big investors have trusted bitcoin and the future is written.

Megacities like Miami are already being talked about as a technological emporium, and so on, the main capitals of the world will improve in technological innovation.

In some point you are right but there are scenarios to be consider and remember when pandemic is on heat people are at home no job no opportunities to find outside world that's why others try to find a source and they find bitcoin as good alternative and imagine how the demand rise when new people came maybe it gives impact a little bit but still so helpful since those people including us creates noise about it, if we talk about who contribute about the big  growth well let's give the credit to the institutional investors since they are the one who hyped the scene.

Bitcoin is the future, right I agree but I don't know how pandemic benefited bitcoins because covid-19 actually crashed the market last year and it took a couple of months to recover actually. It is only co-incidence for me that bitcoins started jumping once the covid-19 scare is towards its end. People suffered a lot financially which actually made them sell their assets including bitcoins last year and now they are buying back slowly which is the reason why the market is recovering so fast and reached a new ATH.

Indeed, with the printing of more and more money, it will eventually cause inflation, and bitcoin helps in such situations. The market is still recovering from a low which was caused last year and it will take more time to recover and printing money is not helping actually.

We cannot assume that all big institutional investors are here for the technology since what I think the other still here for investment purposes and they just threat the technology as a bonus, lets make elon as example for that and he use his influence by tweeting to manipulate the minds of investor the buy some bitcoins and doge coins. And hopefully he will not manipulate the market to collapsed since he has an issue about his doing on tesla shares https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-hit-with-new-lawsuit-alleging-elon-musk-manipulated-stock-price-2018-8

I heard news about the bitcoin surge that happened during the pandemic. On November 25, 2020 it reached a value of around 19,000 dollars and to be honest I didnt expect that to happen. I guess it had something to do with all the money printing that led to inflation. People see bitcoin as a safe haven asset, some even invested during the pandemic and considered it as a side income. It's good that people are now more informed when it comes to cryptocurrencies, after the pandemic I think bitcoin will gain more reputation and value.

When the pandemic is over, I'm quite sure that bitcoin and the crypto world would be accepeted slowly as it goes to be a solution for this kind of scenario. It would be adapted and consider as digital currency without being a threat to fiat currency.

It may wagered that bitcoin much way better result is have bitcoin will develop more after the widespread, the individuals knows that everything they claim and know as of now are delicate when a fiasco like widespread happens and as above mentioned bitcoin appeared that it can offer assistance amid the widespread and individuals will seek after it advance since they know that they can advantage from it and I accept that development is the as it were plausibility for bitcoin after a widespread.

This pandemic has a positive effect on cryptocurrencies especially on Bitcoin because people have realized the importance of digital currency and online transactions. People have learned to invest in it because they have seen how it could grow as a currency. I'm sure that more adoptions will happen even after the pandemic.

Not at all because considering on the economic situation then its hard to believe that people specially those ordinary ones would really make out some consideration on making out investment in times like this
where everyone is really on the pit of hardship since not all would really be having that stable job or able to retain up themselves on this crisis but somehow the market didnt really get that much affected
aspite of the crisis we are in but rather it did pumped out.Reason? Big companies and billionaires are on the line which it isnt really surprising that they would really be making out those market movements
without needing the entire community to get involved on.For now the adoption rate is becoming even more bigger as the days goes by.

And yes and no at the same time. I am not sure that this positive effect is so significant specifically about digital currencies and online transactions, because any fiat currency has its own digital form and online transactions, so it is debatable to argue about a certain special role of bitcoin in the awareness of the importance of online transactions. The absolute majority of the population during the pandemic used fiat digital currencies much more and did not even think about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

I do agree with you here. Not all people can afford to invest in a very risky and volatile environment during these challenging times. Most of them will secure their basic needs first before anything else. Though adoption is growing owed to this pandemic but still ordinary people won't invest yet in crypto. Maybe, it will be a good option for alternative payment method because a lot are now looking for digital payment, that's when small time users come in. The big investments that are going into crypto will come from these financial institutions and top companies. And this pandemic brought a lot of them to trust crypto investments.

Most of these people are about to get their $1,400 stimulus cheques from the Biden administration. When people work hard for every penny they make, the idea of investing in an extremely volatile asset may not be very attractive. But that is not going to be the case when they receive free handouts from the government. At least a section of the population would be open to the idea of investing in cryptocurrency, albeit for small amounts such as $50 or $100.

Although it seems that many investors will invest in industry again but I think bitcoin still will be okay since we have big enough community who can make environment for bitcoin users so economic condition in our community can become more stable. Bitcoin related business will keep growing, the psychological effect of this pandemic will still affect our lives, although the pandemic end people will keep social distancing as there are some virus mutations. So online payment (cashless) will become more popular. I think bitcoin future still good.

The fact is that to date, quite large capitals have already entered Bitcoin, and institutional capital has migrated to the cryptocurrency market in a significant part. I believe that this trend will continue, as I am confident that before investing in bitcoin, the owners of large investment portfolios have done a global research and are confident in the prospects for Bitcoin in the future.

We all also very much expect and hope for a high bitcoin price after the pandemic, but we must always be realistic and keep in mind other scenarios of the situation. A significant part of its current price for bitcoin was formed due to the attitude of investors to bitcoin as a protective asset, and measures of financial stimulation of the economy by state governments also play a role. But after the end of the pandemic, these factors will not be so significant and it is worth hoping and believing that there will not be a multiple drop in the price as a result of the correction.

There is no way that it wouldn't continue. Look at all the companies that got into crypto, it is something to marvel at because those who invested billions of dollars made some billions of dollars in just few more months, that is unheard of anywhere in the trading world or finance world, nobody puts in few billion dollars and double it in less than half a year, but these people did it.

Grayscale and microstrategy started buying all the way from 10-15k range, and tesla bought in 40k or so range, and it is crazy to think that they have billions thanks to their investments. There is zero chance that other companies who see this increase in bitcoin and the profit making possibility of bitcoin and not go in, all those huge wall street companies, british ones, european ones, and any other nation, all those companies will get in with their billions of dollars, then we will have bitcoin at 500k+ for sure.

What history do you mean by 2019? I remember in 2017 the price reached its previous ATH and then it was dropped which is what concerns investors now as again we are floating around the new ATH, so there are investors who worry if there will be a dump followed again. But I don't remember what happened in 2019.

Yes, the acceptance has grown and even Tesla has started accepting Bitcoins which I believe is better news than PayPal's Bitcoin acceptance. From what I have known and heard, PayPal doesn't allow user to withdraw bitcoins, only trade is allowed, I rather prefer to hold my Bitcoin in my own wallet with private keys written on the walls of my house ;D.

I highly doubt there will be a big dump this year or in the following years because what happened in 2017 was the manipulation of the market but now what we are witnessing is the growth of the market organically.

I think the stability of Bitcoin after the pandemic will be okay when the user keep  their work to surrounding in this forum for making a good business, the economy failed after the pandemilc will be not so easy to grow up again, that's why we need to keep using bitcoin after this pandemic. I think more people using it will make a good  impact for bitcoin value.

Even though the pandemic will over, ai don't think that bitcoin will crash too much but we can say that this pandemic brought so much with the inflation of bitcoin because a lot of people became focused more on the internet and exploring the crypto world. A lot of people now are exploring the crypto world so even though the pandemic would go there would still be a lot of people who still prefer cryptocurrency.

This pandemic is one of the reason on why most people realized people are really not that hygienic and it pushed most countries to adapt a more digitized world. This is where Cryptocurrencies come in and its not just because of the pandemic but also because of the utilization that it boasted throughout this hard times. Having a cashless way to do transactions surely made them realized that doing this is hassle free and its also another form of investment. Bitcoin after the pandemic would still be usable because it is a digital currency which is useful on a lot of situations.

The coronavirus pandemic had only a negative attitude towards bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the initial period of its occurrence. We remember that in March last year, then the price of bitcoin dropped sharply to four thousand dollars. Of course, at the same time it was a good opportunity to buy it. However, since then, I believe that the coronavirus has a generally positive effect on cryptocurrency, since the general isolation of the population has aroused people's interest in cryptocurrency and increased demand for it, including due to fears of a high level of inflation.
After the victory over the coronavirus, these positive trends will continue.

One thing is for sure, those who embraced bitcoin right after the March 2020 will stick to bitcoin forever since they truly recognized the true value of BTC after the huge pandemic hit! It went just parabolic after that, how could somebody who invested not be amused?
So definitely there so much to see after the pandemic will be over.

But the pandemic made a major factor, as people don't have anything to do at home, and it is boring (REALLY BORING) to be at home doing nothing and just videocalling for work.

We can say that pandemic really has a really nice factor that make BTC, or shall we say CRYPTO great. And as you said, it is parabolic, so we will see a really great correction in some time this year or next year. Its just that we don't know if it will happen before pandemic ends, or after pandemic ends.

It's hard to answer this question because there are institutional investors really interested in bitcoin (more related to technology businesses) and there are another big investors who just want to protect their patrimony from fiat devaluation and high inflation rates that is insanely happening at this moment, especially due to the pandemic.

Once global economy normalizes and starts rising again the second category of investors I mentioned is probably going to cashout their funds from bitcoin to investments like stocks and traditional assets again. We must wait by this day to see how deep will be this impact for crypto market. On the other hand, the first category of investors mentioned above tends to keep holding and investing in bitcoin more and more, what can help to keep the market stable or at least to let us have a smoother bear market.

---

And there is another theory yet saying the global economy won't recover never more through the currently economical system and there will be a big reset. In this case bitcoin is only going to increase in value.

I heard the vaccine has been coming in a few months ago but I haven't seen a great impact from the vaccine. I mean, the question is where this pandemic is over? I guess it needs a long time to see this pandemic is over. We have been passed this pandemic foe at least one year and we can't do anything.

As for bitcoin price after pandemic, I believe it will be the same as now. The people will just afraid to sell their investment and choose money fiat as their place but the shadow of inflation will always exist, so they will just focus to store their money into bitcoin or in another save heaven asset like gold.

For me Bitcoin before the pandemic and after the pandemic was very different, because after the pandemic many people began to understand
Bitcoin is very good for a store of value compared to other assets. Therefore a few days ago the US government distributed stimulus checks,
and from the many articles I read that many check stimulus recipients use to buy Bitcoin. Because they realize that Bitcoin's performance in
the current pandemic situation is the best to be able to make money. As long as the pandemic is not over people will prefer to store their wealth
in Bitcoin, because it is the only asset that can provide huge profits in a pandemic situation like now.

It's going to be positive, the institutions will be active again many companies are open again and people will continue to invest we will have a lively economy again, and part of that lively economy are people investing more in Cryptocurrency, in times of pandemic people are in panic and just hoarding huge amount of money in their home because they don't trust the stock market in times of pandemic.

Bitcoin is far from becoming a safe haven like gold or silver, even though its current trajectory looks similar. These are monumental changes in the underlying and will only change if the Fiat system itself is under threat. There are various narratives surrounding Bitcoin, but the biggest one still remains the fact that most volumes are due to trading. Some would argue it is gambling of sorts, while some will see a move towards digital gold.Keep in mind, equities as a traditional assets are looking very lucrative right now.

A friend of mine who dismissed bitcoin every time I tried to explain it to him, leveraged these pandemic days to learn more about it and become a maximalist. After he read the Bitcoin Standard and Understanding Bitcoin he went absolutely crazy. He was also lucky to buy a single coin at $6000 in May. Funny?

Indeed, there are newcomers owed to this pandemic. I have the same experience last year. My colleague suddenly contacted me about how to transact with bitcoin as she knew that I was into crypto even before pandemic. I usually don't approach first explaining what crypto is or how to transact with crypto, because normally, they won't listen to you. But times has changed. A lot have had time last year to learn more about bitcoin or crypto because they were stuck at home and they were reading some good news about bitcoin. And the good thing is, they have seen its rise and up to what it achieved today. So yes, this pandemic brought a lot of positives in crypto. Even financial institutions and large companies are now involve in this industry.

Please stop putting Grayscale in the same bucket as companies that buy bitcoin as part of their treasury. These are two different things and Grayscale buying bitcoin has absolutely nothing to do with bitcoin treasury purchases. 

And yes, there is significant possibility that other companies see bitcoin rise and still don't purchase it. Because it happens every day.  Far more often than what you're claiming happens.  The level of hype here doesn't look any different from speculators in the 2000s saying "anyone who doesn't flip houses is an idiot, there's no way more people aren't going to continue to get into the market and push prices up." 

There are no guarantees in investing. Not with housing in 2000s, not with crypto now.

I would not say that financial institutions and large companies have started investing in bitcoin precisely because of the pandemic. It's just that the time has come and the big players have begun to mature for such operations. Any new thing must first win the trust of the market and only then can we talk about the scale of the phenomenon. If earlier the main role in the market of crypto assets was played by private investors, now they began to add large players such as financial organizations and large companies, and by the way, for this period of time, I have much more expectations from entering the market of large financial organizations.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the more the investors, the better it is for the market but all these investors are going to sell at some point for sure which will always create holes in the market and bring it down. One thing we all are skipping is that we have large investors into bitcoins like Tesla and MicroStrategy, instead of a lot of small investors, the latter being the healthier option for any market.

I am not saying we need to panic because the involvement of large investors also shows that bitcoin has gained more trust from investors and even more acceptance in the market. Just don't get carried away with the price and be realistic in your approach to where you want to sell, at some point you have to. If you have invested as a long term investor who doesn't care about the price at all, then you should not care what happens in the market.

Well that's the magic in Crypto, it is fearsome and time consuming if you see it at first, but as you understood and learn things about Crypto. You became more inclined and go towards just like the others.

It is true that if you look at the current conditions there will be times when investors start selling their assets at a certain point.  In the future, if there is a negative signal, it will definitely drop very deeply because most of the time, retail investors with a background are following the trend.  If negative issues come down from Tesla owners, the crypto market will be affected quite a lot.  Because Elon musk also has a strong influence in crypto.

We’ll never actually know what the outcome will be after the pandemic and what will Bitcoin’s value be with the people who have invested in them during the pandemic. Some may have understood the real purpose of Bitcoin and some may have just joined in because it was the easiest and most convenient way for people to use their money. But I do hope most people will still hold on to their cryptocurrencies when the pandemic is over, ‘cause people tend to have this habit of liking one thing today and sometimes not wanting to do with anything the next.

I imagine bitcoin staying as it is after the pandemic has subsided. There's no big factors that would greatly affect its price anyway so I don't see how it's price will drop or rise drastically. Unless a huge buy or a huge sell is made by one or more people. This could cause a big change in the price and altogether alter bitcoin's value. Then again at the end of the day these man-made factors cannot be put into the equation beforehand because they're very unpredictable.

There will be selling after the pandemic, there is no telling however when the pandemic will end. The economy will still struggle even after the pandemic though, you can imagine people selling their properties for less than 50% of the price they bought. If the ones selling their BTC are selling for USD which is also collapsing that its purchasing power is diminishing it will just be pointless.

I see people without a main job to generate a steady income because most of the current jobs are affected by this pandemic. They look to investment channels to find money and hope to get rich, not only bitcoin but almost all other investment channels get the attention of many people. No work has no real cost, it's all a bubble of collapse for the whole economy that's going on, money is continuously being pumped into the markets, yes its money printed to save the economy. It is better to let it die for a new start than to give up the hope of reviving it.

I believe if it was getting widely adopted, it should have been exactly right now. Its seen as a great way to make money by a lot of people, but even during periods where people were afraid to spend credit card anywhere for fear of getting it from the card (not possible as it turns out I think) and didn't even want to pay in cash because you will get change back and you could get it from there (not possible as well I think) so at the end of the day bitcoin or at least mobile to mobile payments should have increased a million percent during this period, and that is not going on right now, it should have happened long time ago and not happening at anytime right now.

We have to realize that we are not in a situation where bitcoin spending and bitcoin accepted places are not getting more and more accepted just because of covid, it should have been a lot more during this period since it would have been perfect for it.

Not only pandemic contributes to the value of bitcoin nowadays, the post halving and a lot of things happened makes bitcoin inflate a lot. Once the pandemic gets over there would be a big impact on the value of bitcoin, maybe it would go down a little bit as a lot of people will now become busy and do some other things but we are now seeing the small innovation for the bitcoin as we are now started for mass adoption, even though we cannot see it as a whole mass adoption, it still happen little by little.

This pandemic is unlikely to be over but Bitcoin will definitely be even more valuable...
I am not really sure about the days ahead and whether the world will be free from this pandemic but for Bitcoin, I am sure it will continue to be of value, just look at how many institutions are accepting Bitcoin.

Honestly I think Bitcoin would be more popular and would boom much more after this pandemic (I wish this pandemic would be over already), because people can use it even more freely like literally going out to a store a pay using cryptocurrency, mainly Bitcoin. Whether there's a pandemic or not, Bitcoin will do it's thing without bothering anyone, it's unstoppable in my opinion.

The pandemic is one of the reasons why Bitcoin became popular, I don't know how to feel about it but if it helps a lot of starving people, a poor community, then it's all good and I hope that people will continue to embrace Bitcoin as a way to change their life into a better one.

The pandemic keeps many people at home and as a result they definitely use the internet all day long, therefore there is a lot of interest in bitcoin which might change their financial lives and this is not all just a pandemic but I am sure bitcoin every year will have changes with many interests.

With that there will be a lot of greater adoption, for example by large companies, then chances are that those who don't know will try to find out what bitcoin actually is and there will start their interest in bitcoin and can even be called promising in the future if they are sure of it .

And I also believe a lot has changed in their lifestyle after getting into bitcoin.

The coronavirus pandemic is still contributing to the spread of information about bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general. In addition, people are learning more about cryptocurrency as a deflationary tool, and on the eve of a possible global economic crisis, this leads to a sharp increase in demand and prices for it.
After this pandemic, the world will never be the same. Much will change as the old economic ties are broken. We are already seeing the world become more digital and this will positively affect the cryptocurrency.

I agree if there are statements that say that the COVID-19 pandemic is making Bitcoin stronger and more popular. Because it is different from
other assets, Bitcoin continues to improve in performance. Even this year was Bitcoin's best performance, because it's surprisingly managed
to hit the price of $ 61k. Even though currently the Bitcoin price is falling, but I still think the fall in the Bitcoin price is a normal correction.
Nothing to worry about, because I really believe the Bitcoin price can recover soon.

The pandemic still not over it just started. But here is a posetive thing again. Bitcoin got some more time to Reach again to other peoples. Who still do not know about bitcoin. They will get more time to research about bitcoin. Here is a green signal for us. If a users comes to research about bitcoin then it is a guranted that nobody will be interested to leave bitcoin. So more people comes. And some more thing lots of big b type people promote bitcoin. Like elon mask. His recent announcement that now we can buy Tesla through bitcoin means more users in bitcoin means more price up. Whooooooooooo. I think if we can get more users for this pandemic then after pandemic this shouldn’t be get any effect on bitcoin. Because we have users and we can run it more smoothly. People who could start work again then they can invest more money in bitcoin. I hope so. Basically i think it is all of us hope.

But at last pandemic should be end and covid tooo. Please god keep safe all of us from this covid.

The pandemic is not getting anywhere and it is going to be another year wasted, who would have thought we will be loosing a couple of years to a global pandemic but when it comes to bitcoin the only reason that could help the market is because the global economy is struggling and we have no idea how long it will take for the recovery.

Attaching bitcoin with the current worldwide economy is not something that you can just bragged on.We've seen on how this market behaved in spite of the current hardship we are experiencing right now.

I hope you know that the last time we experienced a big bull run like this that there was nothing like pandemic right? So Bitcoin doesn’t need pandemic to grow, the price will always grow whether there is pandemic or no pandemic, as long as the time is right for that to happen , it’s definitely going to happen.

One thing I knew for sure was that the price was going to increase this year and I had that belief because of the halving that was going to take place, so I believed when it happens the next thing will be the price going up anytime soon, and that’s before the pandemic came. Although people started it’s saying because of the pandemic that the price of Bitcoin increases, well I don’t know about that.

It may or may not be the reason but only those who didn't believe in BTC before will see how the price really moves now that many companies and personalities focused on crypto now. In year 2017 we already see how the market is capable of reaching all time highs without Pandemic or backup of big companies so the potential of crypto is not because of Pandemic but can influenced other individuals to shift to crypto because of the Pandemic that particularly affects the market.

Bitcoin even before pandemic has already been increasing its value every year and when this pandemic happens, people started to open their minds about bitcoin since online transactions is more encouraged than making fiat transactions in order to reduce the spread of virus. And when big institutional investors started to invest in bitcoin too during this time of pandemic, it gives more positive outcome on bitcoin. And i think even when this pandemic ends, bitcoin will continue to have a bright future since people have already build trust on it.

Bitcoin was on the path to becoming a household name, with or without the pandemic.


In the U.S., once the pandemic is over, and the economy opens up, there will be INFLATION after the trillions in money printing for stimulus packages, which a large part of that was sent directly to people’s bank accounts. Bitcoin will exploit it, and it’s possible that it might break the cycle, and enter an extended bull market for the first time.

Don't look for unemployed people since majority of them doesn't know about bitcoin so just expect that they experience that since they didn't explore the bitcoin yet, Maybe try to focus on the positive happening which gives bitcoin a good boost since imagine who will think that we can cross at $60k+ while the pandemic is on so expect after this that we can possibly see more since imagine if all people are capable to buy bitcoin from that provably we can see it reach to 6 digit figure.

Coronavirus had a negative impact on financial institutions all over the world. Export and import had fallen sharply and many economies suffered a lot. As the most traditional options of investment had rendered unprofitable, so investors have turned to bitcoin. Consequently, the price has started rising sharply. Now, bitcoin has been the talk of the town everywhere.

in my opinion it was not the pandemic that brought all this great interest that bitcoin is having, it was the bitcoin halving that made people start not to sell bitcoin frequently because they had seen what always happened with bitcoin halving in the past, with less people wanting to sell bitcoin the price started to rise a lot and then came the paypal announcement that caused the bitcoin price to start to increase a lot, then elon musk with his twitters.


it will have little effect on the price, bitcoin is supported by companies like paypal and elon musk, I also heard that visa and mastercard are not criticizing bitcoin... even if the pandemic ends the bitcoin price it will not fall as much as in the past


it will not be as in 2019 and when the pandemic ends it will not negatively affect bitcoin. as i said few people are willing to sell bitcoin so the price will not fall much after the pandemic

The fact that it is very difficult for countries to get out of the economic crisis is completely incomprehensible, but the difficulties will be overcome for a long time to come. Due to the pandemic, as well as due to strict quarantines, a large number of businessmen lost their business because they could not cover the losses. This also weighs heavily on the economies of many countries. Based on this, cryptocurrencies will only increase their influence in the world and every government will soon agree with this.

You believe there’s not much? But a lot has changed. Michael Saylor, Elon Musk, and other business institutions are starting to HODL Bitcoin, with government institutions, and central banks planning to be next. They might be hedging, or planning to hedge against what might be coming. Inflation. Plus Bitcoin will be a household name. 8)

How do you know that it was the reason for Bitcoin bull run?
Maybe it was because more and more people started to trade as an hobby, maybe the liquidity from stock market little by little started to come in bitcoin space. People often want to have story behind certain events and this seems like that.

Well, I think he has a point, this pandemic helps Bitcoin to reach what it is now, not the main reason, yes but one of a factor. Remember when pandemics hit, the stock market got really hit hard and some investors from it find another way to save their money and Bitcoin somehow became a safe haven of some sort. And now they have seen the potential, adoption continues until big institutions and prestigious person like Elon Musk starts to invest with it. You also have a point there like the liquidity from the stock market started to come in Bitcoin. It is more likely a chain I think.

Since more people switch into the crypto currency because of covid 19 pandemic because they lost their job and that's the reason why they trust bitcoin as one of the best way to earn alternative money and maybe because of that bitcoin will become more expensive and more popular after the pandemic.

There is a great variety of things that have happened, one of the things is that the demand has increased in the casinos and betting houses, this helps in part to make Bitcoin move much more, also some gold investors have migrated to Bitcoin Such is the case of the son of Peter Schiff, and recently the president of the FED when in one of his statements he said that Bitcoin could replace Gold, despite its high volatility and lack of support.

In addition, this year has been very controversial, we have seen a new ATH in the midst of a pandemic, this is something unpredictable, many never bet on Bitcoin in a world event of this style where what was most pronounced was panic, despite this, the Investor confidence has gained ground.

In a zero pandemic scenario, I think that Bitcoin could reach much higher levels in price than it is now.

Institutional investor are one of the many reason why this year's ATH is different from the previous ATH. The growing wave of institutional investor has led many to believe that bitcoin will be much more capable of hitting a high price and perhap $100K. People's awareness of bitcoin as a future asset as well as a store of value has strengthened, this is the expected support for bitcoin. Now, 6 out of 10 of my friend in RL are already interested in bitcoin or other crypto assets and this is something that is much different from before.

You are right, it is also very possible that other large ones, such as Amazon, will join the market and it was also speculated that Apple could enter, if this is the case we could see a much greater increase in the market, usually the large ones like Elon Musk he has bet heavily on Bitcoin even though his shares are down 50%, if someone with as much influence as him has trusted Bitcoin and has not paid as much attention to his own actions even though his advisers have recommended selling his Bitcoin, has a clear vision of the currency, this means that what can come will be a large increase in price much better than the ATH of almost $60k. I'm very hopeful based on PlanB's prediction model  S2F.

I feel the same thing too. After several ATH times, the issue develops like a virus. Investing in Crypto is a new trend in my environment and they say that it is more profitable to invest in crypto than in stocks. Even investors in stocks are moving to Crypto because of the excellent news in the Crypto environment. They take a portion of the stock and convert it to Crypto. This is an interesting issue when it comes to a pandemic. In fact, I predict this trend will last until the pandemic ends.

That would be cool, mate. However, you should also know that the current circulating supply of bitcoin also plays an important role in investor confidence. Many institutional investor today buy bitcoin and then hold them, knowing that if bitcoin were scarce then the price would be very high.

It seemed they were quite panicky when they found out that bitcoin had risen quite high. Now everything is clear and you will also see how bad they never believed in bitcoin before today.

My opinion is that the pandemic speeded up crypto adoption! It's not like crypto needed all this mess to make a progress, but locking down people in their homes pushed people into crypto! And I can't agree more with your words, while it's chaos in the world outside, crypto is flourishing... and that will not end with a pandemic! I believe crypto will continue with the adoption, therefore crypto will continue with making progress! We will see new all times high prices again!

Because of the pandemic, people are trying to go online now, most of the things and work made online so crypto adoption will be pretty easy right now. That's one of the advantages of a digital asset, they're trying to make a profit out of it and trying to join the hype made by some popular people like Elon Musk. This is the stepping stone of crypto to be the main asset of some institution and the good thing is, the government might take the opportunity especially the third world countries, might use it to pay debts.

I do not know what will happen to the price of the bitcoin after we overcome the pandemic but one thing is for sure, the price action is the king. I do not have any predictions on what will happen and I always relying on the price action of the bitcoin. We are still in uptrend but there are few signs that a reversal may happen. It is is just a signs and there should be a confirmation first for us to see that bear market will finally happen. This pandemic may still happen for these past months but there are now countries who are recovering because of what happened. Hopefully the whole economy will finally overcome in order for the people to back in their normal lives and also for the some markets to become healthy again.

School lessons have now become online so I think all areas of our activities in this pandemic are almost done in what way will this increase the adoption of greater crypto? well of course this is an advantage where many know about this lucrative crypto investment, can't stop thinking how they make more money here than real work, therefore bitcoin adoption has been implemented slowly by them, therefore we will know how is this performance to its fullest.

Currently, some governments still refuse, meaning that they are not yet fully integrated into crypto.

Bitcoin has been fairly famous since the beginning. However, its popularity has increased with the advent of pandemics. There has been a lot of changes in this period again and the bitcoin price has increased. Hopefully, its position will remain intact even after the end of the pandemic. Because people know and understand Bitcoin better than Pandemic. So it can be said that it will have both existence and location.

After the pandemic we do not sure what will happen to the bitcoin but because Bitcoin is already popular I think they have a lot of people are still using bitcoin even they have a lot of people are going back to work for sure most of them are investing and trading bitcoin and altcoins. But now we are still on the pandemic and we do not know what after this.

Elon Musk is only a few percent of his contribution to this hype.  Long before the Elon mask, in 2020 Bitcoin had a return of approximately 400%.  So I guess it's not just because of Elon, they started investing but because the return shown by Bitcoin is much more attractive than other investment assets.  Elon is only a recent trend, and it's not that significant yet.

After Pandemic Bitcoin will prevail as it is now. Bitcoin is an online platform and people are prosperous here. Its popularity is also a bunch. After a pandemic, maybe everything will be normal and everyone will be involved working offline.  But even then, everyone correlated with Bitcoin, and Bitcoin will conserve everyone working.

Right now people from every country is experiencing hard time. In particular there is very low circulation of money around the globe. When the pandemic scenario changes automatically there'll be rise in the circulation of money. This will probably boost people to invest more, upon which market will go bullish even if there happens a massive price correction.

Though he's not that much of a help for you then he is for the Chinese government. Look at how much just they're trying to help him build his massive tesla factory on chinese land. They even gave him loans, not just ordinary loans, it's a government loan. Another is he's income tax i their is low, and he is an icon in the industry of cars, technology, Internet etc etc etc.
i think that's not just luck in there, it's his pure skill in field. One tweet and it's all over thr internet. He's capabilities has no limits. I like his vision and he's planning to send people to Mars later on. Maybe it will be enough for you to say to that he can move the bitcoin market greatly if he succeed and say bitcoin is the currency on Mars.

Exactly, the COVID-19 pandemic was very good for bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem because the pandemic has opened an eye for many people about bitcoin and cryptocurrency investments. During the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown people were looking for investment opportunities while at home, they are looking for investment opportunities online and here comes the bitcoin - that's what definitely changed the game.

The fact is that during the pandemic, Bitcoin is recognized all over the world as a very profitable asset, along with the usual assets. Based on this, the benefit of the pandemic is that once having believed in Bitcoin, this trust will remain with investors forever. Thus, the capitalization of bitcoin will only increase, of course, given the market corrections.

No other asset performed like bitcoin during the last crazy year, nothing can compare against the our greatest orange friend! Regarding your comment about the fact that people believed in bitcoin, I hope don't just rely solely on belief but they should do their own research about why investing.
That's the way to go.

No doubt that the pandemic has brought so many lives, properties and and national economy to  total backwardness and uptill now some known Nations  are yet to fully recover from it it negative effects which also has affected bitcoin full time.

Bitcoin may show stable growth and positive marks during the pandemic, but this pandemic undoubtably put a lot of families and people into total turmoil, either because of loss of family members, finances, and even education at times. So as much as I am happy for bitcoin literally defying the odds and reaching greater heights after a very disappointing march 2020, the world is still yet to heal, what compels me is how bitcoin can be used to turn this situation around, perhaps in the near future.

We are sure that even after the end of the pandemic the impact on the market will be positive for BTC. More and more people start investing in crypto now. This trend will definitely continue.

I really hope this is true. In my opinion a lot of people who got money from the Corona Relief Fund and didn't really needed it used it for investing. Buying either Stocks or Crypto currencies is a good idea. So if the pandemic goes on for another 2-3 years things could get very difficult, but if we manage to end it this year it should be a very positive outlook for Bitcoin. It all comes down to if the vaccines are going to be enough and if we can actually manage to open the economies again.

It would be too much to expose the profile and background of Elon musk to his relationship with Bitcoin.  You may find it very great but for me it is normal.  You only admire the figure of Elon Musk to move the market even though the essence of Bitcoin when it was first created would have aspired to the current hype. Sooner or later without Elon, Bitcoin will still have a very high value because the basis of its creation is against the paradigm of modern economists.

Most of the people are working from home in this pandemic situation. A lot of people have lost their jobs and earning opportunity. After pandemic situation, people will be able to invest again on bitcoin and this will be positive sign for bitcoin. I hope, after pandemic, we will be able to see a great move of bitcoin.

A lots of good movements happened inside this industry, for sure after this pandemic and once people already got a better

financial status, investing to this market will also considered. A lots of actions and more and more new investment will flow inside

this market, we seen it now even the virus still hitting more places around the world, the interest are weighting in. There are more

to come as expected.

I don't really think that a lot is going to change, people are slowly opening their eyes about what governments are doing with fiat currencies and there are many reasons for this, probably one of the most important is the Internet, it is almost impossible to imagine our lives without Internet right now but a few decades ago the Internet did not existed so it was impossible to get unfiltered information as we do now, so governments controlled what their citizens knew about the system and as such it was easier to control them, but since that is not the case anymore people are realizing the scam of fiat currencies and they do not want to play part in that system anymore.

The pandemic turned out to be a blessing 8n disguise for most persons and nations too. As it opened the eyes of citizens to see the need for other forms of investments, online investments for which, the government have little or no influence over and isn't bounded by any boundary. This is what they found in bitcoi  and cryptocurrencies and as such, the crypto market which fell at the initial phase of the pandemic soon experienced a boom as it gained new investors and since then, its just being going on and on. The pandemic became the push crypto needed.

Bitcoin made a huge jump on the duration of the pandemic, maybe it was all because plenty of people all over the world are trying to avoid physical transactions and wanted to invest their money on other investment instruments otger than the bank. Once the pandemic is over, everything won't be the same anymore. Bitcoin will continue its reign of dominance or the other way around, we can never be certain about its future. It would be best if we'll keep on monitoring the price change in the market to figure out if an income dump or pump is coming. Let us hope this pandemic stops already so we can see greater opportunity otside, we've been caged inside our houses for so long already. Maybe its beneficial for bitcoin but not for everyone, also maybe better things would happen for bitcoin if it ends finally.

Another important part about this is the fact that some nations pick vaccinations and think that one is better than the other. It could very well might be true, maybe some vaccinations are better than the others I can't say it is not because I am not a scientist, but the reality is that if we have one vaccination in our hands, we will use that and we can't just wait for the other one to come neither, that would be very difficult, for example Europe doesn't accept Chinese vaccination as acceptable and doesn't take people who are vaccinated with that, and that means if you are in a nation with Chinese vaccination you have to get it done or you have a bigger chance to die but Europe says they will not allow you to go to Europe if you have it, so you have a possibility of dying while waiting for their vaccination instead, does that make any sense at all?

they need the money because livelihood of the people are affected but if there is an excess in that fund they can use it for crypto investment because it can help them earn while waiting for the situation to settle .
if the lockdown periods are extended it wont cause difficulty to the individuals that are covered by help but it can cause problem to the government

There's a lots of speculations and yes because of this pandemic people start to see the big potential of Bitcoin.

The value rises up not just because of this pandemic but also because of those participations coming from big investors and businesses who
shows support to this chain.

Most probably once everyone is free to go out, the chance of having more investors are possible, as some are still don't have enough fund
but once they've gathered money they'll be coming to start investing.

With a fully decentralized system, Bitcoin is far from desiring central banks and governments for quantitative easing. Plus the digital scarcity embedded in bitcoin DNA, because the maximum supply is only 21 million token, this is one of the main characteristics that will continue to increase in value over time and form the widespread perception that Bitcoin is (digital gold), because Bitcoin is superior to the value of other assets by being a global means of exchange.
Especially when the world is hit by a pandemic, crypto is the best solution for some people who are currently unable to use banks because of the lockdown set by the government, so they are forced to live in a confined environment which makes sending and receiving money more difficult, Both when making transactions internationally and with the closest family. That way they are better prepared to face the global economic crisis. like the current market crash due to COVID-19.

Pandemic has a very little effect on the price of BTC. When great influential and the richest man in the world are in the game, you should not expect anything less. Besides, Paypal is introducing the acceptance of BTC as a medium of payment to all merchants which are in millions, Visa just announced the same using Ethereum blockchain and USDC. All these contributed a lot and hence bring about the mass adoption we are seeing recently.

Which pandemic do you mean
Are you referring to the Woke wankers who are infecting society

I strongly disagree about the very small impact of the pandemic on the current price of bitcoin, because let's not forget that the current fantastic growth rates of capitalization of some companies and, accordingly, the wealth of their key shareholders happened due to the policy of printing a lot of money precisely because of the pandemic. And I personally am not sure that after the collapse of such a policy by central banks, the bitcoin exchange rate will remain at such price levels.

I doubt that there will be a significant change in the value of bitcoin even after the pandemic.

One important thing to note, it is estimated that the whole world would normalize their operations after 5-6 more years due to the variants of the virus which hinders health developments. One important thing that I learned is to HODL the coins and save it for the future or until its value matures depending on my goal. The virus definitely helped increased its value but that factor alone does not depend solely on why its price skyrocketed in the first place.

I beg to differ because most pumps in the prices were caused by people putting their stimulus checks into bitcoin and those checks were not possible if there wasn't a pandemic. Yes there are institutional adoptions coupled with that but that doesn't discount the fact that the pandemic contributed less on the growth. Maybe after pandemic, people are going to introduce bitcoin to other people when they can finally get out and institutional investors are still going in.

Pandemic have nothing to do with decentralized currency because bitcoin is a digital currency that is not control by any country in the world. It pump and dump without any government permission.
During the pandemic many people thought pandemic is the reason why bitcoin was pumping until now that bitcoin price is still increasing in the market to prove them wrong that pandemic is not behind of the pumping in the exchange market. Many government just recover from the lost the pandemic caused to their economy.

Stimulus checks hasn't reached a majority of the recipients yet. From the latest estimate, the checks have been sent to 130 million people, but there will be delays in receiving and encashing them. IMO, the full impact will be known only after 2-3 months. 7th April is the date being given for social security payments. BTW, now there is a new proposal for monthly stimulus checks of $2,000 for every American, until the pandemic is eradicated. The details can be found here:

https://www.dataforprogress.org/blog/2021/1/04/65-percent-support-monthly-2000-checks

Both have impacts but it's more weight with institutional investors, they've got a huge amount of investment

compared to those combined stimulus recipients, if those institutional investors multiplies their invested money

the impact will surely pumped the market, while with stimulus holders, they can also move the market but not

that much.

We need to be considerate here, while I understand your point millions of people have died because of the pandemic and many more have lost their jobs and right now do not have a way to support their family, the pandemic has been terrible for the world and it is a shame that people had to go through in order to learn those lessons that you are speaking of, however I'm not so sure that the lessons they have learned are going to stick for the long term especially if things go back to some semblance of normality during the next months.

It will be wrong to make such claims without knowing exactly how much amount was put by the institutional investors and the individual investors. According to some of the researchers, more than $25 billion from the stimulus checks will be used to purchase Bitcoin in the coming months. I really doubt whether the new influx from institutions is worth more than this amount. Therefore I would say that the current rally is being driven by individuals, who are using their stimulus checks to purchase BTC.

This pandemic crisis brought a lot of positives to crypto.
In its own way, it finds its way to be noticed by the public and for the community to recognize its great potential in the payment industry.
Now, not only in payment aspect but more so on its investment side. BTC holders are keeping their coins mostly for investment options.
In general, this pandemic brought negative and positive results. And when it comes to crypto, positive mostly.

Yes, if this initiative could be adopted and implemented in all countries of the world, it would be much better to go to any store to buy a product and trade in Bitcoin.  Hopefully this initiative will be implemented in all countries of the world soon

Lol, I don't think that's quite what happened.  More like governments across the globe have been providing their citizens with free money in the form of stimulus, and people have been blowing said money on all sorts of speculative investments, bitcoin and other cryptos being among them.  That and big purchases by deep-pocketed companies like MicroStrategy, Tesla, and others have led to the crazy bull market we're in--not that people suddenly realized the fundamental value of bitcoin.

As for what's going to happen to bitcoin (and the altcoin market, too) after COVID-19, I get a queasy feeling in my stomach when I think about what'll happen when interest rates start to rise or if unemployment starts to go up, in addition to the inflation of the USD that I've been expecting for years now.  In other words, if the economy in general gets fucked up bitcoin and all of its little duckling alts are going to suffer.  Massively.

However, I'm hoping for the best.  These have certainly been some of the darkest days of my lifetime, and I've got my fingers crossed that things aren't going to get worse.  Should that be the case, it ought to bode well for bitcoin.

Traditional investor need a place to store their money, that is the point. I mean, when the pandemic came almost traditional market fallen, right? It means most traditional investor lost their money. If they still continue to keep their money whereas the investment place continue to decrease it is just will make they continue lose their money.

This is why, bitcoin is a choice for them to atleast store their money. If they keep money in the bank the inflanation will be the first risk that will be faced. If they keep their money in the traditional market they will also loss their money. So as they will buy bitcoin or gold as alternative, so in my opinion pandemic is caused the price bitcoin pump.

The economy has already suffered as a result of the pandemic and still continues to suffer with some signs of recovery, because governments and the population have already come to terms with the ongoing pandemic and have found ways to continue economic activity. Therefore, after the end of COVID 19, it seems that we should expect an increase in economic activity, but it is not fully clear how this will correlate with the inflated stock market and whether this will lead to another crisis. In theory, in the subsequent crisis, bitcoin will have to behave as a protective asset, but not immediately and not constantly, last year's events about the exchange rate of bitcoin clearly hint at this.

I think there must be a little bit of influence, both positive and negative.

On the positive side, my prediction is that there will be a lot of people who are starting to struggle about cryptocurrency, especially bitcoin, because this is one of the most profitable projects, both in the long and short term. moreover nowadays everyone prefers to make a profit without working hard.
because I'm sure even after this pandemic is over and the world returns to normal but in the economy it will definitely be difficult to return to normal and it takes time and bitcoin is the solution.

On the negative side, I don't think it's too much of a problem even if people start getting jobs that were stopped due to the pandemic and the stores reopened, so this is a comparison of which is more profitable between bitcoin and others for the future.

It also helped a lot of people realize that our way of living can be pushed into a more digitized state and have a better result of our daily living. It pushed most communities to use the technology they have and make the best out of it to avoid direct contact to people. Bitcoin along with other Cryptocurrencies can play a huge role within this world and this governments have to realize that its impact is greater once recognized since it can really push the economical status of a country into a much better one.

Pandemic is still not yet end but the bitcoin is still at a higher value. It is clear that pandemic has a huge impact in bitcoin, through the pandemic, the demand of bitcoin suddenly increasing and many people who lost their job is now working in crypto either doing trade, joining a campaign or just investing and holding for a long term. Also through the pandemic many people become openminded and start to adopt digital currency.

Even do we are covid-19 situation the bitcoin are still growing the prices and not only bitcoin some altcoins only increasing the prices of each. And I still believe that would be having more good news always about bitcoin. And I read some comments also bitcoin will be having increasing the price until the end of year 2021. Maybe it was a prediction only but there are time could be gonna be true, So we must as of now of what happen about bitcoin and we hope also covid-19 well end.

Corporations such as PayPal, Visa and Master are going ahead with plans to fully integrate cryptocurrency to their platforms. It is going to take some time, but the impact will be visible before the end of this year. The involvement of these corporations have expanded the cryptocurrency userbase by manytimes. For example, PayPal has made cryptocurrency accessible to its 361 million registered users. A lot of people who faced difficulty in purchasing and holding BTC can now do that through PayPal. Given these changes, I expect another major rally sometime soon.

This has been the case for many months already, it's not going to be a needle mover anymore. Any price appreciation attributable to this is already factored in at this point. It's going to take massive new buying to continue to drive the price, which isn't going to come from PayPal users who would have already bought in en masse by now.

The last statement triggered most, with pandemic lots of people become openminded and start to explore for opportunities,
where they found Bitcoin or other crypto.

The chance of earning money gives them the interest and now showing good confidence in continuing their goals, pandeminc
open the door and after that more will expect to comes along.

True that but I see the reason why some people might think that the pandemic helped pumped Bitcoin back then since everyone was at home and more people would have invested in Bitcoin then since there was almost a short down of every other aspect of the normal economy but I too don't think that was the case because Bitcoin will always do what it does when the time is right.

Yes, the pandemic is still ongoing, but I don't believe the pandemic is to blame for the rise in bitcoin's price.

As you can see in the news, there are a lot of people who are hyping bitcoin, and there are a lot of institutional investors who are trying to bring a lot of money into it.

Bitcoin is still rising right now, and the pandemic isn't playing a major role in price changes because the market will still determine.

besides all the many people who work from home and choose cryptocurrency, I think a good start yesterday was that more and more large companies are investing in cryptocurrency, with the development of bitcoin this has an impact on trust in bitcoin

In your statement, it is seems that you are emphasizing that this pandemic is the main reason why Bitcoin got spike its price value in the market, based on what I analyze your topic here. If ever it is true, I fully doubt that this pandemic has no relevant or connection into this pandemic of its price. But I can' t deny that a lot of the people in the whole world was definitely got interested to learned how to earn online and most of them realized that cryptocurrency is one of the effective way this matter anyway.

Ive seen the bitcoin price reaches the 3k USD price and this is part of my regrets in life I just made an investment with 100 USD than getting more than that right now the price of the bitcoin already made it the 60k USD and there's a chance it will accumulate more than this and I'm or we are looking forward before the end of the year it touches the 100k price. The bitcoin now is working much hard for the next coming price movement and from the last year, it falls as we see right now it's more grinding on the top agian.

As always, regret always happen after such a situation happened. I have some regrets too, it's not only not buying bitcoin when it dip but I did not trust BNB to be this valuable, I've seen BNB only valued at 5 usd during the correction after the last bull run, I could have already made x100 profit now.

After the dip of the bitcoin the same with other coin it tries to make an investment and because I'm new to the cryptocurrency I'm get afraid to for long and one of my coin by that is the ethereum with a 100$  and the BNB which has a 40$ if I'm not mistaken. Now I try to keep myself holding and keep tight to those coins I think there's a chance to give me a good profit.

Covid-19 is coming to an end because of the vaccine many citizens are now taking in the country. Many countries are restoring their economy back to it normal position where many people are gaining their lost they experienced during the pandemic. Before the end of this month bitcoin will start dumping because many government has demanded for more Money to be print, so that every citizens will start experiencing the impact of the money in the country.

Yet people don't want to take vaccine because they are really afraid of the side-affect they could get after get vaccinated and other bad-speculation of this vaccine. It always happen in our country as well, they are risking their life because they are afraid of something that already been used on majority of people.

Bitcoin won't take affect of this, Bitcoin is still the strongest until at this date.

Yeah.. the governments were just looking for an excuse to start printing money like crazy and they got it. Take the case of United States. The latest stimulus amount to $2 trillion!!! Can you believe it? $2 trillion in banknotes created out of thin air. And US is not the only country. A majority of the world nations (irrespective of whether they are developed nations or the developing ones) have announced big stimulus measures. This is just crazy.

It is to early to claim that covid-19 is near its end. People are just getting to used to live in pandemic and wearing mask, hearing number of cases/death/new restrictions is becoming new normal. There are still to many side effects from all of the known vaccine, and dont forget that the virus is evolving. But Bitcoin ? It is not connected with covid-19 anymore. It has suffered a punch from it in March-April 2020 and recovered from it, despite most of the countries and businesses. "Money to be print" - we all know who usually prints the money and what people do with it. They invest this helicopter money, and Bitcoins is one of the investments = demand will rise = price will rise.

The big stimulus fund that's been added to the economy might look crazy. In reality, the stimulus fund is keeping the economy driven forward without big crisis. Everytime we can't complaint a government for its plan. I would like to rise a question. If this stimulus isn't added to the economy what'll be the situation of the country's citizen as well as how the government could've managed fulfilling the needs of its population.

About printing an extra amount of money to overcome the pandemic is not the worst option, because lockdowns stop the economy, and the state needs to pay its expenses and support its citizens. The most important problem with the economic policy of modern states is that many statesmen believe that printing a large amount of money solves all problems. By the way, I myself believe that the reasonable printing of additional money has a beneficial effect on stimulating economic growth, another question is that excessive enthusiasm for such things gives less and less effect, and eventually ceases to work at all.

This pandemic has been going on for more than one year and of course it has caused many people to lose their jobs. many people have to find other alternatives to earn money, and I think this cryptocurrency is a very appropriate alternative. this will have a good impact on cryptocurrency (but I hope this pandemic is over quickly) ::)

The fact is that different people from different layers of the community lose their jobs during a pandemic, and therefore not everyone will be able to get the opportunity to earn with the help of cryptocurrency. of course, earning with the help of cryptocurrency is not only participation in bounty companies, but also investments, as well as trading in the cryptocurrency market. And for this you need to have not only start-up capital, but also relevant knowledge and, of course, a little experience. Undoubtedly, you can learn everything, but I am sure that most people who have lost their jobs will be able to use cryptocurrency only as a means to accumulate their earnings or in the future, as a reliable storage, but not as a source of income.

I honestly think that Bitcoin’s price surge has nothing to do with the COVID-19 pandemic situation. Even when the pandemic is over, Bitcoin will continue to rise because of the continuous long-term massive adoption of large companies and institutions worldwide. It doesn’t matter when stocks are falling, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will continue to rise in many years to come.

I don't think it's pandemic related.  There will be selling as no bull market will continue forever.  A correction is coming and how deep it'll go? nobody can tell.  How far will it go before the correction?  Nobody can tell.  One good thing is that now BTC is on the radar of quite a lot of people which – some years ago – talked about it like it's nothing and it'll go away soon.  But after 12 years it's possibly fair to say: nah, we've come here to stay, deal with it.  8)

Bitcoin is the most popular among the cryptocurrencies and it’s a high value asset. Bitcoin will eventually recover after the pandemic but it will not be easy. Because bitcoin is still a store of value and have a longterm of gains. Bitcoin’s prices have steady growth until now. It can also be used after pandemic because people are now inclined on using digital currencies.

people nowadays tend to use digital currency ? what is it used for? I don't find people using digital currency except for digital assets only. even though today's technological developments are growing rapidly there are still few people who know digital currency.

Bitcoin been part of the portfolio of many investors during pandemic when the stock market is too low. Now bitcoin been find useful by many as it can easily be accessible by many and now convenient to use in payment and transfer options. We see how bitcoin is able to increase in price in pandemic so what more when once more adoption happens those who are using now can have more profit in the future.

Digital Currency is used for a wide variety of conveniences, either to avail or to pay for something. It could also be liquidated and be invested.
I think you misunderstood cause cryptos is one kind of Digital Assets the same thing as any Digital Product used to reach people and earn a result.
Bitcoin might not be mainstream, but the cashless transaction is relevant today. I think people use Digital Currency more than before.

Relative to the number of people who own crypto, the amount of people using it as a currency is practically immeasurable. It's because the vast majority of people who bought into it because of they hype did so because they were trying to get rich. That means holding it for price appreciation, not spending it.

There are a lot of people that start their investment in crypto, but we should know that crypto investment cant guarantee which is better than stock market or others. Why in the crypto market can give us higher profit than others because if we get loss the amount is higher than stock market. Now there are many bad issue in crypto which made our market is bearish, the price is resistence at 30K USD. I dont know until when the price will go to the top again, the fundamental news is just about the fud. We need some movements to make the market become bullish again.

My thinking after pandemic bitcoin price and it's transection will normal. Because i think in pandemic situations Bitcoin and others cryptocurrencies popularity are increasing. Peoples are depending on online platform. Investment on Bitcoin is very profitable right now. So Huge people using, holding, treading bitcoin.I think it's popularity will increase more and more. So I believe that after pandemic Bitcoin will perform normally.

considering the current conditions, digital transactions are indeed safer. actually bitcoin can answer the problem, but hit the problem of legality. until in the end bitcoin is only practically used as an investment or trade to make money, not as a means of payment. but at least during the pandemic, many people are familiar with bitcoin because of yesterday's hype

I think bitcoin will still be a dream for people who already know the benefits and advantages. Although the value of bitcoin fluctuates. Even after the pandemic, I think bitcoin still has a bright future. More and more people are familiar with bitcoin during the pandemic..because this could be one of the best investments outside of our real world work.

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has also made currency exchange rates in all countries volatile. In addition, the pandemic has also disrupted global financial market conditions.

Then what about crypto currency or bitcoin?

Bitcoin is the most popular crypto asset. Until the middle of this year, the price of bitcoin was recorded to increase.

When viewed from March 2020, the price of bitcoin has skyrocketed to more than double.

Bitcoin has proven to be a safe haven asset. When the corona pandemic emerged until the middle of this year, the price actually increased. On the other hand, other investment products cannot withstand being exposed to COVID-19.

so in my opinion, bitcoin and altcoins will continue to grow and are increasingly popular with people around the world.

and cryptocurrencies are predicted to be the future of finance in the new world order after the COVID-19 pandemic ends.

Even after the pandemic, I think Bitcoin and the market's movement would flow the way it normally does? Just my own opinion because I think that with the exposure Bitcoin and the market has gained during the pandemic, I highly believe that after the pandemic, more people would prefer to choose Bitcoin knowing on how beneficial it is rather than sticking with fiat alone.

The share market has rebounded in recent months to prices pre-covid and the bitcoin market seems as though it is now on an upward trajectory to do the exact same thing, only without the hype being spread by a certain car sales man looking to line his pockets.

While I believe people should invest in a small amount of bitcoin each week, fortnight, month ... just remember it's meant to be used to make online payments securely.

 After pandemic I think nothing change beyond the flow of the Bitcoins cause we all know that Bitcoins or any other Cryptocurrencies are Volatile so there is no worried about in this case and I also believe Bitcoins is the best Cryptocurrencies in our world that looks like nothing can bet. So let's talk about the topic we had about after pandemic in bitcoins, Bitcoins is unstoppable an base on my observation nothing change and the movement was still normal.

Bitcoin has proven to be the most profitable investment during the pandemic, the increasing number of users makes the daily transaction volume of bitcoin reach more than $ 40 billion and of course this is a huge potential that makes many financial companies in the world make bitcoin an asset and product.

Seeing bitcoin's performance during the pandemic actually seems to be getting better, the biggest factor is because of the large number of public figures like Elon Musk and large companies investing in bitcoin, this is what makes bitcoin unaffected by the pandemic.

basically a lot of money that meets the demand for bitcoin, thus increasing its price and current views on crypto which many people are interested in adopting. Of course, the big ones are big companies and countries that adopt and make significant developments

Today I can say the pandemic is to an extent over in my Country and I don't think it has any adverse effect on bitcoin but a positive one, you can also check the market trend on Bitcoin to find out.

What exactly do you mean with going normal, because if I assume that your normal means that they will go down to the price pre-pandemic then I would totally disagree with you because the prices are just too high to fail so it's unlikely that they will ever go do down to that point and I am sure that if the pandemic is over, I am pretty sure that it will increase much more since the people that have used it during the pandemic is definitely going to introduce it to other people.

Not just Bitcoin, the whole cryptocurrency helps us a lot during the time of pandemics especially the nft games or #play2earn games. Crypto helped us to become safe from Coronavirus in terms of passing money using digital money. Usually, virus are transferred thru handshakes or getting contact thru the things touched with virus-infected people. On the other hand crypto also helped jobless people by earning to NFT games.

i am still remember bitcoin price soar after US print infinite dollar to recovery economy activity. alot money looks like come to this market after that , and actually this pandemic give positive effect to crypto market.

while many people start working from home since current pandemic , most of them find an alternative to earn money from online business. and maybe some of them know about bitcoin and crypto market and recognized it as good way to earn money. cryptocurrency trend since pandemic was pretty good and price growth smoothly.

In my opinion, if the covid 19 pandemic ends, the economy will recover, as well as bitcoin which will continue to grow and develop in a better direction, because during the pandemic many people have been involved.
and feel the benefits of bitcoin although with different goals.

It is true that during the pandemic many activities are carried out online, such as studying and working. but these activities have nothing to do with bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. many people invest in bitcoin not because of the increasing popularity of online platforms, but because more and more people are realizing the importance of investing in difficult situations like these.

The end of the covid-19 pandemic is unpredictable.  The constant evolution of variants that are virtually impossible to fight off with a vaccine, almost Delta has done more harm.  The government of each country is looking for ways to prevent the epidemic from spreading in the community, almost investing a lot of human resources for this serious problem, leading to a shortage in both quantity and passive in re-administration.  economy.  .  It has been almost 2 years that covid attacked and destroyed the world.  But it doesn't seem to be over yet.  I think it will take a long time to recover in terms of human, economic, social and commercial.  Developing countries will take longer.  Bitcoin will be the fastest method of adoption to convert the passive to active state to increase the ability to recover quickly, limiting pressure on the authorities.

Bitcoin already recovered pretty much, I guess that can be said with certainty. Yes it is not back at its ATH, but come on it is still remarkable where we are at now. As for the economy, that remains to be seen and is not a thing that will become obvious or evident within a year or two. A big crash can also come with a massive delay, maybe even five years until the system collapses because it was overburdened with debt during the pandemic. Debt that is going to greatly exceed any economic growth as most of the debt was put into speculative assets that only increase value on paper, but are not contributing to real economic growth the same way investments in R&D would probably do.

in fact some people or beginners are more familiar with bitcoin after this pandemic took place. this is not without reason because indeed everyone is affected both financially and in terms of the work they do is hampered. from there they started thinking about getting income without having to leave the house, and one of the simple reasons I think from there they know bitcoin.
indeed if you look in the mirror from there it seems like adopting bitcoin just because you are greedy and want to get money instantly, but that's how they initially knew bitcoin regardless of who wanted to learn or not here everything returned to their respective perspectives.

During the initial days of pandemic bitcoin was under hard attack. The market was found to be low same as rest of the world market and othe forms of stock investment. Slowly it started to recover and as a result bitcoin started to progress when people started to know more about bitcoin.

During the pandemic more volume of fresh money got into the market through the newbies. This got continued along with the positive news from large scale corporate companies. Now too the market is quite good with real growth caused out of better knowledge about the market and purpose of cryptocurrencies.

We cant really even sure that we do really blame out corona virus pandemic had been the reason on why the market had plummet out considering that we are almost 2 years on this pandemic situation but the

the price hadnt really go down that much (28k) as far as i remember which i can say that time was the best time for you to get in because if we do consider or check out the current price then we could definitely say

that we are really reaping off profits now and i dont really see for this pandemic situation had affected that much the crypto market specially directly with Bitcoin.

Judging from the madness that is still happening in many developing countries, i am sure this pandemic will not end, we will live side by side with it forever.  Bitcoin will remain the favorite of investors, the bitcoin trend will not subside.  we will continue to see people talking about bitcoin and trying to invest in it during this pandemic.

people say if bitcoin will grow while pandemic attack us. i think, people will use this word because they just play on crypto. i never heard in my place if bitcoin help them as good as it can.
and its not bad if user say if they still helped cause of bitcoin, im sure if there no effect give to user, unless they have anxiety on real life.

When the pandemic and bitcoin grew, we admit that many new people in the crypto world were lucky, but besides that, many of them were frustrated. Those who are lucky will certainly adore bitcoin for changing their lives so suddenly. but despite the intervention of whales when a bullrun occurs, this is precisely what makes bitcoin more attractive with its fluctuations that are so pronounced

Wait who attacks bitcoin ? why does become "Under Hard Attack"? i have not notices someone harder than FUDders attacking bitcoin then?

Yes there are plenty of new investors comes when the pandemic strikes , specially those who losses their Job in real life and wanted to find new profiteering on line.

The number of companies closing their businesses, especially those in the financial sector, makes them choose to switch money to bitcoin, we can see this from various news stories on Bloomberg or Yahoo finance that continue to report on companies investing in bitcoin.

I have known Bitcoin a few years ago but I do admit that the development of Bitcoin in my circle of friends has been very rapid since the pandemic came.  I remember very well that initially my friends were not interested in crypto and now 5 out of 10 of my friends already have their own portfolios.  I believe this will continue until the government will be forced to accept its presence even if it is only considered a commodity.

this is a positive impact and makes the best use of the situation in all forms of events such as this pandemic.
they are looking for new alternatives for their survival. at least this is better than those who just continue to lament their fate during the pandemic.
indeed there is no guarantee for beginners to benefit directly here but at least they dare to try and get out of the zone that is not profitable for them

Global investors are busy withdrawing their investments in world stock exchanges during the outbreak of the corona virus (covid-19) pandemic.  Instead, they shift their investment from equities or stocks to bitcoin. The recent price increase has been exploited by those who have been investing in stocks or even other products to participate in transactions in crypto trading.  Because bitcoin has proven to be ineffective in the corona economic recession because its status as a safe haven asset class has been tested again.  no words give up for Bitcoin

The epidemic has a small impact on Bitcoin. When the epidemic broke out all over the world, it did not stop people's enthusiasm for buying Bitcoin. The epidemic did not spread on the Internet or the blockchain. People can still buy or sell their own bitcoins freely. Bitcoin, many people who have lost their jobs can continue to use Bitcoin to earn wealth! This is exciting!

True, but the pandemic has made bitcoin the most popular because people are now looking for ways to make money online. When we used to talk about bitcoin, they would immediately tell us that it was a scam and that it was used for illegal activities, but it has now been erased! They now see bitcoin as an investment because the price is so high and we want to earn one. Even after the pandemic, the price of bitcoin remains high, and most people want to invest in it.

that is a contradicting statement. First you say this pandemic has had little impact on bitcoin. secondly you said a lot of people lost their jobs and used bitcoin to get rich. I agree more with the second statement, many people lose their jobs then they turn to crypto to make this job an alternative job. that means this pandemic has had a huge impact on bitcoin's popularity.

Lol no. Pandemic really helps Bitcoins appreciation. Aside from having extra income through day trading, many people learned about it in lockdowns. They learned the importance of having less contact to money to avoid the spread of virus and thats where digital money kicks in. This pandemic also helps the printing spree that leads to high inflation rate and this is where digital assets saves you. Bitcoin as a store of value helps you save without the risk of inflation.
