I'd like to get some bitcoins. Is now a good time to do so?

Bitcoin is all set to make strong up move to 1000 dollar levels. You can look at the developments and uncertainties in the global economy. Buy bitcoin each week, add slowly so you can average your buy price. And then hold for long term. You will surprised at the value of bitcoin in 10 to 20 years time from now.

Honestly there is still no assurance that the price will continues to rise soon we are heard many news here and outside of this forum but it is not the case that the price of bitcoin will continue to increase.. the price of bitcoin will always depends in demand and supply.. and for me i just relaying in old chart fluctuate before there is similarity fluctuate and i feel that the price of bitcoin soon will decrease.. and increase again before christmass and we will experience large crash on january.. this is just my own speculation.. anytime fluctuate can be change.

We never know that at what point the bitcoin market will start backward flow, but from the expectation of bitcoin users we can predict about bitcoin. As still people are thinking that the price of bitcoin is going to increase more and more therefore I think still there is time to take the risk and invest in bitcoin to get some profit.

Honestly it's not so easy to say correct answer on your wuestion nowdays. Price is stable, another factor halving and people's worry about no profitable mining anymore. With this situation, I think that price won't come down or if it'll happen than this will be fixed soon and bitcoin will continue to rise. Also it's price is changing very often from 730 to 750, in minutes. I think there is no reason of bitcoin's price fall.

I'm planning on getting a fraction of a bitcoin. Maybe about 1/4 or 1/8 BTC just to fill my wallet with something. Is now a good time to do so?

currently, bitcoin is trending within $700 and $745! What this mean compared to some month back is; bitcoin has become expensive and not good time to buy and keep. I am planning to buy when bitcoin is a little above 625 because the best time to buy like others market or trading's is that we should buy when assets are low and sells when it is high.

You have good prediction. The bitcoin price is still around $750 now. It has been stable for some time.

It is not and plummeted to $729 this morning. So it is far from being stable at this point.

In my humble opinion, Bitcoin should be added to your portfolio right now because is price has just stabilized and it is consolidating for a breakout.
Bitcoin can rally at any time.

Agree. However, I find that Bitcoin price can still increase more in a few months later. There are too many things happen to the ecosystem nowadays which considerably affect Bitcoin. Since Trump became the USA president, we expect to see more impact on Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency system. If you buy Bitcoin right now, you can have some profit from it. trust me

There is no way to tell for certain. But I would suggest you to buy now, as the price is also increasing in a stable manner, so profitable for short-term trading, I guess. Its going wonders in minutes, and I have seen it grow for a long time from the middle of this year. The halving comes much later, so if you can buy and save until then, you are in for a great profit. Really your choice, though. But some factors to consider are the news of Bitcoin in China, and Donald Trump becoming President of USA, they are some chief factors and these factors are going to increase the price of Bitcoins soon enough.

The price performance of the bitcoin is quite good. It does not rise a lot in a day or two. it is rising quite slowly.

Yeah, and don't have to worry for the growth of the bitcoin. Because the growth of the bitcoin is the most profitable and all those who believe in the bitcoin will definitely be given a tremendous advantage. I never get a very good profit and it makes my life greatly helped by the presence in the life of your bitcoin. Only make purchases when the price is low and sell them when the bitcoin price bitcoin high (save and sell it when high)

Buying now is probably okay as long as you plan to hold it long term. But if you want a short term profit, you may be better off waiting for a drop in price since we are now at around $760 per Bitcoin after a recent increase.

i think we should wait for a moment because i think the price will be down and we can wait to see how much the down price so we can decide in what price we want to buy. or if you already to buy, you can hold it for a while to see the price is back to increase.

[Zigsss]

If you were earlier it would be nicer but right now is also still good and you can still make some good money with the bitcoin right now due to the fact the market is still growing.

[BlockchainOS]

always good to have some bitcoins!
personal opinion 

[btcdiggingmaster]

If you don't have any bitcoins your wallet just get some coin for you and fill your wallet, but don't buy bitcoin more which you cannot afford because nobody don't know how the price will be in next hour, as per now the price is good and may be many people are predicting definitely bitcoin price will increase.

Current prices are quite on the higher side if you ask me, but if you don't have any coins, and don't want to wait for the price to go down, then you can buy yourself some coins.

However, it's wise to just use like 10-25% of the money that you can freely use for investment purposes. The other part of the money can be used in case the price happens to go down.

If the price goes up, you'll benefit since you already have a certain amount of coins, and when the price goes down, you'll benefit by buying all the way down and lower your average buying price.

You will benefit from the price going in any direction. That's how you as a smart trader/investor should approach the current volatility. Making profits is the only thing that counts.

i say it depends on what you are planning to get out of investing in bitcoin. some people want to trade it daily or even in short term by buying low and selling when there is  a flash rise and what you said works for them.

but if you want to become a bitcoin hodler like me what you described doesn't matter much you should buy at once and hodl it long term. and of course it is best if you could buy in a dip because it simply means more profit but as a long term hodler and someone who can't spend time watching the market and keeping coins in hot wallet or money at hand it becomes tough to buy in dips.

You don't know the price in the next hour, that's for sure. But I'm also sure that the price in the next hour wouldn't have any significant difference for you to lose a lot of money or make your investment go to waste, assuming that you don't hold thousands of bitcoins like most of us. The price of bitcoin would decrease in just a matter of an hour or a day. It would take a week or so for the price of bitcoin to increase significant enough to make us lose money. People wouldn't let their investment just die like that.

Yeah and personally I like that growth rather than a sudden fall or sudden rise, sometimes I feel that we should buy as many bitcoins as possible whenever we have spare money or fiat and just hold them (yeah its hard to not spend them since gambling waits like a open mouth crocodile ) but if you succeed in holding them you will earn a lot in future.

Actually, Every time is a good time to buy bitcoins, Considering that it is increasing timely so the sooner the better.

Yes there are many temptations out there that's why sometimes we can't help spending  it however if you truly have a goal you will sacrifice that short period of pleasure for your goal to be realized and successful. So just throw away your not so productive desires and just hold onto your coins because it has a higher chance to be profitable

Yeah it will be better to just buy with your spare money because this is a investment it has its risks so if you don't have that spare money you gotta earn it yourself.
Well its an investment you chose so its a common thing that you will believe its profitable.

And yeah being Christmas now on our head its pretty simple to guess that the market will go bonkers in the coming days but yeah the best time to buy bitcoins is around march because from what I have seen around march or so the price remains low.

Don't get me wrong, even if you buy now you will surely have times to sell at much higher rates for sure.

[South Park]

That depends, if your reason to get bitcoin is just because you want something in your wallet, maybe it would be a good idea to postpone it since that is not really a reason, if your reasons are trading, investment or saving then it seems a good time to buy.

[iamTom123]

Bitcoin has now proven to us that this is the digital currency that can stay for long and can be able to bounce back once it faced walls. I am sure that many people may feel bad to think that they got many opportunities to get Bitcoin when the value is not yet that high...it is now projected to reach $800 soon and maybe heading back to $1200 level, a level it once got into. Long live Bitcoin!
