Is it worth buying bitcoins now? (2000$ /btc)

Hello,

I was wondering if it was worth it to buy bitcoins right now at the price of $2000,- /btc.
I can also wait till it drops to maybe 1800$-1900$, but would that make a huge difference?

I'm now just holding my coins, but im not making really good profits as I only have around 0.5BTC

It depends on how much you want to buy.

If we speek of 0.5 btc, 2000 or 1800 - there is not much difference.
But if you buy 10 btc - I would wait, I think the price will decrease by a correction to 1800

yes, im nit going to buy much this time.

When the correction is happening i will buy more

Bitfinex again trades with significant gap hence we can expect other exchanges to follow them. It means prices may reach $2100 or $2200 before finding any corrections and your waiting for $1900 may last infinitely. Buying now for smaller quantity and if you get chances buy again at $1900 is the way I will be handling current situation if I were you.

If you want to chance it, we could see a correction to $1500ish in the near future but this is Bitcoin, you never know. If you're going to hold long term, best to buy now or wait for a dip to buy. You can't have continuous rises without drops, when and how much are the questions.

Always a good time to buy and continue to go long real long.

Well, as far I can help, I would advise you to buy it for long. I have recently bought some Bitcoin for long-term, also investing a lot in Bitcoin CFDs and it's all the way up.

I'm waiting for $200 ever since I joined Bitcoin community yet haven't seen such a price, even though I know Bitcoin was meant to grow over time but these prices are too artificial in my book, they're not natural.
I'm going to wait for a drop back to sub $1500 but if that doesn't happen in one more month I'll start accumulating bits by bits like usual no matter the price.

Its been a long time when i was saw the price at $1,600 not active these few weeks ago due to busy at new business here in my country.
I was shock to see that the price was touch $2,000 value..
I think it is hard to decide if its still good and worth it to buy right now because of the price..
But we know the price can be increase more in the future.

I personally tend to say that it's better to wait, but if you really want to increase your coin holdings, then go ahead and buy at current levels. Important to note is that you should not go all in. Best is to use 25% of your capital to buy at current levels, and have the rest aside for when the price happens to go down. Another important thing that you must understand, is that if you do happen to buy at current levels, you should accept taking the risk of seeing the price fall down with a few hundred bucks in case the price corrects. It's a peak you're buying at, don't forget that.

you hold 0,5 bitcoin this nor is right time to sell
because this now is level resistance price, only wait few time bitcoin price can down

not good is bitcoin price over 2000 bitcoin you buy much bitcoin

If you can hold several years without sweating then yes

Still worth it to buy bitcoin these days because the price i think it can stay or keep increasing because we are in new level and it is not the same as before that if the price was increase or touch with a high price many traders are selling but for now looks like even they are selling huge amount sooner the price will increase back to normal and increase much more sooner..
Its also because of japan that bitcoin was legal.. So i think its still worth it to buy bitcoins because there is a new goal that we can touch and its been a long time before this year end..

I just bought $50 worth--no regrets on this end! Nice to see the $2000 mark breached, finally. As always, I should have kept everything I had...but I used bitcoin as a currency. That's the big irony here. It's supposed to be money people spend, but no one wants to do that (myself included) when the price keeps going up.

I already bought back all the coins I sold before prices hits $1900 and now if I sell I can still profit but I'm not going to and will keep holding them for at least another year or so, I'm buying now even if drop down to zero I will keep buying because I don't really care about the market value any more.
All I care now is the stability of the network, I want to be able to have confirmation under 30 minutes with paying 180sats/b I want my transactions to confirm fast because all of them are legit and needed. $1B 24 hours volume is a record though how much is fake I can't tell.

People are asking this exact same question since the price was lower than $100.

If you don't see everyone talking about Bitcoin and no potential for customer growth, then it is not a good time, otherwise, it is.

If you think too much next topic will be is it worth buying bitcoins at $10000/btc?

If you're a long-termer with a strong belief in Bitcoin then any price is a good entry. Myself, I'm still hoping to come into some decent money soon, so of course I am hoping it comes down from its current ATH. However, any price won't stop me from wading in if I get the chance to buy significantly.

I think now is not a good time to buy, when people expecting it will reach 2000$ usually we will see a lot of dumping, so you need to wait a while for bitcoin to stabilize, but if you want to buy and invest for a long time then you can buy it
