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

[marketone]

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

Yes, there are many people who are holding bitcoin to long to dump the bitcoin when ever their target price reach. Wait till until when it moves to downwards because now bitcoin reaches all time high so many people who don't have patience will sell their bitcoins.

Again I don`t know what to think, price is rising and who expected price to be +2000 so soon? Is there an end of this rise? Looks like this train don`t plan to stop anytime soon, I thought that we will see correction long time ago, but price is continually rising since we entered in this year.
Is it worth it to buy coins now? It`s a big risk to buy on this price, but what if price go even higher? To wait price to fall, will it happen at all? Once again i`m getting very confused when I try to predict the price of bitcoin, after few minutes I get lost in all possibilities.

OK I think there are 2 opposite things happening now.

btc is way undervalued for where it should be circa 10K. This is a catch up

Within that catch up there will be several corrections.

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

the correct question is how many more times are you going to wait! you have already missed a lot of chance to buy bitcoin and you are still thinking about waiting until it drops to some number.
will you accept the risk of missing out on another $500 rise? if so then wait.

Unlike the price increase and decrease with bitcoin, it's good to buy as much that's affordable. Even now it looks big for a common men, but trying to buy and hold the small portion that is affordable gives a assured profit in the later years, because price varies based on the increasing demand happening due to increase of users.

[DrGuns4Hands]

Yes, it is worth buying bitcoins. If you afford to buy more bitcoins? Go buy as much as you can. Keep it and hold it for a long run because it's worth it.  But in my standpoint, I will wait for the cryptocurrency to be it's low key the I will buy more and more as much as I can afford it. And I will just keep it the way I wanted to be

Well in my own opinion its not a good idea to buy bitcoins right now because this time i am thinking about the same as last year and other year that there are trading site was hack that can affect the price too much. so becareful of deciding so you will not regret in the future..

Latitude kindness no longer wait. Probably all the same what happened to you was last summer, not only a hacker attack but also a fraud with the administration itself.

It is ok to be pessimist but do not look at the shorter view.  Try to look at the whole picture.  Bitcoin might go down in price due to some events and FUD that may happen but, look at the supply of bitcoin, plus the adoption.  These two factor will secure your investment and profit until the market is saturated.  So I guess, there is nothing wrong if you buy Bitcoin at $2000.

Remeber for the newbies one does not have to buy a whole bitcoin. Start off with what you can if that is only a .1 or even .05 it will slowly grow over time. Never too late to vet in the game and start seeing that account rise!

[lucasl91]

if you are planning on holding for long term (up to a few years)  then yes you can buy now, it wouldn't surprise me if bitcoin reaches 4k or 5k this year and by around the next halving will be at 10k+!

 Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

None of that has to do with taking gambling advice from uneducated people....

 The key difference between investing and gambling is risk mitigation and there are a number of strategies that can be used when purchasing Bitcoin (yes, even at $2000) to mitigate the risk.  So all of those quotes are pertinent; especially the last one, dream killer.

instead of asking a bunch of random people on the internet, go educate yourself about bitcoin. take a look at how it works, what it offers, the security, the decentralization, go find out what these mean. then try to get a feeling of how scarce bitcoin really is. don't let the big number fool you, it is scarce.

and finally learn what supply and demand means. and figure out how demand is changing over time. is it increasing? decreasing? no change?

[freedomno1]

Maybe it depends what you plan on doing with them, as a sidenote just realized back in the day when BTC was 90 a coin it peaked at 250
Eth was at 90 a few weeks ago now 200 so it's not at the absolute top if their is a correlation but near a higher end of the pricing spectrum.
That said it's better to just buy and HODL ^^.

[senyorito123]

If you want to hodl then you should think carefully and analyzed the situation if its really worth to stake by now since price is pretty huge and we can't fully trust this flactuation since the movement of it is currently unpredictable ang migh you gonna lose some money for certain bad decision. But if you will used your BTC for good and you want to trade with alts then go for it so that you have a huge chance to multiply so that you can earn more. But bare in your mind that this current situation of bitcoins rise is pretty much good but dangerous.

Asking people is one way of educating oneself.  FYI, there are lots of information in the internet that are not true.  So having different view from different people in different walks of life is better than reading a piece of professionally written document with self input thought.  I bet OP will read stuff and articles about his question.

Buying now or not is an individual choice as if you can afford to buy them and if you feel that price can rise in future then you can go for it as doing your own research is more important rather then depending on other's advice and to be honest no one knows what exactly will happen in coming days so if you think that price can go higher then you can start buying them now.
