Buy now... or on July 31st?

[richardsNY]

If you want to buy, wait for all this bad news are over, because we might have one more dip before segwit be activated.

Might isn't reason enough to wait with buying. In the same way that people expect the price to go down by the first of August, it may very well go up big time. In order to avoid missing out on a potential increase, it would be a wise decision to buy yourself a certain percentage of coins at current levels, and leave the rest of your fiat aside for when the price goes down. In case the price goes up, you'll benefit because you already bought yourself some coins. In case the price goes down, you have enough fiat aside to start buying more coins, but now at discount prices. It will help you in averaging down your initial buying price. It's a win win situation.

It looks like the biggest uncertainties will be resolved this Friday, July 21st. With far above 80% support for SegWit2x, August 1st should not matter anymore (as BIP 148 will not trigger).

That would mean between now and Thursday should be the best time to buy.

On the other hand, August 1st is passed around everywhere as the "day of doom." Many uninformed people out there. So maybe wait till July 31st to buy? And will there be any risks left after Segwit is activated later this week?

The key question is: How much FUD will be left in the market after Friday...?

The price is already recovering, hitting the $2800 limit. You should have bought when the FUD really affected bitcoin holders and panic sold even with a loss. But there might be another round of price dipping a few days or a day before August 1. That would be another buying time.

Looks like another possible split will happen. I am not sure if BitcoinCash is just FUD or most likely will go on separate way. Still I don't think we fall down below $2000 again, $2400 is a big discount already.

No one can predict the exact price on July 31, but those who wanted to buy cheap coins, they have already done so. For interest, you can wait and observe what will happen to the price and in case of an optimal mark you can buy coins at an attractive price.

I will wait for july 31st because in that date, i will see if the price of bitcoin will rise or not because i will base on the hype so i can make fast profits from buying and holding it for a few days but if the price will go down after i bought it then i will just use that bitcoin in trading so i can recover my loss from buying at the top.

[Dimelord]

After friday,there would be no need to spread FUD since every dust would have settled by that time.You could even buy bitcoins since its not too late but if you miss the chance before friday,then you would have to regret for your decision since you would have missed the train.Don't do too late to buy bitcoins.Better buy it now itself.

You should avoid transaction near 1st August. It is not advisable. Regarding buying more I think this is the best time to buy more Bitcoin and secure them in a wallet. But if you are uncertain, you can buy in August as well because Bitcoin will remain profitable if being hold for long term no matter at what price you bought.

No body will guess what price will be there on July 31st. so you really have the plan to buy coins then buy coins last week of this month it is a good time to buy all coins. 

If You would ask me I will anwer and suggest for you to buy bitcoin now because the value of the bitcoin now is a little bit lower,that is why when the time that the value of the bitcoin becomea higher that is the time that you can sell your bitcoin.

[SirLancelot]

The best time for those who have not yet entered the crypto currency market is to wait for Bitcoin to become 1,800 dollars or so. As soon as this happens, you need to buy. Market analysts predict Bitcoin by the end of the year a rate of 4,500 US dollars.

If you have faith in potential of bitcoins and if you can hold them till the end of the year then I think you can buy even at current price as in long term it will only give you profits as price is going higher now so may be in next few days we may not see lower price so its a good time to buy now.

The bitcoin price has once again started growing up in this scenario it is better to buy it now, who knows what will be the price of bitcoin on july 31. I agree with you that if someone can hold the bitcoin for a long term at least till the end of this year they can get a great compensation against their holdings.

BUY NOW!!!

Price will continue to go up.

There are some rumors about chain split and on August 1st such as BitcoinABC which forks off to create a new chain and network with a currency named bitcoin cash (BCC). Its price is $396 on ViaBTC futures right now and the market cap nearly $10 billion, they stated everyone who has private keys will be receive BCC on August 1st as well, not bad at all I guess. But, this uncertain news may cause a little drop of bitcoin price, so I would suggest to wait for the biggest dip on August to buy bitcoin.

BUY and HOLD (I don't like hodl) You don't want to buy at 5000 do you 

The waves are coming.  Get ready for the ride.

"Buy and hold" would work 10 days ago but today the price is complicated to consider. We need to wait for another dump so that we can get cheap bitcoin soon for long term ideas.

But lol it would never happen like that as you said when it would happen so change my name. It was just an opportunity that bitcoin was giving to people now wait for a high prices of bitcoin it would reach to $4000 USD soon as possible. So, in my opinion I would tell you that it is the time to buy bitcoin because it is still not enough time. After 1 August it would go to $3500.

I prefer for you to buy now.Becaus the value of the bitcoin is not too high today and I know that it will be higher soon.Then ig you buy now with the less value you can sell it with the higher value in the futite in that way you can have yoir return on investment.

[bitcoin31]

If you want to buy bitcoin you can can do this but invest only you can afford to lose and for sure after this month the price of bitcoin will increase so its better to buy more bitcoin in the month of august 1.  Dont invest all your money in one investment you spread it to others.

[fanbeila]

Already FUD is getting reduced as most of the investors have already started to realize that hard fork is not going to occur.They have started to buy bitcoins inorder to avoid chance of missing them.So you could buy it now or atleast on july 31st but if you delay than that,then probably you would be the loser since bitcoin price would go high in rocket speed.

to find the answer to your question here or in the future if you read this comment you should always ask yourself one thing. why did the price drop? and how will it reverse?

in this case the drop was because of a lot of FUD that caused a lot of panic from a possible split. then when price reached the bottom and also when the signalling for the soft fork started, the price recovered.
my expectation is that as the signalling grows and support becomes stronger the price will also keep rising. and as the soft fork locks in with a huge support the price will rise up a lot and will do it fast.

this will happen before July 31st and has already started the first step.

All is because of investors. When they get panicked, there is tremendous increase in selling which somehow drops the prices. Forks also play very crucial role in all this game. Regarding forks, I have same opinion. Growth in signaling and increase in support lead to pump in values and same is going to happen this time.

Well it was a great opportunity that most of the people have missed due to vagary of bitcoin crash but I think yesterday and today’s price is enough to disillusion about bitcoin. What we see today is the price after panic selling in the market, which has been created by a group of individuals to achieve their goals. If there was no panic selling then the price would have remained around $2500.

Well your guess is accurate but buying bitcoin among 1 august (1-2 days before or after it) is very riskful investment. If I were you, I would wait until the market calm down.

On that date all the exchangers have made an announcement not to make any transactions, and they will not be liable in case of spli or worse.
Waiting for normal is better.

Don’t make people afraid when trying buying bitcoin. If you want to know the perfect time to buy the bitcoin let me tell you, this weak is much better to buy bitcoins because after this weak the prices will rise again like normal and then you will wait of your profitable value of price.

Yes you are right buying now is more better than any other thing if anyone will want to get the profit and they will wait for longer then they will lose the good time as after some days we all know that the price of it will be much higher than today.

I will rather suggest to buy now because on 1st Aug it is more likely to happen that its value will increase and keep on increase. If you buy now you will have to use some more money than those who bought it earlier because its value has increased. And by the end of this month or the start of august it will increase more and then all you will have to do is to wait for price to increase as more as you want and then sell them to get profit.

[sunsilk]

Wait for a little more, the price lowered at $2,673.

We saw it pumped at $2,800 and I was expecting that it will go through $2,900 but it didn't happened.

Buying scenario is about to happen soon, after this fork.
