Anyone who bought coin under $18,000 BTC, will look like a genius soon

[deisik]

Wait till this really starts to go up we will all look like genius.

I love waking up everyday to new all-time highs, but this euphoria is getting pretty tangible. I'm seeing lots of these threads. The last couple posted today predicted a 50 trillion dollar market cap within a year, and prices of up to $60,000. And you are saying that buying anything under $18,000 will make us look like geniuses, so that means you expect much, much higher prices than that.

Maybe the time for a nice, fat correction is coming soon.

I think a correction is due soon. These prices seem to be a pump by whales. If so, they will be dumping soon. I still think bitcoin is going to keep going up in price overall, but this seems too quick

And I have an idea

That Bitcoin is pumped right now specifically to make people move funds from certain altocoins. If you look at the Litecoin price as of recent, it is almost stuck in a narrow range between 45-46 dollars per coin, though it obviously goes down in bitcoins. This looks pretty strange to me, as though someone deliberately tried to make this coin look very unappealing by, first, sort of freezing its price in dollars, and, then, by making it go down in bitcoins. Personally, if Litecoin went down in dollars, I would most certainly buy more of it, but I can't buy because its price is virtually stuck in that range. But I am ready to wait patiently as much as needed

Intresting point of view.
I read about way to control portfolio investments with similar idea - in period of time sold stocks that gave most of profit and buyed that did not do it yet. It is strategy works on growing market. So if market will continie grow it is good way to maximize profit.

The higher the price is going up, the more respect I have for those who have started buying and holding their coins at the time the value was just a few bucks a piece. Imagine how things must feel when at some point the price reaches the $10,000 level for the first time, and you look at your total Bitcoin wealth while thinking back at their initial purchasing price -- that must be the most satisfying feeling on earth.

[maokoto]

More so those who did not even bought them, but earned them by fauceting, posting, doing small tasks and trading. That would be very satisfying.

Although it would have even better to buy a lot cheap ... for sure

How things are going we will get to 10.000$ very soon, and that is not a joke. Some predictions from experts that next year bitcoin will be over 10k are looking very possible in this moment, every day is new all times high, what kind of power we wish to see more. If couple big countries follow Japan, Australia and legalize bitcoin I can`t see that something can stop bitcoin on its way to 10k and later too much more.
Anyone who bought bitcoin will be in advantage, no matter on which price bitcoin was bought, important is that you have it. At the moment early adopters are looking like genius now, for 10 year we will be early adopters and level genius but how we going to call people that are here since 2010? Some wise asses we are here, I hope year will be luck as this year was.

There's a bit more to the story. There may be somewhat of an exodus happening from unregulated exchanges after what happened to BTC-e -- especially from Bitfinex, who just said they will soon be prohibiting US customers. The only way out of the exchange is in coins, since they have no fiat banking anymore. Since they lost banking in March or April, the supply of Tether has increased by more than 6x, which is also very suspicious.

i believe bitfinex started this after the rise has happened for a while. so it shouldn't have to do anything with their new rules regarding US citizens.

I'm not saying that Bitfinex is purely responsible, but may be a large contributing force in the context of the broader uptrend. Bitfinex is the largest exchange in the West, so it can't be ignored that 1) they have no working fiat withdrawals, and 2) US customers need to exit their exchange. So this should definitely push the price up.

Tether can be used to soften this effect, by moving USD obligations to other exchanges (hence the huge recent increase in supply).

I think that below $18,000 price for bitcoin is too much and i can say that only below $5,000 can be happy soon because we are getting closer and closer to that price and if you will buy below from that price and hold it for long term then you can still earn a lot of money from that investment. Just keep buying bitcoin and don't forget to hold it for long term.

It does not need time you can buy bitcoin anytime. In my opinion those who bought earlier are real lucky ones. And if someone buys them right now he will also be considered as lucky one because its values is not much according to its future. Where it will worth that much that a normal person will not b able to buy them easily. So buy it if you can.

I think you are right for most parts. As i am sure there are people influencing the market to benefit there agenda. That's what they call whales in crypto trading. When whales sell there coins, they move a large portion and many people will panic sell and follow. So be assured that some smart guys are getting ridiculously richer every year and i know it ain't me

[namjey]

very simple buy now and wait and watch how your dollors triple!!! btw I bought 1.3 btc today:)

[CryptoBry]

Not just actually a genius but a person who is wiser and wealthier. I am really hoping/wishing that Bitcoin would go on and on and will not retract what it already gained so far. I know that there will be some corrections but the trend should be up and up and away.

We should be happy that Bitcoin has gone to become a fulfilled promise for many people. I am sure that many are so happy with the continuing increase of their Bitcoin's value.

Bitcoin is the real genius here and the man who introduced to all of us!

[Cacingkemi]

Genius yeah that's right. by the way For BTC prices we all expect all the best, but up to 18K $ year later it will not be that much. Most only up to 10K $.  If two years ahead there is to possible BTC prices reach up to 30K $ hope for the best. Just my predict

Who knows? the bitcoin price spiking like crazy as of now and no one predicted that yet  maybe you were saying that bitcoin is impossible to reach $18,000 within this years but there's a damn chance. no obvious reason to why bitcoin will stick below $10,000 . Be optimistic

[gabmen]

I wouldn't really expect that. Let's see after corrections are made but even after that it's not really that wise to expect that we'll even exceed 10k that quick much more 18k. Personally, even with this quick price hike, i'm still not going to be complacent.

[Cranidos]

Well I think at any price, we will look like geniuses when we buy Bitcoin. Bitcoin is perceived to go even higher as time goes by so just simply buying no matter the price is, I will consider them as genius. This is because they are smart enough to see the potential of Bitcoin when some people say that Bitcoin is just a joke. At some point in time, these people saying that Bitcoin is a joke will definitely eat their own words. So do you have a Bitcoin at any amount? Then you are a genius!

[ajmapalo22]

It's pretty good knowing when you wake up one day your $3000 worth of bitcoin become $18,000...Too ambitious in the eye of some people but in bitcoin everything is possible..We all know bitcoin started from merely $10 and look at now the value range to $4000 - $4500 and continuously growing nothing is impossible with bitcoin I think that is one reason why people keep on holding their coins and waiting for the big shot for bitcoin.

[severaldetails]

The first thing I do in the morning is look at the bitcoin chart.
Everyday I somehow expect a setback, but it does not come.
When we keep having the same speed as we have now this might actually happen that 18K are reachable somewhen next year.
By the way, what happened with the ETF?

I haven't accumulated enough to feel the euphoria of these ATHs; perhaps a slight tinge of regret that I cannot buy any or am not earning them quickly enough. But far from feeling too bad about it, it's just pushing me to reach my personal target of 1 BTC in savings by the end of the year. If it ever reaches even $10,000 by early 2018, I'll consider myself an absolute genius for ensuring I reached my goal before then.

Big fat correction? You bet! Been holding off earnings for a few weeks and hoping to request them when the inevitable, if temporary, correction comes.

[joseafonso123az]

$18,000 in BTC is a lot of money. I think bitcoin will reach there because it has the potential to reach there, but not so soon. I think people who are buying bitcoin with the price that is now and hold them some years, will have lots of gains, but investing when it will be valued 18,000$ you have to have a big money account with fiat.

There is another allegedly "side" effect

When Bitcoin goes for a major correction (that is set to happen one day anyway, though we can't know for sure when exactly), altcoins are likely to plunge along with Bitcoin as well, and that will likely be the right moment to buy them up in massive amounts until the dust settles and they rebound strongly to their recent prices. I don't say that the current pumping aims specifically at that, this may just be an unintended effect that a Bitcoin correction would probably cause to happen but that doesn't mean either that we shouldn't grab at the opportunity

[farhaan]

I don't really understand why you specifically selected $18,000.Bitcoin price is almost $4000 today and it is soon expected to cross $5000.People who bought bitcoins at $1800 would think that people who bought at $1000 this january as wise and people who bought at $3000 would think people who had bought at $1800 as wise and it would continue in this process.But i would say that all people who had bought bitcoins below $5000 as wise because bitcoin price is soon going to sky rocket as most countries are going to legalize bitcoins,especially india being the second largest populated country in the world is soon to legalize bitcoin.It would trigger the bitcoin price more.
