One theory is that people are buying BTC to hold them for a couple of weeks and to get the upcoming Bitcoin Gold.

I think it has to do with the upcoming fork, you will get bitcoin gold and also a possible fork in November.

Unless another event like the issue of the China banning bitcoin from there country, I think bitcoin will continue to grow up though not necessarily rise up quickly, it may go down a little but the growth rate will be much greater. This is because they are holding bitcoins and this causes the price to go up since the supply or the number of bitcoin will be hold up o every users who wish. Then as the price goes up more and more people will be encouraged to hold bitcoin. Thus, continuing the growth of bitcoin.

congratulations to all bitcoin holders this is something to celebrate but I'm thinking people are buying bitcoin because of the coming fork, where holders will receive the same amount of the new bitcoin fork once the fork start this could be the reason why they are buying more bitcoin

Quite possibly due to the two upcoming forks in the future. People thinking that they're getting "free money". Possibly people who missed the free bitcoincash months ago.

Well... It's getting more and more difficult for a beginner like me to get in the bitcoin world...
Why so? What does price have to do with the knowledge you can gain by studying cryptocurrencies? If you're talking about investing, then it's just gonna get harder and harder to buy cheap bitcoin if you continue waiting.

That's true but only one fork will actually be the winner. both might survive but one will be the true victor and be worth more than the other. and the uncertainty of the new fork will cause prices to shoot down during the first 2 weeks

Now, the next milestone is $8k, I guess if there will be no bitcoin bubble explosion, we could have $8k, $10k, $12 by next year. Smiley I believe at 2020 we will have $20000. If God would bless me and give me 1BTC that time, then I would have a 1 million currency in my country Smiley

Yeah and I think it would continue to grow,
There is a coming hard fork and everyone is trying to hold their btc to gain bitcoingold ,
And I think after that bitcoin would bitcoin would be pump for a while before it drops down again.

The Impending Hard Fork had force the value to rise up because right now the effect of a Hard Fork for them is an opportunity to get more in the future and because of the free coins that we might get with bitcoin gold that the buying is more irrelevant right now, buy and hodl they say!

More than hopeful though. Hard forks aren't guaranteed to be good for Bitcoin just because it was beneficial last time doesn't mean it's going to be this time and people should be wary of what a hard fork can do.

Yep. That's all to it. Free bitcoins from those altcoins.

Well... It's getting more and more difficult for a beginner like me to get in the bitcoin world...

Also, every successful bitcoiner out there who earns quiet amount of bitcoin had been a beginner also like me. I dedicate some of my time learning then I came to know methods to earn bitcoins which really helps me a lot.

I can't think of any other reason besides the upcoming hardfork. People are selling altcoins and buying bitcoins so as to get free money. This is truly remarkable. The most awaited part of every btc holder. For those who were skeptical about that "over 5k" remark, then its time to believe. Its not coming, it is here.

If it is buying for the bitcoingold fork then we still won't see a large drop as I don't expect them to cash out real Bitcoin.
People won't since they had witnessed what happened when the Bitcoin Cash fork which the price just continue rising and it doesn't affect the market of the real Bitcoin.

Congratulations to all my bitcoin holder friends.Today is really a big day.As we all expected the bitcoin has crossed the $5000 milestone,am really happy about this.Its really amazing to see such growth even after China banning ICOs.Even though many of them panicked and sold their bitcoins,still the bitcoin managed to cross this great milestone.This is just the beggining,bitcoin's value will keep on rising as it's demand keeps on growing All the best to all the bitcoin miners and holders.
