I would not call BTC's price in January exactly "stable", there is a big war between bulls and bears going on right now that is keeping the price within one range, until it will be cleared the winner between bulls and bears.
According to recent market trends, bitcoin prices fell below $ 7,000, and recent days have risen to more than $ 8,000. But in this landmark bitcoin has stopped. No further increase. I think the bitcoin market is getting saturated, because so many other altcoins are born, they have taken away a large number of bitcoin investors. Therefore, supply and demand in the bitcoin market have decreased.
The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the first distributed timestamping system.

Can't say exactly why price is stable this year but I'll talk about one task which was mentioned here: if bitcoin reaches $30-50k then it will be very difficult for newcomers to buy bitcoin for buying altcoins in the exchanges.
I can say that one main reason will be fees which will not give possibility bitcoin to reach 30-50k. If I have to send 100$, why will I pay 20$ in it? So not only newcomers but no one will use it for sending/receiving. It will only become coin for investing but if people won't use it for transactions, coin will die slowly.

What do you think is happening?

Is people hoding less their coins?

Is there more manipulation by big whales, speculators or big institutional investors trying to profit the flavour of the moment?

I feel that there are big players "pumping and dumping" in order to manipulate the market to stabilize price and "control" in a certain way the price fluctuation.

Obviously bitcoin is very dangerous for our old corrupted economy, don't you think that in acertain way there's an unusual stop of the past few months trend?
After reaching $20k there's a correction to $17k and then price stabilizes at 11-12k with mini-dips that last seconds before going uptrend...

In my opinion the key factor could be also that if bitcoin reaches $30-50k then it will be very difficult for newcomers to buy bitcoin for buying altcoins in the exchanges.

So that stabilizing the price to an affordable $10k for a while could be a way to engage more people to bitcoinworld.

Or maybe it's all ok, there's no manipuation, it is a stanby before the big run to $50k-100k. Then newcomers will start buying and trading in Ethereum or Litecoin, because at the moment there aren't exchanges accepting fiat money, you have to enter and buy your altcoins directly with cryptocurrencies...

Which in your opinion are the main reasons?


Stable is not the right word at this moment, I think you need to see chart again. Actually, no one know how bitcoin can high, low or stable because market always move with million transactions every second. Even people with big fund can't control market because market will move also need news for speculation action. I'm not fundamental trader/ investor, just people with number and MACD indicator. Maybe you're right but I have another one and will disciplines with that. Good luck with you.

It's not stable I think it has more than 1000$ change
but one word is enough it's not time of btc
we are at the begining of altcoin season
For the past few days I think prices are more likely to be stable you can see it on the price chart just spinning in the $ 8000 range. I don't know the price can be stable for a few days but I think it's a good chance for you to make a profit easily. because you can know the bitcoin price change that happened?
but that does not mean this year is only stable price that happens in bitcoin. is this just the beginning of the year dude? and not necessarily the bitcoin era is over lol

When you made this thread, the price of bitcoin is really stable, not much move in the market.
But after that, the price was going to low and its very bad. But i dont worry with this because i believe bitcoin not stop this way.

Bitcoin price is stable in the year 2018 and it is the part of this year that many businesses will be developed in the present year. Bitcoin is good to have the future like if we buy bitcoin today now the price is low as compared to a month ago So if we buy bitcoin on excess money then it is good for the future if we need future profitability then we will sell our bitcoin,

Bitcoin cannot reach those prices with a single person trying to buy bitcoin with a one hundred dollar bill, the amount of money needed for that is going to be massive, and it will come mostly from institutional investors getting their hands in as much bitcoin as they can and we can only tell how high the price will become after that since institutional investors are not going to invest money in bitcoin just to lose it.

Maybe Bitcoin finally has a "Fair" value, and become less volatile.

This is actually beneficial to the whole community as volatility was one of the reasons impeding widespread adoption.

i believe bitcoin still need a long time to become stable, even rightnow, the price is still being manipulated by big whales, they can easily control the market forever whenever they want, due to the pumps and dumps they and even us can get profit from trading, so there is no easy for bitcoin to become stable this soon, but many corrections more to become a better coin.

I believe that in 2018 the digital money market will grow exponentially and more and more new projects on older projects will grow stronger. It is possible to see that every country in the world has been very interested in this market and there have been a lot of countries that have joined and recognized bitcoin as a legitimate trading currency. I think in 2018 This bitcoin price will reach $ 50,000.

from your opinion I feel if all this happens there are big players who toy bitcoin with pump and dump in bulk to get profit. so this is common and in the near future the coin will return to normal and can be at the highest price.

I believe the bitcoin price will be very difficult to stabilize in 2018, we can see that in the first 5 weeks of 2018 we have witnessed tremendous changes from the market, the bitcoin price has changed not after $ 19800 milestone. With the restriction of the shipping of water as China, Korea and India, I think bitcoin price will be difficult to fly high, although the bitcoin price has returned to the level $ 9600 and is still on the rise.

I agree.It's still too early to say that bitcoin price has become so stable.I know it will happen soon but after 10-20 years maybe.Right now,i think there are really big whales controlling the price and so expect also that from time to time new fluctuations will occur.I think in the last trimester of this year comes a very high speed of increase,and then comes a price correction before this year ends.

I think that they have the current situation for BTC today but also the minds are cut off and will begin to understand that because of such instability, Bitcoin can not be a means to pay for purchases of goods or services. There were many people who jumped the wagon when btc was crazily pumping, people who probably don't know what they're investing on

i think that the reason is traders, investors are worried about the future of bitcoin because govement's of some countries have plans to control the bitcoin or coinmaket, or ban mining or trading.... they sell their coins.. that makes bitcoin price so table

Yeah the traders often worry about the price after hearing any bad news but they do not know that the price depend on them and if they will not worry about the price and will not sell panic then the price will continue to grow with the passage of time as the trust increases in it and in the strength of the coin.
