Yeah I totally agree with you. Your analysis is appreciable and exactly the same reasons affect the price. It seems that bitcoin is their enemy and these elements want to punish bitcoin. Those who are against bitcoin should leave this field and never come back. I don’t know why some people give such false statements. It is my choice to invest in bitcoin or not.

In my own opinion, the only reason for the prices to be affected is due to the people who are selling their coins whenever the prices are dumping and because of that the chain reaction is occuring which leads for the price to decrease even more.

It is demand which is responsible for the price of Bitcoin to move it either in upwards direction or in downward direction. When the demand rate increases then its price also increases which is the favorable time for sellers as to sell coins on higher price so that to make profit. On the other hand when it decreases the price also decreases which is the favorable time for buyers to buy on low price.

One of the main reasons of the last crash is that there were  a lot of people investing all that money that they could not afford, and when they saw it going down, they started to sell, and that is what caused the crash in those times, that is my theory

It is also a reason for low price but there are some other reasons too, like low demand from all over the world. Now most investors want to put their money in Altcoin and the demand for bitcoin become down. Other reason is whales manipulation which affects the price and finally false statements and new about bitcoin. These are the reasons affects the price.

Cryptocurrency and bitcoin are very much sensational in 2017. There were a lot of scams that this HYIP decided to deceive people. ICO which did not come to the exchange and many other schemes with hacking of the exchange and theft of bitcoins. A lot of stories turned away from young and promising investors.

In my opinion, undecided and scared people are really the first thing that affects the price of bitcoin. Why? simply because of scared in losing there money they do the panic selling which affects the price. When they enter the world of bitcoin and start investing here some of them don't take any ideas from the seniors / successful people in this business so as a result when they experienced challenges they take action that didn't think twice. Due to this there's lot of people are against it  and spread false issues about bitcoin.

There is nothing special happening, the price went up really fast and logic dictates the price will have to go down very fast as well, the price went down a little bit lower than I thought, I was predicting that we could reach the point of equilibrium at 9000 and we went down to 6000 but that is fine now the only thing to do is to wait for the price to recover again.

There's are some points that are considered what affects the price of a btc. First is when a lot of investors sell their coin therefore the price of bitcoin will become low because of the number of seller. The higher the sellers the lower the price
Next is the social media or news cast about negative side of the bitcoin due to this, some people who are lack of knowledge about it is afraid to enter the cryptocurrency world because they are scared to lose and went for nothing.

FUD can without a doubt affect the market but things are not so simple at worst the FUD made the crash a bit bigger but nothing more it did not caused the crash that we are seeing, the crash was caused by fundamental reasons, people simply invested too much money in bitcoin too fast, some people realized this and began selling, this made the price to go down and then they panicked making the price to go down even faster.

[KobeBriant 24]

A lot of stuff, specially the FUD and what the people think about bitcoin or any other asset at the time, it all depends on how the market is going at the moment too, but i think that the price can easily be changed in just matter of minutes from one person

[Gameroid]

The factor that affects price mostly is, Market manipulations from the financial institutions,the news,the FUDs, and most importantly, technicals these are the things that you should be watching out as they are going to be a good trigger for your trades, this is the butterfly effect that is why we need to be sure to our all decisions before making a conclusion.

Yes that is right that there are so many factors which are causing the bitcoin price to increase. I think that the most important factor is the interest of the people in bitcoin. As soon as the interest of the people in bitcoin will continue increasing it will increase the bitcoin demand and so the supply will decrease which will in turn causes the bitcoin price to increase more and more.

I believe that fake news can actually affect the market price either to pump or to dump even more and that is the reason why you should always watch news that is related to cryptocurrenc, in order to determine if you will be earning profit or not.

These days, FUD is caused by the slightest negative news, and it takes a really big positive news to change the market to a bull-dynamics

well those people should not invest if they are afraid to lose money they shouldn't be investing even the safest investment carries a risk there's a chance you will lose money. if they really want to hop in to bitcoin they should be ready to lose some money like said invest what you can afford to lose.

Basically everything, however it needs to be in a row. I mean if there is one bad news or one good news that doesn't change too much (depending on how bad the news is). However if you have a ton of bad news in a row or a ton of good news in a row than you may expect some bad changes or good changes according to them. The important part usually is not the news itself its how it makes crypto viewed around the world.

if they really want to hop in to bitcoin they should be ready to lose some money like said invest what you can afford to lose.

When each and every aspects of crypto world ending up in affecting price levels of all leading cryptos, it would be much better only very small amounts. Taking risky beyond our capacity is never recommended. We must invest with a proper plan like converting short term into long term should not be problem at any moment.

In my own opinion, the most dominant way for the price of cryptocurrency to drop is because of the fud that is spreading on other countries which makes people to sell their coins while the market prices are still dropping.

I think a lot of negative information affect the price of Bitcoin and the other cryptocurrencies. However, nowadays t mass media is giving much positive information about BTC. That is why it is not falling more.

[Disclaimert]

some of the factors I think are the reasons why bitcoin prices are falling, of which more and more countries are banning bitcoins, and then price games from whales that have a strategy to profit from bitcoin trading, and many more that can affect bitcoin prices

You're right sir, that is what we call panic selling and this usually done by new investors or beginners who wants quick result on their investments. Some of these investors easily get nervous when the price of their coins start to fall and when their emotion overcome them then the road to panic selling start. There are not well-informed when they start investing and lack of knowledge on cryptocurrencies will only to a loss in their investment and further dips in the price of the bitcoin. Panic selling, price manipulations, hacking on exchanges and events related to the coins are some of the factors that affect the price.
