Would you be satisfied with steady, gradual rise of BTC price?

[Whosdaddy]

this could only satisfy me if the price (like the current one) was a healthy one then we could have had a healthy stable rise from there. but when we are in a price that is the result of an unhealthy manipulation (dump) that has brought it in an unstable state, all we can expect is wild rises because this low price is just as bad and unstable as the high price at the top of the bubble.

I don’t think there has been so much of manipulation in this current one too, even if it were to follow the pattern the op mentioned, there will always be decrease in price a little bit before picking the next target which I don’t see as manipulation.

This is natural so long we have the presence of traders in the market who would always take advantage of any price fluctuation they see to their benefits but, they do that to also reinvest back to bitcoin, this is why we will see a little decrease and massive increase after some time.

The sharp increase we experienced last was just done to correct the market and place us on a bull market.

Yes, why not just a grow of at least 1500$ every month, and until the end of year 2019 to have over 15000$ price for 1 bitcoin. Is better maybe to have little by little grow and a big one on short time, maybe if grow little by little will be more stable if hit higher value.

That will be good for everyone who has to buy and sell bitcoin because with the growing of $1500 every month, we can make a good profit and if we can trade in many times in every day by monthly, then we can make a bigger profit.

I will be satisfied if the price can increase $1000 every month until the halving comes because $1000 means a lot of money for me and I am sure that it will be the same as the other people. But unfortunately, that is only a scenario which we don't know if it could happen or not and we could only dreaming that thing will happen.

But good if you have that dream because dream will come true at the right time

Where you do get that $1000 per month increase? We have seen that the entire market is moving sideways for almost a year and half.We are playing between 3k and 5k price so
i cant see that $1000 increase per month but well we do know that the price might increase for future years to come.

If Bitcoin can follow this trend suggested, it will be the healthiest coin one can invest in, it will give many investors courage to come in at any time to invest, and we will always witness increase in the number of investment every month till it reaches its ATH.

This price action will also guide against premature dumping because every investor will always look up to the next value of bitcoin by still holding on the their investment pending the time the coin reaches ATH for them to sell their coin and take the profit, just that this will benefit more of those who are into short term trading and day traders too.

[Pagri]

Of course, I would be totally satisfied to see such a gradual growth in the price of bitcoin, but it is well known that markets do not behave in such an organic way, but tend to move in cyclical jumps; In addition, the behavior of bitcoin has been quite sui generis in comparison to all the commodities, currencies or assets that up to now exist, which increases the difficulty to predict the possible scenarios that could face the price of bitcoin in the years to come.

Same thoughts here bro. That's why i'm hoping this kind of trend continues instead of what people are hoping for, which is another bull run, which i think is premature at this point. Drastic upward fluctuations like that demand a steep correction just like what happend 2 years ago.

[Ronyx]

I prefer a gradual increase and look more stable, and for a spike like a nail I don't like it because it will make the price likely to fall freely.

[olumyd]

Although I don't believe that will be the case, and althought we all know that development of BTC price is all but predictable and linear, so there is no chance for this to happen, I would like to ask, hypothetically, what is your opinion on this (im)possible scenario:

Would you be satisfied with steady, gradual rise of BTC price?  e.G. 500 per month in 2019.
Something like this:
1. May 5000 USD (let's suppose that BTC had finished its price growth for this month on 2nd of April :-)
1. June 5500 $
1. July 6000 $
1. August 6500 $
1. September  7000 $
1. October  7500 $
1. November 8000 $
1. December 8500 $
1. January 2020. 9000 $

Let's suppose that, thanks to forthcoming halving in May, from this moment on, price grows 1000 USD per month.
so..
1. February 2020.   10000 $
1. March 2020  11000 $ (so on March 3rd 2020 I could re-open this topic after 15 months https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2510943.msg25663426#msg25663426)
1. April 2020 12000 $
1. May 2020 13000 $

So, at the month of halving, the price would be around 13700 $.
After that, another speed-up, and on 1. January 2021 the price could be e.g. 25-30k $.

I believe this would be very healthy, it would give enough time for BTC ecosystem to develop further, give sense of stability to institutional investors etc... without euphoria...

While your thoughts on a steady growth sounds appealing, I even like the idea, but the likely rise of $500 per month isn't logically nor sustainable. The best thing is for it to rise and fall but rise more steadily, and with varying percentage.

IMHO bitcoin market is doing just fine. The rise and fall are typical of market sentiments. After all machines don't own Bitcoin to give it an algorithmic growth.

[koroke]

Honestly, i already satisfied with bitcoin price right now. I see bitcoin price from 2015 it is make big improvement and even we reach it's peak at 2017, but when down it is not really dumped and can be stable like now.

I agree with the fact that it is indeed better than 2015, but still Im not satisfied enough wirh the current price of Bitcoin, which tend for everyone to hold their money and too afraid to invest and buy the tokens that bounties had issue, since it's their lose if ever that they would come up buying tokens without the fluctuation of the price and that's what most of the people say is experiencing right now, which I also experience, it's been 2 years since I hold my tokens, but I still believe that sooner it will fluctuate soon and recently I have found out an exchange which allows everyone to convert their bitcoin into another assets which we may used for gaming, investing and many more and that was Darb and it allows me to experience a faster way of making transactions.

[Siren]

Who do you think will deny if this will become truthful?

Imagine you will have a steady gain per month? Man this is a huge amount if you will invest all you resources, and i van even stop to teal work and invest all my money so i van gain atleast 3000-5000$ a month and thats.more than enough for living, and also i may consider selling my house and car to invest .

But ofcourse this are all impossible and only a dream that will never come true

[arpon11]

Bitcoin might not be moving in that way and currently we are seeing bitcoin trying to make significant move that might push it above $6000 before end of next week.  I most say that if it moved base on your analysis I think it will be a good thing but i don't think it is going to move like that. Bitcoin will have a serious move this year and I think we are going to have another type of bull run we have in 2017.

[Naida_BR]

I would be happy with a gradual increase but in your example it will be very predictable for traders and it will never go upwards.
The reason why the market is pushed upwards is because traders think that can go downwards.
I expect to see an increase till the end of the year, a small one, that will show to the community that Bitcoin is not dead and it is moving.

 Seeing gradual pump has enlighten the mind on those people who are lack of trust on visioning the possible growth will occur. I know some people are disappointed on dealing the long months of bearishness of the market field and now it is a good sign to engage positivity and determination to continue on investing probably on bitcoin, that show strong potential asset among all coins. And let us keep optimism for a bountiful growth of bitcoin will exceed and its value will reach the desirable peak that will satisfied us.

[dothebeats]

A gradual increase is more inviting for me rather than a volatile one, though seeing the all-time charts, we can say that we have achieved the 'gradual increase' part albeit being a clonky one. Every cycle we achieve higher highs and higher lows, so that somehow seals what this post is about. With the entry of institutional investors and VCs in the market, it's safe to say that bitcoin's gradual increase is guaranteed, though the price should not be the only concern but also the adoption, too.

[vit05]

Nope,

I think the best opportunities occur when Bitcoin go up and down like a crazy bull. I remember when I first bought some, the price have gone down and took years to recover. It should be always like this. So only the strongest will have the balls to hodl.

[el kaka22]

I guess that would be both good and bad accordingly to how you manage to do it. If the price is gradually increasing but so slowly that its insane how slow it is than it would make sense but if its increasing too quickly than where could it land? Like will it be 100 million dollars per bitcoin at some point ? So yeah, gradually increasing is good if its going like 5%-10% a year but anything above that is not sustainable for a long period of time.

The decentralized version of the market that keeps going up and down helps us a bit to actually make the market fair for everyone involved, it is never known what it will do for a long period of time, and that is why its incredibly valuable when it goes up since you might have gotten it before it went down instead and you are lucky it went up.

I may think that everyone had suffer such portfolio's declines when there is a unexpected drop of price.  It is all inevitable market changes and only have guts to manage our emotions will survive from this crazy market trend.  This is also some reason why a lot of people quit that easy when they lose hope with the market.

For who lose that easy maybe join bitcoin when it is on high price. Because if they join when bitcoin still growing around 2014 - 2015, they wouldn't that easy lose their hope because they know bitcoin have very low price before and it can increased that much.

lol, it is easy for YOU to say it today that you are seeing the price is a lot bigger than the price in 2014-2015 otherwise those years were the exact same as today (which is weird because you chose those years instead of say 2016-2017). in fact price was falling all through 2014 and some in 2015 just like it was falling in 2018 and people were depressed similarly!

[shesheboy]

First of all , there is no such thing as steady here in crypto as we all know that cryptos are volatile  . second of all , i prefer the unexpected pump than a slow gradual price and i believe everyone will agree on me because that is the only time that we can sell our coins at a good price  . third of all , ill still be satisfied no matter what happens to bitcoin whether there will be no more higher pumps that can occur in the future .
