What if Bitcoin never reaches a new ATH?

[tianglistrik]

Let us not underestimate bitcoin. It could still reach new ath in the future. But if not, then let's just accept it and be prepared for it. It is not like, not having a new ath is the ending of bitcoin. Bitcoin will still continue for a long time and there's always a possibility of it achieving new ath. We just need to be patient in waiting.

I believe that Bitcoin is able to reach its new ATH, especially if later all countries want to accept Bitcoin so the demand for Bitcoin will increase and of course it will make the price of Bitcoin rise dramatically. But some people are waiting after the Halving moment, many believe that after that the Bitcoin price will Pump.

I also think that but I am thinking that it would not be easy to reach another pump like before because it is different year from 2017. I don't expect much from this upcoming year 2020 and just wait and hold much more bitcoin until the time comes to avoid regrets.

if bitcoin cannot reach the new ATH then i will take advantage of the small movements of bitcoin to get profits, but maybe the best way is to save bitcoin for investment purposes because i am still sure that bitcoin will continue to grow and maybe the peak is the legality of the countries that are currently still haven't done legality on bitcoin

People were saying the same when Bitcoin was under $1k and same question is being raised now. Why to wait for ATH always. If you can trade properly, then you can take profits in short term too.
Right now, there's a lot of fuss around the halving. People are skeptical about the price rise which is didn't happen would make mining Bitcoin expensive. This can make many miners leave which in turn can cause network congestion.
Right now, Bitcoin actually would have to breach the ATH for it to be sustainable.

These happen all the time, people always says about bitcoin cannot reach new ath. If we truly understand bitcoin surely people at first have their beliefs in bitcoin stands in the market. Once you invest in bitcoin you have a goal when to earn a profit. If it will not reach new ath I will still makes ways to earned profit.

if that happens, why are you sure that investment and bitcoin will grow, while bitcoin cannot reach the new ATH. when we are optimistic in the long term we should be sure that its value will continue to grow and be able to make a new ATH. what's interesting if bitcoin is stagnant? so far we have been looking for profits from very high fluctuations. but I'm sure bitcoin can reach new ATH, nobody knows about it, let's wait for 2 years to come.

The Bitcoin price may rise to the highest level again. A new ATH might come. Or not. But the price was very playful. Bitcoin still offers many earning opportunities. Surfing in the waves is very difficult. Buying only bitcoin does not save you money. You need to make the purchase from the right spot.

There are many crypto traders who are riding with the waves earning profits with opportunities by shorting or longing at the right spots as you rightly said there are other opportunities to earn good pay with bitcoin if properly utilized, so if new ATH did not come in as much as some people are making profits consistently with bitcoin those categories of people would not bother about a new ATH.

No matter how much bitter it sounds, my take is that the users need to seriously think about a scenario in which the Bitcoin exchange rates remain at the current level for an extended period. A lot of the users still live on dreamland far away from reality, and they think that what happened in 2013 and 2017 is going to repeat again and again. What they fail to remember is the fact that the exchange rates went down by 80% in 2014-16, and again another 85% during 2018.

With a great deal of negativity suddenly within the crypto sector following elevated regulatory concerns surrounding The rest, Facebook Libra, and Bitcoin of the asset type, the sell pressure and also fear has made altcoins to capitulate as well as Bitcoin to start crashing.

Altcoins aren't just dropping to brand new lows in USD worth, but their BTC proportions are at extreme lows. So small, that it in case these ratios were maintained all of the right way to the top of the following Bitcoin bull run, really $100K BTC would not let most altcoins achieve a new all time high in USD value

If Altcoins Maintain BTC Ratio, $100K Bitcoin Will not Drive them to New ATH At the beginning of 2019, altcoins had outperformed Bitcoin, with numerous doubling in worth in USD and in BTC ratio. Litecoin is a pathetic illustration of this, and also it ceased the rally of its following a 600 % increase.

But since April, the once correlated altcoins diverged from Bitcoin substantially, and have since gone on to attain new lows. Investors are capitulating, along with a lot of it's being pushed by fears of approaching regulation, that has caused a big part of the marketplace to be cut off from Binance, the top crypto exchange.

Nevertheless, the majority of crypto investors are keeping out hope for the promise of an "alt season" - a time at what selling in the asset type is completely exhausted, and the lower liquidity coupled with FOMO drives up the cost of every altcoin substantially quickly. Such an occurrence brought numerous ridiculous return shipping at the level of the Bitcoin bull run.

Anyone late to alt season got left trapped holding several expensive bags. Expensive bags that may not again return to the previous all-time high of theirs.loadmore....

As it's said, "Patience is a virtue". We as "hodlers" of Bitcoin should be patient in order to see better results in the future. But, what if Bitcoin never reaches a new ATH? Then, I'm afraid that most people "hodling" Bitcoin will lose all of their investment in the long run.

What are your thoughts?

Only a few people wanted a true change for the world specially in the financial sector. For myself, I never viewed Bitcoin as an investment but rather a change or a replacement for Fiat money. Look, if majority of the people all around the world trust Bitcoin as daily mode for payments, that would be revolutionary. Remember 1 BTC is divisible. One that has stack the most has a lot. If fiat is gone (and i know eventually is), and say, you have 0.10000000 sats you would be a millionaire with 10 million sats. The one who stacks late, the one will be poor, in a world that is governed by bitcoin financial system.

The way you address your topic is that you are still a 'BIG FAN' of the current FIAT system. Of course, you can have what you want in the current system maybe because you're too young (can't blame you for that) and I am 55 years old and still stacking satoshis for the future of my children.

Look, my children, i educate them with crypto specially BTC but all fall on deaf ears. I recently just discovered BTC way back in 2018 of december. When i am looking how to preserve wealth in the future and i really do not believe in gold as it is not portable and many people will hunt you if they knew you have one. That's when bitcoin gave a solution. I looked at the white paper and educate myself in it. And said to myself that, this Bitcoin thing will be revolutionary!

Feel free to give some as I happen to inspire you on what the future holds for Bitcoin and it's religious Hodlers!

I think there is no need to wait for a new ATH if you want to profit enough with just a few percent increase it makes you more for, in my opinion if bitcoin reach ATH then it can affect other prices so that the ATH is needed, but for short-term profits there is no need for a new ATH you just analyze daily or weekly that is enough.

I think it's unthinkable to assume that Bitcoin won't have a new ATH given the prevailing situations in the crypto industry that point to that. I think there are lots of pluses for Bitcoin come 2020. There is even the halving happening next year in addition to what we should expect in 2020. I listened to Christine Lagarde (President of ECB) on cryptocurrency and that gladdened my heart of greater things to come for the industry. Here is the link https://youtu.be/chHnk6lSc5A

In the future there will be more countries that accept blockchain, but I do not dare to claim that they will accept bitcoins in their country. Perhaps they will create many coins for their country and prevent the development of bitcoin and other altcoins. No one can predict the future, but if things happen like I fear then maybe bitcoin will never reach ATH again.

Bitcoin always has issues like "WHAT IF"
people relax don't create bitcoin stress yourself, price is always different and you never know and come to terms with it.
Never think that the current price is finite, it's just a fake.

[inanilujimi]

If you have high trust in bitcoin, there won't be questions like this.
How many times has bitcoin fallen and been seriously injured, ??
Bitcoin can always rise and penetrate what it has accomplished, be patient with no limits that is what I believe from bitcoin.

You can't tell that for sure. And for all we know, 20k would really be the all time high for btc. And a lot of people will be disappointed. I'm optimistic about bitcoin's future and i'm also rooting for it to break all time high. But if you're holding for the long term, the longer you hold, the more you realize that it's not all about the fiat value. I'll be contented if btc is utilized more and people would realize it's real use. Value would automatically come then.

It all just pass by, may we are down today or tomorrow but we are still hoping that it will change in the coming days. The question is how do people will change their mindset and accept reality. Cause for me, it doesn't matter if we reach for another ATH or not, the most important is we still enjoy its purpose and Bitcoin still exists.

What I meant to say is that we gave them undeserved attention and support as a community after they got banned. We shouldn't even bother with most of them for the reasons I stated in the original comment. I don't mean we should take action against them.

I can agree with your opinion, I do not personally follow any YT channel related to crypto, because most only promote nonsense and their referral links. I'm not going to say that there aren't some good things to look at YT, but more good information can be found in this forum. I guess it's just a presentation that draws people to watch endlessly stupid analysis and speculation, which is, after all, a waste of time.

It all comes down to everyone individually, and I have already said that everyone is the master of their own destiny and time. Who are we to tell people what to do on the internet, let them watch what they want if it gives them pleasure. I understand you and your thinking, but the fact is that there are a lot of people who believe in fairy tales, and there are those who present these fairy tales very well.

I think it's okay to think so. better prepare for the worst than keep hoping. so, even though we are indeed focused on gathering assets for high prices, but for one thing, we also need to prepare for the worst. Bitcoin ATH is so high, even more than 100% of the current price, so there is potential that makes the price of bitcoin cannot reach its ATH, even though I myself am so optimistic about the price increase that will occur but doesn't be so hopeful about the new ATH.

In the past, institutional money was lower than today, governments didn't care much about bitcoin, and scammers were too few, and as a result scam cases weren't as too high as they are today. with the entry of governments and investors In institutional, this market will not be like in the past where there were large price pumps and there was great optimism. I agree with the thought that we have to take advantage of small price increases and small price drops.

[fenican]

The fundamentals are very good for this. The number of new coins being minted is now very small, and every day a new investor or two comes into the market with the intent to buy and hold forever. As a function of this, the number of "shares" (coins) available for public trading gets lower and lower which, over time, will drive the price higher and higher. Those who use BTC for commerce don't really care, since the price movement during the time they hold and use the coins is negligible, and BTC is almost infinitely divisible, but it's wonderful for long term buy and hodl investors.

Everyone is do believe in bitcoin and still investing. the price of bitcoin will never vanish because bitcoin is the only one investment that any of us will earn too much money, unlike gold that still in stable price. if we didn't reach to new ATH them it is not a big deal, we can aim it in other years if we practice patient always. it will happen again if everyone recognize bitcoin.

if bitcoin cannot reach the new ATH then we must be more patient, of course, and must find other ways to earn. but I am not sure bitcoin cannot reach the new ATH, because of the price development I am sure bitcoin will be able to achieve this and it is only a matter of time.
