Why is everyone expecting continuous growth?

[suzanne5223]

I don't know when the market can return to the period of the highest price increase but certainly investors will continue to stay in the bear market for a few more years.

Same here, don't know when but certainly it will happen.

It will certainly when the pandemic vaccine is find while the bitcoin halving effect take over the market.

The market will grow but it might take time so we should be willing to hold, investing in crypto does not tell us do it for easy money, instead it tells us to trust the market and must be willing to hold so when the right time will come, you'll enjoy the price.

How can someone who's yet to understand the volatility in nature of the market will trust the market? I think whats needed now is people to understand the historical data of bitcoin market during blood bath and bullrun.

Bear market and bull market are just cycle in the market, in every cycle, we should know what to do and how to approach it, even if we are for long term hold.

I agree with you on this.

I'm not expecting continuous growth because I'm aware how Bitcoin it's functioning. But I.guess some users are hopless optimists, especialy now in time of crisis and they just wait for that trigger that will push the price high.
Bitcoin is volatile, market is unpredictable and we have to be prepared on both scenarios, rise and fall. To my opinion currently there are no conditions on the market for continuous, steady growth and for a while the situation will remain as it is, price will continue to fluctuate but it will hardly cross 8000$ very soon.

Seriously speaking no real bitcoiner will say, it's not expected of Bitcoin to do the ups and  downs as many things depends on this method to strive in the world, Even the stock market and real world market, there must be a up and down in the price. We're not saying that, Bitcoin shouldn't experience the ups and downs but should always sometimes maintain some linear momentums. Though this fluctuations doesn't mean that, the market is not open for profit taking, those who actually understand the ways the market move can take profit anytime.

I don't know if it's only my perception but I constantly notice people who expect continuous growth. Whether it is bitcoin, crypto,
stock, they only see one side of things and never the opposite.

Yes, things go up but they can go down, and going down does not mean the stock/crypto is dying. It means it is alive!
So please stop all these recession & bitcoin going down topics and be wise

Those who always expect crypto price to climb up always are those who don't really understand the technology, crypto is volatile and it will always fluctuate, this is normal, there will always be up and down not matter how good the coin is

You definitely are wrong, volatility and fluctuation is by any means not crypto's feature and it's purely because of the market. although it's true that there'll be some up and down for most of the coins but imagine if our market is as big as gold, manipulation will be quite hard therefore the market will become more stable.

I think Bitcoin 's halving will raise its value. If the BTC starts to grow, the entire market will be green. Let's wait. There was less than a month.

I don't want to destroy your dreams and I know we are on a cryptocurrency forum where again, everyone is expecting continuous growth.

WHY DID LITECOIN (A BITCOIN FORK) NEVER RETURNED TO ITS PRICE AFTER HALVING IN AUGUST??
Remember that litecoin also has miners which are not necessary profitable. Why would Bitcoin miners deserve
a better outcome and treatment?

DO NOT EXPECT CONTINUOUS GROWTH. I sold everything and I'm rebuying again in June/July

Why people here need to expect that continuous growth when the truth is in this
market there is no such thing as Growing forever.
we are in volatile market and prices will change randomly and without our
expectation and from there value will be in
changing from time to time unless we are into Stable coins.
but my question is why need to wait for june before buying again mate?meaning you are expecting another big dump soon?

In fact, financial games are one of the very interesting games and it focuses a lot on the psychology of the players. Those who do not have their opinions and plans in this playground seem to be dismissed. I have seen many new traders follow the trading signals of some large groups. They are carefree and hold it indefinitely without thinking about the risks. after a strong sell-off from bitcoin costing $ 10k3 -> $ 3k7, thousands of traders lost everything. So we need to get our pump and dump ready for the market. There is a law that when prices fall too much, they will recover much, prices rise too quickly, and they will decrease rapidly. This is the rule of the financial market that everyone needs to know.

maybe not in the near future, but little by little, the price of bitcoin is creeping up to reach the price of $ 8,000. I think so far many people have prepared bitcoin, ethereum, and other popular altcoins because they think that prices will rise. Well, some of those who doubt, I think they have survived some assets.

Yes. I expect the biggest dump. You should write names on paper of which news platforms or personalities in blockchain industry
influenced you to think otherwise.

Keep in mind I don't have any "internal" information or anything. We may see a little pump, then a 60%-80% decline,
then a recovery on which I target a 25% return. I play safe with consistent returns because this is what works for me.
Other people have other strategies but may use lower capital so they are more risk averse.

one way or another, but the cryptocurrency market is influenced by quite a lot of factors due to which it is impossible to predict for 100% the further development of events regarding the entire market and an individual cryptocurrency.  In order to approve a further fall in the price of cryptocurrency, for this you need to have strong evidence or obvious prerequisites.  Although each of us understands that with a sufficient result of a possible bull run, users will immediately orient and start selling in order to earn more money.

It's true what you said but try to use more your intuition and don't rely on so much data to make a decision unless you take a huge capital risk (above $10m).
No need to be a follower or a leader as long as you can be in between.

The 5 stages for decision in crypto I use after analyzing the market as a whole:

Denial: everyone rejects the idea  (full leaders, big risks big gains)
Indifference: some people heard about it but don't pay attention.
Awareness: most people know about it but only some take action
Information: everyone knows, more people take action
Driven-stage: it is now clear for everyone what is happening  (full followers, low risks low gains)


I would say we are in the indifference stage right now. After Halving and june/july period awareness will start between people and we will
fast move towards information stage. I aim to invest in the "awareness stage" because this is a guarantee for me.


There are other stages such as "misleading stage" which enforces indifference. There are others, I just can't talk about them.

This works for me but I'm an intuitive person. Not everyone is. I recommend to do myers briggs type indicator to understand what person you are.

Honestly, my best investment of 2020 so far has been Creditcoin. I've been following this project ever since the news of the coinbase investment, and I can honestly say its been one of my highest retruning coins this year.

When you are investing money mate of course people we will expect growth continuously though for us not to be fail often then we need to learn that there are always up and down in everything in this world and that is reality in life.

when i was new here of course all i am seeking is when,where to profit but today<i have learn my lesson and also learn the basic in this market and that is for we to make money at least we knew how to wait or risk for a much better chance of earning.

That's what experience do, it helps your matured and fully understand how the market moves.
you are wiser now, you are seeing the opposite of what the weak hands are seeing, and with that you'll be able to make a correct decision in a timely manner.

More people still optimistic of getting decent profits since the market are still moving forward, and with the past experienced traders and investors are looking forward to achieved those kind of things again. Buying coins and believe that chance to gained profits are always been around this industry
though the market is volatile and risk of losing money is also there you just need to work more with your knowledge regarding to this market.

Yes, things go up but they can go down, and going down does not mean the stock/crypto is dying. It means it is alive!
So please stop all these recession & bitcoin going down topics and be wise

That's a good observation but we are all human and we have a stakes on the market and majority of investors did not invest what they can afford to lose, instead they always on the look in the market, so they can trade anytime or let them retain their investment, so we'll always have people posting the market going up and down.

seeing market going up and down is normal but expecting always profit is not the same because there are cases when market literally going down and expecting w earning in such a moment is impossible so the thing is are we really ready to invest and earn with of course risk and time extension ?or are we here to make instantly?if the last is your reason then better not to expect here because there will no complete season of profiting.

Look at coins with solid fundaments!
For example Creditcoin which was invested in by coinbase and y combinator. its experienced continuous growth due to the team following their roadmap and showing contniuous progress

That's actually a good point... however we need to keep in mind that progress on roadmap does not always = growth. Take for example Litecoin which did not have any major
developments or business case scenarios and it's constantly floating.
