Your price expectations for 2021

[Raflesia]

Looks to me like $40k is the major resistance already.
We may stay at this price for a long time again.

I am not that optimistic about seeing another $10k addition to its price.
Maybe, it's just getting more expensive for investors or the profits are already being taken by those who bought at $20k.
So $50k-100k might not really be reachable yet.

Sometimes investors also think that the price is too high so they are still afraid that buying at the current price can make them profit because the correction is still happening, see this slowdown is indeed difficult to get through, obviously this will not be entirely significant anymore, how? Even though we are currently trying to analyze bitcoin to reach $50k, is this really over? and it is difficult we just speculate and the most exact price yesterday when it touched $20k - $25k.

As long as fiscal stimulus keeps rolling in, which is very likely now that Democrats will control Congress and the presidency, I believe the markets will remain optimistic. Something would have to go very wrong to bring back the negative sentiment of Q2 2020.

This is the backdrop for Bitcoin's bubble, not to mention the ongoing bubble in stocks. All signs point to continuation.

Unlikely. Bear market won't let it live despite the fiscal stimulus. Keep in mind US alone doesn't control the markets, so its going to interesting to see how things proceed moving on forward.

Bear market? What bear market?! LOL! Everything is at or near ATHs.

Your sentiment just proves my point. There is a wall of worry and the market is going to keep climbing it. Ongoing fiscal stimulus (at least into year end) is just fuel to the fire.

Wall of worry has happened for the past 3 months I think. Ever since we had hard time breaking over 20k, people started to worry about the bitcoin price, whenever it was at around 19.5k or so people assumed we are doing awesome, and whenever it dropped to around 17k level people assumed there was a crash coming very soon, that was just a 10% drop and people assumed we were crashing already, remember how that happened like 5 times or so before we broke over 20k? And each time it happened some people talked about how bitcoin will be crashing.

Long story short we are going to have some corrections and each of those corrections will always be called a bear market and there will be people who will worry about bitcoin becoming 5k once again each time that happens. We can't stop them of course, but we can definitely make sure to ignore them and focus on the reality.

[error08]

If price reaches $100k and then stops there, reversing into a bear market then it puts an end to the history of bitcoin bull/bear cycles and we can no longer predict what will happen next because it will all be new. We may not even see a bubble and the bubble burst anymore.

But if the previous cycles that have happened at least 3 times repeat, we should see $400k at least and it would mark the next bubble for bitcoin then kick start the bear market in 2022 with another 80% drop.
So far (starting from previous bubble in 2017) everything has been pretty much the same in the pat 3 years.

$400k would be nice if the cycle of bitcoin repeated before the bear market takes place to pull down the price to 80%-90%. But makes us wonder how much money it needs to reach that mark, bitcoin needs more investors and adoption around the world. Yes, we can't predict the market 100% correctly and bitcoin growth always surprised us just like the last rally from $20k to $40k. Probably when the next milestone will be surpassed, bitcoin will get into the next stage, multiplying the value.

[KTChampions]

It is hard to say because we are still at the beginning of this year, and many things can happen this year. Maybe the price can jump to $50k-$100k this year, and it will still increase in the next year, and we can wish that the price will not goes down too deep, so we can back to make a profit as soon as possible. The bitcoin price is down again to $35k-$36k, but I am sure that the bitcoin price will increase again.

It's actually very fun to read these two phrases together. Perhaps mentally I stayed back in 2020, when breaking through 20k was considered some kind of milestone, the achievement of which would be epoch-making. I can notice that in fact, everything went routinely and now we are discussing the "drop" of bitcoin to 35 thousand 

[inanilujimi]

the reality of bitcoin is unpredictable, my hope is that this year bitcoin remains on the right track and there are no large FUDs in circulation in the crypto space. For a price that is currently very volatile, I hope that 50k can be reached by the end of 2021.

I am sure all Bitcoin holders expect Bitcoin price to continue to rise throughout 2021, but the reality is very difficult to happen. There will
definitely be negative news that can make Bitcoin price fall, therefore using the stop-loss feature must be done. So when the Bitcoin price
falls like what happened in March 2020, we have an opportunity to be able to buy back Bitcoin at a low price.

But ever since Paypal decided to accept Bitcoin, good news about Bitcoin continues to arrive. That's why in early 2021 Bitcoin managed to
reach a price above $ 40k. Hopefully the current correction will not last long, and Bitcoin can go back up to the price of ATH. And can reach
a price of $ 50k for the next target.

[aioc]

The market is still unpredictable and highly volatile but at least the community, institutions and whales are growing so expect the price to move it's better to have a good and a more realistic expectation so we can come out with a good action that will yield profit, my prediction is $70k to $100k but it will only become clear at the last quarter of the year, we can sum up what's happening in a year.

[RealMalatesta]

This is a question that I ponder daily since I am curious how much my holdings will be worth if I choose to keep holding and not sell even for nice profits.  
This thought crosses my mind all the time more then once a day.
We read of price predictions from 50k all the way up to 100k but theses are just predictions that anyone can make.  
This would be a amazing thing to occur but for me I think its going to take more then a year to reach this price point.  
I hope I am very wrong but 1 thing for certain is that 2021 is going to be a big year for Crypto.

You know that "it may take a year to reach there" so you should not really be worried about it. Could it drop until it reaches 50k? Of course, we go to 40k and to 32-35k levels all the time, it could even reach lower than that one day, but I believe by the end of 2021 we are going to be 50k. Isn't that the whole deal? If it reaches 50k that is more than enough to sell if you are in profit and that is all we are trying to figure out as well. If we are not talking about anything else though? Just the drops and increases and all that?

I believe it is not going to be similar at all and I believe it is going to be a big crash, if you believe in that crash you sell, if you do not believe it you hold. I think there is either a big crash or a good increase on the horizon and I believe on the 50k a lot more than the crash so I am going to hold no matter what happens in between.

US $1,000 million

What does that even mean? One thousand million dollars? Lol.

I made those purposely
The price is up to and down again. It seems the price does not break the higher price, but it moves like that in these few days. But it looks like the bitcoin price now has more support to lift the price because I see the green candle appear on the market. I just hope that this time the price can increase and back to $40k

Relax, Btc is heading towards the $50,000 mark.
Bitcoin is now consolidating before it goes back to $40,000 level. I believe once Btc is back on that level, a path to $50,000 won't be as hard as everybody thought.
And it seems that $33,000 is such a strong support, as Btc doesn't seem to be falling behind the $30,000 level.

While it looks to be an intensely rocky road but still I expect 2021 will be a good year for Bitcoin and probably for cryptocurrencies as a whole. I personally feel that the price of one Bitcoin at the end of 2021 must be at the range of $50K - $60K but please remember the fact that this are just estimates. Nobody can accurately predict the market especially in crypto space.

Why are you waiting for this level? Do you want to get out of bitcoin at this level and then make a purchase at a better price? In my opinion this is a risky strategy as you can miss out on big gains. At the moment, when bitcoin moves very sharply in the 33-40k corridor, there are much more opportunities for speculation in my opinion.

Nobody can accurately predict the market especially in crypto space.

I also expect bitcoin will have a good momentum this year of 2021 because bitcoin has created an unexpected movement in 2020, so there might be more this year. Since this time it is not the same as what happened in 2017, I also assume bitcoin can reach its price range of $50K-$60K because institutional investors are still buying more bitcoin for long-term investment.

[stomachgrowls]

What are you expectation for the price of Bitcoin for the rest of the year?

Now that this short dip to $30k is over, I expect the price to rally to $50k in February, perhaps have another dip at $50k, and then push to around $75k or $80k by sometime in April, probably with one or two more solid but short lived dips during that time.

I think we'll possibly see major resistance once the price starts getting within sight of $100k. So could see a consolidation for a couple months before pushing over $100k in late summer.

In the Fall I think we'll see a correction back under $100k, perhaps ending the year in the high five digits. Retail investors will think another prolonged bear market is coming so they'll preemptively get out from fear of a crash. Meanwhile institutions will just keep stacking sats. Going into next year, during next winter we'll see the price push back over $100k and continue grinding up to likely over $200k next year.

Before talking about 50k and 100k then lets just mind first on how we would gonna break this 40k resistance which had been trying out to breached for few tries but eventually the price do really corrected once it do hit the rooftop.We are now playing around 34-37k price then it tends to correct or there's some pullback which is really hard to predict on whats the next move.Basing off on fundamentals then you cant really see any significant
that would really be connecting into possible price movements which it makes more even harder.

For now the best thing to be done is dont expect to those 6 digit price and go play along on what we are taking or experiencing now.Im actually enjoying these movements yet TA's are
bit helpful in times like this where price is way too moving in a short time.

Expectations? Neither we would have a bear market or have some nasty correction yet price increase in last quarter of 2020 up to now isnt really realistic at all.
It is way too fast or overbought on my part.

I don't have a lot of faith in 2021, especially if $30k doesn't hold.  New US govt administration will not be friendly to crypto.  World economies are on the bring of collapse right now.  And as that happens they will be desperate for more control.  We're already seeing a lot of that as a result of the 'covid excuse'... govts clamping down on their citizens freedom/travel/etc.  Don't let a tragedy go to waste.  But the markets were already nearing collapse, covid was just the trigger.

I think 2021 will be a bear year, and this run is a bull trap.  I anticipate regulations and at least one major exchange biting the dust - what if that was coinbase?  Not saying it will be, but what if.  I'm not hoping for a bear market, but I think the 'institutional' investment thing is BS given the shady Tether stuff going on.  And before anyone says "Tether is only 2% of BTC market cap"... look at the daily volume.  Tether has more volume than any other coin.  That's the biggest red flag.  Oh and also that tether.to is based on WordPress, what a joke.    

But why should institutional investment bring stability?  It may bring more volatility.  Especially if world economies are in flux.  

Lots of interesting speculations in this thread hoping for $50k+ and I hope that happens, but I have my doubts.  I will keep hodling regardless.  

[pugman]

Who says markets have to make sense? As the old saying from Keynes goes: "the markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."

Of course, there will eventually be another bear market, given that markets are cyclical. I just have a difficult time seeing it happen in the short or medium term. The Fed is being very careful not to let the markets falter, even if it means creating an asset bubble.

Well, I don't know, the market seems to be going in a different direction, at least temporarily. The price crashed by 10% percent in a day, so ionno buddy.

I get your point, however it feels at least a little bit that the bubble is breaking.

If the US sneezes, the world catches a cold. Remember that. I'm not in favor of American exceptionalism, but that's the world we live in. Other central banks are also mimicking what the Fed is doing, albeit in smaller amounts.

Yeah but for crypto-market, it is quite different i feel. This ain't no Wall Street, the volatility here is worse. Regardless of what central banks are doing or mimicking, they cannot control the market not even if their mom wanted to do so.

[Janation]

the reality of bitcoin is unpredictable, my hope is that this year bitcoin remains on the right track and there are no large FUDs in circulation in the crypto space. For a price that is currently very volatile, I hope that 50k can be reached by the end of 2021.

Considering the price change that happened, this will happen.

With a lot of people turning their heads into cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin in these times, there will be a lot of new investors. Another thing is the fact that there are a lot of platforms that may consider accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Increasing its adoption could lead to greater price range in the future.

[redsun114]

I believe people are making up numbers as they go with this I mean it is obvious that we are not in a situation where we could talk about a million dollars, that is not even possible right now with how little money is in bitcoin as of right now. However what people are mistaking is that, we will be there one day, not saying it will be soon, I am just saying that we "will" reach one million dollars and that's all that matters.

Maybe it will take 20 years? I wouldn't really know but as long as we have this kind of increase going, in 3 to 5 years we are guaranteed to be over 100k by the looks of it, then we need to just be a bit increase and less drop more increase less drop and eventually it will get to 1 million dollars. Really interesting idea is that in 2021 if we keep this up, we could actually be 100k, only 2.5x away from reality at this point and frankly I can see that happening.

[lukikato]

I hope the price will go back to 10,000 $ because now the price is in a very high range to stay at that price

[LogitechMouse]

I will be very conservative if I predict that $50,000 will be the maximum price of Bitcoin this year but that is my prediction.

We are in a bull run obviously but this run will have its ending anytime soon. We already saw corrections happening because of news. More corrections will happen anytime if the resistance of ~$40,000 will not be pierced and stay above that price. After all, all of us here are just predicting so lets just wait for whatever happens. We've seen Bitcoin doubled its price in less than a month and it might happen again or not .
