I think the price of bitcoin next year is expected to spike sharply. This is based on research from the research team. The research team predicts the price of Bitcoin will reach $100k early next year. Also in the long term bitcoin is worth up to $175k.
I am not going to challenge your statement about research team, but I understand about this crypto we never know what is going to happen in next movement because it's really unpredictable market and any movement can change things very quickly in any way.
As you already mention research team predicted about $100K next year, so I am feeling this is going to touch new all-time high this year without any doubt even we have some bad news around but still sentiments are going tin positive way and adoption is also happening very quickly as few countries working on soft policies for crypto and bitcoin is huge news for this community and bitcoin.
If nothing goes wrong in long term then surely we are going to watch new ATH in next few weeks because it's good time for this.
You are right and im not really stressing out myself when it comes to things that would happen in the future because it is everything unpredictable and you would just frustrate yourself if things you do expect
wouldnt happen on what you had anticipated and we've been here on this market for a while already and its just right that we shouldnt presume because everything is unpredictable it could neither go on ATH's
as of this year or we would be having some slump in price.
Thing here is that you do know on when to get in and on when to get out as a trader or investor.
