Please I want to know the factor behind the rise and fall of Bitcoin price?

Bitcoin total supply is 21 million BTC
Circulating supply is 19.46 million BTC
Through halving, the supply introduced into circulation is reducing. It was first 50 BTC. After 210000 blocks, it reduced to 25 BTC and so on. It is 6.25 BTC now and it will reduce to 3.125 in the next halving and so on.

The law of demand of a product, is that the higher the demand the higher the price of the product.
The law of supply of a product, is that the lower the supply the higher the price.

Satoshi made bitcoin total supply to be 21 million. It is not increasing.

As people buy more bitcoin with the constantly reducing supply into circulation and total supply of bitcoin of 21 million, the price is increasing. People know this and they buy more bitcoin.

That's true, it's actually the suppy and demand. And those factors are also affected by some other things like the news that spreads quickly through the web.
Like what you're seeing today, the price plummeted a lot and that's how that news of Space X's sell off affected the market entirely. There are also other factors but that's the majority as of the moment.

And what, ultimately, could be other reasons than supply and demand? Bitcoin is decentralized, so there is no way to force anyone to sell or buy it.

Accordingly, your question goes deeper, what is the reason for the rise or fall in demand for bitcoin at some points in time, which then affects its rate. And, as mentioned above, there are many such reasons: from the expectation of the arrival and actual entry of large players into the market and, accordingly, the exit of other large players from the market, to the adoption or ban of bitcoin in individual countries. Also, large players can engage in buying or selling bitcoin to stimulate further buying or selling on some informational occasion. And there are many other natural or artificial reasons for increasing demand or supply.

But in the end, it still depends on supply and demand.

It is not merely influenced by that.  It is defined.  Every thing that has a price is defined by that.  Food, houses, gold, reputation, labor.  What you want to know is what influences those two.  Well, in the Bitcoin world, where supply remains the same, we can be sure it cannot be influenced by anything.  So the price is determined by the demand only.  There really is not a standard way to understand why demand rises and falls, which is probably why ordinary traders cannot make money easily out of buying and selling this.

Supply and demand factors impact market sentiment due to various occurrences that can affect the price of Bitcoin positively or negatively. Market sentiment occurs automatically without anyone being able to control the increase and decrease in the price of Bitcoin. The negative issues raised in various media also greatly affect supply and demand. As happened today, the price of Bitcoin began to fall due to whales releasing their assets on a large scale. Supply and demand are part of the factors that occur (Negative) and (Positive).

Economics is universal for any product. The more people desire it, the more the price increases and the less people desire it, the lower the price. With the supply the reverse happens, the higher the supply the more diluted the product is in the market and the lower the price.
Both have to work together however, if there is no demand for a product, the price will be low no matter how scarce it is.

We can only give simplified explanations to this here, but demand and supply is a complex and is regulated by many other factors which can drive the price up or pull it down.

News play an important role for the rise and fall of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is very volatile since most of its traders and investors are very sensitive on a little bit of news. This is a double edge sword since Bitcoin price dump hard for a big issue in crypto such as FTX and Luna saga even though Bitcoin is not directly connected to it. While this kind of sensitivity is good too whenever there’s a hype in the market such as the ET application of Blackrock which is not yet effective yet people keeps buying due to the news.

Supply and demand is still one of the reason of rise and fall especially if there’s already an established trend in the market. S&D is a constant factor that affects the price changes on any asset.

There are threads in your local board that discuss on this issue, why discuss there instead of coming here to create new topic. This topic is talking about the same thing https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5463693.0 and also. Well if you must know. As others have highlighted it, let me also put my mouth. Even though bitcoin is decentralized in it operation the my price is still influenced by the whales because the more bitcoin acquired by people, the more the price rise and the more people left, the more it reduce so yes the buying and selling by whales have an influence in it.

Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) is the reason why the demand for Bitcoin drops which ultimately leads to a drop in the price. When there is unfavourable news about the sector investors begin to sell off their coins which drags the price down. Unfavorable news like potential hacks, sell off by major investors, country bans, and strict regulation, are all instigators of FUD. But favorable news like bitcoin adoption by nations or big corporations, Bitcoin halving, and flexible policies will lead to higher demand and less selloff. The bottom line is that just like every other good or service if there are more sellers the price will drop, but when there are more buyers than sellers the price goes up.

As a comparison you should also need to look for random answers in various existing media, so that there are many considerations that can be analyzed regarding the process of rising and falling bitcoin prices and the more you read, the more insight you will have on the issues you want to know.

The laws of demand and supply are two things that cannot be separated from all forms of products that have a sale value and both are always influenced in any market including bitcoin. Another reason may be that some events occur which may affect global financial stability, market sentiment, Fud news and others. But sometimes the process of decline is not always affected by it, more precisely it is the process of supply and demand that might work bigger in terms of the rise and fall of bitcoin.

Supply and demand in the market is a basic influence that always exists in every market, so it is very common so everyone only needs to know other factors that can also affect the market and affect the increase and decrease in Bitcoin prices in the market. And I've seen in the previous year that the price of Bitcoin is also always affected by bad events and also bad news which can make many people panic.

So that factor can also be the cause of the decline and increase in the market for Bitcoin apart from the demand and supply sector which is already the basic influence for anything. I am sure that over time you will also see the effects arising from events and news for Bitcoin so that you yourself will realize that basically there are several factors that can cause a decrease and increase in the price of Bitcoin.

We can only give simplified explanations to this here, but demand and supply is a complex and is regulated by many other factors which can drive the price up or pull it down.

The very reason demand and supply is always represented in a curve like chart, this pictorial representation shows basically three factors Demand, supply and elasticity. But behind this three factors are hidden trends that triggers this moves. Take demand for example been that Bitcoin is a highly speculative asset class and highly volatile, there could be draw backs in demand and if the demand falls it will always result in a directly proportional draw back in supply thereby affecting the percentile  change in the quantity demanded.

[palle11]

I think the major factor that moves this market is manipulation. Manipulation in the that it may be real or actual manipulation just to push hodlers mind to a direct usually to fear so they could dump and the whales buy in more or they push hodlers to buy more and the price move up for the whales to dump and crash the market. This is a simple fact about the demand and supply of btc. So it will depend on you if you want to follow the crowd or you are determine to follow your own personal conviction.

You don't need to be confused about the reasons why bitcoin prices change continuously, if you study economic concepts then you will know the basic things that affect bitcoin price changes at any time and that is no different from price changes that occur in other investment instruments such as gold and property, besides that the role of the government also greatly influences the demand and sale of bitcoin in the market, when there is a good issue from the government regarding bitcoin and altcoins then immediately the price of bitcoin will change, besides that the factor that most often affects the price of bitcoin is the halving moment which usually occurs every 4 years once, when that happens then the bitcoin price will change drastically.

[BIT-BENDER]

Firstly you can actually get information for searching, you would get multiple information but you can reached a good level of understanding and then can ask your question here on the forum.

Concerning your question I believe you are not leaving under a rock I also believe that you have seen some product increase in price, take for instance a basket of tomato during it season and it's rampant the price is low but during off season or scarcity the price increase. That's because the supply has reduced but the demand for it went up. Same with Bitcoin demand and supply chain.

[DeathAngel]

So many people try to get definitive answers of why the price goes up or down, what it’s reacting to etc. The answer is many things affect the price, both positive & negative news or events can have an effect. It will always settle though & one bitcoin will be worth what the market deems its value.

This is correct, but it's also not very useful for predicting the price. The price is formed by the current active supply and demand. It changes all the time. If someone decides to dump hundreds or thousands of their coins, they suddenly increase the supply, if they fill the existing buy orders below the current price, the price will go down. If someone brings a lot of fiat and starts buying BTC from the market - they increased demand and the price goes up.

It's hard to predict where the price will go, because you can't predict the actions of thousands or millions of individuals. You can't predict how people will react to certain news or to market events. Sometimes Bitcoin is correlated to other markets, sometiems its not. Sometimes it reacts to global events, sometimes its not.

We know that Bitcoin tends to have long-term trends, but those trends might not repeat in the future.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Theres a gap in bitcoin cme that needs to be filled probably will touch down for that level and eventually do a reversal. Market seems to be roller coster ride for now and the fact that this is ghost month right now. Many factors affecting it but mostly through trading perspective. Some fundamental might pulled it down but its obvious that there is not much volume thats why its down.
