Bitcoin speculation thread for February

[Cityhunter34]

One big thing about Bitcoin is that it can increase any time so I don't use to bother myself too much about the price no matter how deep it is. Honestly, I think we might likely see more dip this February because last month was some how good with Bitcoin price but I was even expecting more than the way it was still it could not get to 100k which many of us here was waiting for the amount but unfortunately it could not work, although right now the price is quite increasing so let's keeping on watching because we still have more 28 days to go.

What do you think about bitcoin price in February, will bitcoin increase in price or continue to fall or it will increase in this month?

Bitcoin is unlikely to drop significantly again this month because the market is likely to move positively this month after bleeding heavily at the end of last month. this month seems to be a moment of recovery, where investors are starting to accumulate again after seeing good opportunities for accumulation at current prices, and that will likely cause the bitcoin to rise by several percent this month. I am quite positive about this month.

I'm relieved to see Bitcoin's price back at $78k. I was concerned when it dropped to $75k, but I stayed calm and bought a bit more. I'm not making a big move, just a small addition to my holdings. The market's unpredictable - it might drop further, stabilize, or bounce back. No one really knows what's next, and we might see some tough times ahead. But I'm not worried; if the price drops, I'll get more buying opportunities. Either way, I'm just keeping on accumulating Bitcoin.

Bitcoin's price is $78,627.79, up 2.87%. Predictions for 2026 range from $75,000 to $225,000, with targets of $120,000-$175,000. Standard Chartered forecasts $150,000 by year-end. Key factors influencing price include institutional adoption, regulatory clarity, and monetary policy. Support levels are $74,000-$76,000, resistance at $92,000-$94,000 and $100,000. Fibonacci extensions indicate potential targets of $132,000 and $163,000. Given Bitcoin's volatility, predictions are uncertain. What are your thoughts on Bitcoin's 2027 prospects?

Welcome February of 2026 and seeing by your self how decreasing of bitcoin price dump until $74k as most lowest price yesterday, I don't expect much current bitcoin still on downtrend dominance and have many bad news global happening not only for bitcoin but also gold, silver and stock get drastically dump together. I am not worry yet about bitcoin decreasing and moment for our self have prepare fund to buy back bitcoin and I believe can't get this great moment investing in bitcoin at lower price.
Possibility for February likely bitcoin still difficult break out how the global condition all sector get downtrend moment, wish the world economic better and the middle or the end of February bitcoin will break out back to the higher price.

This month could likely be the worst month for bitcoin because we already open the month with strong bear trend and this shows that the bull run hasn't started yet. As we know there were several speculation that this year we could see a supper cycle coming but I don't know if this was on the reversed where we could see a strong and a solid bear market. From how I have observed the market I wouldn't mind saying that we may like see the market going down lower than this current price where it would end up touching the price range of 30k as the lowest we could see for the year or for the entire bear market, and of course we know what that means, when it goes down this way it gives investors the more chance to keep accumulating the more in preparation for the bull run that is to come.

Do you mean Bitcoin could drop to $30k? Many people do not even believe that bitcoin will fall below $70k, and they think that $60k is the lowest bitcoin could reach. Many people will disagree with your prediction. But in recent days, I have also seen some people sharing the view that bitcoin could absolutely fall to $30k-$40k if history repeats itself. Although Im not entirely convinced yet, I would not rule this scenario out.

If Bitcoin drops to $30k, I think more people will panic than see it as an opportunity because that price is beyond their imagination. 

If you follow the historical data of bitcoin then you would know that dropping to $30k is realistically. Of course anything possible in the space but even if we see bitcoin that price range there wouldn't a day I will panic instead I wouldn't mind sourcing for more money to go invest in bitcoin to enable me hold more fraction of sat, then waiting for when it would increase again. Those who wouldn't see it as an investment opportunity are people are not yet to understand how bitcoin works or how the historical data works. You can reflects back to 2 circle past then you would surely know is actually very possible for the price to drop to that range.

Yeah, that will be the perfect opportunity to really get a lot of Bitcoin and accumulate if it reaches $30k. Majority are doing DCA for that, but in any case we see that price and then by chance we have money, for sure we will grab that big opportunity as it could be once in a lifetime chance. But all time high of $126k to $30k, that's a big decline and then look at the bigger future, long term and wait for the next halving then after that it's bull run once again. So let's see, of course, we might not be praying for that biggest drop as there could be a lot that is going to panic and don't know what to do. But if we still believed in Bitcoin then there's no question that we will go and scoop on that biggest chance we got.

For February, I think BTC will increase, but only to test whether BTC will trend upwards again or not. So, at this time, it is very difficult to predict where BTC prices will go, but for me, whether it goes down or up, it doesn't matter because if the price goes down, I will buy it because it would be a shame if BTC's falling price was not bought. So, in conclusion, I think BTC will be able to rise in February if there are a lot of buyers at the moment, but if there are a lot of sellers, it seems that BTC in February will have the potential to reach the $60k range. We'll just have to see what happens later.

At this point it's easy to expect bitcoin keep going down, we are in the bear market and prices falling isn't really that shocking, everyone expects that to happen one way or another. The trick isn't to know when its going down, it's before bitcoin starts to go down. Knowing it is going down right now is easy and everyone can predict that, but knowing that when it was above 120k was the key figure to make money.

Imagine if you sold at 120k, and buying right now, even though it's very low, you would have so much more bitcoins and your tricked worked perfectly but we were speculating above $150k at that times and market as usual surprised us and similarly if bitcoin takes a U turn from here then that must be another surprise for sure.

You know one thing about people is that they never understood how the market operates on a regular basis and anyone who has been following the market for decades or for nearly a decade should be able to understand that the market is not always constant in price, sometimes it goes lower, while most time goes higher and that is what makes it tradable at all time. In fact, this is the main reason why people keep trading on Bitcoin since it's known as volatile and versatile assets where people can't predict at any given time.

As trader or investors it is actually a very good opportunity to meet Bitcoin when it is at it's bottomless part, this could enable them to make more accumulation where they could hold till the market changes it's direction to potential bull run where they could hold to make profits from their holdings. You know nowadays people always expect the market to always go bull without knowing that it has a principle where it would go up and at sometimes it goes lower but then they always wishes it keeps going higher without even witnessing any downtime.

I agree, price going down is easy to expect and should not be an issue at all, it is going to be quite possible to see things change and we will definitely have a period where it is going to be very dangerous to keep on buying at this level. We should let it go down and then we can decide to buy some other time.

Short trades are still dangerous too because while we know long term it will go down, it is not going to be straight down, there will be moments when it doesn't go down or moments it even goes up a bit, so short futures is a risk. So for the time being only thing we can do is be out, put it on something boring like savings, and then you can buy back later when the price bottoms out in a few months.

Well, February didn't start very well for either BTC or alts. As you can see, there was another dump, and this time the BTC price fell below $73k. However, then there was a sharp reversal, and now BTC is trading close to $77k. Personally, I expect that BTC could now pump up to $85-86k in the short term, as there are many positions concentrated in this range that could be liquidated.

[Jegileman]

Some people said bitcoin will not fall but we all know that we are in bear season, just that some people thought bitcoin is matured enough not to experience a bear market, but many data has proven that we are in bear market now since bitcoin was unable to get to $100000.

What do you think about bitcoin price in February, will bitcoin increase in price or continue to fall or it will increase in this month?

The present price is $78380.

We should also as speculators not always forget the fact that the market has been working on a consensus and will continue to work on that same consensus unless prove abortive. The four years cycle is showing a strong dominance till now and we should not overlook it and think that the market will just follow our intuition of it. The Bitcoin market is always volatile, so even if the market is finally going into a bear season, we should have in mind that it won’t maintain a bearish direction forever but will also go up a little during the process, but will have a more stronghold of a bear direction more. This February hasn’t shown any signs of a market recovery, so it could as well end up being another bearish month for Bitcoin.

The previous prices of Bitcoin in some months and years back will make you to know that price of Bitcoin can change at any time...if the price of Bitcoin increases last year February, it doesn't mean that the price will continue to rise or fall anytime it approaches the same months...
I know very well about bitcoin and it's price, so the price of Bitcoin changes beyond people's expectations, so right now that the price of Bitcoin is dropping, nobody knows the benchmark of it, until when it will rise again...

For the aspects of bearish season, it maybe or it may not, if we are in bearish season, actually, bearish season affects other cryptocurrencies not only bitcoin...
