BITCOIN AT 15.500 $ - WHAT IS GOING ON???

in bitcoin •  7 years ago 

Bitcoin is SKY ROCKETING! I did a post last week about the price being round 10 K, and everyone said it will crash, but IT HASNT!!! It is at the highest level right now and its crazy as it keeps growing! 

I am like a sponge right now - sucking up as much information as i can!! This is so crazy, i have been involved in trading so much like never before, and it is soo exciting! For most of you this is how it started and why you got onto Steemit. For me I got onto steemit because I was passionate about food and wanted to do build the platform, but now I am also learning it all about crypto! Sooo crazy how life just guides you into different paths. 

What crypto did you guys invest into? 

Thoughts on Bitcoin? Can it reach 25 k by the end of this year? Before this seemed like a ridiculous claim.. but I dont think it is anymore!!! I am sooo hyped!! Comment your predictions on the price of Bitcoin by the end of december!

This month also sees the introduction of the futures from CMC and a couple of others.

A lot of people are saying this will increase speculation on Bitcoin and push the prices higher but i'm a bit more cautious.

Though the above is true the opposite will also be true. The big players who think Bitcoin is a bubble about to pop will be able to short the future which will put downward pressure on the price. As far as i know, it's the first real time this will be possible so who knows how it will play out.

I think there's another week till the official launch so we could be nudging $20k by then...

yeahh we are at 18 k updated!!! lol it will grow further, but yes its more suspicious!! !!

This is an unbelievable up trend

I sold half of my bitcoin in to ethereum 2 weeks ago thinking the market would start to balance out the ratio! 100k dollar mistake

Ouch! that's gotta hurt.

I think it has LOTS of potential to hit $25k by end of year. Just based on the rate of increase....though expect some dips as people cash out.

And if you noticed, STEEM is also going up! Yesterday it peaked at $2.41 and as of right now it's at $1.77.

I think it's time to load up on more STEEM...I think next year it will hit close to the $10 range

shiiit that will be exciting!!!!

FYI...BTC had a peak today of $18,464. That means, from 5 hours ago when you made this post, it's gone up $3k.

There's Bitcoin Fever spreading!

What's the source of that chart?

It is highly unlikely that Bitcoin will hit $25K by end of this year. January next year? sure.

You have to take in the consideration of milestones of $10K, $15K, $20K price point. With each of these milestones, people have set themselves a target to sell their part of or all of their holdings. Meaning lot of sell orders at this price point and the market will scale back a little and will eventually move up in day or two.

We saw this very recently at $10K milestone. As soon as BTC hit $10K, lot of sell orders were hitting the exchanges and for day or two we had a dip and BTC price was down to $8K.

I think the same thing will occur now with $15K and next $20K price point, and at $20K the correction will last little longer to drag us to the end of the year.

yeah it is a good analysis and could happen. however the 8 k drop you talking about lasted such a short time, and barely enough before people bought it back again - especially those that are professionals. But for sure people will sell at each big milestone, to be safe! we shall see what happens, i think by next year same time price could be in 40 k mark. The hype around it, will just spread further and further!

I think you are right. I'm seeing questions about it in my fb groups that are unrelated to money or crypto. I'm shocked by the new interest just in the last couple of weeks. The groups I'm in are for health, authors, artists, and social media marketing for the most part. There's posts like, "Hey what does everyone know about bitcoin?" And then we are off because someone always knows something.

People saying it is fake do not realize that those who hold it are actually spending it "just like money." They think you can only sell it in exchanges.

Once grandma's like me find out you can use a debit card and buy coffee with it - they want to try. I only have my steemit account right now, but I am trying to figure out this wallet thing and progress. If it's got me interested - that says a lot for the old lady contingent.

Same time next year.. Anything could happen. 40K. 100K Who knows?! :)

@najarramsada
Yes at 15K and 20K there will be small pull backs, but what you are forgetting is that big fish and whales are just waiting to get in now, so at every small dip new big fish will get in and move the price up. Also remember the CME futures is being offered soon. People going into that marked would probably want to buy the underlying asset they are betting on.. That´s gonna be some huge money into BTC.
So I dont know. 25K for Christmas is not unrealistic.

But off course, a proper correction is not unrealistic either :)

while we were talking bitcoin reached already 18 k! yeah i feel correction will happen soon!

I think it will be at 20K by the end of December. Who knows after the First of the Year.

Yeah i predict 20-25 k as well!! :D crazy shit!

Yes, It's indeed crazy. I think that there will be a pullback now. And then it will go back to 15,000$ and then keep growing.
BITCOIN IS CRAZY - BUT WHAT'S MORE CRAZY ? PEOPLE THAT DON'T INVEST IN BITCOIN.

hahahahah love that!!!!

It will dip again before the end of the year, but January will see rise again! #prediction

hahahah yeah :D

It is sure its NOT going to the moon!

It is going to PLUTO !!!

HAHAHAHHAH

Really good job bro carry on thanks i like this post and your all post is very important and helpful thanks

Imagine that the price of unimaginable Bitcoin would increase so fast. I think it will be worth more than twenty thousand by the end of December.

yah maybe all these predictions are real!

Korean markets are pushing it.
"Glitches" in South African markets are pushing it.

Then the rest of the world jumps on.

It sill will probably correct. The $2k drop was just a slight trip in the run to the moon.

yeahhh oh you think the drop will be stronger and bigger?

I was expecting it to go down to $7,500 - $8,000 range.
It still could.

Korea and South Africa have instability/war issues right now.

Well, it will keep on getting higher until at least 100K by 2020.

yeah thats what they say!!

Steam no longer accepting bitcoin, due to high fees and volatility, is this a signal to tell everyone to calm down……

steem you mean? when was this ? what do you mean?

I have leaarned a lot about crypto in the 5 months i have been here and my prediction is 18k by end of year.

What is ahppening now will also happen inthe next 5 years to Steemit.
I just wrote a post of 5 Reasons why Steemit will be the bggsest crypto currency in the next few years.

We shall be at 18k end of year...expect more price growth next week as CME launches Fiutures contracts.

haha it already hit 18 k just now!!! !loool!!!

Let me adjust to 20k hehehe......like what is really happening.
It is getting tricky to write posts on Bitcoin prices of late.

You can start writing an article with a set price like 16k,by the time you finish writing,its at 16.3k and when you hit publish...boom 17k....

What an incredible grow, is it some money revolution happening in the world right now! It feels like! Excited to see where it all will go:)

yah i know!!! exciting! and scary!

I think Bitcoin is going up because it hit 10,000 and that got a lot of new people interested as it generated a lot of headlines in mainstream media.

It's still going to crash :-P

hahah but you mean crash as a temporary crash or forever ? :P

i follow you because i love this your post

I am new in this world so far as my opinion is concerned bitcoin has strong attraction for investors. I now all coins will grow in future especially I believe steemit will may its way to top. Please support me bye upvote and following me as I am new steamian.

Just a couple of weeks ago bitcoin was at $2,400 and I put off buying as I was expecting a dip. Wow did I get that one wrong?
I think anything is possible now with the upcoming big funds buying into bitcoin.
Plus just about everyone is talking about 'how can I buy bitcoins?'
So loads of new buyers trying to get in.

Plus two potential forks coming up.(doubling your holdings each time)

Predictions are often futile but I'll suggest $30,000 by Christmas.

yeahh i think that was a mistake, oh well not muc you can do! everyone wants to buy bitcoin now!! ooh bloody hell!!

Hi @molometer, what are these upcoming forks? Do you have any link. What is the timing?

Hi @allasyummyfood I have not looked into your food blogs, but your blogs on cryptocurrencies are thought provoking. You might like my blog last night: https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@swissclive/bitcoin-shoppers-go-bonkers-bitcoin-on-steroids-like-a-vortex-bitcoin-is-sucking-in-the-non-believers-futures-trading-on-cboe

I think we will see some very volatile trading in the futures. Whatever it does at the open, I expect it to do the opposite during the day. Could be good to trade with upper and lower limited orders.
