Yeah, we have seen $30,000 already or even $31,000. So for now the biggest challenge that we are looking at $40,000 and it seems very far from now as the price is below still below $30,000 although there are some semblance that we could reach that price again. Nevertheless, price still looks good and maybe we can see some action this month. At least $32,000 could be our first goal this August and maybe we can talk about $40,000 in the last quarter as usually we headed strong that month specially we are anticipating the bull run next year after the halving.
I believe it will take sometime for us to witness Bitcoin surging to $40k . there is not enough news to bring hype to the market and most of the news recently is about SEC suing exchanges. The halving that will happen next year might be one of the bigger catalyst to see Bitcoin surging to $40k. Only news that creates huge hype and FOMO will move the Bitcoin market price to $40k but it looks like it won't happen anytime soon.
Yes, as much as we wanted to see this early and taste $40k and see our portfolio growing in terms of fiat, it's not going to happen. On the other hand, getting to $30k is already a problem as well. As we touch it briefly and then the it didn't sustain it's run in the last couple of days and so the price is < $30k again.
There are a lot of negative news and then those perma bears used it to create FOMO amongst cypto investors . So I also believed that it might take some time to reach our goal of $40k at the end of the year.
It is not easy to make predictions about bitcoin. One thing I see is that in June and July people are quite bullish in the market, but come August, when bitcoin is still under $30k. People are losing their optimism and starting to have a negative view of the market and people no longer want to expect bitcoin to hit $35k or $40k. That's why I don't want to make too many predictions about bitcoin because when it doesn't turn out the way we expect, we get disappointed quickly.
Personally, I don't care if bitcoin goes up or down, because I accumulate bitcoin monthly and will sell it when it hits a new ATH. But those who are expecting it to increase in price this month should not give up hope. Bitcoin is unpredictable.
