This is the time to look around and ask: What else can be done to sustain BTC growth? How to increase interest in BTC? Everything possible is already being done on the stock exchange. Where are the other growth points? Growth points in increasing demand and interest. Experienced people and beginners love to play. Therefore, growth points can be in expanding people's awareness and offering new tools.
I think it's time to make websites with prices in different currencies: dollars, euros and crypto. It seems to me that this will contribute to the popularization of cryptocurrencies. Strengthening the popularity of cryptocurrencies would lead to an increase in their rate, to more lively trading, and as a result, to strengthening the status of cryptocurrencies.
I don't think tje future of BTC (and crypto) is in the hands of the individual, rather governments and bigger players because their addoption (or lessening of regulations / finding a middle ground) is what can push it through to the next stage, so us little people have done their part (more or less) and now we need to see how all this unfolds.
This is a big issue, because when governments and whales take the main roles in crypto universe, it means the environment is becoming centralized and individuals are still slaves of the mainstream system. It actually defeats the purpose of bitcoin. Individuals are the main benefited by bitcoin, therefore should be the main interested ones in making it work by adopting it, using it daily and consequently splitting bitcoins among most hands as possible in order to avoid centralization and heavy market manipulation.
Somehow it has happened along the years, because as we can see market manipulation isn't so strong right now in a point to completely crash the market to the bottom. Support levels are decent and the more adoption grows, more stable the market must be.
About actions to raise price, they are all about increasing demand. And not only demand from investors specifically. Most people in the world aren't investors, but wasters/spenders. To grab this public, businesses must integrate bitcoin to their platforms and offer promotions to customers. For an example: credit/debit bitcoin cards with generous cashback feature, high cashback percentage from purchases made with bitcoin, discounts when shopping with bitcoin an so on... It depends the creativity of each business to encourage people using cryptocurrency.
