Hoping for $20k this year is out from the reality, weren't able to make at $15k this year since from the start which is too far from getting back into its peak again.
People should give up their hope for a new ATH this year as its not likely to happen, the market is not stable but at least we've witnessed some good recover this year, and this time BTC is dropping again, it only stayed at $9K for awhile, now dropped to$8K, it's already a big improvement if the price will end up to $10,000 this year.
Though we are a little bit disappointing to see this cause we fail again from our expectations and even suffer losses form our investment but it never means that we are going to stay like this forever. We could still see the bright side sooner, only we have to be patient.
of course, this market that we are witnessing now are just temporary because if BTC will really succeed, it will explode again and there is no limit on the price and only us who can control the price, it could go as high as $50K, $100k, or even more, only time could tell.
