Speculations will always be there especially when a good name has earned a lot of great feedback. A lot may have had talks and comments about it, sometimes, some will make their own cryptocurrency just to be equal or even higher. But those who trusted and tested Bitcoins already knew that once a master will always be a master!

From last few days, so many negative news regarding btc have been aired. Then lot of people speculate the price of bitcoin and just after that I have noticed some significant change in the price index of btc. Do you think that these speculation affect the price of btc a lot???

Speculations and fud are just the same, if most of the people will prefer to create black propaganda's in order to lessen the amount of investors then there is a chance for the price of bitcoins to decrease even more in the future.

I think speculation is always there in a currency or crypto market, no harm in speculation and the whole world and the life here is always a speculation. Bitcoin price is based on the news spread out and good/bad things happening about crypto around the world and the major things is supply and demand of it.

I don't think speculation plays a vital role in creating negative for Bitcoin.

Speculation has both positive and negative effect on the market whichever one that outweigh the other that is what will prevail in the crypto currency market and that is what has been happening in the previous years.

It depends on the speculation, if most of the speculations that is being created by different users are all negative then there is a huge chance for the price to sink in since there will be more people who are going to sell their coins more than holding it.

There is no doubt FUD affects the market of bitcoin and when you add the volatility of bitcoin to the mix this only make things worse, however while this can affect the price negatively there are moments where the opposite happens and we saw this in bubble of the last year, where many positive news came at the same time and we saw a huge growth in the price of bitcoin.

The negative news about bitcoin affects the price of it, not the speculation. Speculation is just a prediction towards its price what will happen. But it depends on how good or bad the news is to change the price of bitcoin.

It was actually depending on the speculation of the current user who created it if the topic is negative or positive, there are companies as well and not just cryptocurrency that are being affected by articles and that is the reason why we should not believe on speculations easily.

Every news either positive or negative ones can really make such impact into the price but this doesnt happen anytime. Sometimes fake news or fuds doesnt make any movement  at all depending on what kind of news is being aired. Speculations would be just a normal thing and  Fundamentals would always been good to get some basis on your trades.It might not be accurate but chances would really be there for you to profit or even buying the possible lowest dip of price.
The mental state of the ones trading in the market is very important as well, when the participants are very bullish about the market FUD and other bad news have a tendency to be ignored and only the good news have an effect in the market, and when the participants of the market are bearish then FUD has an easier time affecting the market, this is one of the reasons of why the price does not seem to recover since people are simply too afraid to keep investing in the market right now.

Obviously it does. There is actually no market even outside the cryptocurrency market that news either negative or positive will not affect it fundamentally. So far, instead of being a currency utilized for what it exactly is, bitcoin has turned to more of a speculative asset which obviously has affected the high level of volatility over the years, with the level of FOMO rush in, as well as weak hands. In cases like this, the impact is always going to be felt.

Yes it is, speculation,rumors ,fud are the common factors that affects bitcoin price negatively. As long as this factors exist expect the price to go down or up.  But the main reason is its because of the demand and.supply.
These all things play an important role in giving push to panic selling and this is what I always advice young investors that they should not trust rumors talking about the end of bitcoin, replacement of bitcoin by some altcoin and stuff like that. They are spread intentionally by the competitors of bitcoin in order to attract bitcoin investors for their coins. Smart people never fall prey to them and keep supporting bitcoin.

It Will affect Bitcoin market value negatively only if the speculation talk about negative effect on Bitcoin which will definitely create panic selling and that will lead to low price of Bitcoin and probably other altcoins.
All the markets are easily influenced by the news what it happens with this market is that since it is relatively new the bad news can move the market very easily and this gets amplified by some other actors like the whales that take advantage of this and begin to sell some of their coins to try to create panic and force people to sell, this does not always works but when it does the whales then stop selling and then they wait for the price to reach the bottom and they now can buy bitcoin for a very low price.

Yes many people who invested their money in bitcoin are those who do not know better about bitcoin and do not understand the price structure and the chart so they rely on the others speculations and when they hear about any negative speculation then they sell their bitcoin and because of that fool decision the price of bitcoin reduces.

Speculation negatively will affect the Bitcoin as negative news and statements discourage people to invest and take the ways towards the market and this negative speculation reduces the interest of people. Speculation positively will affect the coin positively and will encourage the people to take the ways straight towards the market as the market these days are on the increase trend but achievable and in the circle of our ability.

Yes, it can affect the price movement of Bitcoin because it can trigger it to those people who are affected by their emotions. From my point of view, crypto value depends on the speculation because we know that it's decentralized wherein no one control its value.

It's a known fact. Even the stock market can be affected by speculations. One negative rumor can spread to panicky holders and then panic selling happens. It will snowball into more people selling, often at a loss.

Bad news always have effect on btc and that is common in this world not just in btc. If there's a bad news, people spreading FUD will follow, followed by dump and that's make the situation worst. Any kind of news related to crypto have effect from slight to big.

Because people tend to listens to what other people has to say.
Ironically, people do indeed take all the negativity for granted, but they completely ignore all the positivity that reaches them in the exact same way. I fail to understand why exactly this keeps happening.

If you are subject to this form of manipulation, it should work both ways, but it doesn't. The only thing that comes to my mind is manipulation. The average person always waits for a movement in order to act.

If whales initiate a dump after bad news, people think it's affecting the market because the price is going down, so they sell. If whales decide not to pump after bullish news, it means that people won't be buying.

It's makes sense, but there might also be a few other factors that play a role of importance.

Anything related to bitcoin will definitely affect the bitcoin price, whether it is a significant influence and minimal influence. Bitcoin prices will always be affected and this is a rational thing to happen. So anything related to bitcoin will make the bitcoin move. Well stay seen how the movement happened. Does the bitcoin move positively and or negatively.
