it is always a good time to buy, and never to sell(unless you like shorting all the time), this isn't the price target of bitcoin, if someone think that it is better for him to forget about bitcoin and return with its toilet paper...ops i mean fiat
if you think that the price will rise to 10k, 1200 is nothing in comparison and it will anyway be a good time to buy the same can be said about 10k and so on(it is evident that the more we move up, the more difficult will be for bitcoin to rise).. price is relative, it's the potential behind it that matter
I cannot even begin to think about the kind of jumps in price that would be made when bitcoin goes towards 10k.. It would not be dollar cents, it would be dollars at a time :O
Currently whales and early adopters can easily dump the price down with -10%, that would mean in todays price that Bitcoin would lose around $27 considering Bitcoin's current price is $270.
If Bitcoin indeed once manages to be at $10K, it will be devastating once whales decide to dump it down to $9K within a minute.
