in my opinion there are two things that might cause the price of bitcoin to increase. the first possible rise is that this is the manipulation of the popes. the second maybe this increase is the impact of bitcoin which will be reduced by half in May. with bitcoin reduced by half will attract investors to buy more bitcoin. so the demand for bitcoin increases.
it is possible this happened because of the whale play in it, even at this time speculation many people have proven that the arrival of Chinese holidays can cause a decline. I also believe that half of bitcoin can increase market demand so prices can jump significantly
Topic: OMG, BitCoin is spiking !!! What is causing this ??? (Read 566 times)
With the news of war dying down and nothing major going on, I feel like this bull had nothing to do with the mainstream news, I mean looking at it now it is at a healthy level even tho nothing is going on in the world right now.
I wouldn't be shocked if we get to learn that there was absolutely nothing related for the spike and it was just a due time increase that people started to buy at the same time triggering even more and more and more people buying, that sounds as reasonable as all the other theories put forward. Of course, there has to be some sort of logical explanation why people said "enough" in the past 10 days instead of any time previously or in the future, but what happened has happened and questioning why will not change the price in the end.

There he goes again.. 
Events happen as always in the financial industry but that doesn't mean it will affect bitcoin as always.
Before, price increase are just regular things that happens in the bitcoin community specially here.
Why else should there be any reason behind now?
There is none! It is just a normal fluctuation. Live with it! It will happen normally everyday.
For people who are just new to this market would normally have these kind of reactions.When prices do move on high volatility rate and intensity they would tend to panic and question out on what is happening.Events happen as always in the financial industry but that doesn't mean it will affect bitcoin as always.

They are tying up anything when btc spikes but actually these are just normal day here on crypto.News can be also a big factor on prices but not all the times where these sentiments are effective because
even on random times and days where theres no news, the price do still behave this way.

When there is a lot of demand for prices, there will definitely be a significant price surge. When demand is low you can buy up.
Take advantage of that momentum to take a reasonable profit, for now the price still shows a bullish pattern. So the buying option might still be possible before ATH.

Last week when bitcoin spiked with higher price many predictor said bitcoin raise up to higher price because Iran finished for attack United State in Iraq, but today without have any conflict war Iran and United State bitcoin spiking with higher price, any one know why bitcoin suddenly can raise to higher price without have anything good news with bitcoin before.
^ That is because we dont know what really happens in the market. This recent spikes happened is unpredictable, it is hard to point out who are those making the bitcoin price rising up, not only bitcoin it is also the whole crypto market space was experienced the massive pumped up. There are too many speculations out there and also there are too many crypto enthusiasts asking about this, but one thing that comes up in my mind. The "whales", nothing else just because of them, they are manipulating the market since start.

@Oceat
I wouldn't be so assured to call the current price stable. If you look closely, Bitcoin has only been in the $8000 range for a week now and even during that time it has fallen below the$7,000 $8,000, without even mentioning that it happened suddenly.
1 week is really too short to define a stable period. Just look today, half of the market is decreasing, if it continues we could go again below the $8k line at the end of the week.
And personally I don't buy 'Iran vs USA' or 'halving is coming' stories

Maybe whales are on the move or another hype is happening around. but in my opinion this spike happening in bitcoin price is just natural because of previous news and happening, it won't give much meaning or something take an action to me because I know it won't last long. so let's not believe much or let our guard down to what's happening right now.
I highly doubt about that because there's no reason why they have to move anyway but my thought on this is that it's just the traders who made to move the market price. This could be a sign of another bull trap but it seems that the price is quite stable and there's still a chance to move to break the $9k if it continue to rise.If the price goes crazy then suddenly dump then maybe I can conclude that it's a trap but seems price goes stable that's why I think it became normal to see those dump coming up but we should prepare if this is manipulating dump to avoid losses but I still believe we are not seeing the real effect yet since it's so early to tell that away so for me I will do short trades for a while and let see if we can surpass the price and reach the $9k or not.
We really don't know on why does the bitcoin's value is rising and there is no news about crypto or whatsoever, it might be whales are making their move or some investor are buying a lot of bitcoin because of the halving.
It's really hard to analyze the market flows and that's why we just nees to always take advantage of what's happening since we will surely get profit from it.

At some point there are no more available coins on the market. It looks that the altcoin season started as well, so money is going in to the market from all directions. Especially when you have to buy Bitcoin first to buy your altcoin.
However, it is halving year, so expect some bullish explosions ahead of us and hopefully a rising market percentage for bitcoin.
Does anyone know what is causing the huge spike in Bitcoin Price today A big change in price can usually be traced to some event, but I do not see anything significant today to explain this
Now I just have to figure out when to sell the spike, and pull out some profits
Hard Facts

same as you I also do not see any major events that make the price of bitcoin soared. these two weeks bitcoin has continued to increase. many say that the rise in bitcoin at the beginning of January was the result of the Iran-American conflict. but at this time the conflict between the two countries began to subside but the price of bitcoin continues to increase. from this I can conclude that actually bitcoin doesn't need a reason to go up and down.

I thinks its the lead up to the halving that is making the price increase. I think there will be FOMO that will take the price to a new high by the middle of the year.

There were big news during the bear market but it didn't pushing up the price because of those big news. Now that there is no news about crypto, the price keeps pushing up.
It didn't make sense but I guess the manipulation you are telling will be acceptable.
it has been here for long time,and we cannot do anything about that because that is the reality of every profiteering there are some manipulation.There were also users saying this is because of the FOMO for the next halving will happen in few months.
well it is too early for the Next halving to bring this run,but we can see if this stays for the other months come. 
9k is very close to the 200 day average. I think price moved alot as we 'broke' the 50 day, it had tried and failed to do as much 3 times previously so that was a running break through that wall that continued past it and upwards I guess.
Its not really spiking just a combination of buyers bullish on that push past but also the stop orders on short sellers, these turn into buyers as well hence when a line fails to hold its creating a rush and rapid movement from the reversal. Traders watch and try to capture these areas where price changes so fast that its profitable justifiable to accelerate risks and deploy leverage. At some point or time those hot money speculators leave the price and we get some adjustment downwards again, this continual cycle is always in the price some.
