Everyone here is optimistic that the price of bitcoin will be reaching the line of $5,000 very soon or if not before this year ends. I have no more doubts about bitcoin and I'm just subjecting those speculations that are unreal and very exaggerated. And you should buy if you have budget for it but if not then just hold the bitcoins that you have. I don't care about those forks and other events that are about to come, we are many believers that bitcoin will increase either those forks will come.
If people believe that the price of bitcoins will hit $5k at the end of the year then they can afford to buy it even at the current price as they will surely make profits when price reach to that level as I don't think that price will crash now as it has started to move upwards again slowly and steadily and we can expect much higher price in next couple of days or weeks.
Holding bitcoins for long term is the best choice to make to get higher profits in future as bitcoin will always be on top in compare to other crypto currencies and its getting higher and higher now and we will see the same increase in price in coming days too so its better to buy some bitcoins and hold it till the year end as price will be much higher by that time.
