You should know the latest information about the world of cryptocurrency, especially bitcoin. If it comes bad information, FUD and the decision of a country to ban bitcoin it will make the bitcoin price go down. On the other hand, if many countries accept bitcoin as a means of transaction and a lot of positive news or information about bitcoin then certainly bitcoin price will go up. So, I feel that's affects the supply and demand for bitcoin.

Actually, the decline bitcoin prices can be overcome, if the investors aren't affected by some news that comes against bitcoin. For example, a FUD or a country will ban bitcoin, but investors don't use panic sell, but they just hodl their bitcoin I'm sure bitcoin price not go down.
It's more so of the community being supportive of what is on the market. They don't have to sell the coins that they have but they do.
That is why it's wise to just store your coin since almost everyone that is into Bitcoin wants some.

Supply and demand is the basics but the nitty gritty is the people who are involved in the markets and these people act rational at times and irrationally other times. This back and forth between rational and not gives rise to crazy unpredictable movements which not even the best of traders can pinpoint. Ie nobody knows why there is value all we know is this technology is great and we want to be involved with it.

i'm not an expert  but,,
Bitcoin also has its market where it is bought and sold. Therefore, demand & supply or surplus & deficit in the market determines its value.

Hi guys!
I'm new here and just wanna ask what determines bitcoin value?
I know that everything is about supply and demand, but would like to have a more detailed knowledge with regards to this.
Any help extended will be greatly appreciated guys.

Bitcoin is a decentralized entity, in which no one can manipulate its operation and wherein its value only depends on how the market goes. Bitcoin, follows the rule of supply and demand in which its value increases as its demand increases because of bitcoin's limited supply. Price changes in bitcoin is always due to some external factors, like its market as mentioned above, and the infrastructures surrounding the bitcoin community. Just like in some other form of investments, its value loses when investors pull out their assets.

It's always in supply and demand. If the price hike the traders sell their stocks that why sudden dip happen. When the price dip some try to hold it to avoid loses then the price will hike again. If you plan to trade better to study first the behavior of the market otherwise you will end up losing your money.

Any bad/good news about crypto currency like change in legal status of Bitcoin can affect the price.

Fud or fake news before any official announcement can trigger panic and dump in the price.

Marketcap is still very low so any whales can manipulate the price to make huge profit.

Bitcoin price is currently unknown. Also, a price depends only upon the supply and demand. Since, supply of Bitcoin is limited, we can only discuss about various factors which will increase the demand and hence push the price further up. These factors are generally related to adoption of Bitcoin by a country or any update in Bitcoin network to enhance it.

In some cases, there are negative news which bring sell out of coin, and the price falls. It is still in new stage, and hence the price is so volatile.

the value of bitcoin is governed by the law of supply and demand, which basically states that in a fix supply market, as the demand for a product increases, its price also increase. as  as we all know, bitcoin has a fix number of around 21 million, and the recent price increase led many to venture into bitcoin increasing demand pushing it further upward.

Supply and deman. BTC has some inherent value by virtue of someone having to spend money for mining gear and electricity to produce it, but it's surely not anywhere close to what it goes for right now. But here's the thing...It doesn't have to have an inherent value. Not many things on the market that we trade, have an inherent value.

It always is supply and demand.
values of any currencies will drop when investors pull away their investments.
In the case of bitcoin presently, many bitcoin holders exchanged their money for something else. Thus, money flows out from BTC, and in turn, the drop in value

You already mentioned supply and demand. Currently, its value drop because investors sell their bitcoin for something else. You also need to learn micro economy like if other assets are not profitable atm then investors might choose bitcoin. Did I forget to mention about FUD?

As you already said, supply and demand determine a value.
Currently, a lot of money is flowing away from the BTC, so the price drops.
