Wow! When the OP created this thread 3 years ago, at that time, the btc price was only at about $9k level and look at what we have now. Even if there is correction happening, we somehow achieved again the $40k level. If he bought some btc and hold that long, his stash is now more than fourfold.
The news about amazon possibly starting to accept bitcoin as a payment and their silence to deny the news, has made people think about if it is going to be happening and made a lot of investors go into it, because i am sure if big companies start accepting other will do the same and we will see more and more of the crypto industry developing and we will see bitcoin reaching some high prices.
They are denying right now but I believe, the plans of accepting crypto maybe in the pipeline. Someone just leaked it early so they are denying it. Once they actually announce about btc acceptance, I guess, this will create positive boost in the market.
Yeah, they are denying, but it looks like people don't believe them much.
OR, maybe Martin Leo Rivers, the author of the article in Forbes called
"Bitcoin Didn’t Care About Tesla, And It Doesn’t Care About Amazon Either" is right saying that "bitcoin’s price swings are largely influenced by technical indicators–patterns and trends on charts–as opposed to fundamental events"? Of course "largely" doesn't mean "solely", and the author himself admits that significant, credible news do impact bitcoin’s short-term price, but I'm still wondering is he right about "largely"?
