BTC prices are going high and gives hope that this might really be the way to become wealthy. I think buying , holding and selling will be agood way to make profit.
The hihg demand of the bitcoin is due to the thigh rate of the interest of the new investor in bitcoin. As the new people come to know about the bitcoin high value and its high rising rate in the value of it, they become fan of it and want to make some invest and generate some income for their self. While the stoke of the bitcoin is limited. So the demand of the bitcoin is high due to the new investor of the bitcoin.
There are two part of the demand, first part is us retail traders, investors and second and more effective part is those big whales who can effect the price. Why there is demand? For retail traders the reason is price increase and for whales is the laundering money in simple words.
