Topic: Will Bitcoin reach $ 19k again before 2022? (poll inside) (Read 1074 times)

I do not see why you doubt that bitcoin could reach that price again, just during this year bitcoin reached a price very close to 14000, so bitcoin has three years in order to reach a price close to its previous all time high, to me that is a very long time, even if a bear market started right now and lasted for two years bitcoin will still have one full year to try to reach those levels again.

Unfortunately there is no way to know if our predictions are right except by letting time pass and see how the price of bitcoin evolves during the next three years.

I highly doubt it that BTC would go on such a bull run, but perhaps a small increase in price could be feasible. However, there's still quite a bit of resistance.

I believe there isn't sufficient support at the moment and there are quite a few market forces that would rush to take in profits if prices rose any higher. The levels reached not so long ago probably pose as heavy resistance given that many newcomers might have had that as their introduction to BTC and could currenty be in the red.

It's just the news that Fomo is causing many people to fantasize about these predictions. Even many famous people have predicted that the price of BTC may reach 100k USD by the end of 2019, the current result of BTC is still at 6700$. I think they sold all their BTC when the price went up to 13,000$ and made false predictions to deceive this market. It's best to never listen to bullshit predictions, self-analysis is the best way we can do in this market.

There have been many prophets who have ordered BTC in 2019 up to 50k$. But for now, BTC is on a downward trend. Do not believe in others, but in yourself

I'm not sure if the price of bitcoin can reach $ 19k in 2020 because until now I still don't find a reason that will be a push for bitcoin to reach $ 19k. I haven't seen the signs that bitcoin prices will jump high in the near future. I estimate bitcoin will again reach $ 19k in 2021-2022, and in 2024 there will be a very high jump.

for 2019 I don't think this will happen beyond $ 19000, bitcoin is still at $ 7000 now it will be difficult if there is no fresh funds coming into Bitcoin in large amounts, but for next year it is likely to happen, hope 

I have voted for yes, for that I don't think it's very necessary to provide any technical analysis. It's so simple for me, and it's my belief. Basic reason I think new investors. More investors coming on bitcoin and that's why I believe it will cross $19K. Day by day Blockchain technology expanding worldwide, so at the same time new peoples meeting with Bitcoin as well. So what I believe, if someone bother to know Bitcoin history then he would invest on bitcoin and hold for few months. That's how we can see another bull trend like before.

So many topics have already been created regarding forecasts for the price of Bitcoin in the coming years, I wonder why cryptocurrency users hope to see $ 20,000 for Bitcoin in 2022, and some want to see $ 55,000 for Bitcoin.  The forecasts are different and different from each other.  But I would not be so categorical about the numbers, because we know how the market can be unpredictable and how the cryptocurrency market is affected by various situations that arise due to different information about the cryptocurrency, as well as due to the statements of some officials.  But I am sure that we can expect anything in the next 2 years, because an example can be the past period, when no one expected such rates of growth and fall in prices in 2017 and 2018.

This has a lot to do with the psychology of the markets, there is going to be a huge resistance to reach that all time high because people are going to be very skeptical and they are going to take every opportunity to sell bitcoin for a profit but once bitcoin surpasses its all time high even if it is for a single dollar the mentality of the people in the market is going to change completely, instead of doubting bitcoin their thoughts will change to the potential profits that they can get.

And at that point the sky is the limit, a huge bubble is going to form regardless of how overvalued bitcoin becomes at that point and people will keep buying it for the fear of missing out.

Yes bitcoin can pump high anytime and we can make profit from it but we should just believe in abilities of bitcoin. As much as i know good time will come soon as long time we have been waiting for this day. So I think till end of 2020 we will notice some price changes and it will increase gradually we know crypto like bitcoin pumps suddenly but higher.

In my own opinion, there is a chance that bitcoin's price will reach $19 K before 2022 because there are still a plenty of time for bitcoin to increased it's price. But since bitcoin's price was down to almost $7,000 it is now hard to predict when will bitcoin increased it's price again up to $20 k.

Astronomy?  I  hope there is one. I would really love to read those.

2 more years. Hmm. I am thinking that is enough for bitcoin to be seen more by the public.
There are still negative influences that are lurking around and add the descending value of bitcoin, they are more likely giving up.
It should not be about that. Giving up is easy but staying in course and helping support it should be the first matter of all.

My vote is a yes even though I have not much TA to prove it. 

By year 2020 in my view, there’s a possibility to happen that bitcoin could reach 19k$ or higher. A lot of prediction spreading in bitcoin but the fact is no one knows what’s the price can be reach. Many having a high hopes that we could see bitcoin to burst the value by year 2020 onwards.

2021 is the prediction of many experts who say Bitcoin will again go to the moon.. like the thread that you created, it's all based on theory and real facts.  believe me, Bitcoin will again make a scene before 2022 

2022 is still away and anything can happen in crypto sphere.. Also Bitcoin halving is near and if we go with the past then there used to be large pumps near this time. We may see $25k+ in 2020 and go beyond later.

No, I think bitcoin will struggle to rise in price over the next two years, This is because many investors would prefer to secure a profit especially nowadays it is difficult to see the natural price rise of bitcoin because many big investor or so called whales are manipulated the price of bitcoin.

I will not be looking for a higher price of bitcoin once it reaches 15,000 $ and I will definitely sell it quickly.

Everyone is focused on this cycle and expecting the market to move up the same way we saw in the past, the market situations are different this time around but i still hope we will see a huge rally by 2021 end or early 2022, the least we will touch the all time high valuation and that is the least expectation i have in the market and it is a realistic price valuation after halving.

It will be a good indicator from the past but actually it's really hard to predict on what will happen future maybe it's best to wait and if you believe that something good will happen then start to stor up some bits and earn with it later on since as speculation given we will have a great season coming next year.

I will based from halving that would happened in mid-year 2020. So, in mid year 2020 probably between May to August or may before or after that months halving would happened. Halving was designed by one and only Satoshi for bitcoin to cope up its price. So, in recent two halving happened in the past, it never failed to make bitcoin price go abnomarly, particularly positive. It happens a year after the halving, so, if halving would happened in 2020 probably in 2021 or 2022 price would go violently changed.

Then you should have voted YES instead of NO, you didn't even read the OP properly 

That's why I usually start self moderated thread... but thanks anyway for your opinion I guess  I thought we had a first post here (in addition of mine) providing more bearish views but I was wrong 
Tomorrow I will update this thread with the last prediction of Team CCU (one of my favorite Youtube channel when it comes to crypto trading). I think he still sees a very bearish market for first half of 2020. I still believe 2020 will be a poor year when it comes to BTC and the price will be more stable around 6k-8k for most of the year.

I chose 'no'. Why? It is because 2022 is way to far for that price.
All this while, I believe the market have be modifying and normalising, so we should start expecting some good price from next year. If a healthy price increase begins on 2020, 19k should be achieved at the ending of the year or the beginning of 2021.
The price prediction is based on my insight though, price prediction is not my thing though.  What happened this year should tell us more that anything can happen in digital currency.

Nothing is certain when we do talk about speculative prices or in future.We might have that bullish feeling or sentiments but those stuffs arent guaranteed ones.
Checking up the poll which do have "Yes" on leading does signify that majority do believe for this breaking ATH would happen. 2022? A considerable date comparing to
 those speculations where prices reaching up on 6 digits on a short span of time which is totally bullsh%t if you do ask me.For now if you are impatient enough
then better to trade it actively.

Look bitcoins have reached that value earlier and I believe gaining back a certain peak is much more possible than setting a new peak. I mean if you had asked me if BTC would reach 30k by 2022 I might have said NO because there is nothing I could back up by answer with. Now since you have asked 19k -20k then yes I believe it can and will be achieved at some time before 2022 because it has reached that value earlier and should not be a surprise at all for anyone who has been intro cryptocurrency for at least 1 year.

I understand the panic that's coming from people because most of the investors are new to bitcoin and they are rightly worried when price goes down but we as old members must understand the trend that it is normal for BTC to rise and fall.

I find it very difficult to predict future bitcoin prices, but still there's a high probability that bitcoin surpass it's ATH again, especially, in Long-term. to reach a new ATH Bitcoin just needs to grow 3 times current price and it's not very difficult. what I am sure about, is that bitcoin as a store of value, will continue to attract new investors and capital in 2020-2021. This means that in the long run, bitcoin will grow several orders of magnitude over the 2017 ATH. Even many financial experts are bullish when it comes to this long term. they speak of price predictions in the range between $100,000 and $1 million within the next couple of decades.

I too believe bitcoin will see $19k but not because of reasons people think we will, I just think there is a cycle of bitcoin that has
happened twice in a row now and it takes YEARS for it to happen so I feel like it couldn't be a surprise, like if it is unintended it would have been a bit random or it would have been on short periods, but we are talking about close to 7 years of bitcoins life out of 10 total years it has repeated itself, so I feel like maybe it may repeat once again.

In 2013 it was a regular coin that went up but went down, in 2014 and 2017 it went up super high, so the 2019 was a bit high but then down, same 2014 and 2017 could happen in 2020 as well, I am not sure if it will but I feel like it may and that is why I feel like 2020 would be an easily $19k and even more year.

It's still a long way before 2022, and yes bitcoin has positively high percentage to reach $19K again, even if we talk bitcoin to reach $19K in 2020, it more likely to happen.
The cycle of bitcoin always repeated, one year after halving bitcoin will reach new ATH, so I assume bitcoin will surpass the last ATH in 2021.

astronomy ?
did u believe that will affect on bitcoin price ? LMAO 
btw , i vote yes , why ?
somehow i just believe BTC can reach that price before 2022
u know halving 2020 , also bakkt , and many many good thing will happen on 2020 i guess.
and also i heard many many speculators say 2020 is a good start for crypto.
and i guess after end of 2020 , 2021 still give a good opportunity.

yes he said before 2022 that meant 2021 the price of bitcoin might touch ATH 2017. agreed, actually, we were worried when the rapid rise in bitcoin was then a big dump. I prefer to be stable but the rate is at $20k because supply is reduced, so of course, demand must continue to increase, and maybe about future mass adoption can make it even more.

I am very optimistic that in two years bitcoin can reach a price of $ 19,000. because if we look at the bitcoin price chart. bitcoin always increases one year after bitcoin is reduced by half. if later in 2020 bitcoin is reduced by half then bitcoin will go to the moon in 2021. I am optimistic that the price of bitcoin will increase after halving because if demand continues to increase and supply decreases this will make the price of bitcoin increase. and hopefully next year bitcoin will enter the bull market.

   Halving is one of the factors that can affect the price in upcoming years. Adoption is another huge factor, that can
affect the price in long-term. The halving is coming, that is something we can't speculate about, it's a code. Adoption
can be discussed, but I believe that we are in a good direction. Slowly but steady, we see more people and companies
interested in Bitcoin.

It might shock you, but reaching $20,000 from where we are today is harder than reaching $60,000 the moment we break $20,000.

Currently there are so many resistance levels below the all time high that we have to chew through, that it will likely take longer than people expect to break it. Whenever we finally break $20,000 I honestly don't have a clue where we will peak out. It could just as easily peak out somewhere above the $100,000 level, and that would still be a relatively weak bull run.

Markets in general, whenever they break their all time high, they tend to keep increasing for years non-stop. Every dip you are presented will be a blessing to buy into, similar to what we saw happen in 2017 with Bitcoin. These are the dips to buy, not the ones when the trend is about to reverse.  

19k$ is not something to wait for until 2022 , I am sure we will see more than that after the halving
if nothing bad happens 20.000$ should be the realistic price come 2020-2021
probably not the six figures many expecting or equally unrealistic 50-60k , but 200% increase is nothing impossible for bitcoin
but I won't be too surprised if it doesn't make it too, bitcoin price is unpredictable and there are too many things that influence it
and again I would prefer a 10.000$ price in 2022 and a solid growth from there than a temporary spike to 20.000 and years of decline like we saw in 2017

This is a bitcoin forum so I find it natural that not many people are going to be happy with those that are predicting a bearish market for bitcoin, if this was a forum dedicated to gold and someone expressed negative views about its future I suppose the same will happen, however I do not really have any problems with people that believe that the market could go down during the next years as long as they give their opinion in a respectful way.

What really bothers some of the members of the forum are those that begin to troll the forum and begin to say things like bitcoin is useless or stuff like that because that is simply not true.

From the result of your pool many are if the believe that Bitcoin market value will move higher than $19,000 before the year 2022. And I strongly believe that they believe so because of the halving come next year which in history has been the price push event.

Quite amazing, 26% so far have voted NO, this is more than 1 out of 4 voters, yet no one (except me I think) dares to post their opinion about a bearish market during the next two years. This is quite symptomatic of this forum where bearish views are not so welcome, even though the majority is bullish, you would think 90% at least of the voters would vote Yes, but this is quite far from being the case at the moment.

Reminder: there are two strong prices to follow: 6.4k and 10k-ish. These two prices will dictate what happens in the next two years, go above 10k-11k and it will be a big run, go below 6.4k and the move will be devastating.

I voted for the yes option, to me there are simply too many signals that point towards that scenario, during this year we saw a recovery that almost touched 14000 so we came close to touch those levels without anything really going on in the market, but during the next year we're going to get the halving which as we know is a bullish indicator for bitcoin and while it is unlikely the price will go up really quickly we have until the end of 2022 for those effects to be felt.

Another factor is that you gave it a lot of time, if you were to ask if bitcoin will reach its previous ATH at the end of this year then my answer to that will be a no, but since you gave bitcoin so much time then to me it is almost a certainty that we will touch that price again.

I don't think after the halving the price would go bullish, i have a doubt about that. If you have to look at the history of halving in bitcoin you will see that halving effect will not trigger a bullish trend for in a short time frame. Most halving effect after a year of halving. So basically we will have to wait for almost two years before we could even see the bull market.

Yes I believe that it will hit $20,000 next year after the halving in May. It may be a few months after the halving but based on the price increase after the last 2 halvings, that’s what I expect.

for sure bitcoin can reach another new ath before some months . prices now strong more than past months and bitcoin just complete lot of correction ; so bitcoin is ready for another rise or another grow
let say bitcoin can reach new ath before 2021

Yeah right since it's outrageous to predict on something that is far to be happen since apparently we will encounter many struggles the same on what happen on year 2018 and for sure many people though that the pump will continuously happen since many people predicted good on it so maybe for now it's best for us to feel the market rhythm in year 2021 and predict later once the halving will go thru but for now for me I will focus earning on volatile market these days.



Everything is possible if the movement is on the right track but for sure there are sketchy ways to surpass that's why it's hard to predict if we will go to that price after 2022.

Thats how much the block reward is changing every time, its a diminishing effect and is not the reason why we'll get 19k.    6 BTC will add up as its a block reward every 10 minutes but its going to be twice as long as happened in 2016 for it to have the same effect that we presume resulted in positivity towards 2017 highs of 19k.
   My take on change is it can lead to pressure but its not always the direction or result we expect, it can mean transaction costs rise not the value of BTC.   Either way if it was a lag of say 18 months previously then 36 months to effect similarly on this change would be reasonable perhaps.   We are maybe talking mid 2023 for the next high, I would at least consider that scenario.

If the market will continue to behaves the same way as it be, the possibilities that this event will take place. After the halving there's an expected spikes to the current value of bitcoin, speculations will flow and many new investors will bring more money inside the market. The chance of reaching another peak will happen and since OP is looking forward before 2022 that certain value might be possible to achieved after the halving.

If there is a rally in bitcoin after halving then i should foresee that the price of bitcoin crossing another all time high valuation by 2021 and since you are asking about the price valuation in 2022 we might even see a correction by that time after touching the all time high valuation and these are just my expectations and i hope the market will move higher by 2021.

When it comes to Bitcoin 2022 is a distant future. You definetely know how fast and how many times situation can change on a Bitcoin market and it's really hard to predict what will happen with price.
I know that 19000$ many see as a magic number they would like to see again and it's possible for price to reach that value but then fall back again as well.

I think the 19,000 $ price of bitcoin might be out of reach. As of now investors are more focused on earning and I am sure once bitcoin has reached 15,000 $ price here we will see more volatile price and here we will see investors' skepticism if continued whether they hold or not.

yeah that is more better to do than predicting . when we touch that year ( 2022 ) that would be the time to talk if what do we think about btc now . did it gain or loose  ? or it stays the same   .

let say that after halving the price of btc will increase but will that increase be enought to reach 19k usd ?  what if the price will go down again after some time  ? you know people will always sell after knowing that btc value increase a little    .

Most traders and holders believe that Bitcoin will return in the future. I don't think it is necessary to wait until 2022 for bitcoin to return to the $ 19k price. Perhaps by the end of 2020 or early 2021 Bitcoin will have a strong rise and will most likely surpass $ 20k

YES! I choose it because in 3 years time there's a lot of positive news that will happen that time.
it's only $19K which is very achievable even in less than a year, remember that bitcoin pump up to $13k this year but it did not continue the uptrend, however for 3 years time, I think its already enough to get rid of the weak hands and as people started to loss hope, that's where the whales starts to make the price pump and hopefully that time we will be able to see some real adoption, slowly but surely.

Maybe it's best to wait for the result to came after the halving next year since if bitcoins price would grow up for that scenario then we can conclude that we will provably reach to that price( $19k) by 2022 but for now maybe it's best to follow the market leads to earn on the current flow since waiting to much cost more bucks since for sure we will lose more profit if we didn't look to gain on the current market volatility and seems this is the best time to gain some percentage since the market is pretty much quite cool to do a short trades.

What I hope is that halving would really give a positive energy to the market to it will have a positive effect.

Whether there is a new ATH or not but for btc to recover, that's a good news already as that would result to a better market which is stable in the eyes of investors.

Its the investors that are making this market pump, I mean those small investors but they are big in volume because when we rely on the whales, they will just play a pump and dump game where they can cash out their profit in just a short period of time, a small market movement as long as in their favor, they can already make money on that, but we need adoption real adoption as that would drive to a better and stable price.

I think all time high will be broken right after the halving. Right now we are putting all our chips into bear and manipulators are trying their hardest to keep the price low yet the reality is clear, bitcoin will be harder to mine and will cost double the cost, so there is technically speaking NO possible way for bitcoin to worth less when it will cost more.

Hence, the price will go up but of course manipulators will try their best to hide that and will want to keep the price low for a long time so they could get as cheap as possible before it skyrockets again. After the halving the price should be going high not because manipulators only but miners will stop selling for cheap and make a loss, they will stop selling which will end up with bitcoin going up.

2022 will be almost 3 years after halving, it is a long way for recovery to break ATH. I dont think anyone want this, it poses a tough sentiment for traders and new investors, people might seek profit else where, the recovery is necessary early to see a build up for next bullrun. If bitcoin could give this size return this year we can see more as halving approaches but definitely not to break the ATH.

We really need a lot of patience waiting for 2022 but I think $19k won't need to wait for two more years since after the halving it will take a year or more to actually see the halving in effect. So 2021 is the year that we are waiting for the real bullish market although I am not that sure on when it would happen but I am certain that in 2021 the Bitcoin will start to skyrocket to the moon.

Btw, I voted yes.

Bitcoin growth is concerned of various factors. If one isn't supportive, the next one too won't act on the same way. In this manner we've got more things to be fulfilled to reach certain value. The same has been taking place little by little, it can be the adoption, acceptance, usage and follows. Considered, and it is assured for a $19k+ by 2022.

Voted for yes. I have nothing hard to base this on, other than the fact that the people using, or simply buying and hodling for speculation bitcoin increase by the day. The bear market has lasted for quite a while, so I think sometime next year we will see an ATH. And the halving is near so I guess the whales might spend some moneyz to create some FOMO and become even richer

 Of course I may well be wrong and BTC drops like a brick 



LOL

yes, bitcoin worth to be 19k before 2020. look the history bitcoin reach amazing price every four years, in the 2013 bitcoin reach $1000 and 2017 reach about 19k, there is a possibility to reach 19k in 2021.. but remember this not certainly, its just my prediction about to be reality or not? just wait and see no body know 

I vote for yes because if we see on the chart so far, the chart shows that the price is trying to move up and although we are still at $7267 according to the price now, it can increase higher in the next year. I only think about if the price is not moving at the higher rate before or after halving time, then maybe we need to wait for a very long time and there will be an unknown time to see when the price will increase. We are already waiting for almost 2 years to see bitcoin price will grow, but unfortunately, we still at less than $10k now.

So if we check on the chart at 2012 when the second halving happens, the price rises so high, from $100-$300 to $1000 or more in 2014 but then the price was back to lower than $1000. Then we start to see another highest price in 2017-2018 after the halving comes in 2016 and that reached for almost $20k in that year. So we are going to see the third time of halving in the next year, and if the price is down for lower than $6k, then that will be the best time to buy bitcoin. We might see another highest price again in 2021 or 2022, but I am not sure when it will happen.

But if the price really increases higher, I think the price will reach more than $19k because we already concluded that price in 2017-2018. But I don't know if that will comes true or not as I don't know much about analysis and I only see for what I see at the market.

Its expected that there would be people who doesnt have that bullish thing in mind when it comes to those years. 3 years from now and reaching that 19k price is really plausible.

We cant really just deny that to those people who choose no in the poll does have their own perception towards price either composed of perma bears or just simply dont trust on where the price is going. 

I answered Yes, and I am very optimistic and believe that predictions or statements by famous people and experts about bitcoin predictions in 2020 will reach the highest price again with different predictions and nominal according to their predictions.
and it seems that the increase in bitcoin will move gradually towards the turn of the year.

I voted yes for bitcoin to reach $19K come 2022 there is no element of doubt in my prediction and I based my speculation on the tremendous progress and growth of the price of bitcoin in the previous years for instance the price of bitcoin went as low as $3300 in the early part of this year and recovered to pumped to $13300+ while the price correction, retracement or pullback  couldn't get below $6500+ this is indeed a massive progress thus Iam expecting steady price increment in years ahead some of the catalyst that would triggers the price is the halving of it, bakkt approval etc.

Interesting results so far, YES is leading 77.8% but was expecting more about 90%.

Still a big lead which comes as no surprise on a very bullish forum (not being judgmental even though as a trader I am only interested in trends, down or up is the same for me).

Still 29 days to go until the poll is closed. Keep it up!



edit: 80% / 20% right now.

Is it even a sure thing? I don't think so .

You can always compare it to the way bitcoin jump in 2017 ... 1 year after the bitcoin halving occurred in 2016. That is the only proof that common people find to support their own predictions, so weak.
I would like to see bitcoin price rising more than what you can imagined if only there is a major step up in a mass adoption, one big company that even indirectly promotes cryptocurrency usage to the wide community globally.

Facebook digital currency for instance.

I would expect bitcoin price would follow to jump up with this Facebook digital currency (libra) legalized sentiment.
For instance. Once again for instance

But also I won't ignore the fact that in this free market you could achieve 10,000% gain and also could get 98% loss within few days only.
There's always chance opened for bitcoin itself to go plunged to as low as $1,000 even lower due  instead continue rising in the coming years. I'll just make sure that I'm fully aware about this.

I'm bitcoin believer too but I don't want to be obsessed too much.

New ATH or close to that based on what? 10 years of BTC history clearly shows us that big pumps come about a year or a year and a half after halving. Pre-halvings effect is never something that can inflate the price, so I doubt that price can go so high as $20k before May 2020.


I don't think you can call it an anomaly if something happens a few times at regular intervals, then there is a very real chance of it happening again. I think you are focusing too much on 2017 and not looking at the overall picture, and that you do not consider possible positive events that may occur in the next 2 years. The SEC could approve the first ETF during this period, and this is something that would cause a huge price increase.

Even if that doesn't happen, it's not realistic to expect that the price of BTC will stay under $20k in the next 2 years.

Honestly I am very careful with that. I find it strange to see so many people goddamn certain BTC will be above 19k before year 2022, I don't think it works like that. It's not a sure thing.
Bear market is very clear since July, could last several years before the bounce back in 2023-2024?  

Remember that it is a long term game, maybe 2017 was an anomaly.



On another thread I saw you predict that the 6.4k resistance would hold.
I offered you a possibility to place a bet with me, if BTC go below 6k before May 31 next year, I win, otherwise you win. Would you accept it?
For example 0.05 BTC at stake. You can trust me



Fair point, but it has to be seen if Technical Analysis really cares about it. What bothers me with Bitcoin is that it is almost 100% technical and almost 0% fundamentals lately!!

But fair point indeed.

We will see!

you are asking for another more than 2 years more?does is sounds serious?

we have been into $19k in 2017 after the Bitcoin halving happens,and now we are coming to the same scenario again so what do we need to expect?

of course my answer is YES and no doubt about that,and i am very positive that in 2020-2021 we will achieved this Goal so there is no need to wait for another year then.

that's why I gave my link to give an explanation of my reasons, but if it happens Dump maybe it will only happen at the end of this year not early next year approaching halving, I don't want many people to believe me, but if what I say happens, i'm happy to get merit from anyone, lol 

Yes no doubt! Or we could expect much more but 19k sounds realistic in the near future. Its funny that some people predict prices without support for their predictions, for the meantime its better to stick in realistic future value than what we used to dream.

I am voting for a big YES all because I am a strong believer and holder of Bitcoin and though I have to admit that there are times when I am also disappointed and got the urge to once-and-for-all give up on this digital asset, and yet I am still here waiting for the day when BTC can be trading beyond the $20K mark. Others might be arguing that this can't be possible especially in the light of recent developments, but I am sure that Bitcoin is still hiding some amazing tricks on its sleeves. Despite the bad influence on China and the continuing lack of adoption by the masses, Bitcoin has a strong potential for further growth. Let's hope that I am not wrong on this conviction.

That true, its far more profitable to trade a range and just question where are the boundaries likely in that range.   Then you have set yourself a target to sell at but also buy in the gloom, get a regular trade between those two points and its more profitable then holding alone but its harder to do then say as the range will vary.
   A big variation I see likely is the Dollar value itself is not a constant, we also have its effect as a global reserve currency.  That current usage means Dollar is used beyond its normal part as a national currency, its part of world politics.  So how can we judge the whole world and its future use of dollar vs alternatives, it becomes more complex and yes I do think this is part of why BTC goes up or not as it too is a global currency.   To compare BTC to Dollar world usage makes far more sense then the often gold comparison made because dollar is digital and very fast where as most gold I see is far slower in exchange.

So I voted no, mostly because Im a pessimist and thats something I have to account for but also on more reasoned grounds that as yet I do not see the groundwork in place so that we get this future 19k or higher.   Its beyond the horizon so how can I tell you the prospect of this target, presently I expect 10k in the next year as top to a range.   When we have the solid uptrend then its more reasonable to estimate 19k, till then I agree we are in a range and I dont think 19k is part of that box yet its alot lower.  Until then we cover ground, hopefully gain more people to build a ladder and bridge over obstacles to greater gains.

as usual, most people are expecting either "moon" or "doom", and they expect it to happen soon. the truth is that markets roughly follow the pareto principle. the vast majority of the time, they are range-bound and whipsawing, despite everyone's constant expectations that the market will skyrocket or crash tomorrow.


maybe we're in for a long term sideways like 2015.

If Bitcoin price will not reach $19k for even a moment in the next 2 years, then something will be extremely wrong. Biggest chance is that we have huge economic recession next year. Then that there will be found some bug in protocol.

I don't have any of that, just my opinion and the time frame of 2 years.

The bull market slowed down a lot, but I don't think that means we aren't going to see another bull run and especially given 2 years.  A lot can happen in that amount of time, and if bitcoin's history is any guide as to what it's going to do in the future, there's probably going to be another period of cryptoeuphoria...and if that occurs I have no doubt bitcoin will be back at it's all time high and likely even higher.  Can't wait.

Yes, there's the halving and I'm not sure that any gains haven't already been priced in but we'll see.  Bitcoin did pretty well after the last 2 halvings.  Don't know about the 'user count increases' but there probably is a growing user base, tho there's no way of quantifying that (or at least it hasn't been quantified yet).

There are so many more developments in BTC, there is an upcoming halving, user count increases, things like the German bank issue will start happening more and more which provides a way to BTC for numerous more newbs.... many of those will buy just because there stupid bank provides it and they trust their bank  But just so many new things to enter BTC-world.

So yes I think we will go higher way faster as 2022.... but again nothing is written in stone 

i think bitcoin price before 2022 will be above 20k because i saw many famous people that saying like that so i hope it will happen later

I speculate that the price could reach that, or even more. IMO, if the price of bitcoin will rise after halving, then 2021 is a year that is highly focused on achieving high prices and even has the same potential as 2017. If by 2021 the price of bitcoin is still rising, I even think that the price will reach more than $ 20k. but, I don't know that the price of bitcoin can last until 2022 or not but, I believe 2021 will bring another big change.

2022?!!! try first quarter of 2020 that would be an interesting question otherwise by 2022 you would look at $19k price the same way you are looking at $220 today. it would be just another tiny price that we shot past years ago that nobody even remembers...

so my answer is yes. and to expand, i believe by first quarter of 2020 (next year) we are going to see the rise happen and previous ATH to either be broken or be so close.

I'm gonna entirely base my vote on past transactions before, during and after halvings. Just by basing it on that, we could already see that BTC dips at the start and middle of the halving and only after a year would it actually show potential results of a pump. That would result in a possible ATH in 2022, instead of 2021. 2021 would be the transition period I'd suppose of traders and miners alike from the halving in May 2020 and would only start moving BTC up by at the  least, end of 2020. Of course, it's totally plausible for BTC to spike up after halving, but im more inclined to following past examples.

I vote YES, and I think most will choose that answer because it is quite realistic that in 2+ years the price will rise even more than last ATH ($20k). My reason for this is pretty simple, and lies in the fact that next year is halving, after which a big pump usually happens. I also think that we can expect a lot of positive changes in the next two years that will further strengthen BTC and increase investor interest.

All this, of course, should be taken with a dose of caution, because history does not have to repeat itself, and things can go in a completely different direction. However, if Bitcoin continues to follow its usual pattern, the price increase can be between 5-10 times from the current price, which puts us in the range from $35k to $75k. For those who think it's impossible, just look at 2017, the price has increased as much as 20 times in just one year.

Of course, this is not an investment tip, just my personal opinion.

Everyone who invest in bitcoin is optimistic that the market would rally after the halving and so is the reason people still stick to the market even when the market went down considerably for a couple of years after touching an all time high valuation, if people did loose their trust in the market we would have seen further bleeding but now the market is fine and everyone is waiting for the next boom.

So far, 4 - 0 in favor for "yes"
this is how optimistic the people here, we've reach that price already, its impossible we will not reach that again.
its in 2022 and that is like 3 years from now, while the last ATH was just achieved in months due to the bull run.

There will be another bull run that will come and I am very optimistic it will happen within 3 years. s

In crypto platform stable coins is stay a same level so other coins are obviously growing well on further years. But Bitcoin is a volatile crypto currency we can't predict the future uptrend on BTC, because it will grow gradually on future and sudden dump is crash the Bitcoin trust so continuous dump also occur at anytime. I hope it will cross the 19k USD on future days.

Why fantastic? BTC did +40% in one single day few weeks ago, so being currently at +100% above the bottom of the year is not fantastic at all, it's just a normal thing for a highly volatile asset. Are you some kind of permabull btw?

why not, because I have done the calculation and predicted the new ATH bitcoin in 2021, I only give votes to YES, if you want to see an analysis that makes me believe before 2022 bitcoin will be worth 19k again even more, you can visit my thread here

Hi brother, thanks for the reply.

I am afraid any talk about the bet is not allowed here, it's a personal affair between the user and myself, this thread is not about that, please post on the Wall Observer thread, I would appreciate it

About the spamming, you are unfortunately very right about it, I didn't encourage spamming but unfortunately it's impossible to fight it on this forum, it is a lost cause.

But ever heard of positive thinking?  I am confident this thread will feature constructive posts. What is your personal opinion about the trend in the next 2 years?

I saw you post on the WO thread, you seemed surprised that Bitcoin went down again yesterday, I hope you didn't buy because buying near a resistance is very risky, and yesterday there was a clear resistance around 7.8k 

Next step is probably 6.5k but a bounce back to 9k is expected within two or three months. However I am myself more interested in the long term trend, I mean until January 2022, will the market be bearish for two more years?

2019 was actually very exciting! Imagine buying at 3.5k in January? 2019 was actually a fantastic year, maybe the last fantastic year until.... 2024?

Time will tell 

What is your bet with LFC? You didn't provide any link... 
BTW you can't encourage people to spam. Spamming is against the rules.

Very interesting. Thanks for the constructive reply.

Not that I agree with this prediction, but I like it because first semester will indicate very clear signs that your prediction could be right or could be wrong. Should Bitcoin go below 6k in May next year, it will unfortunately go against the quoted wave, and therefore make the chart completely invalid.
Time will tell.

Exciting times ahead 

Although this count will need to be revised to account for the dip into the $6Ks, I'm still of the opinion that we are in (or have completed) a Wave 2 correction, with much more upside to come. I don't think we'll need to wait until 2022......more like next year.

Hi folks,

Simple poll here, but not that straightforward to answer (or is it)?

Common thinking seems to believe 19k will be very easy to reach in the next two years. I don't want to influence the votes here, but please remember that the crowd can be wrong very often  

Votes are open for 30 days only (for obvious reasons).

I am not making this thread self-moderated so trolling is allowed, people committed to signature campaigns are welcome to post nonsense even though constructive opinions are much preferred.

Simple: please vote YES or NO, and explain your vote.

The use of TA (technical analysis), trading charts will be very appreciated!! Conspiracy theories, spiritual concepts, astronomy, etc. also accepted.

Cheers!!
