Topic: With or without approval of btc/ETFs ,we are positive of bull run. (Read 276 times)
There is still the possibility of a bull market, but it will certainly take time. As a speculator, you must have confidence in the market.

I still think good news regarding CBOE will come out, and it will continue the bull market.

we had something very similar to this last year too. there was a period of time where ETF was getting hyped up a lot (it was Winkle bros ETF!) and we even had a rise and everyone was basically making the same prediction that with ETF= moon and without ETF= dump back to $900.
and you know what happened! SEC rejected their ETF and we saw a small drop then a couple of days later as the drama vanished we started seeing the rise begin again!

gotta remember though, the market was in a very, very different place at that time. look at what happened to altcoins when the ETF was rejected: they had a bubble. they rose astronomically against BTC for the next few months. then in august, BTC had its bubble. that shows that the market was in a state of hype and very strong demand throughout 2017, regardless of the ETF rejection.
but now? the bubbles ended and we're seeing the fallout. altcoins are fucking bearish. there's no way to assume any rise from here is anything more than a bounce in a bear market.
what i'm saying is this: bad news in a bull market means nothing. bad news in a bear market can be a great excuse for a sustained selloff, though.

I think it has been doing just fine, it did not drop much. If CBOE ETFs are approved, then it is the moon baby!

The price of bitcoin is showing great resilience even after the recent decline of ETFs by the SEC decision. We must not be moved at all by these few odds.The market will surely pick up greatly again.Staying postitve is the key.In history,there have never been any commodity that it's price never declined. So it is also normal for price of btc to fall and rise.This is a normal market situation and every seasoned trader understands this principle.
I don't think so, because as i've realized from this outcomes they might be planned it already that they will make this long bear and to reverse the trend in upcoming ETF which is a major factor that is known for bitcoin's momentum and creates a positive impact once it approach and much more if it approved and a negative side effect when it was been rejected. With ETF the market has shown its interest on it that pumps up the price along with following good speculations. August 02, 2018, 02:29:52 AM
I bet Direxion will win the first approval. They're not just some standard investment trust that funnels money into the coin and pockets a healthy commission for themselves. The Direxion ones are good for short term momentum bets. 2X bull/bear will get you double the returns on a movement in either direction. That's the kind of thing that retail investors are looking for without having to worry about wallets, keys, blockchain, and all those worrying things that come with bitcoin. And then Buffet can short it all he wants without having to open up a wallet.

People got too excited, they were too reluctant to face the fact that its the SEC that has to finalize the decision and everyone was hoping for the ETF to get approved. Honestly, I am very much happy that it did not get approved. An ETF is so not the way to look at bitcoin. Sure bitcoin will be more recognized, but if people can't see the real use and reason behind bitcoin's existence, they shouldn't be into it. I expected a bull run to start from September, but now that people are upset that ETF got rejected, the bull run is a little more far away, but its coming.

Not really, ETF FUD was what made this small bull run possible in the first place, obviously right now bulls are strong, even after this small downtrend, in my opinion needed for the bulls to be able to push the price even higher but most of this was only thanks to ETF's

the other one which is the most hyped is from SolidX and SEC has not done anything about it yet.
there's really no indication that any of the applicants can overcome the SEC's objections to the winklevoss application. their objections were really expansive and had much to do with the structure and liquidity of the underlying commodity market. planning on solidx getting rubber stamped is a bad bet.
In fact it's probably the exact opposite, with or without ETF being approved, bitcoin is more likely to see some more corrections, consolidation and sideways movement before finally starting its true recovery.
this. maybe the ultimate lows are in (i kinda doubt it), but this sentiment really reminds me of the post-bubble desperation of 2014.

The rising and falling of price of bitcoin is a normal thing that happened in every illiquid assets and that is what we are seeing happening in this market. Bitcoin is going to recover no doubt and EFT approvals is going to come one day. I didn't think it can pull down the market in high ways if it is not approve.

There might be a short period bearish period because they're going to probably shake BTC from last weak hands before a major bull run from the positive news about BTC ETF or in general ETFs. Remember that like 5 ETFs are waiting for SEC decision.

Honestly I don't mind that rejection since there are lots already in the past and some upcoming. Although no doubt that we may look at the approval will result in a much more big push, still there are lots of reasons to believed that much anticipated bull run will come "soon".
People don't just need to be rush. Trust the process and let bitcoin grow on it's own as usual since it's inception.
I understand that others want to feel again the thrill and excitement they felt last year but just sit back and relax. If ever that won't happened this year, chances of happening it again is always be there.

ETF hype returns every year. It will happen eventually.

Bitcoin doesn't need an ETF to succeed. We don't need government to back bitcoin, all we need is the people!.
I agree, but the funny thing is that the people are the ones badly hoping for an ETF to come through, all to see the price moon as quick as possible. We have to accept that we're dealing with far too many speculators rather than people actually being interested in Bitcoin's utility. Maybe that at some point when the price is far more stable than it is right now that people will use Bitcoin more as a currency, but I'm not too hopeful of that. The people entering this space in recent times are far more noobie than the previous entrants, and this has been going on for years, no wonder that altcoins are ridiculously overpriced....

We "were" on a positive bull run, obviously it went down in the last 24 hours and we are once again looking at the wrong end of the barrel. Unfortunately any topic you start on speculation actually gets really old even in a day. I have no idea what happened to drop in price and I really can't see any bad news or any bad chart reading neither, we are just looking at bitcoin that keeps going down for absolutely no reason at all.
I think we need to try to figure out who sold and why and what could be the reason for selling, we need to really kill these futures that allows people bet on bitcoin going down, people see going down as easier and bet on shorts and try their most to reach there which in return kills all of us.

Staying positive is actually not a Key. Sometimes people are always in a positive attitude that they interchange it with false hope which is a bad thing as they are losing money in the process. If you are a trader you must adapt and is flexible to change via back up plans. Yes it will go up in the future but this price corrections are a missed opportunity if you just chose to hodl. If you have the guts to short you will have more Bitcoins by now at your posession.

I agree that we have survived even without ETF's in the past, I still remember last year when the twins first BTF ETF application was rejected, the price fell dramatically, but within short amount of time, bitcoin has recovered when 4 then 5 digits and almost hit $20000 at the end of 2017. However, I wouldn't agree that we will have a bull run. To go to a bull run, we need fresh blood to pump the market. They are all afraid because of this bearish sentiments hovering above us since the beginning of the year. But bitcoin can get past this ETF mania, might be seeing some short term effect on the price, but we are still good at around 5 digits at the end of the year.
August 01, 2018, 07:27:41 AM
I think bitcoin will go way up more after ETF but it should go up also before of ETF, i think after summer will go up.
