RE: Bitcoin is officially in Bear Market Territory - What to watch for next, and Predictions! Can Bitcoin Make New HIgh?

in #ethereum7 years ago

Traders are still doubtful about SegWit2x. As soon as SegWit is locked in the price is gonna break some ceilings. And there will be no hard-forks on Bitcoin blockchain. There is too much money in to gamble on the chain-split.

Sort:  

so you are saying its a buying opportunity? I agree but no traders likes uncertainty!

It could be. But you should follow the latest developments with SegWit2x. Beta is gonna be out in a few days and Bitcoin Core developers still don't support it. As soon as there is some kind of a signal that SegWit is a GO! The price is gonna rocket instantly. But there might be even deeper dip before it happens.

I agree but there is also the downside risk if we dont' get consensus than the possibility of split increases greatly

Chance of a chain-split is less than 1%. Wouldn't really call it a risk in this market. The only possible fork could be in a 6 months with 2MB blocks. But since we don't need them right now, I doubt that it is going to happen that soon.
