Hey crypto guys

Do you know how much you can earn in a day with Bitcoin?
The simple answer: $100 daily, and up to $1,000 in 3 days.
 
But is it all that simple?
Before you delve into the world of crypto trade and investments, you need to consider some things.

There’s no limit on how much you can profit in a day, as long as you’re dedicating time and effort to analyze the market and
make informed decisions. More often, earning daily profits with Bitcoin comes from day trading rather than investing for the long term.

Day trading, also known as short trading, involves doing multiple trades in a day to take advantage of price increases.
You may only get a small income from these trades, but if you do more than one trade in a day, you can earn as much as USD$100 daily.
And you can make up to $1,000 in just 3 days of day trading, granted that you make smart decisions.
 
How can you make a profit through day trading of Bitcoins?

Due to Bitcoin’s high volatility, many crypto traders turn to day trading. They follow the movement of the crypto markets on a micro
and daily basis to see which coins are performing well. Afterwards, they trade BTC so that the coins can gain a minimal profit.
Doing this several times in a day can give you more or less USD$100.

A specific type of day-trading technique called ‘scalping’ focuses on picking up pennies in front of a steamroller.
By collecting the profit from small price changes, you can collect a substantial amount of profit. Day traders usually make dozens
or up to hundreds of trades in one day.

To begin day trading, you need to have Bitcoin in an exchange site, such as Bitrex, Binance or Coinbase, where you place your
buy and sell orders. To check the prices and performances of all coins in the last 24 hours, use the Coin Market Cap site for reference,
and Tradingview to see the charts from different perspectives.

By checking if a coin is overbought, we can assume that it will eventually increase in price due to the high demand in supply.
This would be the perfect time to trade BTC to your chosen altcoin. Once the charts say it’s oversold, that’s when you’d want to sell
your altcoin or trade it back to BTC. Overselling of a coin will eventually result in a downward trend.

With this technique, you can earn up to USD$100 in just one trade. If you do it more than once in a day, there’s pretty much no limit
as to how much you can rack up. However, do take note this isn’t a sure way to gain money since the market performs differently every day.

How can you earn money through long-term Bitcoin investment or HODL-ing?

Investing in Bitcoin for the long term means holding on to your coin until its price appreciates. In the crypto community, this method
is more known as HODL, which means ‘hold on [to your coins] for dear life’. It’s a common practice in investing that does not take into
account the market’s day to day performance. It looks at the bigger picture and yields bigger payouts over time.

The main principle in HODL-ing is to buy coins when their price is low and sell them when the price skyrockets. It may take a few months
or years, but if the coin’s price rises to a thousand dollars, you’re sure to make a huge profit.

Reaping Bitcoin investment benefits this way doesn’t have to be quick. Once you see that your investment has paid off in the long run,
you can sell your Bitcoin in exchange for altcoins, or quit trading altogether and sell it to fiat money.

What factors should you consider when investing and trading Bitcoin?

Market volatility
You should always be mindful of the market’s volatility and how the prices fluctuate. A few hours can be the difference between
profit and loss. Since the crypto market runs 24/7, drops and rises can happen any time.

Trading capital
It’s important to take note of your trading capital and have limits. Know how much you’re willing to lose. Graph a Bitcoin investment
chart to see your progress, gains and losses.

Basic trading & investing knowledge
Having a basic knowledge of trading and different market analyses are needed, so you know you’re making informed decisions.
Protect yourself from huge losses and scams by researching and continuously learning about the industry.

Security
It’s also important to invest in a secure and safe wallet. Leaving your money in exchange sites is not advisable since these sites
can be vulnerable to cyber hacks. Store your coins in safe wallets such as apps or hardware storage devices.

Reaping profits with Bitcoin

Investing and trading are no shortcuts to being millionaires. It requires dedicating time and effort before you can see substantial earnings.
Placing your money in Bitcoin does not necessarily mean you’ll have a constant source of extra income.

When you’re investing, you’re often taking on a lot of risks. Do keep in mind that you should only invest money you are prepared to lose.
Most importantly, remember to make decisions guided by proper research and analyses.
Keep learning and keep daring, and soon enough, you might be seeing great payoffs!

Cheers

Guys, how do you like Roulette? Is it your game?

You probably know there some theories and strategies the players around the world have created.
For example, the gap theory. Never heard about it? Let’s fix it 

So, what is a gap?

A gap is the number of spins between hits of the same number. For example, if the number 8 hits on spin #1 and hits again
on spin #41, the gap is 40 (41 - 1). If 31 hits on spin #10 and again on spin #30, then the gap is 20 (30 - 10).
Simply put, a gap is how long a number takes to hit again on the Roulette wheel.

Roulette number sequence

Roulette is a semi-random game, and when a specific number has not won for a while, many players expect that this number
will win soon. Many players also believe that the winning numbers in a spin can be determined by looking at the previous
numbers that have already won. However, roulette doesn’t store information on the results of the previous games.
Therefore, the result of the ball spin is still an independent event and unexpected.

Repeating numbers

The probability of the number 15 to win twice in a row is due to solitary probabilities or 1/38 x 1/38 = 1/1,444. When it comes
to the probability of the number 15 winning three times is 1/38 x 1/38 x 1/38 = 1/54,872. The cumulative chance for number 15
to win four times is 1/38 x 1/38 x 1/38 x 1/38 = 1/2,085,136. In short, the chances for this event to materialize again decrease
more for each occurrence.

Some individuals surmise that for the number 15 to win four times, it has to contend with exceptional odds. However, that’s not
the case because the first three-wheel spins can overcome the odds.

The first three spins have a probability of 1/54,872 and the number 15 has to conquer the 1/38 probability to win on the fourth
spin. If it wins, the total probability of all four spins is 1/54,872 x 1/38 = 1/2,085,136. 

Number sequences

Usually, betting techniques recommend wagering on groups of adjacent numbers on the roulette wheel head. That’s why
the makers of the wheel devised the wheels where players will have to scatter their chips while betting so that placing
a wager on contiguous sectors is impossible.

For instance, you feel like the number 8 will win the current round but you’re uncertain if it will win in the next round.
If that’s the case, you can opt to settle a Neighbor wager that comprises the number 8 and four adjacent numbers such as
14 and 23 to the right and 25 and 34 to the left. Therefore, five casino chips should be allocated to each of the five numbers.

Here are other alternatives:

Voisins du Zero -  This covers 17 adjacent numbers which are 22, 18, 29, 7, 28, 12, 35, 3, 26, 0, 32, 15, 19, 4, 21, 2, and 25.

Orphelins wagers - This covers a total of eight numbers. The three numbers, which are 6, 34, and 17, are adjacent and situated
in one section of the wheel. The five numbers, which are 1, 20, 14, 31, and 9, are located in another section.

Tiers du Cylindre - This covers 12 numbers, namely 33, 16, 24, 5, 10, 23, 8, 30, 11, 36, 13, and 27.

Number spans

The most common contiguous wager combination is concentrated in the Centre Column if you look into the American roulette.

For instance, the Centre Column wager covers a period range of 15 numbers, comprising approximately 2/5 of the circumference
of the ring. Then the range of numbers from 13 to 32 clockwise have gaps of 0, 5, 9, 26, and 34.
Additionally, two extra numbers which are 6 and 31 remain beyond the range.

Normally, this wager is placed in the following ways:

Column & Straight-up - The player can put one chip in each of the numbers 0, 7, 9, 28, and 30.
They can also place a stack of four or more chips in the centre column. 

Column & Street - The player may put one chip on the row that includes the numbers 7, 8, and 9,
and another chip on the row that includes 28, 29, and 30. Then, they can put two or more chips in the centre column.

Centre Column - The player can wager on the centre column and hope that the ball does not stop on one of the five gaps.

Street Bet - There are two combinations of street wagers that are often used by professional players since they cover
eight number spans.
The first span stretches from 25 to 4 and includes four street wagers—
one on 4, 5, 6, one on 16, 17, 18, one on 25, 26, 27, and one on 31, 32, 33.
Remember that the opposite side of the wheel also has a secondary range of four numbers, which are 20, 29, 14, and 5.

The second span that is called Street and Split bet stretches from 16 to 7.
This contains one street wager on 7, 8, 9, and one on 28, 29, 30,and two split wagers—one on 13-16, and one on 15-18.
Two numbers—35 and 2—will remain outside of the major span.

roulette games at Bitcasino.

Hi guys

Today I want to tell you about live casino. Let's make it crystal clear what is it all about and how does it work.

Back in the day, the only way to play casino slots and table games was by going to a land-based casino.
Years went by and online casinos started to become popular. Many players switched to online casinos because
there are more playful twists to the games. The whole experience also offers great comfort.

Now, another type of casino is available for players to enjoy—the live casino.
Live dealer games are those online games with a real dealer who facilitates the game via video chat.

How does it work?

The cards the live dealer’s deck contain microchips that are connected to a computer program.
As the dealer handles the cards, their movements are translated through the computer software into cards
that you can play with on your screen.

Once bets are placed, the dealing begins. Each card is scanned as it is removed from the deck so that your screen
is updated with the correct card and the game’s important information, such as card count, is accurately displayed.

Players can communicate with the dealer in real-time through the video chat function and can tip the dealer,
much like at a real casino. In almost every respect, these casino games are exactly like the real deal,
only you can enjoy them all from the comfort of your home, at any time of the day and away from the crowded
or stuffy environments of a brick-and-mortar casino.

The tech behind the live casino

Live casinos are made by top game providers such as Evolution Gaming and Microgaming.
To craft a perfect live casino game, the technology behind it has three main areas:

* a live streaming studio
* the software area where data gets handled
* an analyst’s space

Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

The OCR is highly important when it comes to technology in a live casino. It makes the games interactive as
opposed to simply being a live stream video.

The OCR tech is set up in a live casino for the purpose of reading every single bit of the game’s data.
It processes data such as where the ball lands in roulette and which cards are dealt in blackjack.

The results are sent to players through the use of a live stream video. Another round of bets starts again from there.
This entire process is all thanks to the data collected by the OCR. It registers results and decides both the winners
and losers through these data.

Live casino tech: key elements

Live casino technology has various key components to make games work and give the players the best experience
they can ever get.

Web camera

Web cameras capture everything that happens during a game. Through these cameras, you can see what happens on
the other side of the screen real-time.

During the first few years of live casino’s release, large cameras stream the games. Nowadays, smaller cameras are used.
They use three or more devices to let you see the game from different angles.

Game Control Unit (GCU)

The GCU is attached to every live table. It plays an important, if not the most important, role in the technology behind a
live casino because it assists the dealer in running the game. It encodes the gameplay’s feed and delivers them to players.
No game can run without the GCU.

Dealers

Human dealers have a crucial part in making live casino technology work. They are trained to properly conduct a game
while strictly following rules. They also create an experience where players can feel as if they’re in a land-based casino.

The dealers’ actions are tracked to ensure that they are properly handling the games. Nowadays, there is an option to
switch to automated dealers for faster and more accurate gameplay.

Tables and wheels

Both tables and wheels have sensors to convert results into data that a player can see. Results are given as soon as
the wheels stop turning.

Monitor

Monitors are important to the dealer as much as they are to the players. Dealers see online players through a monitor.
It lets them keep track of bets so they know when to close rounds. Live chatting is also enabled through monitors.

Live casino: Enjoy high-class entertainment

We want to offer you as many possible to enjoy the live casino experience without leaving the comfort of your home
and giving you the unique option to grow your Bitcoin savings.

Explore the LIVE CASINO games!

You are welcome to share your experiences.

Cheers

Hi guys,

The Lightning Network is the brainchild of the mysterious brains of Bitcoin who came together with the intention of solving their growing blockchain scalability concerns. Unfortunately, the Lightning Network is not as mainstream as you might think.

But why and what can be done?

First, we need to take a look at BTC’s transaction speed which affects its scalability.

Bitcoin and its scalability

Card giant, Visa, has the capacity to process 24,000 transactions per second (source: howmuch.net), whereas Bitcoin can only handle 7 transactions per second. This comparison shows that Bitcoin is way off the mark for speed, and if it’s ever going to take the lead as a processing powerhouse, it will have to work on its scalability. That’s where the Lightning Network comes in.

What is the Lightning Network?

The Lightning Network is the brainchild of the mysterious brains of Bitcoin who came together with the intention of solving their growing blockchain scalability concerns. With the Lightning Network, small to medium daily transactions no longer have to be stored on the main blockchain, with its 1MB storage cap. Known as the “off-chain” approach, this newly formed network lets users set up thousands of microtransactions that essentially fall into one payment channel or one transaction, massively reducing the transaction load on the main network.

Lightning Network vs WBTC on the Ethereum Network

Unfortunately, the Lightning Network is not as mainstream as you might think. Although its adoption is growing gradually, it’s been found that there are currently more WBTC locked in the Ethereum network compared to BTC in the Lightning Network.

Coin Telegraph reported on May 13, 2020, that a single transaction on the Ethereum network that day minted one thousand WBTC tokens. This transaction alone represented more value in US dollars compared to the entire Lightning Network. Their report report went on to state that there are now 2,300 BTC locked in WBTC tokens, compared to 927 BTC that’s locked on the Lightning Network. This brings us to: why hasn’t the Lightning Network gained more traction and what can be done about this?

4 things the Lightning Network needs to become more mainstream

Like any new venture, in order to gain traction, there are a few catalysts it can draw on in order to become mainstream.

1. Adoption of BTC as a viable “real-world” currency

BTC has been gaining strong traction each year but it’s still got a way to go in terms of mainstream adoption from vendors outside the crypto sphere. BTC needs more sole traders and companies to jump on the digital grid and utilize cryptocurrencies as a long-term payment solution for goods and services rendered. In addition, merchants who are already using BTC should start accepting payments through the Lightning Network so as to create a network effect. The more people accept Lightning Network payments, the more others will start to accept them as well.

2. A marked decrease in fees

The Lightning Network charges a standard fee to open and close a payment channel. Between these two main actions, there can be millions of transactions with tinier transaction fees. If Bitcoin transaction fees and fees of opening & closing Lightning Network channels were to increase (and this may be the case in time to come), then the Lightning Network will run the risk of decreased adoption.

3. The right marketing efforts

An increased presence (and voice) on crypto forums, social media, and the like could go a long way to entrenching the network’s reputation as a go-to transaction solution.

4. Up the security and storage protocols

The Lightning Network needs to stay online at all times to process the endless transactions taking place. This means there’s no possibility of “cold storage” for your BTC coins. What is cold storage? Put simply, it’s a way to hold BTC and other crypto coins offline. If your coins are always online, there’s going to be that back of mind threat for account hacking and theft. As decentralized as they are, once a coin goes missing, you’re not getting it back. Solution? To have the Lightning Network give us a way to keep our currency offline.

That's the ultra-quick round-up the Lightning Network and what it needs to become mainstream.

What do you think about the future of the Lightning Network? 
 

Cheers
Karl

Hi crypto fans

What do you know about crypto payment solutions?

Crypto payment solutions allow people to buy and transact in cryptocurrency.
They facilitate seamless payments through different secure apps/websites that can also be integrated with businesses.

Why and which solutions should you use? Let's find out.

Crypto payment solutions allow people to buy and transact in cryptocurrency. They facilitate seamless payments through different secure apps/websites that can also be integrated with businesses. Once these solutions are integrated, customers can easily transfer funds to merchants and vice versa.

These crypto payment solutions are like wallets that allow users to manage their funds. They can be divided into two categories: custodial and non-custodial.

Non-custodial services → This allows users to fully manage their funds, transactions and information details. Private keys will be given to users once they open their accounts. These keys consist of mnemonic phrases that contain 12 - 24 characters and will not be stored inside the wallet.

Additionally, non-custodial services can be accessed anytime and all transactions made within the application are reflected in real-time, so users can track their payment activities. Since this is fully decentralized, users are fully accountable for their transactions.

Custodial services → This type of service has servers that have access to users’ information. Before making a transaction, users are required to inform their custodians first. Additionally, if users forget their private keys, servers can help recover their wallet details.
 

Which crypto payment solutions are people using?

Atomic pay

Atomic Pay is a non-custodial payment solution that caters to seven digital currencies, namely:

* Bitcoin Cash
* Bitcoin
* Dash
* Litecoin
* Dogecoin
* Bitcoin Gold
* Stellar (XLM)

Its intuitive interface that allows you to see all the data you need in an organized manner. 
Atomic Pay is an ideal payment crypto gateway if you want to use your funds for shopping in physical stores. It has an API integration that can generate its own payment invoice in a matter of seconds. Additionally, the application only requires 0.7-09% transaction fee.
According to Benz Rif, at least 1,700 merchants across the globe have implemented Atomic Pay in their payment system.

CMM Pay

CMM Pay is another non-custodial payment solution that solely accepts Bitcoin transactions. However, the company said that they are looking forward to expanding to more digital currencies in the future.
What makes this payment gateway appealing to users is that it features a 24-hour customer service and a cool merchant dashboard feature where you can view crypto sales, your wallet’s balance, and different metrics such as crypto conversions. CMM pay has a 1% transaction fee for its services and is quick and easy to set up.

8Pay

8Pay is a crypto payment system that runs on the Ethereum Network. It features an on-demand payment gateway between the buyer and seller, which makes transactions easier for both parties. It can also be used to create a subscription-type payment method for various commodities and services.
8Pay only accepts Ethereum, ERC20 tokens and stable coins. According to 8Pay, the purpose of this is because their network is solely built for smart contracts and cannot be supported by other cryptocurrency networks.
Additionally, 8Pay has neat features like payment buttons, payment links and can generate invoices which is good if you’re someone who’s always on the go.

Coinbase Commerce

Coinbase Commerce is a user-friendly non-custodial solution that accepts Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and USDC transactions. Currently, more than 2,000 merchants around the world have integrated Coinbase Commerce into their payment system.

Blockonomics

Blockonomics is a BTC-only crypto payment system. With its intuitive interface and user-friendly design, this payment gateway is easy to navigate.

What makes Blockonomics special is that users can link it to their existing wallets for extra protection and create P2P invoices every time you make a purchase.

Bitcoin Cash Register

CoinGate

CoinGate is a crypto payment solution that accepts multiple crypto-assets such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Ether and 50 other digital currencies. This user-friendly payment gateway features an API, shopping cart plug-ins, payment buttons that can cater to various types of businesses.

Bitpay

Bitpay is a payment gateway that supports at least 22 e-commerce shops. With its user-friendly interface, it’s easy to navigate and use for both sellers and buyers. What makes Bitpay more appealing is that it has a Visa card that can be used for any type of transaction. In addition, this payment gateway is linked with Skrill, allowing users to easily shift from Bitcoin to fiat currencies. Bitpay also enables users to transfer crypto funds from one wallet to another.

 
Why should you use crypto payment solutions?

1. Cheaper transaction fees

Before cryptocurrency payments were an option, people were plagued with endless (and expensive) fees such as ATM, checking account, merchant, debit/credit card and check fees that sometimes cost more than the transaction.
By using crypto payment solutions, these fees are eliminated. Payment gateways such as Bitpay and Coinpayments only impose a fee of 0.5 to 1% per transaction, which is lower compared to the 2% fee from regular banks and wire transfer services.

2. You can track your transactions real-time

You get to see the status of your transactions inside the server when you use crypto payment solutions. Additionally, once it gets finalized, you will instantly get a record of your transactions. 

3. Accessibility

Crypto payment solutions can be accessed on any device. Moreover, if you have any concerns about your transactions, digital asset solutions have responsive chat agents that will respond to you right away.

4. Instant transaction settlements

Sending funds through crypto payment solutions won’t take long to get finalized. Since cryptocurrencies travel through the blockchain, sending and receiving isn’t blocked by any third-party presence. You just need your device and Internet and you’re all set.

5. Safe and theft-proof

The ledger used for crypto payment services runs a routine check of the funds owned by the user. Inside this ledger, there are nodes that ensure all the transactions are encrypted and tamper-proof.
 
Different uses of cryptocurrency payment solutions

Paying bills

Cryptocurrency payment solutions can be used to pay bills such as rent, gas, electricity, and water. However, before you send your funds to pay your monthly dues, make sure that you check if this service is available in the payment gateway you are currently using. Here are some of the payment solutions that accept Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies:

* Paidbycoins.eu
* Piixpay.com
* Inpay.pl
* Bitwa.la
* Coins.ph
* Coins.co.th
* Hyphen.to
* Shopping

A lot of stores have been slowly accepting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for payment. Right now, you can find several online shops that allow you to shop till you drop using crypto payment solutions. Here are some of them:

* Microsoft
* Overstock
* Namecheap
* Starbucks
* WholeFoods
* NewEgg
* Try Lolli
* CVS Pharmacy
* Macy’s
* Hilton 
* Gap

Each crypto payment system integrates different brands in their network, so you can find various stores depending on the server. If you want to look for more stores that are open to crypto payments, you can use interactive online maps that allow you to check which stores in a specific area accept digital assets like Coinmap.org, Gocrypto, and GoBitcoinmap.

Hey guys
 
Today I would like to tell you more about (casino) skill games.

In the hopes of attracting the younger generation, skill games are now being introduced into (casino)s both offline and online. Why? Because millennials are used to playing games on gaming consoles (PlayStation, XBox), tablets, phones and massive multiplayer roleplaying games (MMRPG).

So what are skill games, and how exactly do they work? Let’s talk about it.

What are skill games?

Skills games are (casino) games where players are rewarded based on their skill or ability to play a game. The outcome is determined by the player’s ability/skill, rather than by chance. The better you play, the higher the reward.

Skill-based slots VS traditional slots

With traditional games such as video slots, you don’t have to develop any skill as you simply choose and place your wager. What happens next is up to the machine. When it comes to (casino) games of skill, it’s up to you to increase your payout at any time. The Return to Player (RTP) percentage is always affected by how well you play the game.

Skill games you can play at Bit(casino)

At Bit(casino), we have a selection of skill games from Green Jade, a leading gaming provider of arcade skill games.

1. HAMMER OF FORTUNE



A highly popular game, Hammer of Fortune ups the ante by with its intriguing narrative and the all-important hammer that affects the payout based on your skill. What’s special about this game is the hammer and its energy levels that can help you get Loot Chest Wins.

* There are 5 energy levels on the Hammer that get filled with energy as you spin.
* What you want to do is to use the Hammer to get the 3 Treasure Chests in the same row so that you win cash prizes or free spins.
* Each of the 5 energy levels on the Hammer lets you can smash one symbol.
* When your Hammer is energised and at least 3 Treasure Chests appear on adjacent reels, you can use then Hammer to smash down symbols (a maximum of 5, equivalent to the 5 energy levels) to get the Treasure Chests into the same row.
 

2. SIDE BET



Side Bet is a classic 3 by 3 slot game with flip boards that will remind you of old train stations and airports. What’s special is the namesake of this game - the side bet, which affects the payout you get.

* The side bet has its own bet amount that is independent of your main machine’s bet amount.
* In the side bet, you get to choose where you think which symbols will land. You can choose a maximum of 3 symbols at one time, and how much you want to wager on the side bet.
* Your side bet has to be made before you spin the reels.
* If you make a side bet with more than one symbol, all symbols have to be correct in order for you to win the side bet.


3. CANDY WALL



Want a skill-based (casino) game that isn’t a slot? Then head over to Candy Wall! Candy Wall requires multiple skill elements in each minute of gameplay, giving you a combination of both skill and chance.

The skill aspect of this game lies with your control of the candy cannon. As the candy falls, your job is to blast it all without losing the candy cannon’s health or getting hit by any of the enemy candies.

As the game progresses, you’ll get fired at by enemy candies and you have to keep watch as your candy cannon can only take a certain amount of hits. The game is lost when candy passes beyond the candy dispenser or when your candy cannon gets destroyed.
 

Let us know have you played skill-based games before and what do you prefer = traditional slots or skill games?

Thanks
Karl

Hey crypto fans
According to Google Trends, the price of Bitcoin is one of the most commonly searched topics related to digital currency.
 
Some days, the price of Bitcoin shoots up while other days, it goes down.
How is the Bitcoin price determined and how does its value increase or decrease?
 
Bitcoin price history and fluctuation

The initial price of Bitcoin
Following its release as open-source in early 2009, Bitcoin’s value was practically next to nothing. Crypto users mainly traded with it as a hobby. The first crypto transaction ever recorded happened in 2010 when a crypto-miner in Florida bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC. Later in July 2010, the first real price of a single Bitcoin went from around USD$0.0008 to USD$0.08 when it skyrocketed by 900% in five days.

The value of Bitcoin when the crypto craze erupted
By 2011, the value of Bitcoin steadily increased as it took parity with the US dollar and recorded its first 'bubble' of USD$31 before its first price drop. In the following year, Bitcoin gradually started to take off due to the rise of new crypto exchanges in the market, as well as miners in China. In 2013, the world was taken by the crypto craze when Bitcoin soared from a virtually trivial amount to a whopping USD$1,000.

Highest recorded Bitcoin price
During 2017, the price of Bitcoin reached its first record high. It started in August when it passed USD$3,000 for the first time. It broke USD$5,000 and USD$6,000 later on, until it topped at USD$8,004.59 in November.
By December 2017, the price of Bitcoin reached USD$17,900. On December 17, it rose by 5% and recorded an all-time high of USD$19,783. It is still the highest price Bitcoin has ever hit as of today.

The fall of Bitcoin
Despite the great year Bitcoin had in 2017, its price suffered a continuous decline in the next year. BTC value dropped by 50% in February 2018. For the 10th anniversary of the digital currency in October 2018, Bitcoin maintained its price above USD$6,000. By December 2018, the price plummeted below USD$3,300.

The value of Bitcoin in 2020
Despite the meteoric rise and fall of Bitcoin throughout the years, crypto experts remain positive with the potential of the digital asset, especially this year. This is because Bitcoin is foreseen to soar to a new all-time high of USD$20,000 in 2020.

How is Bitcoin valued?

The price of Bitcoin has been historically volatile, but what makes Bitcoin go up and down? In the most basic sense, trading determines the price of Bitcoin.

What gives Bitcoin value is the last trade conducted on a crypto exchange. This means the rise of buying pressure is what makes Bitcoin go up while the increase in selling pressure lowers its price instead.

What is driving Bitcoin price: Main factors that affect BTC

It’s not uncommon to see BTC’s value fluctuate to a 5% or even 10% difference in just a day. Why so?

Perceived store of value
A store of value means an asset is seen to be useful in the future. Like gold or silver, you can mine a fixed quantity of 21 million BTC. Meanwhile, fiat money is dynamically regulated by governments.

The intrinsic value of the cryptocurrency in the future
As a store of value and method of value transfer, the changing views in the intrinsic value of Bitcoin affect its price. This makes the Bitcoin price fluctuate based on significant events that happen each day.

Risks from BTC investors with large holdings
What makes Bitcoin go up or down also relies on its users. Investors with Bitcoin holdings of more than USD$10 million risk severely disturbing the market if they liquidate that much of it.

Losses and security vulnerabilities
It’s no secret that Bitcoin has suffered major losses and security breaches through the years. From thefts and hacks, these highly publicized incidents contribute to the question of 'Why does Bitcoin change value?'.

Adoption and government regulation
Crypto has been speculated to move into mainstream finance. With that, the adoption and government regulation of cryptocurrencies can increase the buying pressure of Bitcoin thus affecting its price.

Bitcoin’s latest movement - Jan to Aug 2020

At the time of writing, 1 BTC is valued at USD$11,746.30 and it is expected to further go up by the end of the year despite the recent COVID-19 outbreak.

In March 2020, the value of Bitcoin crashed to USD$5,000, along with several markets around the world. Though unlike traditional markets, it returned to the spotlight and even rallied year-to-date highs due to an influx of new users. There was also the much anticipated Bitcoin halving this year that aided its boost, as well as a ‘Make Bitcoin Great Again’ effort in the US.

In the past few months, 1 BTC has been hovering around USD$10,000, an increase of over 30% since the start of 2020. The finite supply of Bitcoin made some investors consider it a safe asset like gold. Amid the lockdown, there has been an 8.8x increase due to Bitcoin purchases from both Boomers and Gen X. It is speculated that the price of Bitcoin will reach around USD$20,000 this year.

Why is Bitcoin going up so much?

Bitcoin almost always has an incredible recovery no matter the issue. Crypto Research Report (CRR) published an analysis in June 2020 predicting Bitcoin’s future price to reach almost USD$400,000 by 2030. With Bitcoin’s price right now, it appears to be a strong possibility.

Commodity strategist Mike McGlone pointed out how unprecedented central bank stimulus measures and new quantitative easing help the store of value of Bitcoin. He even likened it as the digital version of gold.

Moreover, with the second peak of COVID-19 cases, experts believe it can affect Bitcoin and make it go up. It is foreseen by experts that the scenario can incite more quantitative easing as it further depreciates the dollar.

'With a fixed supply and increased demand, you can't ignore the attractiveness of cryptocurrency assets in these unprecedented times,' finance professor Andros Gregoriou concludes. 'A currency like Bitcoin, which holds its value—even increases it—will be very attractive to use, buy, hold and transact with.'
 
How about you, how often do you check the Bitcoin price?

Cheers
