Bitcoin to $1,000? What would you do? Part 1

Now, I'm just asking the question, what would you do if Bitcoin hit $1,000, or even less? The purpose of this post is not to offer any suggestion that Bitcoin is going to fall, but to see if you've prepared yourself for this possible outcome.

So why ask this question now? Well, there are a lot of pundits pushing the "ready to moon" scenario, perhaps more often than not out of wishful hopefulness. There are also a few that say Bitcoin is going lower. The reality is that no one knows what is going to happen next. But if the unthinkable happens, what would you do? Are you prepared financially? What about mentally? It never hurts to go through a gut check of how you would respond to a situation, even one that you do not think will come to pass.

So there you are, you've watched and waited and everyone tells you that it is going up. You may have even bought into some "FOMO", just to be safe. And then after months of careful planning, Bitcoin crashes. I mean it slams down so hard, you won't even know what hit you. What do you do now?

Many make a strong case that all cryptos will go the way of Bitcoin, up or down, regardless of a strong use case. And, anything is possible. Have you ferreted out the best blockchains that will at least make a comeback? What are you going to do when everyone around you has given up? You can't even sell your cryptos. What will you do then?

Ok, a bleak picture for sure. But, have you really thought through what you would do next?

To Be Continued

Sort:  

It's not going anywhere, with as much attention as it has been getting lately, if it does go to 1k, then that is the best freaking buying opportunity of our lifetimes and I am going to buy as much as I possibly can. I am even cool with it staying in this channel that it is for a few months so I can accumulate here as well.

to add to this, I really think we have hit bottom already, if we are all looking at the 2014 bottom and the repeating market pattern, then you will see that we are sitting on the 200MA just like 2014-2015. I am seeing about a 6 month accumulation period then the rise after that. But hey, I am just a dude on the internet that looks at charts, that is all. If you don't agree, that's cool, that's just like your opinion man, just like this is mine, lol. Be cool everyone and buy BTC!

Hi @guysellars, you made a very intelligent question in your post, because right now BTC value is more near to 1k than to 10k.
In my opinion, if crypto should keep alive, BTC cannot loose so much again, but is true that last year we watched the value frozen to around 6K and suddenly loose its value unprediticably, so now we are in the same stage, value is frozen to around 3,5K and it wait another news to make it rise o fall again.
I believe that BTC is gold of cryptos, with it lower than 1k i do not see a bright future for it, even blockchain is the future....:((

I hope it does! I could buy a couple more Bitcoins!

A lot of people feel the same way @cjturtleman. I'm just hoping that the markets stay liquid so we can buy.

If you now lose faith and sell your cryptocurrencies, then you give in to those who will do anything to make you do it. This isn't the end of cryptocurrencies! Bitcoin Will not fall to $ 1000! Don't even count on it. Cryptocurrencies have gone too far. Despite the media silence, thousands of people are watching the situation all the time, waiting for the best purchase price.

Appreciate your strong conviction @astromaniak. And I think several of your statements are right on, i.e. "...thousands... are watching..."

Let's hope we don't see $1K!

I think that too many people count on such a price, that's why it will not happen.

I am currenty holding bitcoin from 17k mark if it hit 1k i will still hold

Hi @tonyudo57. I know a number of hodlers in the same boat. Hodl on!

If it goes that low to 1k it will be the best opportunity to buy.
However the supply is running out while the demand grows daily. The probability BTC drop to 1k is so low that it will last few second on trade market if it ever happens.
Peace

Sounds like you are keeping your options open @wakeupkitty. Passing wealth down to future generations is always a good idea. Thank you again for participating/commenting.

As long as I can I will. What I already invested is "gone" anyway. I do not need it. If there is some more to invest I will give it a try for sure.

I will buy if its 100

Hi @opixtm. I think many of us think that would be a great price, However, if everyone has the same idea, there may not be a lot of coin available. We'll see.

Bitcoin to $10,000? Yeah I think so. Make sure you backup your private keys.

...This is why i stack metals to. Silver, Gold, Crypto — a great combo!

I agree @thedamus, actually holding commodities such as gold and silver, in addition to key cryptos, seem to be a nice portfolio balance.

Ill do nothing. What can you do except wait it out?

I expect that is what many will do @lordbutterfly. Many had bought in at 17k and above, so a little more loss right now does not seem to be bothering them.

Slijedio sam te!

There is always the possibility that Bitcoin will fall much more. That is something that can happen in this and in any market. The investor must have a contingency plan for this case. Hope is not an investment strategy. I believe in the technology and the future of cryptocurrencies but you always have to keep all options in mind.

Hi @rcanessa, thanks for posting. Totally agree, you must have a contingency plan. And "hope" is definitely not an investment strategy. Although I think many have fallen into that trap. I think the blockchain technology is here to stay. What the crypto market will look like in the future, I have no idea.

When a strong cryptocoin will figure out, all coins will lose it's value.

Thank you for contributing @miningpronews. There is much to be figured out for sure.

Hodl on an old external drive that will corrupt eventually.

a la gente que necesitan para vivir para tener una comunidad mejor de lo que ya estamos pasando aqui en venezuela

Hi @rondelgamer. Me gusta la idea de donar.

If the BTC falls to $1,000 is in 2020.
If the dollar is changed its position,
That I will buy it to many much.
If the dollar is still on the original position,
Then I will sell it for 50%

buy some more

I'm saving for that very reason for myself @mf93.

Well to be honest i would like it to see at 1k to clean up the mess of weak hands. We need long term investors and not quick get rich "investors"
Just look at top ten btc wallets....

Can we fall even more thats the question.

Im in short on btc so either way i will proffit

You make a good point @boskobuha. Many got into crypto because they thought they were going to get rich. Some did if they got out in time. But the serious players are looking long term and to specific sustainable business models.

Nothing... i only have 100000 satoshis and i earned it with faucets. lol

You are industrious @catraska.

Entraria en corto y me llenaria de plata!

El cortocircuito del mercado ha hecho muchos mucho dinero @sujoparoff. Pero también me gusta tu idea de comprar plata.

In my opinion If it falls it might be right time to rise and discover new investment to support and grow . there are a lot of investment need some support that have good effects in economy.

Looking for quality alternatives is always good @shiku.

agreed (cool nodding)

6 months ago he published his arrival at 3,000 USD some doubted others saw him coming, it is good to think different.
