2020 – the year of Bitcoin

Well-known cryptanalyst and investor Tony Weiss in his author’s video shares forecasts on the growth of Bitcoin value for 2020. He is confident that in February the price of the military-technical cooperation will reach the limit of $ 10,000 apiece. Closer to the halving, which is scheduled for May of this year, the cost will decrease slightly, and then again go up. By the end of the year, the price of one MTC will not fall below the $ 9,000 mark, but will not exceed the $ 10,000 milestone. This figure will be the starting point for intensive growth in 2021, when most people who consider themselves to be a cryptocurrency community will finally understand that in the future there will be only one strong and investment-attractive coin – Bitcoin.

Tony Weiss assures that the current year 2020 will be the “year of bitcoin.” Firstly, the expected halving should significantly strengthen the Bitcoin network and affect the cryptocurrency price increase. Secondly, more and more young and financially successful people will begin to invest in bitcoin, abandoning other crypto coins.

According to Tony Weiss, in the next 5 years, Bitcoin will kill Litecoin and Ethereum. As the expert himself says in his video, the price of altcoins has already fallen below all limits. Holders of altcoins do not make sense to sell them, as they will remain in the red, but buying LTC, ETH or other coins of this group is also not worth it. All free money today needs to be directed to the purchase of bitcoin, so that in 2021 and subsequent years to earn on the growth rate.

Recall that most cryptocurrency experts predicted an increase in the value of bitcoin from the beginning of 2020. It seems that the forecasts do come true. Let’s see what will happen next. BeInCrypto constantly monitors cryptocurrency price changes.
