Why won't the price of Bitcoin have much room to rise in the future?
1. The price of Bitcoin is too high; it's currently at $100,000. Is there anyone around you willing to buy it? If no one buys it at $100,000, will anyone buy it at $200,000? If no one buys, then the market makers will just swap among themselves; it's unlikely for institutions to cut each other’s positions, as their goal is to make money off retail investors. Retail investors will only stab each other when they can’t cut their positions; this is the brutal reality of the financial world, and there's no way to change it;
Retail investors are almost all holding onto a lot of altcoins. The market makers' goal is to make money, and retail investors have the most money. Therefore, the only way to attract more outsiders into the market is to create many wealth myths through a massive rise in altcoins. If altcoins don't rise this time, how many retail investors will be willing to participate in the next bull market? If no one plays, how will the market maker harvest profits from the retail investors?
Market makers are actually not afraid of retail investors making money; no matter how much they earn, they won't be envious. They are afraid of retail investors withdrawing their funds or quitting; because as long as you are playing, they believe that the money you made is only temporarily in your pocket, and ultimately they will find a way to transfer that money into their own pockets.
So why are so many people now predicting Bitcoin will rise above $180,000? Everyone is saying they believe it absolutely won’t reach that high. I calculated the highest point to be around $149,200, let’s wait and see.
