Hi folks,

As a newbie of this group,  i would just to clarify things with regards to the factors or what are the reasons why bitcoin will increase or vice versa. How can I determine the value of the bitcoin? Is it the prices of cryptocurrencies are driven by the laws of supply and demand—if more people want to buy, prices increase; if more people want to sell, prices decrease. Due to the nascency of and uncertainty surrounding cryptocurrencies (e.g., regarding regulation, technical challenges, enterprise adoption), supply and demand fluctuate wildly and hence, prices become volatile.
thank you for the enlightment!
Happy earnings! Grin

You have kinda answered your question by yourself there.

Supply goes up, price goes down. Supply goes down, price goes up. Demand goes up, price goes up. Demand goes down, price goes down. But one thing that has not been mentions was how media attention effectx bitcoin. The more people who know about bitcoin, the more people search for bitcoin on the web and therefore the higher the pice of bitcoin becomes. Also FUD can lower the price of bitcoin.
