No one can answer that question until we crossed the day with the first Bitcoin gold has been mined. Besides the price is still good at $6000. I don't know the reason for you question maybe you are looking for a dip so that you can buy bitcoin you are creating FUD. And bitcoin price is not being pumped. You can only used the word "pumped" in altcoins market.
