I'm trying to figure out 5 factors that may have a crucial impact on Bitcoin in 2018-2019
Already got 3 of them, what should I add in 4,5 ?
why would you need 5 factors anyways? are you trying to write some silly clickbait article on some website and then advertise it here?
there is only 1 factor which is important in the long run and that is adoption and it is growing. all the rest of them are only short term noise.
1. IPO Bitmain fin. results
2. One of the ETFs approved by SEC
3. China unban cryptocurrency trading
1. a mining company having an IPO has nothing to do with bitcoin price.
2. as i said this is only short term noise. in the long run an ETF is not going to change anything for bitcoin adoption and its long term price. not to mention that ETF is limited to one country while bitcoin is global. it is not even direct investment in bitcoin!
3. China never banned cryptocurrency trading to want to unban it now! they banned shady exchanges.
Trade in crypto currency for Chinese citizens was not formally banned, but there were practically no legitimate ways for buying and selling. Cryptocurrencies are only exist by operating in a grey area.
