If you want to enter and buy bitcoin, maybe now is the right time. That's because prices have gone down very far, don't wait for prices to fall again because if at any time prices go up you will lose the opportunity. It's better to immediately buy later if the price drops again to buy again. I am sure that next year prices will recover and continue to rise.
Yes you are right, if the price pumps everyone who are planning to invest in BTC will lose the opportunity. A lot of people are still waiting to see downfall and want to buy for more cheaper yes this is true, one of my friend has idea to buy BTC but he says the may go down and let's wait for few more days. One thing for sure in cryptocurrency is anything can happen over a night.
