Bitcoin's sitting at 77k right now. Are we really gonna hit 80k in May and stay above it? Just got 5 baby bulls, I think they’ll pump over 80k this month.
Is Bitcoin hitting 80k by May a real possibility?

Interesting question. Just checked the charts again, had to redraw some stuff. Markets can get stuck in a bad mood, you know? Looks kinda bullish for a recovery though. We could see gains if we keep this up. I mean, 90k isn’t outta the question if we broke that downtrend since the ATH.
I totally see 2019 vibes here. Remember that jump from 4k to 14k then crashing back down? It could happen again. But all I’m doing now is stacking and hodling. If we hit 87k or even 91k in May, I'd be thrilled!
With total chaos happening globally, anything’s on the table. Bitcoin could skyrocket to 80k in a few hours or fall below 60k just as fast. Just look at how things are in Iran, it’s a mess.
No one talks about key players like Russia, the Caspian Sea, and Iran. I mean, shipping nukes is a legit concern. If the US wants to keep Iran in check, they need Russia's help. And that’s something nobody seems to mention anywhere.
Right now, I doubt we’ll even see 80k this April. The month's still long and the way Bitcoin's moving, holders might be in for a wild ride. Some are even whispering about 100k soon!

80k feels close, but mentally it seems far off. Today's pump looks like it’s winding down. Bitstamp shows we’re above 78.3k, but might not last. I’m still bearish overall. Bear market, remember?
We hit 78k today, which is wild. If this keeps up, who knows? We might pass 80k by April! If you're betting on May, you might cash in soon. I see us sprinting towards 90k.

Totally agree, we’re on track for 80k. If we keep this current momentum, we could hit it by next week. Middle East tensions easing kinda helps too. The oil crash is benefiting Bitcoin and gold.

We could even hit 82k before May if this bull run sticks. I see a liquidity zone around 80k to 85k, but it’s anyone’s guess after that. Might bounce back but who knows?
Nah, we’re still in a baby bull phase. Until we drop under 71.6k or properly break above 80k, it’s all speculative. We’ve dropped from 60k, so a 30% rise to 78k looks weak for now.
I think the Strait of Hormuz opening is why we’re seeing this pump, but it was opened before and still struggled under 65k. People will realize soon enough that this rally might not hold.
Super stoked to see Bitcoin climbing today. No way to tell when it’ll peak or drop, but if it keeps this pace, I’d bet on over 90k in May. Patience wins!
Honestly, I think 80k's totally doable this month. We’re still trending up, and the breakout from the 13th looks solid. But there's a lot of liquidity to deal with, so don’t count your chickens too soon.
The baby bull's been fun but still feels a bit shaky. April’s showing some bullish signs and maybe we see 80k soon? Just hit 78k while I’m typing this!
Haven't been on here in ages, but seeing BTC at 78k pulled me back in. I’m not too concerned about hitting 80k, but I want to see a strong support at 75k.
If we keep this upward trend, hitting 80k by April seems real. Just hope those jumping in late don’t get burned if things reverse.

Wow, popped in here expecting bad news, but 77k is good. Was thinking markets wouldn’t reflect geopolitical chaos, but now I feel bullish again. Just hope the Middle East issues don’t drag us back down.

80k in May? Not saying it’s impossible but it's not a sure thing either. Markets are unpredictable and a lot of folks thought we’d drop under 60k.
Current price spike comes from renewed enthusiasm with the Strait of Hormuz news. Usually, such spikes pull back, so I’m skeptical we'll reach 80k soon unless the news isn't already priced in.
