I am afraid you might have missed out articles about Bitcoin reaching $20,000 as I have seen multiple news channels boasting about it. But it's yet to gain the level of attention which Bitcoin received in 2017/2018 since most of the people were not aware about Bitcoin and crypto world at that point of time. I have listed fee news articles about Bitcoin breaking $20k for you reference.

There is plenty of coverage, at least in my country (Croatoa),  but this time there is no fomo and hype so maybe that's why you think that media is not giving bitcoin enough attention. Honestly, I think that it is a good thing. For sure beats 2017 when every "expert" on TV was saying that BTC is going up to 100k in no time. The moment you see bitcoin being massively shilled in media, it is time for a dump. Since we don't see that yet, maybe we are not close to correction yet.


That's for sure. All of those that survived at least one of these bitcoin cycles are cautious now because they are perfectly aware that we can experience strong correction at any time, but at the same time they are calm because they know that even if that happens (and chances are it will) bitcoin will come stronger with new ATH.

Best thing you can do now is enjoy and relax

The media is all over it... I just saw a piece on my local news about this sudden increase in the price and I also watched a video that was send around on social media about this. There is not a lot of commodities that can emulate a $3000+ increase in such a short time period.

You can bet a lot of money on the fact that a lot of the media are going to call it a Ponzi scheme again and the gears of the media behind our competition are going to spread a lot of FUD to push it down again. 

Let's hope this is not a flash in a pan..... and this rally are going to continue. 

Actually I see Bitcoin's current situation on many places. I saw that it was in the trending topics in Twitter too. Bitcoin is not like the other cryptocurrencies. It is the number one in the market and people generally know something about Bitcoin but not much about other cryptos. So, I think it is not much possible to see that people and the media not talking about Bitcoin when the price goes to the moon.

Plenty of stuff has skyrocketed or has a price that doesn't make sense this year, so BTC isn't alone, that's why there isn't much mainstream media coverage. For example Tesla, or the Airbnb IPO, neither makes sense.

Also, reputable news outlets have been burned by the crash of BTC last time, they don't want to be seen as advertising for a very volatile, "shady" asset.

There is a lot of news regarding bitcoin all over the globe and have seen many. While it is true it is not getting as exposure as it should be but that could be due to govs not liking this stuff.

I think you missed a lot since the largest news resources covered this news, especially yesterday, I saw that almost all the media said that Bitcoin broke the price of $ 20,000 and that this is a new breakthrough in digital assets

Some Twitter handles have also published the bitcoin bull too. There is no way that bitcoin will have such increase and the media will not capture it. In 2017 it was all in the media and tlsince then both the bear and bull have been followed till date as it is with the run.

You can get every day updates on bitcoin in the past 2 weeks when bitcoin tried to break $20,000 and when it broke the cap to increase to almost $24,000. Coolcryptovator is right. I see news everytime I open my browser or visit any media websites. Non-crypto websites are very active to update news on bitcoin. Their writers and editors take the run of bitcoin to get more traffics for their websites.

Google trend chart: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=bitcoin. The trend is up.

Compared to 2017 price hype, Bitcoin have established good identity to the media. And credible companies got also involved in adaptation of Bitcoin. 2020 bitcoin pump is different from what 2017 event. The year is still not yet over and we can still expect higher price then maybe a correction will happen. Those who have invested before have already regain their capital only if they persevere to hold their coins.
