Bitcoin Forum

Do you guys think the law of Supply and Demand has a great effect with the halving? Or its a different thing, what if because of the halving, less miners would be interested and hence less supply of bitcoin, making people less interested. I'm just stating what I think, how about you?

There are too many post on this topic.

Bitcoin reward halving is going to affect the "Supply", but other factors, such as increasing blocksize/hard/soft fork, will affect user confidence and affect the "Demand". It is going to be a complex equation. So just sit back relax and enjoy the ride.

Surely that law has it's normal effect of increase in worth when there is increase in demand with tightening of the supply itself. Miners won't be less interested but those that own old mining rigs have to turn off their rigs due to not being on the profit side (any longer) but there's also the possibility of it's value going way up that as result keeps miners running their old rigs for extended period of time.

i believe that the supply and demand here is very effective but it is not the only reason that can change the price. apart from supply being lower you should keep in mind that miners (who are the people receiving the block reward that is being halved) will not sell their coins if the price is low hence decreasing the supply on the market even more.

I can't get your point by the way. If supply drop than there is no point for drop in demand. IF demand remain same which will or even it will increase after halving where as supply will be halved. This will surely gonna increase the bitcoin price.

yeah this is correct when bitcoin halving that time direct effect on bitcoin user and worth bitcoin more customer  leave a bitcoin using and many people think about bitcoin not good and that is not good for bitcoin future

U're getting it wrong, supply of bitcoins isn't related to "less" miners because supply is always the same, no matter the amount of miners (they just get less per miner).
The only thing that's affecting supply is that halving, and it's actually quite clever to make it so, because it gives people the incentive to stay, invest , and be a part of it much longer.

Right now demand is keeping up with the supply. Hence the stability.
Resolve the block issue and the demand will be greater than the current supply.
Cut the supply in half and the demand will be far greater than the supply.
Face reality that there are not that many Bitcoin left to enter circulation, and demand will skyrocket.

Not enough posts on this topic. The excitement hasn't started yet.

if the demand is increased and the supply is decreased then with that the price of bitcoin will be increased to much height, we can expect a much higher price of bitcoin if halving gone to occur, but I think the supply will not be reduced as many of the people have their coins holded for to supply at the time of halving.

Do you think this kind of threads will have an effect on bitcoin? I have seen a bunch of same thread created over and over again daily. Just wait for halving to happen and see how things will work out.

I think the price will peak out before the halving. After the halving the hodlers will dump their coins. After that has flushed out, the true rise of Bitcoin will happen next year some time.

The entire bitcoin speculation obey's the rule or say indirectly depends on demand and supply.Halving is something else.The reward of miners decreases which in-turn makes a few miners less interested in mining but NOT all of them.The reward still exists.Miners fees has to be paid so don't think it will cause any big impact to be worried about.

I think it will have a good effect on halving and the price increase, as with that the price will increase to more high amount. but at the time of halving we can see a much boost up in the price.

I just hope the demand will be still there after the halving. The price should also rise slowly, not pump and dump.

Yeah the demand for bitcoin is growing day by day as price is going to skyrocket, we can see only price ups and hope every users will enjoy halving, wishing this to continue ever.

The Bitcoin havling can be a good thing and a bad thing. For the people that want to buy bitcoins this is a good thing because the price will get halved so the coins get cheaper. If you want to sell this is less good news.

Yeah and 50% of miners would have to turn off and become uninterested in bitcoin for the price not to rise right, its quite hard to find any single miner who could suddenly drop bitcoin addiction over night.

I think it will increase in price, in fact it has already started and I am very glad that the price of bitcoin is more than 440 USD now, quite a good price in my opinion. By the way many miners will inevitably shut off because of difficulty increase, but good thing 14 mm or 16 mm are on our way which you should make it good again. We can only wait and see, not much we can do.

Yeah the halving gives people a opportunity but takes it away for some people at the same time. So if you are waiting to sell coins the halving is not good for you because you will get less money then normal. 

The halving is going to help some Bitcoin users who do not have the money to buy expensive Bitcoins. This is good because it also attracts more people and so Bitcoin is not becoming for people who already have money. 

yes it does have a big effect on the price, half the current amount is going to be rewarded to the miners so they will have half of what they had before to pay for their mining equipment and costs.
so they will only sell on higher prices to cover the difference.

halvign do not increase demand, but will decrease the dumped supply that miners are producing, but not by much

still it need to be calculated how much of an effect , for example 900 coins less, dumped per day, would affect the market

Miners are not going to stop mining after the halving, the price of Bitcoin will rise accordingly after the halving.
I do not see why miners would suddenly stop.

No, the supply and demand isn't affecting the halving. Otherwise, the halving is the thing that would affecting the supply and demand.

Half supply = Mining cost increasing = Mined bitcoin will be sold at higher prices = btc price skyrocketting

It affects the miners in that they get half their reward. Beyond that it affects the whole economy because the fact that there is a limited amount of Bitcoin being produced is felt. It is not only going to affect the miners.

Instead of 25 new bitcoins every 10 minutes, there will only be 12 1/2 every 10 min. That is not only an issue for miners, but also for the demand.

In order to keep up with the Bitcoin creation, only $5000 will need to be converted to Bitcoin every ten minutes instead of the current $10,000.

I think the mining cost increase does not necessary for the miner to sell it at the higher price. The demand determine the price.

It is not obvious that after halving miners will leave their work to mine, but they will try to increase their mining and with that they will continue to earn the same amount which they are earning now.
And if they leaved mining the newbies will be there to adopt mining.

??? the price won't halve... the supply of BTC will halve. I doubt the price will go down, in fact, i believe the price will increase. Regardless, even if the price does decrease, it is not because the price will halve.

It's not like the halving isn't widely known. If it happened all of a sudden out of nowhere without any expectation then yeah I feel there would bean effect on price. But as it's well-known to be coming up I think the market will be ready for it and don't expect to see much fuss.

I don't thing the same, with the halving bitcoin price will rise, and you will need more money to buy one bitcoin. This is not an split on bitcoin (like on stocks) its about the reward that miners have when solve a block. The supply of new bitcoins will be lower and prices (in my opinion) will increase.

The rate of new coins will drop.  The supply is still increasing, so it's not going to be like getting hit with an asteroid made out of $100 bills.  I think that's what most folks on this forum are expecting--and they're in for a rude surprise come July.

The halving halves the production.  It doesn't halve the price and it doesn't halve the supply. The price is determined by the market, and the supply increases with every block, whether the subsidy is 25 BTC or 12.5 BTC.

Miners will stop mining because if it currently costs them 15 BTC to mine a block (for example) and the subsidy drops to 12.5 BTC, then they will turn off the least efficient equipment until the cost drops below 12.5 BTC per block.

In bitcoin halving, always the price goes up? Or always going down? Why the bitcoin halving have date? Who do thid halvining? People or its automatic? I have so many question that i want to know about bitcoin halving so please answer me

Yeah i think that way also many miner will dump their hardwares because it is bad news for them it very hard to mine this days and if halving occurs the difficulty to get block is more higher and very sure they cannot get profit with it it is totally big lose because electricity is expensive and maintance fee is expensive too. Miners stop and get more difficulty about it.

i guess no one can answer about prrice situation when the havling come,its might dependng on how people react with the halving,bitcoin halving do by people who into block provider company,its what i guessed :D

the price can be speculated and it is not all unclear, you can predict some changes. for example the rise because of halving was expected and we have already seen it up to $450 today and for the future it is also expected to rise more but the magnitude of the rise is not clear.

This might be a good scenario. I am wondering if it's a good time to buy a bitcoin or two and sit on it and see what happens over the coming months. I would love to get my hands on a couple I guess.

Buying a couple of bitcoin's is almost certainly a good investment man, hold onto them for at least a year from now & it's close to a guarantee you will profit.

yes, in my opinion, bitcoins also use supply and demand. you know when bitcoin is popular when it demand will increase, and bitcoin price will increase , then supply will be dis crease. bitcoins price is also growing up because of halving, so halving will face it.

In bitcoin halving what is the good things happen? Its always good or sometimes.bad? What is halving in the law of supply? Hoarding = Halving? If hoarding is Halving why they dont called it Bitcoin Hoarding?  In the law of supply the product thats need people they hide it so that in market the price goes, once the price goes up they selling it. But why bitcoin price not always rise?

But majority believe that producing one btc will now be more difficult so price will be in correlation with price of mining. So halving directly influence price rise, through "artificial scarcity" but this is only because people thinking this way, but because it is truth.

supply is what is being dumped on the exchangers and as long as that becomes fewer the price will rise.
also the demand for bitcoin is increasing everyday because it is being adopted by different services and more people find out about bitcoin which will also increase the price.

What really is the use of bitcoin, when halving comes it will affect the supply of bitcoin hence increasing its price (As what people say), but why would I purchase an expensive coin (btc)? If it shoots pretty high in value, I admit, I only trade because its a profit but what I think is if it becomes more expensive what would be the pros for it to be still valuable?

Selling and buying of bitcoins definitely affect it's price and it is very volatile impact. But there are many other factors as well which affect the price of bitcoin(though their impact is slow). Difficulty in mining will not decrease the price of bitcoins. From the day halving speculations have surfaced, price of bitcoin is increasing everyday, and it is a good sign for any currency especially in the time of economic slowdown.

I hope the majority don't believe that the price depends on the difficulty because that is a misconception. The price depends on supply and demand and the difficulty has no bearing on supply or demand.

Price is only one of the many factors that drive difficulty. With the advancement of ASIC and more players involved, the difficulty will go up. But if the price remained low and keep dropping, many will find mining not attractive and will leave the game...

i must admit that you are definitely right about it in my opinion thus i have a big chance to make money on the bitcoin block reward halving, im hoping im right and that ill make good money

Stability of the price is not the right term and is heavily misused recently. Bitcoin is a very young asset and by definition its peice is very volatile. We have currently a mid-term horizontal trend the should end up as soon as we get some more positive events (development) or the disappoinment with the redult of the halving pump. Halving won't influence price much as there will be already 75% of all coins mined. They can be used to hedhe for the lower number of coins in the block till the time the difficulty adjusts.

Indeed, we are all hoping to make some money with the halving and I also think there is a good chance that we will do this.
Its just a matter of time and patience we need right now, we just have to hold our bitcoin and not spend too many of it.

halving should not affect the price at all, if you think rationally. i at least make my investments based on the total supply and not based on the current block rewards.

interesting to see how rational people are ;)

There will be a Bitcoin halving soon but there are a lot of people that is saying that the value will not even rise in the halving and that can be a huge problem for the most people.
Because they want to make some profit with Bitcoin in a fast time and that is not possible now.

I also think that we will not see some big rise after halving. I see bitcoin price is rising steady in last few months, that make me believe that this rise will continue, slowly how it should. We had some big things happened, steam accept btc, bovada accept btc.. now halving coming. All in all this is a good year for btc, if we come to double price from beginning of the year that will be great.

The halving will be very good for us all no doubts about that its just a matter of time before this will happen.
There is just such a big chance that it will be very profitable.

i agree with you. the price may rise and come down because of speculation but in the long run halving should not affect at all.

I agree that the halving will create a self perpetuating snowball effect from the buying pressure. Im being liberal with some assumptions but presently there are 3600 BTC mined per day. At a stable price of $450 per BTC that's $1,620,000 that's entering into BTC to maintain the price.
If the creation of new coins is cut in half to 1800 and $1,620,000 is still entering the market its inevitable the price will rise. The snowball will grow bigger as BTC gets more mainstream media attention and FOMO starts to take hold of the masses.

Its funny when I talk to common folk today about BTC the 1st they ask "is bitcoin still around?" 2-3 years ago it was "whats bitcoin?"
Point being almost everyone knows what bitcoin is or has heard about it but we didn't have the on ramps we have today. When the media hype starts it will be much easier for average folk to buy in. Once they get the taste of BTC it will be a slippery slope into the altcoin world.

Definitely exciting times ahead.

Yes the price is increasing steadily all I want is no decrease in price anymore so that to earn good profits on future.

I doubt we'll be seeing any more major decreases in the price, chances are it is going to remain consistently above $440 and the only drops will be corrections to the price. The trend for the future seems to be upwards.

Bitcoin Halving is very near and it will change our lives for sure.

Another word for "self perpetuating snowball effect" is "bubble". Bubbles pop.

Not all users are lucky to change our lives.. because more users are newbie about bitcoin in they are late  ithink to collect bitcoin but if they have a money to invest and to buy bitcoin maybe they can make a lots of profit.. or start loan now to neighbor and buy it for bitcoins..
But didnt know what will happen after block halving..

I don't want to disappoint you, but a lot of people is counting on the rise that will be based on the thin air. That is very dangerous. It may end up as quickly as it started. If at all it happens.

Agreed and as we know if the fundamentals are tight they find a floor stabilize and moon again with higher lows and higher highs until the next halving.

the higher low is what matter, before the first having the bottom was 0.1-1? after the first halving was 12? now before the second halving is 440, so after this second halving it will be probably higher(even 10x)

this is my logical conclusion

This...

The bitcoin halving will be very profitable, I really have no doubts about that to be honest, I think there is a good chance that the halving will let us make some profit.
Its of course not sure but most likely it will, and I also really hope this because I need it also.

How so? The price will increase a bit more from this price point because the block rewards are halved, and that's it. It won't change our lives unless the price shoots up to $5000 and higher this year. But that will not happen.

I think depending on how the network reacts to this halving then we will see what happens with the price..

There is a good chance that the halving will let us earn some good profit, see it as a reward we are getting for our patient.
We just need to hold our bitcoins from now and and stay positive and believe in it.

The law of supply and demand will totally affect this. The price will increase, but it will not be doubled. It's simply not sustainable. Maybe it might rise 60-70%, even 80%.

I hope bitcoin price increase exceeds 100% after halving. I just hope the price increase on bitcoin will be doubled. I'm sure if it happens it will create additional income for me

cant wait for halving so that bitcoin doubles

I am hoping anyway

already looks like people are buying as we are climbing up

I think that if the price changes due to its upcoming halving....it will change more as a result of the hype surrounding the event than on any economic principle.  The price might even go down instead of up....I guess we'll see when it happens!

100% is too much though. But i think it will reach at least 10% or more. As you can see, the price now increase again since the huge down yesterday. It's so scary though, the price can easily go up and go down.

Also note that the effect isn't instant.

The first halving took a while to actually have any effect on the price as well.

It takes a while for the market to respond to the new amount of freshly generated coins to be reduced.

Another day and another thread started regarding the bitcoin halving event.
Next time just do a quick search on the forum and you should find all you need.

Agreed. This is the 20th topic i've seen saying the same old thing..

Learn how to use a form there is a big bar at the top that says search :)

Due to the fact that most people believe in a price increase after Halving growing interest and demand for Bitcoins. And more people are invested in Bitcoin. Which will result in a price increase. I think so.

no way people wont get out of this forum because of halving, it only gives opportunity to its users and always it will be profit and it wont be loss to its users, i suggest this demand for bitcoin increases only because of halving.

But I think now that situation has been stopped, as people are not going to invest in bitcoin, and people are investing to pump the price of ethereum, while they do not know that the price of bitcoin will boost up after about two months and at that time the price of ethereum will dump down and will crash and everyone will lose their money with it.

Yeah will more people interest to use bitcoin after halving happen. Maybe when the price of bitcoin increase, many people see that a chance to get profit from that. And then getting start to use bitcoin.

Yes i think that supply and Demand formula will apply in bitcoin currency, but i believe we will manege it.   

Yes im very agree it is all the law of supply and demand because the more demands the more it higher the price and if the supply is less well the higher the price also. And im very sure halving were have a great effect for us user because it will make the price high and if the price is high well we can get more money by staking of bitcoin,

The block halving is only here to make sure there is no over supply that will make the value of Bitcoin potentially go down significantly when there isn't much demand. And that's it.

Bitcoin is growing year on year which attracts more and more users throughout the years and on top of that people get tired of banks and governments playing boss over everyone financially.

Bitcoin allows people to hold money/value without the need of banks and governments. And mainly this will make Bitcoin attract a lot users.

I dont think so,supply and demand have no great effect with halving,people guessing about the price,and block size.
so,stop tryig to post something related halving,because the event have short time,just wait and see.

Everyone is hoping that the halving will be good for us but there are also a lot of people thinking that the value will be not that much worth in the halving and that can be bad.
Bitcoin is quite bad for the halving now because it is not going to rise and that must change soon.

don't know if hes halving that means people don't use them often.
maybe it need more publicity don't you think so?

And that will be the reason of price increase the price will increase only if people started to take interest in buying and investing in bitcoin and if they start their online purchase and other businesses with bitcoin.

In some moments I think about what will people talk after halving? Cause now we so much predictions, so much wishes .... and everything else that halving starting to be boring a bit.
Let's wait and see, most of us are just using btc. I believe this question is much more about miners. For me its gonna be same like I already said. I'm a gambler and amateur trader so halving for me is a nice event but some people making a huge drama for nothing.

Lets enjoy and hope for the best!

Yes, there is no any chace of lose of our money in bitcoin as halving will bring a huge profit for all of us and after that the price will remain the same and will continue to increase, and all other alt coins are going to dump.

Well a huge profit i dont know the only thing true is that bitcoin will have to readjust their value because the lower reward,but maybe he are already on the halving value,last year 250 dollars and now 450dollars soo lets see we are aproaching the moment.

It depends on the fresh fiat flowing into the bitcoin economy. If the amount is the same after halving, the price might rise.

Yeah and it will be much higher at the time of halving which will be followed by coming months, so we can expect all time high by the end of the year.

The halving can come any time soon now but no one knows when exactly the halving is going to begin. The price has to rise a bit more before I want the halving to come in because I like to sell some coins before that.

Not anytime you can see this site if when the block halving start and done http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com
I hope it help to you to know when block halving will be done..

That is just 60 days away now. We will see what the price will be during that date. But it might have already risen.

The halving is definitely going to have an effect, but I think everyone watching the countdown clock in anticipation of "something" big happening between now and then, or even on that date, are going to be in for a big disappointment. The bitcoin ecosystem is large enough with plenty of coins on the Exchanges looking to be bough or sold each day, that the drop in production due to the halving is not going to have an immediate effect on anything. Most of the effect is in speculation and anticipation that is already happening, which is what is currently driving the price up, albeit slowly.

My personal guess as to how this will playout is that the daily BTC price will continue to slowly edge up to maybe the $500-$550 range just before the halving, maybe even a few days past, and then plunge again by $100-$150. It will go through some period of price instability before settling out. After this it will resume its upward rise, although again at a rate slower than most people expect or would like, and by this time next year (2017) it might be stable in the $500-$600 range.

The most people are hoping that the halving will be nice to them because they already waited a long time until the value will be more and they want of course make profit in a fast time.
And you also see that it is now rising slowly and that is perfect for the people with already Bitcoin

Right after the halving people will try and sell their bitcoins to try and fetch a higher price for it. But theybwill have to lower it until someone buys and the price goes down.

Yeah I couldn't agree more with you the halving will increase the value of bitcoin. It is what every bitcoin user waiting for. Actually holding bitcoin is sound good for my self . I am usually keep my payment from signatures campaign stay in wallet.

If the halving is for real would it bother anyone. Because what is halving just an fall of the coin or
is it a rise. Don't know why people always say halving if the coin is only rising these days..

Well, if you do look at the charts of bitcoin value during the time of the past halvings, you can see that there is a bubble of price (in near by time). And with those in mind, many people are expecting that the same will happen. I am hoping that it will happen.

There was only one halving before, and it just happened when Bitcoin hit the media at large thus very increased Bitcoin adoption and corresponding bubble (which had to pop). Today situation is much different and buble is not very likely, much more likely is just very slow price increase over next years because of the decreased Bitcoin supply.

Will this be happening soon, like in the next four months, or we still guessing?

No guessing here, it will happen at the end of July.

As i know therer is a day and a time i had saved it and deleted from the browser but will happen at July soo its around two months till halving happens and end with the huge speculation around it.

There isn't an exact day an hour, halving will happen on block 420.000 (Bitcoin halving happens every 210.000 blocks). There are webs that have clocks that try to find witch day will be, for example: http://bitcoinclock.com

It will happen early or mid July. It is predicted to be on 10 July.

http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/

Back then there were much less adoptions taking place, and very little services that accepted bitcoin. At this time there's way more people and institutions involved,
and bitcoin audience is much larger. I really don't see why there wouldn't be another hype. To me it looks much more possible than it was at the last halving.

The Bitcoin halving is coming soon and that is perfect but the bad thing is that you dont know what is going to happen with the halving because some people are thinking that they the value is not even rise.
And that is bad for some people because they have now to wait a longer time for it and that is bad.

Nice, appreciate the links for watching the date and it looks like I need to look more into this issue than what I have.
Its coming so quickly I was not expecting this to be such a short time frame.

A lot of miners will stop working after halving it's a fact, but we will get new miners on their placec. It will happen cause of increasing requirement to mine coins.

i think that the halving will effect the network hash power but not the price.

yes supply and demand have great effect on bitcoin price, when the demand of bitcoin increases it is because people need it and they will buy it at any price they are available so in this case the price of bitcoin increases and I will say this is the case not only with bitcoin or currency but with any thing available to purchase.

So what? Anyway other miners will come to work soon after halving? Nothing will change really, will change only bitcoin price from 400$ to ?00$ and that we all know for sure.

bitcoin halving, we are all waiting for it

this is not true, you are talking without any proper knowledge. do you even know how much it costs miners that you are concluding that they will stop mining just because of halving?!!

it would still be pretty much profitable for miners to continue mining even with the current price and half the reward.

Exactly, do you think that miners will stop and what, throw away their miners or something? That won't happen, mining will continue.
Maybe some individual will stop but that won;t change anything in the mining world. And actually with the possible bitcoin price increase it might be even more profitable that before.

Bitcoin haliving is not so profitable for miners.

Yeah because when the halving happen, many people who doing miner was get disadvantage from their money. I mean they can't get the profit as they expect before.

I believe it is not just one thing that can affect the bitcoin price. so don't look for just one cause that can change it.

supply and demand is one of them, the supply part will be affected by the halving because the block rewards Is being reduced to half and the demand is increasing everyday with new applications for bitcoin and new services that are accepting it. so more people will adopt bitcoin also.

but apart from that there is a lot of hype in the social media and whales have been accumulating bitcoin for the last six months while getting ready for a big pump and the rise will come.

and also don't decide about what miners are and aren't interested in when you have no knowledge of how they are working and how much they are profiting from their investment.

that's not right, when halving comes,the price will be rising just like the halving before,the miners will have lower amount of bitcoin but still have the same or little bit lower when they convert it to bitcoin,that's how halving work for miners

It will also depend on the community if we will buy bitcoins when the price is already at $700-$800. Or are we just sell our bitcoins to profit?

Then there was another time, another equipment.
Obviously, the miners will be the first to suffer losses from changes in the award. Their profits will decrease, and therefore, some of them come out of the game. The complexity of the fall, and then the remaining miners demand higher compensation. Thus, we may all have to pay a slightly higher fee for the transaction than the standard of BTC 0.0001, as now.
It is unlikely that this will adversely affect the economy of bitcoin ecosystem. On the one hand, Halving awards for block sewn in the report, people are aware of this, and waiting for a long time considered the market. However, the press is bound to be hype. And it can spur excitement.

yeah the miners are getting a big amount with mining and now they have addict of mining and have got the taste of mining and big income and halving the reward will not harm them much only a little amount will be lessen, so no one will stop mining, and still if someone will stop mining then there is the whole world some of them will definitely come to mine.

i think the opposite of yours. old miners will keep mining whatsoever, and there will be less people who are interested in mining so new miners won't appear much.

Everyone is hoping that the halving will be nice to the Bitcoin but the bad thing is that we cant know that for sure that it will be nice because it was already stable for a long time.
And we also cant control the Bitcoin and that is the problem but we just have to wait and see for what will happen.

well i am sure that will affect both, supply and demand, but because supply will fall and demand will rise, we will be okay,and miners should be okay too as price will rise

people predict even new ATH for bitcoin which is more than 1000$, so i think that it will keep old miners and even attract new miners to mine bitcoins,  i am sure that halving will be good for bitcoin

Halving will bring good money for users, who know how to wait, also i think in other sphears of bitcoin like mining or trading will be major changes but i don't know what it will be.

I have been hearing for months now that the price will rise because of the halving. Why is the price not rising in anticipation?
I think too many people are long expecting gains, and in the short term are going to get hurt.

Halving has not promised us higher price its just an speculation of people that price will be higher at the time of halving and time can only show us the reality.

I do think that supply an demand is basic things which drives the price or value of anything.Halving will surely have huge impact on market.How much will be this is hard to say but the bottom price will be over 400 $ once the process of halving is completed.

Its indeed a speculations but I honestly the speculations is right and that this will happen at the end of this year due to the halving that is coming, the future of the bitcoin cannot be predicted.

Keep your fingers crossed an be ready for surprises, as nobody knows what halving is going to offer us, but being positive I think price will rise.

Maybe we're in the halvening already. The Halvening Day itself might turn out to be pretty uneventful. The effects of it though might stretch back a while back in time and forward into the future as well.

I have been hearing for months now that the price will rise because of the halving. Why is the price not rising in anticipation?
I think too many people are long expecting gains, and in the short term are going to get hurt.
Do you think what :(

We cannot think about anything when price of bitcoin is involved as no one is sure what will be the price of bitcoin at the time of halving.

There are rumors of the Bitcoin halving going to come in to play soon again. I want to know when it id going to happen, does any one have any idea of it comes around. I like the price to go down so I can buy some coins again.

Yes Bitcoin's rate of inflation (block reward) halves in early July to 12.5btc. This will halve the revenue of miners. As miners are in control of the network and presumably a decent chunk of the liquidity, the idea would be to manipulate prices upwards (x2) to keep revenue intact.

It depends on the market and is not determined by a single person. Those who say that Bitcoin is halving those doing observations from the previous year, so they say it is and that there are 2 possibilities that is Actually occurring and delayed

 Most of the threats are here about halving, you should read it.

What i know from bitcoin halving is when halving is occuring bitcoin blocks is being divided by 2 and the price have a great cance tk rocket up or go down.One thing i also know about bitcoin halving event is when halving event occuring it will be hard for miners to mine bitcoins maybe because of the bitcoin blocks being divided.And halving happrns every 4 years if i were right.

you can see the countdown here dude http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/ I thought before that time expires make sure you've collected a lot of bitcoin and prepares to sell bitcoin prices. halving the closer so better to buy bitcoin now

now is the best time to buy bitcoin than ever. the price has been taking a hit and going down in the last two days and nobody knows when it is going to stop being at this lever and be reversed. so this can be a good dip to buy bitcoin before the halving and the big rise that comes with it.

You know nothing, John Snow.

if bitcoin halving is for real there will be allot of people very happy and off course there are some people who are really mad. Only because they want to sell there coins on the best moment. And is there is a halving coming you don't know what to do with your coins.

I saw that the Bitcoin halving is right around the corner and that it is coming within 49 days. This can effect the price in a huge way but this is also a good thing that the halving is about to come. the halving attracts allot of media attention which can lead to more Bitcoin users.

Ita not humor as i see the past halving chart and history in wiki it trully ocuring and it has great effect on bitcoin price because  its state that the price of bitcoin will go higher for this said event, history will speaks for future and surely halving is profitable for those who holding big amount of btc and dont worry for those who dont have savings we still can earn because price will still high.

Bitcoin will come to the halving and that is because you also can see now that there will be more people that is going to use Bitcoin and that is nice.
But we are not still for sure that the value will rise and that is the problem.

Everyone is hoping that the Bitcoin halving will come and that would be nice for them because than the value can rise.
And that is nice if they can make this year profit with Bitcoin.

I am sure the bitcoin price will rise to at least $800 by the end of the years. That is after the block size increase.

Everyone is hoping that the halving will be more worth and that is because you also can see now that the value is going to be more worth and it was already stable for a long time.
And that have to change because many people are waiting a long time until the value will be higher so the time must come soon.

Price is 'baked' in by now ...with ethereum and all the bitcoin core/classic FUD etc...BTC will stay in the $450 range (ie sideways) imho

NOT bad considering you can only mine 1/2 the BTC and have the same expenses...again imho

Bumper Sticker: "BTC confounding people since 2009!"

anyway again imho (hope I'm dead wrong and it pumps big time) but still.................

Bitcoin is good for the future is wat most people say but no one is really sure that the future is going to bring us what we really want with in Bitcoin. We just have to wait it out and see what is going to happen.

We can influence the future. As long as we develop it and promote it so there will be more users, the value will increase.

That's true and no one is sure what will be the exact scenario at the halving stage, but I am sure this halving will surely bring some best news for us.

The bitcoin price rose 5% in the last few days, that could be effect of the halving, but not very sure.

Actually now halving is coming so in this reason bitcoin's price is increasing, after 2 or 3 months, halving is coming and it is very profitable way, mostly people save their bitcoins because of increasing price and in this situation halving has a great part. actually i am still waiting for halving and i like it.

We have already started to feel the halving effect, look at the price now, its going higher and higher and it will reach to the top when we reach to halving.

Just another sig spam clones thread, and even hero got hooked...

yeah but i think this is only a very small part of the huge effect that halving can have on the price. this little rise is nothing compared to the big rise that i have in mind based on the big rally that can come with it.

The big rally will come after the block size increase. This debate has suppressed the price for the last 6 months.

Yeah I think halving will bring a good movement on the bitcoin market. I'm sure most bitcoin users are happy to hear about halving news and then they will buy bitcoin to invest it for a long term, also halving news will make people more interested to use bitcoin. In my opinion, bitcoin will still be mined because it's price will increase and won't effect the miners.

Yeah thats true, I see every one here are saving up for upcomming bitcoin halving. Its only 30 days left and i save up 0.05 only in my wallet, im saving up more to get 0.3 this month

It is really big impact particularly if the  demand increase and the minning of BITCON divided, the impact it will go rise more or else I'm wrong.  ;D

bitcoin halving will surely have a huge impact on the price, i hope it will be positive and i will earn money

ahmm I think supply and demand has a great factor why btc increases . Its like buying stocks that is ow I vission btc but after all we dont know what are the factors considered by the admin for the price hike or low

i hope that bitcoin price will rise a lot in the near future because of the upcoming halving, this would surely attract a lot of people to bitcoin

The more people are attracted to the bitcoin, the higher the price will be if more people use the bitcoin.

of course hikes will occur upon halving. as fewer supply bitcoin, will affect the amount of bitcoin on the market. and bitcoin will really become a powerful force.

That's true, present prise rise has drawn attention of many people towards it, and now they have started to show their interest in investing into it, which is a good sign for bitcoin community.

It is indeed very true  ;D, this is similar to previous years. Each halving the price definitely Bitcoin's getting high and everyone could benefit. This is the most exciting and beneficial for us. This might last only a short time, so don't waste this opportunity

Halving is coming soon and that can be nice for us because the price is already rising of Bitcoin so that would be nice for people who are holding it right now so that is really nice.
But you have to know that you are for sure that the value will rise and that is the bad thing of Bitcoin so you just have to wait and see for what will happen later in the future.

I am waiting for the halving to happen, what do you guys think that is going to happen after the halving with the price. Will it go up, will it go down or will it be stable?

Do you think this kind of threads will have an effect on bitcoin? I have seen a bunch of same thread created over and over again daily. Just wait for halving to happen and see how things will work out.

No the amount of these threads have no influence on the price. In essence the price currently is determined by supply and demand. And a group of whales.
The halving price is already set in if you ask me.

yeah i also notice this topic are very spammy thats why the reply and the opinion was already the same and this will not help for the price of bitcoin. waiting in halving is the best.
