Title: 26 days to the halving left, what are you expecting?
Post by: Eplus_Team on April 15, 2020, 02:49:02 PM
I think we all know that the halving will come in 26 days  ;D Im just wondering what are you thinking what impacts will the halving have?

Will nothing happen?
Will the price pump or dump?
Will the hashrate drop dramatically and delay block times?

I am quite sure will happen something and most likely it will positive. Because even during current global crisis btc showing positive movement right now. So we might expect a good positive movement before halving. But if its happen then there is chances of sudden dump after halving happened same like we have seen impact after and before forked. To be honest I am assuming current bitcoin volatility happening due to upcoming halving. Perhaps some clever investors or whales trying to accumulate some coins before next pump and that's why price playing between $7K to $6.5K. However, no one could say exactly what will happen, we need to wait realize it.

Today I'm looking forward to the market halving of the bitcoin because it has a different market movement from the previous weeks and months of the bitcoin and also I read a lot of articles, news, and comment from the different bitcoin enthusiast that the before of the end of the bitcoin it shows a good market income and by that, I'm looking forward to the bitcoin to make more earnings. Still, it depends on the market and the community of many people will support this we can now make a huge market profit but still it depends on you if you will continue to buy a lot of bitcoin.

To be honest I am expecting a pump probably everyone but I dont want to get my hopes high as the market is very volatile and we cant always foreseen a good outcome. This particulat event of halving that occured in the past marked certain changes and those changes is a good reference to stay positive. Yes there is global pandemic crisis that happening now and with expectation of some pump could be ambushed by more negative impact of this tragedy everywhere.

However, crisis or not, I believe investors are ready to ride with the surge that will come. But until it happens, we should just watch the charts movement and analyze whether we are going to a more bear or finally escaping it.

All of the answers for those question, no one can answer exactly. We are basing to the past and history of halvings that's why many are expecting for the price to surge after a couple of months when halving is done.
I'm also leaning towards that but it's a matter of patience and we'll see what the miners reaction after that.

1. People will be disappointed because they're expecting something super eventful.
2. The price will dumpdrop in the short term because of point #1.
3. Assuming point #2 happens, then probably. Miners who have thinner profit margins will be forced to turn off their miners.

Just my 2 satoshis. Not saying that this will surely happen, but it's just my rough guess.

First of all, are we sure that halving's in 26 days? I mean, I know it says so on countdowns on websites but I guess it's an estimation which might be a little off. But in any case, halving will happen somewhere in May which is quite soon. So what happens to the hashrate? I don't think the drop will be dramatic, and even if it happens, it's just a temporary thing. Speaking of the price, I'd refer to Antonopoulos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TiAPAYY0NA) who expects 'nothing much' to happen with the price. It makes sense to me, but if many people expect it to rise (and I guess it's the case), the price might indeed go up due to FOMO.

1. Yes, nothing big will happen. Just like the last times, nothing special happened on the halvening day itself.

2. Who knows, 24 days is a long time, the price can be thousands of dollars higher or lower than it is from now. We are in very turbulent times right now.

3. Maybe the hashrate will drop a bit, but I don't expect a dramatic drop, we don't know that exact cost of mining in different parts of the world, maybe even with halved reward many of them will still make profit.

I expect the drop of its price in the first day of halving. We may experience the increase a week or a month after halving .

Backing the price to 10k USD this year will enough for me no more other expectation that it may beat the last ATH we get in 2017.

I expect nothing big to happen after the halving date. We all judge and base our thoughts on what happened after the 12 and 16 halving. History is not repeating even though it rhymes, I believe Mark Twain said. Today's market is more mature than 16 and 12, thus I dont expect rapid moves up or down.
What I do expect is a steady upwards trend in the long term, simply because inflation is coming like a tsunami. I estimate that more than 20 Trillion USD will be printed during this crisis. Younger generations that recognize the utility of cryptos will be more positive towards BTC. And of course, some people must work hard to get the dollars that some other people print effortlessly.
That said, the price will go up in the long term.

I shared the same sentiments a few months ago, but the COVID-19 outbreak has thrown an enormous monkey wrench into the machine, and not I'm not sure at all that the halving is going to affect bitcoin's price.  I sort of think that if there were going to be an effect, it would already be reflected in the current price--but there's no way to know.

It'll definitely be interesting to see what transpires come May, but I'm not placing any large bets on the outcome and I don't have my hopes up for a huge price increase.

Nothing happens during halvings. If there is to be an effect it starts in the following year. However at the moment I have absolutely zero clue what the future holds. It could be a disaster. It could be business as usual much earlier than expected.

I think now we have more stable market than in the previous time. I think that halving will have some impact on prices but not as huge as many users expect. Defintely, it will be a measure of the crypto market's current state so that we will see if it's still young or not.

I sincerely do not expect a big price increase, with this pandemic and almost certain that we will see a small increase and price, something expected by many people. in any case I think it will touch $8000

My (largely unfounded) prediction is an anti-climax and some disappointed speculators who got their hopes up too soon.  No major moves in either direction in the short term.

No it isnt in exactly 26 days, more like 25-28 days, depends on the blocktimes. But we know its at block 630`000

Frankly speaking I expect nothing. Recently there were halvings of two bitcoin forks - price did not actually change, just made +5% and now the price is back to what it was before halving. Plus worlds economy is so much down, that it is not ready for big growth.

It seems like there is nothing special in handling this year because co-19 is the problem. If this pandemic does not occur, I think many people will expect halving this year.
Of course with halving that will occur in 26 days there must be a fairly stable market movement.
Pompaan definitely happen but (predictions) I will not penetrate the price of 10k.

Because currently it is an economic problem, halving may not be the main concern.

Well I think of the opposite mate, covid-19 surely brought a destruction to every market and caused a massive declines (not for chinese market) but I think there would be some bright places, limited bright places in the market that will make you gain unexpectedly. Pandemic is a problem, however the resistance from whales are stronger that the effect could not reach the worst of the scenario. 26 days are left for us to invest as much as we want, and I'll stick to the pattern, Bitcoin will soar this year if not $20,000 like ath maybe just a bit lower.

Pompaan definitely happen but (predictions) I will not penetrate the price of 10k.

We already reached the $10K this year, In fact the covid-19 is already present at that time in China and several cases around the world so I guess it would not be a problem at all.

Nothing. I expect nothing, honestly.

If I remember correctly, 2016's halving had just a little volatility followed up by nothing much. The real change will be seen 6-12 months post halving imo.

I don't know, just think about it logically - on halving day, will you move funds to buy/sell or just wait and see the block countdown to halving go to 0? I'm in the latter boat and I believe most are..

Yeah, the anticipated Bitcoin halving is hear upon us and I know everybody is anticipating huge gains but honestly speaking I don't think it the price of bitcoin will increase like it did back in the days. At least during those days economic production had not been slowed as things are now at the moment because of the spread of the virus. hopefully, our scientists will find a cure so that things can go back to normal.

The halving will lead to a rise in bitcoin but might not reach the peak of price that we most expected, main looking at it the year after halving is usually a huge increase in price for bitcoin,  I would not be surprised if such happens again as against next year,  we all saw what happened to Bch halving despite the whole hype it got.

I expect:
*Dissapointment, FUD, weak hands panic, sell-off, some turds spam the network to futher spread bearish sentiment, we touch the bottom, cheap coins, bulls return, bears BTFO, and then moon*
This could very well happen over the next 6-8 months. Source: trust me, bruh.

On a serious note, forget the halving...If by some miracle the global economy begins the recovery phase this very same year, expect BTC price to skyrocket like never before, tons of money waiting to enter crypto ecosystem, retail and big time investors are impatient.

Just please don't compare BCH with BTC. You are saying the halving "will" lead to a rise in price. How come you are so sure that it will cause the price to increase? If you are comparing it with the previous halving, then you probably are wrong. Look at the current situation. Lot of unexpected events are taking place and more are going to come. Look at the current economy. I doubt the price is going to increase, but who knows.

Why are you so concerned about the short-term price action OP?

Will it pump, will it dump? Does it really matter? If it dumps it's only going to be temporary.

If you want to make a quick buck you can try shorting the stock market. If the recession really hits it's going to fall even lower and these things always come like an aftershock of a big event. The economic shutdown was the event, now we're waiting for the shockwave to hit, starting from the poorest countries affected.

I am not hoping too much to the incoming halving due to the pandemic that we are currently facing right now because many small investors will likely to focus themselves on how to survive in this type of situation. So the demand will likely to remain for the big investors who have enough money to sustain their daily lives even in lockdown while putting a good amount of investment in bitcoin and other currencies.

Most likely the market will behave to what it is right now, it will increase a little then decrease a little also. But if this pandemic will be finish, I will be expecting a good come back to the market that will trigger the bull season but with regards to halving, the timing is not good so I am not expecting too much right now.

Some are quite excited about the upcoming halving because of the positive impact it may cause to the market, but for me, I don't wanna expect too much from it. Our world is currently experiencing crisis, many people are starving and some investors are/may be struggling with this situation. No one knows when will the vaccine will be made. But still, even if vaccine is to be made as soon as possible, many people will still focus their attention on how to come back to normal days where they have extra money to be used for investing.

Despite the fact that we are still affected by the pandemic, I think it could still affect the price positively in some way. It might increase but not that much and not that long considering people wanting to sell some of their bitcoins so they could provide for their family or themselves. I am expecting not that much but deep inside, even though it is not the same in the past's halvings, it will have the same result.

No-one knows for sure, but I expect the price to go up.

It's simple really, there is all that stimulus going on due to Covid-19 and then there is less newly minted supply.

We're really not ready for another bull-market but I see no reason why one couldn't just kick off.

As far as I'm concerned, for this halving, I'm not expecting so much effect for the next 5 months. Well! I'm not attributing this to the pandemic as a factor but Even before the virus outbreak must of us knew we can't get something much until the year end of the year.but one we know that with halving we have broken the bearish.its better one take more time to invest once it comes in and have the best at the bull.

No one really knows that's going to happened pre-halving. But if you go back to the last halving in 2016, the price drop 10% if I'm not mistaken on the day itself, but quickly bounce back. But we can't compare those previous halving, as obviously, many things have change, maybe we can witness some delay on the price increase because of the Covid-19. So many parameters to consider. As far as mining goes though, still the same 'Game Theory', honest miners will continue to secure the network, regardless of the hashrate, IMHO.

I don't think he is really concerned base on the topic he opened but do not be surprised that a lot of people are expecting are expecting a short-term pump since there's a lot of speculators here in the cryptocurrency space. To be honest, I don't really think a major pump would happen anytime soon. There's still a crisis happening right now and investors are still at stand-by by the time halving happens. Maybe we would see the affect after 5-10 months just like the 2016 halving.

As per the history, price should be pumped as after the halving the regular supply will be decreased huge. About the hashrate drop, I agree it may decrease for sometimes instantly after the halving because of rewards being halved but that will not be longer.

Yes, it's getting closer when halving occurs, even though market conditions are still not showing an increase. But I remain confident when halving
happens will have a positive effect. The price of bitcoin will rise, then it will be followed by other coins which will also go up. Despite the rise
in price of bitcoin may not reach all time high. Luckily I already bought bitcoin when the price of bitcoin dropped to $ 4000. So I am optimistic
when halving occurs can enjoy profit.

Halving may not immediately impact positively on the price of bitcoin. Currently, the market is under manipulation I am scared for people that will fall for price downtrend thinking bitcoin is correcting only to wake up and see they need to buy at a higher price.

it is impossible to predict in my opinion. under normal circumstances the halving itself is a hyped up event that will always lead to a rise, even a small one, in the market in short term during the 2 months period. but we are not in normal  circumstances at all. right now there is a lot of FUD going on and a lot of fear that is preventing any buys from taking place. on top of that the world economy is in a pretty bad shape and although bitcoin price only took effect for about a week but right now it is acting as some sort of preventing factor that is stopping the rise from starting.
with that said, all it takes for the FOMO to kick in and we see a gigantic rise is for one of the resistances to be broken then we see everyone rushing to buy and price can each something like $15k in about 2 or 3 days.

I read that halving should happen on May 13th. In the near future, because of this event, I do not expect anything too big. As the practice of the last two divisions shows, a good growth in the cryptocurrency market due to a decrease in the reward to miners by half for each new block mined occurs only during the year after that. So the increase in the price of bitcoin will be necessary, but not immediately.
Now, most likely, you need to watch how the price of bitcoin, and the entire cryptocurrency market, will react to the global economic crisis, which we have already begun to enter. Here the price can really start to rise.

From the reaction of the market so far I don't think we should be over optimistic and expecting a positive reaction form the market in the short run. The Corona virus fear can still be heavily felt among the community as the uncertainty of the economy of the world is making individuals to sell their assets forecasting more economical meltdown. I doubt nothing will happen since the philosophy of the market resolves around buying the rumors and selling the news. There's just two ways the market will react, that's price increase or decrease.

Irrespective of how the market reaction in the coming weeks, we should be rest assured that on the long run, the successful halving of the block reward if bitcoin will have a positive impact on the price of bitcoin.

Nothing special is going to happen. No sudden pump, but It could fall again. I dont think whales are gonna do something about it because everyone is expecting a good price. This event will turn the investors into a disappointment, thus it might cause a slight drop of price, which is actually happening right at this moment.
I might say, bull run might happen next year or the 4th quarter of this year. The market movements doesn't seem interesting for the optimistic people these days.

More Miners going Bankrupt ,

Bitmain will most likely activate those hidden ASICS , not yet sold and keep hashrate near the normal.

Bitmain has been playing the world for fools for years.



If they have "hidden" asics why would the wait for the halving to turn them on?

Well Bitmain lost alot of market share since they started joining the BCHABC team, their Pool has currently 12% of the btc hashrate

Maybe a speculative pump to 8000+ before the halving followed by a dump post halving & then a slow climb to over 1000 by the end of 2020.

The real fun will come in 2021.

I dont have high expectation in the coming halving especially there's an on going problem and most countries are affected. Halving might affect the market just like what happened in the past but still there's no assurance the history will repeat itself.

Im not holding my bitcoin and alts for short term so whatever the outcome of this halving its fine for me since I have no plans of selling it unless the price reach my target price.

If you're a long term hodler then dont worry if the market is in bearish status even after the events this year that can trigger the price to increase. There's more room for development so we should look forward for it and be optimistic.

Im still bullish in Bitcoin despite the Economic CRISIS that some people say could affect Bitcoin. If you look at the technicals especially in onchain analysis like what MMcrypto discuss in his YouTube channel. We can see that most investors are pessimist and already capitulated thus making the price overly sold.
But despite all this no one really knows, we could see some huge fireworks or maybe not in the upcoming Halving.

I’m expecting a positive effect but not much on the price because it takes time. The hype for halving is not that huge, better no to expect too much from it. The halving will be big, but base on history we need more time for a big pump. Let’s hope for the best but if bitcoin fails and goes dipper, better to ready your cash to buy bitcoin.

Maybe a speculative pump to 8000+ before the halving followed by a dump post halving & then a slow climb to over 1000 by the end of 2020.

The real fun will come in 2021.

Probably you mean slow climb to 10,000 by year end and not 1000  :o
Last time the real pump came after 1.5 year after the halving. So keeping the same calculations we will have same pump in December 2021 ?  By the way, everyone is hoping for this so maybe whales have different plan this time around ?

Will nothing happen?
Will the price pump or dump?
Will the hashrate drop dramatically and delay block times?
Well I really don't see much things happening after the halving. The whole world is still on hold trying figure out the better vaccine for covid19 pandemic.
The price won't pump that much as expected. There will be a little bit increase.
Can't ascertain to that but let's be hopeful that everything will align together for good afterwards

I have been waiting for the halving to come ever since last year when I have know that thet halving event will come to happen by this year 2020 at the month of May. The year 2020 have started with a good start wherein the prices of the cryptocurrencies specially Bitcoim have rise up which have reach $9,000+ by the end of the month of January. In that case, I have already high hopes for the upcoming halving all because the prices of the cryptocurrencies have risen up even halving was months away to happen. But then this pandemic happened which results to have negative impact even to the cryptocurrency industry. Actually, at this point of time, I am still hoping for a pump to come with this halving event but I really don't know if it will happen because the pandemic is still on and the whole world market is still affected by this. Let us just all hope that everything will be doing fine when the halving have come.

I guess this upcoming Bitcoin halving will be the most hot topics this month or maybe even next month. Will some people do expect a quick recovery like a quick bull run but that isn't how halving works since after the halving there is still not that much of a change of price not unless someone manipulated the market. If you based the previous halving to the upcoming halving I'm sure you will understand how the market supposed to be working when there is a halving.

I don't want to expect a big thing this year. Just look at the current situation and the characteristic of crypto market. We are in a bad situation because of virus and we still don't know when it will be over. This surely brings impacts to crypto market and halving as well. And we all know that most investors or traders have already understood very well about crypto, they won't do anything based on HYPE. Moreover, according to the previous halving, the big increase on Bitcoin price happens in the next year, it means in 2021.

True, this has been seen from the increase in searches with the keyword "bitcoin halving" on google trends (https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=bitcoin%20halving&geo=US)
We also have to understand this situation. In the previous halving period, the pump does not happen instantly, but it requires a process, up and down, until the expected moment. We must really understand this situation so as not to FOMO and get caught up in losses.

Nothing special is going to happen. No sudden pump, but It could fall again. I dont think whales are gonna do something about it because everyone is expecting a good price. This event will turn the investors into a disappointment, thus it might cause a slight drop of price, which is actually happening right at this moment.
I might say, bull run might happen next year or the 4th quarter of this year. The market movements doesn't seem interesting for the optimistic people these days.
I also foresee that there will be no special that is going to happen, I managed my expectation very well and that is why I speculate that the price will remain to its current price or maybe it will drop more. There are a lot of people who expect that the price will rise after the halving but for me it will not going to happen because we are still facing a crisis. There are a lot of speculation around this forum and around the internet, they do not managed their expectations very well because they expect too much.

In my personal opinion, if the quarantine continues, if more cases of COVID-19 continue to be generated, there will not be a significant movement in the market, since investors, speculators will remain out of the market, since panic is a big Fundamental.

In this Bitcoin market, I think the price will not move as much as many believe it can.

Will nothing happen?
Will the price pump or dump?
Will the hashrate drop dramatically and delay block times?
Volatility of market will decide about all this,because there might another manipulation again?or there were some stupid decisions from the Holders anything is possible so lets see what  comes next.

With the economic crisis, nobody know what will happen this coming halving. We cannot expect something same as the past halving because the pandemic changed the whole course of the market. However, remember how crypto atarted, it started when the market crashed in U.S. and no one knows what will happen this halving.

Although I am expecting to see a big explosion on bitcoin price before or after bitcoin halving, I doubt that it will happen so soon because bitcoin still collecting more supports to raise the price. Perhaps, it will occur after the halving happens, and it might come like what we saw before. But the chance to see the highest price will be there as I see that many people make their own prediction on how higher bitcoin can increase. Perhaps, the price will still up and down like what we see now, or maybe the price will go up and break every high price level first and stable at $10k or $12 or $13. After that, the altcoin will get their turn to increase higher, and the second wave of bitcoin will happen, and it will grow so high. But once again, that will be a prediction which we don't know if that will happen or not.

I think this topic will belong to the speculation board.

Yeah, we are near to this next Bitcoin block halving and everyone was excited to see the result. I'm kinda thinking positive here, why?
Now, look at it. If you will trace back the previous result of the Bitcoin block next halving, it gives massive increased after a few months right after it has successfully occurred. The first and second showed a good result so, at this third time, I also expected the same situation will happen.

But we will see to it, it really hard to predict the market movement even though this Bitcoin halving event is near to come.
As of now, it is 25 days more left. https://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/

Remember the previous halving did not face such tight conditions worldwide, the current situation of the virus is directly or indirectly affecting the economy so that makes it more difficult to say what will happen in this upcoming halving, it could be that price will rise or still remain the same, but my point is the situation of covid-19 could affect the price.

The market has been fluctuated since the beginning of this year and we should be more concern about the positivity of the market recovery after which we can discuss about the Bitcoin halving. That be said, this Bitcoin halving should be see as a means of global adoption and not that of the formal, which was known to be a "get rich quick" by members and investors. For those who are thinking about another all time high might be disappointed because the momentum of this year halving is totally different from the last that happened. Though, profit is one thing that's important during this period.

Same, bitcoin halving is an unusual case, and recent halving still results in pumping. Let's hope it happens again because I'm saving a lot of bitcoin right now and just waiting for this pump. $10k isn't unlikely because the last time it already reaches $9k but COVID-19 appears and it's going to send a metric of downfall.

Even though we don't have proof that it will pump, I still have faith and being optimistic on the current situation of the market.

I expected a lot from Bitcoin this year, but things never go as you expect them to and the same is happening now. Before the pandemic had spread I was expecting Bitcoin to easily touch 10k but now I doubt it will happen.

If this pandemic is not controlled sooner then after halving I Bitcoin will dive down to 3k. It is still struggling to hold 7k at the moment and I am pretty much convinced that till halving it will hover around the present region.

there are no big impact so far as we look at the market now though staying at 7k$ level and this is enough to be contented so far.

there is already happening mate,Look at the market and you will see the answer.

either what happen is not yet confirmed  because unstable market is what we have now.

It's all right, I don't think it's worth worrying about right now.

You're right mate, this has.nothing to be worry about because things are changing for the betterment of those who hold up their bitcoin for a long-term. For those who bought at the very dewo of $3800 and $6420 will be more lucky for a long-term holding as the cryptocurrency revive itself. Particularly, am holding right away and not ready to sell off my portfolios. Am expecting more move from Bitcoin during the pre-halving and higher during the post-halving so, for those who are yet to buy, kindly secure your chance now because we're going to boom in my opinion.

I'm thinking about a pump early this year as the market shows a positive look at the start but something it is impossible to happen as we are facing the crisis today. 26 days (left) isn't enough to see a bullish if the market trend goes like this. Maybe we have to accept and might this halving isn't really creating a bullish unlike the previous halving did.

But anyway, I'm so glad to see Bitcoin's prices seem in a good position. Though altcoins suffer a huge dump but I'm not thinking that it worsens as halving has to finally at its launch. Instead, it could some way to uplift their current market situation.

Right good decision for them if they still hold up and doesn't even get panic with the several dumps happening in the market since might provably they can earn more when the block halving is closer to be happen, And I have a great feeling that we will see a good pump coming especially if the Covid-19 will be controllable and majority of people will come back to join the block party.

I hope bitcoin price is always up and pull many new investors. Because it is the key for bitcoin miner still open their mining rig. I just thinking if there is no change for bitcoin price, it mean bitcoin price never reach $9000 price then there won't be any miner who keep mining bitcoin. The mining dificulity will increase and it means they should be upgrade their system in order to be able to mine. I ever read as well an article that the cost electricity to mine bitcoin it will increase around $3000-$5000 per months. Just imagine if bitcoin price didn't increase maybe the miner will leave immediately.

I believe bitcoin in the long run is going to do very well.

However, with the halving coming i do not see it initially increasing the value of bitcoin at all. Miners are barely breaking even at this point, and there is currently VERY BIG motivation for them to short bitcoin and then completely dump their share onto the market. If miners got together to do this they could potentially create a bit of a snowball if weak hands started to sell off.

So they short the bitcoin price. Dump their bitcoin. Price drops. They buy back in low buying even more than before as support builds.

If big mining pools do this in unison it could have a knock on affect and push bitcoin down to USD $3-3500.

I still have no clue what the actual result will be, it is all speculation. However if you are assuming BTC will pump after the halving, put in 20% of what you want to and if it drops buy more in steps if the price does continue to fall. In the long run bitcoin has a long way to go yet before it reaches saturation.

We are still in the dial-up era of internet for crypto. It is still very early days.

Cheers and good luck.

I think this year's Halving may be a little different, we've always seen Bitcoin do a lot of pumps after Halving, but to me it seems like this year Bitcoin will not do as big a pump. And Covid-19 can have some effect on it, because people are in the midst of panic now so nobody wants to die leaving their investments in the virtual world, because no big pump is expected to come out. It could just be my personal opinion, but vice versa.

I think it's priced in by now, we saw the price jump from high 3's to now $7,100, I don't think we will see a massive jump quickly.
Well it is possible though, from core of speculation we can really achieve an easy jump price especially people these days are very optimistic with the upcoming halving event. The price today may be disappointing, but don't get that wrong, the time to invest is now actually the best time when the halving is 3 weeks far we can totally get what we wanted with so much speculation and whales movement.

From the current jump we have in the price of bitcoin, what I expect to happen is another jump. I am not expecting too much but it will probably bring a positive effect to bitcoin. But there is still this doubt that I have due to the pandemic that we are facing right now, I know it is not affected but investors around the world might have a hard time investing this time. It is possible that the price increase will be slower than expected.

I am hoping there is an uptrend but after reviewing past bitcoin halving, the price does not go up automatically,  Often about 150 days after halving the price will go up. I hope it is the same this time in 2012 halving from $12.35 on Halving Day goes to $127.00 after 150 Days that's is a huge increase in price. I guess thinking negative things does not help this time so we need to be positive about it even we are in crisis now.

IMO, bitcoin on that year wasn't really popular and only the market people are the ones who adapt its early stage. Now, there are many users and investors of bitcoin now, I guess it will not take a lot of days to gain its pump after bitcoin halving. I'm sure 100% that it will give a wonderful hike on the market and I'm fine with it even it's not a huge pump.

Hello everybody. The most important thing that I expect is a strong manipulation of the price of Bitcoin, many here expect a strong price increase. My opinion is that the price will reach both the lowest prices, and so will conquer the highest heights. We live in a very good time - there are no rules, as in the wild west, it is in such times that either everything is lost or huge fortunes are made. Now you just need to accumulate this asset, use any purchase opportunity at a lower price. You don’t have to be a very learned person to understand a simple thing, - the reward will be reduced by half to the miners, the main producers of this asset, then sooner or later there will be a good price increase, we all need to be patient.

I am planning to hold those bitcoins I bought for long term investment, as I am expecting after the halving event, the price of bitcoin will have a high chance to rise because the bitcoin miners will have lesser amount of bitcoins to sell on the crypto-currencies trading market with the bitcoin mining rewards reduced by half.

I think Bitcoin will show some surprises this year, because after every halving, the price of Bitcoin skyrocketed, and so many Bitcoin users have been able to understand in the last 8-12 years, and it is probably the 3rd halving of Bitcoin so those who missed the previous two halving. They will not want to miss this opportunity, which is why I am hopeful that the price of Bitcoin will skyrocket again. But in some days the price will drop but later the price will go up which we have seen before.BTC

We should use this time to saving more and more bitcoin while we still have time to do that because when the price starts to increase, we will miss the chance of saving bitcoin or perhaps, we are not late to do that, but we need to pay more than the price now.

Perhaps, after Covid-19 ends, the crypto market will start to recover because that chance will be bigger to see it will happen. After all, people can do many things they like without stay at home again.

For me, I'm still expecting that the price of Bitcoin will increase as the halving comes near but not that much. I don't want to expect too much now that there is a global pandemic that is happening.

In one video of Andreas Antonopoulos, he said that he doesn't know either what will happen to the price of Bitcoin because many are asking him what will happen to Bitcoin and its price after halving. I think we must think the same too that lets not expect something about it. Lets just be ready in whatever happens in Bitcoin after halving. If it goes up then good for holders and some traders but if it goes down then still good for those who want to accumulate more.

As halving comes many of us had the expectation that price of bitcoin may experience of increased once again. But their is still the possibility price may sudden dump and won't increase different to what we expect for us to earn profit. Whatever maybe the outcomes of bitcoin price this coming halving, let's be positive that we could still earn and if no increase happen lets accept the fact that crypto market has it's volatility and has the unstable price.

At least they should have been our initial though, we need to see the price hits 5 digit again and then we will see how it will go. Because if we hit that magic number of $10k, there will be FOMO fuel again and push the price even further. So this is what people are expecting this coming halving, just a couple of weeks now. Others are excited by there are people who chooses to stay calm and see what it will bring, but I'm sure everyone is hoping for the 5 digit at least.

Either good or bad, this halving would give a direction to the bitcoin project. Bitcoin hash power has always been on increase. With current price and bitcoin halving, many of personal miners would go on loss as reward decreases. Either the hash power needs to decrease or the price needs to increase over 10K for the profit/cost to be whole number.

Nothing happens during halvings. If there is to be an effect it starts in the following year.
Just exactly on what I thought. Well based from history, changes follow up the next year after the halving occur. What really certain right now is that we are totally clueless, zero ideas what possible circumstances might occur right away the halving specially in this time of crisis. Though there are too much hype with the incoming but that doesn't mean everything would go upward, people have prepared a long time before halving.

Nothing happens during halvings. If there is to be an effect it starts in the following year.
Just exactly on what I thought. Well based from history, changes follow up the next year after the halving occur. What really certain right now is that we are totally clueless, zero ideas what possible circumstances might occur right away the halving specially in this time of crisis. Though there are too much hype with the incoming but that doesn't mean everything would go upward, people have prepared a long time before halving. Anyway, with the current market approaching the day everyone were looking for, as I see market would stay stagnant at $7k till that day, no suprising pump.

The rapid growth in price occurs after the bitcoin halving as shown by graphs after last two halving but the period before halving is also characterized by gradual increase. Bitcoin has rarely decreased in price before the first two halvings, so the situation now is a bit different but bitcoin at the moment is in increasing trend and I believe it would continue even to and after the halving.

I think we all know that the halving will come in 26 days  ;D Im just wondering what are you thinking what impacts will the halving have?
sure there will be impact but maybe will not take effect instantly .
Will nothing happen?
of course there is.
Will the price pump or dump?
may Pump if pandemic is gone,but may dump if not happen.
Will the hashrate drop dramatically and delay block times?
No its not but what will happen is depend on what the market stands when halving happens in May so lets wait until it happens.

I supposed to think about Bullish during halving but I feel it is a hard way to find this time. We find it has less chance for the market to surge high, not really this coming halving but maybe we can have it months after. Even we fail to have Bullrun this year, I'm still not in the urge to become disappointed, not really it was because we know how pandemic it affects the market that has to put into big consideration.

I am hoping the price of bitcoin would soar past $10,000 USD again after the halving event, I bought some bitcoins last month when the price of bitcoin crashed below $5500 USD. I am planning to hold those bitcoins I bought for long term investment, as I am expecting after the halving event, the price of bitcoin will have a high chance to rise because the bitcoin miners will have lesser amount of bitcoins to sell on the crypto-currencies trading market with the bitcoin mining rewards reduced by half.

At least they should have been our initial though, we need to see the price hits 5 digit again and then we will see how it will go. Because if we hit that magic number of $10k, there will be FOMO fuel again and push the price even further. So this is what people are expecting this coming halving, just a couple of weeks now. Others are excited by there are people who chooses to stay calm and see what it will bring, but I'm sure everyone is hoping for the 5 digit at least.

Either good or bad, this halving would give a direction to the bitcoin project. Bitcoin hash power has always been on increase. With current price and bitcoin halving, many of personal miners would go on loss as reward decreases. Either the hash power needs to decrease or the price needs to increase over 10K for the profit/cost to be whole number.
There would be significant effect when it talks of miners since we know that block reward would be cut in half but i dont see the reason that this will be enough for most of them to completely stop operating.
There might be some changes but wont really be that noticeable or big when it comes to hash rate thing.In talks about price increase then we cant still be sure yet if we would break ath or even reach once again
on $15k level or onwards.It is much more preferable if we do saw a gradual phase of increase than on having a short or immediate spike.We do know on what comes next in case if that thing do happen.

We can already see a change in the price of bitcoin. Earlier the price of bitcoin dumped  to $5k due to the pandemic but since then bitcoin has recovered quite a little. The price has crossed $7k which is a significant growth right before the halving even.
I do believe that the price will increase a little more before the halving occurs and probably cross $9k.

I think a lot of people that expect the price to skyrocket will be disappointed and there may be not quiet price surge at the period people are expecting due to the halving. However, I am very certain some miners will stop mining due to unprofitability while some that can afford and pay less for electricity will increase their mining farm.

only for the price to gradually rise and some miners shutting their operation down. I suggest don't expect too much since it will only disappoint you like a lot of people in the previous halvings expecting for the price to suddenly skyrocket after a week or a month after the halving happened.

So far after the crash we witnessed in the market we have seen a recovery and now we are above 7k, however we are lacking any kind of momentum, it is very difficult to pump the price higher than what it is already when everyone is still worried about the lasting economic effects the corona virus is going to have over the economy of the world, so at least to me it does not seem like this is the best moment to see a pump in the price of bitcoin, but bitcoin has surprised me before and I could be completely wrong in my analysis.

It will pump in price but this infectious coronavirus disease is trying to make the price and situation drag down. This halving is supposed to be a golden time for bitcoin to skyrocket and make investors and holders happy. May be, the price will later pick and go above $9,000 but am sure it will not dump below $6,000.

The expected rise got interrupted by the pandemic virus, most of the traders / investors thinks that this coming halving is the spark plug to kicked out the bear since in the beginning of this year everything is moving smoothly bringing good start for the bull to bounce back. But because of this virus the economic crisis also affected crypto nobody knows what will happen after this halving hopefully vaccine already available from that time.

Im exptecting that btc price will be the same right after the halving. And we will see growth later, maybe at summer

You get it correct, the Bitcoin halving as we have seen so far, it price is likely to shoot after the Bitcoin halving, that's the to say; a post bitcoin halving. This will be the good thing about Bitcoin. Although we have see some improvement in the price increase of Bitcoin today, this might be the golden bitcoin halving which is today. I can still vividly remember that, post Bitcoin halving is always good for long-term investors and traders who don't panic during the pre-bitcoin halving. We should expect better days ahead as we draw close to Bitcoin halving.

I have always thought that the price would go way up during a halving but history has proved not so. It does make more sense to go up and since bitcoin has been around quite some time I think this halving will effect the price more than the previous ones. If the price does drop though I think it would be the best time to buy more bitcoin. I see most are with me on this.

During the halving meaning what? 1 day before and 1 day after?

It went up after each halving but needed a few weeks before it became clearly visible. It happened faster after the first halving and slower after the second. If we follow the same path it may even take a year before we see a new ATH but it will happen.

At this moment it's really quite hard to explain. The hole world is suffering and everyday people getting more worried about their personal/financial life. I saw there are many projects stop their working because of corona from past months. People just want to be safe with their family. So in this situation it's tough to say anything about btc halving. But in my thought if corona situation over upcoming three months then btc price will be rise dramatically, otherwise nothing big will happen i guess.

Looking for a Bullish market to appear during the Halving is totally out from reality. I know it wasn't sure about that but if we tale a look closely to the market movement, we can tell that there is no such play at all. I'm wondering where whales have to go this time, I miss them actually. Many people had hated them but they seem helping the market to move high just like what they did last 2017 Bullrun. Their market participation has a huge market effect and it was making the recovery slower than we ever think.

Because seeing the market now has not changed much, bitcoin prices are still stable. There is no sign yet that bitcoin prices will
pump.Though halving will happen a few weeks from now. But I'm still optimistic that bitcoin will pump, at least to the price of $10k.

Let's talk about the facts we know.

Bitcoin miners are currently receiving 12.5 Bitcoins per successful block produced. Which would translate to roughly $87 000 if they were to instantly sell the Bitcoins at the current price ($7000) at the time of this post (April 20, 2020).

Let also take into consideration the costs of mining. One article states that miners roughly spend $4500 in costs per 1 BTC mined. So their total cost of producing a new block would come to $56 250 with the
total earnings of $87 000. The end result is $30 750 profits.

Current reward: 12.5 Bitcoins
Total earnings: $87 000
Total cost: $56 250
Profit: $30 750

Now fast forward to halving. The cost of producing a new block is still the same, but the reward is cut down in half to 6.25 Bitcoins. Let's calculate.

New reward: 6.25 Bitcoins
Total earnings: $43 500
Total cost: $56 250
Profit: $-12 750



It is quite clear that Miners will have absolutely no intention in selling BTC at the current price of $7000 as they will go into a loss.
They have to start selling the BTC at a higher price otherwise it does not make sense for them to mine in the first place.


PS. even if the costs of producing a block are lower than I mentioned, miners would still report a profit loss due to reward halving. To compensate for the reward halving, they have to start selling at higher price.

Just because recently trend hasn't been all happy and dandy doesn't mean halvening will randomly not have the impact it has repeatedly had in the past. It may not inmediately go up, but in about a year's time we're sure to see at least a whiff of a decent bull run once again, and that's just following past trends, sure we didn't have covid back then, but we have it now and bitcoin has sorta held its ground, and the few months before the halvening are ALWAYS flakey times.

Well, I also hope that bitcoin will have more pumps to generate more profits for users but the real story is that as you said, the signal appears to be not too much, a certain force has prevented signs of bitcoin, forcing bitcoin to move sideways while the event is very near, a situation where investors need to be cautious in their decisions. Sensing that risk, my hope has never been accompanied by such a big bet, it is always within the allowed range, instead of all in one as many people are doing, it's too dangerous when we can lose everything

I hope that also but I don't expect more pumps since the pandemic still on which contributes the major recession happening right now and we still don't know this will end next month since if the disease will still occur and the experts will not find a cure provably we will not see some good figures coming with bitcoins.

Even if the costs are $0 and electricity is free, during halving your profits are still cut in half. That was my point.

Like @Qcrypto said, history says it all that halving causes the price to go way up.

It wouldn't make sense if you are looking forward to the crashing of price after halving. If you are a BTC investor, you'd be looking to see the price to go way up, maybe double til the ATH again. The lesser the supply means miners will consider selling their coins for the higher prices.

We need to remember that in both the previous occasions (2012 and 2016), there was no major spikes immediately following the block reward halving. The prices began appreciating some 7-8 months after the event and reached ATH almost 1.5 years later. I am not saying that the same will repeat this time, but just remembering everyone that in the past this is what happened.

The way I’m seeing it, maybe nothing will happen immediately after the halving. The price might still continue to be stable or maybe go up a bit, but it’s likely going to take more than this year before the price will go for a bull run. I don’t know if you have taken your time to go through what happened after the last Halving in 2016. Don’t forget that the last bull run we had was in 2017, that means the bull run didn’t start immediately the halving took place, it took sometime before it all happened.

I don’t know if the same thing is going to be happening or maybe not. A lot of people have predicted that 2020 is going to be the year for bull run, so I don’t know about this for sure, whether now is going to be different. What you least expect that happens.

I think it's a rough eastimation not a real cost. Maybe they calculated it based on the cheapest power some Chinese miners have  ???

I've read many other estimates that gave a much higher cost of mining and came to a conclusion that everythiung below 5000 dollars would already put most miners out of business.

Profitable mining is depending on the cost of power somewhere between 5000 and 6000 dolllars. I guess at this moment with price at 4000 there's not a miner in the world that wouldn't be mining at a loss.

It's very difficult to predict about halving because the world is getting stack day by day but there is no positive signal about any positive steps against Coronavirus so people are becoming workless and they will start very soon to withdraw their saving money for their daily life so it's very certain that We are getting another recession in the coming days so at this moment It can't be said that Bitcoin price will rise again in the Halving, but from the previous experience says that When people can't work at outside home then they should e depended online platform and there is a little chance to make this crypto world again greater, either this system will get developed or it will face a terrible threat because no one assume what will happen in the coming days.

As time passes and the price of bitcoin increases it makes sense that we will see more time between the bull markets, however the corona virus has added a variable that was not present before, the world economy is in complete chaos and everyone is trying to figure out a way to make the economy work under the current conditions, and while bitcoin should do well over the long term it is doubtful we are going to see a bull market during this year when most economies of the world will contract and many jobs will be lost.

Hello, given the recent halving (bitcoin cash) hoping that in the long run it is possible to touch higher prices, obviously it is my personal assumption that the BTC slowly becomes more and more difficult and less profitable for the miners makes me think that the price could go up. We will know soon.

That is right we should not get easily hype, there are people who think that the price will skyrocket after halving but for me it is impossible. In the recent halving, the prices rises but tit takes weeks and even months. Today is different because there is still crisis out there so I think the price will not skyrocket even the halving became successful. The halving is near and we should create different contingency plan for us to become prepared to handle different scenarios.

I think that halving will not immediately affect the price of Bitcoin, because the market will remain the same offer of coins. But over time, the price should rise, because the mining will become more expensive...
Although on halving day there can be manipulation and volatility on the exchanges.

But the hashrate can really fall, because the small miners will start to be disconnected from the network.

i read a piece somewhere were analyst are expecting the price of btc during this halving to go as high as $20k, speculative and a possibility because of the crash in oil, probably some people might want to make a different choice of investment, but with this current situation, will people rush in to invest or they will want to wait for the pandemic crisis to be over and there is normalcy in the economy!
anyways, am just looking forward to halving, hoping for the best and expecting a no rise in price situation.

I guess we could have bet on the buying of more bitcoins Or loads of investment in the cyrpto world if current pandemic wouldnt have been there.

I have gradually started thinking there wont be much difference this halving. I have myself posted earlier that the prices could go sky-rocket but now since the situation is worsening more, the balance just tipped over i believe.

It will stake nearly 9K-10K max if situation kept worsening then lets be ready for big drop.

Yeah the situation would have been much better supposing there were no pandemic to hinder growth in price, unfortunately that's not the case,
although i heard vaccines are available and schedule for testing in the UK and other affected countries,
i think soon the curve will be flatten, people will be out of danger, and things will gradually shape back into normal, economy will slowly recover,
all this will happen after the halving most probably, so maybe price will spike towards end of year, this are just probability, not real facts.

Lol! Eplus_Team you are very funny, your yardstick of measuring the type Analyst and their speculative post is very direct ;D I can relate to your point tho, it is important to be careful with speculation, I think most people are not too sure if btc price will rise or fall due the Corona virus outbreak, the world is in the middle of a crisis, the economy has been shut down, nothing is moving for now, except btc for this few days, so probably there will be some price movement.

Hard to answer since people in this crisis situation will choice to keep their money, investing might be far from their mindset as the crash from the economy due to this pandemic virus relly affecting everyones decision making.
Currently there's a good run from the market this expected halving is bringing good movements.
That is the problem I have with the idea of a bull run happening now, many people have lost their jobs and even more people are worried about losing their jobs in my country and that is not really an environment that could lead us for the price of bitcoin to go up, and while I think bitcoin is a store of value the crisis we are facing is not monetary in nature, instead it is a health crisis and in this case the possibilities we are going to see a sharp increase in the price of bitcoin are limited.

20k is a big margin in my opinion and more over these so called analysts just give a speculation which was never a valid one, and yes I agree this pandemic has caused big disappointment for everyone across the world but we have to face the consequences. After looking at the price of BTC from the past week it lookalike the price will go up...

10k is the most feasible price that bitcoin will accumulate for me considering that we are already at the 7700$. And we all know that every halving there's a huge pump that is going to happen, if you see the chart and search about the past halving you will see that every halving, there's a pump! So i hope this time history will repeat itself so all of us are going to have a profit  ;D Let's wish for the best! But I am sure that it will surpass 10k  ;D

i have waiting this time 2 year and keep holding all my BTC for the biggest price after halfing time.
i really hope end of 2017 can replay again, i don't have any idea to trading BTC because my trading skill is so bad so i just wait the best time to sell it and keep holding it.

I'm expecting it to follow the previous trend seen the last two times;

* Small pump in the leadup
* Small dump straight after the halving
* Large pump in the 1-2 years post halving
* Large crash in the 2 years to the 4th halving

With the current situation, one cannot be sure of anything , the price of Bitcoins is a little volatile , halving over the past years has been a positive event but we have never yet seen Halving at the time of a pandemic.

I do think Halving won't affect the Bitcoins much , it would just be a normal event . One cannot expect Bitcoins to shoot up when the investors themselves are in a dire situation .

Even if halving will increase the price people will encash as soon as possible .

I still hold my negative view of bitcoin halving this year. I suspect this is the biggest trick in history and many people will have to lose big in 2020 when constantly fomo bitcoin halving!
An economy is severely hurt and inflation risks are increasing. The whales will try to find a way to kill the small fish and take all their money to invest in good but cheap stocks. Most of us also want to make money in this market and use real money to invest in real value assets. So do the whales, so be careful in this bull run.

I do not expect it to reach the ATH. To repeat 2017, so many people of the world would have to invest. The big mass of people have already bought and sold again because of the dropping prices and disappointing feelings they had.

So you cannot have a 2nd big fomo like in 2017 if it has already happened once. There can now only be another huge investment round if Bitcoin or an altcoin develops in such a way that it is very practical, very safe and cheap to use. And if people have a reason to doubt the existing economy due to the effects of the corona virus for example.

The halving event can add fuel to that but not much I think. Because many have either already invested or do not believe in it anymore.

Before the lock down due to corona outbreak I have high hopes that the halving was going to make the Bitcoin price skyrocket again but now I think it would be impossible.
More people are striving to survive so most of the low and minimum wage earner investors would stay out right now and focus on what they need to survive and we couldn't afford to invest right now even if we wants to.
So I guess it would be hard to have some high hopes right now but I am guessing that there would still be some price increase due to halving.

This will make way more sense than what many people are proposing, it seems that everyone is expecting that the price is going to pump just right after the halving but when I see something like that I cannot avoid thinking that the whales are going to take advantage of this, deceive everyone in the process and finally create a small crash in the market to get all the money of those people that are going long on bitcoin while using too much leverage.

Personally, there will be a great positive movement during this Bitcoin halving as we have seen during the crisis caused by coronavirus pandemic. Many market went down including the oil market but the cryptocurrency market stood firm and fight along the crisis, with this, am very convince that the market will experience pump as usual. Few weeks ago, Bitcoin price crossed $9k and above which mean that, the market will take a positive turn after the bitcoin halve. Am hoping for a long-term rise in price which is more better than short-term pump.

However, I would like to ask, what did you see in the last bull run compared to the current that you think this year seems more real?

As any Bitcoiner out there, I'm pretty much excited to meet this year's halving because I feel that there would be a positive opportunity for everyone. Well everyone is looking forward to gather coins and buy, and probably invest and sell so for sure, its price might be well for us to give our attention to. Though we still have this pandemic, I think Bitcoin halving can survive well and people can bring huge impact as well from patronizing the halving.

Definitely something positive must always happen during the event and with this event many will be fortunate for the event to get some tangible result. The price is sure to skyrocket from what we use to see from the past to another new all time high. There's something that's common with the event which is a dump and a pump. These two are to be mindful when the price reachings a higher level. The price of Bitcoin has been moving positively which is a prebitcoin halving price.

Just 8 days remain for the block reward halving and I am getting more and more skeptical with every passing day. The prices have risen by 20% during the last couple of weeks. But I was expecting a more long-lasting spike before the reward halving. And another thing is that the volumes have remained at low levels and there seems to be a lack of enthusiasm in the market.

Sounds like its your first halving :>, its not first one to me.
What happened? Priced in way before, so no sudden change in price or anything spectacular. Day like any other.
Hashrate can drop for a while, nothing serious tho.

Perhaps, the majority of the community right here in cryptocurrency are expecting good after the bitcoin halving.
Based on what I saw and observed, mostly after halving the price of Bitcoin usually gets higher in the market at the value,
we didn't expect to be happen. BUt of course let's what's gonna be happen for these things.

Quite honestly this was to be expected, many people want to see a bull run and it is not as if I do not understand why but at the same time we are in the middle of a crisis in which tens of millions of people around the world have lost their jobs in a matter of months, the economies of the world are going to contract, the stock market crashed and most likely this is only the beginning so it will be kind of illogical for cryptocurrencies to grow up in value that much.

7 Days left until the great bitcoin halving!

According to some articles, the ATH of the hash rate is 140 exahash per second in mining. So I guess the bitcoin pump will occur this 2020 after the bitcoin halving. There are 2 factors that you must now have faith in BTC's surge, first is the hash rate which is obviously increasing then the BTC's price.

Even we're on a crisis, BTC already manages to climb up in 9k peak. So at some point, BTC's surge is still possible.

This time, am not expecting much from this bitcoin halving like before, reason be that, many of these expectations had been speculatives and at the end nothing hype was achieved. Many with much expectations were victims of the bitcoin halving as many hold onto their portfolios too long and before they could remember the market price, the halving was already done and gone. Let's be more less expecting this time and be very vigilante when the market fully ripe.

I am not really expecting anything much to happen after the halving. There might be a bull run, but it wouldn't be immediately after the Halving. Some experts said that the same thing that happened in 2016 will likely repeat itself, and if I can remember exactly, the bull run didn't start immediately after the Halving in 2016, it took some time before it happened. If I can remember exactly, the uptrend started after the Bitcoin Cash fork. The Bitcoin Cash fork happened in July 2017, and the price dropped a bit, before it started going up.

But, this halving is going to be bit different. For the first time, bitcoin production is going to under 10BTC per block (or for every ~10 minutes). It means more than 5 times lesser bitcoins to sell unlike what we had till 2012 (or first halving). There are plenty of chances for prices to fly in exponential growth but not from the next day of halving 8).

Just like some people already said, I don't think halving will have immediate effect on price. Hopefully, we'll see upward movement's big peak 8-20 months after. Although if something major happens like mid-size country default or euro collapse, hyperinflation etc. that should add to the bitcoin's price momentum and the peak may be shifted. The question is: will the halving history repeat itself?

To the list you had mentioned then its all the same yet it do talks about price increase generally. 15k is considerable or somewhat realistic but we should mind of first on breaking
that 10k resistance fully.We already reached that level eventually but did go back down to 8k levels.Positivity is there but it will really need up some time before reaching those
numbers specially on the talks of new ATH.Lets not be on a hurry because things will eventually happen along the way.

In talks of countries hyperinflation or some sort then you shouldnt think that people it will automatically jumped in into crypto space.Of course we do really much prefer on having that long term effects

It could be but not in 100% sure. A lot of factors that could actually make it impossible just like what we have now. There is no pandemic in the previous 2 halvings, though they have hacking events in the past, but this year's halving is quite challenging for us and I know everyone had felt it.
That is why we shouldn't be expecting too much about this halving but it doesn't mean that we are just losing our hopes by then, It can still be there (Bullrun)...only we need to be patient.

I am really excited about this Bitcoin Event 2020 to happen, even the biggest investors round their are having high hopes about the results. The third Bitcoin halving and the first ever event resulted in huge price increases.

But, the latest news suggests that this much awaited event will bring a drop in the BTC Prices after halving ends.
The current Pandemic situation has worsened the effects of the powerful cryptocurrencies including many.
Let's hope for the best, what's in the stores for this halving event, whether there will be an increase in price or a major drop.

The way I'm seeing it, it seems like the rate of demand is really high because the price has been increasing.
If the demand should continue to be high and the supply is cut short after the halving, then there is going to be a price boom and the price will go very high.

But if that's not the case, then we should be ready for another decline in the price since a lot of miners are going to stop mining bitcoin because they can't afford it since expenses will be very high and profit won't be able to cover it up. But that's not really problem, because I know if that happens, as time goes on the price will still grow again.
