Title: Bitcoin halving - Where's $1200 people were boasting about
Post by: StinkyLover on July 22, 2016, 03:08:48 PM
I hold BTC. I did not think halving would bring any massive BTC rises.

So, where's all the $1200 BTC halving prophets??? Alts were meant to crash and burn once the halving occurred. Why do people think the anticipated rise did not happen? BTC is now rarer but not worth more. Is the market getting ready for a slingshot (or not)?

Price not rises because no one buy, if you want price going up you need people who want to buy it.
Market is about supply and demand, now supply get low but we still need high demand cause every 10 minutes a block give 12.5 BTC

I never said anything of the sort myself..
That would be dumb.

Like way back in maybe February or something i said a few times..
That BTC would go up "Some what" and it did exactly that.
It was up over $400 and broke $700 so i predicted my shit on the money !
I also said it would not last that long because it's not organic natural growth of an investment.
So it would gradually sink back down..

I made a few posts waaay back in the Bitcoin section then repeated a bit here in ALT main.
My comments are on the record dated specific & provable.

Heed advice from Shitcointalk blow hard's people..

Such as "genius" Risto who said each BTC will be worth 1 million each.
And back in 2013 when dipshits were crying Bitcoin $10,000 ..i was laughing cashing out at 1k each  8)

Gonna have to get smart at some point people.. you can't put it off forever.

Don't forget people the Altcoin scene is made up off i bet more than half CHILDREN
So when you are listening to some Legendary account here spouting off like a cocky expert.
You may be talking to a little shithead who barely has peach fuzz on his fucking nuts.

There is no age requirement and it takes a quick search here on how to game the forum ranks.
You can also BUY accounts.. which is popular with dumb scheming brats.

If you take your trade advice from anonymous greedy little children looking for profit on a scam web site then you are mother fucking retard and deserve to loose the shirt on your back.. i won't feel sorry for you.

Get smart Cryptard's

Overbought. Speculators left, right and center. Should correct. If you want to "get rich quick" you need to trade ponzi-scams and loose it all.

I think we see selloff, drop in hashrate, panic, bearmarket and then we'll be good for new high.

Yes i din't effect on bitcoin price, once again block are being mined definitely there increase in the price. One more thing you need to know is there an increase in price, when people are buying bitcoin again there is an increase in the price.

everyone is looking at halving earlier, which could bring prices rise very high. but this year did not match expectations. but it still has a chance, because we've experienced a halving a few weeks ago. whereas the effect of halving will not happen immediately and can take several months. so be patient and wait that prices will rise higher.

Yeah that is the reason, the demand and supply is currently at the same level, when the demand wil increase the price will increase and if the supply is reduced then the price will increase, people were of the opinion that in the halving the price will increase, because they were on the opinion that after the halving the mining reward will be reduced and many of the miners will leave mining and so the price will increase,

Patience.  It will probably head that direction this fall.  Halvings have proved to not be the moon shot everyone thinks they will be.  This is a sign of stability.   The more stable bitcoin is the more newcomers will come on board.

after halving nothing happens, there is no significant movement of the price wave is flat prices
maybe the expectations everyone thought would be the same as halving the first session
or when the price bitscoin in 2012 or 2013 be able to touch the price of $ 1,000 every one bitcoin

The price is always depends in supply and demand Dont relay in bitcoin block halving even how many times we experience bitcoin block halving the if the demand and supply is not changes the price will be the same as present price..
So if bitcoin is in demand expect that the price will rise more..

Just wait a few weeks, it is sure that the price will increase after halving, it is not started yet, but keep believe that it will increase to a higher value sooner, the price did not crash it mean that people still have their coins in their wallet and are waiting for more to earn with the coming pumps.

I think most people were saying 3-6 months after halving.  1 week after makes no sense for a huge price increase.

They were boasting it would go to $20000, much more than 1200. Back then I was saying 800-900 and I was close but still wrong.

We will never see $1200 again in our life time, the fundamentals are all weak and fubar. Even the Chinese are getting smart about bitcoins. The days of moon rockets and choo-choo trains are gone, probably forever. It's been almost 7 years since Satoshi's released Bitcoin, there should be a tidal wave of mass adoption already. Another 7 more years won't make a dent, there is no new China, India may have the population but they don't have money like the Chinese. There is no other China. Bulltards are all going to be f*cked.

Actually I think it is not so bad this current stability on the bitcoin price, and I personally think there were no valid reasons to wait for such impressive price increase after the halving.

I hope this price remains for several months as our last opportunity to acquire more coins before the unavoidable arrive to the moon.

Yeah, I'd say 3-6 years. I think it's actually good that the price is falling, this is not some get-rich-quick scheme, no need to rush...

People on this forum were smoking the crackola big time.  What they fail to see is that we got one hell of a rise from $430 to $700.  Not bad--not quite doubling, but not bad at all.  I think bitcointalkers were just being far too bullish, but that doesn't surprise me at all.  The community is an optimistic one and it's so easy to get caught up in hype when there's a raging bull market happening.

Anyone remember the dot com bubble and the biotech bubble in the late 90s?  This reminds me so much of that.  The giddiness is just funny to see at times.

first of all stop dreaming of becoming rich overnight just because bitcoin price went to the moon overnight when you were sleeping and start using bitcoin as a currency to see the other face of this coin and enjoy the benefits.

second if you think it is not going up feel free to sell your coins to the whales, they are accepting it with open arms.

$1200 price is just a big speculation and someone didnt confirm that it would reach that such amount , speculation is the same as guessing so in that case we should wait  for the price to hike since all of us doesnt know when to happen . Observing on the first halving the price didnt rise  directly on a short period of time as  you can se it takes years to reach high amount as we can see now into the present.

nobody is going to tell you what to do, you have to understand the risks first before going in. and if you can't accept these risks and also if you can't speculate about bitcoin then stop "hodled"ing your coins and get out now and let there be more cheap coins for the whales :D

Wait for it, bitcoin will not go up to 1200$ in an instant.
It will take months to achieve that price. Better to hold your btc .

Thanks for the heartfelt advice then, friend. I suppose I will just HODL. These whales know better than that foolish collections agency anywho.

I remember few months ago when people here talked about halving and possible rise. Some of them said that btc price is already doubled and that we can see some little rise, but nothing special. I thought they are wrong and that we can see some nice price over 1000 $ after halving. I still believe in that rise, and I'm constantly repeating myself that we didn't saw yet full effects of this year halving. Give it a bit more time and price will go up, this year have 5 more months until the end, there is a lot of time for bjg things.

That was panic.Now $1200 far away you need to wait for next panic.if you had experience what happening 2012 and what was the result after 2013 you can understand.I had experience I sell all my coin at $750 and now am waiting for buy.I saw some people said bitcoin will reach $5000 before halving.I think still have chance to increase because price is stop now and wait for next bull.Patience my friend nothing happening in one day :)

No, the point of my post was the bullish nature of some threads before halving (you must have seen them). I didn't believe any of it. I am a long term holder of crypto. I have not yet cashed out $1 in all my years in the industry. I believe I will be using 'some' of my stash in about 4-5 years from now.

('some' meaning that some of my stash will be useless dead coins but hopefully it is balanced out by the surviving ones)

I believe in the potential bitcoin which can be up to $ 1200, and I was not a hoax. it may take quite a long time, but it will definitely happen, when prices rose bitcoin. probably better we just hold bitcoin that we have today, and if you can make a lot of bitcoin, then you should do it. I think requires a long time for it.
