Christmas trade?

[eXclusiveOR]

The question is simple: will we see such a thing in the Bitcoin world this Christmas?
I know, I know...it's not the first Christmas for Bitcoin. But I think a lot has changed since last time in the commercial sector around Bitcoin, there are more shops and vendors that offer real and virtual goods and accept Bitcoins as payment.
Also there could be a peak in sales for Bitcoin vouchers or printed Bitcoins. Maybe people give each other some Bitcoin as an investment gift like you would give them a special coin that could rise in value some day? People could be buying physical Bitcoins instead or gift cards with a QR code to a private key, all of these are already available.

It is indeed not the first Bitcoin Christmas.  Look at historical charts for some insight .

We make more and more bitcoin sales every month. Hopefully Christmas in the Bitcoin world is good this year. We have lots to offer in the gift department!

The difficulty dropped last year that led to the boom.  in 3 years there will be another rally when the difficuly again drops and bitcoin becomes a real low inflation currency.

Because that's how Bitcoin is designed.  The block subsidy halves every four years, and last year was the first halving.
