Your opinions on the halving HERE

With the halving coming up next year there's been a lot of speculation.
What are your thoughts about it?

I need to see that to comment first. Right now I am not sure we had only one halving before and it was not good for bitcoin price at all.
I wonder if this time will be the same.

It'll have a positive impact on the price, I have absolutely no doubt about that. Feel free to quote me.

Done.

And i totally agree. I think it will have a positive pressure on the price. It's just going to be very slow and as such people expecting for price to double overnight are going to have a nasty surprise.

You can look at the price history at the first halving, if "you" do, "you" will be disappointed.

Yes, the price will go up in my opinion as well. I don't have a good reason why, but I just have the felling that it will skyrocket in some time after the halving. I don't say it will dubble overnight but I think + 5-10$ a day is good.

I am 98% sure that the upcoming halving will have a positive impact on the price. Those 2% I leave that there will be no effect at all.

I also think that's important how will we get to the next July and the halving. If from the New Year's we can start building a momentum and positive stuff start surrounding Bitcoin, I thknk that the halving will become even more important. If on the other side we start the year with a lot of drama, and this drama continues just up to the halving, then I think we might see very diminished effects on the price in July.

I think we will see impact of bitcoin halving on price before it actually happens, around 2-3 months earlier then halving but at the time of halving there will nothing shocking rather then normal price movement

We probably will, no matter when price will go up, it would be great for bitcoin and miners especially

We'll see an increase because a lot of people will fall for the hype. Although, I don't expect it to go x10 like last time. Something more modest like x3.

It didnt go 10x it stayed at 12~13$ for 2 months then went to 15-18$ over even more time. Then it kept going up slow up MtGox's inflated the numbers artificially, and then it dropped in big crashes eventually to sub 200$.

Where everyone was panicking... but didnt realized that compared to the pre mt-gox price, that was pretty good.

[Shiver]

I think it will climb a little from a few months prior or post event, but nothing dramatic.  It's been talked about too much and that firework will likely just fizzle a little bit.

[Enjorlas]

The price will be swinging rapidly around the halving. But over a long span of time, the supply being cut in half will have a positive impact on price if demand remains the same.

EDIT: if some miners drop before that it may happen on my birthday

Halving will have huge impact on the price and we will see a rise in price or till then easy by easy price will be around 350$.In any case price will be high than now.Personally I think there will a slowly but steady increase in price over the time.As time of halving will come near there will be speedy increase next year.

sure there will be a roller coaster next halving..

some people will think that bitcoin too hard to get and the price will increase..while miner got small reward so they not mining anymore...make it more cheap...

am i wrong?

[neonshium]

Halving will make the bitcoin traders a stir up. The new blood will be passed in every exchange on buying side when the supply of bitcoin mining get reduced by 50%. New money flow will make bitcoin prices to higher levels. I await for those days.

The trader scene won't change overnight, only the miner's scene will change.  The price won't soar up, it didnt the first time.

Meanwhile the halving will effectively (nearly) halve the miner income overnight and the price will not have doubled or anything at all, so quite a bit of miners will get knocked off.
