The price increase of the last few days has gotten my hopes up. I do feel we can easily go bak to 300 USD aswell, but for now i anticipate a price increase.
With the current price it's also safe for miners to keep profitting from their mining operation.

So I guess it went all  'good'

once miners stop mining lthe difficulty drops and its profitable to mine again for others

yeah but it mean that the network will be less secure, because than the next halvign will cause another drop, and the next one another one, plus add new efficient miners

all this need the price to increase, there is no other way around, if this will not happen it will eventually lead to the died of bitcoin

I think if it will happen and there is no price increase anymore mining cant be profitable
And it will reduce miners and users until bitcoin has no value.
But for me it will never happen because the price is stable and halving is nearly end.
So mining still be profitable on this year so keep your asic miner active and wait for halving ends..

the price nowadays is the double of the price in last September , so miners did not stop when the bitcoin price reached $200 So WHY will stop them when the halving happen with current price ? it will be the same as 25 btc in Sep 2015 = 12.5 btc now in price

So IMO price will not stop miners from mining

No rise means no miners (home miners) which means no decentralization.

This could be the end for bitcoin, since it is it's unique selling point.

You wont see a price rise when the reward drops. It will already be priced in by then.

This would be very bad for bitcoin. Even I would sell my coins since bitcoin needs to be and stay decentralized.

Let's hope some new cutting edge miner will come on the market by then.

The price will remain the same (like last time)

But no harm will been done. By february/march we will see some new miners coming out which make it profitable.

A lot of angry people I would imagine as they were waiting a whole year or more for this to increase their stash of coins astronomically. Myself included the ones in cold storage that is  Wink

Maybe they should realise that the price has already risen over 60% in the last year. But people are expecting a big rise in June.

Bitcoin and Blockachain will continue to coexist for sure. Miners will be looking for more productive way how to work with less cost. Difficulty will adjust accordingly so no worry.

^ This.

I think sometimes people think the date of the block reward reduction will roll around and suddenly the market will wake up to it. In reality, the relevance of the halfing increases as we approach it - but not in a sudden-spike way, but in a gradually-over-the-course-of-time way, as the poster above has pointed out. The market knows the halfing will happen.

I've also got coins sitting in cold storage, and an astronomical rise would, of course!, be very nice. But a 60% rise through 2015 is good, and with the 2016 block reward reduction out of the way we can look forward to the market pricing in - gradually! - the rise for the 2020 block reward reduction.

This space intentionally left blank.

I believe the price has not reflected the halving. The halving is still 6 months away. The market will not react so early.

Difficulty will be lowered after some of the small miners left the mining bitcoin and shift towards mining alts. This is reason why we don't have to blindly believe that price will rise before halving this year.

If the price does not rise after the halving, some less efficient miners will be turned off. The difficulty might not drop due to the more efficient miners coming to the market.

I believe we will see a decline of the difficulty after halving day due to some big chinese companies shutting down and selling their equipment if the price rise doesn't at least compensate for loss of profitability. These super farms do not want to support the network but simply turn a profit. If the numbers are not rising, or are stagnating, let alone decreasing, some of them will liquidate their mining business.
