Although i agree with you in most of your arguments, i read sometimes now, that the higher max supply of verge, compared to bitcoin, has any influence to that. I dont think this is true. Of course the higher max suplly is responsible for a much lower price. But there will be a decreased number of new coins coming to the market. It can influence the price. Of course it will not double the price. But it could happen, that the price increases a bit. If you look at the last bitcoin halving, it took some time after that, but then bitcoin price rised. Att his time, just to keep the price as it is, there must be a demand that is high enough to compensate the new coins that come to the market. So if the demand (and i also mean the demand for the new mined coins) stay as it is, but the number of new mined coins decrease, this could result in an increasing price. We will see, hey it is crypto... Noone knows.
Regarding mining: In the end, there will be a lot of miners, that will switch to other coins. And after a few days, the earnings will distribute through the different coins. So i think the mining earnings will, after a short while, only go down a little bit. Of course it maybe, that the earnings will go down today, immediately after the halving, significantly. But it will go up again after a while. There will be less miners for verge, this means lower dificulty, this means more earnings for the miners that stay. A lot of people anyway do multimining with autoswitch, they will switch to other coins (this means the difficulty for that other coins will rise, and they earn less there...) After a while there will be a new balance again and everything will be fine.
The problem in your calculation or scenario is that you think that the big majority of demand is created by mining, but that is not the case. All the demand is/will be covered by the excisting cicrulating suppoly that is allready on exchanges or will go there easyly if needed. This is the main problem with high max. supply coins. It would need a lot that some extra supply is needed. Just did some reasearch. On average for the last 15 days 1.412 blocks per day are mined, means about 2,259,200 XVG/daily. After halving in theory it would be half of it, 1,100,000. This number will fluctuade a bit forworth and backworth up to how many miners switch and if the remaining will compensate it by less difficulty. In the end it should be the same, meaning around 1,100,000 XVG are generated daily. As said in my previous post, the change of less daily mineded XVG compared to the excisting XGV circulating supply is about 0,007 daily. Have in mind that again, dailly you get again some new 1.1M XVG and that it did not stop at all. I will try to make another example: The last 24 hours the 24h XVG volume was ~$100,400,000 USD, means there are 1,434,285,714 XVG traded the last 24 hours. You now get maybe the idea that these 1M XVG less daily do NOT There is make any change at all at the exchange. There is just enough supply for the demand in circulation allready. It would be a different story IF a sudden the demand is 2x higher than the available supply. THAN indeed the new mined coins had an impact. Conclusion, we miners won't feel the halving in price at all, it will be mostly something in the range of 0.0001 USD, at very most.

But last time after the halving and with a bit delay, bitcoin price increased significantly. But of course, it is not for sure, that the reason was the halving. So in the end, it is like said: It is crypto and noone knows. We have to wait and see what will happen. And in the end we will not know for sure what ever will happen, if it is because of the halving or not, because there are so much other things that can change the price...

With Bitcoin Last year it was more about the FORKS that caused the price rise. Ppl buying in to get the free 1:1 coins.

Pretty good reasoning, it makes sense, it would lower the transaction costs significantly and plus is that Spotify is a tech company and lets say familiar with crypto so this shouldn't be like a huge step form them, but a natural progression.

1) shutdown the wallet 2) go to your VERGE data folder %appdata%/roaming/VERGE on windows or ~/.VERGE on linux 3) delete the debug.log 4) restart your wallet and retry to do the import. and then look in the debug.log file for the error, this may help find what is going on.

LMAO, love the poll at the top of this thread. I'm a new Vergein (is that what we call people that are using XVG for the first time?)  I have my core wallet syncing now and I already have a nice stack to toss into the wallet once it gets synced... My question, about how long will it take to sync the entire wallet? Thanks for any advice. I plan to HODL my XVG for at least a few years while I keep picking up more and more over time.

my suggestion... STop the sync. goto the main page. ( vergecurrency etc... .com) look for the dl block chain, its there. (only get it thru that link) its a large file. letting it sync, will take 2-3days (depending) If you DL it, itll take maybe an hour to first load... then every time u start it after that, it should get a bit faster.

Looks like verge mining is now half of its previous. That's what I get now on my mining rig. With lessen supply of verge, people now will resort to buying it on their exchanges. I expect verge to surge to above 1200 sats with its current value on mining which is very low now!

The coming XVG debit card could be a game changer, but how does that affect TokenPay. This is an interesting partnership. I'd love to better understand what each side benefits.

yes verge should team up with komodo as well. that would be a great mix of a privacy coin on a decentralized cross chain exchange. all boxes ticked

Do you think Komodo platform can compete strongly with Ethereum Platform in the near future? My answer is "Yes"
