Halvening 99% ready, rocket only 2 weeks to go before moon launch!!

[MatTheCat]

When near the halving day we are going to see a dump. It is as obvious as the pump before the halving. Long term price probably will increase, but not short term.

You people should learn from what happened in basically all coin halvings

^^yep!

don't think half, think double, half today, twice as much tomorrow

Well, halving is definitely going to be an interesting time for bitcoin. The price is currently stable around the high $600 region but who knows where it can go to once it really gets started.

I'd say that $700 is a realistic estimate. Who knows.

Its not showing properly. The op needs to add one so every time we refresh the op the time refreshes too.

Don't think it can be posted online because I don't think the forum accepts script on posts

From your understanding of markets. Do markets generally price in fundamental events before, or after the event?

If markets tend to price things in 'before the event', then what tends to happen after the event?

I think the halving is not new news. We knew this several months ago. So the price is already reflecting that.

Indeed.

And would the market have likely overshot 'fair value' for this Halving Event? If so, what will the market likely do next?

[trickshot22]

If it stays at 800$, dump will happen and then it will rise back to same or higher price 

the price is surely going to be dumped in my opinion because people will want to make a lot of profit in the future really easily so they will be selling their bitcoins at a very rapid pace

No, we knew this when Bitcoin was created, that's what gives Bitcoin value. If not for the halvings, the number of bitcoin would keep growing forever.
What happens after the event is anyone's guess, because it's a non-event. I lean towards "dump," but only because of the recent pumps.

knowing or not knowing about halving doesn't make any change. there may be some hype because of knowing it is going to happen and increase the price because of it but also it is all about the supply and demand and when halving happens this supply will be even less.

The supply is constantly growing. It is increasing roughly every ten minutes by 25BTC, by 3,600 BTC per day.
Let's keep our facts straight.

There will be some profit booking for sure.
I would like to believe that there are enough true Bitcoin enthusiasts here, who will make up for the short-term investors.

You're telling me there are bitcoin enthusiasts who are telling us to buy, but secretly sitting in fiat themselves, because waiting for the post-halving dumps? Sneaky!

Post halving dump might have already happened. The price dropped from $780 to $530 a few weeks ago.

I agree with this.  There is definitely speculation going on surrounding the halving.  However, pre-established price due to the market knowledge of this event would be like claiming the 4 Million+ bitcoins that haven't been mined yet are already priced in.  Or pick a number.  You can't price these kinds of things in.  It needs to play out in the market
