Shitcoiner, nobody, attention-whore, segwit2x traitor and all-round ugly girl has opinions: 1/ there is a very real possibility the price of bitcoin does not go up after halving. for the first time, there is a robust derivatives (futures, options) market for bitcoin. most firms looking to speculate on bitcoin will trade a derivative, not the underlying. meh, but i agree that she is attention seeking. If halving is the dominant factor, then she would be proven wrong. What is "real possibility" anyway? IMHO any short term futures and options players would be taken down a notch, though.

The point she is right about is that future trading makes bitcoin more stable. So growths and declines will be less sharp. Both ways will be more stable not just the way up. And that is good, money need to be as stable as can be.

Silly slut, probably bitter she can’t even afford 1 whole BTC so she spends her life trying to manipulate the minds of those who can. Fuck this bitch. I wonder what makes her an expert about crypto. Another self-claimed bitcoin expert? That's what I like about bitcoin anyway. It always shits on clueless morons. Never misses.

The first serious derivative salvo arrived just at the death of the last bubble and since then it's been a steady decline into poo soup. She's right to raise the possibility. That's unquestionably where most of the 'institutional investors' will prefer to go, but everything flies out the window if there's proper a bubble on or the sniff of one. We need all this new guff to be present for another 2-3 complete cycles before its effects can be properly analysed. Until then it's just groping in the dark.

Some institutional investors will go for derivatives or maybe even GBTC ... Some, who have the proper technical team and can do it, will buy the underlying. They might do it through Gemini, or they might try any of the other exchanges.

I want to take this moment to remember that exactly one year ago we were at around $3.5K and it was a hard blow after all the previous year unfulfilled dreams. During 2019, it seems we have bottomed and doubled that. What I mean is...

There have only been 2 halvings so far, way too little for a certain judgment. Price is always dependent on demand first and foremost... supply is important, but it is secondary. The next bubble, if and when it happens , will have to be a function of a very large amount of fresh capital entering the market. The numbers required are much larger now than in previous bull phases.

The numbers required are much larger now than in previous bull phases. Cost of production also plays a major part... Cutting production (per block) in half, while cost of production (per block) remains the same, could make mining unprofitable, unless the price rises. Edit: Rephrased last sentence.

..but it doesn't actually affect the price per se. Mining becomes unprofitable, hashrate falls, difficulty falls. The price drives this action, this action doesn't drive the price. Aggregate demand is always key to price changes, and it dances mainly to other tunes.

I was watching Expanse for the first time. There are some cultural references in that show that might apply here as well. 1. It is unlikely that bitcoin would be accepted by a majority of populace. 2. Accordingly, we need to care more about bitcoin and bitcoiner's than to actively proselytize. 3. Instead, we should try to create our own culture and facilitate this process. Others can join on their own (where and when THEY are ready). 4. Maybe, we should even try to introduce new words/language to help with culture distinction. This is already happening, slowly. Obviously, this is a spontaneous process. Mind you, it looks like our culture is already under pressure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6odnm_X0jI

The numbers required are much larger now than in previous bull phases. I read your post as being exceedingly cautious, Majormax, and you already likely recognize that I continue to believe that there is a bit more underlying buying pressures than the amount that you seem to be willing to accept present. Furthermore, supply is a pretty damned underlying force, whether you want to categorize it as "secondary" or not... supply is a kind of hard pressure that inevitably ends up biting the bears in the ass.. especially any of them who under estimate its power, after they are manipulating down for much longer and much lower than can be contained and ends up resulting in a lot of irrational and uncontainable upwards FOMO buying... which is likely going to be another history that repeats itself... surely not guaranteed in any kind of way, but a seeming likely outcome... time and degree to be determined. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
