[Kvalentine]

I am curious and i need answers, the last bitcoin halving happened in 2016 and a year later bitcoin bullrun follows, in that year many believes that ICO HYPE was responsible for the bullrun and others belief it did a big a part so my question now is what do you guys think will drive the next bullrun season?

Halving might have a chance to drive the next season of bullrum but what must you remember there's not ETA for the bullrun will come.
It cna happen in a few years later or a year later but i don't even believe if that will give a instant impact to the price of bitcoin.
You must take a look at how the price of litecoin was going down again to the bottom even after litecoin has already done its halving and the blockreward decreased a lot.

I think we need to explain what Halving is before we answer here. Halving means, half of the 12.5 BTC prize per block in the Bitcoin network. So after halving, every block will have a 6.25 BTC prize.

It can be said that this decreasing reward is the cause of the price increase. Miners' revenues are decreasing and supply is decreasing, so the price rises. However, after each halving has occurred in different developments. This makes us curious about the next period. But I don't think it's possible to know this from today. It may be legal regulations.

Unfortunately for most people it will be another artificial financial crash, the crisis started in the banking sector.
This time it will be something on the scale we have never seen, I'm afraid.
Central banks are plotting some shenanigans, in order to destabilise national currency and introduce The One coin for the whole world.
The amount of corporate market, stocks they have purchased already is kinda scary, like 65% of stocks on all markets combined are being owned by the central... something it definitely going to happen cause they can't own the world, it would be to obvious and so they won't risk the mutiny. Reset looks like a valid plan, reset with a new candidate as a global currency. I have this suspicion, that its going to be libra...   hope I'm mistaken and it's all just cheap scare.

Why do you think that there will be a BULL RUN ?
It is possible that there will be nothing like that at all , ever. It is possible that all that we have gotten after the hype is just a aftermath of that hype which is slowly and steadily dying.

You raised a good point mate. Though the same thing won't happen again, but the next BTC halving is a positive thing in crypto and everyone is waiting for the Bitcoin halving in 2020. In 2016, when the ICO market started growing, it was new, so many people supported it. But ICO era ended badly last year, so, you can't expect a bull run like 2017.

The next bullrun will drive the same as previous thing, its new fresh money, new investors with big wallets. there are no prerequisites for this yet. Some people think that the next bullrun will be on 2021 year because crypto cycles have 4 years. Previous bullrun before 2017 was in 2013 year. Need wait and we will see what happen.

for the next bullrun we have halving bitcoin and ethereum 2.0. maybe this is not strong enough but I'm sure this is enough for the beginning. I am still sure until now when halving will btc be pumped and the market will follow it. Even though altcoin funds will be affected by bitcoin in the end, it won't be like it used to. maybe we won't be able to see ATH anymore for altcoin. because at the next bullrun bitcoin dominance will be the highest point.

Prediction in crypto market is actually unworthy, crypto market is totally unpredictable.
You listed down two reasons which you think were behind last run (most probably you pointing the bullrun of late 2017) but can you really trace them on price chart? I don't think 2016 halving created any instant uprise in Bitcoin price so that reason is completely ruled out. ICO Hype, maybe it contributed to Bitcoin price rise a bit but it wasn't surely the main reason because hardly 5% ICOs receive contributions in Bitcoin, rest of them are more inclined towards Ethereum and other alts. So in short, we can say it is not possible to determine single reason that push prices, there has to be number of reasons and when combination of them create a bullish trend, then only price start rising which is then turn to bullrun when more and more investors start jumping due to FOMO.

I believe we are going to have another all-time high, in my opinion, we are now entering in a bull run again and some of the factors that may contribute that is the Bitcoin halving, Facebook's entry and big companies adopting Cryptocurrency, we have to skip the ICO, because it is dead right now, although it really helps Bitcoin to reach its all-time high.

First, I do not think that ICO hype have a major thing to do with Bitcoin bull run, remember majority of ICO were conducted on ETH platform, so the currency that would benefit this the most is ETH.  I think the main reason why Bitcoin skyrocketed last 2017 is because of several news of adoption.  I think those where the time when CME and CBOE were announced so lots of speculators thinks that with this 2 institution launched, Bitcoin will go up in price.  That triggers the FOMO and eventually lead BTC to its ATH.  But sadly it was short lived because the once they knew that will push the Bitcoin price up is the one that pulls it down after the ATH.  

At this point, I think people are used to instutional adoption news so I guess it won't have a great effect on BTC.   See what happen on BAKKT launch.  If there is a catalyst for a bull run, i believe the major reason would be the halving since the supply will be reduced into half and that makes BTC rarer.

Next would be inflow of money from institutional investors where they will regard crypto as a alternate form of investment. This will surely gonna create a hype around the globe. Plus the next halving scheduled in next year gonna bring in the pump as well. Many analyst have predicted that next halving could kick the price above $50k. So yeah, I am pretty much bullish about the next year.

Now investors with large wallets control the price of bitcoin.

And to try to increase the value of other coins, it is necessary to invest a lot of money.

And since most investments in cryptocurrencies are small, ordinary users can not control the price of the cryptocurrency.

The media is just an extra opportunity for money whales to capitalize on impatient investors.

I think the next bullrun season is possible if institutional investors enter the market. And at the moment there are all the prerequisites for this. Perhaps soon we will see it.

* This is the biggest myth on this market. There are a lot of huge wallets which have no movement for a long time, they can not affect Bitcoin's price. Now, we can't say the big wallets have too much control. In order for us to say that, those wallets must take action. In addition, most of the big wallets belong to exchanges. The balance in those wallets belongs to tens of thousands of people. maybe much more...

* It depends on volume. Some altcoins can gain value easily. Without no money. Even EVX (which has a lot of volume) has gained so much value sometimes.

Bitcoin halving will boost its price and crypto market will see a better condition but I am doubtful about the bull run. What is the measurement of the crypto bull run? 20K USD? For me, this year when Bitcoin almost touched 14K USD, that was a pure bull run. Bitcoin stayed at 10K USD for a long time, that was a stable price after the bull run. So, I will be waiting for BTC halving, but it is not the sign for the next bull run!

[DaMut]

This is my hypothesis:

* In 2020, halving will happen and just like before. The price starts to climb up steadily until next year.
With the announcement from Libra, ETH about their development and transition. Another listing on CME and something else

* In 2021, China announces their first tokenized currency and it is backed by their real currency. Because of this, the hype starts.

there is no way an update of certain coin will push the price up again, unlike before. Many people had learned their lesson, I believe only country level of adoption that might trigger the bull.

Bitcoin block reward reduction - this will definitely be a reason for the price increase. but this will happen either in a few months or a few months from this date (May 20 approximately).
Two less coins will hit the market every day.

Can you be more clearer? what do you mean by two less coins will hit the market every day? are you talking about altcoin new projects? And if bitcoin halving actually takes place will altcoin surge in value just like it did in 2017/2018?

for me, the most responsible about bullrun on 2016-2017 is ETH , the mother of ICO, creating a new ERA of crypto currency with smart contract system.

my question now is what do you guys think will drive the next bullrun season?

well, the most sentiment for create a huge bull run for next part is if SEC accepted bitcoin ETF,
for me , its really important, u know,when SEC accepted it, its like BTC legal already.
as we know, SEC still delayed it , the last news i know, final deadline on mid october.

Like what everyone saying for the next bull run it will be triggered by institutional money. It may not be too big right now after the Bakkt launching because we're looking for a quick significant result but I say that look for the long term afterwards. Are you also thinking that after the halving by 2020 then next year(2021) will also cause a bull run? I'm thinking like that but I'm no expert in charts and I'm continuously observing the market and preserving and getting ready for any action.
