Your plan if no significant move on Bitcoin price along with the halving?

[beerlover]

Halving is only good for traders and not long term investors. Bitcoin is a diamond amongts the coal here and because we are lucky to have bitcoin we should be thankful for whatever the price is. I am %100 honest I wouldn't be mad if bitcoin went back to 1000 dollars because people started to sell in waves, I don't care about the price of bitcoin right now.

Yeah, in 20 years I would like to see a decent return (and doesn't have to make me super rich, just a decent retirement fund like today's 100k for example) and that's it for me, I have no secret agenda about bitcoin. Halving should theoretically increase the price because there is less supply with about 900 bitcoins a day instead of 1800 bitcoins a day but to be fair 900 bitcoins a day means around 6.5 million dollars sold per day even if all of them are sold, that is not really too much of a big difference in a daily volume of all bitcoin trades.

I will continue to HODL. I think I will not be disappointed as much as my disappointment when I continued to HODL during the time when Bitcoin reached almost $20,000. I did not sell at that time. I sold before that and after that. But it was not selling because I gave up. I sold because I had to. I am HODLing for a long time, not just within the next year or the next halving.

80% of my plan is this, I'll continue to hold even if there is no substantial changes with the prices and cryptocurrency as general but it could be another time trigger to get bitcoin to top again with whopping $20000 price then you can enjoy selling your bits at that price point. Let us watch what this incoming halving could do to change the current situation now, but at least don't expect that much.

amazingly you still hold your bitcoin, how much bitcoin do you hold?
I hope you have the right plan to minimize losses if halving later bitcoin fails to fly, good luck

- First halving, on November 2012 : Bitcoin increased from $11 to $1,100 in 2013 (one year later)
- Second halving, on July 2016 : Bitcoin increased from $600 to $20,000 in 2017 (one year later)
- Third halving, on May 2020 : Bitcoin increased from $6,000-$8,000 to $??? in 2021 (one year later)

Everybody hopes that this scenario will occur and keeping their faith on what happen in past few years. We can’t set aside that past halving really set new records in terms of prices few years after implementation. But we can’t stick to it always and better to have plan B’s or if the new halving won’t push the price higher then we Hodl very long.

I think I will hold coin until strong growth again. because I believe that bitcoin is still in an adjustment phase and that it will soon grow in the same way that technology businesses once did. History is difficult to repeat accurately but I believe the sharks are still there and it is just waiting for the chance to do this. We should take this opportunity and this halving event will explode the market.

My guess was as similar as the popular decision over here. Not that i would be selling all my bitcoins if it ever crosses $20K  again. Whatever happens i sell some when i need it and hold the rest to continue to make profit of it. That's called an investment strategy .

[CodyAlfaridzi]

I'd probably keep my Bitcoin still as I believe it does have potential, not only because of the halving. My thinking is if it's not after the halving, then later. I really have nothing to lose with my Bitcoin. Even if it's go to zero, I'll be fine. Maybe a bit disappointed but it's mostly fine. But I believe the thing that would make Bitcoin the de facto gold 2.0 would not be the halving, but some major change in the world's financial system. I'll be waiting for that.

[boris singer]

as usual, I only need a few percent that I set for monthly withdrawals, and still always increase btc investments with periodic trading. even if bitcoin returns to $ 1000 I don't panic and always stick to the main goal. Continuous development will always produce maximum results, bitcoin always proves its quality in this 10 year period.

[Karmakid]

I will keep on holding until the next rise of the price of bitcoin. I am not in a rush to sell my bitcoin at a higher price and I am thankful that the market is giving me enough time to continuously accumulate bitcoin for my long term investment portfolio. I don't know why other people are so afraid to buy now when they know that the price of bitcoin will be so much more expensive than the price now.

It is not impossible for bitcoin to reach at $20K again and halvings already prove that it can greatly affect the price of bitcoin and another alternative coins however the market has changed after the previous halving. The previous halving occurred in 2016 which made the bitcoin market explode but then it dumps after a while, but that is not what I'm talking about coz I'm referring to changes in the market in terms of people/users/investors of bitcoin that hold and waits for the upcoming halving expecting the price to pump again. Way back 2016 there are lesser people talking about the halving which took the dump long after the pump, So I guess the dump after the halving in 2020 will just take a month of less and that dump will be massive.

We all know based on the historical data, Bitcoin should increase more than $20,000 in 2021. The first and second halving have proven significant moves on Bitcoin values. So, it makes sense if we believe that in 2021 will be another great year for Bitcoin.

However, who knows about it. No guarantee for the rising of Bitcoin value. Since Bitcoin is decentralized and no authority to have the responsibility, a bad scenario may happen to break off our expectations. So, how if there is no significant move on Bitcoin price in the upcoming halving? What is your plan as a Bitcoin holder?

- Disappointed and directly trade all holding Bitcoins. 
- Keep holding until the next rising.
- No idea. I will think and replan later.
- Others (Write down on your reply).

*Sorry if this topic was already discussed before. I've used the search button and find out no result.

I have been investing on bitcoin for so long already and every decision I make here is well processed which usually takes up a long time to make every detail work according to my plan. If ever there will be no movement on the next halving or in 2021, I will definitely keep on holding still. Those speculation may occur or maybe it will not but I will still hold on to my faith in bitcoin and keep on going with my investment. I know and I can feel it that bitcoin will rise up more than what we are expecting soon, it may take long but the wait will surely be worth it.

if you buy it at the price of support I think you will be safe, but another story if you buy it at $ 10000 if halving does have a positive impact and bitcoin sky rocketing I think you are lucky, it's better to trade your bitcoin and you will feel safe

Holding would be the most obvious choice here should the scenario even happen. There's no reason to continue trading nor go against the tide if the ship is clearly sinking without any chances for recovery. By going against the tides, chances are you might just waste everything and sink insteas of just going with the flow and leace things as is.

Then again, this highly depends on who you're asking. A day-trader would surely continue on trading but for the most of us, the answer is just to hold.

Yes, as we can see from the posts in this thread and from the poll, most of us will be holding if nothing changes, or if the price goes a bit up or a bit down. But I have an impression that most of us don't realize what period of time we are talking about. It's not about 2-3 months before/after the halving, but rather about 1 year+ after the event. It's a pretty long period of time during which the price can significantly go up or down for other than the halving reasons. I personally believe that the price will go up significantly during 2020-2021, and not necessarily due to the halving.

[iamsheikhadil]

If we see past trends, price doesn't increase immediately after halving but increase gradually and sky rockets after a year or so and hence I would hold my bag for atleast 2 years after the halving and try to save more in between with a hope of getting great returns!

[carlzec]

Bitcoin price is giving signs of uptrend. However, it is necessary to be cautious. It is impossible to make a prediction for bitcoin as it rises or falls. But if the price of Bitcoin remains constant. The subcoins will be activated.

[Savemore]

I will not be disappointed even if the price of the bitcoin didn't move after the halving. I do not expect too much after all and I do not care to news and updates in the internet. My decisions are always relying in technicals so I am type of trader who using technicals than fundamentals. I an a day trader and there are a lot of opportunities in the market. Even if the bitcoin did not go up after halving, I can still make profit from its swings.

[avatar_kiyoshi]

Personally I will hold until at least the last price peak. I will separate my Bitcoin, over 70% of my Bitcoin will be hold and the rest will be trading.
With current Bitcoin hype the demands will be more than supply, I'm sure the price will be higher than the last peak.
It's looks like more people already prepared for the next halving.

[Ailmand]

Just keep on holding and if the price keeps on dropping or will be stable, I will keep on investing my savings while it is affordable. It has only been a few years since the last bull market. The bull-run might occur on the halving or a few months after it. I will just be patient, I have no olans where to use my money on crypto yet, so there is no sense for me to sell it or be disappointed if there is no significant rise on crypto after halving.

[djsugar]

I wanna look at the situation. This topic is highly being discussed that if the price didn't double after the halving, many miners will lose incentive for mining. This might create a problem for the Bitcoin network. Along with that, the rising expectation of the price rise after halving will create a fomo which in turn will take the price up. I will take that as an opportunity to sell my holdings before the halving.
I will reinvest only if there is a stability in the market after halving.
