Coins like BCD and few others have their Halving coming up after Bitcoin halving and I can say it's a good buy because the reward for miners will definitely be lower, price increasing is possible

Projects that have tokenized assets don't have halving like Proof-of-Work coins such as Bitcoin and a halving for the latter can be beneficial as it reduces the block rewards and can result in price appreciation in the lead up to and afterwards

Depend on what kinda project are you looking for. If i talk about btc then you can see btc price bump in every btc halving. Halving is really good opportunity for miners because of bonus price. Now there is one thing, if miners sold there bonus after halving then price might be dump. Otherwise it's a good thing for project and project's product price.

Halving is only happening on bitcoin it has no connection with other projects, so you yeah you made the right decision, On bitcoin, it is not guaranteed that the price will go up but it is expected that it will happen I hope so, but we are on crypto industry unexpected things might always happen even it is good or bad for us. Tell your friend don't invest just because it is halving, invest because you already made a background check and a lot of research about a particular project.

In as much as I haven't really witnessed any halving,but from information I got while researching,I think it is good to invest even because of halving,as I was told and hope to see the effect of halving this year,that there will be price surge in bitcoin,so I think it's an opportunity to benefit from the price surge.

It is not about whether it will work for several years or not but halving is a feature to control the inflation rate,
The real value comes from the usage of the coin itself, halving can not be used as a sole indicator to invest because it does not bring any technical usage.
Just like fiat, if we are using gold or silver as form of payment then what is the usage of fiat?
You can use it to measure the potential risk of a certain coin but you must not use it as a guide to make an investment.

The halving you’re talking about , do you mean Bitcoin or just these altcoins? If you’re referring to altcoins then that’s a total waste of time. A Halving is not enough reason for anyone to invest in an altcoin, the only halving that I know have been able to have an effect on the market is the Bitcoin Halving. About two times the Bitcoin Halving took place, there were some movements in the chart and the price of most cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin and top altcoins did go up.

The last one halving was what led us to the all time high price where we were able to reach an all time high of almost $20,000. So I will say that Halving is a good reason to invest in Bitcoin, and not altcoins. But I’m not saying that halving is enough reason, you still have to be very careful.

Someone asked me this question yesterday and I decide to share it with others on here today.

A friend asked if Halving is enough reason to invest in a coin? What do you think about this question?

My own answer is nope because halving is just a feature that won't work out until several years and if the project never have any good use case to begin with the halving won't make any difference.

Am I wrong? Am I right? Leave your thoughts below, thanks
Halving doesn't make changes in its value only the speculation hype from the halving made this into more profitable.So not every coin is going to be suitable for investing after halving but after bitcoin halving most cryptos expected to boom.

As we are on altcoin subforum we will give you an example.

In December 2020 the price of LTC was $20. Half a year later, there had been halving of Litecoin. Because of that, the price of Litecoin skyrocketed to almost $200 (5 weeks before halving itself).
After this peak the halving bubble burst (one of the reasons behind that was that for smaller miners, mining stopped to be profitable and they went mining another crypto), and today the price of LTC is $60.

You must have answered in terms of bitcoin. In my opinion halving must be the biggest feature in bitcoin's economic rules because only because of halving deflation will occur quickly which must be the important thing for making bitcoin as one of the attractive investment opportunity of our life time. Yes, we do not need to bother about any other coin's halving feature because other halving will not impact crypto markets unlike how influentially bitcoin's halving will be impacting.

Simply I must say, halving will be the enough reason for anyone to invest with bitcoins. But do not get mislead by same kind of halving feature for any other coin. This way I believe you might have answered to your friend in the right sense.

If you are talking about Bitcoin, yes it's worth it, we are talking about cutting in the supply and if there is a huge demand but the supply can't keep up then there is a possibility that the price will go up, I cannot speak for other coins or tokens but these coins are just relying on the price of Bitcoin for their performance in the market.

I agree with you. That's true that we don't hope too much on halving, no guarantee the price will continue to increase. It is better to have another strong reason to invest in Bitcoin such as volatility. The volatility in Bitcoin price allows the investors to get a higher chance of earning big profits. Although it also can make big losses as well.

If you think positively then it will be good. I see the history before it after halving bitcoin has increased, especially altcoin as well as many coins that reached the new ATH at that time so that many assume that halving this year will bring good growth to the cryptocurrency market.
Before halving there is a good thing you have already portrayed several coins that you believe will increase later don't be late after high prices and buy better now when bitcoin hasn't touched $ 10k, then there is good buying and holding until the price really goes up.

You are certainly not mistaken, halving is not the event that will guarantee a currency growth afterwards. A good example is its LTC, Halving taking place in 2019, Currently its price is much lower than before Halving.

I think people got more hype on bitcoin halving, if its an altcoin halving, it would not create so much hype.
When bitcoin is bullish, it's expected that it would result to a good price on altcoins over time so I would say it's good to invest at the moment.

Forget about other reason, think of the past and its trend, bitcoin has been bullish prior and post halving schedule.

I also think that Halving is not a reason to invest. Remember LTC halving and you will understand that you do not need to do this. halving is just a technical action that will bring benefit to investors in the long term

In this matter I stick to the Efficient Market Hypothesis

"As stated, the EMH posits that market prices reflect available information (which, as we have noted, is the purpose of markets in the first place)" (C) Nic Carter
https://medium.com/@nic__carter/an-introduction-to-the-efficient-market-hypothesis-for-bitcoiners-ed7e90be7c0d

Information about bitcoin halving is known to everyone and it has long been included in the price of cryptocurrency.
Information from television and online magazines can stimulate the demand for cryptocurrency before halving, but then we will see a price dump

Considering that miners will wornout their best mining machines to acquire these coins, they will not just give away their coins for shitcoin price. There are however coins that can be mined that are worthless but this could be because there is nothing special to the coin, no features that will attract miners and investors to it. We've seen them before where they just fork LTC with nothing new added to it.

I can't be sure that halving is a good thing to invest if we look at history, it is good that halving after dominating bullrun price increases will occur, but for halving this time no one knows what happens after that whether it will grow or not, obviously I always do research before investing, which is clearly better at this time holding bitcoin compared to altcoin which has a downward trend.
