I've said before, but when bitcoin price doesn't increase as expected at the halving, perhaps it will decrease a bit because of people losing confidence or people who wanted to make a quick buck giving up and leaving.

I don't think bitcoin's price will go up slow and steady. Either something happens to catapult it way up, or it fades away.

It is sometimes beneficial to look at the other side view for a moment.

Practically the entire bitcoin community suggests that we will have a glorious bubble on or around 2016 halving.
However, fully expected events in any market almost never come to fruition.
So, what unexpected scenario(s) could unfold?

a. An antibubble (hard down) caused by some unforeseen circumstances?
b. Mining demise, hence a decreased network ability to process transactions resulting in bitcoin "crisis"?
c. Developers focus on other crypto, hence bitcoin becoming "boring" and fizzling away?

Yet, I cannot foresee any of these possibilities actually happening, so maybe instead of anti-bubble we would just have a boring flat market all the way?
