Okay that was really fast, like I'm really confused right now. I wasn't expecting the Halving to happen now. I have been making use of the Binance Academy site to be counting the days to the Halving and I thought it was going to be accurate. Lol, the site is still reading that the halving will be in two days, dumb site lol. So I'm wondering what's going to be next? Some have said that the event will not only favor the miners, because the reward they are getting for mining coins is going to reduce, and a lot of them are going to drop out since they are not getting enough. But how sure are we that the price will start going up from now? There has been a slight decrease to $8k price range and the price has made a little comeback, I hope it goes up.

snipped-
With lot of miners caught off gueard while sustaining major expenses to renew the mining Hardware.
This is already expected from those some miners because, for them, mining is a long game about survival. They expect that after halving they will shut down and they should have more efficient mining machines to cope up after halving and of course, cheap electricity is getting more advantage.

Halving is here all mixed emotions that we have will be over now because soon it will tell us what is going to be real from our speculations and prediction. Bitcoin's price probably not be favorable to us for a while but surely it will still kick to sky high and will give us a better or merely stable price before the end of the year. Everyone just enjoys and be happy with this halving!

This was both a phenomenal incident as well as a sorrowful one.
Phenomenal because it has reached yet another milestone successfully and sorrowful because it costed many miners their courage as weak hands have left the mining game already and this shows that the price needs to set itself up to a level where mining BTC becomes profitable once again.

Contrary to what happened in various shitcoins, no major drop in bitcoin hashrate:

Mining industry is going into a major shakeout.
Looks who's out of business now:

Antminer S9s that produce more than 20% of Bitcoin's current hash rate are no longer profitable

In my humble opinion the race to get more efficient hardware equipement has played a major role in the mid march market crash. With lot of miners caught off gueard while sustaining major expenses to renew the mining Hardware.

There was a time when the Halving was coming and now it has come!!!!
Happy Days
I'm not as optimistic as you are. The halving event always proves that prices will plummet and slowly rise again. So this $ 8k5 price is a pretty high price and I believe that bitcoin could fall to $ 7k or $ 6k5 before it goes to the moon. This is the time when we should hold cash and wait for bitcoin to come cheap to buy.

Looking at the price, this turns out to be a non-event.
Just like last time, if I remember correctly. We'll have to wait a few months to see its effects. So far, only geeks have something to talk about.

the hash rate is dropping. it's hard to say by how much exactly, but blocks are being generated about once every 11.4 minutes now. it was slightly below 10 minutes before the halving. after only 8.5 hours, that's a bigger drop than i expected.

price-wise, a $2k dump is par for the course. that's just bitcoin being bitcoin.

Sometimes monthly effect is not that enough to see if the halving is effective or not, wayback 2016, it took a year where bitcoin reached its all time high. But we need to accept the fact that the blocks are slow to regenerate so there's a bigger drop that we could experience. You really need to know if there's something bad in your investment so you need to adopt and adjust because halving really make our bitcoin investment affected.

We all know that there are a lot of factors that affect bitcoin's price and not only halving. You need to deal with that and overcome those factors that make bitcoin's price lower than normal. Considering halving will make you more knowledgeable about the bitcoin's price in upcoming years.

Happy New Bitcoin Year!  With every halving the price has seen some volatility - perhaps now that the halving has occurred together with the lockdowns being eased we will see a return to a more stable level in the mid $20k's?  $25,000 perhaps within a year.  I think that will be the max price for a while then settle around $18k/$19k after that.

I think we need several months before we can see the impact of halving just like the last time I'm very positive that things will be better for us this year even though we are in the middle of the pandemic, it's hard to make a prediction because of the situation we are in, I just take it as it comes with the belief that things will be better.

Great for Bitcoin this year Those who have invested in Bitcoin have a better way of pumping than sitting in this lockdown However, Bitcoin has halved and its price has started falling again. It’s hard to say whether Bitcoin will rise in the half for the third time but there is a good chance that the half will leave the event by the end of this year. Bitcoin will never be stable. We can make a lot of profit if the price goes up due to instability Just wait for the next step Without the Corona effect Bitcoin would have risen a lot.

Well, that is about to see. We can't say if halving is happy or not, at least not yet. Time will show if that will move the price rise and for how much and how long or the price fall.
Although many predictions were very positive, we'll see what direction will price go.
