You're talking about these from the perspective of someone who is inexperienced enough in this crypto space, sorry to batch on you this way i mean no offense, there are 4 circles in bitcoin and you must realize that after the Halving is what launch us into another phase of these circles and the supply of bitcoin reduces while the demands is high and likewise the market price going higher, what we don't know is the accurate time for this bullrun to begin after halving, but it will surely come.
The point of my conversation is to not put hope on something that isn’t directly equivalent to a bull run. And I’ll say it again that Bitcoin Halving is not directly equivalent to price increase. What we fail to see is that it’s not just about total supply and circulating supply.
They’re cryptocurrencies with total supply of either about the same as Bitcoin or even less than Bitcoin, but they can never compare value with Bitcoin. Even if all remaining Bitcoin is released into the market at once, if there’s more adoption and use cases, it wouldn’t matter, but if not, we’ll face a big value reduction.
Yes, the Halving will reduce what miners earn or let’s say it’ll reduce what is being mined, but our previous Bear runs has not been caused by what Miners are earning (the new Bitcoin). This is only a mechanism to slowly and slowly release Bitcoins into circulation (so it doesn’t impact value of preexisting ones).
This has always being happening during the time of halving, and I don't think this time (2024) will be different. However, it's not the halving itself that is causing the buying as it can't inflate Bitcoin by itself but the mindset/sentiment around it. People saw what happened in the post-halving which is why they are relating market pump to it. In my understanding based on the past market behaviour, the market would experience pre-halving and post-halving effects, and as you can see, the pre-halving effect is happening in the market of late due to FOMO. But the post-halving effect is way more and there is no way there won't be demands more due to people's belief, and Bitcoin must surely rise to that effect.
