I guess the best effect of halving is making bitcoin prices rose higher than ever, I think people take advantage of it to hold their bitcoin. but I guess after halving, bitcoin prices become unstable because more people are starting to sell their bitcoin in large numbers

Bitcoin price will decrease after halving since many of people become sellers in that time but the positive aspect is halving itself.

I think that this is not true but we still have to see this of course, I think the price wil rise honestly.
The halving now has been done and I think we gonna see soon some increasing!

For now, the price is absolutely flat.
There seems to be no indication of a breakout.

hehe i think that stable price (after halving ) is a great thing for us,we had no drops,even
after people dumping their coins,so the price will rise.
Halving is great because the demand is rising!

I am not surprised that the bitcoin halving actually doesn't have effect that much today after it happened.
Because it's effect is going to take occur after few weeks or months later.
So just wait for it guys.

I think it's very difficult to say. I guess halving has both good and bad. The good side of bitcoin prices may grow in large numbers, but on the other hand, the number of bitcoin is reduced so as to make the salary we get less, well I guess just the same, if the price of bitcoin increases, and we BTC salaries reduced.

As the title says, is the halving good or bad for the price of bitcoin?

The halving will decrease the supply of bitcoin, whole keeping the demand, so that would make bitcoin worth more.

But the halving will make mining profitibilty worse, meaning less miners, a higher trans. fee, and maybe causing a smaller demand.

What's your verdict?

I think bitcoin will still go up, as the fees might, let's say, double, but that's still a smaller transaction fee than through the banks...

I guess halving is bad for bitcoins but good for bitcoiners. Every halving mining difficulty increases and with the increased demand for bitcoins how much longer can the supply lasts. But there are already steps taken by big industries underlying bitcoin to make it last and survive long. And one way to control and balance the supply and demand is through increasing its value. But for me halving effects will later push the increase on bitcoins price hopefully.

the difficulty is/has been increasing all the time. the halving itself doesn't add any extra difficulty on top of the current difficulty.

It's not what I read, every halving will increase the difficulty on mining so the reward will be lessen, if the price will not increase the miners will not be operating in profit, at least that is what I know.

halving or no halving, the difficulty has been increasing regardless of that. the demand for bitcoin is going up year on year, which translates into a higher price. higher price means more miners are interested in firing up their hardware, and that leads to a higher difficulty. just look at the difficulty charts. just before the halving the next difficulty increase was around 1.5%, and right now it's 2%. it's just a regular difficulty increase.

The main determinant of miners’ profits is their energy costs. In order to reduce energy costs, miners seek more efficient chips which allows the network to process more transactions at lower cost, which should help keep miners online, thereby helping boost network security.

It's hard to tell if halving is good or bad for the halving. Only satoshi nakamoto the creator of bitcoins knew the answer. He know the reason why halving existed or what are the hidden reasons and underlying factors why halving existed. But in my simple understanding halving is beneficial to bitcoin. Halving is a part of the bitcoin system and it must be placed for bitcoin to function well.

It's a good thing of course!

Halving is the reason why btc is so different to any other currency! It's because of halving that btc is a unique form of self moderated currency because of the panned reduced inflation

Looking back at 2012, we can say that the past Halving award did not cause any problems, so why is worth waiting problems after yesterday?
In 2012, and a year later for the Bitcoin everything went surprisingly well: the price of bitcoins has doubled within a few months after reducing the award for the unit, while of mining process was not as competitive environment, which he was then, because of which dropped significantly profit miners.

Bitcoin price will decrease after halving since many of people become sellers in that time but the positive aspect is halving itself.

I think that this is not true but we still have to see this of course, I think the price wil rise honestly.
The halving now has been done and I think we gonna see soon some increasing!

For now, the price is absolutely flat.
There seems to be no indication of a breakout.

A price rising as much as it did in 2013 would be amazing. I'm hoping for a similar one to come in the next spring. However, we can never know what might happen soon, maybe an event that could change the Bitcoin price forever.

The halving is good for us all, the only downside is that mining will be harder but I do not mine at all right now.
I think the halving is very gonna be very profitable anytime soon it will happen.

Yeah its good to us because we will see the fast movement of the priceof bitcoin if bitcoin is in demand we will see the fast increase of bitcoin because our supply is already been reduced by half and i think if there is no selling panic and more invsetors are come expect for 1k value..
