I personally dont have much bitcoin to hold to start with..

So this whole scenario of if halving is good or bad is on a neutral point for me. I know I wont be selling it despite the prices, but the halving for anyone above 1 btc I feel like a pretty good pay for for some.

But if less btc is being rewarded, I`d assume it would eventually sky rocket?

128 days until the halving from now aprox. the prices can rise before than this happens...........................

Funny how its 3-4 months still left to go.. and you see peoples overwhelming reaction already..

The price jumped about $450 so by the time the actual sell off comes it`ll be in the high $600-700 I`m hoping?

Which is why I'm saying it's already priced in Wink

Yeah, this time we can't predict whats gonna happen after halving. It is sure that price has started increase which is a great news for all users.

The price will start increasing very soon. It will before the actual halving. But it also depends on other things such as block size increase.

funny thing, is that the price will begin to increase not because of the halvng, but because everyone is assuming that it willincrease, so they will beginn to buy it en-mass, and start the actual increase of the price

so the speculator once again will be the real maker of the increase

Hehe yes that's possible.
What I'm most curious about is when it will start happen and for how long.
Will it be a constant increase over a few weeks, months? A crazy **cking ride for a few days? Or will it be an increase with some pauses and slight corrections?

It's happening right now and you're apparently not noticing. Bitcoin has doubled since August and people keep asking "when is it gonna happen, when is it gonna happen?" The question they should be asking instead is "Where have I been while it's been happening?"

It's been happening, but why people not aware of it is, just the bitcoin nature is always has a fluctuating price variation. During the past halving users observed a high percent growth than what is going on at present.

I don't think the last halving can be compared to this one. When the last halving occurred, bitcoin was far more in its infancy than it is now. Price appreciation at that time almost certainly had nothing to do with the halving and everything to do with increasing public adoption and increasing demand. I would not attribute the price increase during the last halving to the halving.

The halving is coming this year and I believe its a good thing but its also bad this is because of the people that are the target of the halving( the miners) they will lose profit.
For other people that are holding their bitcoin it will be pretty sweet if you ask me.

Yes,it will be interesting to see how all this will progress.
Because we have just 1 known data and it is 12.5BTC per block.
We do not know how many miners will give up.
We do not know how many people will keep up mining with lost.

Is this the reason for the current increase in bitcoin price to over $400?


no i think we are just returning to the previous point, after the drama by mike ended, and all the fud around it is died, there is probably someone who dumped eth for bitcoin in the middle

Your (non-fee) security against double spending is cut in half. 

If that worries you, take a look at the rationale behind woodcoin, which seeks to find a balance between inflation and security against the double spend.

In the last four months, we've gone from the low-to-mid 200's to about $400. What makes you think that isn't the run up to the halving? Bitcoin is up over 70% in the last four months. Maybe you missed it. I'm hopeful it will continue to go up, but I won't be surprised if it's reached its high point already related to the halving hype.

I hope not wrong, but the price will go up further still, some peoples  think that price will drop down after halving until the same levels than now, but I see unlikely so a new floor should emerge. BTC is strong if we are considering for example the increase  ETH, many peoples expected that bitcoiners could only switch to ETH something that dont happened. Talk of a new price would be a bit random but the price goes up and stays at a new level sounds very likely.

I think halving would be good for bitcoin as the price would climb up after halving but not sure how long it will remain stable, as there is possibility that price will drop down after halving.

Yeah, you are right...
There is a possibility of price rise BEFORE halving and not after, as when halving happens, people will surely dump, so be ready to see a very big price hike showing new ATH to us before halving takes place...

Yeah and even a possibility for it to rise A LOT before and then go down as hell after the halving ^^
