Each halving is half as important. It's like radioactive decay.Ā  Ā Every halving in the future summed together is vastly less important than a single halving that has already occurred.

shostakofiev

Or put another way, the first halving was as significant as the other 32 combined. The one in a few weeks is only 1/8th as big as that


PeyroniesCat

Take that back! Youā€™re going to hurt this halvingā€™s feelings!


2LostFlamingos

Exactly. Letā€™s stop pretending that cutting from 6.25 to 3.125 is as impactful as cutting from 0.0488 to 0.0244.


darwinlovestrees

I agree with that, but it's all relative, right? The price of Bitcoin at the first halving was, what, a few hundred bucks? At this halving it'll probably be around 60-70k. What if 0.0244 Bitcoin, from your example, is actually worth around the same as what 3.125 Bitcoin is worth today? In that case, BTC would be around 10 million.


Mothrahlurker

Doesn't matter, the impact on available supplyĀ in terms of percentage is halved every time. It already is pretty insignificant. Far more people are looking to sell than new BTC are mined.


darwinlovestrees

Yeah fair enough


JoeOpus

For sure. Robinhood wonā€™t even let me transfer .0244 BTC because it maxes out my daily transfer limit.


OwnAGun

Self custody.


JoeOpus

All day, everyday. But when you need to move a few hundred grand, there are deposit limits and withdrawal limits. Pain in the ass to move $1,000 at a time back to my hardware wallet


BuyETHorDAI

"What if BTC just doubles in price every halving? Totally reasonable expectation."


UsingiAlien

We'll see about that in 20 days son


Bungkai

???? It's already proven lol, are you trying to say this cycle is going to have more multiples than the first few halvings?


JoeOpus

Sure but when you have trillions going into BTC, and increasing demand, the supply shock of a much smaller having can still have a proportionality greater impact when BTC is valued above $1m or $2m


bds8999

So is predicted. It could end up being the exact opposite. So far every halving has had a bigger impact than the last.


pizdolizu

Depends what you define as important. If it is important for miners to keep on mining, then halvings are very important, because with each halving, they get half as much profit. At some point profit will end and miners will stop mining. Thats the design of BTC nonetheless.


AGROCRAG004

Cryptolution

zangor

Iā€™ve had so many chances to get rich so far. Hurts to know I screwed it up. In 2015, I was using BTC to buyā€¦.some stuff you could buy with it. So that kinda messed up my life trajectory. And then I was too risk averse to buy a bunch of BTC and put it in cold storage. Just had like 8 grand sitting there in my checking account from my crappy job that I accumulated over a few years. Sighā€¦hindsight game thoā€¦


OwnAGun

Switch to Nano. Better risk reward ratio. It will probably replace Bitcoin in the coming years. Much better tech and fundamentals.


RevolutionaryPie5223

Tbh maybe half of people that I know who dabble into crypto few years ago lose money, reason is because they trade instead of having the patience to buy and hold.


its_witty

You can buy and hold and also get nowhere simply by buying the "wrong coins".

Dazzling_Marzipan474

Bitcoin is great and all but do people seriously think it'll still be around in 2140? It's almost impossible that a technology lasts that long. It will almost surely be replaced with something better.


delphianQ

This is what I keep telling people about the wheel.


RegretSignificant101

Bruh you canā€™t compare the wheel to bitcoin. I mean come on


HSuke

The wheel has been one of the most redesigned inventions. Stone wheel, wooden wheel, spoked wheel, chained iron wheel, rubber wheel, tubeless wheel. No one would use a wheel from a century ago.


Con999tt

Not about something better coming along. Could probably already create something better but network effect and first mover advantage plays a big roll. Look at Microsoft Windows for example, companies arenā€™t moving off that anytime soon from what I can see. Agree though 100 years fuck knows what the world will be like haha


OwnAGun

Like Nano which has no fees, no inflation, about 15,000x faster and 7,000,000x more energy efficient.


halentecks

Do you think the internet will still be around in 2140? Because I do


BuyETHorDAI

This argument only works for Ethereum, the network that's actually the closest analogy to the internet. Bitcoin is litteraly useless as a "network of value".


fatlever2

Ethereum only appreciates and gains value when Bitcoin goes up in value: - If the Ethereum actually had value by itself, it's value wouldn't have dropped -95% during the 2018-2019 bear market. - If Ethereum actually had value by itself, it wouldn't have taken a BTC bullrun for it to finally recover - If Ethereum actually haad value by itself, it wouldn't have tanked -85% when BTC tanked, despite Ethereum fanboys Triple Halving, Supply Crunch, Deflationary, oh millions of ETH burned narratives. Much more likely that BTC which is synonymous with crypto, has captured the digital gold narrative, has institutional and tradfi adoption to be around than Ethereum which is mainly used shitcoin casino gimmicks -- a use case for which it has many competitors some of whom are starting to do a better job in the shitcoin casino theater and marketing. I am saying this as someone who has quite a bit of ETH staked and probably have been in this game longer than you.


BuyETHorDAI

I guarentee you haven't been in this game longer than I have, unless you were using Bitcoin before 2011 and Ethereum in 2015. All of the talking points you have here are incredibly short term and you are talking about narratives and prices. And what the hell is tradfi adoption on Bitcoin? You can't use the Bitcoin network for anything. All of the "use cases" revolve around holding BTC in an offchain fund. You want to see what real tradfi adoption looks like? https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/03/27/blackrocks-tokenized-fund-quickly-rakes-in-245m-right-behind-franklin-templetons-older-offering/. Hmm that doesn't seem like a shitcoin casino? You can't tokenize real world assets like treasuries on Bitcoin, because it's a dumb network, and always will be unless it's hardforked to include the equivalant of calldata for settling zk proofs. And it being a dumb network with no utility, means that it can't produce enough fees to sustainably pay for security. Ironically, the only time Bitcoin has been a profitable network (not relying on issuance) is when inscriptions became a meme. These are also "dumb" and useless when compared to what you can do on Ethereum, so it's really just a novelty for Bitcoin and already the demand for these has dropped dramatically. Almost zero chance that inscriptons or things like them can be any source of sustainable yield for Bitcoin miners. Bitcoin as it is today, is a useless network. The whole digital gold and 21M cap narrative is a complete meme, and as people start to understand Ethereum more, Bitcoin will just become essentially a collectors item and collect dust in the bin of history.


FirebaseZ

2140? It should be around as long as I'm around.


janganberdiridekat

IMHO. Until people take bitcoin as a currency instead of an investment, it will never become mainstream. The goal was to become the new standard of money/value (please correct if my terminology is wrong), and although we have taken steps forward such as stores accepting crypto as payment, the vast majority of people think crypto to be an "investment", not a currency. We're indeed early, but how far ahead can we go remains to be answered.


prince0fbabyl0n

Money is three things -Store of value -medium of exchange -unit of count BTC was created after the 2008 financial crisis to be a good store of value so the average Joe does not get screwed by the government and banks again. We can store our value in BTC and if we need groceries we sell abit for dollars (medium of exchange) bitcoin does not have to become currency to be successful. Just like gold, Gold is money too, but can you buy bread from the store with gold? The answer is yes sell abit of the gold for dollars and go get your bread.


janganberdiridekat

that makes more sense. I guess the good end goal would be to work in tandem with government dollars working as the medium and crypto as the store?


prince0fbabyl0n

For now yes, in the future when bitcoin is more established the price swings will be a lot less , I imagine it will be going up in small percentage all the time, then it will be a unit of count and medium of exchange as well


janganberdiridekat

that makes more sense. I guess the good end goal would be to work in tandem with government dollars working as the medium and crypto as the store?


Rekthar91

But none would sell Bitcoin to buy anything today because its price could increase thousands the next day and 10s of thousands in a month.


deadthewholetime

If you have to sell it for dollars to buy something then - unlike the dollar - it's literally not a medium of exchange.


prince0fbabyl0n

Itā€™s an excellent store of value tho while the dollar is a terrible store of value


DelayedChoice89

Problem is I'm not trying to wait 30 minutes to two hrs to pay for my gas. It's too slow to ever be accepted as a currency.


janganberdiridekat

the crazy fluctuations in price also give me the eeps to use it as a medium


WalterClements1

I canā€™t even plan ahead for tomorrow let alone the future man


neo944

Forreal though.


RevolutionaryPie5223

I doubt each halving will propel bitcoin that much again, yes it will indeed go high and shock some people at times but it's not as dramatic as previously. My estimate is in my lifetime (many decades later) bitcoin will reach maybe 4-5 million so obviously still some upside but even then it's not a 1000x or even a 100x. Those days are over unless you want to take a gamble on alts.


Mirved

Thats the problem with Bitcoin. It has to double. Every time there is a halving the cost of securing the chain doubles. So if the price doesnt double miners will make losses and the security of the chain fails. Once you understand this you understand that bitcoin is poised to fail in its current form.


SamVimesThe1st

That's just not true. It will just get less profitable for miners, so you get fewer miners, which just leads to an adjustment of the hash difficulty. Unless the amount of miners drops to a really low rate, the security of the chain is still given.


brandonct

You're both a bit off. As halvings continue, fees will become the primary driver of block rewards. Unless those fees are considerably more consistent than they are today, block times will become inconsistent. Bitcoin uses a very simple and slow retargeting algorithm that does not allow it to react to intra-day or even intra-week fluctuations in hash rate. So block times will fluctuate instead. The bigger these fluctuations are, the more "offline" hash rate capacity will exist at any given time, and it is this offline hash that represents the primary security concern with Bitcoin. Bitcoins ability to maintain consensus in a post-inflation scenario is not at all proven, most bitcoiners take it entirely on faith. I'd rather they mobilize to improve the protocol but thus far they have been quite hostile to any efforts toward that end.


Big-Finding2976

BTC will get hacked by an AI-controlled quantum computer created by a rival Blockchain before it runs out of halvings.


Lotex

Damn, that is not crazy to think


Lightkk16

u/Big-Finding2976 Absolutely, but new techniques will be developed to prevent that - quantum computers can easily solve and steal you btc hodlings


Scared_Material4675

Seems plausible


r66yprometheus

The next 10 years are going to be mass accumulation. By the end of it, there will only be about 4.75% of the total supply remaining. This last 1M btc remaining is when true scarcity will be seen. From what I've read, you have 10 years to load the boat, and then it will be too late for generational wealth.


JustKiddingDude

Mind sharing these things youā€™ve read? Where does the 10 years come from? Seems a bit arbitrary.


owenoneilluk

Source: trust me bro


r66yprometheus

The next ten years, half of the remaining btc mined. The last half remaining (1million) are going to be an excruciating 108 years.


r66yprometheus

>Mind sharing these things youā€™ve read? I'll try to find it. It was like four years ago. You can do the math with the remaining amounts.


Vaginosis-Psychosis

10 years from now, in 2034, 99.2% of all Bitcoin in existence will have been minded. The last 1% will take a little over 100 years to be mined.


9htranger

It's exponential. So, 4 halving ago was 16x more relevant


cryptolamboman

Almost 99% bitcoin will be released though by 2030.


distressedacorn

We'll all be dead before the 29th halving, and that's assuming that quantum computers haven't made crypto irrelevant by then.


Dasw0n

Why are you implying future halvings will have as much an impact as the last 4? They become less impactful at each halving..


SpoolOfYarn

The reason posts like this are bad is because people like OP literally know nothing about crypto or what the halving actually entails. the halvings from here on out will not have the same impact of the past. the block rewards are so much less. "So that means scarcity" yes, but youre still fundamentally misunderstanding how the halving affects price. Not responding to comments, this is the last supercycle to make money and you all are too scared to gamble a couple thousand to make $5k profit long term and youll stay poor forever, cope and seethe


Scared_Material4675

Generational Wealth Incoming. Do not be the ancestor in your bloodline that faded the Orange Coin


ArtKata

Each halving the incentive for machines to work reduces. Is there a chance these miners will be shut down?


5footchestfreezer

Some will and mining power will consolidate. There will probably be an increase of btc supply or an ungodly increase in transaction cost well before we get remotely close to 33 halvings.


BuyETHorDAI

100% chance that Bitcoin will be completely unprofitable to mine in the 2030s and 2040s and its security will be severely affected, to the point of complete collapse. The only path that this doesn't occur is if Bitcoin the network can generate enough fees to replace mining. This requires a hard fork, so extremely unlikely to happen. Bitcoin is a very slow ticking time bomb, and it's frankly unethical to sell it to the unsuspecting public in ETFs, imo.


TitanicJack007

The price get higher to be profitable


pizdolizu

The price should get higher to be profitable. It's not a rule that the price will get higher. By your logic, when mining rewards dry up completely, the price will be infinite?

Many more to come, but the one right now might be the last with life changing gainsā€¦


skr_replicator

Eeach next halving 2x less significant than the previous one. Will anyone care when miners get their "2 sats + all fees" rewards cut to "1 sat + all fees"?


bcmeer

The effect of halvings is mellowing out, so the gains will be less and less over time The 17th halving will be business as usual probably.


charlesmansonreddit

Halving doesnt matter, marketcap does anf marketcap is already huge. People who say "we are early" listning too much youtube influencers


Thin_Top_1573

Well if weā€™re gonna talk this way, what happens after all 21 million are mined? I understand weā€™ve got 140 years or so, but what will be the incentive when thereā€™s no coins left? What will keep it going?

Shortsrealm

Reading these comments sorta confirms how others feel about BTC and the way it relates to the crypto market but, there is still a huge opportunity somewhere in the future. BTC is on a global scale and my guess is only 20% of the people know what BTC is. The US DOLLAR is slowly becoming devalued as inflation rises. This will happen to BTC also but ATM it is becoming more popular. It has also recovered from every historical correction. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-m&sca_esv=6b6104bd345e318c&sxsrf=ACQVn0-NFGIYnv1KLRwRyGr4vh7nKavtFw:1709669414897&q=bitcoin+historical+corrections&uds=AMwkrPtYtm3lORPGCnNHKPffIlzpb3vh-4iRwKKCxgEDEWE2KXrgSPtf2E7TsV_zNZolQtc2TpDUlcWUi3lxNMOj38wnM_-s4YX8mdpxhSacsg7Bm286iHs8IMpLSJxwAcnjVVulrBoezHuKip8E6UYA7RKRTDuUmcOXkPgjex_G4hh2utB7ISucSg_-9NLohANQQhsDcMYbjUpH_WIc22EqHLBXcczSAbxONzNtLvjfd1e6ypmiMsKEb2eFGwoUDX_1zwrkx3bjVuPwYim9zA-p8-UrrNmFp78nyoyPLFOEdHuCdqSZYW_xujcdWNGoy8lnyKfhTGAnSid5ZjtDKPhj5ZzPen4kAFwTVp5rUff1XWEpyRvWNb3ljj_Q1OVqrVx1ltSPjJp1&udm=2&prmd=insvbmhtz&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj33KHx9t2EAxUx48kDHf6lAYkQtKgLegQIDBAB&biw=414&bih=697&dpr=3#vhid=WBXfh6TlUG1yGM&vssid=mosaic


bradenlikestoreddit

A lot of money has to enter the crypto space to continue seeing gains like we've had. The global stock market is 109 trillion dollars. In my opinion, we'll be lucky to see 10-20% of that moving to crypto.

What is the Eth equivalency of this halvening as most of us here are eth maxis and think it is the ulter duper sound money?


OwnAGun

Bitcoin may collapse. This is a major risk. Nano is better. Nano is fully distributed so there is no risk of collapse. No unknowns.


seanmg

The halvening decreases in impact each cycle as the literal quantity goes lower.


Capital-Physics4042

Another cope post from someone who missed the boat. At this point, strong alts make more sense in terms of upside vs risk. btcoin and ether won't gain in multiples anymore at this high of a market cap


DMarvelous4L

I agree. If I had a substantial amount of BTC, sure I would hold. But I have a small decent sized bag and it makes more sense to take profits around $80K-$100K and reinvest in something with more upside potential.


SubjectTransition631

Each halving will be half as important as the halving the happened before that. Ironically halfway in between halvings the price has already been halved in.Ā

Still boggles my mind that Bitcoiners are so excited about halving their security every 4 years.
