I have three questions related to the July block reward halving:

1. Is it reasonable to suggest that miners' profits will be cut by about 50% with the halving?
2. As rewards for processing blocks continues to decrease, will we reach a point where only one or two of the largest mining companies will be able to profit from mining?
3. What happens when the block reward reaches zero?

3 won't happen as 1/2 of 1/2 of 1/2 of 1/2 never goes to zero. It just gets smaller and approaches zero.

2. Don't know it can not be answered with a sure answer.

1. No as the correct answer is some miners will go,for a small.profit to zero profit or a loss. Some will be cut less then fifty percent
Some will be cut by more then fifty percent.

I make 2 assumptions to.answer #1 I kept the diff the same along with the price .

I could,do a long demo to,show many possible reductions in profits.

But a simple about 50% is not a good estimate. Because some miners are right on the border of no profit they should go to,a loss
