If the price doesnt rise then the miners stop mining because of lack of profit, Once this happens the network becomes less secure and bitcoin starts dying off. Whats to stop this from happening? Maybe we are getting to prices that cant be maintained with the current user base. I wasnt here at the last halfing and the price will need to be much higher so im not too sure what will happen.
I do not know what is going to happen after that because that is something that only the future will tell us. At the moment I am waiting for the halving to come by and what the price is going to be after that.
The price shall not rise in the next month also due to the halving. The price will rise due to other factors.
