maybe this will be a little different from the previous halving.
if if the same, it is likely to go down first before halving and a few weeks after halving the price of bitcoin rises continuously.
This is a lot different then the 2012 1/2 ing.
This is somewhat different the the 2016 1/2 ing.
Back in 2012 there were no really big gear companies.
In 2016 bitmain was fairly big in both market share and wealth.
In 2020 bitmain is big in both market share and wealth.
they have a huge interest in price rise to be able to sell gear.
canaan/avalon
whatsminer
innosilicon
all want a price rise to sell their gear.
Newer gear 5nm is coming out very soon.
It may be 20% better then the 37 watt a th gear on market.
so. 37 x .8 = 29-30 watt gear. if coins are only 9000 selling gear will be hard to do for them.
they all have a huge incentive to push price to 13000 to be able to sell new gear.
I think this 1/2 ing is the first 1/2 ing that many builders will attempt to boost prices hard.
2012 not true
2016. somewhat true
2020. absolutely true.
