no offense to anyone here, but people are so stupid for thinking that 4 year cycles will continue on forever. BTC is still in its infancy. I wouldn't even call it "Early adoption" stage. we're not even there yet.

once BTC has the backing of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA for the first time, this will ignite an arms race to acquire as many BTC as possible as quickly as possible. BTC halving will no longer have a material impact to price since obviously most coins are already mined. prices will be dictated purely by supply and demand. and in the short term (2025), we will see some wild swings with whales selling, other whales buying, but prices will normalize at a much higher level than it is today. we will see some volatility like all asset classes do, but it won't be +/- 10% daily swings, nor will it be +/- 50% annual swings. we will grow exponentially the next few years, and perhaps a small step function graph in halving years, but in-between, I see consistent and stable upwards movement
