Just because there is a shortage or lack of production of certain goods doesn't mean its price will increase. This only happens to goods that have a firm function in a society. Currently, bitcoin in itself does not have a function apart from being a very speculative store of value. Given its volatility currently, in the past and having hopes of future price increases by factors as those described by OP, bitcoin will come nowhere close to being used as a currency, therefore the notion of it being used as a mainstream currency is as well nonsensical. I'm not saying bitcoin will not increase in price in the future, on the contrary I think it will. What I am saying is that this kind of prediction for a speculative currency is pointless.

thing is bitcoin is roughly made out of 3 entities: holders, traders, miners
1) holders will hold until price goes up significantly
2) traders will trade around short term volatility
3) miners will sell to cover their electricity costs/invest into new gear

if price is too low for miners to profit, they will turn more into holders and the sell pressure is drastically reduced

so basically if cost to mine 1 bitcoin is doubled, the price will follow shortly as the market will be mostly holders until then

It's called a manufactured demand.

Just like fashion cloths, or works of art.
Sure the materials used is menial for the cost. The name, the brand is what adds value.

Now, as satoshi said in the white paper, computers will get faster, more efficient and larger only making it cheaper for miners to acquire.

Bitcoin will rise in price solely from demand and that's just how the market works.
Do you think miners sell everything immediately?
They're storing it just the same way a mineral mining company would.
Use enough and sell at market price to operate, but that may only be 10% of what they acquired that year. And the year before they earned even more btc at a lower price that they can sell for double triple 5-10 times what it cost to produce years ago.
That is how a good mining operation works and the whole idea of "mining transactions" is actually based on how
Mineral mining operations work.

Anyways, if you want to make money just keep buying into btc. That's all you have to do. 50 bucks a week or 10% of your paycheque or whatever. As long as you keep buying your average cost decreases while your stack increases. Do this for 2 years at any point in history for bitcoin and your in the black.

>> No.11473929

>>11473789
No it doesn't you mong.
The whole mining argument makes no fucking sense. There still had to be demand. If the cost of mining BTC surpasses the price of BTC people will just stop mining. Has power is reduced and so the difficulty drops, and so the cost to mine drops. People won't mine if they can't sell for a profit. Miners aren't all hodl fags that refuse to sell and will mine forever.
Mining will always be profitable, but that's due to the cost of mining fluctuating not because BTC will go to a hundred bazillion dollars

>> No.11474342

No, you are implying that price doubles when mining reward halves. When the reward halves, incentive to mine halves. Bitcoin's daily trading volume is around 500k BTC, the 1800 or so that are mined are a drop in the bucket. Sentiment drives the market, not mining supply, so you can't extrapolate forwards assuming overall mining expenditure remains the same, because you have nothing to justify that assumption.

>> No.11474351

>>11474293
Dude, you have to be able to see that it's worth it at the time to drop in 15k.
If you bought one btc for 16k all in you'd be crying so hard.
If you started to dca at 16k you wouldn't have bought it for for 16k.
Atleast by this time you'd have more then just 1 btc.

There's a reason warren buffet dosent lose money. No matter what if the stocks are dropping they always have enough to tack on more lowering how much it cost them to buy each stock. In the end, decreasing total loss IF they can't get out in time.
The result of them buying more usually starts little rallies and allows them to Always exit in profit.

If you have enough money you can decrease loses. That's why you don't play stock markets with 100 dollars.
