What is a Bitcoin halving?

Bitcoin halving

Bitcoin halving explained

Bitcoin halving happens around every four years and reduces by half the reward for mining new Bitcoins. Each halving decreases the number of new Bitcoins awarded to miners for each block mined. The periodic halvings control new Bitcoin supply, fight inflation, and keep Bitcoin scarce. Satoshi Nakamoto integrated it into Bitcoin's design, limiting total coins to 21 million.

Fiat currency vs BTC value

What does it mean for you?

Bitcoin Halving plays a central role in controlling the amount of new Bitcoin introduced into the market, making the cryptocurrency more akin to a store of value like gold rather than a fiat currency. It boosts value, curbs inflation, and encourages mining, potentially raising prices with high demand.

Why the months prior are important

Bitcoin halving can drive up prices by limiting new supply, but it also reduces miner earnings and could impact network security, potentially affecting Bitcoin's stability.
