Every four years, Bitcoin goes through an event called halving, which cuts in half the reward given to miners. This reduces the supply of new BTCs in the market — and historically, that's when things start to heat up.
But it's not just Bitcoin that feels the effects.
After the halving, many investors expect the price of BTC to rise. When this happens, a good portion of the profit is reallocated to altcoins in search of greater multiples. This is what we call the "halving domino effect": first Bitcoin rises, then comes the altcoin season.
📈 For example:
After the 2016 halving, Bitcoin soared in 2017 — and Ethereum, Ripple, and other altcoins exploded along with it.
In 2020, history repeated itself. Months after the halving, the crypto market experienced one of the largest bull runs in history.
Sure, this does not guarantee that the same will happen in the next cycle. But understanding this pattern can help you position yourself better in the market.
💡 And you? Will you wait for BTC to rise or are you already keeping an eye on the altcoins that might stand out post-halving?
