📌 Bitcoin Halving – Why It’s a Big Deal

Every 210,000 blocks (roughly every 4 years), something special happens in the Bitcoin world — it’s called a Halving.


💡 What is it?

The block reward for miners is cut in half.


In 2009: 50 BTC per block


2012: 25 BTC


2016: 12.5 BTC


2020: 6.25 BTC


2024: 3.125 BTC


📈 Why it matters:


Reduces the rate at which new Bitcoins are created


Increases scarcity (like digital gold)


Historically followed by major price growth


Satoshi designed this so Bitcoin would stay limited — only 21 million BTC will ever exist.


Halving keeps Bitcoin deflationary and valuable over time.
