If you halve, you will appreciate. Half a bitcoin is more valuable?
Impact of the recent outbreak

I can't help but care about my heart!
So starting today

Dear friends,
Speaking of hot spots in 2020
Bitcoin halving is the number one hot topic
To understand the halving event
We have to start with Bitcoin's mysterious dad
Satoshi Nakamoto, the father of Bitcoin. After the invention of Bitcoin, he gradually faded out of people's vision. Due to his perfect confidentiality, no one can confirm his true identity so far
The original intention of Satoshi Nakamoto to invent Bitcoin
I hope to invent one
Currency not under anyone's control
Different from the U.S. dollar and soft sister coin that the country can issue indefinitely
Limited total amount of Bitcoin
And transactions are completed point-to-point directly
And the way to get Bitcoin is "mining"
As for the mining process, we can understand it this way
To promote this currency early
Satoshi Nakamoto set up for Bitcoin
" The person who digs me first gets more" attribute
Simply put, a new block is generated every ten minutes
And the math problems in the seal block will become more and more difficult
Can be unlocked with a personal computer in the beginning
But as the difficulty increases
Need to use a more professional mining machine to unlock
At the same time every 210,000 blocks are generated (about 4 years)
Block reward is reduced by half
In other words, we say that Bitcoin is halved
Initially, the reward in each block was 50 Bitcoins
In 2012, the first halving occurred
Rewards became 25
After another four years, it became 12.5
Four more years have passed, this year
Block rewards will be halved again in May to 6.25
At this time, there may be a really cute expression that tears the paper to play.
A piece of paper can be torn in half as long as I want
So according to this principle, can Bitcoin be halved indefinitely?
Since the total amount of Bitcoin is limited
So to a certain number of years
Block reward will be halved to infinitely low
Actually, 21 million bitcoins will not exist in the strict sense.
According to Bitcoin's supply formula
The actual number of Bitcoins is 20,999,999.9796
According to the setting of the halving mechanism
All Bitcoins will be mined in 2140
Here we are not hard to find
The halving mechanism is actually an early operating solution for Bitcoin.
Satoshi Nakamoto adopted this "early bird effect"
Attracting the earliest seed users for Bitcoin
Most of these early users were tech homes, geeks
Many of them are in later blockchain history
Left a thick stroke
A little brother named Laszlo, who used 1w bitcoin for his favorite stick! John Pizza and upload photos online
And the reason why the halving caused extremely high heat
It ’s because after the first two halvings,
The market has ushered in a wave of super prices
The first time was November 28, 2012
After the 210,000th block is generated
Block reward changed from 50 to 25
Over the next year
Coin price all the way from $ 12.3
Until the peak of $ 1175 on November 30, 2013
It is worth mentioning that the difficulty of mining increased during this period
The era of personal computer mining is basically over
The rise of specialized mines
The second halving took place on July 9, 2016
After the 420,000th block is generated
Block reward changed from 25 to 12.5
Niu God is coming again, pulling Bitcoin from $ 654, another wave of rush
Reached an all-time high of $ 19891 on December 16, 2017
The highest price of the currency that has not been broken so far
From historical data, after each halving
Bitcoin prices have indeed ushered in a wave of rise
So people halved the third coming
Have various conjectures
But the fact that the halving will definitely bring a bull market is not true.
Even the only weak link between the two
Only changes in supply and demand
From another perspective, although Bitcoin has skyrocketed,
But the overall trend is upward
So no matter what time
There will basically be a rising trend around here
So there is no necessary connection between halving and the bull market.
It ’s just that the first two halvings have coincided with a sharp rise.
And investors sincerely hope to find a certain law in the ups and downs of the k-line.
But even if we can do a comprehensive summary
No one can guarantee accurate prediction
Maybe this is the charm of the market.
We will continue to update Blocking; if you have any questions or suggestions, please contact us!
