What is Bitcoin halving?

A cryptocurrency network blockchain halving events is a scheduled point in time when the mining rewards are cut down to half by the blockchain. This would mean that where the costs of the mining operations remain the same, the reward is cut off by fifty-percent (50%) for the miners.

All cryptocurrencies go through a halving event to ensure that the transaction prices are kept low for the traders and users.

Impact on Bitcoin Price

Historical data reveals that the Bitcoin price rose from twelve dollars ($12) to fourteen dollars ($14) right after the first halving event in 2012.

While, only weeks after the second halving, Bitcoin price started the historic rally that soared its price from five hundred and eighty-two dollars ($582) to the all-time high of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000).

After the next halving instead of eighteen hundred (BTC 1,800) new Bitcoins available per day. Which means miners would only be able to mine nine-hundred Bitcoins (BTC 900) available. If there is more demand than nine hundred Bitcoin (BTC900) on any given day, the price will go up.

The historical pattern shows Bitcoin prices booming one year after each previous halving. However, history doesn’t always paint a complete picture when it comes to the Bitcoin markets.

Major facts about the bitcoin halving 2020:

  • The halving is expected to happen in May/June 2020.
  • Bitcoin creation will be limited to only nine hundred (900) Bitcoins per day.
  • About eighty-five percent (85%) of Bitcoins will be mined by the halving event.
  • After the halving, only over three million Bitcoins (BTC 3.15 M ) will be left unmined.
  • Historically each Halving marked the beginning of New bitcoin bull run.

At the time of the 2020 halving, over eighteen and a quarter million Bitcoin (18,375,000 BTC) would have been mined. The figure makes almost eighty-five percent (85%) of the total Bitcoin supply.

Now, many estimate that over twenty-five percent (25%) of all Bitcoins have been already lost. This would mean that at the time of the halving there would in fact only be almost fourteen million Bitcoin (BTC 13,700,000) available. That’s not even 0.002 Bitcoin for every human on Earth!
