🪙 What is Bitcoin Halving?
Bitcoin Halving is a structural mechanism that happens approximately every four years.
At this point, the block rewards miners receive for mining new blocks will be halved.
Bitcoin was designed from the beginning with a total supply cap of 21 million.
The halving mechanism exists as a core design to gradually slow down the issuance rate of Bitcoin.
👉 In other words, the halving is not so much an 'event',
Rather, it is a systemic device to maintain the scarcity of Bitcoin.
📉 Why is the halving so important?
The reason the halving attracts attention is that — supply decreases.
The number of new Bitcoins flowing into the market decreases
The selling pressure from miners is relatively reduced
The market's perception of 'scarcity' continues to strengthen
When demand remains unchanged or continues to grow, while supply decreases,
prices naturally find it easier to form upward pressure.
📊 Reviewing the performance after several past halvings:
2012 Halving → Upward cycle begins
2016 Halving → Long-term bull market
2020 Halving → Set a historical high
Similar trends have appeared multiple times.
⚠️ Halving ≠ Immediate price increase
Many people expect a surge immediately on or after the halving day.
But the logic of the market is not that simple.
📌 Because the timing of the halving is known in advance,
related expectations are often reflected in the price in advance.
Therefore, after the halving, it is often seen:
Consolidation
Short-term correction
Volatility decreases
👉 Therefore, rather than saying the halving is a 'signal for immediate price increase',
it is better understood as an important reference point for medium to long-term trend changes.
🔍 How to view the market after the halving in 2024~2025?
The market environment for this halving is significantly different from the past.
Bitcoin ETF approved
Institutional funds continue to enter the market
Macroeconomic factors (interest rates, liquidity) have a deepening impact
Under multiple factors combined,
it is difficult to assert that the market will completely replicate past trend patterns.
But even so, the halving still has a profound impact on market structure in the following aspects:
✅ Supply continues to tighten
✅ Mining structure changes
✅ Willingness to hold long-term increases
🧠 More realistic strategies for responding to the halving
Rather than treating the halving as a short-term trading point,
it is better to view it as a key benchmark for understanding Bitcoin's long-term value structure.
✔️ Gradual allocation
✔️ Avoid excessive leverage
✔️ Make judgments from a cyclical perspective
During the halving cycle, such strategies are usually more robust.
🎯 In summary
Bitcoin Halving
📌 It is not an event that guarantees a price increase.
📌 Instead, it is about understanding the core mechanism of Bitcoin's scarcity and long-term structure.
