Halving
Reduction programmee de la recompense de bloc de 50%.
Halving events cut the block reward that miners receive in half at predetermined intervals. Bitcoin halvings occur every 210,000 blocks (roughly every four years). The reward started at 50 BTC per block in 2009 and has since halved to 25, 12.5, 6.25, and 3.125 BTC.
Halving reduces the rate at which new coins enter circulation, creating deflationary supply pressure. If demand remains constant or grows while new supply shrinks, economic theory suggests upward price pressure. Historically, Bitcoin's price has risen significantly in the 12-18 months following each halving.
While halvings are predictable and theoretically priced in, their psychological impact on the market is substantial. They serve as narrative focal points that attract media attention, new investors, and renewed discussion about Bitcoin's scarcity model.
Halvings are the most important supply-side events in Bitcoin's monetary policy, historically correlating with the start of major bull market cycles.
