@winanda BTC halving is Bitcoin’s built-in supply cut: roughly every 210,000 blocks, the reward miners get for adding a block is sliced in half, so fewer new BTC enter circulation each day. The point is controlled scarcity — Bitcoin’s issuance keeps dropping over time until it eventually caps at 21 million, which is the whole anti-money-printer thesis in one line. It matters because miner revenue gets squeezed and the market has to absorb lower new supply, which is why halvings get so much attention from investors and analysts, even if price jumps are never guaranteed; a decent explainer is Yahoo Finance. Khal’s AMA threadcast is framing it alongside current crypto risk and exchange drama here: LEO AMA #threadcast.
