what is Bitcoin halving

‎Incase this is your first time coming across Bitcoin halving here's a brief explanation based on my research, Bitcoin miners solve complex problems to add a newblock to the blockchain, as a result they earn new bitcoins.
‎Note this reward is cut into half every 4 years now that's what we call halving
‎
‎That being said let's go into the main topic
‎Why halving still matters in 2025,
‎+ Now in 2024, the fourth halving took place, half way through 2025.....the questions people keep asking is did it really matter? Is the price still affected??
‎the answer is yes .....but the reason is down below 👇

Break Downs

‎In Bitcoin halving, the miner receives 50% less for validating transactions
‎

2009- 50 BTC per block
2012- 25 BTC
2016- 12.5 BTC
2020- 6.25 BTC
2024- 3.125 BTC
‎
‎From my research, this is called scarcity mechanism, which is designed to control Inflation and imitate the way gold is harder to mine over time which insane.

‎Now down to the second part of the topic
‎
why it still matters in 2025

Supply shock is still playing out:
‎After halving is complete, is less and less percentage of BTC entering the market.
‎Then demands tend to remain the same(or increasing), the supply crunch tends to elevate prices often after several months.
‎
Investor Sentiment Shifts
‎
‎Historically, halvings have marked the beginning of major bull runs:
‎
‎2012 & 2013: 10x increase
‎
‎2016 & 2017: 20x increase
‎
‎2020 & 2021: 6x increase
‎
‎2024 & ? (2025 may still be the "catch-up" year) as they say
‎
‎The 2024 halving may be behind us, but the ripple effects are not. In 2025, we are likely still in the middle of a long-term shift. Don’t let short-term noise make you miss the bigger picture.
‎
‎Bitcoin halvings are built to shape the future — and 2025 is still part of that future.✅
