The Bitcoin network has a programmed schedule to create new Bitcoin approximately every 10 minutes for “miners” protecting the network with powerful computers.

Today's Halving is extra special because for the first time ever Bitcoin will become more scarce than gold.
Bitcoin continues to prove itself as a store of value and the Halving is a key reason why.
Happy Halving!

@SenLummis
About every 4 years, the programmed amount of Bitcoin created every 10 minutes is cut in half, aka the “Halving.”
This ensures the supply is always increasing relative to the amount being created.
Supply & demand is the basis of economics and Bitcoin is no different.

The 'Halving' is one of Bitcoin’s ingenious features that creates scarcity and value, in the same way that scarcity in gold creates value.
