Crypto World: The Bitcoin Halving Is Set To Shake Up The Crypto’s Price And The Network’s Miners

The Bitcoin halving takes place roughly every four years, and the technical event cuts the reward pays out to miners for validating blocks of transactions. This creates a scarcity effect that could drive up the price of the cryptocurrency, while cutting miners’ revenue, meaning more efficient miners perform better post-halving. Watch the video above to learn more about what the halving means for both crypto markets, and for the bitcoin miners validating transactions on the network.

Crypto World: The Bitcoin Halving Is Set To Shake Up The Crypto’s Price And The Network’s Miners

[Susanhartman.]

I'm admittedly bummed that I didn't go with my gut instinct & buy bitcoin few months back when it was $20k - $25k range. is it too late to get in and make profits? i have set aside $450k to get fully invested this year

[AliceAnderson-inet]

You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life

[MagdalenaHedlund]

I remember when I just got into crypto back in 2019 but later in 2020 I ended up selling it because I was dumb and I didn't understand it. I studied and learned and now I know how it works. Got back into crypto early in 2023 with 10k and I’m up with 128k in a short period of time .This comment serves as motivation for all those who have invested and continue to invest in cryptocurrencies with so many losses, do not give up, cryptocurrencies can change your life. Do your best to connect with the right people and you will surely see changes.

[RebaAbernathy]

Hit 70k today. I'm really grateful for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started crypto trading with 5k in July 2023<<

[WendyHartmann-sh]

For the newbie if you are actually trading in the crypto space and you don't have a sound mentor. Then you are certainly going to get liquidated in 90% of your trades. Yeah that's the sad truth. I remember when I just got into crypto back in 2019 but later in 2020 I ended up selling it because I have lost alot trading all by myself without a guide. Got back into crypto early in 2023 with $10k and I’m up with $128k in a short period of time.

I realized that the secret to making a million is saving for a better investment. I always tell myself you don't need that new Maserati or that vacation just yet. That mindset helped me make more money investing. For example last year I invested 30k in crypto and made about $246k, but guess what? I put it all back and traded again and now I am rounding up close to a million.

[NicholasBall]

With the halving fast approaching and the approval of Bitcoin ETFs, so many think bitcoin will exceed $100k. I don't want to miss out on this chance. I want to invest my $210k savings now, but I'm worried if it's too late to make the most profit.

[bernadofelix]

With the ETF approved, institutions will need to buy Bitcoin for their ETF. There will be marked increase in demand, can i get in and still make profits? i have set aside $250k to get fully invested this year

[jameswood]

I'm overall outperforming a lot of assets by holding Bitcoin and a few other top crypto altcoins.
When my percentage goes down it goes down about double that of the s&p100/500 but when it goes up it goes up like 5 times the S&P rate.

[rannyorton]

I merely buy-and-hold Crypto, and it gladdens my heart that this is all happening now. eight months ago, I made sizable purchases, and since we are now approaching a bull run, I know i'll gain all i lost. What are the best Altcoins to acquire?

[RickWatson-xugw]

It has now been three months since the first spot Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) launched. I'm considering investing over $300k but uncertain about how to minimize risks.

[StephenMargaret-]

From $37K to $45K that's the minimum range of profit return every week I thinks it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family.

[isauraflores]

Despite all the financial struggles i and my family faced, everything is finally falling into place! $47, 000 weekly profit and riches I'll always praise the Lord

[MaiChiPham-fztr]

Guys, it is easy just trade small but go big, trade qqq same day options at proven entry points and times . For example, trade a two legged pullback for a reversal above a range between 1130-12PM ET . I look for trades every day but go in only once a week during 1130-145pm ET, I never go in because I need to ! Remember quality over quantity . I usually make 100-1100 percent at proven entry points . Before when I lacked patience no e and had constant regret, I lost money . I lost money because I went in when I felt I was missing an opportunity. Remember, trade at proven concepts and times on the chart !!!

[hillarychuks]

I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Michelle Stewart.

[blessingderue]

Hello 👋🏻 Do you help people with investing in crypto? I just don't know which and when to invest, please help.

[maybedeadcatz]

I like how the comment section clearly has loads of bots shilling cryptoscams.

[SilasFenton]

I am so happy that I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever. I am a single mother and I live in Spain, I bought my second house in September and I hope to retire next year at 40 if all goes well. thanks to Louise O'Brien for helping me achieve this.

[MarkLeo-khyv]

Thank you. Crypto education is what the world needs the most right now. I don’t think that buy and hold is a valid investment strategy anymore. Not too diluted and to a degree, follows Sonal Collinsfx trading ideas and signal tips for your portfolio growth and aggressiveness. she is a woman who has not only taught me what the cryptocurrency trading world looks like but a secret to uplift my finance. Buying crypto and waiting for the price to shoot up is not the best way to invest in the market but buying and trading is Boston

[jdkgcp]

Dumping real money into fake money. No thanks.
