Hello there and how was your weekend?
Ours didnβt go as plannedβ¦ especially with the halving having little effect on pricesβ¦ it felt uneventful for something that was all over the headlines. However, the supply shock usually takes a few months to be priced in after the halving.
On the bright side, Runes launched, and miners made over $106m in feesβ¦ 5x what they made from previous halvingsβ¦
However, here is the price of Bitcoin at the time of the previous halving events versus the following yearβs peak price of BTC:
November 28, 2012: $13 β‘οΈ $1,163
July 9, 2016: $664 β‘οΈ $19,666
May 11, 2020: $8,722 β‘οΈ $69,000
April 19, 2024: $65,506 β‘οΈ _______
Where do you think Bitcoin will be at the end of this peak?

Bitcoin Halving 2024 β Done and dusted
Bitcoin has successfully gone through its fourth-ever halving event after posting its 840,000th block, the point at which mining rewards are slashed in half once again. The event has the crypto community eagerly awaiting whatβs next for Bitcoinβs price, with some predictions reaching as high as $250,000.
