  Bitcoin halving is a process that occurs every four years in the Bitcoin network. It involves reducing the block reward given to miners for validating transactions and adding them to the blockchain. This reduction in reward has a direct impact on the supply and price of bitcoin. By reducing the rate at which new bitcoins are created, halving creates scarcity and increases the demand for bitcoin. This increased demand, coupled with a limited supply, often leads to an increase in the price of bitcoin. Bitcoin halving is an important event in the cryptocurrency industry as it helps maintain the integrity and value of the Bitcoin network.
