Post by: secco on May 01, 2020, 11:21:04 AM
Hello my dear forum member.

This is Secco, admin of Bitcoin Garden Forum, writing. Welcome to this new edition of the Bitcoin Garden Newsletter.

Happy Labor Day! While COVID19 keep spreading all around the world and half of the world's population told to stay home, Bitcoin seems to be back in its tracks, close to the 9K area. And halving is approaching!

BITCOIN HALVING, ETA 12 MAY 2020: As part of Bitcoin's coin issuance, miners are rewarded a certain amount of bitcoins whenever a block is produced, approximately every ten minutes. When Bitcoin first started, 50 Bitcoins per block were given as a reward to miners. After every 210,000 blocks are mined, approximately every 4 years, the block reward halves and will keep on halving until the block reward per block becomes 0 (approximately by year 2140). As of now, the block reward is 12.5 coins per block and will decrease to 6.25 coins per block post halving.
