Bitcoin's halving event is a major event for the cryptocurrency community. It is seen as a way to control inflation and to ensure the long-term sustainability of the network.

The halving event is expected to have a positive impact on the price of bitcoin. Historically, the price of bitcoin has rallied in the lead-up to and following the halving event.
