Bitcoin's Halving Event Set to Drive Demand and Increase Price, But Uncertainty Remains
Bitcoin's halving event, which occurs every four years and reduces the amount of new bitcoins available daily to digital miners by 50%, is set to happen on Saturday. This is a programmed event in the bitcoin ecosystem designed to maintain the currency's limited supply and store of value. The 2024 halving is expected to drive demand for bitcoin and increase its price, as seen in the aftermath of the previous three halvings. While halvings may present challenges for miners, they could lead to consolidation and more profitable companies for investors. Analyst Gautam Chhugani believes that new demand catalysts, such as the approval of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds, have contributed to the positive price action of bitcoin and predicts that it could reach $150,000 next year. The recent drone attack on Israel highlights the fragility of the bitcoin market.
