The Bitcoin (BTC) halving refers to when the rewards paid to miners are halved. The 2024 Bitcoin halving will reduce block rewards from 6.25 BTC to 3.125 BTC.


The halving is currently slated to occur around 4:00 am UTC on April 20, according to the Cointelegraph countdown timer.

Record levels of interest in the halving event may not come as a surprise following Bitcoin’s banner performance over the last few months.


Bitcoin began the year at a price of $42,200 and soared 74% to reach a new all-time high of $73,600 on March 13, according to CoinMarketCap data.


Bitcoin’s price action has since cooled off and has traded consistently lower since mid-May. At the time of publication, Bitcoin is changing hands for $61,078 — down 17% from its all-time high.


Despite souring sentiment from market participants, several market commentators have pointed to the historical patterns of Bitcoin price action to suggest that Bitcoin could rally significantly in the months following the halving.
