What is Bitcoin Halving?

Bitcoin halving is a programmed event that occurs approximately every 4 years (210,000 blocks) where the block reward given to miners is cut in half.

This mechanism controls Bitcoin's inflation rate and ensures that only 21 million Bitcoin will ever exist, making it a deflationary digital asset.
