Bitcoin has come into the limelight again. This, after it registered promising gains over the last week. Its price increased by more than 12%.
In the midst of the hype surrounding the next bull run, an intriguing piece of information about Bitcoin halving surfaced. The fourth BTC halving, which was initially scheduled to happen in 2024 will now happen sooner than the scheduled date.
According to NichHash’sdata, BTC’s next halving will take place in one year and 157 days, which means we can now expect the halving in December 2023. Popular crypto influencer, That Martini Guy, also mentioned this new development in his recent tweet.
