The global cryptocurrency community is gearing up for the approaching Bitcoin halving event, just a few days down the road.

Scheduled for April 20th, around 8 pm Turkish time (UTC+3), this event is a built-in feature of the Bitcoin network, occurring roughly every four years or every 210,000 blocks.

During the halving, the rewards for miners will be slashed from 6.25 BTC to 3,125 BTC per block. In simpler terms, miners will now receive half the number of bitcoins for each block they mine and add to the blockchain, though they'll still earn regular transaction fees. These halvings will persist until around 2140 when the last BTC is expected to be mined, after which miners will solely rely on transaction fees.

Historically, Bitcoin halvings have coincided with notable fluctuations in BTC prices. While not directly causal, these events often precede significant surges in the BTC market.

The debate over whether Bitcoin's halving is "priced in" arises with each occurrence of this event. Yet, there's an interesting observation this time around. Analysts David Duong and David Han from Coinbase note that this is the first halving cycle where Bitcoin hits an all-time high before the halving, suggesting that seasoned traders may have already factored in the halving effect.

However, analysts also suggest a prevailing sentiment that the halving could still drive prices upward, potentially sparking a rally.

This time, Bitcoin is edging closer to its all-time high compared to previous halving events. Yet, the approval of spot ETFs has significantly altered the supply-demand dynamics of BTC, a factor that could influence prices during and after the halving, as noted by Kaiko analysts.

"ETFs have been experiencing strong inflows overall, which might signal an immediate positive impact on prices as supply continues to dwindle," say the Kaiko analysts. "However, ETFs can also see swift outflows.
