Bitcoin Halving and Spot ETFs Expected to Reduce Supply and Double Demand
According to Coincu, the upcoming Bitcoin halving and the potential launch of spot ETFs are expected to have a significant impact on the Bitcoin market. Michael Saylor, in an interview on Fox Business, mentioned the impact of the halving on the Bitcoin supply and the potential doubling of demand once the spot ETFs are launched. The halving event reduces the supply, while the spot ETFs are expected to attract more investors and increase demand for Bitcoin.
The Bitcoin halving is a significant event that occurs approximately every four years, where the block reward provided to miners is reduced by half. This event ensures a controlled monetary inflation rate, distinguishing cryptocurrencies from traditional fiat currencies with infinite supply. The next halving is expected to occur on April 24, 2024, and the current block height is less than 6 months away from it. Once all 32 halving events have taken place, the maximum supply of Bitcoin will be reached, and no more Bitcoin will be created.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs, also known as Bitcoin Physical ETFs, are investment funds that operate similarly to traditional ETFs. These funds allow investors to access Bitcoin without owning it directly. Instead, the fund management company purchases Bitcoin and issues shares in the ETF, representing ownership of the underlying Bitcoin. This indirect investment enables investors to benefit from the value of Bitcoin while mitigating the risks associated with the crypto market.

Tether Provides $610M Debt Financing to Bitcoin Miner Northern Data; Increases Bet on Bitcoin Mining
Tether, the issuer of the widely-used stablecoin USDT, is increasing its involvement in Bitcoin mining through a significant debt facility issued to Northern Data AG. The German-based BTC mining company has secured a 575 million euro ($610 million) debt financing facility from Tether.
According to the announcement made on November 2, the debt capital aims to fuel further investments across Northern Data Group's three business lines—Taiga Cloud, Ardent Data Centers, and Peak Mining. The primary aim of these investments will be to acquire additional hardware and increase the scale of Bitcoin mining operations with liquid-cooling mining technology.
The debt facility is unsecured, with standard market conditions applied, and has a term that extends up to January 1, 2030.
Previously, in September 2023, Tether had acquired a stake in Northern Data and invested an undisclosed amount in the company, committing support to AI initiatives. Tether clarified that the investment was made independently of its reserves and would not affect customer funds.
Moreover, the stablecoin company has been actively participating in Bitcoin mining operations throughout 2023—both by establishing its own mining operations and introducing proprietary mining software.
As reported in the Q2 attestation from accounting firm BDO, Tether increased its excess reserves by $850 million, bringing the total of excess reserves to $3.3 billion. Despite efforts to reduce stablecoin loans to zero last year, the company's loans reportedly surged in September 2023.
