Few days ago we had the second halving of bitcoin in history.
But what does this halving mean and why will it contribute for bitcoin to be worth 1 Million Dollars one day?
Let me explain in a very simple way, these are the amount of bitcoins generated every day since it was created:
Start (2009) : 7200.00000000 #start
Halving 1 (2012) : 3600.00000000 #Halving November 2012
Just with the first halving of 2012, 1 bitcoin went from about $5 to a max of about $1200 and STILL today it is around $660, that's about 130 times higher today and a top of about 250 times higher!
Now let's look into the future:
Halving 2 (2016) : 1800.00000000 #Halving July 2016
Halving 3 (2020) : 900.00000000
Halving 4 (2024) : 450.00000000
Halving 5 (2028) : 225.00000000
Halving 6 (2032) : 112.50000000
Halving 7 (2036) : 56.25000000
Halving 8 (2040) : 28.12500000
Halving 9 (2044) : 14.06250000
Halving 10 (2048) : 7.03125000

Halving 13 (2060) : 0.87890625
Halving 14 (2064) : 0.43945312

Halving 18 (2080) : 0.02746582
Halving 19 (2084) : 0.01373291

So basically:
$0.01
$0.10
$1
$10
$100
$1000 <- Only one halving took you here!
$10000
$100000
$1000000
$10000000
$100000000
The more halvings we have, the less sell pressure we have on the market, as less and less bitcoins are created over time.
One advice to all: if you want a good retirement in 30 years from now, forget those ridiculous bank accounts paying 1% a year, just buy $100 of bitcoins today and in 30 years you will be a f*cking Millionaire!
