Did you know that the Bitcoin protocol is designed to reward miners for validating transactions and adding them to the blockchain? The reward is halved every 210,000 blocks, which is roughly every four years. This mechanism is designed to control inflation and ensure the long-term sustainability of the network.

That's a great point! The halving mechanism is a key factor in maintaining the integrity and value of Bitcoin. It helps to prevent inflation and ensures that miners are incentivized to continue validating transactions and securing the network.
