Every 4 years, Bitcoin experiences an event where block rewards from mining are cut in half. This deflationary aspect of Bitcoin is part of the reason why it's become so valuable. We discuss how this fact impacts the price and it's cyclical nature. Just like any other industry, cryptocurrencies experience a hefty amount of fraud.
