Bitcoin Cash before the fourth Bitcoin halving: price surge and market outlook

Bitcoin Cash halving precedes the fourth Bitcoin halving event, reducing block rewards and boosting BCH value. Despite historical highs in 2017, BCH market capitalization grows. Bitcoin's surge post-ETF approval signals an upward trend, with the upcoming halving event scheduled for April 20th.

Bitcoin Cash Halving Precedes Fourth Bitcoin Halving Event

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) recently went through a halving event a few weeks prior to the scheduled fourth Bitcoin halving. Halving is a process of reducing block rewards to control the cryptocurrency’s supply.

Bitcoin Cash Halving Event

Bitcoin Cash experienced its halving event on a Thursday, resulting in a reduction of block rewards to 3.125 BCH. This was the second halving event for this forked network, with the previous one taking place in early April 2020, reducing block rewards to 6.25 BCH.

BCH Price Surge Post-Halving

Following the halving, the value of Bitcoin Cash saw a significant surge, reaching levels not seen since 2021. The cryptocurrency’s price hit around $700 in the early hours of Friday, eventually stabilizing around $660. This growth represents a 10% gain over the past seven days.

Bitcoin Cash Compared to Historical Data

Although the BCH price falls far from the historical highs of 2017, when it reached over $9,500, market development remains visible. Currently, the market capitalization of Bitcoin Cash stands at around $13 billion, a considerable distance compared to the approximately $1.3 trillion established by Bitcoin.

Current Market Situation

Bitcoin, which serves as the foundation for BCH, maintains a high level. Since the approval of bitcoin ETFs in the market since January, the price of bitcoin has been steadily rising, setting new historical records. Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading around $67,000.

Upcoming Bitcoin Halving

The next, fourth halving of bitcoin is expected around April 20th, at block 840,000. This event cycle occurs every 210,000 blocks, serving as a significant reference point for the entire cryptocurrency market.
