Next Bitcoin As the halving event approaches, Bitfinex CTO and Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that it may be difficult to predict its impact on the price due to increased demand from spot Bitcoin ETFs.
During a recent online event hosted by Bitfinex, Ardoino was asked about the potential effects of the upcoming Bitcoin halving on the BTC price. Ardoino emphasized that the current demand for Bitcoin significantly outstrips the amount of coins produced by mining.
“Even today, Bitcoin demand far outstrips existing mining,” Ardoino said and added:
“We see these large institutions and ETFs… Bitcoin demand far exceeds current mining production. Of course, mining production will decrease by half, but this is a perception problem. “The vast majority of Bitcoins have already been produced.”
The next halving event, scheduled for April, is expected to reduce miner rewards from 6.25 BTC per block to 3,125.
BTC price managed to rise above $73,000 this week, but with a sudden decline, it even reached around $65,000 today.
