Bitcoin halving cuts block rewards from 6.25 to 3.125 BTC, slashing supply growth by 50%. Miners face higher costs per coin; only those with low‑energy or ASIC efficiency can stay profitable. The scarcity boost often triggers price rallies, but volatility spikes as markets adjust. Ultimately, halving tightens supply, fuels bullish sentiment, and rewards efficient mining.

Staking is more than passive income. Locking your coins helps secure the network and validate blocks, earning you rewards. In PoS chains, validators are incentivized to act honestly, so your stake serves as a security deposit. Yields range 5–10% APY and can be compounded via derivatives. Beware lock‑up periods, slashing risk, and network health. Every coin you stake strengthens decentralization and your wallet.
