Layer 2 scaling solutions (L2s) are networks built on top of a main blockchain, such as Ethereum, often with the purpose of improving scalability to make transactions faster and cheaper. L2s rely on…

What is Bitcoin halving? A “block” is a file containing 1 megabyte (MB) of Bitcoin (BTC) transaction records on the Bitcoin blockchain. “Miners” compete to add the next block by solving a complex mathematical problem using specialized hardware, producing a random 64-character output known as a “hash,” finishing the process and locking the block so it can’t be changed. By completing these blocks, miners receive Bitcoin. So, how does the Bitcoin halving cycle work? Miners…
