LONDON (Reuters) - Bitcoin's long-anticipated 'halving' is, depending on where you sit, a vital event that will burnish the cryptocurrency's value as an increasingly scarce commodity, or little more than a technical change talked up by speculators to inflate its price.
The halving comes after bitcoin hit an all-time high of $73,803.25 in March.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
