What is a Bitcoin Cash block halving event?
Block halving events happen every 4 years or 210,000 blocks on Bitcoin Cash blockchain. The current block reward is 6.25 BCH, the next block reward will be 3.125 BCH. This lowers the rate at which Bitcoin Cash is generated. The halving is periodical and is programmed into Bitcoin Cash’s code.
Why was this done?
Conventional FIAT currencies allow governments or banks to print money and cause inflation. In Bitcoin Cash’s case, the total supply will be maxed out at 21,000,000 BCH. Printing extra money causes inflation, if there is no extra money printed, the value of the Bitcoin Cash should increase as the demand will rise (more people will start to use Bitcoin Cash) and supply will lower or stay flat (no more Bitcoin Cash is “printed”). This makes Bitcoin Cash similar to gold, which has limited supply and cannot be “printed” or artificially created.
