A leading crypto analytics firm says that Bitcoin (BTC) struggled through a long-lasting bear market during the last cycle after hitting its mid-halving correction point in July 2018.
In a new analysis, crypto intelligence firm Santiment notes BTC is now fast approaching another mid-halving correction on April 11, a part of the leading digital asset’s life cycle that usually occurs every four years.
“Halving is one the most important economic events in Bitcoin life cycles which Approximately happens every four years. based on the history of the price chart we can clearly see that halvings cut the supply of Bitcoin in half and that caused a pump in the price.”

For example, there are currently about 900,000 daily active Bitcoin addresses, compared to about 600,000 in July 2018.
