Cryptocurrency market volatility increases as Bitcoin halving nears

Updated: Aug 31, 2024

The third Bitcoin halving is scheduled to take place on the 14th of May 2020. When the latter occurs, Bitcoin block rewards will be cut in half once again to a mere 6.25BTC per block. For some perspective, when Bitcoin was first created by Satoshi, that block reward used to be 50BTC.

This inherent feature makes Bitcoin more scarce as time passes, and by applying the basic concepts of supply and demand on this particular case, we’re seeing a diminishing supply and a rising demand as Bitcoin gains popularity amongst both retail and institutions.

As there have only been two halvings prior to this upcoming one, the data available to analyse the possible scenarios is rather slim. Nonetheless, by looking at these two data points we’ve seen a recurring increase in volatility (upside and downside) prior to the event and a significant rise to new all-time highs after the halving.

The steep decline seen in the cryptocurrency market yesterday is considered to be part of the pre-halving volatility. Nonetheless, it is always beneficial to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. This decline we’re seeing, on Bitcoin in particular, is after an extraordinary +250% rally in three-months only. Therefore, the steepness of the moves is simply a quality of Bitcoin’s price action.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
