In this video, recorded on April 14, 2024, during a patron livestream Q&A session, Andreas explains how the halving works, debunks popular halving myths, and discusses how this halving is different from the rest.
Note from team aantonop: OOPS - we sped up the video in post-production a bit too much. But it's too late to fix and repost it now - we're glad some of you are learning how to slow down video speed - another bonus of aantonop videos? Seriously, we won't make that mistake again. Sorry everyone!
