As a keen observer of the cryptocurrency market, I'm curious to know: When did the most recent Bitcoin halving occur? This event, which reduces the reward for mining Bitcoin transactions by half, is a significant milestone in the cryptocurrency's lifecycle. Understanding its timeline can provide valuable insights into the Bitcoin ecosystem's dynamics and potential future trends. Can you elaborate on the specific date and any notable market reactions that followed the halving?
