Could you elaborate on the market capitalization of Bitcoin prior to its most recent halving event? Specifically, I'm interested in understanding how the value of the entire Bitcoin network, measured in terms of US dollars, fluctuated before the reward for mining new blocks was reduced by half. This information could provide valuable insights into the market's anticipation and reaction to such an important event in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Additionally, it may help investors and analysts gauge the potential impact of future halvings on Bitcoin's price and overall market capitalization.
