A Milestone for Bitcoin!
Join Digital Currency Group and Barclays on Thursday, July 7 to celebrate the upcoming bitcoin "halving" and record your predictions on the blockchain.
 
 The bitcoin protocol has built in specific points in time during which the block reward, or rate of new bitcoin creation, will be cut in half. This is the second time in bitcoin's eight year history that we'll see a halving, so what better time to get together?!
 
Note the actual halving is predicted to happen July 9. You can track the most up to date halving time here
