Bitcoin in the News : 2016-07 Halving

This is the third consecutive 'Bitcoin in the News' post on this blog, since the previous posts -- 2016-06 Price and 2016-06 More++ -- were followed by a break in blogging. Like the price action in the previous month, the month of July was dominated by a single story: 'the Halving'. I counted four types of stories that appeared during the month.

The nailbiting (fearmongering?):-

• 2016-07-06: As Bitcoin Halving Approaches, 51% Attack Question Resurfaces (coindesk.com)
• 2016-07-08: Bitcoin 'miners' face fight for survival as new supply halves (reuters.com)

The explanations:-

• 2016-07-09: The Halving: Then & Now - a Bitcoin Magazine Infographic (nasdaq.com)

The big day:-

• 2016-07-10: Bitcoin Drifts Lower After Technical Milestone (wsj.com)
• 2016-07-11: Bitcoin rewards halve for virtual cash money miners (bbc.com)

The aftermath:-

As for other July stories, it looks like I've inadvertently set up a fourth consecutive news post.
