    CAmount GetBlockSubsidy(int nHeight, const Consensus::Params&       consensusParams)
    {
    int halvings = nHeight / consensusParams.nSubsidyHalvingInterval;
    // Force block reward to zero when right shift is undefined.
    if (halvings >= 64)
        return 0;

    CAmount nSubsidy = 50 * COIN;
    // Subsidy is cut in half every 210,000 blocks which will occur approximately every 4 years.
    nSubsidy >>= halvings;
    return nSubsidy;
    }


I heard somewhere that the halving is just one line of code. 

And I started thinking about everything that the halving implies and does and sets in motion... and it's one line of code. Wow.

I'm four or five years into Bitcoin and a year full-time into Bitcoin. And, every three weeks or so, I find some idea or have a realization about Bitcoin that blows my mind and leaves me in awe.
