The halving of bitcoin is indeed a dirty little trick hiding in the source code.
Try if you buy Bitcoin in 2018 or 2022, surely you are now and enjoy the fact of the halving or you will scream I won, I did, Bitcoin ideas and tricks are genius and sure.
Because you didn't buy it at that time, it looks like you are disappointed and blaming yourself, actually it's not a dirty halving, your mind is dirty, because you judge in a silly way.
The bitcoin white paper misleads:
I don't find any error in it, proof:
Bitcoin Whitepaper: Explained"The steady addition of a constant of amount of new coins..."
Where is the proof of addition, what is that nonsense you have.
Point being:
White paper does not mention halving !
It's up to you to judge, in fact: big companies, countries and big investors are already targeting Bitcoin for their future.
