Despite the positive trend in the equity markets, Bitcoin is struggling to gain any significant upward traction this month. This lack of momentum in BTC price can largely be traced back to the effects of the recent halving event that happened in April.&nbsp;
The halving has led to a situation where miners are facing increased operational costs while the rewards for their efforts have decreased. As a result, many miners are forced to sell their BTC holdings to cover expenses, leading to a substantial increase in the supply of BTC in the market.&nbsp;
