Twitter bot to keep track of Bitcoins halvening

December 22, 2019 Reward changed to "Subsidy"

I immediately shared the bot on reddit upon launch. A bitcoin core contributor suggested a change to the wording of the tweet. Rather than bitcoin miners receiving a reward, they recieve a subsidy. The subsidy is the amount of newly minted bitcoin that the miner who discovered the next valid block will get.

As soon as the bot published its first tweet, I shared the content on as many relevant Reddit communities as I could find, which yielded some follows from prominent Bitcoin influencers such as Nick Szabo, Connor Fromknecht from lightning labs, Valantine Wallace from square crypto, and many others.

I made this twitter bot in order to educate people about Bitcoins controlled supply and subsidy schedule.
