Bitcoin Fundamentals - Bitcoin Block RewardThe Bitcoin Block Reward is the batch of new Bitcoins generated by the miners after solving each block.
The Block Reward is set as a basic rule and cannot be changed without agreement between the entire Bitcoin network. It started at 50 BTC during the first period. Afterwards the Block Reward gets adjusted to half of it value (Halving Event) on each cycle of 210000 blocks mined.
This is the only way that new bitcoins are created. It creates an incentive for miners to secure the network.
Over time the Block Reward will decreases to a value that might not cover the mining costs. At that point, the use of the Bitcoin Network might have increased sufficiently as to generate enough transaction fees to cover the mining costs.
MOTIVATION
Even though this is a very simple indicator, I'm currently missing a data source to compute the Block Reward value within Tradingview. Therefore, I created this indicator and its associated library function to enable its visualization and (eventually) for coders to make use of the source function to power more elaborate scripts related to the Halving Events.
Hope that helps!

Potential buy zones (green) - when the network utilization is low & increasing
Potential sell zones (red) - when the network utilization is high & decreasing
Bitcoin Network Value to Transactions [aamonkey]Cryptoassets have been quite turbulent in the past few weeks.
At times like this, it is especially important to look at the fundamental foundations of cryptoassets.
This indicator is based on the Network Value to Transactions , or NVT .
Definition:
NVT = Network Value / Daily Transaction Volume
Because this indicator is pulling the Daily Transaction Volume for BTC it can only be used for BTC and the daily timeframe.
