    What I still don't get is who/what does the calculation of the difficulty for the block solving and ultimately changes the difficulty if that's needed? In my mind this shall still be a "centralized entity"... Or did I get it wrong?

    What I have yet to see satisfactorily addressed is why the block reward is reduced by 50% every 210,000 blocks giving a lumpy four year cycle, instead of e.g. reduced by 16% every 52,500 blocks, giving a yearly cycle and thereby smoothing out the impact on the bitcoin system.

    I think halving is good. People are still learning about bitcoin and Defi and this halving event gives them more time to stumble on it. In a way, it's preventing a very select few from having more than they will ever need.
    About deflation, I think sometime in the future to prevent it, bitcoin could just phase out the current coins and introduce a new one with a different design. Just like how Germany changed its currency during inflation after WW1. They could set a time limit to replace the coin after which the old ones would no longer be of value.
    This way they could account for the coins in circulation but more importantly, the ones that were lost in inaccessible wallets. They could then continue the same mining cycle again.

    The one question that still till this day I can't seem to wrap my head around is: the halving protocol was introduced post infancy and not originally part of the BTC WhitePaper, then if there is no post interference or regulation as the original WP proposes then what is to say that another protocol of equal weight will not be introduced in the future?

    miners will also be in profit even after rewards got zero. Because at that time of period bitcoin value skyrocket and gas money would be sufficient for miners earning.

    The system is so potential susceptible to tragedy when the number of miners will fall due to zero rewards and poorer commissions,
    the network will thus become more vulnerable. This could make the network a target of 51% an attack that occurs when most of the computing power of the network is controlled by one area (China) or miner

      Keep in mind that miners get transactions fees and as Bitcoin becomes more a currency in use, the quantity of those fees (rewards to miners) will rise.

    So if the miners solve a problem they are given 6.5 Bitcoin for creating 1 bitcoin?
    Say there are 2500 miners trying to solve that problem to create 1 bitcoin, who gets the payment of 6.5 Btc?
    Who now owns that 1 newly created BTC?
