Bitcoin Incentivize

"Bitcoin rewards miners with newly issued bitcoins for maintaining the public ledger and confirming transactions, turning competition for rewards into a mechanism for securing the network. The protocol adjusts mining difficulty according to the total computational power so that blocks continue to be produced at roughly ten-minute intervals, and it halves the reward approximately every 210,000 blocks to limit the total supply. As new issuance declines and eventually ends, transaction fees are intended to become the primary compensation for miners, while users can sometimes pay higher fees to encourage faster confirmation."
