Halving Countdown
Where are we in the four-year issuance clock?
~75,894 blocks (~520 days) to the next halving at block 1,050,000 (est. 2028), when the block subsidy falls to 1.5625 BTC.
History
Block height estimated at 974,106 from the 2024 halving at ~146 blocks/day (the observed 2020→2024 pace).
Why we track it, how it's computed, and related reading
Why we track it · Supply halvings are the one scheduled event in Bitcoin — the closest thing the asset has to a calendar. The other side · The schedule is certain; its EFFECT is not. Three post-halving rallies are a sample of three.
The halving countdown tracks the days remaining until the next scheduled block-subsidy halving.
Project it forward →How it's computed
Halving boundaries are derived from the deterministic protocol schedule (the subsidy halves every 210,000 blocks, ~every four years) anchored on observed halving dates at ~146 blocks/day — the observed 2020→2024 pace, since real blocks have consistently run faster than the 144/day protocol target. The series shows the days remaining to the next boundary at each point in history — a sawtooth that resets to a full epoch at every halving. Dates are estimates, not exact block times.
Evidence basis · n = 4 halvings (2012, 2016, 2020, 2024)
