Dates up to 2024 are actual. Later dates assume ten minutes a block from the 2024 halving, so they are approximate; the next halving countdown uses the real block pace. The highlighted row is the current era.
Half of all bitcoin was issued in the first four years, and three quarters by 2016. Each era after that adds half as much as the one before, so the last 1% takes about a century. That falling issuance is what each halving changes; what the price does around it is shown on the cycle tracker.
See how the price moved around each of the four halvings so far, lined up from the halving date.
Compare every cycle with Pro Open the free 2024 chart33, counting the last one at block 6,930,000, which takes the reward from 1 satoshi to zero. Some sources say 32, because they stop at the last reward of 1 satoshi. The reward started at 50 BTC and halves every 210,000 blocks. Four halvings have happened so far (2012, 2016, 2020, 2024).
Around 2140, at block 6,930,000, assuming about ten minutes a block. After that, miners earn transaction fees only.
No. Because each reward is rounded down to whole satoshis, the most that can ever be issued is 20,999,999.9769 BTC, slightly under 21 million.
About 20,110,450 BTC at block 975,344, or 95.76% of the total that will ever exist.
