The supply schedule for Bitcoin steadily keeps ticking along. An automated event known as the halving reduces the creation of new coins by 50% following the completion of every 210,000 blocks. When the network first launched, the issuance began at 50 bitcoin:native per block. Fast forward to the present day, and that reward currently sits at 3.125. Looking ahead, the next halving is anticipated to occur in 2028, at which point the block reward will drop to 1.5625 BTC.
