The recent FB price drop has been significant, and the halving is also coming soon.
FB will undergo its halving at block number 2,100,000. As of noon on August 31, the current block height is 2,077,545—22,455 blocks remain until the halving. It is expected to be triggered between September 8 and September 9 (Beijing time), but ultimately it will depend on the block height reaching 2,100,000.
After the halving, the Fractal chain block reward will decrease from 25 FB to 6.25 FB, with an additional 6.25 FB allocated from the Bitcoin mainnet. In other words, Fractal chain production drops by 75%, but the total FB supply increase is only halved—don’t mix these two up.
UniSat’s buyback plan is in two parts: the first is the 500,000 FB purchased in February this year—this has already been completed and is used for index staking. The second part starts after the halving: starting then, it invests $200,000 per month for 5 consecutive months, for a total of $1,000,000. The purchased FB will be held as long-term reserves and locked for at least 5 years.
Currently, the second tranche has not begun purchasing. The specific dates, prices, and lockup addresses have not been announced. What is fixed each month is the investment amount; the actual quantity purchased depends on market price.
Whether this plan can truly be a positive catalyst depends on three things: whether it follows the schedule to buy, the actual quantity purchased, and whether the lockup address is publicly disclosed. Before the funds truly enter the market, the announcement can only be viewed as an expectation—not as a confirmed positive catalyst.
