Getty (3), Dreamstime (1) Cryptocurrency halving dates Bitcoin’s supply is hard capped at 21 million, meaning there will never be more than 21 million Bitcoins in circulation. Both the fixed supply and regularly occurring halvings were hard-coded into Bitcoin’s programming by its pseudonymous creator (or creators), Satoshi Nakamoto. This was in part to ensure Bitcoin would remain a deflationary currency, one that increases in value over time as its supply decreases.

Bitcoin has a maximum supply of 21 million BTC, of which 19.7 million have already been mined. When all 21 million BTC are mined, Bitcoin miners will no longer be receiving any block rewards but will only receive the transaction fees paid by users. By the time of the next Bitcoin halving in 2028, 98% of the total Bitcoin supply will have been mined. How does Bitcoin halving work? As each halving event reduces the block reward by half, the supply of new bitcoins entering circulation will continue to decrease over time. This built-in mechanism is designed to ultimately lead to higher prices as demand grows while supply diminishes.
