FAQ
When is the next Bitcoin Cash halving?
At block 1,050,000. The date depends on how fast blocks are found; this page shows an estimate as soon as the block time has been measured.
What happens to the block reward?
It drops from 3.125 BCH to 1.5625 BCH per block. Transaction fees are paid on top, but on Bitcoin Cash they are a very small part of what miners earn.
Why does Bitcoin Cash halve at a different time than Bitcoin?
Both chains halve at the same block heights, but they find blocks at slightly different speeds, so they reach block 1,050,000 on different days.
How many Bitcoin Cash will ever exist?
Just under 21 million (20,999,999.9769 BCH by the schedule). The block reward reaches zero at block 6,930,000.
How is the date estimated?
Blocks left multiplied by the average time per block, measured over the last 1,008 blocks (about seven days) or the last 4,320 blocks (about thirty days). Hashrate changes move the date; the halving block itself never changes.
