Dates: blocks left × the chain's measured average block time. Heights are read from each chain every few minutes. A chain without a reading shows no numbers.
Questions
Why do three chains halve at the same block?
Bitcoin Cash split from Bitcoin in August 2017 and Bitcoin SV split from Bitcoin Cash in November 2018. All three kept the original rule: the block reward halves every 210,000 blocks. Each chain counts its own blocks, so the same block number is reached on a different day.
Which chain halves first?
The one with the highest block height. The table above shows the current heights; the estimated dates use each chain's own measured block time.
Is the reward the same on all three?
Yes. The schedule is identical: 3.125 coins per block before block 1,050,000 and 1.5625 after it.
How are the dates estimated?
Blocks left on that chain multiplied by its average block time, measured over a recent window of blocks. If a chain's block time has not been measured, no date is shown for it.
