The Bitcoin halving (BTC halving) is a rule written into Bitcoin's code: every 210,000 blocks, the subsidy paid to miners for each new block is cut in half. It began at 50 BTC in 2009 and is 3.125 BTC today. After the next halving it will be 1.5625 BTC. Halving Bitcoin's issuance this way is what enforces the hard cap of 21 million coins — 95.6% of which has already been mined.
Bitcoin halving happens by block height, not by calendar. Blocks target 10 minutes but actually arrive faster or slower depending on hashrate, so the next Bitcoin halving date is always a projection. CoinWarz recomputes it from the live block height and the average block time over the last 20,160 blocks: currently 10 min 01 sec, which puts the next halving on .
The halving countdown ticks every second and re-syncs to the blockchain every minute. Switch it between Time, Blocks, and Totals; flip dates to your local time; add the halving to your calendar; or open Clock mode for a full-screen Bitcoin halving clock you can leave on a display.
Halving cuts mining revenue per block in half overnight unless BTC price rises to compensate. Model the impact with the Bitcoin mining calculator, the 1-year Bitcoin mining forecast, and the Profit-per-Watt Bitcoin miner rankings, and watch the difficulty chart for how the network reacts after each cut.
The next Bitcoin halving date is April 13, 2028, about 576 days from now (projected). Bitcoin's next halving date lands at block 1,050,000, when the block subsidy drops from 3.125 BTC to 1.5625 BTC. CoinWarz recalculates the next BTC halving date from live block height and average block time, so it moves slightly as blocks arrive faster or slower.
The next Bitcoin halving is projected for April 13, 2028 at 06:41 PM UTC. Bitcoin halves the block subsidy every 210,000 blocks, roughly every four years. The next halving of Bitcoin is halving number 5 at block 1,050,000; use the live countdown on this page to see the exact days, hours, minutes, and seconds remaining.
The next BTC halving date is April 13, 2028 — about 576 days away. BTC's next halving cuts the reward from 3.125 to 1.5625 BTC per block at height 1,050,000. The BTC halving countdown above updates every second and re-syncs to the live block height every minute.
The Bitcoin halving countdown shows 576 days to April 13, 2028 — 82,730 blocks from the current height 967,270 to block 1,050,000. The CoinWarz halving countdown clock estimates remaining time from the recent average block interval (10 min 01 sec) rather than a fixed 10-minute clock, and you can switch it between time, blocks, and totals.
Bitcoin halving dates so far: November 28, 2012 (block 210,000, reward 50 → 25 BTC); July 9, 2016 (block 420,000, 25 → 12.5 BTC); May 11, 2020 (block 630,000, 12.5 → 6.25 BTC); and April 20, 2024 (block 840,000, 6.25 → 3.125 BTC). The next Bitcoin halving date is projected for April 13, 2028 at block 1,050,000.
BTC halving dates: 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024. The next BTC halving date is projected for April 13, 2028, followed by roughly 2032, 2036, and so on until the final halving near the year 2140. Each BTC halving is 210,000 blocks after the last; the exact calendar date drifts with network hashrate.
The Bitcoin halving (sometimes written "halving Bitcoin" or "BTC halving") is a rule in Bitcoin's code that cuts the block subsidy paid to miners by 50% every 210,000 blocks. Halving slows new BTC issuance and enforces the 21 million supply cap. About 95.6% of all BTC has already been mined; the current subsidy is 3.125 BTC and it becomes 1.5625 BTC after the next halving.
The Bitcoin halving 2028 date is projected for April 13, 2028 at block 1,050,000. Bitcoin halving 2028 is halving number 5 and reduces the block reward to 1.5625 BTC. The date is a projection: faster blocks pull it earlier, slower blocks push it later — drag the block-time slider on this page to see how much.
The Bitcoin halving clock is a live countdown that ticks down to the next halving in days, hours, minutes, and seconds. CoinWarz's halving clock also shows blocks remaining, cycle progress, and a full-screen clock mode you can leave on a display. Use the Local/UTC switch to see the halving time in your own time zone.
The Bitcoin halving chart plots the block reward for every halving epoch (50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.5625 BTC and onward) together with the cumulative BTC supply. Hover or tap an epoch to see its block range, date, BTC issued, and share of the 21 million cap.
CoinWarz takes the live block height (967,270), blocks remaining (82,730), and the average interval over the last 20,160 blocks (10 min 01 sec). Projected date = now + (blocks remaining × average block time). A 10-second change in average block time shifts the projected date by roughly a week and a half.
The projected halving time is April 13, 2028 at 06:41 PM UTC. Switch the page to Local time and every date on it converts to your device's time zone. You can also add the halving to your calendar from the countdown.
29 Bitcoin halvings remain after halving 5. Bitcoin halves 33 times in total; the block subsidy rounds to zero near block 6,930,000 around the year 2140, after which miners earn transaction fees only.
Halving cuts block revenue in half — from 3.125 to 1.5625 BTC per block — unless BTC price rises to compensate. Miners with high electricity costs or inefficient hardware are squeezed first. Use the CoinWarz Bitcoin mining calculator and Profit-per-Watt miner rankings to model profit per day before and after the subsidy drop.
