How much bitcoin is mined per day

New bitcoin per day on the protocol’s schedule · the reward per block halves every 210,000 blocks, about every four years

now: 466 BTC a day, measured over the last 30 days. Dashed line: US spot ETFs launch, Jan 2024. Steps: the halvings of May 2020 and Apr 2024; the next is expected in 2028.

About 450 BTC a day on schedule: a block roughly every ten minutes, 144 blocks a day, and 3.125 new BTC per block since the halving of 20 April 2024. The real number moves with the speed of blocks: over the last 30 days miners produced 13,978 BTC, 466 a day from about 149 blocks a day. In 2026 to date the average is 448.5 BTC a day.

The reward halves every 210,000 blocks. Transaction fees also go to miners, but they move existing coins and add no new supply, so they are not counted here.

How we compare ETF demand with new supply

  • ETF demand is the daily net flow of all US spot Bitcoin ETFs in dollars, divided by that day’s volume-weighted average bitcoin price.
  • New supply is the block reward times the blocks found between midnights UTC: 6.25 BTC per block before 20 April 2024, 3.125 BTC after.
  • ETFs trade five days a week and miners work seven, so the comparison is made by full weeks, Monday to Sunday.
  • Net creations show the coins the funds added or removed, not how much they hold.
  • Only US spot Bitcoin ETFs are counted. Futures ETFs, funds listed elsewhere and companies buying bitcoin for their treasuries are not.
  • This describes flows, not a forecast. ETF demand above new supply does not by itself set the price: existing holders buy and sell too.
