#创作者冲榜 The 20 millionth BTC officially mined, with 1 million remaining mined in space!

You still think Bitcoin is just a string of numbers on a screen? Still think mining is just the roar of machines in mining farms?

March 2026 brings two nuclear-level messages to the crypto circle that shatter everyone's understanding:

The 20 millionth Bitcoin has been officially mined, with only 1 million remaining to be mined, taking another 114 years to complete;

NVIDIA's mega-investment space mining plan has been officially announced. In 2026, the Starcloud-2 satellite will carry mining machines into space, and humanity's first space BTC mining is about to become reality!

This is not just industry news, but a milestone of cryptocurrency moving from Earth to the stars. When Bitcoin's scarcity reaches its extreme, when the energy bottleneck of ground mining is completely broken, the next century of the crypto circle is already far beyond your current understanding!

I. Epic Milestone! Bitcoin 95.2% Mined, Only 1 Million Remaining, the Ultimate Treasure of the Century!

In 2026, Bitcoin's block height is fixed at 940,000, a number that becomes an eternal mark in crypto history—the 20 millionth Bitcoin has been successfully mined, accounting for 95.2% of the total supply of 21 million, leaving only the final 1 million "digital gold" for global miners to compete for over the next 114 years.

To date, Bitcoin's total market cap has reached $1.36 trillion, but behind this number lies the iron law set by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2009, executed with perfect precision for 17 years without deviation:

✅ Four halvings landed with precision, mechanical rules creating absolute scarcity.

When the Bitcoin network first launched, miners could receive 50 BTC rewards for every block produced. The "halving rewards every 210,000 blocks (approximately 4 years)" rule set by Satoshi Nakamoto became the most immovable base logic in the crypto world:

November 2012, first halving: 50 → 25
July 2016, second halving: 25 → 12.5
May 2020, third halving: 12.5 → 6.25
April 20, 2024, block height 840,000, fourth halving: 6.25 → 3.125

According to this rule, 2028 will see the fifth halving, rewards dropping to 1.5625, the sixth halving in 2032 to 0.78125, decreasing infinitely thereafter until 2140 when the last Bitcoin is mined and block rewards completely zero out.

This means the remaining 1 million BTC will be slowly mined over a century, with each birth becoming a global focus.

✅ Actual circulating supply only 15.8-17.5 million, scarcity far exceeds gold

Mining 20 million doesn't mean 20 million are in circulation! According to 2026 latest calculations from top on-chain analysis institutions globally like Chainalysis and River Financial, 3-4 million Bitcoin have been permanently lost, with a loss rate of 15%-20%, reasons including early miners forgetting private keys, physical hard drive damage, permanent loss of wallet passwords, etc. These coins forever lie on the blockchain, yet no one can ever move them again.

Most striking among these is the 1 million BTC left by Satoshi Nakamoto—from 2009-2010, after Satoshi Nakamoto mined this portion of Bitcoin, the wallet has never had any transfer records, becoming #Gate13周年全球庆典
