How many bitcoin will there be in 2040?
By the protocol's schedule about 20,918,344 BTC exist by the end of 2040, that is 99.61 % of the 21,000,000 BTC there will ever be.
Basis: the protocol schedule at ten minutes a block. Coins lost for good are not deducted.
In 2040 the supply still grows by 0.1 % by the schedule, at 0.1953125 BTC per block.
Simulation, not a forecast and not investment advice.
wildcomb.appIn 2040 only 81,656 BTC are left to the cap. They come into being over more than a hundred further years, because the amount per block halves every four years.
The calculation knows no lost coins. What sits on forgotten keys is counted, because nobody can put a reliable number on it. The Bitcoin tab shows the schedule year by year.
