Just checked the numbers and Bitcoin supply is now over 20 million out of the 21 million cap. What's wild is that the final million coins will take roughly another 114 years to mine due to halving events slowing down block rewards. It's basically saying we're entering the final stretch of Bitcoin's entire mining history.



Think about it—most of Bitcoin's supply will be mined within the next couple of decades, but that last 5% could stretch into the 22nd century. Makes you wonder about long-term scarcity dynamics and what happens to mining incentives when rewards get that small. The question of when will all bitcoins be mined isn't just a technical detail anymore, it's becoming a real economic timeline we need to think about.
