Bitcoin Just Mined Its 900,000th Block – What It Means for Miners and the Next Halving

The post Bitcoin Just Mined Its 900,000th Block – What It Means for Miners and the Next Halving appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

This is huge news! Bitcoin just crossed a new line in the sand. On Friday, the network hit block 900,000, a milestone that reflects the strength, consistency, and long-game design of the world’s largest cryptocurrency.

The block was mined by ViaBTC, one of the industry’s major mining pools, and included 1,562 transactions with relatively low fees (~3 sat/vB), generating 0.018 BTC in transaction rewards. Compared to the block before it – which packed fewer transactions but higher average fees – it was efficient, fast, and right on time.

But the real story isn’t about this single block. It’s about what it represents.

Block 900,000 puts us exactly 150,000 blocks away from the next Bitcoin halving, projected to hit at block 1,050,000 around March 2028. That’s when miner rewards will shrink again – from 3.125 BTC to 1.5625 BTC.
