According to real-time data from the CloverPool Bitcoin block explorer, the Bitcoin network has successfully mined over 20 million BTC, accounting for more than 95% of its total supply cap of 21 million. This means that less than 1 million Bitcoins remain to be gradually released through mining, a process that will take over a century. As the quadrennial halving mechanism continues to advance, the new supply of Bitcoin is steadily approaching zero, marking its official transition from a high-inflation asset to an extremely scarce digital store of value. Market analysts point out that this milestone event highlights the high predictability and long-term stability of the Bitcoin protocol in terms of supply mechanism, further strengthening its position as "digital gold." The scarcity logic of Bitcoin is becoming an important reference for global macro investors to re-evaluate asset allocation.
