Just like "A single bitcoin miner recently won a block reward of 6.25₿" in 2022. The situation is similar,Solo miner hits "independent block" and gets 3.19 BTC block reward yesterday!! it feels like winning the lottery! ! Based on the miner's computing power, the probability of mining an independent block is "1 in 1.2 million (0.000083%)", or "on average at least every 3,500 years" to encounter such a lucky opportunity. In the early morning of July 25, a solo miner successfully won the right to add the 853,742th block to the Bitcoin blockchain, processed a block containing 4,365 transactions, and finally won a block reward of 3.19 bitcoins, worth about $210,000.Con Kolivas, a software engineer at ckpool, a separate...
Antiques in prosperous times, gold in troubled times. In the inherent concept of the world, gold is synonymous with absolute value.

War always has collateral damages, and crypto has played an important role in allowing non-combatants – on both sides – to continue having access to a financial lifeline.
These charts show the monetary (supply) inflation of Bitcoin. They bear no relation to price inflation, which is an entirely distinct phenomenon. When Austrian economists say "inflation," they're typically referring to monetary inflation, whereas Keynesian economists are typically referring to price inflation. Also, please note that the top axis ("Year") on these charts is approximate, based on the scheduled block generation rate of one block per 10 minutes. The actual block generation rate has averaged a bit faster than this, due to the perpetually increasing hash rate, so we're already a little bit further progressed than the labels along the top axis would suggest. This doesn't mean there will be any more than 21M bitcoins; it only means that we'll reach the end...
