Here are my #Bitcoin predictions for 2024:

1️⃣ the supply of new Bitcoin mined per block will be cut in half from 6.25 to 3.125, at which point 6.25% (or 1.3125 million bitcoin) will be left to be mined

2️⃣ every 2016 blocks, there will be a difficulty adjustment

3️⃣ the total supply of Bitcoin will be 21 million

4️⃣ 1 bitcoin will continue to equal 1 bitcoin

I make these predictions with 100% certainty.

Those 2.31 million missing sats are due to the rounding down of the block subsidy to an integer number of sats. It doesn’t have anything to do with the unspendable 50 coins from the Genesis block.
