What Date Is the Next Bitcoin Halving?

The fourth cycle was completed in April 2024, and the next one will occur after another 210,000 blocks are mined. The specific date is determined by reaching the target block height and the realized block interval, in other words, the actual pace of block production rather than the calendar. Therefore, the exact date cannot be stated in advance, but it is expected around 2028.
