Bitcoin Dashboard

Live price, mempool fees, hashrate, halving countdown and mining pools — with a one-line explanation per metric. Data via mempool.space.

What is sat/vB?

Satoshi per virtual byte — the price you pay miners to include your transaction in the next block. High sat/vB = fast. With a quiet mempool you sit at 1–5; under congestion it can spike above 100.

Why halving?

Every 210,000 blocks (~4 years) the new Bitcoin issuance per block is cut in half. This is hard-coded in the protocol and shapes the supply curve up to a maximum of 21 million BTC.

Difficulty adjustment

Every 2,016 blocks the network retargets mining difficulty so a new block appears on average every 10 minutes — regardless of how much hashrate comes online or goes offline.

Reading mempool pressure

The mempool is the virtual buffer of unconfirmed transactions. The bigger it gets (MvB), the longer the queue and the higher the fees. Below 10 MvB is quiet.

Hashrate in EH/s

Exahash per second: a quintillion (10¹⁸) hashes. The higher it is, the more expensive it is to attack the network. Since 2024 it has been structurally above 500 EH/s.

Mining pools

Miners pool their hashrate to find blocks more often. Foundry USA, AntPool and ViaBTC dominate; a healthy distribution matters for network resilience.

Frequently asked questions

When is the next halving?
See the dashboard above — the countdown is computed from the current block height assuming the standard 10-minute block interval.
What is a good sat/vB right now?
Check the “Recommended fees” tile. Fast = next 1–2 blocks (~20 min); Economy may take up to a day.
How reliable is mempool.space?
mempool.space is open-source, runs its own Bitcoin full nodes and is the de-facto explorer in the Bitcoin community. The API is free and requires no authentication.
