What is the CAT Halving?
The CAT halving is a pre-programmed event that cuts the block reward miners receive by 50%. It occurs every 210,000 blocks — roughly every 4 years.
This mechanism controls CAT's inflation rate. By reducing the rate at which new coins are created, it ensures a predictable, declining supply schedule.
For miners, the halving means earning 50%% fewer coins for the same computational work. Less efficient hardware may become unprofitable. However, halvings have historically preceded significant price appreciation.
FAQ
About the CAT halving
What is the CAT halving?
The CAT halving is a pre-programmed event that reduces the block reward miners receive by 50%. It occurs every 210,000 blocks. This mechanism controls CAT's inflation rate and limits the total supply.
When is the next CAT halving?
The next CAT halving is estimated around March 2030 at block height 630,000. The block reward will drop from 12.5000 to 6.2500 CAT.
How does the halving affect mining profitability?
The halving cuts miners' block reward income in half while mining costs remain the same. Less efficient hardware may become unprofitable. However, halvings have historically preceded price increases that can offset the reduced rewards.
