Bitcoin Cash (BCH) — how much BCH moves to market in the next 90 days?

BTC's pure-inflation playbook, ported. ~40,500 BCH minted per 90 days from the coinbase reward; no buy mechanism anywhere in the protocol. We walk the same eight rows we walk for every coin.

Setup

Bitcoin Cash forked from Bitcoin in August 2017 at BTC block 478,558, inheriting BTC's BIP-0034 emission curve verbatim: 21M hard cap, 10-minute block target, halvings every 210,000 blocks. Read directly from a Bitcoin Cash block explorer:

  • Current block: 952,655 · circulating ~20.04M BCH (95.4% mined)
  • Current emission: 3.125 BCH/block × 144 blocks/day = ~164,362 BCH/yr (~0.82%/yr)
  • Next halving: block 1,050,00097,345 blocks out (~22.5 months ≈ April 2028)
  • Cycle 5 emission: 1.5625 BCH/block → ~82,181 BCH/yr (~0.41%/yr)

The framework asks one structural question for any coin:

Net 90d % = (sell total − buy total) / circulating × 100

~40.5K BCH
Blockchain math, exact: 3.125 BCH/block × 144 blocks/day × 90 days = 40,500 BCH minted to PoW miners over the window. Most coinbase is sold to cover energy + hardware costs — economic literature consensus on PoW.
Next 90 days
~40.5K BCH
Same rate. Cycle-5 halving lands at block 1,050,000 (~22 months out), so the next 90d sit firmly inside cycle 4.
SOURCE #2Vesting unlocks
Last 90 days
0
BCH inherited BTC's history of no pre-mine, no ICO, no team allocation. Every BCH that exists was minted from a coinbase reward — there is no vesting schedule for any party.
Next 90 days
0
Same expectation.
SOURCE #3Foundation / dev fund
Last 90 days
0
In 2020 the Bitcoin Cash community split over a proposed Infrastructure Funding Plan (an 8% coinbase tax for development). The Bitcoin Cash chain (Bitcoin Cash Node) REJECTED the tax. The ABC side that wanted the tax forked off and became BCHA / eCash. So the BCH chain today has no protocol-level dev fund.

0
Same — no proposal to revive a coinbase tax is on the roadmap.
SOURCE #4Long-term locked or bankruptcy
Last 90 days
0
No active BCH bankruptcy estate. Mt. Gox BCH distributions (which were a real overhang in 2024) are largely complete. No long-term-locked bucket is scheduled to unlock in the window.

0
Same.

Net result

Plug the totals back into the formula:

Last 90 days = (40.5K − 0) / 20040K × 100 = +0.20% to market
Next 90 days = (40.5K − 0) / 20040K × 100 = +0.20% to market

BCH is the cleanest pure-inflation case in our coverage. ~164,362 BCH/yr (~0.82%) goes to miners; nothing comes off the market on the buy side. Net is a flat +0.20% to market over 90 days at the current pace, and the next 90 days project to the same.

The single mechanism that changes this picture is the cycle-5 halving at block 1,050,000 (~22.5 months out, ~April 2028). That cuts Sell #1 in half forever — but it lands outside the 90d window. For a 1-year horizon, the halving lands inside the window; for 4 years, two halvings land inside.

Data note. Block height + circulation are origin-first from a live block explorer. Emission curve + halving math from the BIP-0034 schedule inherited at the Aug 2017 fork. Cap confirmed at bitcoincash.org. No dev fund confirmed via the 2020 BCH ABC fork history (the ABC chain that took the 8% coinbase tax forked off and became BCHA / eCash; the surviving Bitcoin Cash chain rejected it). Monitor used only at end-of-pass cross-check.
