Скачать или смотреть Bitcoin's 2nd Block Subsidy ($NAT)

Starting from block 885588 (Feb 27th, 2025), every Bitcoin block mined, now triggers an automatic, non-arbitrary amount of $NAT token.

$NAT is token launched on TAP Protocol, and it is now, and will be forever, automatically deposited into miner’s wallets alongside their standard BTC block reward.

The amount of $NAT released per block is determined by Bitcoin's hash power at the time of the block confirmation, making the regulation of $NAT production per block fully Bitcoin controlled.

This is possible by leveraging the ‘Digital Matter’ asset framework, which TAP Protocol supports (the first and only protocol to support it today!)

This powerful miner revenue mechanism has already been acknowledged and supported by Antpool, one of the world’s largest mining pools.

On Monday, July 21st, Antpool became the first known Bitcoin mining pool to not only receive but also sell some of their accumulated $NAT — a ‘Digital Matter’ asset issued via TAP Protocol.

This marks what is believed to be the first instance of Bitcoin miners directly generating revenue from a non-BTC asset, highlighting TAP’s potential as a powerful tool for enhancing Bitcoin’s long-term security budget.

The event represents a pivotal moment in the ongoing race to develop sustainable, miner-aligned incentives atop Bitcoin Layer 1.
