BTC: Genesis and Unspendable Coinbase Outputs — Count

Bitcoin Genesis and Unspendable Coinbase Outputs — Count was 426 outputs on 7 Nov 2026 (latest daily value).

How many Bitcoin miner reward outputs can never be spent (the genesis block's reward and outputs to provably unspendable scripts), per hour or day.

Why use it. These outputs were created but will never circulate; this counts them. How to read it. Usually zero; it moves only in the rare periods with such outputs, which add nothing to the spendable supply. The two early outputs overwritten by duplicate transactions (BIP30) have their own chart.

Calculation. Exact definition: The number of coinbase outputs in each UTC hour or day that are excluded from the spendable stock: the genesis output and provably unspendable scripts. Each point sums exact output observations across the whole UTC period. These outputs are recorded in the ledger but excluded from the spendable stock, so they add nothing to it. The two canonical BIP30 overwritten outputs are a separate removal with their own chart. This does not measure miner reserves, ownership or entities. Count the genesis output and coinbase outputs with provably unspendable scripts observed across the entire UTC period in our exact coinbase-output ledger, which excludes them from the spendable stock. In that ledger, coinbase outputs include subsidy and actual claimed fees. Built from locally validated Bitcoin Core mainnet data.
