How many blocks are in one Bitcoin?

Andrea Andrea Sun Jul 21 2024 | 7 answers 1178
I'm curious to understand the fundamental structure of Bitcoin. Could you please explain in simple terms how the blockchain technology works and clarify the common misconception of equating Bitcoin to blocks? I've heard people often ask, "How many blocks are in one Bitcoin?" But I suspect this isn't an accurate representation of the system. Could you elaborate on the relationship between Bitcoin and blocks in the blockchain, and perhaps give a ballpark estimate of how many blocks might be created in a given timeframe to further my understanding? How many blocks are in one Bitcoin?
