  New bitcoins are created approximately every 10 minutes in each block. This process is known as mining. Miners compete to solve complex mathematical problems, and the first miner to solve the problem successfully is rewarded with a certain number of newly created bitcoins. The current reward is 6.25 bitcoins per block. This reward is halved approximately every four years in an event called the 'halving', which helps to control the supply of bitcoins and maintain scarcity.

  New bitcoins are created in each block approximately every 10 minutes. This process is called mining, and it involves solving complex mathematical problems using specialized hardware. Miners compete with each other to find the solution, and the winner is rewarded with newly minted bitcoins. The number of bitcoins created per block is currently 6.25, but it will decrease over time as part of the Bitcoin protocol. This ensures a controlled and predictable supply of bitcoins.
