# 4. How long does it take to mine a Block?

The default block mining time is 10 minutes. However, just like in real mining, this time can decrease or increase depending on the pool's power. After a certain period, it will reset to 10 minutes again.

For example, if today DOGE is mined in 10 minutes, but tomorrow many players decide to mine only DOGE and significantly increase its pool power, the mining time for DOGE may also increase.
