=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=967264
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1789550692
This is average time to mine a block
(1789550692-1231006505)/967264
bts=577.4469116529596336060955
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Wed Mar 22 08:25:39 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 967769
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Sep 19 18:25:02 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 479.
The next fortnight happens in block
967680 and probably around this time:
Sat Sep 19 04:08:29 UTC 2026
