=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=934559
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1769924609
This is average time to mine a block
(1769924609-1231006505)/934559
bts=576.6543656908063687724704
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 17:16:05 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 935539
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Feb 7 18:42:10 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 463.
The next fortnight happens in block
935424 and probably around this time:
Sat Feb 7 00:16:55 UTC 2026
