=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=967351
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1789608295
This is average time to mine a block
(1789608295-1231006505)/967351
bts=577.4545253434117053564783
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Wed Mar 22 10:38:54 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 967769
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Sep 19 20:27:50 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 479.
The next fortnight happens in block
967680 and probably around this time:
Sat Sep 19 06:11:17 UTC 2026
