=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=967389
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1789636243
This is average time to mine a block
(1789636243-1231006505)/967389
bts=577.4607324863808805135467
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Wed Mar 22 12:27:31 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 967769
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Sep 19 22:07:58 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 479.
The next fortnight happens in block
967680 and probably around this time:
Sat Sep 19 07:51:24 UTC 2026
