=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=939140
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1772543347
This is average time to mine a block
(1772543347-1231006505)/939140
bts=576.6299650425229012469906
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 10:09:04 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 939939
predicted to happen at this time:
Sun Mar 8 21:07:54 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 465.
The next fortnight happens in block
939456 and probably around this time:
Thu Mar 5 15:46:02 UTC 2026
