=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=939661
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1772855730
This is average time to mine a block
(1772855730-1231006505)/939661
bts=576.6426917338362091901130
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 13:51:47 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 939939
predicted to happen at this time:
Mon Mar 9 00:27:16 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 466.
The next fortnight happens in block
941472 and probably around this time:
Thu Mar 19 06:00:29 UTC 2026
