=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=971416
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1791990058
This is average time to mine a block
(1791990058-1231006505)/971416
bts=577.4899481890887229686118
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Wed Mar 22 20:58:48 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 972279
predicted to happen at this time:
Tue Oct 20 09:27:11 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 481.
The next fortnight happens in block
971712 and probably around this time:
Fri Oct 16 14:29:55 UTC 2026
