=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=934217
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1769689822
This is average time to mine a block
(1769689822-1231006505)/934217
bts=576.6141489459633618705698
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 05:32:18 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 934439
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Jan 31 00:03:50 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 463.
The next fortnight happens in block
935424 and probably around this time:
Fri Feb 6 13:49:55 UTC 2026
