=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=953185
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1781149321
This is average time to mine a block
(1781149321-1231006505)/953185
bts=577.1620816923454603823388
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sat Mar 18 21:21:07 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 953359
predicted to happen at this time:
Fri Jun 12 07:35:47 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 472.
The next fortnight happens in block
953568 and probably around this time:
Sat Jun 13 17:06:14 UTC 2026
