=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=931507
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1767937589
This is average time to mine a block
(1767937589-1231006505)/931507
bts=576.4105987280839241316231
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Thu Mar 9 18:10:10 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 932239
predicted to happen at this time:
Wed Jan 14 02:58:41 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 462.
The next fortnight happens in block
933408 and probably around this time:
Wed Jan 21 22:09:05 UTC 2026
