=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=953585
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1781410703
This is average time to mine a block
(1781410703-1231006505)/953585
bts=577.1940842252298167129131
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 19 06:41:10 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 954459
predicted to happen at this time:
Sat Jun 20 00:26:10 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 473.
The next fortnight happens in block
955584 and probably around this time:
Sat Jun 27 12:48:33 UTC 2026
