=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=939297
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1772649209
This is average time to mine a block
(1772649209-1231006505)/939297
bts=576.6462869078822695246875
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 14:54:42 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 939939
predicted to happen at this time:
Mon Mar 9 01:23:35 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 465.
The next fortnight happens in block
939456 and probably around this time:
Thu Mar 5 20:01:35 UTC 2026
