=====================================
Bitcoin Block Halving prediction
=====================================
bc=939164
gbt=1231006505
bbt=1772561351
This is average time to mine a block
(1772561351-1231006505)/939164
bts=576.6343997061219274568366
Now let's multiply that by 1050000
which is the block number of next
halving and get the prediction:
Sun Mar 12 11:26:41 UTC 2028
-------------------------------------
Next palindrome will be 939939
predicted to happen at this time:
Sun Mar 8 22:17:22 UTC 2026
-------------------------------------
Current mining epoch number is 465.
The next fortnight happens in block
939456 and probably around this time:
Thu Mar 5 16:55:28 UTC 2026
