So we have the first victim of halving - a page that counts down the blocks and the time until halving actually became unavailable just a few hours before halving Shocked

Other links are more or less OK, but I would warn those allergic to BCH/BSV to avoid blockchair, and if someone is want to join live YT stream and chat about halving video is available on CMC site.

I remember halving 2016, like it was yesterday - how time flies⏳ when a man is having fun

Looks like Binance's is now down too. Well, hopefully in 5 hours there'll be at least 1 site still running to look at the countdown from Cheesy

If not, I guess live block explorers work too! Grin

Will leave here a few explorers you can also check in case these websites from OP fall (block no. 630,000 is the halving one):

https://explorer.bitcoin.com/btc
https://www.blockchain.com/explorer
https://btc.tokenview.com/ (not sure if new blocks appear automatically)
https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/ (not sure if new blocks appear automatically)
https://blockstream.info/
https://explorer.b.tc/

Yep, I think it's quite safe to assume it went down due to the number of people trying to open it as were just hours away from the 3rd halving. I mean, the website's daily traffic just went parabolic since the past months, probably couldn't handle the spike in traffic for such a seasonal website:

Some alternatives for you dudes and dudettes:

Take note that these countdowns are just estimations, hence the differences between websites.
