Topic: [Poll] When will block reward half? (Read 3564 times)
BTCGuild got the last 50btc block and slush got the first 25btcblock. Looks like majority of voters got it right. So now it's time to shut down my GPU miners.
Call me sentimental but I was listening to 'Con te partirò' for the last block.
So long to the days of wild abandon. Cheers mates!

Slush got the last one.
EDIT: By last I mean the famous "block 210000"

whos next?
whos next?
9 blocks to go...at this rate, just over an hour away to the split. See you guys on the other side! 
125 to go!!!!!!!!!!! 
I'll still be profitable even after the halving. Go from making ~$4.50 a day after power to $1.90 a day though, at least at current exchange rates.
My GPUs will be profitable right up until ASICs launch.
I was curious about your numbers; they suggest you pay $0.70 a day for power, on a gross profit of $5.20 (a 13% operating loss). That is excellent efficiency for a GPU miner. My GPUs will be profitable right up until ASICs launch.
My FPGA miners have a 6% loss (electricity is $0.08/kWh for me), so your GPUs aren't that far off with 13%.
Which is a nice way of saying...
BS!
Well that's pretty handy. Tomorrow (11/28) at 2pm EST is the predicted split...though if the hash rate keeps increasing it could come a bit sooner.
230 and tick tick ticking away!!

I think that the block halving will happen around Tuesday(11/27/12).
Difficulty is notching up slightly in 60 blocks (in about 9 hours, 4:30am PST 11/26/12), which is likely to slightly slow blockrate, after which there will be 336 blocks left, at ~6blocks / hr, will be about 56hours, or 2 1/3rd days, so likely about Noon on 11/28/12. But it's not very impressive predicting that with so few blocks left
