Topic: Pool for guessing the hour of the block reward halving? (Read 676 times)
Thanks for the correction.
The block reward drops to 25 BTC at the 210001 block.
Just to clarify, the source reads:
Code:
nSubsidy >>= (nHeight / 210000);
- https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/main.cpp#L1011The genesis block does start at block height 0, so while the block reward halving will occur first with the 210,001st block, the block height for that block will be block height 210,000.
The block reward drops to 25 BTC at the 210001 block. We are at 204K at this point. I'm predicting Tuesday November 27th, at 4:30pm Eastern Standard Time (+- 30 minutes, so anytime between 4pm & 5pm)
You can only call up to an hour long time frame, and you must specify that hour long time frame. Only the first person to claim that time period can claim the pot.
You must pledge to send 1 BTC to the winner to post, otherwise your post will be ignored (and likely deleted by me) for failure to conform to the pool bet rules.
You may not make more than one claim, and you may not withdraw your claim once posted.
If the time frame of the actual block reward halving is not claimed by anyone before Midnight GMT, October 31st (start of November 1st); then this pool wager is dissolved and no payouts are due.
I hereby pledge 1 BTC to the winner of this pool.
