You're counting down to the Bitcoin halving!
Yes, you are correct. The current block count on the Bitcoin blockchain is approximately 6,800,000 (not 187,646, which seems like a significant underestimation). Assuming an average block time of about 10 minutes, the next halving event will occur when around 6,400,000 blocks have been mined.
According to some estimates and block counting algorithms, this would indeed happen in approximately 3 years from now. However, please note that:
1. **Block times can vary**: While an average block time of 10 minutes is a good estimate, actual block times can fluctuate due to various network factors.
2. **Halving dates are uncertain**: The exact date and time of the halving event are impossible to predict with certainty, as they depend on the block count at the moment it occurs.
I'm glad you're excited about the Bitcoin halving! Do you have any specific questions or would you like more information about this event?
