Title: Block Alert? Post by: BTC Turkiye on February 28, 2018, 11:58:14 AM Is there a website that sends you a notification when a specific block has been produced/mined/confirmed?
I`d like to get a notification, when let`s say 511389 block has appeared in Blockchain but I couldn`t find anything from a google search Title: Re: Block Alert?

I`d like to get a notification, when let`s say 511389 block has appeared in Blockchain but I couldn`t find anything from a google search Interesting question indeed. Unfortunately I don't have the answer myself. Usually I make an assumption of when it is likely to happen and then visit blockchain.info to see. Title: Re: Block Alert? Post by: bug.lady on February 28, 2018, 12:23:06 PM No that I know of, but you can estimate that time very precisely. I know that there is a serious deviation when it comes to mining time of one or several blocks, but the more blocks you want to estimate in advance, the more it will be a multitude of 10 minute intervals thanks to 'regretion to the mean' phenomenon. Then you just need to check the blockchain a week, than say two days in advance, than one day in advance and correct your estimation and you are good to go.
Unless you want to do it for multiple blocks and regularly, then what I have described above is not at all feasible, true. |
