Resolves once the answer is publicly known. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_computation_of_%CF%80 Mar 9,

This is referring to base 10, and counting starts after the decimal point. (e.g. "1" is the first digit, "4" is the second, etc.)

Interestingly, it might not be published even when computed.

If you want to store quadrillion digits in ASCII text (for example to publish on a website), it'll take about a petabyte of storage, so an arbitrary digit might not be publicly available.

There is a method to calculate a digit of pi without having to calculate all the preceding digits... https://mathworld.wolfram.com/Digit-ExtractionAlgorithm.html

So someone just has to calculate it...

@OliverMattos that's in base 16 though. I am assuming this market is asking in base 10.

predicts YES

@mariopasquato Yes, base 10.

How do you count digits? Is the second digit a 4? Or is it the third digit that's a 4?

predicts YES

Starts after the decimal point, so the second digit is a 4.

bought Ṁ1 of YES
@PatrickDelaney In base 10. :P

You didn't specify a base for the number system.
