In 2023 it was 28. See /knowledgeispower/by-the-end-of-2023-how-many-billion .
Close date might be extended if the NCEI publication isn't available yet. It was Jan 9th for the previous year.

@DavidFWatson Yes, eventually. I trying to figure out in which direction though. Currently, it seems people would rather bet on higher numbers. Added "30" for now.
@marktwse So, that's not unreasonable, but perhaps going forward you might create further answers as ranges? So like: 20-26 and 31-35?
