Title: [CNC] What if block generation halts?
Post by: Frizz23 on May 08, 2013, 08:55:59 AM
Current difficulty is 41.8. With network hashrate dropping (750.87 MH/s at the moment) it will take longer and longer for the next difficulty adjustment (estimated next difficulty at the moment 10.5).

In case block generation stalls, is it possible that the CNC developers modify the client to manually to keep the chain going?

The TRC guys had to tweak difficulty adjustments too (and it's still broken imho).

Well in case you didn't notice, there are no active "developers" for this coin.

Coins pull through these things. Freicoin got stuck up high for three months which felt like death at the time. It is going well now.

FTC and CNC are both four times quicker than Freicoin over all.

Freicoin 10 minute block - difficulty change every 2016 blocks
Feathercoin 2.5 minute block - difficulty change every 2016 block
ChinaCoin 1 minute block - difficulty change every 5040 blocks

Feathercoin 2.5 minute block - difficulty change every 2016 block

Still it takes 15 more days for FTC to adjust to the next difficulty (188 -> 40).

Feathercoin 2.5 minute block ...

Almost 13 minutes now (at current network hashrate) and increasing.
