So you can't compare the diff of DCR/ETH/SIA because mining speeds are also different because they use different hashing algorithms.

Every coin have different difficulty and you can not equalize each others
Title: Re: does a high difficulty mean it is harder to find a block Post by: speedyb on August 18, 2017, 05:52:24 PM so it sounds like i need a second set of numbers to check how long it takes for each block and wich ones i can get more blocks of faster?
so when reading a whattomine chart what numbers do i need to figure out how long it takes to mine a block in a specific coin? Title: Re: does a high difficulty mean it is harder to find a block Post by: Merlig on August 19, 2017, 08:22:02 AM For ETH you can use this calculator:

You have to compare coins with the same algorithm. You can not compare btc and ltc as they use different work to find a block and different miners to do that. Start with coins with the same algorithm and go from there Title: Re: does a high difficulty mean it is harder to find a block Post by: LoneRangir on August 19, 2017, 01:30:24 PM When you're looking at whattomine, the BT value shows you, on average, how often the network will find a block. Then you need to consider how often your pool finds a block on the network. And then, what your share is of your pool's hash rate.
The difficulty is adjusted so that the overall network hashrate finds a block every BT seconds/minutes on average. BT - Block Time BR - Block Reward LB - Time of Last Block Title: Re: does a high difficulty mean it is harder to find a block Post by: speedyb on September 16, 2017, 09:52:30 PM what does a high difficulty share mean?
