Title: Mining difficulty in ZEC Post by: Pakal on August 20, 2017, 04:04:43 AM New to the cryptoworld , so bear with my noob question.
While the BTC has a mining difficulty that changes every 2016 blocks, I noticed that the ZEC ( like pretty much all the ALTcoins ) have a mining difficulty that is constantly changing. Can someone explain me how it works ?
