Title: Bitcoin Difficulty Prediction Chart
Post by: BlazinBeaches on June 14, 2013, 08:40:34 PM
I've seen a couple of these but I can't seem to find them again

Where are some prediction charts? :)

That's making to be a pretty nice hockey stick.  Come sept/oct when KNC delivers, we shall see.

I wrote this a little time back.

It is an exponential starting at the beginning of the year with the introduction of the new avalon batch, so I figured it might not be a bad model.

The original Wolfram alpha exponential seems little light, so I upped it by hand a little.  With the unexpected short shutdown of AM, we are tracking a bit ahead of reality, but it may catch back up.

This is obviously extremely speculative... but I found it interesting.

This is definitively what you are looking for: http://coinplorer.com/Charts/Difficulty/BTC (http://coinplorer.com/Charts/Difficulty/BTC) (disclaimer: I own the website ^^ but it doesn't make it bad...)

No but its prediction seems to be based on the assumption that the latest hashrate will remain constant, and that does make it bad.
BTW, your difficulty curve is wrong, you spread the difficulty increase over 3 days, while of course its instantaneous.

This is the best difficulty predictor I know:

I've added a "dotted" line to tell people what hashrate estimate I take (see http://coinplorer.com/Charts/Difficulty/BTC (http://coinplorer.com/Charts/Difficulty/BTC)).
The difficulty seems to be spread over 3 days because each point of the line is 1 day, so the day the difficulty changes it takes the average difficulty of blocks found on this day. This doesn't affect how difficulty predictions are calculated though.

this is of course unrealistic as it would result in 180.000 TH. the 100% network speed by now is somewhere around 5.000 TH. the difficulty is not parallel to hash rate.
