Title: What's up with SXC ?
Post by: LittleDigger on August 26, 2013, 03:32:29 AM
Can't help my curiosity...

I know SXC is a popular coin, and I'm pleased about that, by my count it's rated #16, out of 123 coins in this post.

It's been growing nice and steadily, but today the network reached about 40 M/H. to put that into perspective, I looked at the averages of the hashrate of other coins on coinchoose.. Here's a list...

Americancoin    0.76 M/H
Nucoin             1.43 M/H
Craftcoin          4.46 M/H
CHNcoin           4.57 M/H
Nibble              4.91 M/H
Nanotoken        5.06 M/H
Phenixcoin        8.85 M/H
Orbitcoin        13.37 M/H
Richcoin         14.39 M/H
Elephantcoin   15.17 M/H
Redcoin          15.33 M/H
Stablecoin      19.39 M/H
Bitbar            24.00 M/H
Alphacoin       34.93 M/H

Usually the network sits in the 12-16 M/H range, the news that a new client is being tested for release is well known, and SXC hasn't hit an exchange just yet so..

Any theories or ideas on why the huge surge ? I can account for an extra 10 M/H, but the rest is a mystery...

Many of us can get 40+ mHash by ourselves...

Yeap, well aware of that, It's just suprising ... and the hashrate is still jumping around a bit.. 17 M/h, up to 32 M/h and now falling again... well, I guess I'll never know for sure, but it is curious...

And again after the difficulty drop... Looks like a bigger miner is hitting up the network until the difficulty rises, pulling his hash off til it drops again, ....rinse and repeat.. no sweat ...
