Title: July 21, 2011 - Namecoins reactivation ? Post by: coinotron on July 20, 2011, 07:46:02 AM According to dot-bit.org (http://"http://dot-bit.org/tools/nextDifficulty.php") on 2011-07-21 namecoins difficulty will decrease from 55000 to 23000.
Maybe namecoins mining will become more popular ? :) If you are interested, please visit our pool (http://"http://coinotron.com") and see how changes hash rate of namecoins part.

It means that namecoin lost more then 50% of its Speed since last difficulty change. Whats the reason for this? Does anything know about this?

And after few days someone withdraw a lot of hashing power, leaving namecoins network with high difficulty and low hash power.

Post by: Kartoff on July 20, 2011, 09:12:43 AM Thats happen maybe because there are smaller amount of people mining namecoins and they decide to abandon network for a couple of weeks and to dig bitcoins then difficulty will fall and they will go back to mine again but at half difficulty... I dig namecoins now and it is werry funny because of amount of namecoins mined at a time :)

As an expected result it was mined to the point where it was no longer more profitable than bitcoins, and so many people left to return to bitcoin. On 7/21 is will be about 2x as profitable to mine namecoin as bitcoin if the exchange holds steady, and we will see a repeat. Short burst of high hashpower leading to a huge jump in difficulty followed by a pulling out of hash power leaving namecoin to suffer for a month or two.
Thanks for reminding me though, that I need to start preparing for the namecoin burst. |
