Title: Took one hour for the last block?
Post by: Fking on November 07, 2013, 03:39:48 PM
It took one hour for the last block to be created, is it just bad luck or is there more to it?

Some are few seconds, some 2 hours, it depends though. And also it's not a problem because pools have long pooling.

The longer the better.... in terms of slowing the increasing difficulties changes.

I wonder how much the longest time was for a block to be created...
Just out of curiosity  :D

Seen longer, you should check how much nodes are connected. If there are no nodes connected, it will not show any blocks created.
