Title: Next difficulty increase or decrease? Post by: mute20 on August 23, 2011, 06:37:26 PM I am gonna take a guess and say it will increase. Not by much maybe by 30000. What do you think will happen?

<gribble> 4.64049603109 % estimated difficulty change this period i'm thinking it could go higher as ppl come back from other *coins and there are still (believe it or not) ppl adding mining hardware to the network.

So it will increase :) Title: Re: Next difficulty increase or decrease? Post by: mute20 on August 24, 2011, 07:20:23 PM Seems like a big difference on bitcoincharts today
Difficulty 1806098 Estimated 1808869 in 713 blks Title: Re: Next difficulty increase or decrease? Post by: rotrott on August 24, 2011, 09:54:57 PM Are these spikes caused by variance in solving blocks or are they actually caused by adding and taking away network hashes? It seems strange that 3 thash would be added and taken away in just a few days...
Title: Re: Next difficulty increase or decrease? Post by: gw4tt on August 24, 2011, 10:02:12 PM Every time a new coin comes out around 1 - 2 TH moves around. If another coin is more profitable, a TH or 2 might go to that coin as well.
Luck also plays a factor, but a lot of mining power has been moving around back and forth with the new coins. Title: Re: Next difficulty increase or decrease? Post by: geek-trader on August 24, 2011, 10:21:25 PM Well, as a bitcoin miner that stays in bitcoin, keep the stupidcoins coming! ;D
