Aw hell yeah! Looking forward to it, Phil. 8) Have to find an older thread with the rules ;D https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1484047.msg14964950#msg14964950 I am checking this list of rules from older thread 1)you must have been on this site since April 1st 2016 you must have at least 30 posts. -- Make it from Feb 1 2017 2)I will check you out if you are new and decide if you can play. 3)you get one play per adjustment. which must be yours alone, in proper format and can not be changed. 4)Do not pick someone else's number If you do I will assign a number and that will not be changed 5) picks start at: Bitcoin Difficulty: Estimated Next Difficulty: Adjust time: Block 1116 Hashrate(?): Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 3 blocks: 6 blocks: Updated: 6) picks end at Bitcoin Difficulty: Estimated Next Difficulty: Adjust time: 516 Hashrate(?): Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 3 blocks: 6 blocks: Updated: 7) since this is a free contest I make all decisions if there are any issues or problems. 8 ) note the change picks start later and end late in the hope of helping a person to pick a winner. 9) format is below and this is the contest picks from 2016 in code as low as you want -1.0 -0.9 -0.8 -0.7 -0.6 -0.5 -0.4 -0.3 -0.2 -0.1 0.0 +0.1 +0.2 +0.3 +0.4 +0.5 +0.6 +0.7 +0.8 +0.9 +1.0 to as high as you want Code: -1.2 = philipma1957 >>>> I always pick this number Code: Difficulty History 10) Finally If I missed anything I will be the sole decider as to what is fair.

Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST! PRIZES ARE 1 LTC AND A COMPAC STICK Post by: QuintLeo on May 27, 2017, 05:53:12 AM If it doesn't jump that much, it will be due to the massive price "correction" the last day or so.
The last 2 diff jumps have both been pretty close to 7% (one over one under), the one we're working on now looks to be close to that when it finishes (it's a bit OVER right now per bitcoinwisdom, was 7.6 when I asked for the 7.0% spot) - I don't see any reason other than Bitmain AND at least 2 of the other miner makers run out of chips for at least the next week for it to be a lot lower. 8-O On the other hand, the current "correction" on Bitcoin price might convince a few would-be miner buyers to hold off. Or it might get them wanting to buy faster to stock up more coin before the next surge hits..... Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST! PRIZES ARE 1 LTC AND A COMPAC STICK Post by: alh on May 27, 2017, 09:27:55 AM I too want to congratulate Phil on deciding to undertake this again!!!
As for the future, while the last week has seen a significant "correction" in the price of BTC, the longer trend of 6 months has been very good in terms of price appreciation. I always believe that hashrate follows BTC price, obviously with some lag time for folks acquire and start mining. Once that's happened, it will usually take a significant long term decline in BTC price to force out inefficient mining hardware from the global BTC network. Looking back 6 months, $2000/BTC still looks pretty good, even if it was $2700/BTC just in the last few days. Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST!

Our cats stand ready to reprise their former glory by accurately guessing the difficulty! Still got the cats. Well next jump will be interesting to say the least. This one is a big one https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty Bitcoin Difficulty: 595,921,917,085 Estimated Next Difficulty: 674,924,138,418 (+13.26%) Adjust time: After 173 Blocks, About 1.0 days Hashrate(?): 4,963,391,009 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 8.6 minutes 3 blocks: 25.9 minutes 6 blocks: 51.8 minutes Updated: 10:10 (2.5 minutes ago) It will be over 10% for sure and could push 14% I have to figure a much lower one coming up. Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST! PRIZES ARE 1 LTC AND A COMPAC STICK Post by: QuintLeo on June 03, 2017, 11:12:46 PM Looks like Bitmain got a new batch of S9/T9/R4 chips in *AND* someone else (Caanan or Bitfury most likely) also got a new batch of chips in and sold/online over the last week.
Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST! PRIZES ARE 1 LTC AND A COMPAC STICK Post by: edonkey on June 04, 2017, 02:10:27 PM Definitely someone is adding hash to the network. We're looking at nearly a 14% increase in the next 20 minutes.

We're looking at nearly a 14% increase in the next 20 minutes. yep very close to 14% Bitcoin Difficulty: 595,921,917,085 Estimated Next Difficulty: 679,134,187,721 (+13.96%) Adjust time: After 2 Blocks, About 16.8 minutes Hashrate(?): 5,014,813,215 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 8.4 minutes 3 blocks: 25.2 minutes 6 blocks: 50.5 minutes Updated: 10:20 (4.8 minutes ago) Difficulty History Date Difficulty Change Hash Rate May 23 2017 595,921,917,085 6.42% 4,265,775,241 GH/s May 10 2017 559,970,892,891 7.28% 4,008,427,786 GH/s Apr 27 2017 521,974,519,554 0.22% 3,736,439,151 GH/s so on April 27th diff = 521.9 and on June 4th diff = 680 ? 680/521.9 = 1.303 or 30% jump coin price today = 2500 coin price on apr 25th was about 1300 so 2500/1300 = 1.923 or a 92% price jump so if the april 25-27 numbers are close to correct . we need 4 more diff jumps of 10% to even out . So we would be at a 994 diff! Damn that is big but if price holds at 2500 a 994 diff is the same as a 521 diff at 1300 price. You wonder how fast we can ramp up to the 994 level. https://i.imgur.com/sHUk3Cj.png Title: Re: BLAST FROM THE PAST A DIFFICULTY CONTEST!
