the growth of the network from now will be very slow, don't expect the same thing happened with peta, with exa there is a new order of magnitude, exa will be probably the final stage of bitcoin network

Slow...? Did you look at the picture? The spike seems to still be rising... It's by far the biggest increase in network size in years.
How big is the rise in percent of the whole network?

Could be testing of next generation of hardware? Or some one with deep pockets starting up another farm?

The increase seems to be both steeper and higher than the rise at New Year 2014 - what was the explanation that time?

exactly since years, that's what i mean, don't expect the same rise from tera to peta, i believe the price have the possibility to overcome the network hashrate's increase, by a long shot

But of course it will stop eventually. I'm just very curious what is - not what can be - the explanation behind this. Perhaps it's etablished hardware, but besides KnC's 16nm there have been rumours of an S7.

A new mining farm must have started. Well, after it reach 400 PH it keep growing toward 450 PH from the chart. We're near to calling Tera soon.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.
Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!
Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

I can't reproduce the chart in the article. While that one stops at 465ph, my attempts do not show more than 413ph. Here's another version that does show a sudden increase but not as high as in bitcoinagile.com:

this just shows that bitcoin is getting stronger and gains more trust of investors who invest in mining farms. a lot people predicted that the difficulty would drop to very low levels after the +$1000 ath. they were wrong

In the early days there would be threads about how easily the banks could just buy enough hardware to do a 51% attack, or some government or the Federal Reserve.
Not so many threads along those lines anymore...

By watching this I also think that some new mining hardware is in action. Or maybe a new mining company with huge bankroll to buy much miners.

Maybe because so far it's not necessary: the establishment has other means to say no to BTC. And let's be realistic: if they want they will find a way to control this. And, I think, given a certain amount of money this will be very easy. Why it is not like that? why do they do not control some PHS? that it is not clear at the moment.

It's hard to say who or what specs are. But yea some new gear, this diffiulty jump has not went crazy. But hitting 400 PH is huge milestone. I am still hoping difficulty rises slow we do not need any double digit's anymore. Will be interesting once a few have next gen what happens.

Again: Has anyone been able to reproduce the increase in hash as seen in the bitcoinagile.com article? They have used this site: http://data.bitcoinity.org]http://data.bitcoinity.org/bitcoin/hashrate/30d?c=m&t=a]http://data.bitcoinity.org to create the chart. No matter which settings I use I can't get the same spike; The closest I got is probably this shown above: However, these ones are from today: Was it a glitch that showed the strong spike? Or was it manipulated in some way?
What other tools do we have to see network size, to control if it ever was at 465pb?
