0.9 = buwaytress
Came pretty close with the last round, though not as close as V8 and that was me overestimating my original guess. So here's another overestimation. Thanks as always for hosting this game phillip!

If it works well enough, feel free to quote it Phil. If you are overseas I will spring for the shipping of the Trezor -3.0 = isoneguy -1.3 = VRobb -1.2 = philipma1957 >>>> I always pick this number -0.2 = keystroke 0.2 = mocacinno 0.9 = buwaytress 2.2 = vapourminer And look at the diff drop the gray line has always been under so we are pretty much negative at the moment ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fbitcoinwisdom.com%2Fassets%2Fdifficulty%2Fbitcoin-hash_rate.png%3F1502539804&t=665&c=btumLNgr8XwmuA) While I have participated in these before, I have lost my sense of how the range works when we are into negative territory. If as an example, what would I choose for the following: Estimated Next Difficulty: 922,529,973,147 (-0.08%) Would that be -.1% -or- 0.0% ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) ? I'll wait a bit to make a guess, but thought I would ask now, since it seems possible to me will be in for decrease in diffiulty. Thanks for doing this again!!! -0.1 covers from -0.1 to -0.000000000000000001.... 0.0 covers from 0.0 to 0.099999999999999999... 0.1 covers from 0.1 to 0.199999999999999999... so -0.08 would be won by -0.1 not 0.0

This time I had to guess on my own. I couldn't get the cats to cooperate. The oldest was scared of the garbage truck, the middle one wasn't interested, and the youngest one was eating (he's a bit of a pig).
As always, thanks for contest Phil!

If someone wins this time, you should update your Trezor firmware as soon as you get it. They've fixed a recently found vulnerability.
The vulnerability requires physical access to the device and cracking open the case, so it's not that earth shattering. But it's still worth doing.
I updated mine as soon as it was available.

Seems like hashrate just isn't stopping on its rise to the top, just recently saw a post on r/bitcoin about hashrate reaching the highest it's ever been at. Not sure if that is true but it seems somewhat true with the recent trends.

just updated mine today, mainly to split the bcc out. whoever wins this, trezor is probably the best hardware wallet you can get.

wow this bitcoin cash drama is escalating. I expect bitcoin hashrate to go down while people switch to the most profitable coin. i mean, why wouldnt you ? But it all depends on the price. I still have my Bitcoin Cash, waiting for it to pump like crazy at the height of the drama. Dont expect it to replace bitcoin though.

BCH will soon drop their Diff -50%. Then 30+% of BTC Hashrate will switch!
