I agree with buwaytress right now- with all the money and interests involved in mining right now the chances of guessing the difficulty is tiny, and even data is difficult to get at. Another competition in a discussion thread would be nice, but I don’t know what that competition could be about. I would suggest mempool size but the mempool spams nowadays are popping up everywhere. The next month will be crucial though.

well  on a fun level  it just is not here for me.

these alterations in BTC vs BCC/BCH and next fork can no longer be taken lightly.

There is a shit ton of money  involved  well over 100 billion usd in coins now closer to 160 billion.

I think I will freeze contest and just open a discussion thread.  in speculation as to the consequences of the current moves being made.

yeah if its not fun then its time to stop.

too much hash controlled by a single entity, hash goes where they want. we would not be trying to predict a trend, we would be trying to predict one entities actions.
