Did you get that from a specific site? or your own stats? I've been looking into the the last two days, and I see from 8 minutes, until this point at about 6 minutes.
Id like to create my own graphing for these but have to setup a server to do so.

These were taken from the https://blockchain.info homepage. When I clicked that link to check it, I was greeted with this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FTE9MPsE.png&t=665&c=BvGCJCAq_QK3nw) Those ASICs are really killin' it. A HUGE difficulty spike is coming.

It looks normal to me.
Really? The target is 10 minutes.

The difficulty is projected to jump 30% in a day or two. Maybe it will even jump by 35%... craziness.
Sometimes I wonder if the world in 20 years will be full of bitcoin miners in everything. Rooftops, sidewalks, mountains... all mining bitcoins. Aliens will come visit us to find the human race strangely obsessed with counting its money.

Thanks @Jaxkr I thought you had a different chart somewhere. I just use the API but its not historical (unless the API offers that too, Id like to know where) https://blockchain.info/q/intervalkosta

Yes it is. Unfortunately I don't know how that average is done. IF its just for the current difficulty or a longer period.

You think that's weird? Check this out: https://i.imgur.com/oN6sVvo.pngAccording to blockchain.info blocks #271704 and #271705 are both slightly older than #271703 Hmm...

In the case of my screenshot it's more about block timestamps being out of order. If a block builds on its predecessor in the chain, surely its timestamp should be after the timestamp of the predecessor.
Then again, I've just read about a block whose timestamp was "in the 1970s", so I guess the block timestamps do not need to follow chronologically.
So I guess with the rapid increase of hashrate, these out-of-order block timestamps will be more common just before dif is ajusted.

This is interesting, although I've already noticed it on the confirmation times.

Quick question. If everyone was to stop mining, would difficulty go down? What I'm asking is, can difficulty go down, or can it only go up?

Off-topic, but yes difficulty can go down. It adapts every 2016 blocks, to maintain the 1 block every 10 minutes average.
