It looks like the next BTC difficulty adjustment is in about 10 days, however, this time it appears it will be going DOWN by about 15%.
And who cares about that? most people who own bitcoin at the moment are not looking at the difficulty or whatever do you want to call it.
It is very sad, but 90% of all the bitcoin holders are just in here for money, and they do not care about block sizes, difficulties, fees, and all the other stuff, they want to make a quick buck and that is it.
But yes, no one knows if they are going to do another attack, but let's all hope for do not see it happening, i do not want to see ultra expensive prices again.
