Hi Folks,

i need to know when exactly the difficulty increase of Oct16 happend.

Is there a way to calculate back or are there some graphs that are precise enought to see?

I tried to calculate back, based on the actual average block generation speed, but i figure its not very precise.

Thx!

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

Blocks have timestamps. Difficulty goes up every 2016 blocks. Using a block explorer, find the block that triggered the difficulty change you're interested in and check its timestamp.
