        Well if nothing else it will make mining much more profitable. :-)

            Cool many thanks for that, it looks like the next difficulty is “108.15892049366”, not sure where lizhi got the 99.93 from?

              The estimate changes overtime depending on how fast the blocks are being found. I guess some more miners joined the fun and sped things up. :)

                Ah okay, thanks for the calcification.

                I noticed how it fluctuates, but mostly in the upwards direction of course. Surprised it could even go down tbh.

                  It goes up and down because it’s relying on the last X number of blocks solved and how long it took to solve them where X = number of blocks between re-targets. As hash rate increases, blocks are solved faster and the next difficulty will rise to accommodate. The inverse happens when hash rate drops and blocks are solved slower.

                  Excellent, many thanks for the clarification. Also, I checked out your pool, it looks good. My rig equipment is coming on Tuesday, 2x 7950. I might hop along.

                  Cheers.
