      The multipools are using their large hash rate to manipulate the difficulty. It is the difference between the Diffculty and the next potential drop in difficulty at the ReTarget the Mutltipools are exploiting.

      Currently they have driven it up to 185 when it should be 165 for the current hash rate.

      It we increased our miners to 4 GHash/s over the next block, then slowly by say, 0.1 GHash/s per week, there would be no Difficulty Difference to leach from.

          Sure is taking a while to retarget. Projected difficulty is in the 16x range.

            Would it be helpful at all if I were to add a Network Hashrate metric here: [url=http://www.cryptocoinstats.com/]http://www.cryptocoinstats.com/[/url]

            Wrapper, I’m wondering if it would help to graph the Network Hashrate against Difficulty.

                Welp, I’m down. Crashed during saving the config file and next thing I know cgminer isn’t doing squat and is panicking when I try launching it.

                {sigh} I guess I needed a fresh reinstall anyway.

                  Have you tried SGMiner? I’m getting rock solid stability from it…

                      Pointed some more GPU’s, can’t believe how low the network rate is now.

                        Thanks everyone! We’re back on track for target time now.

                        Looks like there’s some hoppers still on, but difficulty isn’t as insane as before.

                          Thanks mnstrcck for the heads up. We should all have our eye on the network hashrate, and when it starts to fall, send out an alert just like this.

                              It’s actually a very profitable time to mine Feathercoin. I was a loyal Feathercoin miner at 250 Diff and 10p price. So, in some ways, we have never had it so good.

                              You are right tho’ a few more miners and the coin hoppers wouldn’t be so effective.

                                Wow, never knew FTC network hit 250 difficulty before.

                                I started mining FTC when the network difficulty was around 120-160.

                                So as it stands, it’s considered pretty bad to me ::)

                                    Staying locked into one is probably wise if your equipment is already paid off.

                                    Greed catches the rest of us; some really good days, some really bad days.

                                        Wrapper and anyone else interested. I’ve added Hashrate Tracking to my website. Currently I only have 3 days worth of data, but I’m sampling every 15 minutes and taking an average per day. Click on the checkbox next to Feathercoin to see a graph with difficulty included.

                                          Thanks for that Tuneman, 15 mins seems a good compromise. Some real data will help us decide the best action.
