10/1/2015    153------------   + 9 ___---------  about + 4 for this adjustment period.  
10/2/2015    130 ------------   -14                      so as of 11 pm we are about a - 10
10/3/2015
10/4/2015

we have made 217 blocks we should be 231  so the real time number = (-6.06%)

frankly pretty far away from bitcoinwisdom.  but the Chinese holiday must have lowered some hashing a lot.

My guess is we pick up on Tues or Weds.

That is pretty amazing.   Wow that is a complete change on hashing.   Guess we can hope for more Chinese holiday's to help hash.

Sadly after holiday I have a feeling next batch's of S7 will be coming pretty soon.   Assuming it all works right for them.  Which we know it was not 100 percent since they had some gear not hit the right hash.

Night bitwisdom:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    60,813,224,039

Adjust time:    After 1799 Blocks, About 12.4 days
Hashrate(?):    435,821,900 GH/s

So went down slightly from earlier today. Price really 237-238 most of day.  We really have been pretty steady on price for a week or so.

Bitwisdom slowly going down:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    60,813,224,039
Estimated Next Difficulty:    62,717,302,528 (+3.13%)
Adjust time:    After 1837 Blocks, About 12.6 days
Hashrate(?):    439,673,341 GH/s

Hopefully this continues over next few day's.  I really want to see a 2 percent change again.

The interesting thing about this time period is it currently being a holiday in China.  I was surprised to see 3-4 percent.  I was hoping that we might see even smaller as no new miners should be built during this period.

And I could be a idiot and bitmain might be filling up S7's in a data center during the holiday to test.  Just waiting till after holiday to ship.  Not sure what to think with current difficulty.

Mostly everyone expected the last adjustment period to be a much larger gain, will this be the one that we were afraid of?  I wonder how many S7s Bitmain is keeping for themselves vs. selling to the public.  Maybe they are replacing hash for hash rather than machine for machine and becoming more efficient (lower power costs, more profits) without unnecessarily increasing difficulty?  Could be a viable plan to maximize income by minimizing expenses rather than brute force hash increase.

Lulz, blockr.io has:
   
Next difficulty (estimate)
51,384,481,271.24

-15.50% change to current
1933 blocks until difficulty changes


I had to read that twice to make sure I saw correctly
If only that would happen
And props to donkey for bragging rights and a cat that can predict bitcoin difficulty, I guess I haven't seen it all Smiley

its making me think back to that thread i posted about the 100 peta jump.. just wonder if they decided to ease it in rather than dump it on all at once.. looks like another 10 peta online at f2pool.  seems maybe they are either expanding or someone using there pool to test new hw possibly..     F2Pool   24.16 %   108.05 PHs  src.. https://chain.btc.com/en/stats/pool?pool_mode=day  again reason i dont think its variance is i dont see antpool jump 10 -15 peta up and down with variance.. Maybe just a couple at most..
