Topic: February difficulty spike? (Read 420 times)
haha epic but alot of its still GPU's just it getting profitable to run pretty much anything that can hash at the moment same as with litecoin its more than tripled in the last week same with PPcoin think that went up nearly 8 times everything's getting hammered not to mention the poor pool servers trying to keep up with everything
It looks like a huge amount of hashing capacity joined the network in feb:

This seems to have preceded the current price run by 6 weeks or so. Did a lot of people get into mining at once? I was under the impression that not that many ASICs had been released yet, and this is a tripling of hash capacity since 2/1 and now. Is there somewhere to see the total number of nodes on the network? I'm curious as to how that hashing capacity is spread out.
I assume that at the very least the pools would have that information... is it aggregated anywhere?

Many ASICs have been released.
