Block #693072 is a new world record!!  Shocked  732 digits @2432 difficulty.

Thanks to the RIC community for keeping the network running smoothly  Cool

And another one - Block #705168 from a few hours ago is 745 digits @ 2473 difficulty.  Nice!

Ahem...

745 is definitely the largest 6-tuplet ever found by the Riecoin system and may qualify for the term  record,
but the World Record is still the 1037 digits 6-tuplet found by Norman Luhn in March 2016.
(and will probably be so for a long time)

But it is really good to see ordinary difficulties in the 1700s again, brings back memories from May 2014!

You're right, of course.  Record Riecoin block. Smiley 

And, further credit to Norman Luhn, his were verified primes, whereas the Riecoin blocks are likely primes until proven.
