Im not sure even Jihans and Rogers hands are as strong
It may be a poker game, but BCH lost a big battle here IMO
what happened is vast majority of miners just got up and left as soon as diff increased. it means they are not supporting BCH beyond some possible quick buck.
I think BCH will try to trigger emergency diff adjustment, its the only card they have now.
for EDA to trigger there has to be less then 6 blocks mined in the past 12hrs
as you can see viabtc and unknown mined last two blocks more then 3hrs ago
I think they either gave up or will try to trigger EDA before prices start to drop too much
And this is why adaptive difficulty is bad.
This puts us back in a similar situation to when the fork first happened. Not enough hashing power to get blocks through. Price pump to encourage miners. Temporary switch. Difficulty drops. Miners follow the profit. Then follow it back. Hashing volatility in both chains.
Not good for anyone.
