There is something going on in the world of btc being done at big levels.
I see btc diff dropping more then 20%
hashrate is about 6,700,000,000 for the current diff of close to 886,000,000,000
I can do longer find current diff numbers live time
and current hash rate according to viabtc is at 4,700,000,000
Why are the live time diff trackers off line?
My guess is people are switching to mine bitcoin cash due to low difficulty - read

... you'd have to actually check the numbers, rather than believe anything written about it by who knows who, who happened to pick one specific point in time and pretend that the rest of eternity will be the same

It's like that dumb alt-coin hopping that looks at the price now and decides based on that ... lulz when the price drops badly after you stop mining but before you sell the shitcoins

(that's expected to happen ...)
