right now bitcoin cash has officially turned into a big joke!

first there were rarely 1 block every 2 or 3 hours, then things became better and normal 10 min on average was the time between blocks.

then they reduced the difficulty to bring in more miners and ended up with 1000 blocks in 1 day.

now miners have left it one more time and there is nearly no block being mined any more.



the other funny thing is that the 1 block after 6 hours (the last block in the above pic0 is only 748 kB big.
you'd think after 6 hours it would be fuller !!!!

It's going to carry on like this for another few months.

Meanwhile bitcoin is now finding blocks every 7 minutes! At some point the difficulties will equalise and things will settle down.
