Interesting point that you make.  I don't track BCH prices and just mine BTC blindly.  But I'm not to concern about the drop in price since it's going to be huge!  A 35% difficulty reduction even at $6800 will be mean I'm mining and making $9180 in today's value.  We can go all the way back to $4500 before I would start to show any concern.

So what happen here???  Am I wasting my time looking at bitcoin wisdom site?  It was stating -35% step, but it ending up only being -6%.  Can anyone explain this to me.  Is the site not working anymore or was there a last minute push of hashrate just before difficulty was to update?

bitcoinwisdom  is a joke for months.

If you look at the first post I said about -7%  

if you want to it manually you can do it that way.  which is what I did.
    1 block  in 10 minutes = 0%
    6 blocks in 1 hour       = 0%
144 blocks in 24 hours    = 0%
2016 blocks in 2 weeks   = 0%


we are at 2012 Blocks

4 blocks made in 50 minutes so far   should be 5 blocks

that is really slow and a huge drop  but only 4 blocks in.
