isnt the difficulty 7,019,199,231,177.173 right now? not 6,727,225,469,722  

You are right. The last difficulty was 6,727,225,469,722. Adjustment happened ~400 blocks ago.
Don't know where this old data came from  Grin



And I thought max value of a 32 bit can be 2,147,483,647 where did the 4,294,967,295 come from?

32 bit can represent 232 (= 4.294.967.296) different numbers. So from 0 to 4.294.967.295.

2,147,483,647 is the max number if you want to store positive and negative values inside a 32 bit variable.
But the overall amount of values a 32 bit integer can represent is 4.294.967.296


alright yeah things are clearer now haha Cheesy thanks.
