For the last 48 hours or so Bitcoin SV has been more profitable to mine than BTC. These (
https://sv.coin.dance/blocks) block size stats suggest stable and organic growth given the apps and use-cases built on top of the BSV block chain. The majority of transactions come from a weather app, Twetch, Bitstagram, bitpico and other content creating applications built on top of the BSV blockchain with a monetary incentive. A direct result of these apps have created real micro-payment volume and these applications seem to be increasing daily. For this reason I expect a lot of miners to switch over to BSV within the next month.
It's more profitable per miner only because the hashrate is declining. Less miners = more reward per miner.
The hash-rate has near double since the beginning of June and the price has fallen nearly 50% since. The stat we are looking at are the size of the blocks mined, they have increased in a very stable and strong upwards line that does not seem to be slowing down. We're looking at the chart that says: 'Bitcoin and Bitcoin SV Block sizes.' BSV is on pace to pass BTC this month assuming the same pace of growth.
When you fill your blocks with useless publicly and freely available data, you can inflate the block size to support a narrative. Easy peasy.
2 of the last 30 BSV blocks are bigger than the smallest off the last 30 BTC blocks, even though BTC doesn't process BS data.
