The next Bitcoin difficulty increase is 16%. 55 Terra Hashes, and is equal to the total Bitcoin difficulty up to September 2015, nearly 7 years in Bitcoin 8 year history. Amazing!

"Testing". AKA, making your miners less profitable by the time they get to you.

LOL! It is business what are you expecting? But at least if you are the first one to avail it, you will have an advantage over other miners. This includes overpriced items plus next to less profitable machine because they are already testing another batch of newer model machine for mining.

Nice, good figures.

So the 16% difficulty increase in the last 2 weeks is equal to the total hash power 16 months ago. Sorry, just trying to get that in my head.
Any new pools started?

Er, is it the bitcoin.com pool?
