This is probably better than 95% of all difficulty algorithms currently in use. This has half as many delays and blocks lost to big miners as Digishield. It's a few...
## **Upper Timestamp Limit** There is not a real-time clock in cryptocoins that has an accurate time except for the median time of node peers (or of just single peers)....
These are my comments each section of Orbital coin's difficulty algorithm. I've simplified the code for readability. There's no missing code. ``` // POW only // ####### Begin OSS algorithm...
## Do not use this algorithm **The problem is that there is a sweet spot in attacking, shown here:**  ================== Come back to check before doing any pull or...
Here "failure" means a delay was over 40 minutes in a T=120 coin. I have not seen a 3 hour delay in an LWMA. Before LWMA, "failure" meant a 3...
The charts below show the full difficulty history of 5 Monero clones that switched from the Cryptonote default difficulty algorithm (simple moving average with N=720) to **[LWMA difficulty algorithm](https://github.com/zawy12/difficulty-algorithms/issues/3)**. #...
The Dynamic LWMA is here: https://github.com/zawy12/difficulty-algorithms/wiki/Dynamic-LWMA Use this page to discuss the LWMA if you are not part of our Discord channel.  This is not completely without any drawback....
This one is here for historical purposes. The [EMA-Z](https://github.com/zawy12/difficulty-algorithms/issues/17) is preferred over this one because this one can't handle zero solvetimes, requires e^-x calculation, and can't be done with integer...
Has anyone used difficulty to get constant-dollar developer or node fees? Difficulty is exactly proportional to network hashrate, and network hashrate is closely proportional to coin price. Say a coin...
