Yeah, it'll be slower, but that just gives each client more time to try to generate the difficult hash.<br/></div><br/>Of course, this happened right after the difficulty kicked up to 511.7, so all these new "good" blocks will have to contend with that. And a good chunk of the network grind power is off on the wrong chain, so new blocks may take a lot longer than 10min to find. At what point will the balancing figure this out and possibly kick the difficulty back down again?</div> text/html
