Is the current -9.48% difficulty adjustment now because Texas miners are asked to power down to help the struggling grid? 
Discussion
Got one in Texas, it did have some hours of downtime but overall it's still boiling the ocean like it's supposed to.
Well, singular mines are different compared to industrial mines. I saw a nostr:npub1hxwmegqcfgevu4vsfjex0v3wgdyz8jtlgx8ndkh46t0lphtmtsnsuf40pf tweet about grid asking miners to help.
they have that much mining going on in Texas? Any sources out of pure curiosity?
Not just Texan miners. The diff adjustment was up 6.45% last time so pretty sure some other miners that have high energy costs unplugged as well. 
thanks for the quick reply man! Great thoughts as ever.
I love the whole game theory aspect behind switching on and switching off mining equipment. The system seems to have the correct feedback loops in place to make it sustainable.
How much should we worry about the "green coefficient" behind the mining business? (Just wrote a quick note on the topic..)
Itās because itās very early in the adjustment cycle and the previous adjustment was up over 6%. The estimate is off because there isnāt enough data currently to be accurate
