Well this jump is showing the huge drop was more because of cold weather than anything else

I did not expect to gain back all of the drop which means we go from 125t to 141t
but the charts show we may do that.
Still very very very early. We may see some game theory and hash falling back in days 10,11,12,13,14 of the jump
remember there is enough hash to be at a diff of 155t
