Bitcoin Diamond is a Bitcoin hard fork initiated because of perceived weaknesses in Bitcoin's on-chain scaling and mining decentralization design. Bitcoin Diamond forked from Bitcoin at block 495,866 on November 24, 2017. It builds on the Bitcoin Core codebase and uses an Optimized Proof-of-Work X13 consensus algorithm that aims for an ASIC-resistant network. Bitcoin Diamond supports 8 to 32 MB block sizes, according to the white paper. New blocks are added on average every 10 minutes, and mining difficulty adjusts every 12 hours. Bitcoin Diamond supports SegWit.
