Ravencoin fixed the mining difficulty adjustment problem so you don’t get a slow/stuck blockchain. Bitcoin never did and is in danger if BTC miners move to a more profitable coin due to BTC 20+ minute block times. BTC chain could be somewhat frozen.
Due to the Chinese hash down the BTC chain is very slow and it takes forever to find a block which means miners are not making as good of profit. This happened to Ravencoin back in the day when There would be mining parties when the difficulty dropped low and they would mine a shit ton of coin and then leave when the difficulty block adjustment went high. This caused the few faithful miners to slowly dig out until the difficulty adjustment came around again. This is another example of why Ravencoin is being referred to as BTC 3.0!
