I'm trying to find the current target value, but it is not listed in any place. So far I found out that the only way to get target value is to calculate it from "difficulty" value, which is now: 6,379,265,451,411 and that is found here: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty However Im not sure how do I convert that number so I can divided the maximum target over this so I can get current target. Could anyone explain how given this number 6,379,265,451,411 I can arrive at hexadecimal version of current target? Or how using nBits could I do that as well?
That figure is for March; notice it says "Updated: 81 days ago". https://www.blockchain.com/charts/difficulty shows it currently about 7.46e12. But as to the method, yes you do compute the target from nBits; dupe https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/23912/how-is-the-target-section-of-a-block-header-calculated and related https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/8806/what-is-difficulty-and-how-it-relates-to-target https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/34245/how-does-network-difficulty-relate-to-the-odds-of-finding-a-block
