Element, formerly known as Vector and Riot, is a glossy Matrix collaboration client built using the Matrix React SDK. It offers teams, friends and organizations a secure, all in one chat app that is protected from pesky ads and data mining methods. All communications are done through the open global Matrix network, secured with end-to-end encryption. Element gives you all the services you need from a chat app: group chat, video calls, file sharing and more-- all done securely and in total privacy. Element has three different tiers of support for different environments, the most supported being the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari on desktop OSes.

...If there is a new validation leader in one mining cycle (the time for generating 3 blocks), this mining cycle will take longer to finish, and difficulty for mining the following block will lower down. (The validators take turns to generate blocks, and a validator which has generated a block is considered the validation leader of that block.) Therefore, the increase in mining time caused in this way has nothing to do with the actual computing power.
