Yeah, I am also wondering what's going on.

So it's went over 80% and has now dropped below. Why would they do this?

What is the advantage of doing that?


The advantage is making a shit ton of money. If I had control of a significant amount of hashrate (2%+) I'd be changing my signalling to manipulate the markets.
It could be just as easy as:
  • Turn on signalling
  • Signalling goes over 80%
  • BTC price increases
  • Dump BTC
  • Turn off signalling
  • Load up on cheaper coins
