[XPM]QQQ if XPM / BLOCK = ans was 999/dif^2 what is going to sustain mining?

if block reward = XPM / BLOCK = ans was 999/dif^2 what is going to sustain mining?

= dif 30 = 1 XPM/5s

The fact that diff 30 is orders and orders of magnitude more difficult than diff 8

Meaning we probably won't get over diff 10 without GPU miners. Let alone diff 20 or 30.

A MUCH higher exchange rate and more optimized miners I'm guessing

what is the diff = function (?)

The difficulty is the length of the prime chain that must be found.

Due to the distribution of primes going from 7 to 8 primes, I believe somebody said it was 230x as rare? So from 7 to 9 would be 52900x as hard. So from 7 to 30 = 230^23 = really big.

We won't pass diff 12 for quite a while. But we'll hit 10 no problems.

The coin will either fail miserably or go up in price a large amount in the upcoming weeks because of the difficulty.
