Difficulty seems to be dropping as the low price of Bitcoin has cut into mining profits. This may help to stabilize Bitcoin price.

This phenomenon helps miners who have bought into yearly contracts and are HODLERS as they will receive more Bitcoins which they expect to hold long term anyways.

You have to be crazy to buy mining equipment, so I am not surprised that difficulty is plateauing until the next generation miners are released.

It's the beginning of the end.

it may be a good thing, could encourage small miner to join again

a reset is always needed , and it's inevitable
