I just noticed - I think there's something wrong with your chart. 17 bitcoiners per  10 megahookers? That's nearly six hundred thousand hookers per bitcoiner. I'm not sure that's possible, even with the legendary feats of endurance one develops by becoming a bitcoiner. Perhaps you've estimated the curve incorrectly?

Sorry, maybe I should have made the chart clearer.

A mega hooker is a measurement of difficulty and not the number of hookers. An average hooker rates at a difficulty of around 10 mega hookers or 10MHks. But remember not all hookers rate the same difficulty. Your average bitconer, for example, is likely to seek out hookers of low difficulty due to the non-native environment.

I hope this clears things up.

Yes.
Yes it does clear things up.

I imagine a difficulty 1 hooker must be a fairly poor sort of hooker, like a 19th century dockside moll. Are they still extant? Perhaps the measurement is still kept for historical purposes.
