Any thoughts on filtering out difficulties <1? Typically all of these are difficulties for MNs and can really skew the averaging.
Can you give me and example? I already filter difficulties <=0
DNR. There were a few I'll start paying more attention to the ones Ive seen issues with but this is the first that comes to mind.
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dnr/Edit:
https://chainz.cryptoid.info/lux/ lux also has a smiilar issue. It appears cryptoid states its "Proof of Stake" is that readable by the API and possibly just filter out the PoS difficulties?

This is from the chainz.cryptoid.info API.. are you saying those low diffs are actually PoS diffs from recently staked blocks?
if you go there, you will see there is a column to the right that says that its "Proof of Stake" with a difficulty of 4
It appears we may be able to utlized the "PoS": true portion to determine if the coin at least has PoS and if so, perhaps create a filter for the difficulties that drop substantially.
