all hash rate for now is about 30 MH/sec - 20.5 nanopool, 2 fairhash, 1 spacepools, 1 hashvault and lees others...
but difficulty is 19000137766 - its equals 158.33 MH/sec
why?
because of difficulty adjust 80 blocks and some cheater uses this.
he is mining with approximately 140 MH/sec (some hidden/private pool or solo) about 2-3 hours on low difficulty 80-100 blocks,
then difficulty adjust and he stops...
after that nanopool (20.5 MH/sec) is finding blocks with high diff not 2 min/block, but 15-20 min... for others its hours..

may be difficulty adjust must be less then 80 blocks? 5 - 10 for example?

may be its 250-300 blocks
look at blocks 308036 - 308300
a lot of cases when in 1 minute someone found 3-4 blocks (308091 - 308094)! its about 15-20 sec / block, but it must be 2 min / block

and now this ninja miner with 100 MH/sec doing that again and again... he mine with low diff almost all blocks and then other miners (nano, fairhash, etc) sucks with high diff...

and again, and again, and again...

here is real hashrate of etn:
http://joxi.ru/Y2L55Dyi97gL8A
its 26MH/s!!!

BUT!
with the current difficulty adjustment nicehasher wait for low difficulty, and then he mine block with average time 10 sec (ever 5) instead 2 minutes until you increase the difficulty to its level.
this nicehasher gets super profits (average X10 from normal reward) and immediately dumps etn!
after that he stops mining and fair miners remain the high difficulty, because of this block found with average time 20-30 min
you can check it here (look at the age):

devs should reduce the difficulty adjustment time to a minimum (possibly 2-5 blocks)!
then the blocks time will be stable 2 min as they should,
nicehasher will not have super profits and therefore it will not make sense to attack the network ETN again and again,
this terrible dump will stop finally.

many of other smaller coins already made this setting. for example: intense, iridium (this coin has only 1 dev!), and others.
since the date of the fork has been a month, the situation is repeated again and again. do the developers not see it or it is so difficult for them to make such difficulty adjustment?

contraband, please answer!

Not sure if they will be doing anymore adjustments soon.

I do understand the concept, and that may be something that is looked into down the road.

What will help ETN the most is demand.

thank you for answer!
and it would be great if the developers read about it!
