What does this mean for miners?
This would (probably) deter miners from using GPUs, ASICs, or maybe even full on CPU mining. To be honest if you mine this coin you might want to just set gen=1 in your config file and leave it at that. The more hashing power you pump into the coin won't necessarily give you more anomalies, yes you may solve more blocks but if block# % difficulty doesn't fall between 1 and 0.1 or is exactly 0, you are just burning out your mining rigs. On the other hand the more hashing power you put into the coin the more the coin is potentially worth.
