Merged mining for Viacoin is not only providing a secure hashrate, but in my view it also brings sustainability and a fair market price.

Mining, or merged mining, does not make sense at the moment.
When, mining leads to unprofitable rewards for miners, it is hard to convince them to keep mining.

It's not unprofitable. You clearly don't understand it yet.
They can mine any Scrypt coin and Viacoin for free as bonus.

Lots of mining pools do this. Like F2pool and litecoinpool.org
Both mine litecoin and Viacoin at the same time. They won't stop because they get the Viacoins as bonus. Hence the high hashrate. The hashrate doesn't lie. The hashrate of Viacoin up/down moves is similar to that from litecoin. When litecoin hashrate is high, so is that from Viacoin.

Are you planning to keep it always PoW or there's a plan to use another consesus ? I understand that you're pretty happy with PoW right now, but maybe in the future....

Not planning to switch to something other than Auxiliary PoW. I know a lot of coins jump quick to the POS or DPos hypetrain for that "pump". However Viacoin keeps living on. That's why it has been staying alive since 2014.
