Umm does the diff retarget seem a bit long to anyone else? 24 hours worth of blocks is a bit insane if you ask me.
Right now the diff is under 1 and the hash at 170k for the network. Isn't that going to leave the dedicated miners in a lurch for a couple days if alot swap off after retarget?
I would think 60 blocks would be way more realistic.
Yes, you right, this is reasonable. We're thinking to modify retarget time, but not right now. It's not a good time for a hard fork :-)
