I've noticed PoS difficulty has been going fairly high lately. PoS generation rate is constant (1440 per day) regardless of how many people are using the coin, so with more people competing it's getting harder to mint one of those PoS blocks. Would there be any interest in a PoS pool?
I've definitely noticed it too. You used to be able to stake regularly with as little at 10 million, now 25 million+ chunks seem to be doing well. Sometimes the PoS difficulty goes even higher, into the mid 100's.
Peepcoin's price hasn't been keeping up with how hard it is to get your hands on a large amount. I'm sure this will change in the near future.
For those who aren't experienced, when difficulty is trending upward the price tends to follow. At this level ~450 million Peepcoin generate roughly 1 million a day (likely less). Around 2,000 DOGE, about 180,000 satoshi per day.
For a similar investment in a comparable coin, about 9000$ worth of Bitbean, you'd be earning 1 sprout every 2 days if you're lucky. Or about 60,000 satoshi equivalent per day.
I'd say the price is about half of what the difficulty entails it should be. Obviously liquidity will make price discovery come into play.
