Thank you for the answers, I am concerning about two issues actually,

First, PoW diff is adjusting while mining PoS blocks,
        From the source codes which has been posted before,
        It can not be happen,
        Maybe the code has been updated, so, I do not have a major issues here
        Because of it is same as before,

Second, Diff looping,
        When small number of PoS blocks between PoW (0 ~ 5.....), Diff is increasing fast,
        and, it is going to 3~5.xxx
        after mining huge PoS blocks such 10, 20,.... some time, more than 40.....
        it is come back to 1~2.xxx
        Actually, it is the old problem, not a new issues,

my guess,

       when mining small number of PoS, it is not have time to adjust Diff to matched on 30 seconds,
       so, it has relatively lower Diff and block time.
       unfotunately, when calcuate Diff of PoW, this block time has applied to changed PoW,
       so, Diff of PoW is keep increasing

       if Diff of PoW is going up to some limit or Unluck situation,
       there are many of PoS is generating again, PoS can have enough time to adjust its Diff to match on the block time.
       when PoW has found, PoS has stabled, and PoW will have good time gap because of the effect from PoS has minimized,
       so, Diff of PoW is returning to the normal level,

       This situation is repeating again and again,


History
    
      Diff looping issues are started long time ago,

      When PoS has disabled, this problem is not happen, becasue of there is no PoS to affect on PoW block time (Diff calcualtion)

      At begining after resolved PoS issues (QT 1.3), this problem, because of there are large number of PoS has generated, and
      It help to stabilize the PoW also,

      Recently, within some time zone, there is not many coin has been mined, and so, lower number of PoS will be generated,
      and, this problem problem is happen again

      When generate large number of PoS is generating, this problem is gone,

      IF QT 1.4 has activated ? chance of PoS will be redueced from 12X to 3X,
      it menas 4X more chance to make this problem,
      I worry about that,


My personal opinion about this issues,

     Whatever blocktime is, Diff of PoW should be stable ~
     and, PoS should be stable also,

     Actually, this kind of issues are happen in PoW/PoS coins (and PoW also, if adjust diff each block)
     (1) in PoW, they are failed to estimated/calcuate Diff for next block (mostly, missing or weak interpolation)
     (2) in PoW/PoS, they are in the recursive calculation

     Whiling writing (22:09), the diff has increased to 9 ~
     5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 9, 9, n, n .....
     (while start PoS, Diff has increaed so much)
     (actually, it is why I have asked the reason why adjust Diff of PoW when PoS has started)

     (if much more miners are mining, and PoS timing is good distributed, this problem will be gone)
     (but, it become a big barrier to growing)

Anybody know the reason why Diff in block explorer and Diff from CGMINER/BFGMINER are not matched ?

Such as Diff shows as 5 (Network difficulty ha changed to 5),

but, last diff in the block explorer is 2.11111 .....

such as Block #126264, PoS blocks are mining ...

and, CGMINER/BFGMINER set as diff 5,
but, the latest diff is 2.111,

I think, whatever real Diff, CGMINER/BFGMINER should searching Hash base on Diff 5,

Actually, I have tried to match the diff between BlockExplor and CGMINER/BFGMINER

While mining PoS, the diff of PoW is keep adjusting ~
It is why CGMINER/BFGMINER shows some messages "...diff has changed to ......"

Just some what interesting ~

The diff shown in the block explorer as well as diff reported by the wallet in response to the getinfo rpc call is the difficulty of the shown/last block mined. The cgminer shows the difficulty of the block that is being mined currently. That diff is different for each block for grains as it has 1 block retargeting spacing.

I understand, I have added one photo, to explain more
you means, GRA are adjusting Diff for PoW even PoS is mining right ?
Anyway, just curious, it has been applied not long ago,
and, it has adjusted over 5~8 PoS blocks, and than, fixed the number,

Actually, I am tracking blocks ^^

(so boring because of I have just read the numbers over 3 hours ~ you may know why I have stared 3 hours ago)

Also, cgminer shows the difficulty as quotinent of current and maximum target, while for scrypt based coins you should divide this number with 2^16

Dear miners, please don't forget to update your wallets:

Version 1.4 is Released. Version 1.4 is a mandatory upgrade, so please upgrade as soon as possible to avoid a fork. Version 1.4 changes the 12X maximum PoW block time to 3X, this will decrease the PoW mining difficulty and make PoW mining more efficient, while preserving the PoS features. The switchover point is set at block 130000, which will be in about 5-7 days (we are at block 111815 now). Version 1.4 also has the latest checkpoints. Download links and source in github are updated.

We will continue to subsidize 5000 GRAs for each PoW block mined, until the switch block (Block 130000).

ADDED : most unlucky timming,
     forkpool has mined 7 blocks for 1 hours (34~38M)
     livchains pool has mined 1 blocks for 1 hours (6~7M)

Should CoinMarket.io add this coin?
In other words, would you bring us a reasonable amount of volume?

It should definitely be added!

Grain is very stable in its pricing, due to the PoS element of the coin. It would be a good addition to your new exchange. I strongly believe it's just a matter of time before it makes it onto Cryptsy. This coin has the smell of longevity about it.

Hi,

We have created a new Grain pool @ gra.cryptochomper.com for anyone who would like to sign up and start chomping....

We are planning to introduce other pools later on so any feedback welcome.

I think I just found a superblock by stake? What?  Cheesy

I love this coin. Love it.

i´m still waiting for my first PoS-Block... Sad

Most of mine have been tiny, but I think it's just because the 1.6 mill grain I bought just matured, and it was enough to get the superblock. It's only a little one though.

Guess this explains where the superblocks are going if people have a lot of grain.

this one??

126195   2014-01-22 20:22:25   PoS   2   1602192.930136   0.0   742118581.355329   5.47388   46.5628

Ah, wait. Yes, that's the one.  Smiley

Sweet dude... Wink
I told ya, you´ll get a nice PoS-reward out of your grains... Wink

Hehe.

It does make me wonder though..how many is Bosian finding?
