Block times also went down by more than 50% from >30 seconds to <14 seconds. Before the Byzantium fork ~10 ETH/min were issued, now ~12+ ETH/min.

I would not be surprised to see a hybrid POW/POS implementation sooner than people think. In the last Ethereum developer meeting it was discussed preparation for the POW/POS implementation is at a point where it could be released in the next hard fork, Constantinople, which should be within 6-9 months.

What happened? Is simply a consequence of the fork or is there something I am missing?

As block segregation is gonna happen on ethereum this time along with the hard fork. We have to wait till the upcoming fork happening day. After that bitcoin and ethreum cost will move again to flight. Whenever the hard fork or halving implementing, that time dump is usually happen.

Don't bother about the difficulty chart bump in the graph. If you fear sell it out. You will surely loose your profit and amount you saved or bought for it.

I understood that issue rate was going to be lowered, but actually seems a bit better for miners???

profit wise, nothing changed.

Its obviously the effect of the fork, we will still enjoy ETH pow for a year at least.
