I am hoping to identify a fair and reasonable starting difficulty on a scrypt coin.

Previously I've suggested

based on a network hashrate of: 50MH/s diff 1.4, 100mh/s: diff 2.8
working: (1.4*2^32/120 = 50,107,951) and (2.8*2^32/120 = 100,215,903)
reasoning: the first 720 blocks should require a reasonable amount of expenditure to generate before the diff changes.

Can anybody share any insight they may have as to an estimated hashrate for the first day of a new, decent, scrypt coin. I'd rather it was higher than lower.

Thank you for any discussion.
