He would be able to elaborate more on how difficulty is set than myself. I wouldn't directly correlate difficulty with interest. You can read more about the difficulty adjustment algorithm here: And the main reason you don't see a big ramp up in difficulty over time like with Bitcoin is that Zcash had plenty of press and several versions on the testnet for miners to prepare for launch.
