Title: 50 LTC for no reason?
Post by: yesbutnobutyes on March 11, 2013, 07:53:13 PM
I started mining LTC last night with the wallet appliation and received 50 LTC this morning, but the date that it says I mined it is March 19, 2013... 8 days from now

Why?

interesting i assume you where solomining? if so you got very lucky and managed to get a very very short block and got the whole reward to yourself as for the date im not really sure might just be a glitch

Why?

Is it possible to exchange LTC?

I'm just saying if I can make 50 LTC(x.41 cents = $20USD) by solo mining then that is what i will be doing..

Today I made 10 cents for 3 hours work by joining ltcminingpool.org

You just did make that much, but the likelihood of making that much again is slim.  It could take months or a year before you see another 50 LTC.

Also, wow, LTC is $0.41 now?  That's nuts... glad I've been trading the NMC I mine for them.

Keep in mind that probabilities win out in the end.  If you make ~10 cents per 3 hours at current difficulty/price, it will take you approximately 25 days on average to solo-mine another block.  If the difficulty goes up, it will take even longer.  Given infinite time, you should earn the same amount mining solo as you would mining through a pool.

How do you know when your solo mining is working in Litecoin anyway?

I was trying to figure that one out myself, when I start mining in the litecoin client the pickaxes at the bottom just say "Mining at 0 hashes per second" I'm not even sure if it's doing anything. GPU pool mining with the GUI miner seems to be working fine for me though.
