Title: Litecoin Questions...
Post by: Bleroy on April 04, 2013, 03:14:05 PM
I have been into the digital currency thing since December. While I have been mining and trading bitcoins, I have recently discovered Litecoins. I made a litecoin wallet, joined a pool, but find it near impossible to figure out the mining side of it. It's very hard to find any miners (or for me at least). Any easy way to get a miner? Thanks in advance!  :)

What po1992one said.

Or, if you want to stick with CPU mining on Windows, use ScryptMiner. I'd post a link (litecoinpool.org help page has one) but the site is busy now.
