Title: LTC & BTC on one machine Post by: Cranky4u on October 19, 2012, 10:19:07 PM Can I run LTC or BTC on the one machine not simultaneously. I ask as my main miner has 2 FPGA attached but I want to dabble in an LTC set up to determine if I want to built an LTC only rig.
Will this corrupt eithers block chain or something strange? Title: Re: LTC & BTC on one machine Post by: canubis on October 20, 2012, 03:19:24 AM Yes you can run BTC and LTC on the same machine with no problems. You can even do it simultaneously. It will not corrupt the block chain or anything. :)

just make sure when your using cgminer your config looks something like this Quote cgminer-2.8.4-win32\cgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://ltc.r00t3d.com:9327 --scrypt being the important part!
