AFAIK no one's done it yet. 

There block explorer's here if you want to make a script using it: http://explorer.litecoin.net/
And the API is also detailed.

Or you can use ABE yourself and do so.

That's true.  I mostly created this as a troll thread but then it turned into a big debate.

I am, and so are the estimated 2200+ GPUs mining on the network.  I've been mining since release over a year ago and been making nothing but money.

I predicted the difficulty coaster attack to litecoin as well, but oddly it doesn't seem to affect the currency as I had thought it might.  The result seems to be that whoever is mining on the low difficulty periods is dumping quickly, but whoever is mining on the high difficulty periods is hardly dumping at all, so the price has been maintained stable.

The hash rate of the network is also slowly going up on the high difficulty periods.

Yes, the BTC community is full of incredibly reliable and honest people like Pirate@40, Zhou Tong, Butterfly Labs, and Taaki to name a few...  And services such as Silk Road.

Dump all the ppc

It's possible someone else figured out the attack too and has bought that many coins to abuse the proof of stake implementation and generate another bajillion coins.

Figured this would happen eventually.

How much for your finest chubby ginger kiwi lasses?  Shipping is to Canada.

Litecoin is being difficulty coastered right now by a large BTC miner who mines and dumps every other difficulty period.  It's inevitable with a 3.5 day retarget.

In other news it looks like I was right, we're looking at a -13% difficulty decrease right now which will put us below 3M.

Isn't poolserverj the backend for ltcmine.ru?  Unless I'm mistaken

Stratum mining allows LTC pools to achieve less than 0.5% stales.  The only current pool to implement it is ltcmine.ru.  If you check out their list of miners there, you will see that many are mining with quantities of stales as low as 0.2%.

Latest version of cgminer to support it is 2.10.2
The reaper version that supports stratum is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=92522.msg1372243#msg1372243

I think as a community we work on getting stratum support for more pools, so that you guys pool mining all get more litecoin.  Currently, PoolServerJ supports both litecoin mining and stratum.

thanks for the fix!!

Yup, don't forget to delete all the old binaries for cgminer (.bin files)

I'm using cgminer 2.8.7 and getting 500 kh/s now on my 6970, thread-concurrency 8000

The quadcore A9s only gets between 2-4kh/s if I remember right, the NEON miner is energy efficient (~2x more than video cards) because it uses the on-die L2 cache but the chips are so expensive that it's pointless.

Also you might hit that efficiency if you way undervolt GPUs too, I haven't really tried but I wouldn't be surprised.

installing 12.11 beta drivers seems to have fixed it

tbh i'd rather fix the problem, since i doubt i'll be the last person to encounter it.

Amazing, even after 12.10 uninstall and driver sweeper and 12.6 reinstall, everything is still fucked up.  I'll keep messing with it I guess.

maybe $0.03 USD

Compare to 250 Gbit/s bus from a video and you have a recipe for some slow litecoin mining

I'm having this problem too now after updating my driver to 12.10.  Try 12.6 and 12.8 catalyst drivers.

edit: going back to 12.8 doesn't fix it for me... something is really broken.

The first stratum pool is available for scrypt:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=92522.0

Can you please add support?  I don't know if that just involves removing the return false from detect_stratum in cgminer.c

Also, did you do anything weird to the kernel?  I lost 35% of my hash rate going to 2.10.1 from 2.8.7 with a 6970

edit: rolled back to 2.8.7 and I'm still getting weird rates -- I guess something is wrong with the 12.10 display driver or something
