Been mining Fastcoin on a P2Pool for an hour now and still no payout, how come?
You need to run p2pool for at least 24 hours to build up shares. It doesn't work like normal pools.

If the recent code changes are worrying people so much, allow me to remind them they are free to fork the project and undo the changes. They can then release their version and the community can vote by using it or not. Can't get much more democratic than that.

Let me know when it gets released please.

Litecoin differences to Bitcoin:
Scrypt insted of SHA256
Average block time 2.5 minutes

Somebody enlighten me how this solves any of Bitcoin's fundamental problems with micro-transactions or blockchain bloat. As a matter of fact Litecoin has all the same basic design problems Bitcoin has, they are just not as visible yet because the total transaction volume is much lower. Whatever the solution for micro-transactions might be, Litecoin isn't it.

It doesn't.  As you point out the exact same constraints exist.  While LTC has 4x as many blocks it will incur orphans at an accelerated rate due to propagation delays for very large blocks.

A 100MB block every 10 minutes or 25MB block every 2.5 minutes the same constraint exists.   If/when LTC becomes popular it will be forced to implement "dust threshold" as well or the UXTO size will explode making the burden on full nodes even more punitive.

Those saying "LTC is designed for microtransactions" just have a bridge to sell.  It would be possible to design a cryptocurrency for micro transactionis but it isn't LTC.

+1

The only problem LTC solves is what miners can do with their now Bitcoin obsolete GPUs. While I hold and currently mine LTC, the long-term viability is a concern.

why block a 1 satoshi transation when it could be used to by a can of soda by the end of the year  Smiley

Because at the present time, Bitcoin network and the Litecoin network cannot cope with it. Also 1 satoshi is expensive for the miner to put in a block.



well its still going to cause bitcoin to rise more slowly than it would otherwise would, by making it worth less and less divisible, its just an over reaction i rekon the next price upswing is coming sooner rather than later everyone is wanting in on it and its like a steam train coming down the mountain
I'm happy with a nice gently price rise. Slow and steady.  Smiley

Yes powered rises will stop that. You can make your own.

Why is the Litecoin price higher then the Namecoin price ?
They are 4 times more Litecoins than Namecoins and Namecoin brings more innovation.
Shouldn't be Namecoin at least 4 times more expensive than Litecoin ?
Do you think the Namecoin prices will rise ?
Namecoin never really caught on much. Price won't rise until demand rises.

Yes please.
The danger here is you won't find out which gender she is until it's too late....
2875  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Boycott 0.8.2 on: June 12, 2013, 08:26:40 AM
Yes LTC will solve much of the problems that BTC has. 0.9 LTC should be significantly different from BTC and should be able to deal with micro transactions much better than BTC.
0.9? Jesus, still waiting for 0.7!

Aha, my hobbyhorse!

Why do you want to buy? Magic money tree? Ain't no such thing.

Bitcoin laundering? A bit advanced for newbieland. look it up later  Smiley

So you want to know if its worth it? Look away now for the faint of heart!

Go here http://www.coinish.com/calc fill in your hash rate, purchase cost, plenty of other things to play with.

Select Expert Mode and check your "Break even considering reduction"

Still want to buy? Great, plenty of sellers on ebay or our Custom Hardware threads.

Enjoy suckers  Lips sealed

Ahh, but you assume people will only want to mine Bitcoin with ASICS. Ppcoin is sha256 as well.

mtnox.com now reporting in Chrome Browser as likely phishing site.
Was this a typo and you meant mtgox.com?
No I meant mtnox.com which is the phishing site. Mtgox.com is the genuine one.
