How's this for small:



It runs much cooler than the old 65nm BFL hardware I'm going to finally retire after the cold winter months are done with, and without all the hardware errors I had on the BFL --- this is stable at 107-119 GH/s mostly, even when I'm playing flappy bird...

Most of what I've been doing has been OS / rom hacks and stuff like removing the bamc it came with and clearing out to make room for more games and other non-mining stuff.

The synchronicity with this Ice Bucket Challenge thing is staggering, from a metaphysical perspective it's almost as if the whole world is acknowledging him and celebrating his pass-over with a ritual.

?

Funny how there has been several of the happenings already and no exclamations about "delusions". From what I've read, people have been happy and thankful for the Supernode events.

Listen buddy, I will only write this one post, but you are somehow sick. Stalking and hating systematically isn't normal procedure for people. You might not feel like it, but it would be most beneficiary for you to search for professional help. It might change things alot for you. A simple pill a day might be enough. Srsly.

Now let Risto please do his thang and you can do yours.

For a PoW coin that's experiencing heavy diff increases it really is going to be all about the mining for the next few months.

I don't really understand what you are trying to say here, do you understand what you are saying?

LTC is dying tech, it's on it's last legs, it's the opposite of a currency like DRK that's innovating and making history.  Why would you come to the DRK thread to show off an old shoe and try to remind everyone the old shoe is great because it was here first?

Go away, pathetic attentionwhore troll. I'm not wasting a single more word on you.

Ah so c) bored and looking for people to talk to.

And you've cashed out all your bitcoin. So you are now a bitcointalk lurker effectively?

Why not go do something productive? Or are you trying to sell on your choices in case you've made a mistake?  

...but now the end result is plenty of investors who preordered ASICs (as well as ASICs on network) driving up difficulty so the GPU miners aren't profitable (or barely). Because such an outlay of money is needed for the ASICs, miners are less likely to hold their coins when they need to worry about ROI which at this point is nearly impossible. As more ASICs continue to be delivered, it's only going to get worse. Nearly 29k of LTC coming available everyday that will need to be bought up to support the price it's currently at. That's a lot of BTC to continue throwing into an already anemic altcoin market.

What do you want?

a) Cheaper darkcoin

b) people to buy litecoin (triple yawn)

c) someone to talk to

d) altcoins to go away so every one can buy bitcoin

e) ?

I'll agree that the orderbook is pretty thin, but that's both ways as well. DRK is alive because there is still a void that needs to be filled (privacy-centric coin). What coin comes out on top to fill that niche is to be seen. While there are other alternatives out there (CN coins), DRK is building a network that will hopefully offer even more utility to the end user than just anonymous transactions. You can see the climb in masternode count (already over 800 again) so there are obviously believers in the future potential here.

Litecoin will continue to linger but at its core, there isn't anything that LTC offers over just buying and using BTC. Sure, LTC has the most merchant adoption out of all the altcoins but that's still not enough to keep it from losing a substantial portion of its market cap. LTC will continue to feel inflationary pressure from miners selling, at least until the block halve and even then, who knows at that point. Having 4x the max coin supply of BTC and 1/4 the block time isn't enough differentiation to justify using LTC over BTC. Scrypt was a big draw to LTC but now that there are ASICs, the advantage is now moot.

They are complete idiots why bump their thread?

By replying to those idiots you increase their visibility.
Although anyone who listens to that bunch shouldn't really be investing in anything.

OK so you are an LTC fan and you've come here to stir the pot, were you upset that we spoke about LTC dying about a month ago?  Are you putting your sharp memory to good use now?

Well you can remember this then.  LTC is currently being held up by Scrypt ASIC manufacturers who are facing the prospect of having warehouses full of expensive paperweights.  As soon as they move those units LTC is going to die a very sudden death.

Nobody want's a 2nd round of centralisation, this is not what Crypto is about.  Spiritually, LTC is already dead.  It's a nothing coin that's being artificially kept alive by companies looking to dump as soon as their warehouses are empty.

 

The exact same could be said of litecoin supporters..

Agreed, so I suggest you bring Darkcoin's problems here, to be discussed and solved (we intend to help it here), and bring other currencies' benefits elsewhere. It would be nice of you.

Not at all. To stay "on topic" (here) means to discuss Darkcoin subjects, I guess... Anything else should be discussed elsewhere in order to keep things organised

Please, Mr. hero member, try to keep on topic, and talk about darkcoin: I don't think it is anyone's business what other currencies anyone else eventually has or had.
