confirmed I was just awarded 420 on my pool with confirmations

FYI looks like it starts awarding 420 value blocks at 3000 not at 4200 like in the OP:

int64 static GetBlockValue(int nHeight, int64 nFees)
{
   int64 nSubsidy = 420 * COIN;

        if(nHeight == 2)
    {
        nSubsidy = 420000 * COIN;
    }
       else if(nHeight < 3000)
    {
        nSubsidy = 1 * COIN;
    }
}

I have set up a P2Pool :

Feel free to give my p2pool a try we're finding blocks every 9 minutes on average http://p2pool-dgc.com:9500

Good reason to use Cryptsy I trust Vern more than some random devs in China

Memo to anyone with a Cryptsy account that Baritus has offered an exchange rate substantially above market.  Get over there and get some coins !

Obviously the correct way to do a fair start is have difficulty start at .25 and have the coin creator do the work, *one block*,  to mine the genesis block

Asking miners to "donate" their hash to mine 6,000 blocks at high difficulty was a bit ridiculous particularly with a 650k coin premine

I have listed an 1884 CC Morgan Silver Dollar in Brilliant Uncirculated condition :

I'm a reputation seller on here so buy with confidence.  Coin is guaranteed genuine I am a lifelong collector with great experience grading these.

Estimate condition at Mint State 62/63 to be conservative.  Could grade higher

I'm letting this one go a bit cheap (!)

Shutting down the pool for now no point to keep it up and running for days when rewards, and miner interest, are 0

Actually all these new currencies are hyperinflationary in the early going.  They:

1.  Are not backed by anything
2.  Have no intrinsic value
3.  Go from 0 to 200,000 or 0 to 2,000,000 in days or hours
4.  Increase in quantity by 25% - 10,000% or more daily, for weeks, depending on mining rate

And "investors", who cut in line to buy these on day one, are always shocked when they inevitably fall in value.

Those same "investors" mock miners who sell immediately.

NEWS FLASH, dummy speculators, the miners are the smart ones.  You are the bag holder.  Guaranteed no exceptions

Opened up my pool again to throw some hash at WDC while it is wildly profitable.  Feel free to join the fun!

LTC has been gaining ground on BTC since its inception and has key technical advantages

I would say LTC is (1) entrenched and (2) gaining ground.  I don't think BTC advocates have much, yet, to worry about but they should keep on eye on LTC.

LTC is not silver to Bitcoin's Gold but, rather, is Android to Bitcoin's iOS.  We'll see how it plays out.

What happened? 51% attack?!  And it was working so well.

Once we get this resolved, let's open up a marketplace

There is a chance the coin will die before the first reward block is mined

If so, this will go down as one of the more spectacular failures.  The dev should get a botnet on it now if he wants this to succeed !

Looks like 26 hours or so at current difficulty and hash rate don't hold your breath

I'm just happy to be getting some fees from our mined blocks.  Proves the pool is working well

Same thing
