As good a reason as any I guess...I suppose that IF you were running your A2 110mh or below scrypt miners for LTC and converting it to BTC on say
a multipool .halving today for btc and .this would be a good time to just pull the plug..summer heat and all....but that logic fails on so many levels...but only thing I can see
besides your comment/fire/earthquake/alien abduction of miners/etc

And wow there it goes right back to a peak rate again. I never understand why people don't accept the fluctuations in apparent Hashrate. It fluctuates all the time folks.

Litecoin is pumped today it seems.
Fluctuations are common things in trading
