Hey

BTC is all good but LTC has me somewhat stumped

Any Mac OS LTC miners who can help point me in the right direction?

I'm trying to run Electrum but have so far hit issues connecting, just hangs - network issue? Litecoin Wallet seems to be ok and is syncing

What have folk found to be the best miner to use on OS X?

Any help gratefully received guys

Thx

I'm on windows. Is there a windows premined blockchain for LTC? Can Electrum be run on windows for ltc?

I've used cgminer and minerd on OS X, and they both work fine.

However, I haven't done much mining on my mac and probably wouldn't recommend it. The iMac is quite thin, so it only fits a mobile graphics card and the computer can heat up a lot. I didn't think it was worth the risks for such a small gain.
