Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

People got tired of wasting their hashing power on scamcoins?

Litecoin could have easily been seen as a scamcoin when it came out and probably was by a few people. It's obviously solidified itself in the cryptocurrency world as an accepted coin though, so it'll only ever increase in popularity most likely - look at what happened to bitcoin? Fair few people hashing that out i hear.

Yeah I felt the irony as I typed "scamcoin", since if they really cared about that they would stick to merged-mining SHA256 coins. Tongue

Well I'm still mining away, free power ftw. Although uni halls have terrible ventilation; I pay in room temperature. 25.2C -.-
