I've noticed that Bitcoin's difficulty level is going up rapidly, and is expected to be well over 1Bil before I ever get my shipment of Neptune. Therefore, I wanted to know if anyone has successfully mined any altcoins using SHA256 with previous KnC products. I asked KnC and they said it'd be best to ask some folks here. Any answers would be great Smiley

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

Mine @ pools that pay Tx fees & don't mine empty blocks :: kanopool :: ckpool ::
Should bitmain create LPM for all models?

Well I have access to PPC, TRC, ZET and FRC

I just tested TRC and that works as well.

So I imagine if it works with one it works with others.

I've used TheSeven's PPC pool quite a few times with no problems.

Its common for the devs of alt coins to mine many coins before releasing the coin to everyone else.

from litecoin that had only 2 blocks premined (one more than needed)
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Litecoin#.28Slight.29_Premining

to stable coin with over 1million coins premined
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=234720.0
