KnCMiner Titan to Deliver 400MH/s, Tape-Out Imminent

http://www.coindesk.com/kncminer-titan-deliver-400-tape-out/

Do we still think the flood of Litecoin miners is imminent?

“Compared to the standard currencies such as the US dollar, the euro, the Japanese yen and others, bitcoin shines due to an unprecedented data availability. It is completely unrealistic to know the total amount of the US dollars in the worldwide economy on a daily basis. However, bitcoin provides such information on daily basis, publicly and freely.”

so, they find that only now??? "ppl" wake-up

People are flooding to X11 anyway, whether that increases or remaining scrypt miners give up altogether, either way nobody but existing bagholders and new ASIC owners are going to care about LTC any more.

And we know where the money leaving LTC is likely to go - BTC and DRK.

And in the same page we have other article :
"Study: Silk Road May Have Reduced Drug Violence
A new study argues that online drug bazaars, such as Silk Road, can actually reduce drug-related violence."

I read it and saw the post on reddit. it wasn't a study, it was an opinion.

Yes Hiro is a great dev and has been a true asset to Darkcoin! I'll be including some more info about what he's helping with in the next development update

Hiro has his own coin, and I'm wondering if we can think of a "purpose" for Hirocoin, perhaps something that is complementary to darkcoin?  I mean, he has been helping us, and it seems like there are people who were devoted to his coin as well, and maybe we can help them out somehow?  I really like that there will be a large quantity of Hiroccoins issued, it makes them more accessable, especially for smaller purchases.  Can anyone think of a good reason to have a side kick coin that somehow cooperates and complements eachother?  Moreso than silver to BTC's gold... something real and relevant?

I hope something can be organised for the talented devs that are helping out darkcoin. Direct remuneration would also be good. They are afterall working to improve darkcoin's intellectual property assets. If we don't do something for them now then in future they may not be able assist as much due to financial constraints.

Helping with testnet forking issues?

All forking issues have been resolved! Next I'm going to start working on stabilizing the masternode payments / ghost masternodes, then I'll set a date for the fork (prob about two weeks).

** Please update your client to 10.9.2 or 9.5.2 **
** If you updated and are running either of those versions from a few hours ago, please update as well, the keys were changed in the code **

(If you're not helping with testnet, you can ignore this. I'll be having everyone else update soon)

Quick question about the forking issues being resolved. If Evan or maybe someone else who understands auto-checkpointing as it was implemented in DarkCoin (Hiro? ) could answer I would be really grateful.

As I understand it, and I mean absolutely no offence, the underlying issue of the voting system causing forks remains unfixed and now autocheckpointing will be used to keep all clients on the correct chain. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Assuming I am not... then what is the plan if the "checkpoint" node (this a central node according to the code that was posted by chapelin) has some downtime or even worse is attacked?  If the node is down then it won't send checkpoints. If it has been compromised then the individual clients will not sign. That seems ok at a glance, but wouldn't the blockchain just fork once again during the time that no checkpoints are being included in the blocks?

Has this been considered and DarkCoin is using a modified version of autocheckpointing? Or am I misunderstanding something fundamental related to how autocheckpointing actually works?
Thanks.

Looks like Evan has fixed the masternode voting issues and half the ghost MN issue.

Checkpointing is insurance. Attacking CP server doesn't cause forks. See posts on forking solution. It will be virtually impossible to find the CP server to attack.

Where are these posts?  I didn't see anything posted about the details of solving the fork issue.
