[ANN] The First Litecoin PPS Pool (litecoinpool.org)

If  us.litecoinpool.org is dead, I guess I'm being DNS redirected then.

Hello, Is there a problem with the servers? My workers disconnected and the status is "dead"

As far as I can tell there has been no issue with any of the servers in the last 24 hours.

Hi there,

do you understand why I have these messages on my antminer L3+ kernel log?
Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Hey guys, hoping someone can give me some good news here.

So basically this is my situation:
My laptop motherboard died last week (rip) and on it I had a litecoin core wallet that I used as an intermediary to then move to cold storage; I never kept more than 1 LTC on it so I'm not terribly worried about the crypto itself. HOWEVER, I locked my litecoinpool account to that wallet's address so in order to unlock it I need access to the wallet to get the digital signature. While I could make a new account and redirect my miner to it, I'd just prefer not to have to login to 2 litecoinpool accounts every time I want to check out my progress, especially with one of them dead in the water. If I do have to remake a new account this would be my third time doing so, with the original account being impossible to access due to a lost authenticator.

I completely understand the security risks involved with unlocking a payment address, so I'm not expecting anyone to take me at my word. The one thing I could come up with to prove my ownership of the miner (and therefore the account which only ever had 1 miner) is my ability to modify the settings of the miner. I could overclock it or underclock it to a specific mark, or take it offline at a specific time potentially. I could also route the traffic to a new account with a pre-determined account name.

I appreciate any input!

tl;dr - can't access the old payment address anymore because laptop went kaput but I have complete access to the only miner the account has ever run. Hoping there's a way I could verify ownership given those factors.

1. If you lock your payout address, you should always keep backups of the wallet it's part of.
2. If it's just your laptop's motherboard that died, your hard disk might still be fine. You might still be able to extract it, connect it to another computer, and access your data.
3. If you still need assistance with your pool account, please send an email to support. Don't forget to include your username.

What would be the best difficulty setting for a USB Miner running about 5MH/s? Will variable difficulty work with this little miner?

My two Gridseed Orbs, putting out a grand total of 722KH/s are running at a difficulty of 256 set by the pool and getting in 3 to 5 shares per second. Your 5MH/s will fit right in.

And that's using the variable difficulty set by the pool?

[Searing]

Was looking at my hash rate (coming) 11,000mh on the pool (seems like a lot, but not a lot maybe)

 ...perhaps another tweak to the calculator to add GH and TH for giggles as toggle options...there?

(yes, it is that high, now hash rate...we can talk in such terms) sigh....

Ok, I have removed the "=D" statement to try the variable difficulty and see how it works. Is there a way to tell what difficulty the pool has set my little USB miner at in bfgminer?

The last two numbers on your Accepted lines are the diff of the share submitted and the diff setting you're working on.

I see you put in the tab for GH ..thanks...just figured it was 'cute'

Hard Rumor: currently is that Bitmain will be releasing for sale a 1.5gh unit @ 1,300 watts. So that means, until this 'supposed' pre-order

at the end of summer to us 'normal folk,' they will drive LTC difficulty up by maybe a much as 20%? (more?) over the Sumer and then IF pre-order sales

at the end of Summer as the rumor states...that would be Oct 2018 in our hands. A current L3+ (3 of them) can play in this 'sandbox' at 2,400 watts

(now) maybe even into fall...IF the price of LTC can keep ahead of LTC difficulty train...

anyway, Pooler...you may have to 'expand' your mining stuff for this particular dump of equipment and difficulty rise...

(unsure how your capacity for the pool works on this kinda thing...for all I know you are golden and it has no effect on you having to upgrade/equip stuff)

Anyway, been hearing this Hard Rumor for awhile now...but no firm proof...just an aside

thanks for the GH tab addition on the www.litecoinpool.org/calc.....them days are a coming...soon it seems!

OK new to the Litecoin world as I am diversifying from BTC

I am currently running 8 S9's mining BTC

Just bought 2 of the Antminer L3+....

Is it the same setup bitmain software (root/root) that the S9's use? Just point at the pools US and US2 pools?

I already have my account and wallet all setup with Litecoin....

Any other tricks or things I should know...

Mine on!

I've not run any of the S9's but the Bitmain software is the same between my RT1-LTC, D9's & L3+'s so safe bet would be yes...

On a side note, where's a good place to point D9's for BTC?

Good Luck, and welcome to the Lite Side!

Thanks!

I have been mining on Kano pool and had good luck and great support in the Forum.   The use PPLNS and use 5ND for ramping up and down.

In short, miner goes down, pool hits a block, you still share in the rewards..

I am very happy there and rewards are the best of anywhere I have found...  I've tried Antpool and Slujshpool then found Kano pool and never went anywhere else...

They are not the biggest, but in my opinion they are the best....

PM me if you have any questions..

Anyone wanna take a guess at what how much of a litecoin a 500 mh/s Antminer L3+ will be mining in 6 months? I bet it's only going to be .2 of a litecoin.  If the network hash rate keeps on going up at its current rate without any sort of price movement, then this coin is going to be put in to its grave.  You would think that a huge increase in mining would at some point equate to an increase in purchasing demand as well, but that hasn't even come close to happening.  Maybe it will once new people decide that the best way to get litecoin is to purchase instead of mine.

One theory on the whole market is that purchasing with a credit/debit card was the easy and quick way to get in to the market, and now that all the major card company's have almost banned purchasing with them the lack of new entrants in to the market has dried up and there is no new money coming in. Or at least it takes a lot longer for that new money to enter the market since impulse buying of crypto's is a lot harder since it either needs to be bank or wire transfer.

Anyways hope we get some price movement!

Gone are the days where you will make a lot mining unless you have 100+ machines. Until Bitmain comes out with a better miner, the L3+ is the best for mining scrypt coin. The difficulty keeps getting higher mining Litecoin. So, you will be lucky to make $2.00 /day if you mine it directly. You would be better off mining a different scrypt coin directly like Verge or Gamecredits. Or, sell your hashing power to nicehash and you will make $5 to $7 /day.

Either the value of Litecoin needs to increase or we get a faster miner to make mining Litecoin worth it.

On average litecoinpool find the most blocks I have ever seen. Just wish the miners could get some of that rewards. Not the whole 25 LTC but maybe 50%. Would certainly help the little guys trying to mine. I understand the pool needs money to operate but 5 grand , Just on may 10 2018, Litecoinpool found 14 blocks so that 56,000 US dollars.

Hello! I recently joined to litecoinpool.org and I have some issues, but when I click “Forum” it sends mi to bitcointalk.org, and I am beginner about virtual currencies. I need help with: a problem configuring mining_proxy or a problem is access connection to litecoinpool?
