caant wait for dev to make a statement about this  Viva la revolution |
If bitcoinmining riggs could buy miningriggs with bitcoin by themselves wouldnt that be asexual reproduction ? So wouldnt that make BTC a lifeform ?

wtf? lol.. thats actually possible?? hard fork it when youre not the dev?  Yes it is. Hi, is there any Litecoin offical statement from litecoin develop group? We don't need the Litecoin developers. We need the majority to support this to make this hardfork work. The developer group doesn't have any power when the majority supports a hardfork. |

Do you think BTC or other coins should have a hardfork to save themself？

Well that you certainly won't get so why waste your time? You are not the majority, neither are we. That's why we will be working on getting the support of the majority. The blockcount of 564,480 may be too early, if needed we can postpone this to a higher blockcount. |

Well, this is interesting news, if it can be done. I do think that the time is right, while scrypt asic is not yet widely spread.
Best of luck.

We, a team of Litecoin supporters and developers, are not satisfied with the current development of LTC. That's why we are working on a hardfork for Litecoin to make it ASIC resistant. This way we like to keep it decentralized, so no large ASIC manufacturers like KnCMiner, Gridseed or Alpha-T can takeover the network when Scrypt ASICS come widely available. To lower the footprint of LTC and retain GPU mineability, the algorithm of our choice is X11. We would like to hear from the Litecoin community if other changes, like to the difficulty algorithm, are preferred too. Please keep this a nice and open discussion, this topic will not be moderated as we think everyone has the right to free speech. More to follow, so stay tuned. The LTC X11 team. http://picadump.com/ltc_x11/hardfork.pngLitecoin [LTC] hardfork to X11 hardfork at block: ~564,480 http://picadump.com/ltc_x11/downloads.pnggithub: coming soon Litecoin-QT for Windows: coming soon Litecoin-QT for GNU/Linux: coming soon Litecoin-QT for Mac OS X: coming soon Litecoin for Android: coming soon Litecoin for BlackBerry: coming soon http://picadump.com/ltc_x11/litecoin_x11.pngDamned good news for LTC! |

Ah, what a delicious provocation ! I love it.
Good luck getting enough people to accept the fork though. Do you really think all those people with ASICS or ordered ASICS are going to brick their investment ?
Instead, why not switch to an existing X11 coin ?

Actually we hope to get the official developers for LTC to work together with us. But we don't expect them to do so. We won't need them to do this though. We need you. |
