Hey there,

I just got my gridseed working, ive only been able to mine ltc at the moment.... Im using cgminer and whenever I try to start mining btc, literally everything gets rejected (low difficulty) .... I have tried changing the difficulty in my pool, changing the freq, I'm definitely a noob so any recommendations on what to do to try and get this thing going would be awesome.

Also any info as to what rejection due to "low difficulty" would be great!

This is my .bat, if you need any other info just let me know

start /D "c:\cgminer-3-7-2-gridseed-windows-alt\cgminer-3-7-2-gridseed-windows-alt" cgminer.exe -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u BukuBTC_buku2 -p Abc1828 --gridseed-options=baud=115200,freq=950,chips=5 --hotplug 30

Thanks!

You can't use gridseed to mine btc.

LTC is scrypt based, btc is sha-256.

Indeed, gridseed is a dual miner (can mine both sha256 and scrypt), though no one is using it to mine bitcoin as it is not profitable...

Lite coin is a good choice, stick with it. Dont mine other new alt coins = gamble.

At least now you have a chance of getting some bitcoin as well since those litecoin trade in a better value.

Have you tried multipool? for mining alt coins.
