Awesome work guys! Ive got a version of frk with neoscrypt in testnet, I love the algo. Very swift.

500 Blocks left, I hope everything will go smoothly. 
500 left? The hardfork block is 432,000, not 430,000...

How many hours before fork? 14-16 hours, more or less? 
No we had a huge spike in difficulty on FTC as a lot of ASICs tried to squeeze their last few FTC out before the change, its probably still about 48 hours away, give or take a few hours.
I've created a twitter bot that is counting it down, which tweets once a day, but will tweak at about 12 hours, then 6 hours, 3 hour, 1 hour and 10 mins and the last 5 blocks
So if you want to know exactly when the fork is happening follow my twitter bot

I like the fact that whilst I'm surfing the web on my PC, it can also be mining offsetting my electricity cost.

Hardfork is looking to happen around the 26th now, not the 24th due to all the ASICS trying to mine their last few FTC before we hardfork pushing the difficulty up through the roof.

Actulay, this is good news for me as I have more time to set up my rig.
Let me talk completely raw. I was not mining with my GPU's like half year.
Guess why? Yes, low profitability (thanks ASICS!)
I know ASICS are evolution, but only rich can really catch up with this game.
For normal middle class user is almost impossible to reach hardware break even.
In fact what he gets is money loss and nice piece of hardware with no other use than
being an exhibit in the museum one day.
So the network control is focused in rich guys ASIC farms and monster pools.
I guess thats not exactly what Satoshi's plan was. Mining with CPU/GPU for fun and small profit
seems much better idea to me. In fact when you stop your hardware is still usefull for other things.
But most importantly it is possible to have more decentralized network with this solution.
I guess there is more people like me, with their GPUs not mining anymore.
Well folks, remove the dust and plug them in again.
Neoscrypt is here

Sooner or later asics will be able to mine neoscrypt, x11, x13 ... x666 so my videocards are going in history. As all old miners I am tied to work for nothing or for few cents, I am going off.
Nope, to make development of ASICS viable for Neoscrypt then FTC have to cost 5USD or something like that. Now we are at 4 cents.

I see that today the ASIc mining power on FTC is 140 GH/s, true well below what LTC has, but I wonder how much it would cost someone to find 141GH/s to 51% attach it, would it be worth it really to do so?
So your rebuttal to Smoothie is basically saying FTC will be way more vulnerable after the hardfork
No he isnt. He ist just saying that we are not scared about any 51% attack right now. And that it isnt the only reason that we fear such an attack for our Hardfork.

Smoothie is back! Best FTC thread bumper ever
So how many accounts on LTC forum are inactive or spam accounts?
Litecoin doesnt do anything, why would they even need Members
I looked and they have 20k members also.
