Nope, just busy.  Troll on.

He be trollin you mad bro?

Two things:

First, "fix" isn't the right word.  It isn't broken, it's just outdated.

Second,

so when will the fix be out, and when will the diff be in check with hash

To expand upon what has already been said:

The blockchain is slow because the difficulty is outlandish.  Bitcoin proper has a maximum adjustment when a retarget should happen. As a descendant of bitcoin, LTCD shares this limitation.  However, when Bitcoin was first introduced, the concept of multipools was foreign, and so there was no infrastructure to protect the network in the case of a massive hash rate decrease.  Recently newer altcoins have introduced alternative algorithms for calculating a proper difficulty retarget to deal with multipool coin switches, and they seem to work rather well.  The two most popular implementations are KGW and DigiShield.

In my own testing, DigiShield seems to be a bit more responsive and accurate, and so I have been working on an adaptation of their algorithm to fit the architecture I'm designing for new updates.  I have been removing difficulty calculation from main.cpp and placing it into the DifficultyShield class (which probably isn't the best name for it, but for now it's what it's called.)  Since difficulty algorithm is being abstracted into OO classes, it will be trivial if, in the future, we need to create a new implementation or algorithm.  Instead of hacking in V1, V2, V3, etc functions, we can simply derive from the base classes and only override the necessary methods.  This also starts the process of removing some of the bloat contained in main.cpp.

I have no idea if this information is useful to anyone, but I hope it serves to clear up some confusion.  The current (1.0) difficulty algorithm isn't "broken".  It works great for Bitcoin.  It works great for Litecoin.  But it isn't the right choice for LitecoinDark, and I believe we have a better solution.

I know I was.

Yes, everybody was just waiting for something like this... +1

amazing... this community is moving with rocket speed fast forward...
Brilliant work dev 

The dev and community are great! This coin can rise if people support it and make it grow along with the dev.

And the market reacts almost immediatelly...

We have made a great coin lets keep it up!

Dear LTCD Community,

Due to the fact that the coin had a dramatic launch when hitting the exchanges and nobody could imagine that the community would take it under its wings so fast, the dev team has been working day and night to satisfy everybody.

Troll is working on the Difficulty problem caused by the big Multipools, this fix should prerelease tomorrow. This prerelease will adapt DifficultyShield. The final release shield will be in v. 1.1

I am working on the road map and white paper. Road map is finished, but still needs some attention. White paper is finished on late Tuesday EU time.

Lots of new features are being tested and will during the next months be released to both the coin and wallet when probably tested.

Please remember, since this is a community coin, it is harder to bring out roadmaps and whitepapers due to the fact dev has to react on the community needs and wishes, not the dev team wishes.

Let us all create the next big thing after BTC.

Regards,

LitecoinDark Dev

Wow this coin is so big already doing so good

loling hard at the comment bro.

I already am holding since I was mining since launch.  Decided to get some more

He think he's interesting. wanker!!!!!

In the LTCD community about dogecoin find that interesting? Is it to us to buy, my God, I'm not a fool. Good luck to you.

Cut the head off a chicken, throw it in a bowl of Cheerios and chuck it at your computer screen. That should bump it up 100sat.

Yes keep buying and if you're new and want to make a good investment? Buy LTCD!

I'm pretty new to trading and trying to understand everything.  How do we push the price back up?  Just keep buying?
