Well, there are some heavy hashers at Coinotron and bitparking.

Bitparking top individual hash rate is around 44 GH. If they are doing that with GPU's, that would be one hell of a setup. Shocked

I think that could be some FPGA'S, of course it could be a pool feeding into them.

Coinotron has a 15 GH individual, in the realm of possibility with GPU, but still one hell of a setup.

I run between 5 and 6 GH and that is hard enough to handle between heat and current draw with GPU miners. Grin

want to know if ASIC miners can be used on PPC?? same algorithms right?? so no reason y not?? just out of interest if this is the case... then potentially one user could 51% attack the alt coins easier??? or am i missing something??

ASIC should be able to mine ppc I don't see why not. Although I am waiting for an actual confirmation from someone with ASIC (dunno if there is anything shipping now) to be 100% sure. I don't yet have a confirmation on whether one of fpga miners works. Although nobody complained about not working either.

As to 51% attack, having >50% mining power of the network is not sufficient to control main chain once the proof-of-stake protection is stable. Right now central checkpoints protect the blockchain as well.

When will this be you presume? Just curious is all.

Well, that didn't take long. It's now less profitable to mine PPC than BTC. Everybody get back onto LTC now!

Maybe, but with ~~221.30264032 BTC~~ 254.35264032 BTC of bids over 0.00015000, this is far from over.

You may not be growing your capital, but you are surely building up your karma.

People took a chance on BTC and we can all see the many great ideas and possibilities that flourished.

I'm taking a chance on experimentation in general. Code is meant to be improved upon.

PPCoin is to Proof-of-Stake what I0Coin is to alternate cryptocurrencies, or what Tenebrix is to CPU coins.
An experiment. Thank you for helping cryptocurrency research by buying PPC.

Hurry up and sell while you can. This is just a temporary spike. Though I'm kind of hoping it keeps up since it will distract people from mining Litecoin... that difficulty needs to come down to the 10-12 range.

Why sell? Buy! Grin

Anyone who's looking for a quick buck needs to GTFO. This is an experiment. I'm in for a YEAR, minimum.

Hard to say. if you're buying a bit coin or two worth you can get a good price relative to earlier. someone go do that so i feel better about all the ppcoins i just got.

Was it you who jumped off the PPC cliff?
