I have converted my 8Gh/BTC to 8Mh/LTC few weeks ago.  Mining LTC has been more profitable then BTC for few weeks already, almost 2:1... although the difficulty is rising...

I have switched solo for the next few days.  If you have significant amount of processing power, you should mine solo as pools may fall under DDOS attack and go down, thus excluding you from the network.

We are really getting somewhere. Thanks to all.

And please make sure to get the Checkpoint, added by coblee.


Just in case...

I am doing what I can. I'm a low ender.. CPU miner but hey.. The more and more I watch this unfold via this forum and BTC-E I support the efforts of Litecoin. I won't make much nor will I have much to show in the end with the harsh use of hardware. but it's something.

I'm switching my 8GHash Bitcoin Mining to Litecoin Network for 7 days or more.
Alot of 5870, 5970 and 7970 and some CPUs too! aheUHAUEHAE
Lets fight this bitch with good energy!  lol

Done! Added 3.5MH to Litecoin Network...
All my Bitcoin rigs are down now, for a entire week, at least...

Cheers!

I'll try to do that at least on my local rig, about 550 khps, but the other rigs aren't configurable by me right now. And, litecoin mining is the same or more profitable than BTC mining right now.

Maybe you should enable merged mining so miners can mine Litecoins without losing out on Bitcoins...  Grin
That is not possible Luke-Jr, since LTC and BTC use different hashing algorithms.
Sure it's possible. Just accept SHA256 merged mining. Grin

But seriously, I was joking. I'd get my FPGAs merge-mining empty blocks if Litecoin did this. Tongue

sure provide the miner that merge mines scrypt and sha256 blockchains elegantly.....

But keep those KH/s coming. We already have a nice little bit extra Wink

Will the attack just show up as an increase in the current difficulty?  Can we see that the attack is underway?
it is not scheduled to commence until Friday Smiley

Good stuff ThiagoCMC Cheesy

He stated, that he wants to start building the fork really soon --> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/deleted-95116

So even if we increase the hashpower now it will help fending off the attack. + now some pools are still up.

Trust but confirm!
Mining ltc with 2x6850 = 400khs.. not mutch but still something Smiley

WOW.
i didn't expect that fast of an answer.

New diff. is 8.36768,
and network hashing power is 0.27434GH/s
according to allchains.info

We have to stand as a strong community against this. We can fend this off.
