That said, in 2 years I still can unload my graphics cards to gamers at 60+% purchase price if I'm patient. And then there's the granularity. I can get cards as gradual add-ons starting at 50€ upto 600€ range, new or used, tweakable, with decent hash rates


Well if the Scrypt ASIC becomes real, not long and mining with GPUs becomes unprofitable
Well, it depends on how much those mining units will cost upfront, how low can one undervolt GPUs, how many new alts are released, etc...

SHA/Scrypt hybrid

If if this where possible, I'm not absolutely sure maybe it actually is (but I don't think so), it would not make any sense to develop such a thing. It definitely would be inferior and more expensive than a specialized device.

Sure its possible and likely already here.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the LTC network alone jumped by 50% in a matter of days, some weeks ago. Feathercoin, Novacoin and others are also turning into giants.

A ASIC that can mine scrypt and sha? I doubt it.
I don't think the approach is to mine both on the same chip. From what I've seen somewhere, there was a system with multiple SHA asics, some GPUs and ram.

Anyone Visited Scrypt Asic International?

They say that there is a Scrypt ASIC coming.   I wonder what size die that they are using?  what is the size of the chip technology in nm.  can anyone answer that?

i am just getting involved in ltc and it seems there are potentially scammers out there. even this page is nothing but full of promises. i am targeting more on alpha-t.net and crypto industries. whats strange is that all three of them are from uk..

Their site seems like a bunch of bullshit, we aren't going to mine with it to prove it's hashrate?

"We have had a lot of emails asking why don’t we mine on a pool to prove its hashing speed but we do not feel that this is fair to have to choose a particular Scrypt coin to mine, we want to keep everything neutral and fair."

What a bunch of shit lol.

typical scammer excuse

I don't. But what do I know. lol

Its all greek code to me. Grin

Somehow i share that feeling that something is already out there, but the recent Network Spikes, i'm sure was caused by the new Multipool Poolhoppers. Fucking up the Diff for everybody so we all have to Poolhopping.

If you meant the multi-junkcoin rapers, I do not believe it is them because the significant difficulty jumps have been sustained. Also, most of the increases happened before coin hopping became popular.

LTC difficutly :
2013-07-30 - 892.55283431
2013-05-28 - 595.65349676
2013-03-12 - 38.89263410

I predicted the asic invasion of the alts would start after the Bitcoin difficulty surpassed the 30-50M mark, months ago.

Soon, the junk coins that hold enough value will be devoured just like Bitcoin was. :/

can someone please explain that last sentence?

Depending on the remaining area left on the fpga it could be done, but kinda pointless since difficulty is going so high, you would just be wasting electricity. (Or asic depending how it was designed.)

That's 12 gbytes/second which is 120x faster than the video memory in the newest Playstation. Think its a scam?

The unit works up to specifications and was tested with CGminer using Litecoin, Novacoin and Feathercoin. We chose to test on high global hash rate coins, so not to eff


Pic's or it didn't happen



I bet 1BTC it^s the same retarded British .... who also tried to sell something like a PS3 as fabulous Miner.
At least he get's a little bit better at Web Design, not really better but at least no more photoshopped Jallys.

As I am based in the UK I have contacted them as asked if can go for a visit and maybe take at least a photo of one working and the outside of the case. That's if they even give me their address.

I am so tempted to spend even just a small amount of BTC's of this site, even more so if there claims of a SHA/Scrypt hybrid are true.
