      I see a few orphans, one after the other on fcpool.com and there was an increased hashrate there.

                    There’s such a lot of effort on FTC for a ‘dead coin’.

                      That’s unfortunately what makes the attacks worse. We need to out hash the attackers or at least make it harder for them to out hash us.

                        Yeah, it’s 1,479,395 KHash/s last I checked… On the “Last 20 blocks” we only have 4 more blocks to confirm… If only confirmations were always this fast:P

                        Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t we need more hashing power on our end to fight this?

                          If the “current network hashrate” on the stats page is an average of 60 block, how the hell does it jump to 1.5ghs? Then drop back to 600?

                            Exactly, something isn’t being reported right or we just had the entire LTC pools come slamming down on us for a bit. As always, Bushstar will investigate when he wakes up.

                                Be interesting to see whether the latest block found on coinotron 33635 gets orphaned as well. I guess that’ll tell if we are back on track. It’s sitting waiting confirmations now.

                                    Is it possible to change block chain or even the scrypt algo just enough so that its incompatible with ltc pools?

                                            Can we get a situation forum open to everyone or shall we use the general forum?
