litecoin is not sha256 PoW. its Scrypt.
If you clicked my links, you would see I have written Scrypt multiple times when discussing Litecoin mining/ASICs.
bitcoin miners wont gain anything mining asics for litecoin.. BTCC wins because they have warehouses of gpu's
segwit on litecoin and exchanges moving to concentrate on litecoin will set BTCC as the top main pool ready to gain top spot.
The industry which is the Bitcoin miners is more or less the same industry which are the Litecoin miners. It is all intertwined.
That which you have written agrees with (supports) my hypothesis.
but thinking about for instance ANTPOOL which is sha256 asic. wont gain anything from litecoin because antpools equipment is not scrypt compatible.
btcc has a warehouse of sha asics for bitcoin and a warehouse for scrypt, so btcc is set, ready, and revving to go.
not "miners" as in miners in general/the whole industry.. just btcc..
so the "industry" which you say is bitcoin miners.. wont win..
bitcoin SHA ASIC miners are NOT intertwined with LN..
BTCC (single entity) is interwined not due to technology, but blood...
btcc Bobby lee... litecoin charlie lee are brothers.
so its not a bitcoin mining industry thing can just mine litecoin thing.
its a BTCC will dominate litecoin due to already having its foot already in the door
...
PS
asic pools like antpool are making most profit on bitcoin because they manufacture asics.
sha is a simple thing to formulate into a chip. scrypt is not so much
so the real winner if litecoin picks up would be AMDATI and Nvidea
