Did we loose about a third of our hashing power for scrypt when the coin value dropped? Always remember port 7777 being at upper 900MHs. Now always in the 600s

We've lost around 150MH or so in the past couple weeks. We were generally only over 900 while mining some coins that already had a decent amount of dedicated miners.

Not sure if it's people going back to dedicated LTC (or other coin) mining, or people shutting down their GPUs because it's not profitable anymore.

I'm not sure how it was ever profitable. Maybe way back. I do not pay for electricity and am still struggling to break even on my $1k worth of cards let alone be profitable. For me just worth having the cards keep mining in the hopes to break even. Scrypt is worth half or less what it used to be, but BTC has doubled, so can get the same amount back for selling .5 BTC as I used to for 1 BTC. To me it seems to be a wash from today and before some Chinese company said they will take BTC as payment and now all of a sudden BTC is through the roof. Still never quite understood why that was something we should all consider this big of a deal. Accepting as a legit currency is nice, but swinging the dial that far?
