Profitability calculation:

Ixcoin difficulty: 1024
Ixcoin / bitcoin difficulty ratio : .0005421469
ixcoin / bitcoin price ratio: 0.00023231

It's over folks, 'twas a fun experiment!

You forget that you get almost twice as many Ixcoins as Bitcoins per block.

So when you take that in to account, difficulty ratio is about 0.000282133, and Ixcoin seems to be trading a bit above that right now. So it's still slightly more profitable to mine Ixcoins. That said, I don't see it continuing for too long. Was a fun day mining :-)
