I did another block hash lock at the last difficulty change at block 10080. Please get latest source, compile, and run it.

Windows client: https://github.com/downloads/coblee/litecoin/litecoin-windows-client-40104.zip

I've asked twobits to help build windows daemon. Coming soon.

This should be the last update for a while now. The diff will catch up to the network hashrate and we should be pretty good.

The convergence is remarkable. Just 5 difficulty increases and we got a stable network. I have to say congratulations as well, coblee.

Whatever happens, you deserve credits for your effort and consistency so far. Don't have much BTC, so do you have an LTC donation address?

Just one ancillary note coblee, with all respect to the work you've done so far. Feel free to disregard the following:

Your avatar seems to me rather unfitting for an alternative chain promoter.

I was fine with the harmless vegetarian insect.

Also fine with the greedy carnivorous serpent.

But a chicken Huh Or is it something else judging by its paws? Maybe I am wrong.



it's a Chocobo. google it. my favorite character of my favorite video game.

for a donation address, search a few pages back. EskimoBob posted it. all donations to me will be used to make this coin succeed via bounties/rewards.

speaking of that, terrytibbs is helping me to design a logo for Litecoin. I figure I should open it to everyone. If anyone else want to give it a try, post your logo to this thread. I will reward 100 LTC to the designer of the logo I ultimately go with. I realize 100 LTC is not a lot, but having your logo being selected is a good reward by itself.

hmm... maybe I should have premined to have coins for bounties. Cheesy
