      How hard is it for an ltc pool (or any other scrypt pool) to swing their hashes to ftc for a short while?

            Since we’re calculated over the full 504 blocks, as long as this is temporary, we shouldn’t see *much* on an effect right?

                  I am a noob when it comes to the mining and diff changes (straight up buyer) and have always wondered how the hash effects the difficulty, is there a specific hashrate that would be an up or down point for the next retarget?

                              Something odd is going on right now, most pools are down and my deposit to btc-e hasn’t been credited at 16 confirms. I am dedicating hashrate right now to help counteract the attack that is likely happening right now I hope others do as well.

                              BTC-e is very slow. If you send to you wallet it goes like normal. Its a BTC-e thing with that.

                                I plan to meet with Bush and pool-owners to figure out what we can do to help mitigate these DDOS attacks. As Feathercoin starts climbing, I expect to see more attempts on the coin.

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