LITECOIN REACHES A MILESTONE – 1TH/S

According to the Liteshack, the Litecoin network hash rate reached 1TH/s, the equivalent of 1PH/s in Bitcoin (on GPUs), which was a milestone heralded as the arrival of Bitcoin. This comes on the heels of the merge mining of Dogecoin andLitecoin.
In an effort to survive, Dogecoin has switched to an auxiliary proof-of-work. The merger alone signals a positive attitude towards the future of Litecoin, and this new milestone is icing on the cake.
