UK based Alpha technology has just fired the first shot in the new ASIC arms race for Litecoin and other Scrypt based alternative coins. 

These types of digital coins are similar to Bitcoin and run on a distributed network but run on a different platform called Scrypt.

Based on their proprietary technology, they have launched a 5MH/s and 25MH/s miner for sale. While these numbers are much smaller than current Bitcoin ASIC hardware, based on their current GPU competitors, these are indeed powerful machines.

Let the new ASIC mining arms race begin!!
