[Astrali]

Will this be on sale for BTC or altcoins only?  Or can I buy a few on my FIAT credit card? If so, that would be sweet!

i bought another one here (presale) https://www.eyeboot.com/futurebit-moonlander2-litecoin-miner.html

i paid with visa - should work for you as well

Greetings - Astrali

have you been following the thread? sold out for a long time in usa & europe. jstefanop was looking for regional distributors and connected with asia and s. africa only recently.

[Phash2k]

sounds nice for mining a little in the background...
does a raspi fit as host?

[Bulletdodger]

Will there be a new batch of this?

thanks

Awesome! Thanks for the link.  I'm gonna by 2.  Can you mine any Scrypt coin??

[tperkins1776]

Crap I just tried to use my VISA but said it was declined... Even though I have plenty of funds available...  Must be because it's in China somewhere...   Looks like I got to scrape up some bitcoin or try another card.

Yes, IIRC there will be more batches coming up.

If I am only running one of them, would this card work?

- Support up to 2A/5V on each USB-A downstream port.

Looks like it should work...

[Shintaro]

I found a usb hub capable of 2a per downstream that’s pi specific.

I tried a different card and it worked!  I just got 2 of them..

Can't wait!

Technical question: with the new BiTG = Bitcoin Gold forking to make it ASIC resistant. And given that Scrypt was once ASIC resistant, would you or your chip supplier be able to make an ASIC for Bitcoin Gold?

Just because a coin is marked ASIC resistant doesn't mean it is.  I recently saw that when Scrypt first came out, it was pointed out that Scrypt was not "memory hard" enough to prevent GPU usage.  And it wasn't.  Was that intentional by the creator?  Possibly.  A lot of people think alt coins are scams.  And, truly, most of them are.

Can you just plug these into a standard USB port on any PC machine? Or do you have to have a special hub like some people in this thread are suggesting?

 It's being discussed to death in this thread.

[Freelancer76]

This man will make some serious money with this thing

You can run this at the default setting on a normal USB port. If you want to overclock it to get that extra 2-3 mh/s, you need a powered hub.

I'm so excited for this 

Hoping this will be available in the Philippines and I'll pray that the price is cheaper compared to updated GPU's. Will comeback for inquiries as I'm currently deciding on making my own mining rig.
