Official FutureBit Apollo LTC Image and Support thread

[jstefanop]

the only real disappointing thing is that my Apollo will never find a block lol its best share ever is less than 5,000 so no where near the share needed to find a block. but it mines great on a pps pool, I will just never go solo with it.

I found a block last month. Ok that's a lot of luck and probably won't find another, but I did find one!

which scrypt coin were you mining?

Litecoin

nice! I cannot get mine to get a decent share ever. its currently been on line for 2d 1h 52m and best share is 3,074 - needed is 5,867,504.3 or thereabouts

Its all luck when it comes to good shares. 2 days is not much of a sample size. For example one of my test units has been up for 44 days...its best share is 78k.

Congrats! were you solo mining??

Yes, solo

oh for sure, my best share since I bought it is less than 5k - have not ever had a higher share on litecoin. have been on 4 or 5 pools with it.


note: it has found almost a dozen digibyte blocks though.

I mined dgb on gos.cx here is a shot today of it on gos.cx  though lately - dgb diff has skyrocketed so its not doing well there atm - so i moved it back to pps on litecoinpool.org - I did the below just now to get the screenshot for you.



edit:

btw has anyone gotten this? where it shows it mining multiple pools with full hash and getting shares at both?

[iDisturbia]

LoL I cant help but see it - it sits right on my desk and its in AM so any time I look at any of my miners, I see all my miners

I hear you! It’s in miner’s DNA!

Addictive too!

I actually check my GPU based rigs to squeeze every bit extra hash possibly can!! It’s like a never ending adventure!

ASICs, you just set them up and done - as far as I can tell!!

with my asics, i am always checking their temps, changing the voltage to see if i can get higher hash without critical temps, trying other coins within their algo, trying different pools etc etc

I also found a block last year, at Litecoinpool  .

Yea Litecoin is in a nice spot for solo mining right now with how low its diff is. If all Apollos are currently mining litecoin, there should be about one Apollo user finding a block every day.

That might be a fun update...build a website that keeps track of all blocks found by users

that would be cool though my apollo will never be on it lol I am using Awesome miner to get my best share - is it possible that AM reports the best share wrong?

Hi there ^^
I'm probably the 26 or 27.. from Tahiti, in the middle of nowhere  
I had to open the port manually.
My internet connection is full ahahah (got also few L3+ and S9 running) (1mo/s dowload max - 150/200 ko/s upload max, but it works )
Just to tell those who hesitate because it looks complicated, don't hesitate anymore, if a noob like me gets there, it's within everyone's reach!

I have a little question, in few days i'm about to download another node from another project coming in phase 2 ..
wouldn't it be better to have a second connection ?

Happy mining and "nodeing" to everyone,
Take care all of you

if you are asking about running multiple nodes for different projects that should not be an issue. I have close to 12 different nodes running now. I am currently loading a verge node even as I type this.

<3 perfect
Thank you !

So now that I have my full node setup and running, (I think number 28?) does it or can it make me more money?  Securing the network is all well and good, but it would be greatly appreciated if I could increase my profits by running a full node.

Short answer: No!

You see those giant ASICs on litecoinpool? They suck up the coins -> we secure the network with our nodes -> so they can sell them high!!

But we are ok with that as long as our grand grand grand children can enjoy this decentralization business!

It’s probably a personal question so feel free to ignore  but what are your other fav coins out there?

Again, I understand it’s a private matter - so my apologies in advance.

nah i dont mind. currently mining dash, verge, litecoin, doge, litecoin cash, digibyte and bitcoin.

though I dont keep any real quantity of anything but doge and bitcoin.

the others are just ways to make revenue. Just started with giving verge a go at it today.

in the past i have mined bitcoin cash, monero, ethereum, ravencoin, x0, digital note and a handful of others that all get sold rather quickly.

I dont like to keep the alt coins but I like supporting crypto in general and that is why I run as many nodes as I can.

Thanks for sharing. So, 100% ASIC expert we’ve got here!

I’m still learning but recently became interested in privacy coins - before that invested some big money on ETH mining stuff which not happy with my decision. Didn’t do my homework enough!

Running nodes is a nice thing to do. I‘m going to do the same soon with other coins too.
