Hello,
My name is C....... R...... and im ceo of a Norwegian tech company (L.......).
Im D...... on bitcointalk.
Our company L....... has designed a new scrypt asic that beats all other scrypt machines on the marked.
I really like your Apollo desktop miner and your vision for home miners and implemented node.

We do not want to produce unlimited miners and destroy the marked (like bitmain does).
Our SHA-engine is BAD ASS and we can use that in our next design for sha256.

I dont know what is your future plans is..
Your Apollo miner is so great and you have put so much work into that,that we dont want to go after that marked..
Maybe we can work together.. our chip in your Apollo.


FusionSiliconX6
Power Consumption 1073 W
Hashrate 0.860 GH/s
Performance Proxy Gh/s/W 0.8

Bitmain L5
Power Consumption 1473 W
Hashrate 1.425Gh/s
Performance proxy Gh/s/W 1.03

Innosilicon A6+
Power Consumption 2100w
Hashrate 2.2 Gh/s
Performance Proxy Gh/s/W 1.05

L.......
Power Consumption 1300w
Hashrate 4.12Gh/s
 Performance Proxy Gh/s/W 3.17


Best Regards

aka D........


He claim a 3x more efficient chip.  So I posted a redacted version here.

I sent full version to your pm

Best regards Phil

Hi together

One of my Apollo (batch2) has some issues atm. I let them (2 pc.) run in turbo mode for about 30 days. Now one of them keeps crashing after like a few hours. The other ones continues to run without issues. Only thhing what i could see was that memory (Ram) consumption gets higher and higher. (But i am not sure if this is the reason.) Any hint what i could do, a) to find out the reason and b) to fix it.

Any help very appreciated

Need a few more beta testers for the full node update. If you have a batch 2 unit and have basic terminal skills (ie can ssh into the machine and run basic commands), dm me your email address!

Hey,
I just got this Futurebit Apollo and I keep getting this error message below.
I see that there have been a few people with the same problems, I've tried what I've seen and it hasn't worked.
Any idea's before I just give up?

It seems there is a problem to communicate with the miner, check error message.

Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:4028

Wait at least 1 minute, if problem persists, try to restart the miner, check the settings or try to reboot the system.

Did u get it with or without the SIM card...

someone on ebay is selling 5 futurebit Apollo miners.He is claiming that one apollo can be cranked up to 250-400 MH/s...Has anyone tried and how many watts did it draw, Probably can only run for 10 minutes?

If you really wanna crank these things each unit can go up to 250-400 MH/s with the right tuning (Experienced users only - but I can give some level of guidance).

I don't believe this, sorry. Too much overclock+overvolt. Scam seller.

Max MHz Apollo UI allow is 858. This is about 144 MHS. Maybe 150, 160. No more.

Yes that's BS...150-155 MH/s is max for the Apollo...the regulator would blow up in 10 min on anything higher.

Hey jstefanop i know this is off topic but how is the
Low cost Plug and play node over WiFi with an easy to use interface!
comming along


When the software is released for the Apollo there will be more details on that for obvious reasons. The hardware will essentially be the Apollo controller, and software wise it will be nearly the same as the Apollo minus the mining part. So as soon as its ready for Apollo the standalone node will be nearly ready for release.

Hi, had my 2x Apollo’s running fine since having them. Might be changing location of the miners and have tried to remote access them/dashboard but can’t get passed the ‘Inital setup’ page. Tried iOS and Windows.

Can access them fine when on same network, but not remotely. Any clues?

Thanks

Google is your friend, just search "litecoin network nodes"

https://blockchair.com/es/litecoin/nodes

Not sure if blockchair is good a blockchain+network explorer. Just the first I found  Smiley.

Thanks
I was looking for more like a map.
Before they have a map version and it showed like in San Francisco (that’s we’re I’m at) had like 2 nodes, but one we get the node running on the Apollo there will be 3 nodes with mine Smiley

Yea, as you can see the latest LitecoinCore only has about 700 nodes running. Once our node is online and enough people upgrade we could easily be the #1 or #2 version of a full node running the litecoin network. Make no mistake this would be a game changer in decentralization.

Yeah... I have 4 Apollos and I will run a full LTC node on one of them ASAP.

I did search, found a couple of links that were dead, that’s why I asked here...but I’ll do a couple more searches.
So far google has not been my freind but ENEMY.

Does any one know of a map that shows how many nodes are there and we’re they are located.
