It could, I laboured this point with Sam as we struck up communications in the beggining, I wanted to see Mars as a Litecoin miner and wouldn't take no for an answer, there was even a poll on the homepage about it. I'm still determined to get this project off the ground, as I think KnC developing for it would also strengthen the interest and further recognition w.r.t. the currency via bespoke hardware from a reputable brand taking LTC seriously.

Currently it is a question of resources, they want to absolutely nail down their interest and product dev w.r.t. Bitcoin.

Believe me I confronted Marcus about LTC again this morning and he is interested for sure, but if they create something for scrypt, or multi-alts, they have to have the man power to spare as they will not panda around half-heartedly. That means a separate team that has to be able to develop autonomously with minimal disruption to the Bitcoin project(s). A lot of companies make mistakes in biting off more than they can chew and developing multiple product lines. Personally I believe BFL did exactly that and should have just concentrated on developing the 'Single' range. It's also why Payonix is such an overt scam.

All the time, i'm playing a broken record...

My suggestion, email and let them know the demand is there.

So ..what we need to know now is why Nov boards are so much faster.
Thx for the info, good luck

for the files:




My Nov. Jupiter just arrived today at 11am at my home (germany)
and hashing now at 658 GH/s. connected to a CoolerMaster M2 1000W PSU.

(all ventilators are mounted correct, packing was in well condition. Pool data was preconfigured to my Guild Account)
(no additional package Content , no bill, no Manual - nothing except the miner)

My OrderNr.: Order #856x  Status changed at saturday to : in Progress -> yesterday changed to Shipped (Payed)
UPS shipping mail was coming yesterday: advice to delivery today.


all went fine!





Edit: hashing now at 677 GH/s !  


Edit2: damn, i wish i ordered more of them!

In fact my comment was to prevent trolls LOL, really i totally wrong topic excuse me

I agree...starting now, buying new VGA-hardware to join the Litecoin network will not give you good ROI prospectives at all ...
But in my case: I started in May and didn't sell any Litecoin I mined. It was all deep red ROI until 20 days ago....Now I can say I made a 10 times profit on the initial hardware cost(but have to subtract 2 times on Energy cost, leaving 8 times).  Odd...being a Miner.

Thats what I meant, I couldn't really see anyone trolling on this page. 

It was referred to a post in this page, read all (not quoted intentionally)

A bit of context would help here

LOL I think con could afford to buy 60 if he really wanted to. Not that he should, thats up to him. I think he's in it for the long term stash.

I just don't get how someone has the cheek  and can continue Trolling with buyers of mining equipment   

what does this mean? are you gonna receive a free Neptune? If you dont i will buy you one  . And no i'm not rich

Don't you know miners are rich and will keep reinvesting in more hardware and mining till they're not?

Wait that didn't come out right...

Don't count too much on it. Everybody is wondering the same currently, and mining LTC is a lot easier than mining BTC.
Current Hashrate is only 48GH/s, or ~65000 AMD 7970/r9 280x.

With a 48$ LTC at the time of this post, you will have a rush on AMD's graphical cards, and you potentially have a few millions already sold in the previous monthes (from 7870 to r9 290x) that just need the person to be informed.
With a difficulty retarget every 3/4 days (could be even 2), expect it to explode in the next 2/3 weeks, then stabilize again when the expected ROI for newcomers will be more than 6 monthes.
Except of course if the LTC is at 200$+, which will just mean that the difficulty plateau will be 4 times higher than now.

So the question is in fact the same one as for BTC, will you ROI your investment ? Yes if the LTC increase by at least 2 times more while difficulty do not increase by 5-10 folds, else no.
The only difference is you'll know it much sooner (< 2 monthes).

I just don't get how someone with his power costs can continue buying mining equipment

He doesn't have any miners to lull him to sleep with their soporific hum and nice warm breeze.

Phoenix. You ever sleep?
You are almost always online.
You are really active. Thats a compliment

Have you bought miners from KNC before? It is for prior customers only right now, signed in.

I think they stated they wanted to just plain don't have the time nor engineers at the current pace..of turnover/production of btc products and design etc ....of course with LTC at $40 usd now that could change in a hurry!

Anyone knows if KnC plans to make a litecoin miner? I think they were considering this.
