I dont understant why more people didnt buy standard unit, its more cheaper then full node unit, I run on my computer with Windows, works OK. Its true that you cant mine solo on your ovn node but you can use solo pool (kano, ck). On the same computer I run BTC full node on Windows, costs me only 2TB SSD disk. If I be more comp freak I can mine with standard unit to ovn node.
They do, they just pair it with their Apollo Full node.
These forums are now an echo chamber of advanced users/early adopters, our user base is now almost entirely new bitcoin users/first time miner/node buyers.
They want a plug and play experience and will pay more for that and thats the market we obviously serve. It's even hard for me to understand sometimes but you have to place yourself in the shoes you were in the first time you heard about bitcoin.
If there was a device like the Apollo Full Node back then I would have jumped on it right away....there wasn't and thats why I built it
Yes, and I am thankful you did. I bought an original Apollo Full Node unit and two standard units shortly after they came out. It was my first experience home mining and I bought them to help myself learn more about the network as well as support the Bitcoin network and have more "skin in the game". I now have four more of the Apollo 2s spread throughout my small home providing my heating, supporting the network, and lottery mining. I love these products and appreciate how much they've helped me learn. Thank you!
