Volt mod and crypto price increase has made the old L3+ miners viable again, not too many newer units out
that do not cost a bunch of $$$ like Innosilicon A6+ or Goldshell LT5. Alt season should hopefully be starting
soon once BTC hits its big spike and retreats.

Re: Launching the Antminer L3+, World's Most Powerful and Efficient Litecoin Miner
No. Its 650W at 500mh :> or 550W@500mh if You have hardware mod
What kind of 'hardware mod' are you talking about?
TIA
Yes please elaborate on the hardware mod for lower wattage as never heard of this option before and willing to play around with a unit and try it out?
Cheers
im guessing he took off the circuit responsible for the software voltage adjustment and added an adjustable resistor that goes to a lower value.
Thanks for the info will look into it, did you replace with a specific value or variable? Still would be able to adjust via the voltage mod to a higher value as all mine are set to FE (lowest) and no hardware errors.
I will check the current value of R810 and drop it back maybe 10%

Re: [ANN][NYC] NEW YORK COIN at 2017 MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE IN NYC!
I really like the name LitecoinFree (describes NYC specs very well). You don't? But I am not planning to re-name the existing chain anything. Or market it. Or try to create extra value from it. Just ensure it is healthy and confirming transactions every 30 seconds free of charge. And give the new chain enough time to be real-world tested and proven to be worthy of replacing our amazing (slightly outdated) existing codebase.
And how are you planning to keep the 30 second transaction times with KGW?
That statement might fool some of the noob people on here but in reality you
have no control over the 30 second times with the current KGW setup and that
is part of the reason why Digishield is being implemented with the coming fork.
I am glad to hear the fork is moving ahead as planned once the issues are cleared up!
This will add needed security features to NYC and also reduce inflation with the planned block rewards reductions.

I hope this thread is still not going on years from now and there is a final conclusion.
So many have waited so long for Garza and business friends to end up behind bars!
A shame its taking so long.......

Re: [ANN][NYC] NEW YORK COIN at 2017 MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE IN NYC!
The NYC network is so resilient that all damage caused by flawed 1.3 code will immediately work itself out. My missing unconfirmed sends hanging on Coinomi for 3-4 days will now magically confirm. The NYC network is time-tested and proven!
Upon extensive, lengthy beta-testing AND UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS ONLY should a fork be considered. 2Q/3Q 2019? I guess it depends when we have fully working codebase. Then we will need lengthy testing and review. And finally implementation.

Agree? Disagree?
Disagree. We have almost 2 months before the scheduled fork height. Plenty of time to get things sorted.
Also can you please remove your posts about the fork being cancelled. You did not discuss that with the dev team at all and it's likely causing some FUD.
Yes agreed, there is lots of time to address any issues.
Glad to see the NYC Dev team moving ahead with the fork!
Re: [ANN] FutureBit Moonlander 2: The Most Powerful and Efficient USB Stick Miner!
i looked into the crashing, it has nothing to do with Power. both my hubs can provide enough power, i have stress tested it with plugging 3 Moonlanders 2s into 1 Hub, this ran fine without any speed drop. I now have 2 Hubs running 2 moonlanders each.
i wanted to know if anyone has managed to write a Crontab script that restarts the SH file every 1 or 2 hours? if so how did you do it! any help would be great.

Paul

Do you have the most current version of mining software installed?
https://github.com/jstefanop/bfgminer/releases/tag/bfgminer-5.4.2-futurebit2-beta2
Also check your computer power saving setting to make sure that nothing is turning
off to save power when idle this could be a issue.
Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread
sunk818, racebyu I have a laptop connected and i have two separate hubs for 8 USB sticks MLD2. The problem is that if power failure and after comes back even if i connect remote to laptop and restart bfgminer i still get FutureBit write error after 2-3 minutes. And to get them run again i have to restart hubs and is need to be there.
The laptop still run on battery after power goes down. I don't know if i can find a solution.

Hum, that is a interesting one, I have had once before in the past the same issue and needed to unplug and re-power the usb hub for it to clear.
If it does it again try to shut down your laptop completely and restart (not reboot) then run Bfgminer again and see if it works after 2-3 min?
Then you can eliminate the laptop USB as the issue. We it happens next time try to close Bfgminer and make sure its shut down, remove one miner
only (so not powered) plug back in and start Bfgminer and see if the one unit hashes again or you get a error after 2-3 min. Not sure but maybe
one of the miners is locking up the usb data line? As stated power can also be a issue, what freq are you running them at? These at higher freq 800+
can take over 10 watts each as the chips power draw increases almost exponentially at higher frequencies and the enough power can be critical.
Re: [ANN] FutureBit Moonlander 2: The Most Powerful and Efficient USB Stick Miner!
Ahhh nice, 27 chip miner and just under 75 watts (assuming 6 pin PCI-E is correct)?
That would make it < 2.75 watts per chip and around the same power draw of the
current L3+ BM1485 ASIC chips.
The hashing rate might be > 2.77Mhs per chip compared to the current 1.75Mhs.
So think we might be seeing a 75+Mhs miner board @ <75 watts with heat sink on
other side maybe like a Zeus Blizzard?
These are new 22nm Chips, way more efficient than what Bitmain has right now
Great job, any timeline on when your accepting preorders, will pickup a few of these like
the Moonlander 2's to play around with.

Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread
I will make a video later about my problem but i think is hard to know if that can be fixed. (After a power failure USB sticks mining again without i have to be there to restart again).
If you are running a laptop/computer is there a feature in the bios to auto start on power up?
Also you can adjust the windows settings for the miner to auto start on windows power up
or run a .bat file for your command line to start the miner after windows start up.
Re: Launching the Antminer L3+, World's Most Powerful and Efficient Litecoin Miner
Well, Bitmain has dumped the price on an L3+ down to $289 and I bet it goes lower before the month is over.
https://www.bitmain.com/
In the past, this usually means that they are dumping the last of the old product, for new product, at least for scrypt-pow machines
but I still think they have the supposed 3x the speed unit for scrypt pow at whatever the watts coming out
if so ..this will get even more ugly for those still managing to mine at 8c kWh or under (the last of us..I'm out at 14c kWh ...sold my stuff)
frigging bitmain
bitmain: evil for bitmain, is like the sun rising, to be expected and its just another day! (tm bitmain)
Ya looks like Bitmain fire sale on the L3+ now, clearing out the rest of the inventory and spare parts it seems!
Re: Launching the Antminer L3+, World's Most Powerful and Efficient Litecoin Miner
I know you guys are talking economics, but I'm still wondering if anyone has had any issues with the Fan being at 0 RPM. I'm assuming it's the controller board. Bitmain wants me to ship the whole machine back, but at these current LTC prices, not really worth the shipping fee. A new controller board from Bitmain is $60. I've tried swapping out with different fans, but no luck. I only have one L3+, so I can't swap out with a different controller board. I do have an A3 that I've switched off. Maybe I can use that controller board? Thanks.
I have never tried but think the A3, D3 and L3+ IO boards are the same on all units maybe someone can confirm?
As for the fan, which one does not work Fan1 or Fan2 or both? Each has its own drive circuit just below the plug connection a
simple component might be burned out (fan might have crapped out and blew the circuit), see if there is any burn on the surface
mounted components there, does the fan spin easily or grind a bit when spinning. You can grab on on Ebay another IO board
also fairly cheap now.

Can the software Dev's take a look in the future at the wallet code and remove all code lines that trigger false positives with virus detection software? This could be a issues with users and causes some unwanted confusion, I just got a alert when trying to open this zipped file with MalewareBytes.

I guess this is hypothetically how it could work:
1. Create new ASIC hardware and mine with it until ROI, 1st profit. (gradually turning on units over time)
2. Slowly push market prices upwards to create fast ROI on new ASIC hardware offered to make it look like a good purchase.
3. Sell new ASIC hardware and make a 2nd profit.
4. Sell mined coins from new ASIC hardware into the rising market to recoup + money spent to create rise in market, 3rd profit.
5. Re-tune the new ASIC hardware for better hashing rate and resell for 4th profit.
Seems like a Win/Win if you are a ASIC hardware supplier!
