I bought in at 8000 sats and then basically haven't been watching the exchange.
I had no idea it went up to 15000 sats and has now dropped significantly to under 2000 sats.

Looks like I'm out of pocket on another coin. lol.
Don't you just love this cryptocurrency lark.  Cheesy  

It happened to me on another coins, you have to be aware of your investment, could have almost double your investment.

Any chance this coin will be higher up in the sats.
I haven't been keeping an eye on this coin so have no idea on whats been happening.
Has the dev walked or something.
I am trying to work out if or when to sell my coins.

Well its theoretically possible it could increase, but I dont think its very likely. I think its more likely it will keep decreasing to zero. I would cash out and salvage what little % I could from my initial investment before its too late.

Eddit: Just look at the declining hashrate. (divide by a number between 10-20 to get scrypt equivalent) Also look at the richest list. Besides the exchange and pool wallets, There are very few people holding any significant amount of ICB.

Hmmm sell now and take loss before the coins become worthless or hold to POS phase and hope for a pump?  Huh

i bet we wont see 800 or below in 3 days.
wanna bet,escrow? lets see your braveheart

No problem. I'll bet you 50BTC for it. Are you in?
Oh no wait, you most likely only have 0.12BTC in your wallet...

I volunteer to "escrow" these 50 bitcoins safe and sound in my wallet! Tongue


Haha! On a second thought, If you have a few extra BTC lying around cant you just pump this coin for us?

OK serious post. I dont understand why there are so many posts worrying about the
"low price?" If you look at bittrex, the trading volume is extremely low. Each buy or sell that moves the market is only about .2-.3 BTC. All these trades are fractions of bitcoins. The lack of significant buy or sell walls tells me that the majority of people are holding their ICB rather than selling it. This means that once serious trading starts, for just a few BTC, someone could easily pump this coin up to several times its current value. In my opinion we will see a huge pump at some point in the next week.

OK for my replacement controller to fix the one that was DOA, I didnt get any response to my email requests for shipping date or tracking number. Lack of communication makes me worried, however, via calling DHL I got my tracking number and it should be arriving in the next day or two. Thank you Jack for sending this replacement. If this works OK I will be a very happy customer.  Smiley

good news.

1, LA3M usd2400+ usd150 for dhl. LA6M USd4800+usd300 for dhl.
2, stable controller firmware ready. all new order will be shipped with new controller. scrypt speed will be 3.7-3.8mhs/la3m.
3, all shipment will be 2-7days.
4, web store will be online this week. more easy to place order and track it.

I bought a LA6M nearly a month ago and received one controller that is unstable with 10 miners and one controller that was broken on arrival. When will you fix this broken hardware and ship a new controller??? Communication would put everyone's minds to rest.

I bought a LA6M but one of the controllers was DOA. To run 10 of my units, I bought a gridseed controller from zoomhash but it doesn't seem to have any firmware loaded. Is there a guide to setting up a gridseed controller somewhere? Thanks!

Where can i buy a controller?!?

One of mine was DOA. I am running 19 off 1 controller. Its buggy tho. Jack is unresponsive :/

You could go for a windows/linux with cpuminer.. and spawn 19x cpuminer instances.

I guess this is gonna be my method of attack for now. Luckily i have 3 GPU rigs Smiley

I have this same problem. One of my controllers was DOA. You cant run more than 10 per controller without serious stability issues. If you run them off the computer you wont be able to disable the sha-256 function and they will be using a lot more power. I have doubts that the included psus can handle the extra load of dual mode. Please let me know what you find.

http://cryptomining-blog.com/1165-download-cpuminer-for-gridseed-5-chip-gc3355-asics-with-reduced-power-usage/

Works very well for me. Power draw at the wall using the modified cpuminer went from ~55W to ~10W per unit.


Thanks! I'll try that while I wait for another controller.

My review so far is that I am not happy with my order. I have a LA6M and received one working controller and one broken controller. The broken controller wont even show an IP. Apparently no one is doing quality control checks over there. This means I can only run 10 units while the other 10 are sitting around collecting dust  Angry. I am requesting a replacement controller from jack.

In theory, if you chain together both 10-port USB hubs to the single controller it should work...the controller's are supposed to be able to handle upto 20 miners.

Now how that works in practice remains to be seen.

I'd also suggest you jump over to the litecointalk forums and look for the Scripta thread...DrFranz & Chirale have a Rasberry Pi version of minerd working for these...it's not perfect but it can help you get going.  I've tested this version of Scripta + minerd and it does work -- the only catch is that it doesn't turn off the BTC chip so it still draws extra power....but this approach can act as a stop-gap until Jack makes this right for you.

I tried 20 on one controller and it doesnt work. It lags and they all crash after a couple of minutes. 10 works fine though. I really dont want to run the sha-256 cores because of the greatly increased energy draw.

I got my LA6M today but only one of the controllers is functional  Angry. The other controller isn't recognized by my router. This means I can only run 10 units right now (only half of my order). I tried all 20 on one controller but it wont use all the miners and only gets 3mh total. Not happy with this situation. Is the lightningAsic brand the only controller that disables sha-256? I need a controller (that disables sha-256 and only mines scrypt) fast.

I got a LA6M but, unfortunately, one of the controllers is broken  Angry. One controller conects to my router without any issues but the other one is not recognized. It just blinks but the nothing shows up on the router. If I swap it out, the other controller works fine. Ive tried switching cables etc, but nothing fixes it. What are my options now? I am trying to run all 20 on one controller but it lags, restarts every 5 minutes, and I cant get more than 3mh total out of all 20 miners. It took so long to get the LA6M that I have doubts that I will be able to get a replacement controller from asiabtc within a few weeks. Is it possible to buy the same controller on amazon and add the default gridseed firmware? Is the only other option to hook half of them up to a computer and run them that way? I would like to avoid direct usb to computer because I wont be able to deactivate the sha-256 option. Any other ideas?

everyone bitching about there parcels not picked up.

in china, people use third party couriers for dhl. This is from personal experience
The third party can take upto 7 days to deliver your package to DHL. Most of the time your package is in a warehouse

Jack has used DHL to create the waybill number. once he hands the package over to the the third party courier, its out of his control.
The third party courier is were the problem lies. you cannot do anything but wait. its annoying I know.

ive been there.
So stop your bitching!!! and wait



No you are wrong. People are angry because other people who paid AFTER them are receiving their orders FIRST, emails were being ignored for days, and orders are shipping out late. No one would have any complaints if orders were shipped in the correct order and inquiries received a prompt response.

Another day and still no answer to my email inquiry on when my order will ship...  Buyers beware on Tuesday it will have been two weeks since I paid 5400$ and I am still empty handed!  Angry


OK, I just got off the phone with DHL and they located my shipment and provided me with my tracking number. They informed me that my package was shipped on the 22nd but was not updated until this morning which is why when I spoke with DHL previously, they could not locate it.  Since I did not hear from jack or angela, I was starting to panic but it looks like everything is in order and I will receive later this week. The lack of communication and delays were frustrating but as long as I get a working LA6M I will be satisfied.  Smiley

Hi I ordered on the Litecoin forum. I exchanged pms with jack and he assured me that my order would ship in 1 week. I paid 5400 for the LA6M via bank wire on the 11th. My bank said that the "next day wire" transfer was complete within two days. On the 19th Angela confirmed that they had received my money and said they "booked shipping please wait." At this point there is still no tracking number from Angela. I called DHL yesterday and they said there was nothing shipped yet from Hong Kong to my zipcode. Its frustrating seeing that orders placed after mine have been filled.  Huh
