I was so excited to hit 10 L3’s (L7’s would not be released for another 5 months). LTC DIFFICULTY was 1/10 of what it is today at 9.5 M versus 96M DOGE difficulty was 4.4M versus 56M today.. this was only about 5800 Mhs

I have averaged about 90 Doge or $20 per day the last week on PowerPool with an L9 16GH. Just wondering if they are still the best since it’s much lower than what MiningNow or even AsicMinerValue says I should be getting. If you could provide your hashrate and average payout in DOGE/USD it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hey all,

I created a new solo mining calculator website, and the Litecoin blockchain is included. I designed it to calculate the % chance of mining at least one block in the time period displayed, along with the statistical average of blocks you would get in that time period. Before anyone says it, I also have Dogecoin, since most people do merged mining! 😎

The feedback I’d like is related to the UI and the math calculations. The models used are displayed with the results. Let me know if you have any questions!

They got me previously on the 1st Gen E9’s .. they released the L9 way ahead of schedule because of competition. This announcement coincides with when the L7’s were announced in Aug of 2021. The question is what are they going to price these at and what will the impact be to difficulty.. I see the DOGE difficulty going to 60 million quickly ( eventually going to 75-80 millions by year end ) from its current 40853028 (40 million). It appears a bunch of these have been flipped on in the past several hours (testing)… Bitmain can churn these out way faster than the other 2 Scrypt competitors Volc and ElphaPex

LTC’s price has been performing very well in recent weeks, and its mining hashrate has been increasing.

It seems that LTC is regaining its popularity among miners.

Let's mine LTC and its merged coins at f2pool!

I'm looking for software for a linux server to run a litecoin node and a private pool with it.

Any suggestions?

What’s a good set up for home mining ltc?

Ive looked into the fulminer l1 and the goldshell lt lite

Been mining on hyper donkey for a week now, and it’s been pretty refreshing in comparison to PPS pools. No blocks have been hit for a while, but honestly it’s fun with a mini dogs plus to check and see if we hit anything. Much more fun than a few doge and scraps of ltc with sub 1Gh/s hash rate.

No affiliation other than having my miner pointed there! Check it out, or don’t, cheers and GL!

No longer the Front runner in Scrypt mining thanks to VolcMiner and ElphaPex. No one is paying 8000 for an L9.. realistically through a reseller with all the import tariffs included a 17 GHS L9 based on current profitability is worth no more than 5500. Plus even at that you have a lot of risk of a a L9 Pro coming out as Bitmain has proven over and over to not be second or 3rd tier. Also we could see a completely new unit by a New company, Goldshell, Fluminer, iPollo or Jasminer.

Kaspa and Kadena had a new miner from a new companies completely destroying the profitably sometimes before the latest and greatest even came out. Don’t think Scrypt is immune to that

Hello hello!

I have an option to place one or two miners and pay little to zero on electricity - my father's business is running its own solar power.

He said if I buy a miner or two he wouldn't notice the difference in the long run, so here I am, with questions:

• is mining an arms race? I mean, do I have to keep buying an upgrading miners to be profitable? If I just buy a miner and leave it on can I expect 12-15% return yearly?
  • for the purpose of this answer assume the price of LTC / Doge stays as it is today
• are there any other hidden costs?
• what miner should I be looking to buy?
• what are the risks and tips I should be aware of?

I looked at this sub and took notes of other people's questions but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here :)

Regards

If you live in Texas or Louisiana you can have these Free.. the cost 8000. You can get both extraction fan too for 400 if you want those too

You need one intake in the room and each manifold needs one window to exhaust

I threw like 12 in total away.. they served their purpose.. luckily the L7’s were dumped late last year versus suffering the same fate 😂

Got these 5 KnCMiner Titans and some kind of control board the other day for "free" with a bundle of PC components that I bought. With these being from 2014, are these e-waste in 2025? These miners seem to be a bit of an enigma online from what I'm reading... not much info out there - thank you for any insight!

its been like this for 45 minutes. indefinitely loading. not sure what to do.

Where did all the old ones go, nothing on ebay other than the newer stuff?

Those of you who have been doing this for awhile know Bitmain never plays second fiddle. They only upgrade when they have to. Bitmain and have all the resources to do it. The L9 was announced and released in my opinion a year earlier than expected because of the VolcMiner D1 announcement previously.

Interesting to see 2 competitors holding their own against Bitman. The bar is now set at an efficiency of .19j/Mh by ElphaPax. I would not be surprised to see an L9 PRO with 22 or 23 Gh/s at .18-.19j/Mh announced by BITMAIN before August 15th. This type of competition wreaked Havoc in the KASPA miners where units that were cutting edge became obsolete within Months. BE CAUTIOUS. Nothing sucks worse than to see your 10,000 miners pulling 2.00 of less a day ( I should know been there done that )

Recently we have had a bit of a consolidation on LTC and really the market as a whole, and we have been sitting a resistance. Soon the market will pump, and machine prices will go up to follow!

Everything listed is stateside, so a quick delivery and no tariffs to pay!

We’re excited to announce our LTC & DOGE mining contest!

Join LTC merged mining at f2pool and compete for a spot in the Top 50!

Anybody know what happened?

Since the friendly negotiation of tariff policies in May, the crypto market has become active again. At the same time, mining revenue has also benefited from the rise in coin prices and has become more profitable.

LTC mining revenue has also risen to a recent high.

Cheers for that!

Wish me luck, this should be interesting.

Stuck with Miningcore error -1 of a strict mode to get block template. I fixes the coins.json file with segwit and mweb an error code 8. This new mode error is not allowing the pool to fully start. Stuck at Daemon synced at 100% over and over. Anyone one fix this issue?
