@TheWillsFamily That’s weird, shoot us an email or dm with a screenshot!

@FutureBit No version listed, but the button is yellow and blinking, at the bottom where the updates usually show up there just isn't anything there besides System>Reboot>Shutdown

Apollo OS 2.1.1 is in wide release! This is a large bug fix release from beta and OS 2.1 is now available to all devices! Release also includes support for rental hashpower for our Solo Pool service. You can now connect nearly an exahash of hashrate to any Apollo Full Node!

@TheWillsFamily Did you click on the power button? The update shows up when you click the version number in that menu!

@FutureBit Apollo II Full Node

@TheWillsFamily Which device are you on? FYI reflashing your sd card only resets your user account and settings, the node is not touched and will still be fully synced.

@FutureBit V2.10 isn't showing any updates available but the power button on UI is blinking yellow, I really don't want to reflash and resync it all, anyone have any suggestions🤔

@AlienSnarky Some early solo nodes shipped with beta version with this bug, you will need to reflash your sd card for the update.

@FutureBit Trying to update the software v2.1.1 for the Solo Node. There is no On/Off button on the UI to complete update. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

@Mr_Hundredaire Try and sync a full node to that and let us know how it goes

2TB SSD drives are now retailing for $400. Our 2TB Solo Node with 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM is $599. Do with that information as you will.

Pick yours up below, prices go up next week by $100 due to new higher cost SSD drives. shop.futurebit.io/products/solo-…

@Syn_Division @aginglybald All that equals the hashpower of one Apollo III 😅

@aginglybald @FutureBit My setup is ridiculous lol and I figure if I ignored the cost. Then it's free (even if it definitely isn't)

@innerhat Yep, insane value right now!

@FutureBit Pretty good price point and spec for a mini pc in general

@bpp1373949 If you add a worker name to each miner (or use a different payout address for each one) then yes each worker diff is tracked and shown on the solo pool page!

@FutureBit This is amazing news, and thrilled to see so many updates and improvements coming to the ApolloOS finally.. is there currently a way to see each miners best difficulty, or does it only show the current best diff without saying which miner achieved it?

@djamaako Some solo nodes had a UI bug in initial beta release that shipped with some units, in the case you will need to reflash your sd card in the link above!

@FutureBit I have a solo node, I can’t find the upgrade button, tell me how to do the update?

@MagnoBTCmaxi We love giving back to all of you that continue to support our mission!

@FutureBit You guys just keep on giving! Most underrated Bitcoin company in the world!!

@compass_mining 👀

Can you mine Bitcoin at home in 2026? Sure...if you have: -240V circuits -76 dB noise tolerance -6 cent/kWh electricity -very tolerant family Consider joining us instead!

@BitcoinErrorLog We tend to agree 😉

I have a soft spot for bitcoin-miner heating appliances. I just think the idea that everyone's heaters, BitAxes, and Umbrels are powering Bitcoin is much cooler than billionaires with massive ASIC datacenter farms lobbying the government and such.

@djamaako Hi this depends a lot on whether you rebooted the system after sync, what apps you are running etc. The node is designed to detect extra ram and use it to speed up sync, 8GB is more than enough, it’s just a slower sync time by about 12-24 hours.

@FutureBit Why is my memory usage so high? It was around 5GB recently, but now it's 9GB. If that's normal, then 8GB is way too low for the Apollo III.
