Title: [2015-10-21] Chinese Miner Releases 14 nm ASIC, Targeting Consumers Post by: LiteCoinGuy on October 21, 2015, 02:53:26 PM Chinese Miner Releases 14 nm ASIC, Targeting Consumers
One of the lower profile bitcoin mining manufacturers, China-based Bi Wang (BW), has reportedly unveiled a 14 nm ASIC (application specific integrated circuit). http://www.financemagnates.com/cryptocurrency/innovation/chinese-miner-releases-14-nm-asic-targeting-consumers/ Title: Re: [2015-10-21] Chinese Miner Releases 14 nm ASIC, Targeting Consumers Post by: gogxmagog on October 21, 2015, 03:33:38 PM impressive specs, if they are actual, but every time i hear anything about any ASIC chip manufacturer, especially selling to the consumer market, and doing pre-sales at that, I can only think of all the other failures and scams that have come before. I wonder if Fried Cat took his old IPs over to them and is covertly working there now?

Add to that the import cost and duty fee's and by the time
you get them, they will be outdated and you will never see a ROI. The pre-order thing will not work, with all the pending court cases going on, where people are still trying to get refunds from previous orders that got cancelled. |
