Title: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: noncecents on April 01, 2013, 04:56:18 PM Via @BFL_News (Twitter) via the BFL forums shout box:
BFL shipped their first ASIC today to Luke, a developer of mining software which will support Butterfly Labs' mining hardware. And now pictures: https://t.co/KPwgrqqkCq https://t.co/SBmDT1LMA4 https://t.co/Wy3lWuskwj Quoting: BFL_Josh (Shoutbox) - Ok folks, Luke is the proud owner of the first BFL Little Single ASIC off the line as of about an hour and a half ago. Since he's a paying customer and also a miner developer, we've shipped him the first Little Single since his order was one of the first ones in the queue from last year. More to follow as soon as we get the revised PCBs and the rest of the chips in. So we've officially shipped on March 31st, 2013. So this is not an April Fools joke.

There are people who would say otherwise and that they haven't shipped anything out. Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: lucif on April 01, 2013, 05:12:06 PM I also have ASIC

Stability seems somewhat questionable: http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1CdcYVP4T4hjHwt353pEnGHrigeDLvuvZL Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: breel on April 01, 2013, 07:25:43 PM It amazes me that noone seems to look at today's date when talking about things like that...

Quote [23:42] <a_meteorite> Luke-Jr: that's the Little SC I'm assuming [23:42] <Luke-Jr> a_meteorite: it's a defective board because I was impatient. [23:43] <a_meteorite> that would explain the HW errors [23:44] <a_meteorite> did you go to BFL HQ or was it shipped? assuming you can reveal that.. [23:44] <a_meteorite> I think you did go there at one point but I didn't think you stayed/went back [23:44] <a_meteorite> that was like... 2 weeks ago [23:49] <jzk> At this point I'm not sure he can even reveal his own existence [23:54] <Luke-Jr> a_meteorite: I've physically touched it, but I've left it at BFL for the time being. You can't claim on one hand that an item was shipped, and the on the other hand claim you left it at BFL. ~Bruno K~ Luke-Jr: has posted pictures of his BFL ASICs. http://regex.info/exif.cgi?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.butterflylabs.com%2Fattachment.php%3Fattachmentid%3D755%26amp%3Bd%3D1364793240 Basic Image Information Artist: Josh Date: March 31, 2013 11:53:12PM (timezone not specified) (34 minutes, 29 seconds ago, assuming image timezone of US Pacific) File: 680 × 895 JPEG 114,188 bytes (0.11 megabytes) Image compression: 94% Summarized: (1) Item was not shipped (2) Josh made the pictures April Fools' joke? Or just the usual lies from BFL/Josh ...? Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: Nachtwind on April 01, 2013, 09:38:51 PM So.. a company that lied time and again about their products told us they sent something to someone who lies time and again about the origins of his/and other peoples software and its capabilities.
Sure this is no aprils fools joke, but yet another step in this endless scam called "BFL asics".

Excluding USPS, for that's a given, which carrier was kind enough to be open on Easter Sunday late evening to pick up the parcel? I've already eliminated FedEx, DHL and Big Brown, therefore it only leaves out the ones I'm not aware of. To be clear... THERE IS NO FUCKING WAY THAT BFL SHIPPED ANYTHING ON EASTER SUNDAY Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: grue on April 02, 2013, 01:55:39 AM Quote BFL_Josh (Shoutbox) - Ok folks, Luke is the proud owner of the first BFL Little Single ASIC off the line as of about an hour and a half ago.

Therefore it was not actually the first......... So much for 'non preferential' treatment then.......... Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: Dalkore on April 02, 2013, 05:07:21 AM I would appreciate to see answers from Luke-Jr pertaining to these questions:

Title: Re: BFL Ships their First ASIC Post by: Gator-hex on April 02, 2013, 10:44:08 AM Having been an Eligius miner in the past, this is the last person I'd trust to tell me they have a working ASIC.
Is Luke_Jr still in the Butterfly Labs building after they paid to fly him over? Hardly a "delivered" product if it never left the building. Bitcoin bets should stay valid for not delivering in March! Maybe excuse for getting out of the promised Seppuku!!!! ;) Not to mention the thing seems to run at 179w/24.86GH/s not 30w/30Gh/s Still , better than nothing, hoping they are ready to ship the promised 400 units a day now. Probably should edit the web site to say you sell a 25GH/s product though. ::) |
