Title: Avalon chips produced in June 2013: Accurate (est) 386,100 Post by: Otago on July 20, 2013, 05:49:49 AM After reviewing The Genesis Block article (http://thegenesisblock.com/latest-shipment-of-avalon-asics-could-increase-network-hashrate-by-500/) I have been able to work out total number of chips likely to have been ordered.
I Used the photographs released by Fujian Yan Tan, a retailer of Avalon ASIC boards. Plus a photo of an Avalon tray. Along with the shipping tracking details (http://www.track-shipments.com/track-trace.aspx?pref=AWB&awbno=87150508076). 135 boxes in 24 outer shipping boxes with 11 trays per box. Each tray 10 x 26 chips = 386,100 Shipment weight is 853kg making outer 24 boxes 35.5kg, inner boxes 4kg & tray approx 0.5kg. Hashing power: Chips support 282MH/s to say 450MH/s giving range of 108,880GH/s to 173,745GH/s total Donations (1MdvZGoGBMVZShaoZhgdYBfYrpPicJ8RaW) appreciated as it took a lot of detective work & analysis to end up with this seemingly simple number. This information takes away the speculation the Bitcoin Network Hashrate could rise by 500% previously discussed in some news articles & postings.
