Title: Alpha Technologies Investigation Thread - Bounty? Post by: DoctorG on January 26, 2014, 05:56:51 AM Im willing to spend some time investigating this company.
Anyone willing to contribute funds to my subways, macdonalds, beer and bus fair? They are a short bus ride or 30 mins walk from me, I can hang around, take a few photos etc. Perhaps if your nice enough to keep me in coffee, haribo, beer, MaccyD's and Benson and Hedges it could be my new full time job!

The guys that own the design do not seem to know what they are doing. My guess is they bought koolio's design (as he confirmed selling the IP rights to a UK buyer) and are funding the development through preorders.
These guys are trying to make a big leap on preorder money. They are not anticipating the high rate of fabrication failures at the scale they are developing ASIC chips. I expect a lot of delays and cost over runs. This is butterfly labs all over again. Title: Re: Alpha Technologies Investigation Thread - Bounty? Post by: anderl on January 26, 2014, 06:31:22 AM post your BTC/LTC/altcoin address and I'll send you a few. I'll send more if you can provide video or audio interviews/conversations/walkthrus.

How far down the road will their products become a real threat to those who have invested in GPU platforms for mining?
