Title: Need asic
Post by: Breaksbassbleeps on June 15, 2014, 11:27:51 PM
Hi everyone.
I'm new to mining and trying to get hold of a Bitfury twin usb asic.
Could anyone recommend a seller who's prices are competitive like eyeboot.com (no stock) and in the UK or ship to the UK?
Thank you.

I'm guessing you're referring to the Twin Chip Fury (at eyeboot: http://www.eyeboot.com/twin-bitfury-usb-miner , out of stock as you mentioned).  You can still find some on e-bay or possibly a private seller on these forums.

There are some alternatives, but stock is an issue for most of them.
NanoFury II - page states there's a few left, but actual store front-end says out of stock: http://moonlightminer.com/
TwinFury: You'll have to google around, none of my links point to active sellers.
Bi•Fury - still in stock, but is fairly expensive (all StickMiners are, relatively speaking, but compared to other dual-chip ones that are/were for sale), out of Poland: http://cryptostore.io/?product=bi%E2%80%A2fury-55-ghs-usb-miner

Other alternatives may be:
hex•fury - uses 6 chips, rather than 2, from the UK: https://www.asicrunner.com/HexFury--11GH-USB-Stick-Miner_p_9.html
NanoFury 6 - same sort of thing, available sometime this week: http://moonlightminer.com/

And of course single-chip solutions, of which I'll just mention the YellowJacket, as that's also available from the same UK store as the hex•fury: http://www.asicrunner.com/Yellowjacket--2Gh-USB-Stick-Miner_p_8.html

You can check the thread in my sig for some other options (might also be worth reading through the ROI section), but finding active commercial sellers for these things is easier said than done.  Push comes to shove, post a 'WTB' in the Marketplace forum area (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=75.0)

Thanks for the reply.
I'm interested in the nano fury twins at moonlightminers. They're bowl sold out. Anyone know how to contact them as I can't find an email address on their site.
Thanks

Try posting in the NanoFury II topic - you'll also find the user behind that site there, Swimmer63:

@Breaksbassbleeps I don't think you posted in that thread, so if you missed it - looks like a few are back in stock: http://moonlightminer.com/

( And the NF6 is now also available. )
