Awesome, I see the new units have arrived!!!
You let the cat out of the bag!  Yes, our new units have arrived and are hashing away with only a little bloodshed (those BFL cases are sharp)! We've also begun mining FTC with our GPU miner's CPU. The OP will eventually be updated showing our FeatherCoin wallet balance. That brings us to currently mining BTC/LTC/NMC/FTC/IXC/DVC. Very exciting! EDIT: This brings us to over 10MH/s per seat! Great news! Thanks for your ongoing effort! And still 5 more are expected to arrive, can't wait! Oh I remember the picture you took of a mostly empty room, how are things looking now?  Very cluttered. I got everything running, and for the most part our ASICs look nice and happy. The 5 remaining FPGAs waiting to be sent back are pretty much thrown around the room. I'll get it cleaned up after a shower and some rest. Perhaps tomorrow (or soon) I'll post some miner pr0n. |

We are now mining LTC and our wallet balance has been added to the OP as well as an updating screenshot from our LTC miner's BFGminer.  |

I've received tracking numbers for 5 of our 60GH/s miners from BFL. It won't be long now...
By chance did the tracking number list the estimated arrival date? Sorry - just a little anxious. The tracking shows that they are in my city, but the USPS man just left and I have no packages.  That means tomorrow will be the day! On a more positive note, our LTC miner is now running Linux and currently downloading the LTC blockchain. Soon we'll be adding a 5th currency to our holdings. |

someone reputable must be incharge of the Group Buy.
I'd be willing to run a group buy in the US if there was enough interest. I think I'd have to charge 2.15 BTC per coin with free shipping. If I'm reputable enough and there is interest, let me know. I've never ran a group buy before, might be fun. |

Sick! That's great news. Did you get a decent deal on some PSU's? Yes, and they arrived today. We're all set as soon as our BFL shipment arrives. |

If we're going to be mining LTC as well how will donations work? Will they only be in BTC?
Alt coins will be saved until further notice. There is a plan in the works that will eventually be developed into a way to redeem mined alt coins. However, that is several months off. As an update to our LTC Miner... It arrived and one of the 7970s was not functional while the other had overheating problems. The seller has agreed to take the cards back and send us 2 new 7970s. I'll let everyone know once it is mining away. |

If you have a Single Upgrade (trade-in) purchased anytime in June, you should consider sending it in so we are ready to ship your Single. I am trying to email those people now. I'll contact Jody to get the necessary shipping information tomorrow and send ours in. Sounds like next week is going to be very exciting for us. EDIT: I disconnected the FPGAs to be sent in for upgrades. I will be sending them in to BFL tomorrow (Friday). |

It seems that the Singles are not shipping with a power-brick according to this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236794.0 I'm not sure or this is an anomaly or what, but in any case it's news to me! OgNasty, were you aware of the need for several PSU's? I was aware that the first one shipped with no power brick. I'm still waiting until I get some kind of word from BFL about the situation. If we do need PSUs, I will run out and buy them or order them and get a good deal online if there's time. EDIT: Looks like early orders will indeed be shipping without power bricks. I'll start looking at PSU options. |

This is fairly typical with P2Pool actually.
Is the BFL ASIC having the same issues the FPGAs did with p2pool? The BFL ASIC doesn't seem to be having any problems with P2Pool. UPDATE:You can now see our mined alt coins (being saved indefinitely) on the OP. In addition, I have negotiated a very good deal to purchase a GPU mining rig next week so NASTY MINING can begin mining scrypt based coins as well. This will allow us to begin mining LTC to further diversify our operation.    I have also been made aware of BFL's Customer Appreciation Chip Credit Program and will be attempting to sell our credits to raise some more funds for our holdings. If anyone is interested in buying any BFL chip credits, feel free to PM me. EDIT: I received a ton of offers for our Chip Credits. I took the best one I received, which was for 6 BTC. I paid 8 BTC for our LTC mining rig (x2 7970s), so I think we did OK considering this was an unexpected gift from BFL. |

Rejects are over 10% today! Ouch.  This is fairly typical with P2Pool actually. It isn't such a big deal because we're competing against other P2Pool users for payouts that are experiencing the same high rejects due to how P2Pool works (adjusting difficulty to find a block every 10 seconds). Right now for example I'm showing that P2Pool as a whole is experiencing a 16% DOA rate on submitted shares while we are only seeing a 13% DOA rate, so we are actually above average and this is working to our advantage. This is most likely due to hosting our own P2Pool server on our local network. More info about how P2Pool works here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2Pool |

UPDATE:Bitcointalk user & BitFunder.com owner Ukyo has been kind enough to donate 1,000 shares of Graet.Loan to NASTY MINING! I can't thank him enough for this extremely generous action. I've decided to purchase an additional 2,020 shares, as Graet runs Ozcoin and I believe this is a safe and lucrative use of our savings. You can check to see exactly what holdings we have on BitFunder using the Public Asset Holdings List and searching for our address (1NASTYfxUpKPwin7b1KTBFjeeofrLSgXDJ). I will also keep the OP updated with any changes. I have full confidence with BitFunder securely holding a portion of our savings and have been very impressed with the features they offer, such as automatic reinvestment (which I have enabled). Thanks again to Ukyo & BitFunder.com!

The very first Single SC 60gh/s unit was shipped out on Tues 06/11/2013 during the 5 o'clock hour...There were maybe 8 Singles that had been built and tested while I was there, most of which did not have any problems getting into the 60gh range, even with un-binned chips, so no one should worry about getting a device with less than their ordered hashrate. I hear that 2 Single SC's shipped. BFL is shipping Single SCs. EDIT: No word on ours yet, but they did say they are shipping customer units and I hold the first customer order... So keep your fingers crossed. |

I just noticed this now, but, how is it that 2000+ new seats were added between 2013-04-26 and 2013-05-03?
2013-05-03 19:30:30 0.00027138 9608 234376 [transaction]
2013-04-26 19:22:10 0.00040435 7574 233291 [transaction]
There are 25,000 total seats and they will eventually all be receiving donations. They are being released to the market in a way that continues to increase the MH/s per seat as more equipment comes online in order to provide steady growth for existing seats. With the number of seats and ordered equipment, an increase to 24MH/s per seat is the current expectation. You can track our hashing power per seat on the OP, or by viewing the below image.
