the price may drop based on demand. To reach a much lower prices we have to reach a stretch goal. If we reach that we plan to add modules (options) for the same price.
The Bord features some stuff the 35$ board wouldn’t do.
For example you can Hotplug modules which means you can scale and upgrade / swap modules at any time.
Also the board features 3Gbps internally between nodes which is more than others do.
In order to cut down future module prices by removing the need to have internal Flash storage the Bord has microSD for each module slot.
So in the next step (again a stretch-goal) we can provide our own Core-Modules which are more cost effective as there is no need for internal storage.
About the delivery:
The Baords will be produced and shipped in waves.(early birds first) It’s a sort of reserve time we planned if the demand is exceeding our expectations. If it goes over the top we may let produce them also in Asia. Right now it is made in Germany.
We keep you updated. You may also like to join the discord to stay updated.
About cpu Mining you can also check out XBTX which offers on chain tokenization (assets) similar to Ravencoin but with the Verium Algorithm
Overall the Board is just the base for the modules we plan. All we need is Ram and CPU so why not putting 2 or 4 cpus on one module ?
Also we provide customs distributions and with quartex also a cloud os running on top of the Nodes which makes it more like a user friendly Desktop like experience utilizing the fact that you have a cluster of heterogeneous hardware.
For miners it is a breeze to be able to swap modules on the fly against new fresh hardware.
Just keep an eye 👁 out we keep you updated. Next week we show the production line Video / photos and you can see us as well.
