I first posted this on reddit, but It got no where, So I decided to post this here to help out my friend and the community in general. My friend which is also my coworker is willing to start with Bitcoin for sometime now, I convinced him about bitcoin and I suggested that the best way to start is with helping the community, and this can be done by accepting Bitcoin for his service, he is a really enthusiastic musician and he also design and build top custom amplification prototypes which are built with passion and love. So basically we are not looking at a mass production here, there will be only limited quantities as he does this only on his spare time as a hobby. http://www.howlinamps.com/you can also see the demonstration of the devices on his youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheMcinku?feature=watchif there are any musicians here or anyone else interested and would like to purchase these devices with Bitcoin just hit the contact and let him know, he might add bitpay if there will be allot of interest, meanwhile you can arrange to buy a device and use Bitcoin directly, you can also use escrow through Bitcointalk from the trusted Escrow list. Please Spread the word.    |

US companies seems to suck...bitmine is about to ship there goes all our profit making  When I first started mining back in late 2009 with my Xilinx LX240's, I would have been lucky to trade 10K Bitcoins for a slice of pizza I'm 100% sure you were not mining with Xilinx in late 2009 Sorry mate, anyone from my graduating class can implement SHA-2 algorithms on an FPGA; it is not exactly what I would call challenging. My background is in Electrical/Electronics Engineering and Computer Science, but my top hobbies include research in Number Theory and Cryptography.

Now, only if you can figure out Satoshi Nakamoto's true identity, then I will be impressed. so next you will claim that you are Satoshi ? I wouldn't be surprised, now move on we saw your kind before.... |

US companies seems to suck...bitmine is about to ship there goes all our profit making bitmine got their chips after hashfast but before cointerra. they should've delivered units by now. think they got their chips a month before cointerra - at least they taped out a month or two before cointerra. its also unknown how well their box works. am eager to hear... (might order some myself if it delivers) i mentioned this months ago but i would love to hear news on whether their 3,000 watt power supply will deliver all 3,000 watts when run on a single US power circuit (120 volt) as that seems like a lot to expect out of a US power outlet, and i worry that the power supply might max out at 1800 watts when used in the US. -- Jez they had sample chips if this is what you meant but they got their production chips just the day before yesterday. |

40nm 0.2J/GH to 0.4J/GH how does that sound? of course they still need to confirm this news with a working chip...
Of course  The 0.2-0.4J/GH looks impressive (still a wide range, however), now that's only one variable. Availability (out of the hands of friedcat) and ultimately price per GHS will be the other significant parameter for the market. I sold off my AM shares before the downfall of the securities game in 2013 but I'm considering getting back in for sure. Anyway, at the current stage of the mining game BitFury is still a safe bet at 1J/GH (vs 2 for the oversold IMHO Antminer) I agree, for now nothings beats Bitfury for sure even the supposed 28nm chips. but I am sure that FC will beat all of them, I didn't sell my shares, I still have them, interesting fact is that in havelockinvestment.com the price already rising back, it is now at 0.625BTC/share and there is no volume to keep it from going even higher, you can just imagine the dividends from the mining and selling of these chips  |

I heard a rumor there would be a Bitfury 2 chip end of Feb. At 1W per chip the current generation outperforms Antminer with half the power, it's the same as KnC Miner who "only" promised 30% less W/H in their 20 nm design... when their 28 nm is about the same as BitFury. Do we have a CoinTerra/Bitmine killer? yes asicminer will basically kill all outstanding chips with their new Gen3 chip that will come out March, 40nm 0.2J/GH to 0.4J/GH how does that sound? of course they still need to confirm this news with a working chip... |

So the fcc/ul approvals are in? Why aren't we hearing from anyone else about shipping? My order just shows "processing" as it has for months.
I am looking at both news updates, and I cant find a single word about the approved Certifications, which makes me wonder how that customer walked out with his miner as they claim (and as he claim). so I will quote their update which you cant find on their news page but you can still acces throug reddit from the AMA thread So this is what the miner wrote, and BTW no picture no videos to prove that he really have the miner: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1webkm/i_am_the_guy_who_got_the_first_cointerra_miner_ama/I am the guy who got the first Cointerra miner AMA. submitted 2 days ago* by bitscavenger I will be online for about an hour an a half if anyone wants to chat. Here is their press release: http://cointerra.com/pr-cointerra-begins-shipment-terraminer-iv-worlds-fastest-bitcoin-miner/Here are some basics. I was a "December" batch customer. The machine is secure in a server room. Home is not a good place to run this IMO. I am mining on Eligius but I will monitor that in case their share gets too big. I do not know anyone from Cointerra personally. I was chosen to be customer 1 because I live in Austin and I am active in the local bitcoin community (is what they told me). I have certainly met a lot of Cointerra people since a week ago and I really like everyone I met. I am the guy doing the Numisalis coin. I am wearing that shirt in the picture. I still really believe in it and encourage contributions to the Indiegogo campaign. Fire away! edit: Stats! The miners typically run at ~1.7TH/s. I have seen it jump to 2TH/s and have seen it drop to 1.55TH/s but those speeds are not sustained. There are 2 power supplies. Each pulls 1kW pretty much on the nose. Fans run at full speed all the time right now. I have been told a not-yet-scheduled firmware upgrade will address that as well as other power and speed improvements. I can only go on what I see right now though. both updates doesn't mention anything about shipping time neither if any other order being shipped and nothing about the certification. http://cointerra.com/pr-cointerra-begins-shipment-terraminer-iv-worlds-fastest-bitcoin-miner/http://cointerra.com/update-production-news-janfeb-batch-customer-offer/Disclaimer: I am not a direct customer, I am an investor in Peta-mine, which is based of Cointerra and Bitmine hardware, and they both failed to deliver in time which put us all in a bad position. |

You shouldn't be worried if you don't do illegal activities but if you do, then it doesn't matter whether you used bitcoin or anything else, they will come after you, and it doesn't matter how long it will take them, you may feel safe if it takes long thinking that everybody forgot about it or ignored it, but you are mistaking, justice will be served no matter how long it takes.
and people who uses Bitcoin for illegal activities must be really dumb thinking Bitcoin offer 100 anonymity.... and they must be even dumber if they still think that after the Silk road and all the latest arrests.
again, Bitcoin doesn't not offer anonymity, but offer a certain or better privacy than classic old fashion systems.

 Whoever is doing that is loosing money, a buy then a sell and it keeps getting lower,I would guess someone is pointed his bot trying to hurt the exchange by showing " faking volume case" to kill it maybe ? they would be so stupid if they want to fake their volume this way, this is not and insider job |

BTCChina volume is 17800 now, are we looking at the next boom ? mmmm lets watch and see EDIT: 18100 while typing hahaha EDIT2: 18500 WTF EDIT3: it is just going crazy, I wont keep with numbers... Itīs the same coins goin back and forth 95 buy 95 sell 96 buy 96 sell 76 77 ... I wonder if that volume might be fake..., theyīre actin even worse than Huobi now, itīs so obvious, they donīt even try to hide it anymore. mmmm there is something interesting there, I dont know what to think though, I dont want to jump to assumptions, lets watch closely for some time... |

Good news Guys, cointerra started production and also Bitmine recieved chips yesterday and started production, our biggest delivery will be from Bitmine which will be faster as they are from Switzerland
share Price will skyrocket soon, happy investing everyone Dear all, Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, I see that in the meantime some users lost the control which is fully understandable given the pressure, but we can assure you that we had no lot of chips that we could mine with earlier than yesterday other than a few hundred samples. Also, we have always received any visitor that wanted to come up here and meet us, we've literally met hundreds of customers over the last months so you can ask one of them if we're real or scam, or you can come to see for yourself too! So, after a relatively long time waiting for the first production lot of CoinCraft A1 chips, yesterday they've hit our warehouse and we've finally started the production of the CoinCraft Desk products. It took a huge effort from our engineering team, but we've finally been able to reach our promised hashing rates on the series of CoinCraft units. Several prototype runs of the boards have been necessary, along with fine tuning and optimizations (especially on the power supply blocks and cooling) carried out by highly specialized engineers, but at the end we've finally made it to reach the required hashing power of 200 GH/s at nominal on our hashing units for the CoinCraft Desk device! Final production stage has now started, meanwhile the capacity of our assembly facility has been increased by 200% from our original plans to cope up with the accumulated delays, below you'll find some eye candy pictures to see how big we're moving forward. The customer protection plan will trigger for all order placed with delivery in December 2013 and January 2014, while February and later orders shouldn't be affected and should be shipped as scheduled. If you've chosen a shipping option, your order will change from "Processing" to "Complete" along with the tracking number for express shipments, but if you've chosen the pickup option, you will be further contacted by our support staff to arrange pickup dates and details. A big thank you goes to all of our loyal customers that have had patience during this long waiting period! Also, as you can see from the other topic on this forum, we've been widely supporting the community and have shipped out hundreds of chip samples. Additionally, quite a few work has been going on with different manufacturers that now have already other miner designs working on our A1 chips, so many interesting things are going to come up in the near future! Here are a few pictures of the production:  An idea of what we mean by a LOT of chips!  Partially assembled cases go into the next stage of assembly where hash units are mounted and tested before being packaged and shipped to you.  Six production lines on two daily shifts is the way to recover from a delay very, very fast!  Did you mention power supplies? Each box is an extremely powerful 3000W power supply for the CoinCraft Rigs.

thank you so much giorgio, you really lifted a huge amount of pressure off me, I am not a direct customer of yours but I invested in Cryptx operation PETA-Mine which will mostly use your hardware, now I can sleep without worries.

the good news is the volume is slightly starting to go up on BTCChina, hopefuly that Huobi silly manipulation will die

Please post pictures of yourselves. Thanks Edit: Also he's been admittedly diagnosed with a bipolar disorder.
Does that make you feel kinda strong if you post this??? you wont achieve anything by licking his balls, and for sure you are new here, I didn't make fun of his look neither I give a fuck, but readt his posts then look at that pictures go back and read the posts again then look back at that picture repeat few times then tell me if you understood what I meant So do you dare to post a picture or not? mmmm why do you need my Pic ? |
