Anyone got a link to the mining stats? I can't figure it out from the screenshot.

You are highly impatient sir. I waited over 13 Months for my first BFL. You should still have an expected wait of 7-10 months before they are actually "Late"  LOL. Good one. Well, since they're still a long ways from shipping any Monarchs, the 7 month delay is still quite possible. |
|

Can you point out where there was a promise? No? Oops, you are a liar!
I mean, god forbid you post true information... that would actually paint BFL in a kinder light. No, it's better to post false information to keep the BFL hate going, no matter what the truth of the matter is.
Pathetic.
Your attempts at avoiding the "late" issue are pathetic. BFL is months late. Again. And again. And again. |

Let's be completely naive and ignore the past and just look at the numbers.
BFL, 230 GH/s for $4255 = $18.5/ghps
MBP, 200 GH/s for $3200 = $16/ghps
Why would anyone ever choose BFL?????????????????

Four H-boards will do 140 GH/s with mild overclocking (the two I already have are doing 70). I paid about BTC1.87 yesterday for them. Five (for 175 GH/s) would've been about BTC2.34. "1/3 cheaper" may have been a little bit of an overstatement, but Bitfury hardware is now cheaper.
No, it's not. You're trying to compare overclocked incomplete Bitfury systems with stock clocked complete Antminer systems. That is not a valid comparison. |

Do BitFury rigs overclock well? Is it reasonable to expect 500 GH? Are they reliable? I read a good number of horror stories on this thread from folks who had a lot of trouble getting all 16 boards to work correctly due to board wobble and poor connections. Does the SD card still get corrupted when the machine is powered off?
Do not expect more than 400. The systems are quite stable, but there is a lot of variance in each card's performance. |

Semiconductor process is only one variable. KNC's prior 28nm product was exceeded in power efficiency by some 55nm devices. The actual power performance is matters, not the lithography.
With all due respect, at the wall I'm not too sure they did. I tried to get to the bottom of that at the time of launch so there was a fair comparison and received a mixed bag of variable answers and little evidence to back up claims of sub 1W/Gh/s. The November boxes eat for sure, but the original October boxes were 1W/Gh/s at the wall. I even toyed with one at 0.85, they can be down clocked. I expect to see other manufacturers doing the same, it makes sense over the long term. gmaxwell is right. Bitfury systems regularly pull .9 at the wall for complete systems. And that's a 55nm chip!!! |

Hm, what's up with the massive jump in diff, is Cointerra and/or Hashfast shipping in large quantity? Does this qualify for releasing more jupiters/etc?
That was another, what, 26% jump? Get used to it. It's not going to stop any time soon. Dude the hashrate is about to level out for a bit not, continue growing like this for a while.
Quoted so I'll have something to laugh at after a couple more crazy adjustments. Remember back 3 months ago, how you said the hashrate was "about to level out"? ROFLMAO! You were sooooo wrong. |

2.4 BTC is an ok price, but are any more actually available at that price?
|
|
|

Can't wait to buy a kg of gold with 1 btc. I bet it wont be as long as many might think Quoting with the hopes of this coming true. |

I dropped by the HashFast booth at CES today. No hardware. Not even anyone staffing the booth. Did they even bother to show up?

frankly I would rather have them head down building my machine than chatting with you.
You think their hands are full "building" miners? LOL. "Building" consists of plugging completed boards into a PC case, of which there are a grand total of 2 confirmed builds in the past few months. My grandmother could "build" faster than that between shuffleboard sessions while her arthritis is acting up. |

This forum has become irrelevant due to the lack of moderation.
Says the guy spending $9,000 a week advertising here! That's half a million dollars a year on an "irrelevant" forum. 4 @ 2.25

X3 looks nice btw, one of the first bitcoin asic system designs that appears to make total sense (from cooling perspective).
I agree. Nice clean front-to-back airflow, no wasted space hampering air flow. Best design I've seen. |

We have our final specs for the Minion. Based on our library (we can only simulate the TT corner which is 0.85v @ 25C) and the power consumption is 0.6-0.65W/Ghash. We trust that underclocked and underpowered the Minion will achieve under 0.5W/ghash as promised.
"
So roughly 800 watts per TH/s total system power. I'd much rather have 2x 800 watt boxes/power supplies than a single 1600 watt box/power supply. |

strange business decisions. dave isn't selling much if any stock. AND while he's not selling anything the real value of the boards keeps dropping every week. the real prices will continue dropping so in the end he may have to liquidate his inventory at 100 per board where today he may get 300 for each one.
$300 sounds reasonable this week. How bout it Dave? Let them collect dust in the warehouse or sell them for $300? Their value sinks every day they sit unsold. |

they should have plenty of money now...
Oh, they have plenty of money for sure. They're just not going to give any of it back. |

I don't think you can compare Intel (et al.) CPUs with Bitcoin mining hardware. In the mining world, it's crucial to have your equipment up and running in the shortest possible time and to squeeze as much performance out of it as possible, as mining equipment becomes obsolete within months, usually. You actually don't need your equipment to work longer than, say, a year. But you want your Intel CPU to work longer than a year...
Exactly. 2013 was all about getting the gear up and running as fast as possible to maximize return in the first 3 months. 2014 will be about the same. Eventually, maybe 2015, miners will need to care about long lasting hardware. |

cypherdoc, will bitcoin stagnate in 2014 ? What do you think, another 5,xxx% of growth ?

We are nothing close to a scam site, we are registered to do business legally, with corporation formed, legal paperwork including business license etc.
Excellent. Which states are you incorporated in? You say you're located in NY, yet the state of NY has no record of "Vortech Labs Inc." http://www.dos.ny.gov/corps/bus_entity_search.html |
