Seems like I am getting 3.5% Dupe shares on stratum? Any ideas?
Yeah I'm seeing some issues like that too. Some stats after 3.5 hours: Speed 5,072.51 MH/s - Accepted 14109 (99.19%) - 15 Stale / 99 Dupe I am testing the Windows client and find that adding some username/password systems will not work. When I use a miner / password combo that works on another system then all works well. I am giving 1 miner per gpu on system. Also I notice the submitted shares on the webpage not updating. If you try to connect to the new pool before a worker was made/renamed, it will never "re-authorize" to see if you eventually made that worker. This will be changed later on, though it's not high on the list since workers should have been made -before- trying to connect with them. The submitted shares update on the web page if you go back to the https://www.btcguild.com/stratum_beta.php page. They update roughly every 50 seconds at the moment (will be every 10 seconds after the next restart). Yes I am using the workers that were previously made |

Some stats after 3.5 hours: Speed 5,072.51 MH/s - Accepted 14109 (99.19%) - 15 Stale / 99 Dupe I am testing the Windows proxy and find that pointing a new system at existing workers (that has already been on the list) at the proxy systems will not connect. However when I use a miner / password combo that is working on another system then "new" system starts crunching away. Presently I am using 1 miner account per gpu on a given system. I notice that submitted shares on the online webpage not updating with submitted shares. Edited: for clarification |

cablepair, can you answer my question? If you say that you don't want to, that's fine for me (I will not ask again), but please either answer or say you don't want to.
(You can also answer via PM, I'll keep it to myself, if that's worth anything to you)
I'd like to know the answer too please. Regards, M The answer is simple. I never claimed to have a single chip that could do 27Gh/s, this is achieved through multiple hashing cores. Also some more updates .... in case you did not already know this - Manufacture of these Cell ASICS is already underway We are working on the finishing touches of our board design and plan to produce a very small batch of release candidate boards to send to the following developers, some of which are currently employed through us and others who are just receiving units to help bring a wide spectrum of mining software support. bASIC Development Team: Luke-JR (Firmware/ Mining Software) TheSeven (Hardware Testing / Mining Software) Kano (mining software) Ckvolias (mining software) when the firmware and mining software is ready to go - we will move on to pcb fab, board assembly and last but certainly not least -shipping to customers... Also I am happy to report that we are working out a deal with one of our competitors to supply these asic chips to them at a reasonable price to them , so that they may use in their own mining unit designs which strengthens the network and the market. Bravo! |

Credit card databases are stolen all the time. Almost as often as Bitcoin wallets. How would a website with SSL certificate help in this case? Not sure if this helps. SSL Certificate Authentication. Strong Secure Sockets Layer Https Encryption for Network Security helps secure communications between two parties, by not having the details/traffic broadcast in clear text. It also helps to identify that the customers/user are doing business with the expected company at their website. But as far as Credit Card information being stolen, With Internet order businesses, make it a policy to never have the full Credit Card Number - Just the last 4 in any database or document. Use a credit card that will give you peace of mind service. http://www.mastercard.com/us/company/en/corporategiving/peace_of_mind.htmlAlso Ship Only to the Billing Address Particularly for Internet or mail order businesses, make it a policy to ship only to the customer's billing address that matches what is on file with the issuer of the credit card. Fraudulent card users will illegally obtain a consumer's credit card and billing address and then specify to ship to a different address. If there is a discrepancy contact the consumer and ask to provide some additional verification or identification to complete the transaction. |

Can I get a red one?
What interests me is have the colours represent the status of the device. Silver or Blue when its not crunching, Red when its crunching, and Black when its not plugged in or lost power  LED's FTW <---- makes managing an group of these fairly easy. Example of ASUS Radeon HD 5870 Matrix "LOAD LED" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaUoj3s8kDw&feature=related |

The internal PSU bit on the website was a mistake. It's since been corrected. It will be an external PSU.
Any details on PSU size/voltage/etc? 1.21 Gigawatts! At 0.25V, of course. I'm set!  Haap's array can beam up to 3.6 megawatts of energy into the sky. |

I want to address the current issue of people purchasing others place in line, as it were, for pre-orders for BFL equipment.
Let me say up front that we don't have a problem with this. However, we also can not be responsible if you get scammed, so you must be cautious and do your due diligence when purchasing someone elses place in line.
What BFL will do is confirm that a person has an order if you provide us with the persons name and their order number. Beyond that, we are not a broker of places in line and as such, we can't change names on orders or anything like that (it would be an accounting nightmare). We will simply confirm that the person has an order and whether or not what you think you're buying is what they actually have.
That said, please make sure you verify that the person you are dealing with is honest and that they have a legitimate order. I would also recommend that you make the details of your order sales/purchasing public on the forums, so that there is some sort of record of it.
We can not help you if you get scammed, though.
That's a shame. It's amazing how unhelpful every website has been in tracking down someone who has scammed me. I would of thought the Bitcoin Community would have wanted to send a message that if you scam one of us, we will track you down and do everything in our power to correct the injustice that has been bestowed upon a member. Problem is that what proof is there that you may have been scammed? What if the issue at hand is that the person that claims to have been scammed is in fact the scammer themselves. I get what you are saying, but I think there is more than enough evidence https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=106199.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=102351.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=106095.0 in these three posts. Hypothetically let's say I found information about an order that was placed and then claim that the order is mine and that I wish to sell it to the highest bidder. To avoid being scammed in this nature I would as a potential buyer ask to verify the order. By getting BFL first to verify the seller's claim on an active paid in full order. You can then confirm that they are indeed the person holding the order by having BFL send both you and the seller cc emails. Now you can both reply with your own confirmation information. At this stage of the game you are dealing with "real names" and "real contact information". This way the seller and buyer are reasured by BFL's involvment that all parties are invoilved in this tranaction. And lastly always do everything in your power to not be scammed by the man in the middle fraud. |

Huh? Making the info public seems like a bad idea; it makes it easier for scammers to impersonate persons in line by being able to give legitimate order # and info. That's the same reason why I think the BFL "wait list" threads give too much info, eg. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=89685.0There are questions that only the original purchaser should know. Unless they post those details public. Payment method, Real Name, Shipping Address, even Contact information should remain private. |

WTH? Did everyone decide it was time to go all in again after selling above $12?
It's the Romney tax return hoax in the mainstream news. Srsly? google "romney bitcoin" |

(last send transaction was 8/17/2012).
One set of 100,000 was broken into a 60k BTC branch and a 40 BTC branch: https://blockchain.info/address/1Hcs1e7iaMp1gvm5mypZsqVa6ncpcfiCcmThe 40k Branch, first spinoff: https://blockchain.info/address/1K7KkP3mCsZUEDT7MuQqDpUgLgUbeLzLCASecond spinoff: https://blockchain.info/address/18Hs8cqQXkz8r2yBMLyFgYdCf7oj343w7BThird: https://blockchain.info/address/1DASVnie9amHLM7vgiiLTxYEefzx63XTmVFourth: https://blockchain.info/address/192AgengM4FGGuDV8g6giFMWXhrzeGqTXrGet the idea yet? Now, move coin into Silk Road and immediately back out. Then look at where your "payment" comes from, go up and down the chain three or four links to get the idea of what is paying you. It's the same payout mechanism, it just rolls around and spits out money. If you bother to take the time to go through the blockchain you'll be able to confirm this is likely Silk Road's money. Some of it coalesces back into large wallets again, some of it does not. It's a great free mixing service, if that's what you truly want out of Silk Road. Given their clientele, I assume that service is necessary, but not what they are coming there for. It may well end up being that -- just like its cash counterpart having traces of crack -- nearly every Bitcoin will someday have traces back to a Silk Road address in the future. I'm not sure every Bitcoiner will care, but you should ought to know this for the implications it may have. I know of 5000 BTC that will never ever be traced back to silk road.  |

Whoa, finally, exactly what I've been waiting for! A competitor in the ASIC market! I'm so excited! 1 year warranty, open source, good price point and estimated speed. I'm glad I stayed away from that other company with their poor business practices of demanding the full price of the product months in advance of delivery with no guarantee how the finished product will perform. Now I can place an order for a bunch of these... oh. You want all my money now? For delivery in Nov/Dec? Hmm, nothing different here after all.
All sarcasm aside, can we please not make this the norm for bitcoin hardware? I could completely understand a 10-20% deposit fee to make sure your customers are serious. Requiring full payment in advance to me screams one of two things:
1) You're not confident in your ability to design a working product, so you'd rather risk customer's money than your own. I don't like other people gambling with my money.
2) You're greedy, and want to take my money now so you can sit on the interest and milk everything you can from your customers.
To be honest I don't know which of these options I find more repulsive, but I can't think of another legitimate reason to require full payment in advance. I just wish someone would get a company going that I can actually respect, so that I can get into the ASIC game. But I will quit mining before I hand my money off to someone for something that they haven't made yet. I just wish more people weren't blinded by greed, throwing money at anyone who promises them a magic money box sometime in the future.
Because of development costs I can understand the need to progress bill full payment in order to keep liquidity flowing. This way they can focus on getting the product out rather then dealing with the administration costs (TIME) of collecting from potential customers. Lets continue the spirit of speculation, say you pay 20% of the cost with BTC at $10 Later your ordered "product" ships however the market rate for BTC drops to lets say $6.4. That BTC you set aside to pay is not adequate to fill the order. |

I hope they arent gonna be that crappy white color like your fpgas lol

Seems like you may have ordered as a guest. |

ASIC PRE-orders  What this have to do with btc price? Less BTC in the hands of speculators. For instance. This past weekend https://www.cavirtex.com/ exchange had low volume at 9.9 to 10 range. That is if you wanted to pick up 200 btc it would take you a bit of time and don't forget the gamble of price fluctuations until you made your purchase. However had you kept your BTC and just use it to purchase hardware then you would not be making any volume movements on the exchanges. More BTC being spent for goods gives more support to use BTC for international transactions. |

This looks promising. Is it available now? and how long does it take to ship? Warranty?
Its a pre-order for November/December shipping dates. 1 Year warranty. |

Congratulations. Awesome news. Well done on the price point.  Price point yes, don't forget the 1 year warranty. Depending on the CC you use when paying. MC/VISA increases the manufacturers warranty by 1 year. |

yes it does, obviously you have been watching my 24 hour countdown and need to refresh your cache
the redirect has been working since about 2pm EST
for help refreshing your cache I would check youtube for an instructional video
btw: your welcome for my technical help
I'm not sure it's web development best practice to make your users clear their cache but thanks for the assistance. Now back to the topic at hand. It's seems that Tom has made a claim that they have an actual prototype. 27Gh/s is not an estimate its based on real testing of a real prototype
and again we are using very basic software at this point, the speed is likely to increase once my software guys get to work on the firmware and mining software
Tom, please provide a video of the prototype working on a pool. Thanks, gigavps I wish you asked Trendon for a video before letting him rip off the whole community. Karma is a bitch. Created: 2012/09/04 06:17:45 GMT Order Number: 298 Order Amount: 1099.99 USD = 107.1426 BTC Bitcoins Paid: 107.1500 BTC Created: 2012/09/04 08:21:53 GMT Order Number: 301 Order Amount: 1099.99 USD = 106.7993 BTC Bitcoins Paid: 106.8000 BTC Just helping out. |
