You know, someone could probably build the app to do this in C, targeting Linux as the OS, using serial as the interface, and it would probably run on gobs of hardware that's already out there for nearly free. People could root their old 2nd generation iPod or whatever, and use it as a transaction verifier and be able to get into it for zero hardware cost (or pick one up on eBay).
Sure, but that's a nerd thing. We are targeting grandma's here. @op, if you have nothing to offer but a cupple of ideas you better be good at organizing everything and being happy even with a little share. Good luck! |

Specifically, I need: - A businessman, who will keep track of orders, outsourcing production, making bulletpoins, etc.
- An electrical engineer, who can design a PCB with the needed components.
- A programmer, who can help me in making the PC UI, the µc firmware, auditing etc.
Why do they need you? He is Jobs reincarnated. Seriously, i think he is taking the business risk (eg, risk of losing everything invested into this if this dosen't work too well). |

Some time ago I bought photographic material from China and didn't had to pay anything. Maybe it was because they send it has a gift...
Most probably, yes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_value_added_taxAs you can see you pay 23% in VAT; not 35%. There might be some clearance taxes too. |

hi, does anyone know if there is any company selling asic in Europe? It seems that every business is located in the US... The problem is that taxes for importing products from US is very high. I think china is cheaper so it could be an alternative... But I can't find any sellers there also. Thanks  You pay the import taxes to your state, it dosent change if the thing comes from Russia china or the states, it's always the 20%. If it's a EU supplier no import taxes are due in the UK. An eu suppliers has to pay taxes on his imports outside the Europe. Either way, you pay taxes on imports. It dosent matter if its another one paying them for you and charging you an extra. --- You pay the same rate from USA and china. If the good sent from china are with a fake invoice that allows you not to pay the import taxes (that are not at 35%, what state are you from?), you are commuting a crime. |

Because they're in transit. The announcement was made after our purchase. Once the machines are fully installed, we'll be happy to flood you with photos and assembly videos let's see Let's see indeed. If they were purchased on Wednesday the 3rd, they ought to be arriving around Monday the 8th if they ship from within the US. I can't imagine BFL waiting for slow international shipping. They are on a schedule after all. I'll wager 5 BTC that no such photos show up any time next week (thru the 13th) that are not obvious fakes or highly questionable. Certainly none that provide a solid assurance that BFL is in fact in possession of and operating or setting up these machines for operation. (Post in the thread if you wanna take the other side of this wager.) I accept your bet. Someone quote please. To be clear, I am betting 5 BTC that BFL posts pictures of their new equipment before 10/13/2012. Quoted. |

I too work with computers.
Why don't you make a pool in the first post?

Bottom of the first page for me. Indeed they are. Love it or hate it but bitcointalk does deserve a spot on the first page of search results for "bitcoin". Too bad that G was driven insane recently by SEO guys. According to SEO people advising me the latest iteration of G algo makes no sense whatsoever, quality of SERP's is very bad. G basically brings random low quality websites on top while burying hiqh quality authority websites. G reportedly slowly comes back to its senses after the last update but not by much so far. Too bad that they have sacrificed search results relevance in favor of hell knows what.
One suggestion I heard is that they make more money on ads by having worse search results quality and thus pushing people to click on paid ads (that are suddenly more relevant than natural search) and by making people click on pages 2 3 4 etc... in search of something relevant.
I've noticed that Google's quality has declined over the past couple of years. From time to time I try to use a different search engine, but they all seem worse than Google. Maybe searching has just become more difficult. The web is simply more filled with spam websites, aggregators, etc. I always have top quality results from my searches. |

I get it near the top of page 3  Google lies to everyone. Indeed they are. Love it or hate it but bitcointalk does deserve a spot on the first page of search results for "bitcoin".

Yes, them providing low quality result is the reason everyone use them, you are correct. Belive me, you are wrong on ALL THE LINE. |

If you want my suggestion, don't lose your time asking for a name on a forum. Keep thinking about the design of the thing and the name will come out by its own with a bit of time.

I gave a bad idea to a community of scammer then.
|
|
|
|
I really love this idea! I wanted to do one myself, lol How much do you think you will need to finance this? I think that you should start thinking into it seriously, share the idea and the code with the community, project a solid product build it and do some profit! |

19 pieces are avaible now.
Oh that is very tricky.
I registered a few days ago at shop.avalon-asics.com. But there are no asics avaible.
They are avaible at store.avalon-asics.com now.
There I have to register again.
It's not store.avalon-asic s.com or shop.avalon-asic s.com, it's store.avalon-asic.com. Now that's a great way to stole a lot of money! Did anyone fall into it? |

You are correct.
However that dosent mean that I'm wrong, nor that being wrong will make me change my attitude against this community

Either
1) BFL is gonna ship soon or
2) it's all fabricated
I'm undecided.
I don't understand how you fabricate that. Is there any way that it isn't real hash power? Or are my calculations wrong? It is real hash power, but it could be fabricated by using a large gpu/fpga farm or services such as GPUMAX. Why would someone pay to redirect GPUMAX to a testnet where they'll get no return? To prove everyone that ASIC is right there, by having someone noticing it and posting it on the forum. If that was so the company would want to take ownership or have that poster claim ownership. There is none of that here. No, the company has no interest in doing so. There already are only a few companies, only one of those is worried about making their clients sure that they didn't gave money to a scammer. |

Have you tried a virtual cloud server?
For example a windows server would allow you to use remote desktop.
You can then run your apps from the server but view them as they are running on your local.
I've heard of this.. Interesting. Any Virtual Cloud Server providers on these forums? Get a VPS and not that marketing bs you are looking for. |

You just include the preorder units in your calculation. However, these companies will certainly manufacture extra units for themselves to mine, since the marginal manufacturing cost for ASIC is very low. The difficulty will go up to 1000TH/s or 1PH/s easily
Didn't tough about this. Another reason to avoid a preorder, even if i'm constantly tempted. First, I don't think manufacturers will be mining, or at least at a significant level. Why shouldn't they? They would only harm the future earning, not their current ones (not the preorders). |
