At least BA is ahead of BFL, I would have thought that the Imperial Monarch would have landed by now.

How much value would having flappy bird pre-installed on your miner add?

Does the X3 sub-unit also use the Lucky Golden Rabbit brand PSU?

Deleted posts? lol I've only had about two weeks worth of posts removed. Each and every one of them worthy of deletion.
But I've been posting for six months since I got that congratulations you've been scammed email in January.
Time to put in some elbow grease boys, only five and a half months of re-hashing this thread to go!

Matt,
How are the X3s coming along?
The sands of time continue to flow! Right now the two X3 sub-units are worth $3k together. We need 100% in additional hardware to somehow break even.

Are we really looking at September? Could production capacity be their biggest lie yet? So-far we have X1 customers with order numbers less than 200 asking where's the beef.
|
|
|
July ends on Thursday, this also falls on the customary weekly update day. So-far only one reseller has reported receiving a single X3 sub-unit.

Cryptocurrency is something from science fiction that's come to pass and it's got us all betting on the future. Our bet of 2Th/s on February 24th was a good bet; 20 imaginary Bitcoins and counting. Times this by all the thousands of orders and oh-my that's enough imaginary Bitcoins to make MK smile.
I can't help but think that all the original X3 hash boards got hooked up to the controllers and PSUs from the bitfury farm they sold off and have mined many of those imaginary Bitcoins into reality.
Does the current X3 use a revised hash board?

I suspect matt will be bringing back suitcases full of miners this time. The X3 hour glass still has a few grains of sand in it. We can all pray for a BTC market miracle. Maybe alex can do the funny hand shake and play kissy kissy with the guys at opec.

One week left in this month... looks like the delay train has plenty of momentum left in it.
September delivery anybody?

A few pages back a response I received asked why would they put the effort into liquid immersion cooling.
a. Higher density of hash boards.
b. More efficient cooling.
c. Higher overclocking potential.
d. After months of heavy use they're placed in a dishwasher and come out looking like new. None of that baked in crap you can't scrub off that says used goods.

Can the voltage to the ASIC be changed? Probably not enough volts for 1200MHz.

Update: 22st of July 2014 ... 5. 90% devaluation in product due to an unreasonable delay. ...
Not necessarily disagreeing with you, but this one needs quantifying. Are you talking £/$ value, or effectiveness of each G:Diff. For instance per X1, I imagine you could resell each unit on feebay for ~$100, which is ~1/4 of its R(idiculous)RRP of $415. However, the diff is now 554% higher than it was in mid Feb, when these should have shipped, so they're only 1/6 as effective per GH/s. Feb 17 2014 - 3,129,573,175 Jul 12 2014 - 17,336,316,979 ..at least having worked that out, I can now see where their faulty logic lies in offering an exchange for 6x bare chips per X1. Unfortunately that offer ignores the fact that they simply failed to deliver a working product to the timescale as advertised. Even in delivering a closer-to-useful hash rate, this is not in the form of a finished usable product and involves significant additional cost to the end user, including the extra kw/h's of electricity to obtain the same mining reward has should have been provided if the equipment was delivered on schedule. Black Arrow Software and their English owner Alex(?), you've let us down in your management of this fiasco. At the end of February two X1 units (200Gh/s) mined ~$30 USD a day. Today two X3 sub-units (2Th/s) will mine ~$30 USD a day. That's where I get 90% devaluation as two X1s cost about $600 and an X3 cost about $6000.

I've got Linux installed on my Samsung S2 with X windows over VNC. Is this what BA is doing? lol

The X3 sub-unit at 1.1Th/s has an in-hand market value of $1500 USD. This is a very generous valuation as it's at least a 4 month RIO period at best.
The numbers don't add up any which-way for customers.

Update: 22st of July 2014 1. Batch 1 & 2 shipping:
X1 -- now shipping to re-sellers and a few direct customers. X3 -- now shipping to re-sellers and a few direct customers.
2. Refunds refused.
3. Shipping is stated to be complete by the end of the month.
4. BTC20 in lost revenue per X3 due to a disingenuous shipping date.
5. 90% devaluation in product due to an unreasonable delay.
Daily updates to this thread are being suspended at this point as both X1s and X3s have started shipping.

Does the getwork protocol function ok? Teacoin is 1.4k difficulty if you need a test subject.

When a deal sounds too good to be true...
Their deal wasn't as good as what KnC customers got delivered last year. So it wasn't at all unreasonable. They had the time & resources to make this happen on Feb 24th but they decided to fuck us instead.
