Selling HashFast Golden Nonce chips. Tested and working, we have 20 chips in hand and ready to populate boards.  Will do escrow if interested.

Specs:
High performance 28nm ASIC mining chip
Hashing Output: Up to 800 GH/s (overclocked)
Hashing Output: 400 GH/s (nominal)
Power Consumption at the chip: 0.65 Watt per Gigahash /sec +/- 20%
Die has built in thermal controls that allow the chip to pushed to the edge without damaging cores
Designed to be under-clocked for greater efficiency, and overclocked for greater performance

PM or reply with questions.

Is it me or do these look exactly like the HashFast(Scam) boards/chips?

Where/how did VMC acquire these?

24 amps is the continuous load you'll want to put on a 30amp PDU. You want 80% -- 20 amps really shouldn't have more than 16 amp loads on them, and so forth.

It does, you will either need C19 to C20 cables or C13 to C14 depending on what PSUs you are using. Some PDUs come with a power cord attached, but most come with a C20 socket that you can choose whatever your wall outlet plug style is and then get a C19 on the end of it to hook to the PDU's C20 input.

Three phase power is used for heavy loads and is usually not pulled to residential areas. It's essentially 3 feeds, but it uses less conductor material overall, so it's more efficient in the transfer of power.

Single phase is almost always what you'll be dealing with at your house.

Any metered PDU generally does the job, there are a few with network jacks that make things even more configurable remotely (you can turn banks on/off, reset power remotely, etc.). The cheapest brands are generally APC/TrippLite, but they work okay for most people.

It's generally not that expensive when you consider the return on your investment in this space.

Sad indeed. I'm curious to the whole story of this--they were doing some great things for marketplace adoption.

I would assume other BF members have some pull and can force a resignation as well as also strip away a "Platinum" membership rating.

How can we get MT Gox stripped from the Bitcoin Foundation along with it's CEO, Mark Karpeles?

This is doing tremendous damage to the community and they're still plastered all over the face of the Foundation that is supposed to be helping the community grow.

GPU mining is certainly still profitable on Scrypt.

It is not profitable to mine any coin built on SHA-256.

Things to consider about starting to acquire a fleet of miners or GPUs: heat & electricity. Also, you should have some sort of fire suppression system in place if you care about the building you are doing this in.

Awesome, can't wait for the rest of these.
