Very nice! Wish I had a few spare satoshi's around to pick a few up. To those considering purchasing, CanaryInTheMine has been 100% solid in all my dealings with him! Hash on people!!  There's always coinbase |

anyway i am really dissapointed with friedcat. please compare his posting style at 2012 and now,
he treat us like nothing, we helped him to be very very rich... and many of us lost fortunes due to his recent failures.
Friedcat has never been very good at posting often. If you've "lost fortunes", it's your own fault for buying high and selling at a loss. i think you dont exist
Really? Odd, where did all these dividends of mine come from then? we are all scammed... again
Again? I've personally never been scammed by Friedcat before, and I don't know of anyone who has. If you're the first, please, by all means, provide proof. Otherwise, save the rest of us our precious time by refraining from posting. firstly i havent lost a fortune, i started buying at 0.08, got 14 btc from divs and trading alone, had never have more than 30 shares. you are quoting pieces out of context from my post, please read it again. also visit page 8 of this topic and you will know that some of us have seen friedcat on video chat. i think you dont know who is TF (tradefortress), do you see analogy? holy moley!! and that's how unfounded rumors start... so based on what you are saying friedcat is now like tradefortress? Seriosuly?  Really??? The only thing CONSISTENT besides friedcat, is the FUD on this thread. it never fails, never sleeps. someone should get a PhD for writing a thesis on online crowd think... all they need to do is analyze this 1000+ page for sentiment and the results my surprise all. NLP and other mechanisms come to mind as far as how to analyse this... people, get a hobby!! besides btc. you have too much time to spread FUD, do something useful instead. /rant |

Have you taped out? Do you have a sample chip yet?
Based on what you said the answer is no, but just want to doublecheck.
Thanks

same power tip from what i read.
my question is will there be a blade with these say 300-400gh?
i grabbed hundreds of am sticks from you last year. a few am blades.
I am looking for s-1 replacements so a 300 to 400gh blade would be nice.
RockMiner will be coming out with a blade-like product soon. Hopefully by end of June, but I don't have official time frames and you shouldn't take my word as such. The R-BOX product should not be compared to blade systems etc... this is a consumer product. introduce someone to Bitcoin/mining, gift it etc... etc... |

|
|
Is there an issue with worker thread stats?
Seems like graphing and display in details for different time-frames has stopped working.
I restarted 2 workers, they connect and hash fine, but stats for them don't seem to be working?
|
|
|
|
Limited inventory!! These are great for introducing folks to mining and Bitcoin. This is a consumer oriented product |
|
|

Asked via PM as well: Do these use 2.1mm DC barrel plugs - the same as the Gridseed Scrypt ASICs?

Don't think I have any faith in ASICMiner anymore after the cube. I've bought multiple batches of 8 from you, and on the last batch I bought one was pretty much scratched up and not functional ( http://imgur.com/5gZzFqh) but since it was your last batch and you have no replacement inventory I ask for refund on that one cube in which you responded with ship the damaged parts and you will replace it .. I did and then nothing. So I've been stuck with the .39 BTC metal box. Good to hear from you! your replacements were shipped to you a Long time ago. I never heard back from you so I assumed you had received them... If you need to contact me you can PM or email me. this thread is for R-BOX miners. |

I believe these are OC-able, based on the frequency parameters written out to cgminer config file. But I have not verified this 100% default freq is 270. when I upped to 290, hashing rate ticked up slightly. someone needs to test this more.
However, per RockMiner and as usual, OCing does invalidate warranty.

In stock and shipping. Price .10 btc per unit. PAUSED. Introduce someone to mining! These miners are super quiet. 06/11/2014: Thanks Luke-Jr for adding bfgminer support!!! https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=626361This week's promo (6/16-20/2014): Remember the ASICMiner USB Block Erupters??? I was doing some cleaning and rearranging and found a small stash of them here . so, every order or r-box gets the original ASICMiner USB miner for free. while supplies last. I have various colors, will mix them so that you have a variety if ordering multiple r-boxes. Payment address: 1GgWprtNnyDYK8kchieCtPkaFSb5ffdLcz Please PM me to place an order. break even calcs: https://tradeblock.com/mining/a/19939d33a6 (DO YOUR OWN!!! analysis, making your own assumptions. don't trust my analysis) doggie's guide: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=639030.0 A bunch running together (hotplugable):  see post #2 regarding OCing. Each miners comes with a barrel connector and a USB cord. You can connect the barrel connector to a 12V 5A power source. HP/Dell server PSUs are excellent for doing this. You can buy a PSU on amazon for this: http://www.amazon.com/Replacement-adapter-charger-Benq-Monitors/dp/B003Z6ZR5O/I have a limited number of available PSUs (same as amazon above, at cost), if you want me to include some with your order, just let me know. I recommend these adapters as well (store is reliable and I can vouch for the proprietor): Shipping:You can email me a shipping label ( canary.btc@gmail.com) or you can pay me in btc to create one for you. 1 miner fits Region A Priority box. or flat rate PADDED envelope. please note the emphasis on padded. 2 miners fit into a Medium Priority box. 4 miners fit into a region B box. 6 miners fit into a Large Priority box. If you want me to handle shipping label, I'll charge btc, using Coinbase conversion. I highly recommend using your USD and creating a label on usps.com All you need to do is create a shipping label on www.usps.com and use YOUR address in both, the from and to fields. However, you specify shipping from a different zipcode, namely 60181 that's it! Specs:-Effective Hash Rate 32~37GH/S -AM ASIC 4* AM Gen3. TSMC 40nm -Mining Software CGMiner -Machine Size 90mm(L)*90mm(W)*70 mm(H) -Cooling Air Cooling system -Power Supply 12V,5A adapter -Power Interface DC2.5 -Nominal Power Consumption 40W~50W -Ambient Operating Temperature 10°~35°C (50°~95°F) 4.2+ bfgminer release has native support without the need for the zidiag tool step. there's also a branch of cgminer released by RockMiner that works with this hardware: https://github.com/rockminerinc/cgminer-for-R-BOXRasp. Pi image: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1bnjFYX5I found this approach to be most efficient on windows: 1. download current cgminer from: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/ unzip into a separate folder somewhere. 2. next, unzip and move the contents of the cgminer-win0.3.1.zip (from rockminer) into the folder from step 1. This will move and replace up to 17 files and will overwrite the standard cgminer distribution. Now you have a cgminer version that will work with r-box. 3. run cgminer and hash. |

Close out batch #1 of the beta list, and opened up batch #2. Team is recovering from the Amsterdam conference, so I hope to be giving out some access codes to the batch #1 group late next week. I will contact batch #1 via PM, and we can go from there.
As for everyone else feel free to ask questions, and apply for batch #2.
Sign me up please! |

i'd like to bring ya'lls attention to something else here... we have gone from 130nm to 60 to 55 to 40 to 28 in how much time? just a year? next up is 22 nm which is already in the works. what's after that? what size are the big gorillas on (and not even ASICs) here's some idea: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-cpu-processor-5nm,17578.htmlwhy care about where big boys are? well, they tend to have an effect on what foundries are available for a specific nm size!!! so by the end of this yr, Bitcoin ASICs may actually drive the nm size further down, and not the usual suspects (Intel, AMD)!?? I will make a bold prediction here that Bitcoin will begin (maybe accelerate is more appropriate of a word) anothor revolution wrt ICs and new technologies to base mining as well as other chips on... damn these are exciting times we live in |

there's an old USB HUB thread with reviews on all kinds of hubs. you should search the forums to find it.
this particular hub sucks.

I'd like to participate in the beta program as well. I already host full nodes, so this project would fit well.

What if:
1. Netgear / Cisco / DLink / Zyxel / TPLink/ Asus / Belkin / a bunch of router / switch manufacturers imbed a chip in their hardware, and lower the price of their products, so more people buy them. Most people leave their routers on, all the time.
This will be the norm in the future. Anything that has an internet connection and power will have a swappable card that has a Bitcoin ASIC on it. Btw, that appliance/hardware may be close to "free" if you let the manufacturer mine. |

The price can only go higher if things aren't somehow derailing due to something completely unforeseen.
well, if chips are being sold for $ which are then converted to BTC and distributed as dividends, the price of BTC going up (potentially) will have a downward force on dividends, thus on share price. Infact, I remember reading here, last year, friedcat or someone else saying "miners make only sense to be priced in bitcoins", which makes sense since they will produce bitcoins... Why are they being sold for dollars now? Foundry takes dollars, not btc. |

what you've described isn't per se a use for AM's chip. you're describing a new coin entirely.. that is somehow related to the production and printing process... i.e., the 3d printing machine would have to be linked internally to the '3d printing coin'... so that they are inextricably linked...
We should be able to use Bitcoin (not btc) instead of re-inventing the wheel? |

For all you AM fans, this might be slightly disturbing: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=387533.msg6358781#msg6358781Seems AM are going to build some 8 million chips by June. That's a lot of wafers, and a lot of capacity. It will take them a good few months to deploy it, but when they do it's going to drastically affect earnings, I'd estimate by September that the network rate will be 200PH. At that level, a TH of power might earn you $195 a month after you've paid for your power, and they'll want to add the same again, no doubt. I just don't understand your enthusiasm for your soon-to-be biggest competitor? (albeit indirectly) AM's goal is to reclaim the lead in chips and keep it. To avoid the centralization debate, the emphasis is on selling chips to anyone who wants to create their own miners. in the long run, we should see something like the Intel/AMD (maybe few others will join Bitcoin ASIC chip producers club) as they relate to PC/server manufacturing today. i.e. AM makes the chips, but other companies build miners to satisfy different market segments. also, very soon, there's no reason why Samsung TVs, DVD players etc... shouldn't have a swap-able card that runs Bitcoin mining chip/s. that device may be "free" to you if you provide electricity/internet and Samsung keeps mined btc? (substitute Samsung for any other maker of some appliance). it's possible that the entertainment industry can use Bitcoin to "solve" the piracy "issue" when they finally see the light and get some forward thinking, technology understanding board members at Hollywood & Co. and 3d printing can benefit by using Bitcoin to deliver one time use/print designs for an item you print at home or local Kinko's (former or new 3D-Kinkos). no need to go to store to buy a cup for ex. (also, no need for another country to manufacture it and ship it in a container overseas). Your payment for a printed item, can be made to multiple parties in the new supply chain: the designer of the item and the raw material manufacturer. the 3d printer could have a chip to help process printing requests and handle instant payments to all involved (no need to have NET 30 terms when I buy a cup, everyone gets paid instantly). this is a high level, simple example using a cup, let your imagination run wild. devices/systems that utilize Bitcoin (yes, upper B) network may need/want chips for uses besides just mining for bitcoins. AM is positioning to take the lead and keep it. This is an interesting concept, Canary. I can imagine this might spur a startup or two--is anyone talking about something like this I could read more about? there are already systems under development (near release) from the 3d printing leaders to offer pay per use 3d printing. its also been proposed doing licensing for printing popular likenesses and characters etc, as well as in-store printing of your own figures etc. this is coming to the retail and home environment, regardless of bitcoin and isn't specifically a bitcoin related business. http://www.3dsystems.com/press-releases/staples-partners-3d-systems-launch-store-3d-printing-experience-new-york-and-losits not clear how bitcoin itself helps avoid piracy... although in general - business model-wise - if only the movie industry would offer its content in a form, and at a time when the customers wanted it (and pay for it) maybe there'd be a lot less piracy. these staggered windowed releases and staggered territory releases are whats hurting them.. yet again, bitcoin or not. How are you suggesting that AsicMiner's bitcoin mining chips can be useful outside of mining for bitcoins? you mean mining for some other SHA-256 coin?, or are you referring to non-mining uses (are there any?) well, as with proof of work and elimination of double spending (Bitcoin), proof of consumption can be done so that you don't "get" a second copy for "free"? if you print that cup, it was actually printed beyond any doubt and when you watched that movie, you actually did. of course with proof of consumption ideas, the price per item should come down significantly, that cup may cost you pennies, so should the movie. you pay per "proved" use/consumption? |

I mentioned one of the ideas a while back on Reddit, maybe someone picked up on it already. |
