To the OP: Buy Avalon if you want an ASIC mining device. Buy BFL if you want to want an ASIC mining device.
|
|

If BFL ever ships, this poll will evaluate to true. Because that month will be "this month" when they ship. If they ever do ship, I will necro this thread and find an appropriate picture of a cat.

I prefer the graph for the last 3 months:
Follow the purple line.
Why did you shrink the img, without making it clickable? Then we can't see it. Edit: But I do agree with you. We're almost to where we were before the reward half. Yay ASICs! I should have provide a link for the image, but my brain farted. I was just showing a graph of the same time period without a massive spike in hash rate.

One day, ASICs will be here. That will be the day that ASICs arrive. The end.
True story.

Did someone say Solidcoin? I thought I felt a disturbance in the hash fabric of the universe!

mobodick you pretty much nailed it. This is also the only real possibility for ASICs to be real, that they are using a retail product (an existing SHA-256 ASIC) Give me 100BTC and a month and I promise to supply you with something as convincing as this. This is a pcb with some parts a few heatsinks but without the ASICs. I think Desolator got you with that picture. Everyone knows that pictures cannot be modified and then posted on the internets. Someone would have to make a program to change the picture, and no such program exists. Even if it did, the internet police would arrest them! And kittens.

Just think about a football game without any rules, officials or even a standard field.
You do realise that footballers self-organise? They voluntarily play under standard rules. They're not forced to play "government football" under penalty of imprisonment. And they're free to invent and play a completely new game if they like. Our government is self organized. Footballers are forced to play NFL/NCAA/High School football under penalty of fines and/or expulsion. Anyone is free to leave the US and try to form a new government on some other playing field, just not this one. BTC is a place where the sharks eat the AnCappers. I am a little conflicted about some of these ripoff schemes, given who they are preying upon. It would probably be for the best if there was less fraud, but there is a huge demand in BTC for fraudulent get rich quick schemes. Who am I to stand in the way of the free market?

Whoever bet that is a fool.. I suspect it's Mircea Popescu... good luck winning your bet against when you lose, though. I'm sure he'll force close the bet and negate all bets after we ship so he doesn't lose the 250 BTC.
So whats your ship date again ?? never. They ship 2 days after a Cleveland franchise wins a championship.

Bad coders post their mining code. Good coders post their mining code. Nitwits run the bad code.
There is a healthy supply of both bad coders and nitwits on this planet, therefore there should be bad mining code run.

Countdown till thread move to speculation forum. Why is there no conspiracy theory forum?
upvoted There really aren't that many conspiracy threads created that would warrant such a section IMO plus I'd hate to see creating such a section actually promote more stupidity like that. The lack of a conspiracy theory forum is due to a conspiracy of the mods to cover up conspiracies.

Why do these threads always have trolls ...."BFL suck", "bASIC are liars"...etc. Whatever happen to serious and helpful posts?
Who said we weren't serious and helpful? Okay just for you: RAINBOWS, UNICORNS, FLOWERS, CAREBEARS, CHOCOLATE, LOVE. That make you feel better? This thread is not about flowers and carebears. You troll.

You do know that the VT papers were posted up here and commented on 6 months ago, right? This isn't exactly news that SHA2 ASIC cores are out there in the wild to anyone paying attention.
Yep......, but it seems , just like goldfish some people have short memories. Goldfish don't have short memories. Two things you can count on: ASICs will arrive someday. People will be scammed by promises of ASICs. Not necessarily in that order.

This might help
Yes it did. Thank you.

P2Pool is accounted for, it's in with the 3rd tier pools.
I don't see it mentioned in anyone's graph.

p2pool not accounted for?

The OP believes in only the one true ASIC's. The answer is no. Not all ASIC manufacturers are scammers. See? There it is again. 's does not make plural, it makes possessive. Someone is working hard to get their Pendantry Badge to make Eagle Snark.
