Would you be interested in 10-chip sub-modules from an Avalon rig at 14 BTC each (1.4 BTC per chip)?
This is actually a good deal. I would consider buying 1 of those chips but my only concern is getting the chips out of that board. Can I trust someone to do the reflow work while keeping the chip at 100% perfect condition, and then get it into my design without damaging it at all. The other issue is if I do have a problem with the chip I receive I won't know if its my design, if its my board, or if its the chip ect. This x factor makes me want to wait to receive test chips from Avalon instead.
1.4
BTC almost makes me want to try anyways but Im not sure if we can get the othe 9 chips sold. I don't think we could arrange all this disassembly and shipping before the Avalon test chips ship anyways.
If your not willing to pay 15x the going rate for pre orders don't expect to buy any chips untill we have them all in hand. Test chips are not really for sale either, nor should they be. They are very limited and reserved for developers and assemblers. They would sell for at least 1.4
BTC each if you could find somebody willing to sell one. Once we get them.
