Is this out of the blue? I don't recall hearing anything about deepbit asics. Hasn't been announced in English yet shh ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) But seriously, am I the only one that attempts to read the other-languaged forum? i just tried via google translate. ...yea... i'm gonna have to wait for an english announcement.

I did the math:
BTCFPGA bASIC $1069.99 ÷ 27GH = $39.63/GH 1 year warranty projected to ship in November/December of 2012
BFL Single 'SC' $1299.00 ÷ 40GH = $32.48/GH 6 month warranty projected to ship in October of 2012
but yes, competition is good.
Looking good cablepair ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Price is spot on with BFL,or close enough for me & the warranty is great ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Now will he be offering the buyback (trade in) like BFL does??? He was talking about it,If so,then a really great deal for his old customer base too ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) BFL can more easily account for their trade-in value since it apparently has the higher perforamnce Stratix III chips. And maybe they will finally use those to develop the other products that they seem to imply existing, but yet don't seem to exist going by the dead links on their website: e.g. http://www.butterflylabs.com/drivers/1.Computational research 2.Medical imaging 3.Packet integrity verification 4.Generic fingerprinting engine If they don't exist, they should remove those link, imo. It feels like an attempt to create a better impression of the company than actual accomplishments. Anyway, BFL Singles doubled in price from FPGA to ASIC. This bASIC 27GH product will be the same price as the older FPGA product. But still the price is higher than BFL pound for pound. ||bit

I'm wondering if I should hold on to 1 BFL Single incase they develop something interesting to do with it later on.

Bonds are traded via icbit.se at ~$300 per Gh/s as "DB.RCLMR". The price is justified by the "absence of competition" (in real life). EDIT: A hint in English: Soon our Reclaimer project bonds will be available - another way of investing in ASIC and the Bitcoin future ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) (Well, actually they are already available, but not announced yet) EDIT2: my original claim of ~$300 per Gh/s was wrong, and I apologize. It was based on some of the comments in the referenced thread, not on what Tycho officially stated or restated.

Reservation is by purchasing special "securities" on the trading floor https://icbit.seAfter the announcement of the start of serial production, four bond could be exchanged for one basic unit-Reclaimer One.For other models, respectively, more bonds. (price valid when you purchase through predzakaze bonds)These options have not been checked on finished products, but performance is not guaranteed base product below. Bonds are sold at our trading site https://icbit.se in the Exchange, the name of the tool-DB.RCLMRTo purchase bonds, you must enter bitkojny directly or buy them on the spot for dollars or rubles.

These options have not been checked on finished products, but performance is not guaranteed base product below. This part is almost completely opposite. It says "guaranteed not to be below published perfomance for base product".

So...are you going to be selling these after you mine with them.Thats the drift I'm getting after reading that thread.Because it sounds like your designing them for data center installs. Or,buy bonds=buying product & receive when ready for shipping ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

I said " $320 per GH/s seems reasonable when no BFL products are available". Actual prices and performance figures are stated in the first message, and it's from $2800 for 80 GH/s (most effective) down to $320 for 4 GH/s (least effective).

I did the math:
BTCFPGA bASIC $1069.99 ÷ 27GH = $39.63/GH 1 year warranty projected to ship in November/December of 2012
BFL Single 'SC' $1299.00 ÷ 40GH = $32.48/GH 6 month warranty projected to ship in October of 2012
but yes, competition is good.
BFL has changed their delivery date to late October/early November, FYI: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=97269.msg1150738#msg1150738

After further optimization and some trade-offs, we came up with this updated estimation results based on our improved design.
Hashrate: 1.00GH/s per chip Area: 21.7mm^2 per chip Power Consumption: 8.23W
Again remember that they are estimated from the RTL design and might have some differences to real products.
