Thankyou, you have given me lots to think about and my thoughts on YAC and what ive seen is it has survived massive botnet invasions and in the end
the more the merier imo because it never took a hit at all and in the end mining it is securing it if gpu is unprofitable for people then people will stop mining it and it will not be secure

so from what i can work out if a botnet takes 51% it wouldn't be to attack it but would mainly be to make their coding life easier by not having to transmit the network info to all theri zombies
but im not 100% sure how that works and may be wildly miss informed but for now ive seen huge waves of botnets hit it and it hasnt taken much of a hit at all

So im still really confused about BFL are they legit because i see them all over ebay but the sellers are all using the same pics
and if they are can someone prove they have one with pics and outputs and if not then why dont we just say it lol

BFL Jalapeno and five ASICminer USBs running on a raspberry pi, total 6,850 Mhash/s

Just so I don't have to search how much did the usb ASICminers cost? What is the individual has rate of the usb ones

Nice photo btw

Thanks, the USBs are 2 BTC each, most resellers are charging 2.2-2.5BTC for units in hand. I paid 2.1 in the first batch group buy. They are 330 Mhash/s each, I bought them more for novelty than actual mining, they will take a long time to pay off and new buyers may never reach ROI depending on future difficulty increases.

Wow thankyou for the pic, looks legit and is that about 8ghs or abouts?

1 GHash/s = 1,000 Mhash/s so 6.8 Ghash

Gawd damn it  Everything is too expensive and no ROI. I hate that and I am pretty sure its gonna hurt bitcoins in the long run. heh! I see no future in mining if this stays the norm.

Looks like I'm out!
Peace!

Nice setup.

uhm....was this not 1.5 thash at one stage?? 

[Photon939]

Yeah due to their fail at power estimating, a 1.5 TH/s box would now consume about 7 KW and would quickly melt itself. They downgraded it to 500GH/s to fit within a reasonable thermal envelope. They still basically require two 120v circuits or 240v power to run one.

Are there any trusted bitcointalk members that received BFL hardware?

I guess I'm not really trusted, but quite a few people have Jalapenos now including me.

[oroboras]

1 GHash/s = 1,000 Mhash/s so 6.8 Ghash

I always wondered about that - cos really it should be 1024MH/s (call me pedantic)

I know the difference is not much, but it really does add up, if you are running a decent set up (like my upgraded LS & Jalapeno will be putting out a combined 37GH/s - which if it was 1024MH/s per Gh/s would be the equivalent of an extra 888MH/s)

are they shipping in bulk yet?
