Newbie AVALON ASIC mining buy-in

[svenp]

BFL has always talked about gearing up for thousands of units a month.  Were they to succeed, they could drop +100TH/s on the network per month.  That would obviously be a big, big deal.  I'm not holding my breath for it...  I doubt they'll ship anything this month, perhaps a few hundred in May just to put themselves on the map.

again, if i were the asic makers, i would use the devices to mine coins until the hashing difficulty is much higher, then ship out the devices.

why give up your gold egg laying hens while they are still productive (reproductive? )

just plain business sense.

Yes, BUT if you do that you'll never make money selling hardware.  This moment for cashing in big will only last a little while.

Which is why we've got the AVALON shares now for a unit that will be shipping out next week

Could you pm me the details?  How many shares are available?  Will you accept BTC payment?

Good luck to them........

People will only buy if they can get ROI and if you are selling a unit at 1.5k but the ROI is 4 years , then it's really going to dent their sale figures.

more likely they will do what josh is doing... set up a mining company

Hi Ares,

I'm also interested in the project. Can you provide more details please ? How many shares are left ?

[Ares5000]

EDIT: Looks like we are all sold out...

Hi, could you sqeeze in one more person in there? I could buy 40 shares today upfront.

Or better, could we buy another one? I'm sure there are more people interested and eager to get in business somehow.
I know i'm late... just trying to get in before June/July.

Thanks

I'm interested as well... if more shares were generated or another machine was purchased.  Feel free to PM me

Why would someone who bought one of these want to sell shares?  Why wouldn't they just use it themselves and keep all the profits?

Because it was a group-buy.
