If you had 2 grand to spend, would you buy one? Would it be worth it?

What does the ASIC mean?

And it says it's only 4" x 4" x 4". How is this possible? that's smaller than a graphics card

If it actually existed, it would be a great buy right now. But there is no such product actually available.

Application Specific Integrated Circuit


These devices are made to hash, and only hash.  No playing Crysis 3 on them.

Very efficient for hashing compared to a GPU. Right now whoever has one is making tons of BTC or SHA256 based coins.  In a few when everybody has them CPU/GPU mining will be just memories.

At present nobody has one.  Lots of people ordered them (including myself).  We're all waiting.

No, it does not exist. They are simply selling pre-orders.

So your name is Svaolba ?  Grin The whole profile looks cooked up - I would not be surprised if you turn out to be moneypacktrader = dayasinfo = instaBoost = ChicaDee

Now is your cooling off period to collect post count, and then one hot strike - eh ?
