You can choose what currency you want to receive (EUR/BTC), the BTC amount will follow the current bitpay-price.

Status Update:

I received the last batch of boards today .
Almost all of it will be leave my hands again tomorrow.
Was a lot of work to package them all.

Why the delay:
CryptX has not paid me yet, that lead to me being unable to pay my contractors which then stopped production.
After a lot of back and forth i managed to convince them to finish the Job.

Hello burnin,

Avalon will soon start auction of their 55nm chips on TradeHill auction. Will you be able to build boards for these chips?

[Newar]

455MHz @ 32C?   Are you running them in your fridge???
Anyway I'll try with my air cooled bitburners and "--avalon-auto". Let's see what happens...

For me "--avalon-auto" results in slower hashrates - after about 10h it went down to ~320MHz (starting at 380MHz). I'll try again with v3.4.3, maybe this will result in better rates...

I would really like to see pictures of solaris setup, must look awesome.

+1

sorry for the delay. I had problems with my PC.

Nice setup!

I have sample chips here i will test, but i am busy with the old ones at the moment.

You're a brave one to trust Avalon to actually ship chips on time after the last disaster.

Thanks. Is there anyone, who can build boards out of new Avalon 55nm chips? Maybe cryptx? I wish to buy chips, but I need to find good engineer to build boards first

Cryptx doesn't build boards, they let burnin make them and then rip him off

Cryptx didnt pay you till now... i dont see a reason why they should do this.

Uhm, what? You don't see a reason why CryptX should pay his debts? Can you elaborate?

Lost in translation I think...

Don't see a reason why he WOULD do this...
i.e. Unacceptable behavior

I meant i dont see why "they should do this"... meaning why they dont pay burnin all the time. I dont see a good reason for that.

Update:

Boards payed for July 24th.... on their way, was provided a tracking number....

If Btc goes to $1000 I might be able to get something out of it

That's what I meant. To a native English speaker in that context it still reads "why should they pay".  I knew you didn't mean this.

Hm... didnt thought that. I referred to "didnt pay" what i dont understand why they didnt. And its read as "pay" that i dont understand why they should. Its maybe how you worth words in sentences and might be different. Strange, but i see it can be misread.

Basicaly we're f*cked up... 

Hi, how can I apply the 70% refund from previous Avalon Bitburner purchase? Please. Thanks.

I've received a mail   

Hello Anddy,

Discount coupons can no longer be applied, they where valid for the previous batch of boards.
If you still have any unused coupon(s) available, we can revert them and mark your original order for refund (refunds will be processed by Burnin).

Best,

CryptX

What now?

Hi, how can I apply the 70% refund from previous Avalon Bitburner purchase? Please. Thanks.

Same here, where can I apply my discount code please cryptx?

We do not convert Burnin orders for this batch. You have to apply for your 50% refund from Burnin.

We had no intention to communicate through forum posts about internal affairs with Burnin.

We did not receive any answer by Burnin in days about financial matters (still waiting for his invoices + we already paid ~65% through discounts)
Now we are held responsible for undelivered promises by Burnin through a forum post.
We are very dissapointed about this to say the least.

Oh S*it¡¡

So, that means that our orders probably will never be refunded? Isn't it?

Bad news anyway... and bad news for the bitcoin environment

Hello burnin,

How did your tests went? Everything OK? Any plans to building boards for these chips?

WHAT'S WITH THE REFUNDS?
