First ASIC in India

[Fernandez]

This is INDIA.

To be honest there are just too many people who will have the temptation to bully him & take the hasher from him by force. If i were him I would do the same thing & be utmost secretive about this - this is specially keeping in mind that 90% of us geeks are weak & fragile & skinny ( unlike me ).

I was just planning on cutting off the electricity to his house though.

I am not doubting your win.
I am doubting the shadowy bitcoin foundation doing nowadays.
I don't think any one will come & grab it, just like that, without knowing ur address or location.
Posting pics & videos not going to harm you.
But if bitcoin foundation, commands you not to show any one, by signing a NDA orally or in written, then its very bad.
I have some idea how much bitcoin dark side growing & how much greedy its getting day by day.

[Pinwheel]

I do not have any idea what you talking about. Nobody command me anything. I just do not have time for for videos, photos and visitors.

[Benson Samuel]

Hmm, how did the foundation get involved in this?

[dishwara]

Damn it, i confused Bitfountain company with Bitcoin foundation

I just won in ASICMINER Auction: 10 Block Erupter Blades

I got two ASICMINER Erupter Blades for just 150 btc . Last seconds of auction was just mental, people appeared from nowhere and start posting bids.  huh ... need some refreshing drink

Congrats! You also have early BFL, so looks like you have been in the BTC for quite some time, it is certainly commendable considering not much btc awareness in India yet.

thanks, yeah I been around for a while, still have bitcoins from time it was 4.7 usd. Sold few thousand on that rate too. (hell of a money now) One year ago, it was hard to belie bitcoins will be 6 usd during my life time. never been seriously involved just playing in free time.

My BFL SC Singles will be shipped in first shipping batch.  Looking to buy few more ASICMINERS.

[shibaji]

Very nice. Best wishes.

If you do, dont announce it publicly you are just attracting the attention that could be bad.

Yup, Its just an advice, not an order.

bitcoins is amazing, you cannot find such huge number of people who are so sophisticated in their judgement and full poison, anywhere, they are all here.

http://ow.ly/i/1WUo4 - BFL Shipping finally!

but  only Jalepenos, and for developers, not for general public. Seem like they stopped calling it Jalepeno not it is simple 5 GH/s Bitcoin Miner.

Real good thing is that all those annoying brats, who was screaming -"scam ... scam" can shut up now

Any idea how customs may deal with it?

Any idea how customs may deal with it?

custom cleared by courier (Fedex, DHL, UPS), delivery guy will show you how much they paid for custom clearance and you give him money, that is all.
If it is your first delivery they may not charge you anything at all. Later like 800-1000 inr per parcel. UPS having worst rates for custom clearance.

My blades already in India, super fast shipping by friedcat!!

Did you declare any price for your hardware to the customs ?

A simple calculation from ppobox.com tells me I will have to pay HUUUUGE customs fees :/

Never really looked up the ASICs stuff earlier; but I searched BFL Jalapeno and I got to a website with a variety of products and promptly to the checkout - so whats all the fuss? Late delivery?
