I just want to clarify why I pulled out of this: it's not because I have any reservations against ragingazn. No. I think he's a great and generous person for doing this. The reason I backed out is because I'm in a hurry. I want those chips as soon as I can.
Thanks. Already noted a few days ago. BTW guys, you can buy and resell your chips in this group to other people! |

At the risk of repeating myself  I'm most interested in BkkCoin's board https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=190731.0 , if anyone wants to buy from this group and send to BkkCoin in Thailand maybe we can get something organised? |

Of the various projects I've seen proposed, I'm looking most closely at Burnin's, followed by BKKCoin's. I'm not ready to commit to either until we actually see confirmed designs (and recommend others hold off too), but they're both quite promising. Ultimately, I'm liking the idea of Burnin's "Double Density" option, which puts 20 chips per board, and is scaleable with multiple boards. It'd be awesome to be able to just get some PCB prints, and have the boards built for a group shipment here in the U.S. and then assembled by the end users. I've got a local hackerspace shop that probably has a decent reflow station. I might have to join up and get these things assembled there.  |

Assuming we have the schematics and complete gerber files, I have a source that can assemble and fabricate in a matter of days to a week. I will hopefully have more info on this shortly.

Definitely let me know. Every second counts in this race. If my math is correct, and we assume 10 batches of chips shipping in the next 10 weeks (which I think is probably a low number), that's 28.9T/hash coming online by mid-july, JUST from avalon chips ordered so far. That's gonna SKYROCKET difficulty in really short order. He who mines soonest wins. |

10 batches aka 100k chips? I think people had posted evidence of 500k chips being bought?

I haven't seen any hard numbers, and I don't know if anybody really has. It's all just speculation, but like I said, I was going with a conservative number. It could easily be a million chips, for all we know.  |

Iirc the 'proof' was like 45,000 btc being moved. It was damn close to the number for 10k chips x 50

Excuse me for the probably stupid question but how do you use these chips?
Sure, i'd buy some but once i have them what then?
|
Its price is not a very relevant factor in its adoption....

I'm working through the same process now - there's a lot on the first group buy that talks about different people who will be offering their services to add these chips that you can buy to PCBs... it seems like an awesome idea but have lots of reading and catching up to do before jumping in as far as I can tell. |

Anyone have any suggestions on how to attract more people to this group? Would love it if we could get our goal by next week.

ragingazn628, I got into the end of the last group buy (with admittedly a low amount,) could I still get in on this one or are you excluding previous people? I don't know how many exactly yet, it depends on what the going rate of BTC is when Dwolla finishes its transfer.
