ASIC 110nm 1ghs/s 2.5W per chip

[funnow]

As I mention, I'm starting a new topic, because it's a project nearly from scratch.
News will be posted here. Website will be online in about 4 weeks. We are thinking about project name.
So keep reading news.

We have money. So we don't need anymore.

Why are you doing an ASIC then?

Why not give us more details then. Process node, how far are you into this etc

What I know at the moment:  0,18u-0,13u (180nm-130nm) with less than $250k (ASIC development $150k, shattle first test (50 chips) - $40k, chip assembling and final testing $40k)
Development could take 3-4 months, maybe 5.

You'll be way behind the game with that process and such lead time.

Probably I will be the only one with only accepting escrow payment. That's for sure.
I will post the lead time when I will know more about.

Way behind using what metric? All ASICS currently being sold are expensive in terms of $s/hash, not J/hash. We cannot tell who is "way behind" until we see the price of finished product. But I am getting ahead of myself, since there is really nothing to be discussed in this thread yet, anf there won't be until the first unit is tested by an independent party.

And you will offer better prices than current ASIC vendors right?(BFL doesn't count. Inaba is a lying tard) Considering that AM sold 10Ghash devices for ~1 mil USD in a matter of days you will surely get your R&D money back even with lower prices. Let us know when you will have a better estimate for your timeline. Will you be EU or US based?

Way behind the current quarter, but the game has 3 more to go. We just started the ASIC race and there is probably 5 years time for various enhancements that will determine the bestselling ASIC design.

EDIT: NOT that I believe that this project is true or will be successful, otherwise why even reveal it on this forum in such a way.

[Amph]

stop revealing new projects that aren't ready to ship, it is getting worse than all those new scamcoin

Scam sites are the worst thing, and they have nothing in common with us.
So stop putting us in the same "box"!

It's good that you're starting a project with thinking about the project name. I was told that it's the most important part of every project so I'm glad to see that you try to cover it first. Then of course comes the website and it's good that it's 2nd on your list. This gives me confidence in your project. Keep us updated and let us know as soon as you have your logo designed!

You are too late to the ASIC game. There are at least three companies that have ASICs developed already, and you are a fool if you think those three companies aren't working on improved versions (well, maybe not BFL, lol).

That's A LOT of competition and developing an ASIC takes a lot of money and a long time.

These companies are selling their machines WAY over their cost because that is what the market will bear right now. ASICs in large quantities are cheap. Expect them to get cheap and competition to get tougher. And most importantly, difficulty will skyrocket.

In the not too distant future (within a year), we will be able to buy ASIC machines with about 100 GH/sec power that run at about 100 watts and cost a few hundred dollars. The difficulty will be such that the ROI for such a machine will be 1-2 years, so mining will be mostly for fun and small profits, not the cash cow it is now.
