Official Avalon mining rig clones thread from bitmine.ch (NOW SHIPPING)

[giorgiomassa]

Hi all,

we thought it may be interesting for everybody to know that we're starting to take preorders for a small batch of what will be an exact clone of the Avalon mining rig. As you know, Avalon isn't taking orders for their rigs anymore and there's a change they won't be doing it soon, BUT they're selling their ASIC ICs. We have ordered a batch of ICs and are ready to assemble & ship out working units based on Avalon's design as early as the beginnings of August 2013. In fact, everything is ready and we're just holding the production waiting for Avalon's ICs to be delivered.

http://www.bitmine.ch

Specs are identical to Avalon's units, 4 modules of 21-22 GH/s each making up an unit of 85+ GH/s using about 650-700W standard ATX PSU.

Here's the link to our YouTube channel where you can see the first video of our "How's a bitmine.ch bitcoin miner made"!

If you have your own Avalon ICs, you can order the unit & send in your ASIC ICs for fitting in the clones, this option is ALWAYS possible and doesn't depend on the batches' stock! Check the website for more infos.

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Happy mining!!

Hi Guys,

I'm also into this project  , special thanks to Avalon for releasing all the sources and giving the opportunity to buy IC's
for any questions you can pm us or ask here on the thread

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

I only have $159 in fiat, what does that buy me? I am serious about this amount. Everything regarding Avalon has had outrageous prices, true the device comes with benefits while the diff is low, but how can I acquire so much money for a single 10 chip module fully assembled?

I'm sorry we can't help you here directly but you can check out other DIY threads here on bitcointalk, there's the Klondike board that looks promising, unfortunately the smallest unit we're building & selling is using 320 Avalon ICs and with that amount you buy just about 15 pcs of them.

[jeroenn13]

I am interested in this. Will follow this thread.

[ManBearPig]

I'm interested but wary.

Do you have already produced a clone of the avalon case? I would like to purchase a empty case!! (NOT A JOKE)

[peterepeat]

Hi,
Thanks for starting this.
If I have a 3 module Avalon will you be able to supply an additional module to take it from 63 to 85 GH? How much will it cost?
Cheers

Hi, we are working on this right in these days, but I don't think we are going to sell only the empty case.
the minimun order of the case manufacturing is more than 30 pc's but will it be used it for future avalon clones.

[Ultraviolet]

Yay another preorder with no product in hand.

this is something interesting we are already considering, I'm unable to tell you how much will it cost right now.
at the moment our priority is be ready with all the hardware for the incoming Avalon Chips, so we don't have so much time for elaborate this new product, but I'm quite sure we will give this possibility too

[ManBearPig]

I'm out, this doesn't feel right. Good luck to those ordering.

Funny how the 2 members involved and the one who's willing to go visit their factory and vouch for them are all registered between 7-9 May and have post counts between 11-13

lol I didn't notice this,

sorry I can't resist to post it

[Gordon Bleu]

i really don't want to tarnish some Reputation because of my Postcount,
i'm not affiliated with them,
usually i visit BFL or Imageboards
i signed up here for a x6500 Offer

But i'm sure there will be someone with more Credibility who will also investigate,  

So Please, not everyone with low Postcount is a Scammer or a Troll

[gotah]

the best way to prove we are not scammers is follow us in this project, and see if we will really delivery the first clone.
during next week we will post some news about our hardware production (photo's included), so could be interesting for all, and anyone can subscribe to our newsletter.

Why dont you offer me or some other hero member a free flight plus trip and hotel to your office.

So we could check it and vouch for you
