[Group Buy + pre-order] Russia, Bitfury ASIC!(pre-orders are closed for know)

[FCTaiChi]

Yeah, just because it's in Russia doesn't mean it's a scam.

Each person has to choose what proof they need to be able to send money.  Personally I would have a very difficult time sending money to someone I know nothing about, that has done nothing to prove their reputation to me, hasn't proven ability, hasn't shown prior experience...  have they even given real names?  With the way Terrahash was persecuted, I thought people would be more careful.

I hope everything works out, I would seriously be very grateful to any company that can give some hashing to the public.  If they start giving information, and it looks good, I'll add them to my list.  Please let me know:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=209750

It's getting interesting! Bitfury posted that he should recieve the engineering samles around the 13th of june, and he will then send 10-30 chips to alpha testers with EE experience!

The more I read from him the more I get excited about this miner, the fact that he can go deep into technical details and is willing to offer some chips for testing make it much more credible Let's hope the samples turn out well and aren't flawed!

Or when someone jumps off - I would jump in

[idee2013]

Meanwhile in Russia:

Metabank Prototype PCB with space for 48 bitfury chips 
According to bitfury, output should be 150-160GH/s
2-3 weeks until they get the first prototypes!

Exciting times!!

Metabank wrote today (google translated):

On Monday we get chips and getting ready to start urgent production.
In order that would get everything done in time, we will need to spend your Bitcoins, but it needs your consent.

All ordered will be notified by mail, please read and answer.
First of all, need an answer from those who disagree.

The approximate delivery time is ready devices - 2 weeks from the date of receipt by us of all the components.

If someone has direct access to the warehouses of electronic components as well, please contact, you may need your help.

Seems like they need to spend some pre-order funds for getting all electronic components. ailikun did you get a letter from metabank?

I guesstimate that they begin shipping in the middle of September...
