I assume you have had a heavy dose of Fela as well. Saved me many a time.

Is this the official board bitfury/metabank yis going to use or is it just a prototype board? I didnt saw thr information, am i blind or simply stupid?

I'm just one of the alfa-testers. bitfury asked me to post the progress I make, so that's what I'm doing here in this thread. Looks like I'm still the only one doing so:) intron

Propably becuse you are only one that recived chips. Great work by the way...

Under development Modular UPGRADEABLE Miner (MUM). Looking for investors. Changing one PCB with screwdriver and you have brand new miner in hand... Plug&Play, scalable from one module to thousands.

intron nice work again, will you share any additional information abouth the chips you will use in these pcb, expecially the power supply . I suppose you are the only one that have chips, once I receive chips will start showing test results too.

No, there are more. No idea who they are or how many. intron Intron - I think I recall you mentioning that your original testing PCBs were designed for Avalon chips. Are you planning on making Avalon compatible hash modules with Bitfury chips? I am sure they would be a very popular upgrade with the Avalon chassis purchasers!

Yes, I started with Avalon. But I'm in batch 4 and I couldn't get samples. So I jumped ship when the bitfury ASIC came along. The S-HASH boards could work with any ASIC, just the interface with the processor needs some re-work and possibly the power supply. So when this is done and I can lay my hands on some Avalon samples I will continue with the Avalon board. Later when BFL ships there ASICs I try to make one for their chip also. intron

The miner delays and chip sales have pushed the risk/reward ratio into unfavorable territory. It looks like you have a big head start with bitfury. Thanks for updating the thread on your progress. Looking forward to seeing the products you bring to the market.

I think those waiting to buy Bitfury chips may be in for a long wait. As far as I know only Metabank and 100TH will have access to those chips (aside form testers). Does anyone else know otherwise?
