hi,
how close are you in producing your version 1 chip? Is this the chip will be launched in Aug/Sep 2013?
Or you plan version 2 chip for launch for this period?

what's the target price for your products? or Hash rate/$?

We won't yet talk about 'prices', but our cost is about 18~20 USD/Ghash for version 1, still just an estimation. Take it with a grain of salt.


18~20 USD/Ghash is in line with estimates from Bitfury/Metabank (~16 USD/Ghash) and KNCminer (~20 USD/Ghash). Of course yours is a cost estimate and theirs is based on actual price. Like Avalon vs. BFL, timing will determine the winner.

awesome! always good to see new players coming in. anyway keep your design simple guys and don't overstretch yourselves trying to win race in how advanced and latest NM technology you should have.. start with cheapest and fastest route to market which seems to be 130nm so far and once you have the lead sky is the limit. i'm sure most of us here don't care how ugly the board looks like as long as it hashes and stable... If you look at BFL it just got itself way too overstretched trying to win NM die size race...

Thanks for the interest so far. We will keep everyone updated about our progress.

Asia Business is who registered our legal entity in Hong Kong and included in the price of company registration you do get a a mail forwarding service, normally you use that for correspondance, until you find and buy/rent your office space.

Thanks for your input.  Our main priority now is finalizing the design and put the ICs with a 180nm feature size in production.

+1

Also, will you actually sell hardware (blades) or shares? Not sure I understand...

The management, and a member of the technical team specifically.

The business model part mentions that, this is a decision that has not been yet taken. It depends on many still "unknow" factors.

EDIT : Further elaborating  with this bit from our website :

"At the moment we are able to fund a first test run of version 1 IC and continue development of version 2.
If v.1 IC test run is successful, we will purchase a run for 100.000 ICs which should yeld about 30 TH/sec in total.
We will deploy half of this hashing power for private use and re-sell the remaining stock of ICs in the form of high powered 'blade-like' devices.
Income generated will go toward the completion and tape-out of the version 2 IC."

The "unknow" factors, refer to the success/failure of first 180nm test run, on the success of which, depends a further, bigger run of ICs.
We still need to iron out some quirks with the preliminar design before we can safely go on tape-out phase, so you should get what i'm talking about, there are many 'chained' events which depend on each other success before we can achieve significant results and talk about selling devices or shares.

Nice - I will be interested in both options but if you ship from Asia (I live in Europe) maybe better if I have hosting/shares option.
Good luck anyway!
