[ANN] Bitfury ASIC sales in EU and Europe

[vs3]

Punin - by the way you may want to have a word with your QA department (or shipping and packaging one) :



(which was order 1609 if that matters)

Replacement will be sent today via express mail.

Ah! Thanks :-)
I guess I should've added not to worry about that - I'm trashing a lot more expensive things in development, so a $5 chip is really not worth the shipping expenses.

If you haven't sent it yet - please don't waste your time. If you really insist you may add some freebie with my next order.

Price dropped for M & H-cards

Is the next generation equipment gonna be compatible with the same v3 mboard? 

[Trupik]

If anyone is interested, I'm selling my 360+ GH/s Bitfury Rig of 12 H-cards v1.2 in auction on eBay. Only as whole, with M-board, Rpi, fans, PSU, case. Current price: 499,- USD.

You're kidding, right? $8 per GH/s? This isn't 2013 anymore.

Anyone interested in some V1.2 Hcard minis to fill their rigs: please have a looksie here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583569.0

Selling bare ASICs over the price CEX.IO or other GHs exchanges charge is ridiculous. People have to actually put hardware around these chips, and compete with the CEX.IO price, which today is around US$ 3.5/GHS. How can this US$ 8 price be attractive to anybody?

You are not considering the EXTRA costs of CEX all the Electricity, Manteinance, Repair Fees the cost in 1 year is more like u$s 14 per GH.

Weird issue: today i reboot the Bitfury for some brief downtime, and on powering up it fails to hash properly.

Here's what happens (rebooting does not resolve the issue, nor do the start/stop mining buttons)

-The chips are hot - 100% operating and producing the full heat of normal operation
- SSH viewing of the stat.log file shows that all the chips are hashing normally, and actually provides a correct hashrate (about 225GH/6 cards)
- The WebUI works but shows no hashrate
- The pool shows no hashrate.
- using SSH, the pools_conf file has the correct information and matches the webUI pool info


I dont understand if the chips are hashing but somehow not reporting the outputs? This was a routine 'shudown/halt, PSU off, a few minutes, PSU on'. First time ive ever had the unit failing to hash normally but produce heat

EDIT:  after posting this, somehow one last attempt at the stop miner/start miner buttons on the WEBui got it working again.... weirdness (and why i try to not touch these things once they are running)

is this company dead ?

[xstr8guy]

is this company dead ?

Website say they are reorganizing their business. Probably means they are just going the private farm route like MegaBigPower and not selling retail anymore.

I think the Bitfury bosses want to keep retail to themselves now. And most likely want to sell only to large-scale operations. That would be my guess.

[fractal02]

is this company dead ?

Not dead...

But like xstr8guy say, they moved to private mining or large operation...
Such a shame because the bitfury hardware is rock solid, basic but rock solid.

Yet another case of a failed asic company.
Nobody knows how to make asics - all that digital junk 
Analog electronic is the only thing that works properly, someone should make a analog miner 

[ShadesOfMarble]

Where exactly did Bitfury (or punin) fail?

Indeed!

Aside from some pricing and delivery tricks (but who doesn't want to extract the most $ per chip) - they've been one of the better ASIC companies!

Let's see if the rumors about a new Bitfury chip turn out to be true!
