i'm very interested in your group buy as i rather dread having spend the next two weeks glued to my computer so i can jump on a blade when they get released. however i have to say i would feel more confident if escrow were involved. Is this a possibility? I would be willing to pay escrow fees

Look at group buys Canary is the man on USB's from group buys.   No need for escrow in this case... look in group buys.  So just order and sleep well Smiley.

Canary,

Sounds like these new units will be turnkey ready w/o having to buy added parts?

Will these be 32 chip for the regular and 16 chip for the mini?

Any word on shipping date from China?

Thank you
no more details have been released... we're all waiting

I'd be down for 2 of the 10Gh and 2 of the 5Gh blades myself.

Friedcat when's the announcement? Smiley ??

I'm holding out for a few of these also. Though I think we may need to see a price cut because of the current profitability outlook = not good at current price.

Can someone planning to purchase AM blades explain their justification of the expense, given the anticipated exponential difficulty increase (see http://thegenesisblock.com/latest-shipment-of-avalon-asics-could-increase-network-hashrate-by-500/ )?

I've never understood the popularity of AM hardware at these price points so any insight would be awesome.


AM is the only company that delivers fast.

Buy 2 blades pay 37-38btc sell one on ebay for 30-32 btc . check the ebay price on a 10gh blade

 keep the other one at a cost of 5- 7 btc .

I do this with the asic sticks I purchased from the op about 36 usb sticks

 He ships the sticks quickly
 I  sold about 14 on ebay
thus making the 22 I kept a good price.


-----check ebay prices on sticks. Many of us buy from canary-i-t-m and sell some to ebay buyers


back to the topic

To canary-i-t-m i would consider buying 2 small ones. I am trying to round up the coins. best regards phil

lame... still no announcement. at this point 10 ghs in block erupters (10,000/330=30 BE) @ .55 = 16.5 is cheaper than a blade... due for a price drop even before first announcement!!

I doubt Canaryinthemine is interested in dealing with Escrow. He has sold 10.000+ USB Eruptors already without a single complaint. Pretty sure you can trust him with 10-20 BTC..

I'm thrilled to see new ASIC products but I'm unsure about the merits of the blades over the Eruptors.

a 10GH/s = 32 Eruptors

So basically buying a blade is more expensice than the same hash power bought with Eruptors.

What are the benefits of the blade

Power consumption? stand alone solution?

Just an FYI for comparison:
15 Block Erupters = 7.2BTC, 5.04 GH/s (plus USB hubs)

30 Block Erupters = 14.4BTC, 10.08 GH/s (plus USB hubs)

My feeling is the Blades will be a lot cheaper than the Eruptor combination. Maybe a little more energy efficient too.

not going to happen.  ASICMiner will not miss-price its products to gut one line over another.  both product lines should have similar pricing in the long run..

Hopefully the price will come in around .5 BTC/ 1GH. That's the magic number.

the BE have expensive packaging for 1 asic... the colored finish, mounting on usb stick. and retail packaging. i would assume his cost is close to $5-10 and with the next price drop it wont be heavily profitable to keep selling these much lower than .2btc. on a side note no wonder why asicminer dividends were so high selling these at 1.99BTC with a production cost of .05 - .1BTC

whereas the blades they slam 30-32 asics on a board the cost per asic vs BE is probably 30-40% cheaper production wise and historically the larger units HAVE to be cheaper Hash per $ than smaller units.

my original point was that blades were supposed to be announced 7/10 and due to the delays and BE price drops there will HAVE to be a price drop from the announced price of 9.88/18.88BTC before the first one is even delivered!


one last point is due to the BE drops suddenly undelivered Avalon chips (unmounted bare chips @ $7-9USD) which are slower than BE are going to be too expensive... asicminer is gonna cause a lot of heartburn with avalon and BFL preorders.
