Ninja thanks for the support.

Yeah our online carts will become available soon

Just finalizing our pricing structure etc. everything should be basically as advertised. (so far) Just waiting on our final tests and PCB negotiations to come through

Another South African here and fairly excited about this.

You say you will ship in 4 batches, but there's no dates. Price is just as important as delivery date when making a decision. Hope you can have the dates soon as I need to make a call on a this and a couple of other options.

Hi Zama,

Our estimated dates are Oct/Nov, the batches will be shipped as per the demand.
IE We will be ready for shipment in late October/Nov then as soon as each batch finishes. it gets shipped.

There will be more clarification on that when we get our cart online and when we officially start. (2 weeks)

If you have any further queries or need clarification let me know

Regards

Ok cool ... will hold off any purchases for 2 weeks. Would also love a meet/greet if possible before ploughing hard earned coins.

Thanks Sitarow  ^_^

And guys please remember, we are not trying to undercut any of the Bitfury Competitors, but our goal is to be one of the best options to chose from. especially for people that cant get the units on other places, for our local community and also let the community have a say in what they want. that is our goal and we will strive to live up to that

@ Dawie, yeah thanks. That is the plan.

Most of us really need opitions,not am,not Avalon.

[leadnor]

Thanks for all the feedback so long guys Everything is looking good for us to meet our estimations. Just a few more things to tie up and then our Cart will go live

What is the power draw on these things?

[Bitcoin_Bing]

I love this.

ASICs in South Africa with no tax imports or waiting for shipment.

I will also invest in them as soon as I can.

What would the estimated power consumption on these units be?

Estimations are roughly 1W/GHs

Asked the same question. ^^^ is the answer.

Another few questions,

I noticed on your website you will be using the Raspberry Pi (included with the ASIC). Will you develop your own OS or will you go with the Minepeon release?

If you develop your own, will it be Linux or android based?

Hi

We are in chats with Bitfury regarding this. As to what will be the best method/OS to use. We will also test. I dont think that it will make that big of a difference. But it is a good Q, will look into putting this up on the site as well as soon as we have an answer Feel free to comment on this and to give suggestions with reasoning behind it etc.

[Bitcoin_Bing]

Well, I just wanted to know.

I am not a very big android fan. The Minepeon release is Linux based. It's designed for the ARM processor the Pi holds. Nice thing about Minepeon is, you don't need a screen, keyboard and mouse connected to the Pi. You type the ip address of the Pi into your pc web browser and login. From there you can set pools, see graphs, etc.

I like that method a bit more. Less clutter.

Hey Icebear, Here is the latest information we have. Also posted on our facebook page.

We are still waiting for a few items to come into line for the final pricing and shopping cart but we plan on having an open cart on approximately the 12th.
 We are undertaking a website re-design so will let you know when that is live.
 Initial sales and unit reserve are good we have more than half our stock labeled as "sold"

Hi leadnor,

I know us miners are an impatient bunch but: any update on the Oct./Nov. delivery estimate?

Your guys pricing is excellent but the network difficult difference between the beginning of October & November could be anywhere from 100-300% for all we know with all the new ASIC miners coming online. I'm trying to make up my mind on where to order my next rig & my funds become available right around the time your store opens for orders. Thanks!

Hi,

I will have an update regarding our units early next week everything is still looking good for a Oct/nov delivery date though. I understand that the network difficulty could be a lot higher. that is true. Wish I could do something about that

[DyslexicZombei]

Understood. Thanks for the quick reply! Timing works out better for me whatever I decide.

What is very helpful in your case is that Bitfury doesn't have to rely on anyone else for chips.

Hi DyslexicZombei,

Yeah it is nice that bitfury doesnt rely on anyone else for his chips He has been a real help to us regarding our startup, and also to get bitcoin asics into Africa, which is awesome. I respect him a lot.
