Actually, I think the lesson here is never order from BA again... So far I have only bought from Rockminer and Bitmain both I have been very pleased with. A guy is selling the X1 on Kijiji.. that screen looks so slick!! I wanted on cause it looks cool LOL and it will be great for my alt coin adventures. |

X1 manufacturing – in testing
We have stopped manufacturing X1 and we will be shipping all remaining customers X1.5 which contains 2 chips and hashes at 160-180 Ghash in an attempt to clear the compensation sooner.
Certification for Prospero X1.5 is in progress.
Does this mean that I will get a X1.5 aswell? for my 2x X-1 order compensation?
14nm Bitcoin ASIC
We are still heavily involved in the 14nm ASIC project.
We are happy to report that after bringing on board more talent we have exceeded our initial 0.3W/Ghash target by 4.3 times by employing all techniques possible in ASIC and algorithm design. Our current design efficiency is now 70mW/Ghash (0.07W/Ghash) which allows us to build a 1 Terrahash chip in a single die while using 70 Watts at chip level. This will allow development of a 20Thash machine while using 1.5kw.
We intend to make this chip available for sale only from stock (No pre-orders)
Sounds good, but lets see the end result.. Im sure if you ever do produce 14nm you'll be sub 0.1w.. or well, i hope. |

50% refund is much better than mining back <10% which is about what I'll get from my X1's. And I'm paying electricity on top of it. |

Been happy with my X-1 that I received back in June. No issues to speak in the ~5 months of use so far.

50% refund is much better than mining back <10% which is about what I'll get from my X1's. And I'm paying electricity on top of it. 50 % in lousy chips means max 15-20% ( if you have luck ) cashback from all invested. But I do not agree to such a mess deal. Even if they are located in HK or China. Chinese law is very hard with liars I guess. So there must be a chance with a legal action. |

They said they put me on refund queue but yesterday 2 X3 show up without warning. Cost $250 for customs clearance. Wish they warn me first so I can get cheaper tax rate at customs. Hope this units won't blow up like others.

Good luck to everyone involved in this hot mess. |

Hello David, How are you and the elves doing? Working on that Christmas update I hope! Please tell us Santa will bring us some good news this Holiday Season, mmmm like how bout a option for existing customers to "upgrade" to 14nm units and a piece of the so called company pie like Alpha offered up in their compensation plan, we've stuck with you for this long (through no fault of our own) If BA plans to stick around, they are gonna need US...the original suckers, *cough sorry investors. What do you say David, I'll even offer to travel to the north pole if Santa needs a hand with this. Teamplayer here.

Did you order from minersource or blackarrow? Since minersource is also busy shipping orders even after they promise refunds.. |

Order it directly from BA. 1 unit run well without problem, the other one is crapping out now and then. |

Just thought I'd let everyone know, I have received two X3's. One unit has a fault as I turned it on with power supply so that's me 1 T/h down already before I even begin. I did not receive any compensation they said they were going to give me. I just hope the others don't catch fire.

1 more miner failed after 24 hours and another one dropped 50% hash rate. Think I'm going to have to RMA 3 of the 4 miners. But considering the price of shipping back and the price I'm going to have to pay for VAT again, I don't even know if it is going to be worth it. |
