This is going to be quite entertaining.

In about 3 months the announcement that the cards will come with free cooling blocks, filled with liquid nitrogen immersed in dry ice.

With a warning that if you turn off the cooling before you turn off the Monarch, the card will turn to lava and burn through to the core of the earth.


As we learned from Fukushima, when something burns into the earth, it will eventually hit underground pockets of water. Finally exploding upwards and irradiating all living things.

In this case, expect shrapnel.

Was Shrapnel the name of the two-headed whale?: http://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/1ukm98/twoheaded_whale_washes_ashore_in_baja_california/

So did they show this hashing at ces or just show another prototype design?  Not sure I understand why bother if you don't have a working device?

that still shows a cluster of 'thermal resistors' rather than an ASIC

what a clusterfuck by BFL, and a demonstration that given a second chance, they still cant meet any sort of deadline

24" PCI-E cables with 16AWG wires and stripped ends - great for server PSU mods, best prices https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=563461
No longer a wannabe - now an ASIC owner!

Rather embarrassing for a product that was shipping last month and they don't even have a working prototype yet.

I am not suprised if they deliver the Monarch in 2015.

Well I mean sure if you use some crazy real world rationale, but if your BFL or one of their Fanbois (who seem to be dwindling by the hour unsurprisingly!) you're right on track, hell maybe even a bit ahead of schedule.  They are probably high fiving each other balls deep in hookers and blow as we speak.

YOur boy Inaba just posted on Tweeter



Inaba thanks for BLOCKING ME... you CANT handle a little customer feed back Huh You delay customers shipments and then you dont bless them with some money or and extra rig. You should learn from Cointerra, at less they are trying to make it up to the customers.

Sorry people unfortunate I wont be able to update you any more :/  Tongue Embarrassed Lips sealed Undecided Cry Sad Angry Shocked Smiley Wink Cheesy Roll Eyes

*Monarch UPDATE* From our favorite boy Inaba ~~ More LIEs!
https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/4414-monarch-information.html#post74594

The Monarch roll out rolls forward

The silicon wafers are at the packaging planet as of the 13th of January. Our packaging plant is a multi-purpose plant and will be slicing the wafers into chips as well as packaging them. Traditionally, we've had to send chips to a slicing facility, then to the packaging facility, which incurs time delays. Our packaging facility eliminates that delay. They are also the same packaging facility we have been using for our second iteration 65nm chips and it has worked out very well, so we are familiar with them and they are familiar with us and know what requirements we have for our chips. This should make for fairly smooth sailing as far as packaging goes.

We currently expect our first test silicon chips to take approximately 1 week, give or take a few days, for processing and packaging. As with any cutting edge technology, unexpected problems can delay the process, but it's been fairly routine up to this point, so we are not anticipating any problems. After the packaging process is finished, the chips will be sent to our testing and binning facility in California to bring up the chip for the first time. Since this chip is based off of our 65nm design, the testing/bring up phase should be dramatically reduced from the 65nm chip bring up time, as all the IOs and behaviors are already known quantities. As with the packaging, unexpected problems can cause delays in this area, but we are hoping the bring up/testing process will take approximately one week, give or take a few days.

Once the chip testing is complete and verified, the remaining chips are sent to our Chicago facility for mounting on Monarch boards. At this stage, we will receive the first live Monarch board in our shop in KC a day or two later and we will begin the process of finalizing the firmware and testing out all facets of the board. We have had several prototype boards in for various types of testing, most notably a prototype design with resistors in place of the chips to test electrical connections on the board itself between the various components as well as to test heat load for the cooling system. As the majority of the testing of the board has already been done, unless there's a specific chip/board interface problem (which is unlikely), the board firmware testing and full scale testing "should be fairly quick".

At that point, we will begin assembling the delivery units and start shipping the Monarch shortly after that. Right now, we hope to start shipping the first Monarchs out the door at the very earliest at the very end of January or beginning of February, if there are any problems encountered, it may delay the roll out, but right now everything is going fine and we've encountered no unexpected issues. I will post another update as soon as I have additional information to share.

Which Planet might that be?

Perhaps we now know the mystery behind the long wait times. It is the interstellar travel that takes a while.

Bad chips? Solar radiation and poor shielding during space travel.
