I need to ask, what is the value of buying this miner? With only 300K Scrypt and 8G SHA256 what is the point? We're talking over $62 per GH when looking at mining Bitcoin, that's insane.

You don't pay enough.

*facepalm* Thanks!
No worries man. I forget to check profiles all the time. I'm so used to people hiding all their info. asicbtc has been pretty good about staying reachable.

Chances are, the units are still in the sorting facility in Hong Kong. Orders likely wont go live until after CNY, but I could be wrong.

DHL is now saying that it's almost here. Maybe I'll have it up 24 hours from now.

It's the first scrypt asic ever. Right, but isn't it about as effective as a Radeon 7790 and uses about as much power? If the ASIC isn't any more efficient than a GPU the cost is pretty prohibitive.

BTC = sha256 LTC = scrypt
This unit supports both methods, so you can also mine altcoins with them.

Can anyone that is getting one to test, take some pictures of it, test out how many watts it's pulling, what does it sound like?
It looks like an air filter that is made into a cylinder with a 140mm fan on top.

$500 per unit seems grossly overpriced. I don't think that will ever ROI unless you pay in fiat and price per coin shoots up like crazy.
