In the first post they had a green dot and said "live"
I thought that might be what you were referring to, that just means that the project is in an active stage of development. It does
not mean that there are working prototypes or that the product design is finished or is available. To date, the only designs that are close to being production ready are the Coindesk A1 Wasp and the Hive backplane. Below are the specifications for the A1 Wasp:
Are you selling populated or unpopulated boards?
What's the min # of chips requred to populate the board?
Primarily, we will offer populated Wasps, but offering empty boards are always possible.
The number of chips per Wasp depends on the chip being used. For Example:
A1 Wasp. (LIVE)- Bitmine A1 Chips Available December
- 240 Gh/s Overclocked (6 chips); more likely, with untested chips, 200 GH/s per board
- Nominal total 2000 Gh/s, or almost 2 full backplanes (assuming that all chips are fully working AND overclockable to 40GH - not really likely, but our software can get the most possible out of them).
- Nominal likely total hashing from 50 chips (and this is all that Bitmine guarantees) is 48 x 25 = 1.2 TH on 12 boards
- Best case: 0.0180625 BTC Gh/s, or about $3 USD GH/s
- Likely case: 0.0301 BTC/GH/s, or about $5 USD GH/s
Minion Wasp. (LIVE)- Black Arrow Minion Chips Available February
- 520 Gh/s Standard (4 chips)
- Total 2080 Gh/s
