[ANN]UltraMiner FPGA is Live on Indiegogo!

[arm_race]

Can you explain why one would choose Net or Net advanced versions? And which alogos will work on each of those?

the Net and Net advanced versions are for FPGA hobbyists and developers we don't plan to develop mining algorithms on them... thanks.

Understood, we are working hard to shorten the pre-sale period and remove most uncertainties beforehand by building the demo prototype boards and sort out the production details.
also we consider launch it on the crowd supply in the future which is a more reliable platform to many customers.
the reason for doing pre-sale, is that we need enough volume to bring down the cost, in order to sell the board at the low price. so we set the goal to the the lowest quantity we can make this economically, if not met, then you will get full refund from the platform.

HI Everyone, Agilmine is back!  

After months of planning and hardworking, We are happy to announce that today we have officially launched the Ultraminer FPGA miner campaign on crowdfunding platform Indiegogo! As some of you may know we are bunch of developers/hobbyists who had previously built a prototype fpga universal miner board named "Agilmine A1" which had already been sent to some forum members for verification. People loved its simplicity, easy setup and power efficiency. This time we are going to upgrade the design with Xilinx UltraScale+ Kintex KU3P which is from Xilinx's top-line 16nm process chip family. This is the highest performed and most power efficient FPGA series you can find in the market. You should expect 1.5-2x performance boost than Agilmine A1 prototype at about the same power consumption (20-25w). That is about 1.5x hash performance than a GPU, at only 1/10 of GPU's power consumption.

Indiegogo pre-order price of UltraMiner FPGA: $399

Please do check out our campaign page and website see if you like to support, or pre-order!
If we didn't meet the goal before campaign ends or we won't deliver, you will receive full refund from Indiegogo.

* Please be noted that since "Crypto" is prohibited on Indiegogo (or any other crowdfunding platforms..). We are only allowed to campaign for a generic FPGA dev board there *
The information regarding cryptocurrency mining, including the estimated hashrate and power consumption can be found on our website page

www.agilmine.com

Estimated hashrate table:


All the mining algorithm bitstream files will be free to download, 0 dev fee, and we will provide some open source design framework to boost the 3rd party algorithm development on ultraminer platform.

Our mission is to make a FPGA miner that is accessible and affordable to every miner/enthusiast/hobbyist in the crypto community, which in our believe would benefit the decentralization and hence the long term prosperity and diversity of cryptocurrency industry.

Our plan is to deliver this board in 3 months! We have already locked down the price terms with Xilinx USA, and arranged the manufacturing factories in China and USA to build this miner for you. If you have specific questions or concerns please do let us know!

Thank you for the time!

We are here to answer questions and concerns. You can reach us via email and on discord as well.

Mailist Product Update: http://[Suspicious link removed]/dMfjhQ

In the current market, I personally think we had better keep suspicious about pre-sale mentioned in the post. Pre-sale means that you who sale UltraMiner pass the risk to us buyers, which smay be irresponsible.

2/28 Update:
We have placed a order for 10 Xilinx FPGA sample parts to build the first batch of Ultraminer prototype boards! We also received a loaner KCU116 FPGA evaluation board from Xilinx, to be used for algorithm development, design reference and accurate power estimation. We have great work ahead of us!

awesome! right on track

Im surprised so few people signed up for this card on indiego.
Did so many people get burned on previous fpga buys that everyone is now  playing 'the waiting game'?

Thanks!

Thanks! We are on the original track for the demo board development and delivery. we hope more people will sign up once they see the live demo, then we will re-launch the campaign. we believe such a low cost/hobbyist friendly fpga dev board will not only benefit the crypto community, but many other fields as well.
