He may well still have some financial interests in the BTCS merger, even if he isn't employed full time there. We shouldn't be surprised if he doesn't respond.

I wonder if Zvi/software lead is still with the combined company?

Zvi co-founded his own company this year and is working for MS, so if he's still involved he's definitely a busy man.

what's MS? Microsoft?
Edit: nevermind, it's just Microsoft's TED team (maybe a consult or a summer gig), re Spondoolies it says-Present.

TED is a Microsoft team that does work to repair Microsoft reputation in the open sourse community. It is a new initiative. Mostly I work with startups in the  Microsoft Ventures lab.
I am involved in Spondoolies where my experience is needed (I am allowed by my Microsoft agreement) ,  because we are friends but I am not the main developer anymore. After implementing 2 years of miner SW one has to move on.

TED is not a "Microsoft team". TED is "a global set of conferences run by the private non-profit Sapling Foundation, under the slogan "Ideas Worth Spreading".

Microsoft may have a TED team that develops presentations to make at TED conferences but Microsoft is not TED.

Not trying to spill any beans here, but I do think it's significant that Microsoft is hiring from the Bitcoin-space for its TED-team if that's the case.

From what i know about it i think it is a very bad idea with very good marketing.
It dont see how this can be profitable to anyone involved. I dont see consumer mining as a real market in the future. It was fun,  but IMO it's a dead horse.

But I dont follow on the forum anymore,  so pls don't post me here) And microsoft ted is not the lectures ted,  it's "technical evangalism domain"  or thomething like that)))

[Biodom]

Not to Zvi...

Typical Microsoft...took a word (TED) that everybody uses for something else (open conferences) and in familiar fashion "extended" it to something completely unrelated.

Curious minds want to know: approximate pricing?

I suspect this is one of those "if you have to ask, you cannot afford it" scenarios.

[Subw]

Nice! At last bitmain prices would go down, congrats to those who purchased at never-ever-ROI price. What is the MOQ for SP50 BTW?

[Gladimor]

What is the price per SP50?

[OgNasty]

Review units? 

[Biodom]

What is the price per SP50?

has to be around 25-26K shipped to be competitive considering that competitors can lower their prices. ~180 days to profitability at these numbers.

Lol, what a beast! This is worse than the s7.

[TheRealSteve]

Thanks for the update
Edit: Oh, also a slight error in the announcement/PR: "(15J/GH compared to 0.61J/GH)".  15J/Gh * 110000Gh = 1,650,000J ... maybe that troll needs to change his thread about nuclear fusion miners to read Spondoolies-Tech instead

Lol, what a beast! This is worse than the s7.

Worse for consumers, yes.  For datacenter type operations, it's much better.  You don't even need a rack - the thing is its own rack

[p3yot33at3r]

What a monster 

Only available through bulk though......

@ SP-Tech: Will you accept a group buy?

[dogie]

What is the price per SP50?

Probably more, it includes PSUs.

These are 11U = 24 x 19".
6x 120mm fans = a grid of 14 x 10"s of fans
And so the 10x 1600W PSUs *appear* to be the same 1U ones from the SP35 (Artesyn DS1600SPE-3).

In a pack of 48 they're upwards of $400 per unit which is probably approaching $300 with Spondoolies quantities.

So that's $3,000 of PSUs. Shipping will almost certainly be palletised, those things are way too big and heavy to go through normal routes so that's a fair chunk but not really different to anyone else.

more will be uncompetitive, especially for low electricity cost regions.
they will probably promote selling "shares" in Sp-50 (at 10Th each or so)
