I don't get it, which scrypt ASIC can you buy right now?

[jjj0923]

Whats wrong with you people? Don't you realize when 100,000Mh/s hits the alt pools it will cause the price of all the alts to crash?

I bet 99% of the alts Fork to SCRYPT-N just to keep from getting destroyed.

+1 agree
asic scrypt will make ALT price crash
too much asic monster will destroy alt  
need Fork to SCRYPT-N ASAP

and by the way - we don't need asic to crash the prices - look at Vertcoin and the X11 coins - no one is interested. The prices are in the dumps

here's a fact - GPU mining will become a thing for the nerds - this market is going more and more to people with hashing power - it's plain and simple. There's a train coming down the tracks you can either climb on board or get out of the way to avoid being run over....and trust me - I feel your pain - I have three GPU mining rigs, but I embrace change not fight with algo's and I have multiple asic miners and it's a lot less stressful mining with asics and I can focus on managing my coins and not babysitting rigs.

and my electric bills are less also!

there are over 20,000 gridseeds running and they havn't crashed alt prices....

the sky is falling...

hashra units are very similar permance wise to what inosilicon resellers are selling here in the forums and are more expensive

so probably based on innosillicon too edit - its zeus hardware and will be outdated by the time they ship

i think ill pass and wait for price/mhs to drop to knc level and see if its still worth it

[cinnamon_carter]

the original question asked, never really got answered

does anyone have these in hand now, working,

if so which

i find it hard to believe these units were developed

the cost of asic development is very very high

the price of scrypt 1024 coins is no where near enough to really trigger the market,

i guess it is not imossible

seems crazy

well - I have gridseed blades and I think I'm going to order a 30mhs hasra unit on monday - they're offering a nice discount and it will double my hashing power.

the only one thats currently available is gridseed 5.2mhs blade or 0.3mhs heatsink

it works fine but is overpriced and wont pay off

everything else you can see is just hype

nothing else except gridseed has been shipped and tested yet

Seriously, don't buy scrypt ASIC even if you can buy it right now. You won't recover your cost before the massive difficulty hike.....

Difficulty hike on which coins? With at least 5 new coins every day how is difficulty an issue?

you're spelling skills leave a lot to be desired - LOL

but the 'Falcon' is a good deal compared the 30Mhs Hashra unit I was getting ready to order.

burner - thanks for the new from gawminers - I started a thread on the asic cost per mhs wars and I wrote about them.

cool - I sent them an email - I want to order one.

I have two A2 terminator-90 in my room right now and have tested for 48 hours,  i will give some comments on this miner
1) the hash rate:
    it is true that it can perform a 86 M H/s even on the pool, but there is still some annoying problem.
    1) sometimes, one or two blade of 6 blades will only perform half of its expected hash rate and you need re-start the miner to get it back
    2) one of the two miners now can only perfrom 30M hash rate, and i have confirmed it is the sd card cause the problem
2) power usage
    that is do doubt that it only need 900W with 6 blade and 90M hash rate
3) temperature
    compared with A1 chip based 1T dragon miner, the temperature of this miner is very low, only a little warm on the surface when the room temperature is about 25 degree. it is very like the first version of A1 chip based 1T bitcoin miner.

4) shipment issue
   all of the two miners cannot work after shipping from shenzhen to nantong, and i finally figure out that one miner has the same issue of loosing cable, but another was repaired after replacing the raspberry pi.

Suggestion:
As i know, this A2 terminator will put into market within 10 days, but you would better find a good supplier who can provide quick supply when you have problem, otherwise you will lose a lot if you cannot get it online as soon as your receive it, the most profit day is the first week you get it online, after that, you will see the difficult go skyrocket.

Welp. right now happens to finally be right now.

I would like to point out that the hosting rates being quoted by Zeus for units to be shipped to GAWMiner (when they actually start shipping, of course) are extremely high. Terry has quoted $5 per megahash per month, which is a large chunk of change considering these scrypt units consume significantly less electricity than Bitcoin miners.

Pcfli has three units hosted for me at $225 each per month, which is less than half of what is being charged by Zeus and GAW.

it should also be mentioned here tha  Hashra has lowered their prices substantially, I will post them a little later.

hey my friend - if you bothered to look at other posts you'd see I apologized for my mistake - but yes - I was like the pot calling the kettle black. LOL
