ZoomHash Prodcuing Custom Scrypt Asics?

[thm001]

Just was on zoomhash.com this morning and it looks like they will be releasing some new scrypt only asics near the end of the month?
(The Wolf ~ 1.26mh, The Lion 13.5mh, and The Dragon 27mh )

Anybody have any more info? The surge of Scrypt ASICs is getting exciting
Would love to know what kind of chips are under the covers.

Im just guessing, but I guess its the same or nearly the same as the ones Zeusminer is selling as they are the same price/performance. If not, they are on the same performace/price level.

They are dealers. I doubt they made these themselves but use a rebranded version of it. Zoomhash is also coming out with their own hosting option.

The question is.. what chipset are they and what mining software is used?

[Kokok]

Looks like the WOLF has been replaced by the 1.2 <H/s ZEUS miner....

Be careful with these re-branded pre-orders.  Zoomhash has a very good reputation, and I will probably be jumping over to them as my primary source for ASICs (from GAWminer), but they are going to be at Zeusminer's mercy when it comes to delivery.

Also I don't think you'll get that equivalent hashing power that Zuesminer is currently offering. Why buy 1.2 mh at 199 when you get an extra 60%? at this point for buying from zuesminer. Granted I prefer and will prefer zoomhash to zuesminer, I just can't pass something like that up.

Well there is that $50+ shipping fee to the US to think about when ordering direct.

The wolf appears to be missing completely from the product offering.

I wonder whats going on with that. I ordered two of the "wolf" and on my orders screen it has been replaced with the "blizzard" including free hashing power. Has it been replaced with zeusminer???

What would suck about that is I bought two blizzards from zeus for $450 and the two from zoomhash for $350. Preording from zeusminer directly is costly!!!!

*Also, the "ships May 28" has been removed for the blizzard

[sandpaper]

How much hashing power have you / will you receive? That is the only reason I bought off zuesminer directly. They luckily lumped in $50 shipping for 3 of the blizzards, but damn I would have just gone through zoomhash if they had the same offer.

[dreamreamer]

Currently the %15 off for zoomhash (founders coupon) still works, I just ordered another one. $169/shipped for the 1.2mh blizzard with 60% free hashing. Thats what $84 per MH. The 60% ends May 14 and it goes down to 40%.

I do wonder how they keep track of who gets how much free hosted hashing with all the orders and terms   

[jgauthier]

My order screen still shows two different orders for the Wolf. It has not been changed to the Blizzard.

I have emailed their support team for answers.

[Bunnywinkles]

ZoomHash is doing the same offer. I am thinking they teamed with Zeus.

I paid 510 for 3 of the blizzards with the extra hashing power at zoomhash

Christopher 16:53:
Hi there. How can I help today?

Jacob 16:53:
The wolf has now became the Bilzzard? Do those who preordered already still get the additional hashing?

Christopher 16:53:
Hey Jacob, yes you should

Christopher 16:54:
If there is an issue with it at the time and for some reason we don't set you up with it just open up another chat.

Jacob 16:54:
Ok, do you know when the cloud hashing will be live?

Christopher 16:55:
No, there isn't a set date yet. Soon though, everything's already being set up and tested.

Jacob 16:55:
Ok thats cool, just wanted to see what was happening

Jacob 16:55:
Thanks!

Can you  point these at any pool, or must they be one of these cloud hashing pools?

Blizzard has been removed from the site now, and I was called. They told me they will not be shipping it due to power consumption issues, and that I could either have 5% off another miner or a refund. I took the refunds, as the next miner would mean I have to pony up another $150, even after discount.

Get some Blades

More likely re-branding. Just like Hash Master is doing also.

[jgauthier]

I emailed them yesterday looking for an update on my two outstanding orders with these blizzards.  Haven't heard from them yet.

[holylacross]

Wow I really hope that they didnt just drop The Blizzard and will hold true to our orders. I've been looking forward to the ASIC for a month now and for them to just cancel our orders is absolutely ridiculous. I have contacted support yesterday and today with no response. It is the weekend so I hope by tomorrow I will have an answer on these major changes.
I'm almost sicken to read this news
