I'm tempted to buy a fpga from btcfpga.com.... they seem to ship fast the product hehehehehe, but I think it is to late for fpga's mining.
Do you think that BFL is going to ship the asic on october, as they said?
Probably December or January... Interested why the BTCFPGA only has ONE review...$1,000 for a product with approx. same Mhash as BFL's $600 product

Great! so I have more time to save BTC for at least 3 jalapenos ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I think, based on price and MH/s of jalapenos, that every jalapeno will be equal to 1 GPU. So if right now I'm mining with 2 GPUs at 350MH/s with 2 jalapenos at 3.5GH/s I'm going to produce the same BTC in the same time, so the ASIC is a 10x multiplication for the GPUs Do this make sense for you?

29 more tickets up.
If anyone doesn't trust BFL, this raffle *does* offer a BTC alternative where you can win the BTC equivelant of the BFL product value on the end-date of the auction.

If it's BTC equivalent, then maybe you can 'call it' and announce some winners! I've done my best to advertise for you. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Now I have enough tickets that I can win all 3, mwuahahaha. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) You can technically win all 3 with 1 ticket. A hash could end with 555555555 or 554557556, either of these would win all three with ticket 155 (example only). 12 more tickets up so more than 40 sold within the last 24 hours!

Is my math wrong, or has this raffle already taken in enough btc to fund the promised prizes + 10% operating fees, even at $10 per coin? I'm guessing it was assumed that this thing would never go on so long.
Have you considered figuring out some fair way to end early or potentially offering additional prizes?

not if he converted BTC to USD to hedge in case BTC price went down. managing all these payments is a lot of hassle Were you here for the price change? a ticket used to be 0.25BTC
