ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[spartan82]

Well it's a great advertising tool and I believe a lot of users would be encouraged to use this banner across the board most especially if there were benefits for affiliates to earn certain percentage on fees for share sales.. Just a thought.. Havelock! Lol

There are those exact benefits in place!  Users earn a percentage from both publishers and advertisers who sign up through the banners, if you are logged in the page wraps the banner in the referral link.  This is probably not the thread to discuss this.. but check it out sometime. 

Awesome! Thanks for the info mate I will definitely be looking into this then for sure.

The new cube looks pretty darn good. Here's to hoping for 600 watts at the wall with a price tag around 1k.

No way! Will be over 800 watts at wall.

 So is my space heater, and it doesn't generate bitcoin... whats a few measly watts difference....

A few measly watts? Lol some people are paying $0.30/kwh.. Buddy lets take ten of these miners, that's a sizable increase in an electricity bill that leads to a smaller profit margin for mining Bitcoin. But hey who's counting right?

Meh..   If i had to choose between 800w at the wall, and lesser tech + higher a/c cost, I'm sure that a few antminers will end up in the trash heap..   

I'd be happy if they pull anywhere close to 800w..   600w would be a dream, but what i'm saying is that I wouldn't pass it up due to a 200-300watt difference in estimates.

Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Regardless of what you would mind or not, others might find that over 1W/gh is a bit more than expected at these times especially. I personally think we have come far enough to surpass that kind of output in electricity per gh.. We can only wait and see

Here is some information about Spondoolies-Tech:

With shipping not until September and possibly 0.3-0.4 W/ghash, AM chips in hand today appear to beat them

The September batch is what's selling right now, but first SP30 units are supposed to go out at the end of July and also there is another batch that is already sold out for August. Good luck selling 60PH to miners from July onwards!

The SP-30 is very impressive. But if e.g. XBTec really manage to keep their promises on their BE 200 powered 2 TH/s Pacific 2000 miner (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=626694.0), those 2-3 months and their also quite competitive price tag should make life more complicated for Spondoolies.

With the dropping rate of the BTC from the U.S. Gov selling off the 29,656 BTC, does anyone anticipate any significant movement in the mining industry/total network hashrate? Since the drop of the news here, BTC has taken quite a tumble from mid 600 to now upper 500s.

Here is the timeline of event:

June 23rd: Bidder Registration
June 27th: Auction from 6am - 6pm EDT
June 30th: Winners notified
July 1st: Wire Transfer Deadline for Winning Parties

This is not meant to start a flame war about political views or speculation of BTC price in the coming weeks; rather how does this potentially effect all current miners with potential massive price swings in either way. Moreover, does this news mean a change of plans for the end of June and early July?

It might affect the price in the short term, this combined with the increasing fiat conversions due to increasing merchant acceptance, might bring a decreasing price along with a slowing of the hashrate for the short term.

However in the long term increasing merchant adoption and I guess the perception that people with over 200K in liquid assets aka rich people buying Bitcoin and also willing to trade them for fiat will bring increasing recognition.

As to how this affects the mining sphere, it may result in a buildup of extra units or all the positive sentiment might mean more miners joining the network instead, as more people hear about Bitcoin and start seeing it positively.

Kind of like Friedcats chip theory sell chips first have more miners then make their own miners then increase the total users.

So Kind of Wishy-Washy for me not sure which effect will have more impact.
Increasing positive sentiment or perceived divisibility with the FBI for now.

in short, it legitimizes B/bitcoin further which helps it for the long run.

Yeah it really seems like people are selling on good news right now.

Obligatory.. Weak hands something something.

I can only see this as good news and potential fuel to a media frenzy.

"Silk Road X Bitcoin X Global Criminal Drug Operation X FBI X Big Money X Auction"

This story writes itself so I will be a little surprised if news networks don't pick this up when they talk about recent news or economics or stocks or something. There's pretty much a little bit of something in there for everyone. Just the news alone will cause people already in BTC to probably get further into BTC in some sort of anticipation (that may not/probably won't happen).
