20k chips already paid for
The 68 boards, at 16 chips per, 1088 chips and assembly paid for
Now the coming expense on the quote with the Engineering firm for the remaining chips to be assembled onto the Avalon clone boards

Is the above accurate?

Yes


Thanks for clearing that up Bargraphics.

And a warning to anyone else on here who wants to ask a simple question - don't bother, it's not worth the hassle as you can see.  Roll Eyes

I think we're missing a Bitfunder "official" News announcement about the transfer because not everyone can follow this thread. Something with bullet points and lists. Also I'm assuming 30th Oct dividends are suspended now for everyone right?

1. Get a BTC address with signing ability (bitcoin-qt...)
2. Update BF account to that addresss
3. Send shares to ...
4. ...
5. Profit 6th Nov?

one can deduce with relatively high certainty that these are coming ASSEMBLED

lol - so you didn't know yourself! I thought as much.  Wink


Well done Bargraphics, but it looks like finlof is jumping on your coat tails now pretending he knew the details all along.

Hey Mr finlof, yeah look dude, I like have a job, and I can't be on here every minute making sure there isn't a single Ken post that I don't miss. So how do you like that excuse?!

Such a big big deal made over 4btc a week split between 10Mills shares. lol I'm glad these Klondikes are on the way cause that extra 0.00001 Satoshis they will make me will bring my early retirement so much closer.

In other words, pay attention to the important stuff, if you bailed because of the Klondikes finlof?Huh

LOL! Cheesy Cheesy

Thanks for the update Ken.   Smiley

While it's a small victory it's a victory none the less. Rome wasn't built in a day and these klondikes will give the company an opportunity to hone their skills in preparation for scaling up the operation.

I have no shame in sharing my optimistic view on things even though I get shot down relentlessly by the trolls.

After all, as Helen Keller once said, "Optimism is the faith that leads to achievment.  Nothing can be done without hope and confidence. "

achievement.  (i mean seriously doesn't your computer show red lines under the misspelled words like mine does?)

and interesting you should mention helen keller cause your post above doesn't smell of optimism.  it smells of blind zealotry.  this isn't a religion dude (even if it were i would then have to make some analogy to the blind leading the blind and all that).  but i guess everyone likes to cheer on their team.

ok guess i am done being an asshole.  sorry i get it from my mother and father.  yes they are both still alive.  yes you may make fun of them (and me) all you want.  i don't take things that personally.



So you make spelling mistakes yourself but criticise others who do the same?

Your post is akin to beating the wife then apologising.

now bargraphics you did exactly what these younglings wanted you to.  you are an enabler.  give a man a fish or teach a man to fish.  everyone has their own strategy.  i aspire to teach a man to teach others to fish, but dont quite make it most of the time.

And I can see why not.  Anyway, thanks for the shares and your contributions as a non-shareholder.  Do you have any parting words before you leave us?
not going anywhere dude.  like i said this is more entertaining than watching "stories" (and much more interactive as well).

Why all this discussion about 300GH/s - 400GH/s?

I am hoping that we get the prototype miner online hashing at several TH/s before we even get this old "Klondike" board.

Sorry it blew my mind that these "supporters" of ActM since the beginning can't even remember what is or was being done by their beloved company.

Hopefully my post helps people that don't have the time to look up everything as well.

if i were still invested i would also ask if ACtM's current avalons have fully populated boards (4 each) and are running at the highest speed available (close to 120gh/s).  a simple 1200 watt power supply upgrade may be needed to do the trick.  if they arent fully populated, additional boards can be purchased for 2.5BTC/each to get up to the max hash (they've been available on this website for a couple weeks now i believe, and i've already purchased 2 of the 4-module units and resold them for close to double my money).  these 6 avalons currently hashing "should" be providing around 700gh/s.

Hey Mr finlof, instead of chatting with the most annoying Troll on this thread why don't you answer Minerpart on his Klondikes board question.

Apparently you know where they are coming from and who is putting the chips on? Where did you see that again?

You've had about an hour and a half to to find out now but you are still silent.

do your own research in this company you believe in so much.  the ordered avalon chips were to build avalon clones.  these klondikes come with chips.
listen guys (or girls, or trannys or whatever you want to be)...  some of us work and dont just sit with one hand on the f5 key and one hand... well let's not talk about that cause i might get my post deleted.

DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.  it's as easy as putting the word klondike in the search field at the top right of this page and clicking search.  one can deduce with relatively high certainty that these are coming ASSEMBLED as the payment for the boards and to have them assembled was paid back in june or july (remember these were supposed to be completed and delivered back in July...).  seriously guys if i still had close to 100k shares in this company and i didnt know answers to questions like this that would make me a REALLY BAD INVESTOR.  luckily i dont have those shares anymore so no worries.

believe me when i say that i hope all this works out for anyone who has $ invested.  i dont want people to lose money, whether i like them or not.  but if you lose because you put a bunch of money into something that you dont really know about, i'm not going to feel sorry for you when you complain that things didnt happen according to original plan or didnt go how you wanted.

OK as finlof has gone back under his rock (Edit - he's back horay!) I'll stick my neck out again and ask about the Klondikes.

I've read the first few pages of BkkCoins thread and the last few. He started the Klondike project but doesn't seem to have been around for a month, maybe more. So there are other developers in charge now. Anyway  chips have been put on these boards but there were firmware issues as recently as two days ago which were giving 20% errors - a big deal. But now the code has been sorted.

Hi all,

The firmware issue was found and fixed a few hours ago!   I've confirmed it on my test unit as have others.  ZERO HW errors and over 5gh/s @350MHz.  The K16's are a go!

I think there will be some code cleanup, boot loader and a few other more minor things yet, but I suspect all the assemblers will start pumping them out now.

And it's only recently that Steamboat has had his chips running successfully on a Klondike - he sent the news by email I can't find it on the thread to date this email.

So is Steamboat sending out Klondikes with his Avalon clones attatched? It's the only conclusion I can see. If not Ken is putting the chips on?


It's not a big issue, hasn't been in a long time since the difficulty went mental, these boards if they are not hashing above 307GH will make us 4btc a week. Not each no.

I am officially making the offer -- donate the hash power to a hobo on the street and I will supply the missing dividends every week to shareholders without any depreciation due to network growth.  This is a win win, Ken, maybe you can redeem yourself here.. better take me up on this
you can actually go right now to http://avalon-asics.com/shop/ and buy over 400gh/s (either 4 of the 4 module or 8 of the 2 module (i would recommend the 2 module because they are already overclocked to the max and no need to replace the power supply)) to be delivered within a week for 48BTC.  i wonder what the cost was/is on those klondikes

'Do your own research in this company which you believe in so much. The ordered Avalon chips were to build Avalon clones.  These Klondikes come with chips.'


Fixed that for you. Maybe you should learn to spell, punctuate and use grammar correctly before you try being smart on here and correcting other peoples spelling?


if you are going to call people names, learn to spell psychopath.

Asking the question was part of my research. So where does it say these boards come with chips? I'd prefer to see a believable source rather than believe some smart arse on here.



 

Lots of posts on the Klondike thread mentioning seperately sourced chips, so what's the deal finlof?


Very, very cool. Nice work guys.

Even though I refunded my chips, I'm still glad to see progress on the boards. After following the thread for so long, it'll be nice to know the design is working, even if I never see any.
