I have read (can't remember where if I find the link I will put here) that GDDR6 is coming out in 2014 and one GPU with GDDR 6 on should be able to hash at about 2M/Hash +/- 10% for the cost of a 280x today, so I might skip on the first ASICs until they bring out a faster ones for the same value (like BFL with the 600G/hash cards for the same value as 100 a year ago) and that will allow me to see if it is a scam or not.
And I can spend my money on more GPUS for the time being XD to make money now to add up to more GPUs to add up to more and more, I could probs turn my 10GPU rig into about a 50 GPU rig and pay for itself a few times over before the ASICs even hit (25+M/hash total for the 50 card rig) which will be the same as the ASIC but pay for itself a lot quicker. The ASIC will probs pay for itself but for now I think GPU mining until they hit will be the best for miners as they can continue to make money and make more before it hits rather than having money tied up into a nearly non-esictent company which never replies to emails.
Just my 2 cents.

If anyone wanted one of the big Viper's (25Mh/s), I'm selling my spot here:

Has anyone actually contacted Dexcel Designs to confirm their alleged partnership?
Why not just look on their website and see it as news before asking?
Come on people, it is getting crazy with the hate here.
I apologize, you're right. It was the very first article in their scrolling news frame though and I must've missed it.
Anyway, it's not hatred, just plain scepticism. A £405 deposit for the 5 MH/s is not an amount I can really afford to spare in case this thing turns awry.
No problem being skeptical. I still am. At least we don't have to put the full 1350 pounds down. So hopefully they have a working unit before final payment!
I actually wouldn't have put the whole amount down, just too much of a chance. I've been bit by BOTH Avalon and BFL, but got a refund from the former.
But these guys will take more of your deposit the longer it takes them to ship! So if you get tired of waiting after nine months pass, you're screwed. If they even are around to give refunds at that time. The policy isn't even legal, anywhere that I can tell, but people keep giving them money.
There is no comparison to losing 30% of your money and 100%.
I will take the 30% chance. As I've said before, this is a special experiment to take part in. If the owners are genuine (and time will tell), we are behind them and we go in this together.
Also, substantial progress has been made with ASIC's, so even though they are applying it to LTC, we have some history helping us out now.

If you can't just throw away this money DONT MAKE A PREORDER FFS
Come on, there is a big chance for a total loss with one of these, never mess with things you can't afford. If you have money and want a real product, build gpu rigs.

So did I - decided it made sense as well to pull the trigger on this one - too bad their estimates push these devices out to July 2014 before delivery. Go on trollers...give us your worst

Cancellation policy sucks.
Information looks ok if they can get their "ASICs" cheap in bulk
An FPGA is NOT an ASIC
.
FPGA = Field Programmable Gate Array (CAN DO ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN PROGRAM ON IT)
ASIC = Application Specific Integraded Circuit (ONE FUNCTION OPTIMIZED)

Hi Guys,
Just wanted to let you all know that I spoke to a guy a few weeks back called 'IamRichard' as he also had a thread in regard to Alpha-T.
The reason I messaged him is because this company is about a 15min drive from where i am in Manchester and I am keen to check them out and actually speak to the owner and understand time frames before committing any money.
Does anyone actually have any realistic idea of timescales?
Please let me know, also, if there are any other manchester locals, make yourself known!
Thanks
Sev

Well, if this turns out to be a scam, you can probably collect lots of BTC donations by going there and delivering some punches
No but seriously, please go and talk to them, I'd love to know what they have to tell you.
They are in a disgusting area of Manchester, not going to lie, its horrible. haha.
Yeah, one guy I've been speaking to on irc has actually popped past and said its nothing but a sign fronted shop, although, he and I are keen to talk to the owner and have a discussion. Obviously he would get some positive PR from hte meet too because we can provide some honest reporting on our findings!
So Have you been there or not ??
Hahahahaahaha I love seeing people being scammed lmao history repeating itself over and over again.
What will happen with the presumed ASIC-miner when the developers behind Litecoin will change the algorithm to prevent ASIC-mining?
PS: They promised to change it
PS: They promised to change it
i dont understand all this doubt people have, just because butterfly labs had problems doesnt mean this is the archetype for every machine ever launched in this crypto industry. this company is registerd in the UK and has an office building, their partner is a reliable company in India....
Have you checked their address? I have myself, another one here at Bitcointalk did take some pictures...
So they are closing the first round of oreorders. Found enough suckers to loan them money interest free for as long as they want to use it. Still just would like to see a company that could release a product when it was ready to ship instead of this horrible setup. They never addressed the illegal refund policy, or really anything else. Just in this mode of putting out press releases and emails with a little info and not responding to anything else.
I thought all asic companies were required to screw us over using the BFL method?
Are you saying there are options?
