Topic: [ANN] US/North American Bitfury sales NEW STOCK ***NOW SHIPPING*** - page 144. (Read 576785 times)

I'm working on a mining client written in Go to support my bitfury miners which have additional I2C hardware and bank switching which requires slightly different code than chainminer.  It will support bfsb-style miners as well.  Are you or anyone else interested in getting involved with the project?

I appreciate you trying Dave, but time is money my friend and I'm gonna be out at least 10btc in mining now.

Maybe you can compensate some of us with more H cards or let us buy more h cards?  I am not trying to be mean, I am just keeping a business perspective.  I also volunteer to help with investing, chip packaging, logistics or IT infrastructure management.

This would make you guys my #1 store for repeat business.

Very Respectfully,

Dave's choice to host devices for those that have yet to receive their order for free is not the best choice in your opinion. Factor that he is using btc guild and that it may not be the best use of the hardware has also been expressed.

I can see your point of view. Indeed it may seem the simple choice would be to deliver those devices and be done with it.

However I think what Dave is doing is attempting to appease both the customer you/me and the shareholders for who this hardware was originally intended.

I would not be surprised if those that still have not gotten their equipment will not get extra ontop of the BTC that is being mined via Dave's free hosting option. dictated solution.

I think his choice to point that hardware at btcguild.com was the best option as they have the best support network 24/7, I would like to note that I am also pointing my units at btc guild and have gained 18% more bitcoin doing so the last 24 hours then normal) The reason is simple. It gives the most accurate reading and has by far managed the private anti DOS network to maximize the uptime of that hardware.

Finally as to the issue with cgminer and this particular use of the bit fury chips. I have spoken with ckolivas and informed him that I would provide access to one of the units for his testing.

However he mentioned that at this time the GPIO is not conducive to the uniformity and standardization that cgminer is about. At this time it seems best to wait until punin or others incorporates a usb controller of sorts for this product so we can bypass the raspberry pi.

Again I am sure that Dave will do everything possible to make sure we get the best ROI given the situation at hand.

From past experiences in other emergency situations like this, when you are in the thick of the issue expending all your energy and time to resolve problems day in and day out, you are bound to make choices that may not seem to be the best solution from an onlooker not on the ground. It may very well be a bad choice in customer relations while attempting to please the shareholder.

However given the track record I would not be surprised those with late orders get further compensation in one form or another.


Edit: In the spirit of disclosure I do not hold any investments with any public centralized mining operations at this time. This includes, and not limited to, 100TH, ASICminer, and LabRat data processing.

What does that have to do with anything in this discussion? I'm still waiting for 2 more orders from BFL and got piss poor performing units from them.

The real pain is having my BFL order that was placed 14 months ago finally get shipped today only fulfilling 1/3 of the order.

OUCH!

Funny how you make an accusation and fail to apologize when you are wrong! Kano tried to pay for a starter unit and was told no.

The real "pain" is that he is using hardware that was paid for and not shipped to customers at a greater than 16 to 1 ratio from what he is compensating people who are waiting.

good for you!

It wasn't a justification, it was just to ease the pain a little bit (7,5% versus 3%).

I paid for my August order! Which currently sits in Dave's Datacenter hashing away.

no, we are talking about you trying to get some sample hardware before all customers are served with existing/working software solution.

August deliveries is what we are talking about! Your right, you are not punin, so stop talking for him.

And how is that a justification for using paid for and non-delivered hardware for his own purposes instead of walking his talk.


Yes - 50 Rigs - how many outstanding orders - 53

yes I did say that, because I am not punin. I saw the hashes he was getting with cgminer and I cant find a reason why he wouldnt continue to work on it, and provide support.

And no, he didnt deliver to all his customers, he only did august shipment. much more work ahead.

try harder.

He is on PPLNS(3% fee), since he is also getting NMC. Only PPLNS gives merged mining NMC.

You said "suppose", the fact is you do not actually know. He has delivered all the product to his customer, He has his mine running, that might be his "other priorities right now".

No, I said that he has to deliever products to his customers first, and then provide support.

Exactly as I stated.

lol - you basically just said "No"

I suppose he will. He actually managed to get it hashing, but have other priorities right now.
