UK money, US marketing, Eastern European development
Let's see what they will ship... Strange that they did not publish any technical info.
Hope they did not just hack linkedin accounts.
good detective work... an odd mix of people.. but hopefully in a few days we'll see how it pans out. hope its not another xcrowd.
You think this was uk money? its possible... perhaps middle eastern money.
they say somewhere between $1.9m invested and $2.5m invested, which seems cheap to get a 28nm asic for "only" $2.5m (the NREs, expedite fees, wafer production and system production costs are about double that in total)... i suspect it costs a lot more to get a 28nm asic made, especially a high performance one (they said 550 GH/s) that would need high performance packaging and cooling as it needs to run very hot. They also said it was 0.8 W/GH, which would mean the chip is nudging past the 400 watts per package that seems extremely hard to cool something that hot... only liquid cooling could do it, .. just. unless of course its not one asic at 550 GH/s, and is a collection of slower asics that together are 550 GH/s
Our initial investment, that means in July, was 4 mil $. As for the chips, we use liquid cooling and we are almost ready to deliver the system.
More info coming soon
Have a great day!
