I want to mine but i do not know how to mine and which company coin mine and earn and tell me it is real earning system.

If you really want to mine then there is a lot of information available in Google. Though the entry barrier is quite high as you need an investment of almost INR 1.5L to 2L for a decent 6 GPU build.
The fun part is getting all the stuff together and then making it work.
Its a real earning system but with a chance that you may not recover your money. If you are willing to risk that amount and think that it could be fun learning the new stuff too, only then invest.

If 2 Lacs is a lot of money for you and you want to make mining your first source of income by putting everything in it, then better steer clear of it. Its mostly a high-risk venture which can give awesome returns.

Anybody on a bitcoin forum that calls you a dear friend and then offers a non-https link to an ICO, you know you can trust them completely. Especially if they are a newbie in the India section of the forum and have a tantalizing bollywood heroine's first name for their username.

Completely checks out and you can totally give this person your private keys!! /s

Brother,

Seems interesting, Can you sent me a Synopsis or Road Map of this, I have people interested in this sort of projects.

If you based/Living in bangalore i can put up a meeting with them too after the initial proposals and telephonic conversations.

So surprised to see here.

There are no semiconductor fabs in India unfortunately Embarrassed, we designed the chip on a Virtex-7 FPGA in Verilog, wrote firmware to control it, and Xilinx helped us tape out a 16nm process node for MOSIS (https://www.mosis.com) from the RTL, we have to recompile the verilog code for Global Foundries 16nm process for the production run, but thankfully MOSIS provides the cell libraries for us to do this. We have been working on this from September of 2016. We just got the first low run prototype batch of 650 chips. And we did try running it at home with heavy duty wiring, it was a nightmare with neighbors (who are senior citizens) constantly complaining about the noise and finally they warned us that they would call the cops since they could not get to sleep. Which is why we had to move to a data center. Now they are saying they want to charge us 1.2 lakh per month (we had a deal with them for 38000 + taxes earlier), since we had already sunk quite a bit of money into this endeavor it would burn quite a big hole in our finances. We have already spent quite a lot of money for the tape-out and the prototype run, packaging etc...

Is this a business opportunity you are looking into considering that miners aren't easily available in India? Thought, this may only be a temporary situation.
Lets just assume that you are doing this as a hobbyist and DIY project. Can you link it to some sort of institution rather than a private initiative. If yes, then you can ask some of the organisations in Bangalore that have the required facilities to allow you to test this out.

And seriously man, its a shame that we don't have fabs in India yet. The Deity was supposed to be working on two fab projects by the way. Heard about this 3-4 years back.
Have you looked into crowdfunding this? Genuinely interested people who care about the technology are unfortunately hard to find in India, but there are enough of them. How are the chips being powered. What capacity and kind of feeder would you need? 6.3 KW can be taken care of by your average Switch-fuse unit. There are a lot of industries that have those available. BHEL, HAL, DRDO . If you can connect this with academics then it'd be welcome in IISc too i guess. Have you explored these options??

Also, can you send me a synopsis/ presentation on this project?

Hey,

I have built a 50THs mining server, the datacenter which agreed to host the server backed out of the deal. We have built custom 16nm chips (this is the testing batch), does anyone know where we might get 6.3kw of power for our test. We have purpose built everything to last under indian conditions with quite a bit of money sunk in for development of the test batch, the boards and the chassis design. Does anyone have a pooling operation in order to run this in Bangalore?

Thanks

Are you sure your question is only about getting the 6.3KW for 50THs. I assume you are talking about bitcoin mining. 6.3 KW isn't really an industrial load. You could probably divide your requirements into 3 different sockets from different flats nearby.
An average household meter should support 1.5 - 2 KW load.
If you're doing this at a flat/ apartment, you'd need a bit of properly sized cabling for testing this.
A good option would be to find some contact in your local electrical distribution department (maybe some friend who works there) and take your setup straight to the local sub-station.

Also, Custom 16nm chips??!! If true, this is huge. I don't think we have those kind of manufacturing facilities here in India. If you develop something, I'd be interested in buying.

exchange it for other coins like ethereum or bitcoins and gain some profits. There's no way around.
