Mr. funnow,

Go develop your chip. You will know when it's time if you're going to make money or not, or if you just end up helping the network.

What I know at the moment:  0,18u-0,13u (180nm-130nm) with less than $250k (ASIC development $150k, shattle first test (50 chips) - $40k, chip assembling and final testing $40k)
Development could take 3-4 months, maybe 5.

Altera HardCopy?

I wonder why people didn't try this earlier.  Their NRE is more like $750k though.

Can we just stop with these BS announcements?  You have nothing to sell right now.  When you do, start an auction or sale and people will buy from you.  No promotion is necessary in this market.  We will come to YOU. 

Or, just develop it and mine yourself.  Every preorder or announcement is a scam until proven otherwise.  You are no different.

You are too late to the ASIC game. There are at least three companies that have ASICs developed already, and you are a fool if you think those three companies aren't working on improved versions (well, maybe not BFL, lol).

That's A LOT of competition and developing an ASIC takes a lot of money and a long time.

These companies are selling their machines WAY over their cost because that is what the market will bear right now. ASICs in large quantities are cheap. Expect them to get cheap and competition to get tougher. And most importantly, difficulty will skyrocket.

In the not too distant future (within a year), we will be able to buy ASIC machines with about 100 GH/sec power that run at about 100 watts and cost a few hundred dollars. The difficulty will be such that the ROI for such a machine will be 1-2 years, so mining will be mostly for fun and small profits, not the cash cow it is now.

It's good that you're starting a project with thinking about the project name. I was told that it's the most important part of every project so I'm glad to see that you try to cover it first. Then of course comes the website and it's good that it's 2nd on your list. This gives me confidence in your project. Keep us updated and let us know as soon as you have your logo designed!

As I mention, I'm starting a new topic, because it's a project nearly from scratch.
News will be posted here. Website will be online in about 4 weeks. We are thinking about project name.
So keep reading news.

stop revealing new projects that aren't ready to ship, it is getting worse than all those new scamcoin
Scam sites are the worst thing, and they have nothing in common with us.
So stop putting us in the same "box"!

You'll be way behind the game with that process and such lead time.

Way behind the current quarter, but the game has 3 more to go. We just started the ASIC race and there is probably 5 years time for various enhancements that will determine the bestselling ASIC design.

EDIT: NOT that I believe that this project is true or will be successful, otherwise why even reveal it on this forum in such a way.

Probably I will be the only one with only accepting escrow payment. That's for sure.
I will post the lead time when I will know more about.

And you will offer better prices than current ASIC vendors right?(BFL doesn't count. Inaba is a lying tard) Considering that AM sold 10Ghash devices for ~1 mil USD in a matter of days you will surely get your R&D money back even with lower prices. Let us know when you will have a better estimate for your timeline. Will you be EU or US based?

Way behind using what metric? All ASICS currently being sold are expensive in terms of $s/hash, not J/hash. We cannot tell who is "way behind" until we see the price of finished product. But I am getting ahead of myself, since there is really nothing to be discussed in this thread yet, anf there won't be until the first unit is tested by an independent party.

This.

We have money. So we don't need anymore.

Why not give us more details then. Process node, how far are you into this etc
