Avalon ASIC live mining on #bitcoin network as of 6:49PM Eastern Time.
"One hopes the PSU is auto-switching."
translation he hasn't even turned it on yet. so I guess I'm delusional? these pics haven't proved anything yet

The people who are denying the reality of ASICs at this point in time are delusional.
Keep up with the threads. Not only has he turned it on, he's happily mining away at 68 GH/s.

Until they can find a way to ship each order cheaply, others will not get their ASICs. 
Holy sh*t, Avalon really delivered!
Wow... awesome!! I can't wait for Jeff's review/video!!!!
The people who are denying the reality of ASICs at this point in time are delusional.
The $400 for shipping apparently didn't include a tracking number either, or Avalon's rep didn't see fit to forward it to Jeff. This is a total cluster.
So what about all of the mainland China orders? 10 days is a bit long to ship something from China to China.
Fucking scrubs defending the Avalon scam.

Yeah, I am a scrub because I said it takes 3 weeks to ship from China to the US. I am stating a fact, not defending Avalon dumbass. From what I have read it seems like they only shipped 2 orders:

First unit goes to Jeff Garzik in honor for the work he has done for the bitcoin codebase being the only developer who ordered from us.
we also arranged to ship a unit to the Bitcoin Foundation, whom is going to do a demo.

Jeff Garzik lives in the US. I have no idea where the Bitcoin Foundation is, but I would assume US. AKA those 2 units are shipping from China to US (3 weeks).
In conclusion: Go fuck yourself.
@Morblias:
I think they used expedited / express shipping; Yifu G. said they paid over $400 to get it sent to JGarzik, so I imagine the 3 week waiting period to him doesn't apply (unless they messed up on a customs form somewhere).

Give it a couple days.

ROFL Give it a few days? They "shipped" 10 days ago! 10 days, and there is still no sign at all that they have units hashing! How many more days do you suggest we wait? EP
Have you ever ordered a product from China? I have waited 3 weeks before...
Give it a couple days.

I cracked it. The password is "1234" (nothing to be proud of).
The zip is not what it claims to be. It contains hashpower.com screenshots and a cat picture. Nothing about Avalon.
Thanks mrb.The zip is not what it claims to be. It contains hashpower.com screenshots and a cat picture. Nothing about Avalon.
No. Thanks for trolling.

That is 50/50 luck. Think in terms of running for 6-7 days without no love. Shit happens.
I would be all over the predictable pps at this point in time if it was me.

solo with only 60 gh/s? ballsy at this diff. if luck is not on his side he can spin his wheels for quite a while.
thats probably just a botnet
nope... wizkid057 verified he owned the bitcoin address.
and it's dead again
He said he decided to go solo after his bitcoind was caught up.
and it's dead again
So when did we start to look at every miner with 60~70G hashing rate so closely?
thats probably just a botnet
