Price of BFL Single: $2499 for 50Ghs.

Price for 5x AM blades: 3.5btc x 5 x 130 = $2275 for 50Ghs.

Every single BFL device that has been pre-ordered just got undercut. I would expect nearly every rational actor with a BFL preorder to cancel immediately. Friedcat just bankrupted them.

I remember that back in April BFL basically doubled its ASIC prices. Game over!

Time's up!

Max 24h average estimate: 68.642284407 TH/s

You did have me worried a bit when I woke up today and saw the spike though!

EDIT: The 1 BTC can be sent to the following address: 1PYqHTtGtr4HL44XRcvegxjZ2AJYRsd5Rp

Thank you for participating Grin

vela, I bet we'll see the 24h average being over 80TH/s during the next 48h.
How much are you willing to bet?

Also, guys, there is a speculation thread.


Anyway, we're very likely to have a low dividend again.

Based on data here:
http://www.asicminercharts.com/live/
I would bet 1BTC that we will see (at least once) the 24h-average equal or above 80TH/s, during the next 48h. Anybody takes it?

I'll take your bet.

But first I'd need to know how SmiGueL calculates the hashrate on that site.

I know how I do it on my site, and it's really simple: (232 * ) / (3600*24 / )

Which currently is: (232 * 65,750,060.1) / (3600*24 / 14) = 4.575834502×10¹³ = 45.76 TH/s

If we use the data from my site you're on! And of course my data is verifiable: If you can find more blocks than I claim, that have the "Mined By ASICMiner" signature in the coinbase you know I'm leaving some blocks out.

runeks: ok deal!
Cool! So the bet ends 17:00 (3:00 PM) Wednesday, August 28 (48 hours and two minutes from now).

So, binaryFate, for you to win ASICMiner needs to find 7 blocks in the next 6 minutes, if they find less than that I win Smiley.

Which would be seen as a huge threat to the bitcoin network  Cheesy

Judging by the price cut, we'll see at least 10x faster blades.

Operation: "Offloading"

Generation 2 confirmed, commencing...

Sources?  Or just speculation?

just speculation, though it is logical that they would get rid of old stock before the new stock.  The new stock, though, is probably the new blades, not Gen 2 blades.

FC said assembly will start on the Gen2 in Sep/Oct, so I wouldn't expect Gen2 hardware before Nov 1.
+1. Several posts here show a confusion between next "batch" of blades (250TH), and Gen2.

I assume these prices are for the old blades, do we have any news on when the new blades are coming?  It seems like they are way overdue (first promised in June).

Good news on the hash rate coming back up.  I hope we can keep it steady this week and prevent another drop.  It would be nice to get a decent dividend next week.

this realization just made me so happy..... it nearly brought a tear to my eye.

how much of these do you think AM have or could have ? I mean they will sell almost whatever amount there is with these prices...

With current deployment it's something around 250TH/s Cheesy

It all depends how much is kept away for investment... Hard guess.
