Can you give us any information on where we stand?  It's been nearly 3 months since we sent FPGAs for trade-in and many of us have shareholders and/or leased datacenter/hosting space which adds to the frustration of being left in the dark while most of batch 2 has shipped.

Is it a matter of production capacity?  Issues with large/bulk shipments?

Because as i see it, the main problem, is that Yifu trying to update their site, for trade-ins...and its taking 2-3 weeks already.. Undecided

and it has been 12 weeks since their Apr 15th, "send your trade-in boards NOW!" email...

I don't think the website update is the problem.  They just don't have all (any) trade-in units ready, so that is why they keep quiet.  IMHO.

He mentioned (at bitcoin conference) that he did not want to take people's money for products he did not have.

Since there is no personal info for the trade-in till today, GMP is considering the hardware sended for trade-in as lost.
GMP is a crowdmining project, the ignorance of the Avalon Team is affecting not just one person.
Yifu you are a scamer, even if you deliver now, you scamed all trade-in guys - period.

We all was very patient with you, but you dnt even think about to talk to us. This is sad.
Thats why i have to request a scamer tag for Yifu (Bitsyncom) and the Avalon Team.

Are trade-ins considered part of Batch2, Batch3 or completely separate from both?

nobody knows

when it was announced they should be delivered before batch 2, but that chance is gone...

So, no news yet?

i guess, maybe its best to process all trade-in orders manually?

If you look at the link in my sig, you'll see I was like one of the first people to immediately do a trade-in...

Yeah, Apr 19th, you are probably in the top 20 people or so.  Some delivered them in person, right after the announcement, Apr 15th wasn't it?

Yifu, Avalon, etc should have addressed these by now.   Has anyone at all received a trade-in added to their store account?

Batch #3 is going on 2+ months late.  Trade-ins are going on several months late.  Its very hard to stay patient.

Yifu, please come through for us.

I've been trying to keep things updated on the link in my sig. The trade-ins I have not heard anything about. But two units from my regular order have, in fact, shipped.

I'd estimate there were probably about 600ish devices that qualified as trade-in capable, and my guess is that at least half were sent back in.

I had a guy from work (a native speaker) call Mr. Chen yesterday.  Apparently, they have a trade-in queue.  FIFO.
If your boards were received after Apr 22, you had at least 40 people (not boards, but people) in front of you. 
Mr. Chen said that the notifications will be sent out based on the order the boards were received.

My guesstimate is that about 100 people sent the boards.  With an average of 2-3 boards per person.
So 200 to 300 Avalon units I guess.

Ahh, ok. See, I'm not sure why this info wasn't really relayed to folks. I suppose it's a language issue more than anything else. Oh well. Looking forward to hearing from them in the near future.

If you look at the link in my sig, you'll see I was like one of the first people to immediately do a trade-in. I even paid over $200 to do so.

IF you paid your trade-in up front in Full already you should have opened a batch #2  ticket.

Or you can wait longer with the rest of us.

As far as Trade-In units..i estimate them to be ~100-200 units,  some guys sent 20+ a piece in.  I only sent 1 in.
