Yifu has yet to rectify this issue with people who sent trade-ins.

I'm out about 18 btc, not even including profits the icarus units could have generated.

They shouldn't even bother to send to send trade-in units as they are almost worthless at this point. What I think they should do is pay everyone that sent out their fpga units the dollar value of the units in btc terms.



No way man! I want my Icarus back. They're extremely valuable development devices.

At this point they should just promptly ship 1 Avalon per trade-in board without asking for any additional payment.

That's the only way the participants will get any kind of significant reward now in exchange for their early support.

We have sent you our FPGAs half a year ago.


wow 6 months already.. Sad


In April I sent Avalon $2000 in trade-in equipment.    6 months later... Yifu and Avalon have not honored trade-ins.   I will not be buying from Avalon again unless they come up with some sort of compensation.

Avalon turns One years old
What a roller coaster ride it has been

We went from the last to enter the ASIC mining market crowd-funded by the community to the first to shipping a consumer product in little over 4 month. On this journey, many mistakes were made, tons of things were learned and we will continue to grow as one of the groups to keep mining decentralized and support the DIY community. Those are our goals.

In the up coming week we will doing a clearance sale on the refunded chips as well as some mining units and modules to close generation one and move on to a pre-sale-less generation two of the Avalon Project.

Stay tuned as many more exciting news will be announced in the coming week.

Look how blackarrow is handling trade-ins.  Gift certificate for a NEW (not shipped) product.  

Instead, we got accused of being "greedy" by Yifu. Sad

I don't think we would even want them now. With that btc we can get something better - like maybe a KNC group buy shares, or who knows what else. The point is they already broke their promise on several accounts, and now doing it to us again is essentially theft.

Looks like Yifu is refunding chips orders.  I guess he sold them off for a better price, now he refunds the change.

I don't think we'll see our trade-ins processed as he probably does not have the chips or Avalons to sell.
All gone, top price.

He ignores all questions about trade-ins.  We the minority. With chips he pissed off a lot of people. I mean  a LOT.
I bet quite a few survivalist/militia/anti-gov/bitcoin loving types in the US are already working on custom .45acp reloads just for him.

I hope he will not get wacked for stupid chips.  

September is around the corner.  Bitfury is shipping, BFL is shipping quite a bit.  Those Avalons  might not be worth $1600 in few weeks.

Don't buy KNC. It wasn't until very recently that they clarified that when they say they're going to self-mine, they'll only self-mine a max of 5% of the hashrate sold to customers. Most people didn't even know they were going to self-mine.


BS it's been on their FAQ from the very start. At least they are honest. Learn to read.

They never said how much they are going to mine with their own equipment, versus their customers. If you mean they had the 5% bit on their FAQ from the start, then, I guess.. your brain appears to be malfunctioning?

Why are you selling the Miners and don’t mine yourself (will you use the miners for mining yourself)?

We are mining ourselves, but we believe in the bitcoin project and a diversified market is the best for all parties. We will continue to mine but we do not believe in a monopoly of miners. We will not mine with more than 5% of the hash rate we sell, and we will never mine with customer hardware.

Learn to English my English. Also #trollfail.
