I see that a China based group buy I'm escrowing for has received the sample chips. Cheesy

Yes, Jimmy2011 recevied 30 avalon chips.

But , bad news is 30 chips only for 3 orders of 30K avalon chips

Yifu posted, that this was a misunderstanding and everyone should get 30 chips per ordered batch.

Will I get more sample chips according to 30 sample chips per 10000 chips order?

How should I distribute the sample chips to the group buyers, based on the 1st group buy, or all three batches? Before this message, actually I have posted the distribution message based on just the 1st group buy.

you're fucked.

You may fuck BitSyncom! Their comments on the sample chips that only 30 chips for each receiver address just came after our decision of the distribution. So we changed it to let all 3 batches share those 30 sample chips. I am so disappointed.

Oh, If u fuck BitSyncom, things will be worse. I thanks batch #3 avalon must be ahead of avalon chips.

Easy

We all got upset, but it's sorted now.
It was some miscommunication inside Avalon (shipping crew). Every 10k order will get 30 sample chips.

Not lazy, just stumbled across this... link?
I will look for it as well, but my email from Avalon-ASIC said nothing like that.

Also they have a responsibility to fulfill their Batch 2, 3 and the poor sod's from Batch 1 Avalon's that still haven't received their unit first!

I'm not so sure about that. They have responsibility to do everything they can to fix their assembly production problems as quickly as possible, but presuming the problems they are having there aren't related to chip production I don't think they will hold off shipping chips until batch 2/3 (and some 1) is 100% fulfilled.

Chips are a different product with different requirements than a full miner from the batches, so shipping chips whenever they are available isn't the same thing as line jumping the batch orders. Of course I'm waiting on chips and not batch 2 or 3, but even if it were the other way around I don't think I would expect them to withhold shipping of chips because of unrelated production problems with the batch miners. Especially given all along they have claimed they want to sell chips not completed miners...

That said, I do agree it sucks though for the folks waiting on batch 2 and 3.

Probably in about 2 to 3 weeks those 1st and 2 batch baby avalon chip should on their way Wink

I think most of the major devs will get what they need.

Now what's the lead time on the batch orders?

Avalon sample chip received by a miner developer team in China,

Not sure it's the same one Jimmy mentioned.

Yes, is indeed good news, so hopefully in another 2 weeks to received the Avalon Chip?

The way things seem to work my guess would be more like 4 weeks.

Not sure about that. The payment for bulk chip manufacture is still sitting in Bitsyncom's wallet.

Also they have a responsibility to fulfill their Batch 2, 3 and the poor sod's from Batch 1 Avalon's that still haven't received their unit first!

That would be seriously sly to f**k those guys over by prioritising the bulk orders over their units. Their time for ROI has already significantly diminished from what they were led to believe...

So you what ur saying is... even if the foundry finished building the chips, they should hold off shipping those until they can finish assembling batch 2/3 of the full units? Sounds a bit selfish dont you think?

Received notification as well, sample chips send from Beijing (with EMS).

I would probably estimate at least 8 weeks with the way avalon has been shipping orders out.
