JESUS CHRIST

I want a Coinado so bad!!!

The order thread is pretty jumbled and hard to interpret. Can you post the basic info? Price of boards and chips assembled and estimated start of manufacturing date?

Yes I know. BFL options are hard to understand if you don't know them...

Board is not a problem. Chips are... 100 days... If all things are equal(all interest will turn into payments) next batch might be ordered tomorrow or so...

To get chips you need to pay 50% now(you can pay 100% but not necessary).

Price of a chip is 55$ with chip credit.

If you don't have chips credits you can get them from me for 0.01BTC

So you need to pay 55$(+0.01BTC if you don't have a credit) per chip if you pay 100% or 27,5$(+0.01BTC) if you pay 50%.

If you pay 50% and you can't pay other 50% when BFL ships you will lost the place in line... If you pay 100% and someone ahead of you will not pay you take his place if you are the first in line.

Board are estimated at 300 with low numbers of orders and below 200 with hi numbers(setup cost a lot)... That is 8 chip board...

I hope this time I'm making seance to you...

16 chip board just got a name COINTAMINATION...

I like it do you?

It will be ready for test in 14 days and we are sure it will work. We would like to run boards for longer time so we need samples for it.

Just sayin', I'd try coinductor.

Congratulations to you guys.

i think its a bit too hard to spell and hardly related to the miner itself, just dont like the "mination" part. ^^

Maybe Cointa-Miner or something?

I kind of agree with Foofighter, but honestly if you're selling a good product at an affordable price, you could call it "dog shit" and I'd still order lots of them. Cheesy

For unknown reason topic https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bfl-board-project-cointamination-eu-facility-orders-opened-for-chili-267649 was locked... Or someone with power hate that we took the lead... So for now I'm waiting to get answer why but it looks like they have changed some polices (see warning next to my PGP key signature)

I saw your post on the other thread. Yeah it seems that they don't like the shortened url's anymore. Same thing happened to my PGP key link.

Nice to see a BFL chip in action. Can't wait to see all 8 hashing away!

Busy day today...
Got it managed to get the board mining.
This first chip has not all internal engines available, so it is slower than normal. But it seems some of them will re-activate when increasing core-voltage.
I have to experiment with that later...

I believe we have first hashing board... And COINADO takes the lead...

I knew it was a good idea to transfer my chips to you.

I'm impressed with the pace of the board development.

Well boards will be ready long before your order arrives and I think that we will be able at that time mount 100+ chips per day... We wil have 300+ chips experiences if you count only GB...

So if you are interested you can read first post(I hope everything is up to date I will clean it in next days since now everything is crazy...):

I was just asking to see if is worth it to gamble with BFL again (yeah I know, but bitfurys chips aren't that cheap either). I'm lucky enough I got my Jalepenos somewhat early. If they could deliver 100 chips in 100 days and have them mounted into boards by November it would still have a ROI of 55 days with 40% difficulty raises. It would still consider almost every ASIC company is weeks, months, and in BFL's case a whole year behind on their production schedules, with the exception of the DIY crowd.

Has anyones experiences doing a bulk 100 chip order been better than their regular miner orders? I wouldn't have the tools around, nor the hardware to mount them to test them, but if I do make an order for 100 chips. I could possibly send them to the developers who need them most and hope a DIY BFL solution can actually happen.

No he is talking about "2 weeks" BFL is using all the time... Or with other words delays...

You are right about "2 weeks." However, it is true that they said "2 weeks" for delivery of sample chips and were only a little late that time. Also they have a financial incentive to deliver chips since 50% of payment is due on delivery, and the chips will probably come directly from Globalfoundries which should avoid the other supply chain issues. I assume you agree since you are on schedule to have boards ready by September...
