after attending the bitcoin conference I have less hope in bfl than ever. AVALON ASIC  are definitely no1 in this field. I was lucky enough to party with yifu. I have nothing but respect for him.

They don't know themselves at the moment. They just changed the company they're using to package their chips because they were unhappy with the speed and quality.  Grin I think they expect to get different / better service elsewhere  Cheesy

Who knows how long a dodgy, lowest-bidder Chinese fab takes to get a new product off the ground, actually start making it and send the results to the US?

Yeah... 6 months if you're *lucky*  Roll Eyes

This is what happens when complete nubs try to start doing business in China.  Kiss

If you order now, hope for December 2015 :DD
jk, around september/november is what they told me.

So four months is the official line, yet on the preorder page it says 2 still. Then again who would preorder a product almost half a year before it's released. Oh yeah; BFL customers.
Last time i asked was begining of april, they said late august, so I'm assuming.

Place an order now, when can receive?
And use BTC payment, 10 minutes is enough?

If you order now, you might receive something by early 2014. Unlikely before Christmas of this year.

Really ? I submited a ticket, asking a shipping estimate if I were to order now.
End of july was the answer.

That's like... Mmmmh.... Yeah! 2 months! Cheesy


Order now after 2 months can get?

Not to say that at least 2 months, or even longer?

I don't see how that could be possible given everything we know about Butterfly Labs' progress on this project. Good luck to you.

You are obviously new here, so you would not know that this is actually a really funny joke.

 Butterfly Labs claimed they began shipping out to customers on the evening of Sunday, March 31st, 2013, and ruined the reputation of http://betsofbitco.in/ in the process.

 There is also the matter of an outstanding 1000 BTC lost-bet to charity over Butterfly Labs underestimating their power draw by a factor of five, which is a pretty bad joke in and of itself.

 I would advise you to check the Custom Hardware forums for get more insight on Butterfly Labs, from this community.

Bad joke. No one knows when they will ship in quantity.
Then they're not shipping.
And yes; nobody knows when they will, and yes; it's a very bad joke indeed.


Face. Palm.

Apologies, and gratitude. Will try to be more up to speed.


EDIT: Haven't they missed the power by 10x? Didn't Ars or Wired report 50W for the (5W!) Jalapeno?

I wish BFL would just start selling batches of chips like Avalon so we could make our own rigs with the freelance work that is already underway with the Avalon chip batches.

I ordered a BFL but all I got was this lousy unicorn.

Did you name it Jalapeno?  Roll Eyes

I named it Inaba, of course.
