Did BitFury ship the chips?
I have about 600 KW opening this month that I would like to fill with bitfury chips if this is still a viable option.
i am in too
I'm interested too
Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing a working unit. Pricing will be critical with the ever increasing difficulty that I can't see reverting any time soon.
Looks like a great project, keep up the great work! when will the chips be ready?
I am also interested in supporting this project and may potentially be able to pool together some of my resources to come up with some substantial money to back this if we can get some preliminary ideas of cost in place I can handle the close. I am also able to assist in any support / paperwork needed by a team as I have a full staff at my disposal
Im interested, and if you guys need chips produced in volume then I have some connections.
Would have to be 500,000 chips or more.

I got 3 S3 Antminers laying around. Make drop in boards for old miners that would cut cost.

I am just hoping that BitFury gets their chip out with enough time for it to make sense.
I'm almost done with an Avalon A3218-based proof of concept board layout. Kilo17 is the man with the plan as far as getting chips lined up, and a demonstration of this concept board was one step of that.
will be nice to see it.

Hi guys,
what's the status on the boards ?
I would probably like to join, need to find some s5's though

. What's the numbers for a 48-chip refit giving you 4TH 240W wall down to 2.6TH 200W wall for, say, $600 all in? That could be possible with ASICs at about $8, which is really about the most I'd want to pay.
I would do that.. got two s1's coming just for that. 480 watt for 4TH
There were great times with a lot of projects targeted to DIY and home miners
Or more specifically, at the time stickminers were popular Bitfury was selling a good chip to anyone who would pay so a lot of independents made stickminers around them.
It's not my job to say anything officially, but someone higher up the food chain has been working and it looks like Bitfury actually likes my project idea so it's looking more possible now that it'll actually happen. Got a lot of design and prototyping to do before anything's for sure, but it looks more possible. So that's pretty exciting. Don't ask me for details on the politics of anything, because I don't know. Like I said, someone higher up the food chain's doing the talking.
That's not surprising. Bitfury has always been fond of stickminers from the BPMC Red Fury to the Nano or Twin or Ice. Even the Hex-Fury! I just think it's weird how Bitfury just loves stickminers...
hm i may have a 1000 to 1100 i can put in .
As for every kind of engineering design :civil, mechanical, tooling, electric and electronic a degree of knowledge is needed a formal degree is just a paper.
Great deal of experience and number of finished projects in the field is what helps most
Do you need degree level electronic engineering knowledge to build your own miner?
Also, I would be interested in investing, if there is profit to be made. I've been considering investing £10,000 into a mining farm, but this might seem a better idea.
Thanks
