Would love to drop some Minion chips into The Wasp!

Can we contact you to discuss our teams plans for boards using the Minion chip?

Please PM me or write us via the website contact form.

I just looked over your thread and it looks that you're organizing a group buy. We try to stay away from these.

Why we do not accept group buys?
We have an experienced and dedicated customer support team that is able to provide a high quality service. They are qualified in handling and fixing all matters that might arise. Direct contact with our customers will also improve our products and customer service.
We also believe that a random person from the internet that organizes a group buy is both not qualified to handle customer support, shipping matters including local customs and might also not be trustworthy to receive all your money, forward them to us and distribute the merchandise to you. If we would accept a group buy and anything goes wrong with it, although legally we won't be responsible for this, our customers will be unhappy.
For these reasons we strictly prohibit group buys.

Do we accept resellers?
Yes. In order to save our customers shipping costs, we will accept a company that wishes to become our reseller and proves that they are experienced and trustworthy.

Dear Customers,

Shortly we will send to all our Lancelot customers gift certificates that they can use to discount their order for Prospero and Minion on our website.

We will give more details for returning your Lancelots with the gift certificate emails.

If you want to place your order before receiving the gift certificate, please drop us a note at checkout and we will apply the discount to your order manually.

This is what you should have done with Avalon trade-ins.

If our ASIC will not be profitable, no ASIC will be

Thats exactly what I expect. But judging by the avalanche of preorders, not many agree, so you should be good

and bitcoin mining will stop.

You know better than saying that.
Sales will dry up, thus prices will drop, sales will resume, miners still wont make a profit, sales will dry up, prices will drop,.. rince repeat.

But whatever happens, mining wont stop. Even sales wont.

Anyway, thats for another thread. I do wish you good luck.

I guess the obvious next quesiion is, what happens when the price on X1 drops by 30%, and I ordered just one?

You'll get 2 pcs. In general we'll round up in customer's favor.

ITs not a matter of budget, but profitability. But like I said, thats not specific to your company, but to the market at large.

We are making the most efficient ASIC possible and there's nowhere to go to from 28nm until 2015. We're offering all preorders a better deal that we'll have when we'll deliver the ASICs and we're guaranteeing that we'll offer the best price on the market.

If our ASIC will not be profitable, no ASIC will be and bitcoin mining will stop.

You will receive hardware that can scan 1733 Ghash/second. If that happens we will send you a 1 * X-3 with all 21 ASICs and 1 x X-3 with 6 ASICs.

If the X3 is too high for your budget, please consider X1.

"All pre-orders are guaranteed to be protected against any price decrease"

I like that. But Im not sure how it works. Say I order 1 X3 unit for $4000, and price drops to $3000, what will I get? You cant send me two units, nor can you send me 1.25 units?

15 days free hosting/testing is another good idea.

Anyway, your prices are too high for me, but that goes for all your competitors too. Looking forward to see how this will pan out.
