Topic: HashFast announces specs for new ASIC: 400GH/s - page 201. (Read 880461 times)

Some balls... Did they hire Inaba?

We have started shipping and producing in bulk. Some of you have already received and are using Baby Jets or Sierras with great success. We can’t tell you how pleased we are to hear this.

For the past few weeks, we focused all our resources on getting everything we needed ready for bulk production and shipping. Unfortunately, this has meant we haven’t kept you as updated on the progress of assembly, testing and production as we would’ve liked.

We’ve been glad to hear that our customers out in the real world are satisfied with the hashing performance they are seeing — some users have even reported success getting their rigs to perform at rates much higher than our specifications. This is great news!

We know that the roll out was a bit rocky. It’s the most advanced, cutting edge technology in Bitcoin mining today. We’ve now got the most powerful hashing machines on the planet, and that type of advancement doesn’t always come easy. But the good news is, despite all the initial challenges, we’ve delivered on our promise — a 28nm ASIC chip that is unmatched in the industry.

For those of you who have received your machine(s), we will be setting up additional resources to assist you and keep you updated. Expect to hear more about this in the coming days. In the meantime, we want to hear your hashing stories! Please feel free to contact us via our social media accounts, or post to the message boards.

MEGA LOL!! HF sock puppet you are or not??

And you guys keep referring to HashFast as a scam.  Look at how generous they are to their customers.

By default it will mine on eligius at the burn in address associated with your account. The account will already contain any coins the unit might have mined during the HF burn in testing. In my case around 70 mBTC. It is running @ 422 GH/s

For factory testing an initial Bitcoin wallet was generated on this device in order to perform a live test of your product.  As a gift to you, we are providing you this wallet so you can claim any mining proceeds from the mining pool (Eligius) that may have accrued, but we do not imply that any have accured, or that the mining pool, which is beyond our control, will release any proceeds.

But, yes - the account is associated with the SD card not the BJ.

Actually this only proves the image they duplicated on the SD card was used on Jan the 17th, it does not need to be your machine (unless all machines come with a unique hashing account preset)

We have provided this system pre-configured to check for any updates that may be needed to from time to time, and as such, this system will attempt to connect to setup.hashfast.com during startup.  Your IP address, the factory generated public key, module serial numbers, and version numbers may be sent to facilitate this.  If this is undesired, you can remove this functionality by clicking the "Default cgminer" button and then the "Save" button under the settings tab in your control panel.  Note that once this is done, your system and your HashFast modules will not receive any further updates.  You can re-enable the update system at any time by restoring the original settings; click the "Default HashFast cgminer" button, then the "Save" button, and then restart your system.  During update requests, at no time is any sensitive information sent, such as private keys, any mine pool settings, passwords, etc.

NOTE: There is no password initially set on the web-based control panel, so we recommend setting one as soon as possible.  The base Arch Linux system also has a defualt password, please see the MinePeon documentation for more information.  We recommend having a properly qualified network engineer assess your network and systems for any security issues before using any systems for production mining.  We also highgly recommend you make a backup of all settings (can be done fron the settings tab) so you can restore your setup in the event of SD card corruption or failure.

At startup the system will attempt to begin mining on the Eligius pool with the factory generated test wallet.  Please change this as soon as possbile if you wish to keep any mining proceeeds generated by your system.  This can be done on under the "pools" tab of the control panel.  Note that by default there is a watchdog timer configured on this system that will reboot it in the event that mining hasn't started for 5 minutes, or within 1 minute after mining has failed.  There is information about how this works available on the internet.

One interesting thing I noticed in the minepeon graphs is that you can see the burn-in history. In my case the unit started hashing on Jan 17:

Mine has been running very stable, hopefully yours does the same.

Did HashFail ever call back about the MPP?

My BJ arrived today. Just picked it up from FedEx (never got the tracking number and missed delivery earlier today).

Unit is pretty nice and is mostly a plug&play affair. Took me less then 30m to install, set-up raspi with minepeon and configure pools.

By default it will mine on eligius at the burn in address associated with your account. The account will already contain any coins the unit might have mined during the HF burn in testing. In my case around 70 mBTC. It is running @ 422 GH/s

Will let it run overnight to see how stable it is.

Unfortunatelly customers with later batches cannot receive the refund. This is the message they e-mail to customers requesting the refund:

"Thank you for your email. We are not able to refund your order at this time.
Batch 4 orders have a Guaranteed Ship Date of on or before March 31st per our order Terms & Conditions. If this date is not met, a customer may then request a refund.
Sincerely,
Erin"
