I don't see why i should be grateful. They are probably gonna ship us really soon overpriced hardware that we paid with the promise to have it 2 months ago, and we can't even sue them because they are gonna refund in USD/get a refund in BTC as they always promised.
So the only good news would be "hey, the chip does 5TH/s! and we are gonna ship you that anyway!". Or "yes, we regret what we did, so we are gonna ship the MPP this month hoping to calm down the customers that we stole from".
That would be good news. Everything else, is bad news. If you don't understand it and you are in batch 1, i'm sorry for you. Other companies acting even worse doesn't justify them in any way.

Never been through this and it's frustrating
I don't want to sound like an ass but they lied. If your grateful for waiting for two months then good for you son, good for you
All ASIC manufacturers have been late, or have not delivered at all. I came into this expecting the chance of a delay. I guess I'm just conditioned to waiting a year and 3 months at BFL. I was in the first month of orders. But the light at the end of the tunnel came soon.

lol @ "The first HashFast board!"
"we can't show you the pics of the boards, it's under NDA, and the NDA is covered by another NDA, sorry"
-2 months ago, when those pics should have been released for the first time if they existed.
Can't you be grateful for something once in a while?

Blue is for guys that still shop at Wal-Mart.
that's his day job...
Somebody please tell the dude in the middle to change his t-shirt.
Why, poor dude in the middle?Black, Cedivad. Black is the proper color for SFOish tech gurus in the making. Blue is for guys that still shop at Wal-Mart.
Yes, lets hope these don't behave the same as the prototypes they had. Thats all i got left is hope.

Things are moving quickly! We finally have the first Golden Nonce chip, we began testing it —sending the first current through the 28nm chip to see how it performs. So far, things are looking very good. HashFast co-founder and CTO Simon Barber to give us the play-by-play of the first tests.
We brought up IOVdd first. Up to 1.8V — draws less than the minimum 10mA the bench supply reads.
Next core.
Something odd was observed here. Initially, we saw high current draw as we brought the voltage up, reaching 0.7V where it was drawing 2.5A. As the voltage increased a little over 0.7v the current suddenly dropped to 82mA. It stayed there up to Vddcore=0.8v. This odd pattern of high current at low core voltage was repeatable. RST held low. MODE and BYPASS were held high. PLLVdd pulled to Vdd. All other inputs seemed to float low, with a 1Mohm impedance probe.
Next CLK was applied — first 37Hz. 4mA increase in Vdd core current. Took chip out of reset. No change. Next increase clock speed, this increases current. In a couple of steps, we got it to 6Mhz, where the core Vdd was drawing 548mA.
After a few minutes, we turned things off. On retrying, we didn’t find the same odd, high current during ramp of core Vdd. Perhaps this was due to CLK floating then, and not since?
Calling it a night, having trouble getting the serial port levels shifted correctly. Will continue in the morning.

Looking forward to the results.
Good to see they are getting the PCBS assembled in cali, close to them. Maybe light is at the end of the tunnel.

Still question over what controller they are including on the jets.

Why, poor dude in the middle?And will somebody puh-leeze tell Eduardo to take that damn masturbator out of his ear, at least for photos?
Why should anyone even care about that?Seems like that we will have some info on the hashing speed soon.
Oh, yes, and thank you again hf for having stolen from batch 1 customers everything what was possible to stole.

Any updates?
apparently the chips ready to pick up? i'm assuming they are talking about ciara, and for specs nothing but volts and currents 
lol. Im sick of there bs to be honest, they stop posting on the forum because they would get abused. so they decided to go on twitter. Any updates?
