Join Us in Texas! Live Demo of The World’s first 2 TH/s miner!
By Tim Wong In Development, Evo, Golden Nonce ASIC, News, Photography, Rig Assembly
Many years ago,  in 1999,  our CEO, Eduardo deCastro graduated with his MBA from the University of Texas at Austin….  so Austin seemed like the perfect venue for the first public demonstration of our Sierra Evo, the world’s first 2TH/s Bitcoin miner.
Join us March 5th & 6th at the Texas Bitcoin Conference! We will be mining live on the show floor with a working Sierra Evo running at over 2 TH/s!!!
Oh, by the way, our  Sierra Evo only needs  (3) of our 28nm ASICs to cross the 2 TH/s barrier!
Hook ‘em horns!

Btw, look at the scale of this image:

WTH is that?

Is it aerodynamic?

Texas Bitcoin Conference? At the house of the lion (CT)?

Thats Hashfast's newest miner supposedly. And yeah, here at the Texas BTC conference.

HF chips are actually four dies.  I don't know about CoinTerra but the comparison is unfair and irrelevant given the context.

HashFast's chip consists of multiple dies on a singe substrate and performs at 750GH/s.

Cointerra's chip consists of multiple dies on a singe substrate and perform at much less than 750GH/s.

KnC's chip consists of multiple dies on a singe substrate and performs at much, much less than 750GH/s.

The comparison of hardware is trivial, however the contrast in performance is striking!   Shocked

Good explanation.  Now, how about explaining the bad feedback?

The bad feedback is from people who are upset that I am enforcing gmaxwell's Rules of Conduct for this subforum and keeping this thread on-topic.

They want to break the rules by posting repetitive scam accusations and off-topic personal attacks, but letting this thread turn into another unmoderated troll-fest like the first one is not in the interests of HashFast's customers.  They want to discuss Custom Hardware, not listen the same old stories from the 400GH/s thread retold ad nauseam.

Using negative feedback to express dissatisfaction with a self-moderated thread is silly.  If you don't like self-moderated threads, simply don't read or post in them.

Hi Hashfast_CL,

I am interested in buying your new product, but the "Warning: Trade with extreme caution!" under your username worries me. Please explain why you have that label. Thanks.

Pro tip:

You can click on trust and read why he was given bad ratings.

Yep, I know all about that, thanks.  I was hoping for an explanation on "why?", but straight from the donkey's horse's mouth..

Now let's go back on topic and discuss how awesome it is for HashFast to get 750GH/s from a single ASIC.

I am truely happy that you obviously got back some optimism and seem to see some light on the end of this long and dark tunnel.

But, I hope you understand, that while this may be incredibly awesome for HashLast, especially after they and you went through all these setbacks, lyings, layoffs and disappointments, it just means shit for their existing customers. Which, by the way, involuntarily and forcedly financed R&D and production(?) of this awesome ASIC, which you are seemingly so proud of.

Ship out the long time overdue and long ago paid for Upgrades and MPP.

Or is it really true that HashLast has run out of money and can't deliver/produce anything without more preorder sales of virtual products?

Talk to us! Did Eduardo already set sails for the Bahamas?

Does anybody else thing HashFast has caught themselves up into a pyramid?

They don't have enough money to pay for more silicone to fulfill the Batch 2+ orders, so now they're selling another vaporware product to pay for the initial production run.

That is really the only reason I can think of that they're so quite about their intentions for their first products. There's not even promised delivery dates anymore, just silence.


We were told, sometime in November 2013 IIRC, that the B2 and MPP wafers had been ordered.

My first thought when you said this is... You can order something and not have paid yet....... the order will have been canceled if not paid in  time.

I'll just leave this here: https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-78 Cheesy

No idea of the speed, but i have a feeling that it will crush your chip HashFast. What will you say then?

A point of order: Conduct in this subforum

Yeah, you should teach us how we should conduct, you dirty little scammer.

Some people have no shame.

gmaxwell wrote the rules of conduct for this subforum.  I merely enforce them.   Tongue

HashFast: we are all very happy and excited for you that your new boards get 750GH.

No we aren't. These liquid nitrogen cooled chips are large but inefficient. 2w/gh means bitfury is twice as efficient. Die size means nothing if your chips are garbage.

I would rather have 1000 2.6gh bitfury chips than a single giant 2000 gh/s hashslow chip that requires a nuclear powerplant to power it.

Now let's go back on topic and discuss how awesome it is for HashFast to get 750GH/s from a single ASIC.

And this, btw, is technically false. It's 4 ICs. Soldered in a single board.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-chip_module

A multi-chip module (MCM) is a specialized electronic package where multiple integrated circuits (ICs), semiconductor dies or other discrete components are packaged onto a unifying substrate, facilitating their use as a single component (as though a larger IC).


The MCM itself will often be referred to as a "chip" in designs, thus illustrating its integrated nature.

KnC, Cointerra, and HashFast all use multiple dies on a single substrate.  They are technically correct when referring to their respective MCMs as "chips."
