Gawminers just announced some ASIC Scrypt miners with or without hosting option:

Fury 1Mh/s

199 $

Black Widow 13Mh/s

2.099 $

The Flacon 27Mh/s

3.500 $

The War Maschine 54 MH/S

6.800 $

With Hosting it could be a good deal. I just have 2 Blades hosted from them and everything works fine. The miners go online 02 June or shipped.

but the 'Falcon' is a good deal compared the 30Mhs Hashra unit I was getting ready to order.

Seriously, don't buy scrypt ASIC even if you can buy it right now. You won't recover your cost before the massive difficulty hike.....
Difficulty hike on which coins? With at least 5 new coins every day how is difficulty an issue?

It's about time -- All merrit accepted !!!
thanks , i figured as much
the original question asked, never really got answered

does anyone have these in hand now, working,

if so which

i find it hard to believe these units were developed

the cost of asic development is very very high

the price of scrypt 1024 coins is no where near enough to really trigger the market,

i guess it is not imossible

seems crazy

the only one thats currently available is gridseed 5.2mhs blade or 0.3mhs heatsink

it works fine but is overpriced and wont pay off

everything else you can see is just hype

nothing else except gridseed has been shipped and tested yet

well - I have gridseed blades and I think I'm going to order a 30mhs hasra unit on monday - they're offering a nice discount and it will double my hashing power.

hashra units are very similar permance wise to what inosilicon resellers are selling here in the forums and are more expensive

so probably based on innosillicon too edit - its zeus hardware and will be outdated by the time they ship

i think ill pass and wait for price/mhs to drop to knc level and see if its still worth it

Whats wrong with you people? Don't you realize when 100,000Mh/s hits the alt pools it will cause the price of all the alts to crash?

I bet 99% of the alts Fork to SCRYPT-N just to keep from getting destroyed.
+1 agree
asic scrypt will make ALT price crash
too much asic monster will destroy alt  Embarrassed
need Fork to SCRYPT-N ASAP

and by the way - we don't need asic to crash the prices - look at Vertcoin and the X11 coins - no one is interested. The prices are in the dumps

here's a fact - GPU mining will become a thing for the nerds - this market is going more and more to people with hashing power - it's plain and simple. There's a train coming down the tracks you can either climb on board or get out of the way to avoid being run over....and trust me - I feel your pain - I have three GPU mining rigs, but I embrace change not fight with algo's and I have multiple asic miners and it's a lot less stressful mining with asics and I can focus on managing my coins and not babysitting rigs.

and my electric bills are less also!

there are over 20,000 gridseeds running and they havn't crashed alt prices....

the sky is falling...

I'm wiling to lay odds that you're wrong...

mining farms didn't crash bitcoin....

I'm looking at their site now.

I'm a little impressed but not super impressed.

I have two Mining Asic Units on order which will give me 250 Mh/s and I expect them by the 2nd week in august. I'm in the first batch and I spent about $11k

so let's divide Cost/Mhs

Mining Asics : $11,000/250 : $44/Mhs

Now I look at these units and their top of the line is $15000 for 90+ MH - let's assume it's 100 MHs for arguments sake - : $15,000/100 : $150/mh

I'll wait the extra 8 weeks for such a huge advantage

Now - let's look at the Gridseed Blades VS their Lunar Lander Warp 2 @ 15 MHs

Blades 6 X $1,400 to get 30 MHs = $8,400 : 8400/30 = $280/Mhs
Lunar Lander Warp 2 : $5,350 : 5350/30 : $178/Mhs

Their Lunar Lander Warp 2 is a good deal and their Lander 1 is a good deal compared to Blades

so for what's available today - their Lander 1 & 2 are good deal - their higher end units are not worth the money when you could wait an extra 6 to 8 weeks and get three times the hashing power for the same money.

I've been in touch with Marc at Mining Asics and the beginning of August is realistic for their first batch of units.

But I think it's cool they've upped the ante - because it's good for all of us who mine scrypt coins and want the best bang for their buck.

Thanks, I'll take that into consideration.

Without wanting to steer this thread too off-topic, I'd have to say that the question is not necessarily about who is going to deliver first, but what is going to be the response of these smaller Chinese vendors to the eventual release of Zeus, Alpha, Fib, KnC and any others that might be delivering in the next few months.

Those companies tend to have a more 'Western' client base because their marketing image is more developed and, therefore, their customers feel a little more comfortable dealing with them than the less-than-well-known Chinese vendors.

The Innosilicon devices are 28nm, they've done a pretty impressive job in bringing that to market so soon. The price of their devices can only go down over time, if they get a good reputation for reliability we may see people dropping their pre-orders from the other companies as the comfort-level with the Chinese distributors increases.




oh - the Chinese will never be left behind in the dust - they'll drop their prices and be competitive - no doubt - hey - competition is good for all of us.

I absolutely agree and I am sure the guys at KNC Miner and Mining Asics have taken notice.

what gives me a lot of satisfaction is NOW I really know what a unit that can hash this high CAN ACTUALLY BE BUILT! I am sure you feel the same way!
