Your analysis sucks tbh. First of all wth is the point of this? Only one company on your list actually has a working product as of right now so who cares what you think about the rest of them? Pretty hard to compare companies\products when there is only one company shipping at the moment.
Second, I read your bs on the blades. Your main argument seemed to be that they weren't "innovative enough" (I wonder what that says about everyone who was mining scrypt with r9 280x's). Who cares if it is innovative? It was superior in every way to the 5 chip gridseeds and sold for the same price. It read like a piece one would write if they tried to get a deal with gridseed but couldn't. Seriously, you claimed you couldn't get more then 2Mh/s out of the thing. I personally have dozens of them running rock solid stable at 5.5, and I know many other people on here do too. Maybe you don't know how to work it?
I'm waiting with baited breath to see what illustrious gem of wisdom you have for us on the 8th day.
When we wrote that blog about the Gridseed Blade, we were one of the first one's to receive it...we quickly started testing it, and after many attempts on trying to reach their specified 5.5 MH/s WITHOUT over clocking, it was impossible. Because of these results, we just decided that it wasn't worth investing, at the time, and selling a product that was just a way for Gridseed to make more money....on clearly lazy excuse for a new product...also...just like the 5-chip unit, the price was quickly diluted and so the quality of the product dropped along with the price...
Were not undermining the product itself...I'm sure that with over clocking (something not everyone knows how to do I might add) you can easily get the 5.5MH/s...I am merely pointing out that Gridseed could care less about the idea of Crypto-Currency itself...they only want to make a quick buck and get the heck out to the next easy money thing....
We want to change that view of the crypto-currency community...that it's about unity and helping out one another.
So the big announcement that we have on the 8th day.........you'll see what we mean
Oh and we've updated our next blog....Fibonacci!
