Distribution 316996 is complete. nastyfans thanks its donators!
Why are the minted seats so expensive? For 0.5 BTC I could buy 10 seats and still have enough left over for 5-6oz silver. That is a steep price to pay for 1 seat + 1oz.
Indeed. These are extremely unique and limited. When they're gone, they're gone (only 100 of the 5oz coins will be minted). There are also lots of costs involved. Everything from having the dies crafted, generating the vanity addresses, creating designs, manufacturing holograms, replacing engraver heads, buying shipping materials, & time have to be considered. 50% of the price is also a donation to NastyFans.
The 5oz coin will be cheaper on a per oz basis, but will still not be close to the spot price of silver and online seats sold separately.
That's a great feature to add nonnakip and should bring more miners our way.
Really looking forward to the 5oz silvers coins!

Since we proxy connections to our P2Pool node I decide to add IPv6 support. This is a big feature because it allows IPv6 users to mine with P2Pool.
P2Pool does not support IPv6. Through NastyPool it does: nastyfans.org:9332
Good call! P2Pool does not support IPv6. Through NastyPool it does: nastyfans.org:9332

We also offer 1g silver rounds. See the OP.
We don't buy bars and we don't mint other people's designs.

Never say never. It is just a matter of a commercial decision I believe
edit: yep, you're right. You're not minting but engraving, thats a difference.

We have our own coins minted. The next batch will be 5oz rounds.
Cool. So you buy just bars? How much is the stamp if I wanted to mint? 5oz seems a lot, way too much, the lower amount of minted coins the more expensive it is but the coins can be priced higher. Just thinking of kryptologika's coins some day
I think silver in sheets would be ideal, easy to breake and divide say 10x10 with 1g as the smallest unit with logo etc.

so, there will be a surplus? any plans on what will be done with it?
I am waiting to see BTC in a wallet before I put too much thought into it. However, a good use might be to pay down debt and buy a couple hundred ounces of silver for the next batch of physical seat coins.
Can I ask where are you planning to buy siler and in what form? Coins or bars? I am using http://silber.celticgold.eu/nl_en/buy-silver.html
Someone is asking if I escrowed them somewhere. Well I did not, I just possess them and keep in a safe place. Perhaps a trusted silver escrow fund would be a good idea ? Storage is a problem however. We have merrionvaults.ie here in Dublin.
Silver has a great potential!

Paying down debt is always good... one less thing...=squeak=

I looked into our BFL orders and we should be due back ~$20,000 in BTC if I understand correctly. One reason to take a positive from the currently falling BTC price. No word when BFL will actually be issuing the refunds, but I assume we'll hear much more on the subject this week.
I have the BFL 55 gh/s unit back up and running.
Hopefully now it will not eat any more PSUs.

Monarch to begin shipping
While PCB performance specifications have come in above the 600GH we originally projected, we have not yet hit the 1TH/s per PCB mark that we set for ourselves based on the strength of the underlying ASIC chip. We have achieved much higher speeds on test boards, but in order to be able to ship now we have stabilized the board at 700GH/s with power efficiency of 0.70 W/GH (+/- 10%). While we will continue to pursue the 1TH version of the Monarch for subsequent delivery, we want to get the best product we can out to you now. Shipping of Monarchs will begin next week.
Here is an image of the Monarch ready for shipment to customers right now.
(Please note the form factor with water cooling instead of air cooling)
As a reward for customers' patience and loyalty, we are adjusting the price of the 700 GH/s boards to $1,379 (ONLY $1.97/GH) and will be providing rebates/refunds for the difference. (Does not include cloud mining or Mining by the GH)
For those interested in running cards in power efficiency mode, here is a chart of power consumption at different speeds (@220V):
GH Total W W/GH
550 339 0.62
600 368 0.61
650 432 0.66
700 471 0.70
730 530 0.73
780 609 0.78
Specific details about updates to customer orders will be emailed and posted to each customers’ dashboards as boards are ready to be shipped.
