This is unfortunate, I think TerraHash has (had?) great potential.  Please fix whatever is going on quickly TerraHash team, or you need to come out and tell every little detail about it and not hide.  People will be forgiving if you go that way, or litigious the other.  This is not a threat, I have no orders with you, I just want things to work out for the mining community.

Hey guys. I wanted to weigh in on the discussion. I have 35 K16s on order with Terrahash. I live in the Bay Area and work in SF. I'm planning on stopping by TH/s office to say hello and see how things are going. I am planning on giving a full report after I make the visit. I'm not worried. I bought through Paypal, and am satisfied that I have buyer protection. I have not called Terrahash in the past week, but every time I have called (3 times so far) they have answered the phone and given me satisfactory answers. They have also replied to my emails in the past. I think they are making a good faith effort to fulfill their obligations to us. I am not a shill, and I understand everyone's frustration. I think that with what we have been through in the waiting game with BFL and Avalon everyone is on edge. I have 1.3 TH/s of miners on order with BFL, Bitmine, Avalon, Terrahash, and KNC. It's been depressing (at times VERY depressing) to think of how long we have had to wait for our pre-orders. I'm going to be patient. They are only 30 minutes away from where I work. I have a good feeling that we will get our miners as promised in August. I'm not necessarily expecting anything miraculous out of BFL or Avalon before then. Maybe we'll get those orders or maybe they'll be pushed back to September or October. As for KNC, who knows. Maybe we'll get the most awesome miners in the world to date, or maybe not. All of these purchases are a risk related investment. That's why I spread my funds between 5 companies. I still feel that Terrahash will very likely get our products to us before the other companies. Let them work and get our boards ready. I'll keep you guys posted regarding my upcoming visit.  

I'd be happy to kick in a few bucks for gas so you can make these trips

Good Idea. I was thinking of going up there in late July but I live 5 hours away and it would be a major trip.

Other than getting the boards hashing (which is one of the major obstacles). The cases and hosting taken care of.  No major production will happen until they get the chips. Not knowing if getting the boards is a problem?

If they have their chips and boards in production by late July they will likely make the August 15 delivery date.

Just sent out an email. We have secured two additional early-may orders of Avalon ASIC chips. We now have 40,000 chips (all ordered before May 16) which are enough to process all the orders that we received during our pre-order opening. If we get the Avalon chips by the end of this month, we will ship out all the orders by Mid August.

On a separate note, the test board is hashing now. I will post pics/videos tomorrow. Have a great weekend!

Maybe the video is going to be posted "tomorrow" as in one business day.  So looking forward to see it on monday. Have a great weekend everyone!



Yea..... Roll Eyes  keep up that wishful thinking.

I see a lot wrong with this picture.
1. Power is applied reversed ( as some one else already pointed out) the Black wire is normal the ground wire.
2. The red wire in a PC is normally the +5 volt wire not 12 volt.
3. The wires don't even looked soldered just kind stuck in the holes.
How is the power applied backwards? Wouldn't the outermost 3 pins be the ground, and then innermost 3 pins be the 12V line? IIRC, a PCIe 6pin jack that would be attached to the board would look like this:

               12V _______
                               |
        GROUND _____   |                   
                           |  |       
|========BOARD=====================================


On a 6-pin PCIe power connector, the negative wires are those nearer the plastic latch, so unless it's planned for the latch to face the bottom side of the board (dumb), the wires do appear to be connected backward.

With that said, they can use whatever wire colors they want for testing really.  There's no reason they couldn't have the black wire connected to positive.  It just looks dumb.

The reason it looks reversed is because the black marks on the 2 large electrolytic capacitors is the negative side.
And it looks like the red wire would connect to the negative side.

So today is the big reveal video of a working board? After spending 4+ hours reading through this.. I cannot wait to see. So many broken promises. Looks like another BFL to me.. yet I hope to be wrong.

Can someone ... who is more into this ... comment the picture ....

what do we see here, exactly?

For me ... it looks like they removed 12 chips and its still the same old board .... isn't ...it?

Just thinking.... out loud (and i don't want sued so this is not in any way a fact or more then a thought).    What if these updates they promise then don't ever do are just stall tactics for paypal to release the money to them and you miss the time where paypal has it frozen?

Thats EXACTLY what i was thinking the other day when i tried to get a refund and they denied it.

In the long run i don't think it will be a problem even though they denied it, paypal will side with us.

I actually went to bed last nite excited about tonite,,,,,,thinking about seeing our new boards hashing away.... everyone was  thrilled, could almost feel the excitement through my PC, and BTC was on the rise almost up to $200 a coin!,,,,and then I woke up Sad

Since they actually send out emails with their updates I should probably leave this thread as there's nothing here of importance (Even though it does give me some joy to rub real life in your face a little)

I think we can all agree that would be a great idea!
Ya know what Atomic, I think bargraphics is full of bologna (nice for BS) 8 - T.hash?.....I think he's on crack, probably never even mined before, a newbie....
