cloudhash cancelling order... Cry

What kind of idiots run cloudhash.com? He sent $80k to Terrahash before they were even taking pre-orders and expected JUNE delivery of hardware when everyone with half a brain knows Avalon wont even ship chips until earliest mid/late July.

How about the truth: cloudhash.com knows they are screwed and have been selling hash rate they can't deliver to their customers. Now they are looking for a scapegoat since they will NEVER be able to keep their obviously inflated promises of "pay us $900 and you will make 50 BTC in 24 months using 10 GH/s"

Terrahash are not the scammers here, the idiots behind cloudhash.com are, something anyone can figure out by just doing elementary math based on their offerings and even the most conservative BTC diff projections.

I for one hope that Terrahash are not stupid enough to ship orders by when someone placed 100 units in the order kart just to snag early order numbers but rather by payment time. Would totally ruin their reputation to allow for this type of sniping BS.

orders should of course ship by time of ACTUAL order, aka. When someone placed and paid for the unit, not by when a half assed ordering software assigned a arbitrary number on a possible sale.

As someone who actually had their shit together and ordered and paid within the first 20 minutes of pre-order opening I would like this conformed by Terrahash ASAP. And if this is not true I would like the option of canceling my order if it does fall inside the first 10k chip delivery as is would be unacceptable.

So...on this I2C cabling....having a bit of a time finding them...is it an I2C cable from board to board and then a single USB to host, or is it an I2C cable from each to an I2C hub with a single USB cable from hub to host? Are we expecting I2C connections to be less desirable then a separate USB connection from each board to host system?

Probably the dumbest question thus far...

I thought these boards can be powered by a standard ATX power supply PCI connector?
So, assuming we can use that, would we just then need a suitable chassis with cooling? (ATX mini\micro\nano case)

Can we confirm that heatsink's are indeed included?
(I bought a K64 and K16)

Yes, a pretty dumb question. If you had just searched this thread for 'PCI' or 'heatsink', the first results would have answered your question. I usually don't spoon feed, but since I'm trying to get my post count up:

Just note about shiping by payment time... I sent my BTC payment immediately after i got information about bitcoin address.
But how I know, the payment is confirmed after at least 3 - 6 confirmations in Bitcoin network.
Why should I be penalized for 30-60min delay if I paid immediately and support the Bitcoin network because I pay in BTC ?
Nonsense.

So, like a fool I made a purchase and I am about order # 1200. What exactly does that mean as far as how long after everyone else I will be receiving this thing? I know I won't be on the first order, what about the second?

Total speculation, but assuming they place another order for chips this week, its 6-8 weeks or so to take delivery. another 2 weeks to manufacture and deliver to you. 10 weeks or so is possible. September/October?

As long as I can make my money back in BTC after it is all said and done, I will be happy. Thanks for the estimate.

If these take until September / October, ROI is going to be very, very difficult. The amount of ASICs that will be active by mid to late August will blow our mind.

September/October? Of course this all depends on them able to build a working K16 K64 and ship with the existing chip order. Which is not a certainty. Cool

I doubt they would be able to determine whether an order has been paid for by the original purchaser or not and even if they could somehow do this I'm sure it is not a priority at the moment to weed those out. This is why I as well as every other paying customer find this method of organizing orders so ridiculous.

Hold the phone. Who made you the spokesperson for all paying customers? I am sure that everyone paying by international wire appreciates the order priority as is. Point 2, changing the order priority after they've already started taking orders is ridiculous for you to even suggest, and just a thinly veiled attempt to move your position up a few spots. Be happy with your place in line and forget about it. If others placed orders, they are free to do with them as they wish (selling them or not).
