Hi Amir.

What is the order status of your chips?
+1

Knight, any chance you'd be in the bay area to checkin on this Amir character?

I'm looking at options going forward kooks.

Personally I just want my boards. I don't want any gen2 from Bitsyncom. Steamboat announced in an update letter to buyers that Yifu said the gen2 chips most likely will not ship until November at the earliest. Doesn't build much confidence there.

I'll make some attempts to contact Amir today. If I am unable to contact him, I will make another visit to their office by next week. Things are very busy for me at work and I don't have time to stop by today. 

knightlife, didnt you mention you were a police officer? Or am I thinking of someone else? If so can you call in a favor to hunt these guys down?

Yeah,  call in the SWAT.  Smiley

Terrahash,

Thank you for your work.
I want to continue to support an open-sourced project, but to make an informed decision on how to proceed with my multiple orders I need more data:

1. What is the hashrate of the gen 2 Avalon chip?

2. When can they ship?

3. When would you be able to ship the finished units to us?

4. Do you consider your k16 solution stable and a solid fix for production?
Your video appears to show (I could be wrong) only a 2 gig machine? Implying you only solved it for 8 chips?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOZ22GfUdzs
Can you address this?

5. Can you show a working model of a k64?

6. What will be the price of a k16 & a k64 with 55nm Avalon chips?

7. If the 110nm chips are delivered to you while we are waiting for these vital questions to be answered, will we be subject to taking current 110nm orders with no other options?


Thank you for your time & work, it is much appreciated Smiley


Peace.

Your move bar / terrahash / amir, what say you!

Can the remaining developers chime in and settle a debate?
Does anybody have a working 16 chip klondike running at 333*16?

To clarify on this, it would be a 16 chip Klondike at 282*16 (4.5GH as Advertised) with low HW Errors.

Also if whoever did this, did so using Terrahash's code.


You are using 260pF for C274 right?

In order to hash with 16 chips, you need to make the following modifications in klondike.c, from line 159:

Code:
    Status.ChipCount = 16;
   
    // pre-calc nonce range values
    BankSize = (Status.ChipCount+1)/2;
    Status.MaxCount = WORK_TICKS / BankSize / 2;
    NonceRanges[0] = 0;
    for(BYTE x = 1; x < BankSize; x++)
        NonceRanges[x] = NonceRanges[x-1] + BankRanges[BankSize-1];

If you look at that code, you see, that only 8 nonce ranges are defined.
How could this work with 16 chips? Any idea?
Also, the NonceRanges were defined as NonceRanges[8].
And for everyone here, fully populated board with 16 chips IS NOT WORKING with those firmware modifications that Terrahash posted above.

I think the bigger issue right now is TH canceling the orders with Avalon UNLESS we can get them to upgrade the order to Gen2 for same cost.
At the same time we have no knowledge of what Gen2 will actually be and when it will be delivered.
Avalon should really just convert all existing orders to Gen2 unless buyers request otherwise.

Blah blah blah.. my head is all hurting from this BTC thing, lol.

Can you imagine how Terrahash feels? The only thing holding them back from completing their K64 is BKKs absence (Even though they paid him for his service)

They are not privileged to information that we are not regarding Avalon Chips. They are trying to figure out what the best scenario is as well and Yifu/Trolling Customers & NON-Customers/BKK are not making it easy which is why I put together a thread for listing all of the solutions and finding out what customers want.

Bar, how could you possibly know for a fact what it is that is holding TerraHash / Amir back? Do you speak to them on the phone, sms, email? If not then are you an authorised spokesperson for them? If you are not an authorised spokesperson nor in communication with them, then what you are saying is pure conjecture.

Nobody cares anymore. Stop cheerleading.

I guess this is your most recent excuse for them if they do not meeting the two week promise?

Reminder:

They also still have some time left for their "two week" timeframe for getting a board populated and sent out.
I'll take back everything I have said about Terrahash if they fail to deliver that working board at full spec or better.

Yeah, I know they are in a bad position. Wouldn't want to be them right now. Cant really blame them yet as Step #1 was the chips, then if they couldn't send the product in Step #2 then they would deserve what's coming to them.
Lack of communication.., yeah they are probably thee worst offenders.

I noticed absence of BKK, hmmm Sad

Trusting Yifu had been out the window for a long time. lol

why dont you go BLAST BKKCOINS for totally disapearing for the last 2 weeks and not saying a word? it is his project/his job to complete the firmware no one elses, the fact that he sat on his hands for the last 5+ weeks while he had a completely filled v3.0 board is not anyone elses fault but his..People also paid BKKcoins a lot of money to deliver and he is the one who is most capable of finishing the project not random DIY people trying to figure out his code..All terrahash should have needed to do was bring the damn chips to facility and program the PIC and be done. Both chips failed to deliver as well as the Klondike project initiated by BKK, end of story.  Yeah TH doesn't communicate, obviously its because they got fucked not once, but twice. So i dont think they need douchebag mfers like you ramming shit down their throat.

O my F'in lord... Should we blame the gas prices and global warming on Terrahash's failures to produce 1 working K16 sample too???
Wake up!

Terrahash advertised a product he could not make and thus will not make.
Remember the blame game? First it was Cloudhash, then YiFu and now it is BKK?! wtf.
It is not the customers problem what development/supply chain issue they are having.

Next it is going to be the cases that were never ordered, followed by PSUs getting stuck in customs!
Dont you get it?


That's why you never pre-order shiny cases for bitcoin mining. First was TH then xCrowd and both failed to deliver.

Update on the K64: Individual K16s are working fine. Inter-board communication (I2C) is not yet functional because BkkCoins (from whom we licensed the design) never finished the firmware and is unresponsive for over a week. I am trying to fix it, and hopefully it will be up and running soon.


Since i2c isnt working, can we just daisy chain usb the  4 x k16.

Yeah that would work fine just use a hub to connect them all up.

Not willingly for sure.

especially when he failed to get even a single fully working prototype and lied to us numerous times on TH's readiness.

It is a matter of time before we hear about this scammer on the news.  

I doubt their intentions were to be a scammer, they just really suck. Sure, I'm positive they have the technical skills to pull this off, but they couldn't be worse in terms of having what it takes to actually operate a business with customers.

The problem is he's not giving people their full money back.

They took preorder's for asic boards w chips, reservations, and introduced their 2 petahash hosting.

Then this flaming man even has the nerve to say 50-60% refund


Im sick of this piece of shits talk on the boards, everything is in his btch ass go back to sleep 3 month bs.

Then theres these panzys defending him and mixing it all up, one even made up some 70% refund bullshit.

Then all the people who are following what they can, some are buying the bullshit like 20% coupon WTF do people need a fcking coupon for, this put order money on the hosting because they cant do shit this Terrahash just took their money and wont return it , some cheering they got a CC refund after calling their bank.


He speaks like all miners are braindead moneybags,  hiding from the scene while customers are fighting one another.


If you dont give me my money back im gona beat your a44 you a44 hole.





cmon bar be fair, its obvious english is not his first language.

Are you really blaming BKKCoins for this? (you have to be kidding me), if so on behalf of BKKCoins (fuck you)

First TerraHash / Amir refused to honor refunds.
Then TerraHash / Amir refused to communicate with people that wanted refunds.
Then TerraHash / Amir refused to communicate with customers.
Then TerraHash / Amir refused to communicate with other developers.

TerraHash / Amir didn't stop communicating because they got fucked not once but twice but because for some reason believe that they are above that, or we don't deserve answers.

I'm a douche bag mfer for calling them out on their BS when they are the ones that have stolen 100's of thousands of dollars and refuses, outright refuses to speak to anybody regarding anything? I really don't know what to say....

You are blind beyond all reasoning.
You got your money back didnt you? So go away. We all paid trusting that AVALON and BKKcoins could deliver, neither have or will. So yes I will put blame on them before terrahash..I also ordered bare boards from BKK months ago which were supposed to be ready to ship end of july, and he has not even shipped bare boards/PIC, guess he is a scammer as well.

I already fully understand you don't count anything other than a video of the unit hashing as valid proof (Even though that can also be "Faked") but your proof is above, take it or leave it.

Yeah, that doesnt work for anyone with an IQ of >100.
