You are a Tin-Foil hatter of the highest quality.

You cannot accept the fact they have a working K16 and that they are trying to figure out how to finish BKK's firmware for the K64. They paid BKK a royalty for the boards/firmware and it's not even finished but all you see is RED because you didn't get your units and become a "bitcoin millionaire".

It would be much more healthy for you to follow logic instead of conspiracy theories but I'm sure I must be talking to a wall when it comes to this.

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.

Now what bteic ?

Looks like someone called TH's bluff.
Now we will see...

well bteic is taking the fact that the code right there did not work for zipiju's 16 chip board and claiming that TH is lying that it has 16 hashing chips..so I guess he was wrong.

Uh, I wouldn't exactly call that a win, please hold your joy and excitement for when TH meets the 2 week challenge and finally redeems themselves from the many, many, many broken promises all over this thread. It's the only way they can ever recover from this hole they dug themselves into by ignoring the customers that funded their venture.

Now what bteic ?

I tested this by programing a PIC chip with this change.
After looking at the signals with a storage scope I believe it does send the correct nonce values to all 16 ASIC's. with no ranges duplicated.
So if you have all 16 chips installed this should fix the duplicated nonce ranges.

I am not a complete ass hat, I will stay over here, I promise.

Will be interested to see if you will get the boards in 2 weeks. Since you have supplied the chips, their shouldn't be any reason not to. Unless they can only do mass amounts of boards at a time due to programming of robotic mounting equipment. I'm not sure, haven't done any manufacturing. Still, they should tell you what's going on.

Thanks to credit card (Bank of America) and PayPal. I won't have to worry about this BS any longer. I checked my account and have received credit to my card for the full amount.  

Again, since it never happened, how can you be sure that we could not have done it, much less prove it? As I have repeatedly said, we were and are 100% ready to go into assembly as soon as the chips arrived. We have been fully ready for more than 2 weeks now. All the parts not ordered were the parts that can be delivered in a day or two from multiple sources. How hard is to understand this basic concept?

Because we didn't feel the need to do so. We have already tested the version 1, and we know exactly what was causing the error rates and that has been fixed in this version. If the boards you get do not work at the promised hashrate, you can blame us then. Right now you have no right to tell us how to run our business. We acknowledge that we have been lousy on customer support (we are fixing it), but on the technical and operational side, we have been very professional and have done everything the best we could do.

Most of you know that we have successfully assembled a K16 (Klondike design by BkkCoins) and are one of the first to get it mining (video below). Our design is based on BkkCoin's Klondike board. He has finalized the design and it is ready for production. We have decided to start taking pre-orders for assembly, for those who have ordered Avalon chips and would like to get them assembled. We will be assembling both K16 and K64 boards (K64 is just 4 K16s printed on the same board, connected with I2C cables/jumpers). K16 requires 16 Avalon chips, ad K64 requires 64 Avalon chips. Our boards will come with heatsinks and I2C cables (to daisy chain multiple boards). The boards can be daisy chained together, and only one of them has to be connected to a computer or a RasPi board running cgminer (cgminer driver is almost ready). The software required to run the boards will be available for free download.

Although our assembly facility can assemble up to 250 K64 boards a day (or 1000 K16 boards a day), we are expecting a huge rush initially due to a large number of chips being shipped by Avalon. 50% of the assembly resources will be dedicated to orders where TerraHash supplies the chips (full orders), and other 50% to the orders where you provide chips to TerraHash (assembly-only orders). With this we can ship the already pre-ordered full orders within the promised time of 2 weeks of receiving the chips. And for assembly-only orders, we will do our best to ensure a two week turnaround as well. However, it could be a little more during the initial rush. That is why we have decided to let people reserve a spot for assembly.

Here is how the assembly-only orders will be processed: For all the orders for which we have received the chips, we will start assembling the order which was placed first. We will not start processing an order until we receive all the chips required to process that order. Also, we will not be doing partial assembly, that is, we need 64 chips for the K64 and 16 chips for the K16. We can not assembly a K16 with less than 16 chips. We can not assemble a K64 with less than 64 chips.

Just make it a moderated thread to avoid any non-relevant stuff.

Hi,

I've made a thread to try and record what customers feel should happen. It will all be in a google document once there are some posts and will hopefully help Terrahash figure out what is best for customers.

Please do not troll in this thread, just follow the format and let your voice be heard.

Will be interested to see if you will get the boards in 2 weeks.

3 more days 'til the two weeks deadline. I'm asking them to just ship me individual k16s but as usual no respond.

I concur with keeping a simple list of questions to answer for TerraHash.  Thanks Bar.

My only addition would be a specific date for the refund in 3 months vs it being ambiguous.  It was also mentioned that they would do a partial refund immediately, but hopefully we could get a time frame for that as well as I do not believe anyone has gotten a response.

Lastly, it occurred to me that perhaps a third route would be for you to simply refund 50% or what makes financial sense, and then fully in 3 months.  It would at minimum show good faith, and I'm sure most (hopefully) would be patient enough to wait for the rest.  It would provide smoother cash flow distribution and shield you further from legal problems.

Any update on your chips?

Here is a current list of what Customers are asking (All the variations that I could find):

Refunds:

100% Refund right now
100% Refund in 3 Months
70% Refund Right now (Due to Part Costs that cannot be refunded)


Exchanges (No Additional Cost):

Receive current units ordered and 20% "Coupon" on Next Venture
Wait for Avalon Gen 2 Chips then build out orders and 20% "Coupon" on Next Venture
Use money spent on current order on Next Venture


If anyone can think of anymore legit variations I'll add them to the list, but off the top of my head these are the ones the community is asking for and what Terrahash offered.


If we can keep this thread organized it may help Terrahash come to a conclusion on what to do quicker. Right now there are plenty of options on the table and new information coming out all the time.

yea right.
