This is a special sale of the first engineering run. This sale will continue until we are sold out of a total of 550 units. Shipments begin October 20-30, in order of purchase.
Introducing the Baby JetThis mining unit contains one HashFast Golden Nonce (GN) 28nm ASIC chip that performs 400 Ghash/s at nominal clock speed and consumes significantly significantly less than 1.0 W/GH. It can be underclocked for greater efficiency and overclocked for greater performance. The chip has on-die thermal controls to allow operation at its absolute maximum performance. This equipment is solely intended for use in commercial environments.

---------------------------------------------------------
I'm selling shares in hashing power of 10 units. Totaling 4000 GH/s. the price is
.15 btc per share. Each share represents 1Gh/s. A total of 4000 shares are available.
Hosted in a climate controlled environment. payout daily. The farm will payout 99% of profits after electricity/rent costs (nominal). 1% is kept on an operating account of the farm to pay for incidentals (for ex: Ethernet/USB cable replacement, power cord . and time to administer payouts etc...)
Changes to operations can be done by voting. Each share owned represents 1 vote.
This will run until it is no longer profitable. equipment will not be kept by anyone, but will be auctioned off and the final proceeds will be split up. if there are funds in 1% account, they will be split up.
Payment:
Please indicate the number of shares you wish to purchase and send payment to
1JdQUVY5SpkjMLKgEnQtA8bJyKyXMpE1RHplease post in the following format:
NIC; # of shares; btc sent; transaction id; first sending address of the transaction id; payout address (can be TBD which stands for to be determined later)Please do not send funds
unless you control your wallet and can sign a message with the sending address!!! Wallets like bitcoin qt and blockchain wallets can sign messages. Please do not send from an exchange, you do not control the sending address and can't prove
Disclaimer:
As with any ASIC, you need to understand that there are risks involved. Do not invest what you are not willing to lose. EVER and in ANYTHING! Having said that, you understand that I
can not make any guarantees on the manufacturer's behalf and every participant agrees to the terms and conditions HashFast attaches to the order.
Why am I getting involved in this? After having had contact with different people who are involved in bitcoin hardware and having solicited their opinions, I think HashFast will deliver. But this is only my opinion formulated based on the research I've been able to do. Please do your own research! And I have an empty computer room with plenty of space for 10 of these units and plenty of power 350W * 10 units.
