So, we have a problem. Avalon need the money before this weekend starts to place orders for the parts. For those unbelievers, let's hope Jeff receives his unit before batch #2 starts selling on EST 9:00 AM, January 31st, 2013.

The spec is 6.6 ~ 6.7w per Gh/s. Speed is greater than 60Gh/s, batch size is 600, each unit is $1,500, payment gateway is provided by WalletBit, units will ship starting March 6th to April 5th, 2013.

Keep an eye on http://launch.avalon-asics.com as new information will be released on it every day until review happens.

The following is the no bullshit, no fine print terms of sales for Avalon batch #2.

  • Bitcoin Only - Batch #2 of Avalon will only accept bitcoins. Only Bitcoin will allow us to move half a million USD in a few hours into places they are suppose to go to. This will also allow us to automate the order system. I am aware some EU and SA country will have importing issues due to customs, but I see a possibility for re-sellers to grow and take care of this problem.


WalletBit sure is an amazing company.

Avalon: When BTCX arrives, immediately convert to local currency and send to Company A for parts.
WB: Got it!
Avalon: Then, when BTCX arrives, immediately convert to local currency and send to Company B for parts.
WB: Can do!
Avalon: Time is of essence, for we only have a few hour window open due to CNY.
WB: We've done what you requested a many a times, so don't worry.
Avalon: Great! The remaining BTC send to a mixer of your choice with its final destination being 1...(redacted).
