I don't mind taking time to judge bets, but this one is pretty clear. I do not trust betsofbitco.in anymore. See my opinion below. If this was credible their wouldn't be a 15 page argument.
Butterfly Labs will not ship ASIC-based Bitforce SC products before April 2013 if units were shipped to regular customers, at least 1 other person should receive their(s) sometime soon. If not, this is a prototype, in-house model.
This bet concerns the 3 Butterfly Labs Bitforce SC products announced here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=87934.msg966886#msg966886
For this statement to be false, both of the two following conditions must be met:
-Before April 1st 2013, Eastern time was listed in the conditions below: The OP was 1:36 AM April First (EST)
-at least one BFL customer Is this what the rest of the customers are getting, a prototype?
-with a bitcointalk.org forum account established prior to the bet's opening date true
-shall post detailed and credible photos of the device on the forum, Credible?? What is the device in the picture? I see two heatsinks. I know for a fact that natural convection heat transfer will not dissipate ~176W throughout either 1 or both those without incurring >100*C operating temps
-including photos of it operating, Whatever I am looking at, something is operating
-and report its hashrate. Is this the hash rate the other customers are going to get?
-This customer cannot be a BFL employee. regular customers do not program or affiliate with BFL past purchasing
The device must achieve at least 75% of its advertised hashrate. originally 60Gh/s. Yahoo article from the bet link mentioned 40 Gh/s ( 25/40 = 62.5% )
I do have a small stake in this bet.
If anything, withhold the bets until other customers get their units and see if the numbers are the same as this one (only with a case). This will allow other customers to get 30Gh/s at 176w units by motivating BFL to get it working to this standard.
This unit is sitting at BFL with the photo taken by josh..............
