HURRY HURRY HURRY AND PAY! Delivery is guaranteed by the 28th of February. Roll Eyes

That's right CX, you need to hurry up and get on the HashFast train before it leaves the station.

HashFast is offering the most bang/buck and you're going to regret mocking them instead of ordering on-sale Sierras.

meh.

I'd be all over it if they'd guarantee delivery before January 31, 2014. They do not, so I am not. How about December 15? for a product they claim will be ready in November? How is that asking too much? Why should I be confident in their ability to deliver in a timely fashion if they are not?

Sick to death of these pre-order gimmicks to gather up 0% interest financing all the time. Don't these guys have enough funding YET to produce a product and THEN offer it for sale? They could instantly distinguish themselves by simply behaving like a retailer instead of a vapor peddler.

You have to do your own research and make the determination which pre-orders are legit and which are sketchy.

Lumping all ASIC vendors together with BFL and Avalon is lazy, wrong, and hurts your investors.

The evidence that HashFast is miles ahead of the competition is readily available, should you make the effort to peruse it.

Their chips are not vapor, they are currently being deposited layer by layer on a wafers at TSMC and will be ready next month.

Did you miss the thread where cypherdoc dispelled the FUD with a full endorsement?

indeed.  i have met with them, talked with their engineers, and viewed detailed plans.  they are legit.

while this runup in the hashrate is concerning for everyone including HF, they are furiously working hard to deliver on time.  the chips are indeed being rocketed thru TSMC and should be delivered in October.  

i am excited by the Golden Nonce chip design.  thermal controls will help prevent frying of your investment and the cooling system tests have been very positive.  in fact, initial cooling estimates have been exceeded which should allow overclocking to 500GH/s or beyond.  no promises though, of course.

the thing is, the current pricing is dropping as i predicted a long time ago for asics in general which can only be good for miners.  these prices are extraordinary and i myself may have to order more.  this is going to keep the network decentralized and solo mining still affordable.  once the BTC price starts ascending again, which it will, those asic manufacturers with the most efficient chips are going to cause a shakeout in this industry.
