Update from hashfast;
- HashFast claims that they are at fault for the delay in the application to substrate and no other company.
- MPP program is based entirely on BTC return if you paid in BTC, and fiat return if you paid in fiat. Three factors determine the ROI as given by the MPP: Device hash rate, network difficulty, and the estimated network hashrate. Individual operation uptime/downtime does not play a role in the calculation.
- HashFast states that it's their fault that pictures have not been available yet (because of the NDAs they signed with other companies that preclude their publishing) and that the NDAs themselves are not allowed to be published according to the other manufacturers. HashFast will be working in the near future to provide some kind of undeniable evidence of a functional product.
- Batch 1 will be shipped before Dec 31st, and HF anticipates that batch 2 will also be shipped before this time but cannot guarantee this claim given the current delay they have experienced.
- Throughput at the assembly facility will be over 1000 machines per day, and these machines will be sent directly from the assembly house to the customer.
- The case for refunds for customers who purchased miners before August 15th is being reviewed.
If you guys haven't seen already,
My hashfast contact and I have been working on the cgminer driver for a while for this protocol, and fortunately since they contacted me early, their final protocol is quite different to what they originally had in mind. I'm very pleased with the design overall, and the cgminer driver for it we've been working on will be pushed to a public repository tomorrow.
