I am sure we were meant to have the low-production run about 2 weeks ago now...
Just to point out to everyone who keeps saying it..
the second half of November is not the same as "mid-November".
Unless we have new information, "on schedule for second half of November" is not "about 2 weeks ago now"
What are the current plans for chip development?ActiveMining is developing a 28nm Bitcoin mining chip using
eASIC.
- Chip samples delivered in 9 weeks;
- Low-volume chip production starting in 12 weeks, using an e-beam process;
- Normal volume chip production starting in 16-18 weeks.
September 19 + 9 calendar weeks (including public holidays and weekends) =
Thursday, November 21, 2013September 19 + 9 working weeks (excluding public holidays and weekends) =
Friday, December 20, 2013(Excluding 13 Saturdays, 13 Sundays and 3 US public holidays - Columbus Day, Veterans Day and Thanksgiving Day)If the 8 planets have aligned, maybe we received something on Thursday. Otherwise, please be realistic and stop making up dates.
At no point did I read that we would be hashing with prototypes right now, but do point out if I missed something.
I hope the NovemberAnnouncementTM will help clear things up.
