Do you have bitfury chips on hand for January delivery?

You mean BioInfoBank chips. Are they produced in Poland? https://bioinfobank.com/



all your ships are turn in the same way?

Guys, check this out:

I've noticed all the EU bit fury chips have Bio....... on them but the US ones have ß on them just different packaging marks?

Yeah, I remember asking that question before (but I'm too tired to search for it right now to quote it Smiley)

In essence - the ones with the ß symbol were from the first packaging batch, and the ones with the BioInfoBank were from the subsequent packaging. Both chips are from the same silicon dies, so the silicon part in them is identical. I think I someone mentioned that the marking is such because BioInfoBank was the entity that actually paid the bill. Which doesn't really matter for us - as long as the chips work fine I could care less what does it say on the packaging.

I tracked the origin of the chips back to the BioInfoBank 100TH-mine project https://picostocks.com/businessplan/19.pdf
What I then found out was that http://www.bitfury.org was in England! Cool
Makes me wonder why http://www.enterpoint.co.uk/cairnsmore/cairnsmore1.html never did a BitFury based board?  Huh
What a wasted opportunity, they were both in the same country!
