Well, not so bright expectations, I assume...

Realistically, Monero/CNV7 is the only hope for these cards. And that too only if Monero does not fork again and they are able to do 40+KH/s at the minimum. Otherwise, the batch of 5000 FPGAs, plus other group buys, will just kill each other on other algorithms.

Once we finish work on our shell requirements for shipping (Expected to be finished by monday -- we are in testing now and everything looks good), we can continue working on bitstreams. We should be able to get lyra2z to 70-80Mh/s pretty quickly, Then we will focus on either neoscrypt (expecting 30mh/s +/-) or phi2 (pretty wide range here, around 100Mh/s starting is a good bet).



This is the first time I am hearing Neoscrypt numbers. 30MH/s on Neo seems pretty good, about 15-20 1080Tis, with much lower power. But, the Neo total network is only 20,000 MH/s, which is equivalent to 700 odds FPGAs, so pretty small target.
