While waiting on this re-re-relaunch, I got my dads toolkit out and rewired one of my ASIC chips and it is now mining with a vertminer! Screwdriver and tape is what I used. 600 Ghas/s coming. That is exactly what I woke up to 4 hours ago from a dream. Now I am looking at GPU.s overheating and a shit launch.
ScryptN asics are already in the works. I say about 8 months according to the designers I've talked to. Some of them are the ones who have recently produced working Scrypt ASIC. It's only a matter of money.
