Hello,
could you tell me what I need to preorder you cards ?
I would take few of them, even 10 if I have some proof
of their work.
Do you need some down payment ?
Kind regards,
Dario.
p.s. you disabled messages from newbies..
UPDATES:
The community seems to be uneasy that there is only one developer announcing they will be providing firmware for the VCU1525. We are considering building a 'shell' framework (like the AWS shell) that would allow any FPGA developer to compile encrypted code for our boards. We would provide a development environment (vivado) to the dev, provide the mining software, communication interface and facilitate fee collection on the devs behalf. If there are any FPGA developers who would be interested in building firmwares to be released to the community please contact me.
Update:[/s]
We are currently planning to launch pre-orders on June 1st.
The first batch of the board will be a total of 1500 units at a cost of $3995 per unit. We will be shipping to the USA and CA for the first batch. We will likely support EU & Worldwide (Limited) starting with our second batch of devices. Estimated shipping date will be August 2018. It's possible (highly likely) we will ship some units prior to this date but it's unlikely we will be able to get our complete chip order before the end of August 2018.
I have been speaking with community developers and there is interest in having a centralized platform / software they can release their bitstreams through. We have plans to release our own bitstreams (Lyra2z, Keccak, Myriad-Groestl, NIST5). Others in the community have an expressed an interest to release firmwares for Cryptonight, Keccak, and some of the more advanced algos (X16R, Timetravel-10, etc). These bitstreams will have a devfee set by the developer of the bitstream. We will collect a portion of the devfee set by the dev to cover our costs of ongoing operations for maintaining the development platform.
