Ending in under an hour --Bump

This is a bitmit.net (like ebay with bitcoins) auction at https://www.bitmit.net/en/item/38654-butterfly-labs-jalepeno-4-5gh-s-asic-in-hand-not-pre-order
Now its at BTC9.005, or about $986. You can bid the equivalent amount of BTC on the auction if you want, but you will likely be outbid

Probably the same person who decided to name a tech company Butterfly Labs

Well, ASICs WILL become a necessity for mining at some point, because when there are a bunch of them the difficulty will explode. But right now, when there are only a few of them, they can mine at incredible speeds because they have a much faster hashrate than conventional GPUs. That's why the starting price is BTC4.5 for my auction (hopefully it will go for more), which is almost twice the price of a pre-order for one today

What TomUnderSea said is true...
I'm selling one now too, https://www.bitmit.net/en/item/38654-butterfly-labs-jalepeno-4-5gh-s-asic-in-hand-not-pre-order
I know I'm just promoting my own stuff, but i might be worth it to you

Thanks

Hi,

I just made this account to shamelessly promote my auction auction for a BFL Jalapeno
https://www.bitmit.net/en/item/38654-butterfly-labs-jalepeno-4-5gh-s-asic-in-hand-not-pre-order
Start time is in 30 minutes
Thanks, and you should definitely bid 5,000 BTC
