The first one FTC USB block erupters be born, about 240Khash
-
Oh wow… Do you think your one of the first to do this?
Also, why does it it say 0.00khash/s in the screen capture?

Wow.
Congratulations ahy!
I tip thy hat to anyone who is able to have a go at doing this sort of hackery! (if that’s an appropriate word)

Cool.
Wonder what the prices on ebay will become :)
[/quote]Prices have not been finalized. Official sales version to sell at January 2014. Development motherboard is 550CNY,about 91$. I think USB block erupters with four GC3355 chip about 240$. ;)

Thank you so much for keeping us all in the loop of Chinese advancement.
-
woow…congrats mate 8)
-
for now at least, $240 is better spent on a GPU that can get more than 240Khash. It’s good to know what’s coming though. I imagine the technology will evolve pretty quickly and could leave GPU mining in the dust.
-
very cool! but $240 for 240 khs is kinda high,but i bet the power savings are great.
-
if i remember correctly it was around 2w pr unit. meaning those 240khashes only use 8w… have gpu’s beaten on that part ;D
Great work lizhi for keeping us up to date!

[/quote]These aren’t for mass consumption. They’re engineering samples for enthusiasts. The next step is taping out an ASIC from this design, from which you can expect to get anywhere from 2x to 10x the performace at 1/2 to 1/4 the power consumption. I imagine they’re selling these in order to raise the money to do this. Then we’ll see savings.

As long as the final price isnt astronomical then ill probably grab a few. idk what im going to do next summer,mining in texas during that time will make my apartment a sauna. -
Sell them exclusively on the FTC Marketplace. I’ll buy a few. :)
-
I’d love to buy one! This would be great for mining on my laptop.
-
Nice Development :o
-
Would love to buy one :)
-
im going to buy one and see if it is good as it says. and if im happy i be probably buying 1 new unit each months
-
would like to get one of those…
-
Give this man some rep.
Bump for pure awesomeness. Staying top of the list.

Wow!
You gotta message the forum when these things start going up for presale.
