Roadmap: Litecoin ASIC Miner, VIPER (Scrypt)

Os pongo el email recibido hoy tal cual:

Greetings Miners!

On Monday (13/01/2014) we released an outline of our set roadmap, today as promised we will be releasing a timeline with dates on each aspect of the development process. This shows our commitment to transparency and gives a better idea on what exact stage we are on at all times. As we go through multiple developmental stages in parallel, we will be releasing regular detailed updates on our progress. Our next updates will be consistent developmental updates on what is being worked on and what has been achieved.

Litecoin ASIC miner (VIPER), soon pre-orders

Esta es una actualización (el email me ha llegado a la 1:32pm GMT+1) del estado en el que se encuentran los ASIC miner de la empresa Alpha Technologies llamados “Viper”. El 23 de diciembre desvelaron los precios de los dos modelos, 5Mh/s y 25Mh/s, os los pongo aquí mismo:

5Mh/s—————- 1.350 Libras esterlinas

25Mh/s————— 5.450 Libras esterlinas

Piden un depósito del 30% del precio total como garantía. El proceso de pre-orders lo abrirán en breve, dicen que en cuanto pasen las Navidades. Aquí os dejo info sobre “Terms of Order” y este es un ejemplo que han incluido en el email para que nos hagamos una idea del coste y el ahorro en energía entre sus ASIC´s y su equivalente en las GPU´s actuales:

Viper Device 25 Mh/s: 600watts (or below) £5450 (full cost)

GPU Rig 25 Mh/s: 10,000 watts (40 GPU’s @ 250watts x 625 Kh/s) £12,000 (excl. other costs)

Viper Device 5Mh/s: 100watts (or below) £1350 (full cost)

GPU Rig 5Mh/s: 2,000watts (8 GPU’s @ 250 watts x 625 Kh/s) £2,400 (excl. other costs)

N.B.: no son nada baratos pero eso ya lo sabíamos, ya que cualquier ASIC que resuelva el algoritmo Scrypt (Litecoin, Feathercoin, etc.), es más caro en comparación con los ASIC de bitcoins, requieren más potencia de memoria y más espacio en la misma. Resolver Scrypt es mucho más difícil que resolver SHA-256 de bitcoins y otros.

Nota del CEO:

This update is from CEO of Alpha Technology, Mohammed Akram:

First of all I would like to personally wish everyone a merry Christmas, happy holidays and good health. I understand a lot of people will be busy with family and enjoying holidays. So we will only be opening registration for now. Pre-ordering will be open after a few days when everyone is back.

In The Coming week what you can expect

1. Product Images and ASIC POC prototype demonstration (on high end FPGA platform)

2. Order books opening

Happy Christmas once again.
