The holo scam continues...

>>12523979
why do you care? just buy a Raspberry Pi and install the software on it when it becomes available. This shit is literally for housewives and boomers that want to be part of the cool crypto gang.

I should start a crypto scam...

Just try and do it, it won't work, you'll be forced to have ports, just wait, only authorized hardware will be allowed. You guys are too optimistic about people's intentions.

You're too pessimistic. You'll be able to host from your browser.

Used up scraps from Weinstein. No feeters are filthy.

>holofuel
and I thought holochain is a retarded name

What is seriously in this? It doesn't even have a hard drive? It's literally some tiny single-board computer with an SD-card, ethernet port and two usb ports? This should cost 20 dollars plus maybe 10 bucks for the branded enclosure. Of course holofags who bought at 5 sats will buy this so whatever.

Only HoloChads will make it.

If it was a simple raspberry pi or off the shelf computer they would have already shipped by now. Duh. U guys think they ran an indiegogo and are manufacturing these things overseas just to put a box on a pi? Lmao

Maybe not off the shelf, but there are other single-board ARM based SoC micros out there similar to the PI they could have easily grabbed. Even if it is custom, designing a PCB and setting up a small-run for a PNP machine overseas isn't cost-prohibitive anymore. The layout options for SoC ARM stuff is also kind of limited, and is dependent on the IC selected. ARM SoC designs only allow a small specific topology. In other words, they're all pretty much the same, functionally. Adding additional functionality would add many additional components onto the board to support it, increasing the footprint quite a bit. So based on the size, it is hard to image this is any more sophisticated than similar designs, and it looks like it essentially is just providing the basics like any other ARM SoC design.

Off topic but do you design board layouts manually or automatically generate them with software?

>Off topic but do you design board layouts manually or automatically generate them with software?
Both. These days, it is literally impossible to manually design multi-layer boards at the current smd component size, due to issues with via depth, and RFI and EMI interference at that level. It is insane how things can interact IRL vs a Spice simulation. Multiple board revisions are usually required, even for seemingly perfect PCB designs.
Basically, the smaller SMD stuff in crucial/sensitive areas gets mostly auto-generated, and break-out customization gets manually done. So you're really just more or less creating the routes between things, while letting the software design the best layouts for the tight stuff based on your schematics and the specific ICs being used.
I still do some 100% manual designs for 2-sided boards in very small runs for hobby level projects.

>>12524025
That's not how hardware scams work. They will do exactly what skycoin did, ship some off the shelf garbage then claim being cheap is a feature and let everyone build whatever they want.

HoloPorts Still on Track for Q1 Delivery
Important Detail #1: HoloPort Packaging

https://medium.com/@H_O_L_O_/holoports-still-on-track-for-q1-delivery-a642489f53

Can we get a detailed guide on how to build your own holo port, for brainlets?

>>12524121
Wait, holo is above 2 sats? This is bullshit.

>>12523979
Reminds me of SKY. Meant for brainlets.

>>12523979
Surely this price is FUD. Surely they aren’t this naked in their scam

never going to make it

>>12523979
OP posts a literal scam store and nobody here even notices. That's not even the nano in the picture. The url for the real store is store.holo.host and the price of the nano is 119 dollars.

>>12524121
It's basically as OP said - a raspberry pi reset to 'mine' Holo, ie running a node. You could do the same with Chainlink - set up a Link node on a pi & sell it to retards after the Singularity. Plug and play for normies too stupid to set this shit up themselves.

>>12525049
Actually fascinating information for once on /biz/

>>12526669
>You are fake news

>>12523979
Why is there a picture of a holoport? Pic related 'muh antennas' fits the description.

>>12525962
>Still on track
Meaning that soon they won't be on track
