UPDATE
It appears as if ipollo will sell out of their first batch of miners before this proposal will be in a condition that justifies consideration for funding by the grin council. This is totally ok, in fact it is a great sign! There is plenty of time to make this idea come to life.
WHAT NOW?
The offer to the community still stands. If you would like to order a G1 or G1 mini from the community quote please let us know ASAP and have your grin or USDT ready for depositing into ipollo wallets. Full disclosure- This price agreement only covers the cost of the miner. The transportation logistics will have to be taken care of by individual buyers, but ipollo can recommend logistic companies.
