Latest news from Bitcoin Ultra:

7th Mar 2014

    The wait is over! From 16:00pm today we have opened orders to our first Enigma 1 miners, which are available on a first come first served basis. This batch of Enigma 1 is guaranteed to be dispatched from us on 31st March 2014.

    You can order your Enigma hardware at http://www.bitcoinultra.co.uk/shop

WHAT IS THIS? Sorry, we are not accepting pre-orders, but please, PAY US NOW, AND RECEIVE IT IN 3.5 WEEKS!!!
LIARS.
Please be extremely careful with this, guys. Do not sent them any money, before other people receive their hardware and confirm that this is legitimate. Better safe than sorry!

Playing Devil's Advocate here. It actually says they will not open for preorders until they can guarantee a delivery time. I thought that a bit weaselish right from the beginning, but it does allow them to open a bit earlier than "in hand".

I had hoped they weren't hedging, but still, they didn't lie.

If I don't see evidence pictures next week going to just call my credit card company and cancel/ and or find out what loophole has been used to screw me.

While I'm at it will need to cancel the card. Got enough problems with possible identity theft from the stolen Gox data.

Chris pics or didn't happen.

So dam annoying I just want to buy a bloody miner from a real company.

This so looks like a PSU in a box right now.

Notice how the end of the cables are the wrong way around compared to a KnC Jupiter.  Wink


damn, i'm sure glad that some of us are switched on!!! I never even noticed that.
that is in actual fact; you are correct, a PSU in a box.  Shocked

Maybe not even a PSU, just some 4pin to pci extension cables sticking out the back that you get with any graphics card these days. And a fan screwed on the inside. I've never seen a PSU with a white fan before.

t'would be a tad embarrassing for bitcoinultra if this is actually how their factory has built the rig. if the plugs are the wrong way around, I dread to think  how the cooling system is configured inside!!!

I so want it to be real because of UK electricity costs, but I don't think they have any electronics right now, just a case, fan and a PSU! Huh

Taking credit cards is a pretty cast iron guarantee, certainly in the UK we have total protection in the event of non-delivery.

Isn't waiting just the most fun! Sure its not but it can be made less uncomfortable.

Shame we only have Vaporware to look at until the 31st. Unless Chris got hit by a car/bus/meteor I really can not see what would have prevented him from posting the suggested pictures. Such a simple thing that would not only reassure customers but add credibility to the company and in turn generate more potential customers.

All we have to go on its the fact that it's a VAT registered, limited company and that we have been able to call a guy called Chris (no second name) and he seems nice and professional on the phone. 

So for UK customers at least I guess we have placed our "faith" in credit card companies and UK law to protect us.

I if I could pick I would choose the pictures 1000 times over.


Still it is the weekend and no doubt they were all very very busy on Friday I guess Chris could jump in here at any time with tons of prototype/miner porn construction pics and make everyone very happy. Or he could just leave his customers in the dark.

Have to wait and see I guess.

hopefully we'll have more pictures and possibly video of a running prototype - come monday. It's reasonable to think that bitcoinultra staff have all gone home to their families for the weekend. Heck if I'd been working on a mining rig for however long this thing has been in production for, i'd relish my weekends away from work!

I spoke to Chris for a total of around 40 mins a couple of days ago. He was very professional, very knowledgeable and answered everything I asked. I also emailed and received a response right away.

I felt very comfortable after speaking with him (could be that soothing British accent though) and was pushed over to the side of legitimate.

I have ordered 6 x Enigma-1 machines by wire transfer. Order #50.

Here we go now, this is where faith is required. I don't think April can come fast enough for me. This is my entire savings and I really want it to work out.

Why would anyone put their entire savings into mining? Please tell me this is a joke?Sad

Ah, I see. So you and I and everyone else here knows that "pickaxepete" is a troll? I am glad we agree.
Ummm, I'm a little confused. Perhaps it's that I am new to this forum. Perhaps it is that I do not spend a lot of time in forums. But can someone please clarify why I am being labeled a TROLL?

What exactly is it that I have done wrong to deserve a bashing in here?

When all I have done is describe my brief experience thus far and my purchase of mining equipment.

I find it offensive to be attacked when I have not intentionally done anything wrong, nor have I insulted anyone on this forum.

Whether you or anyone else agree with spending money for something unproven is your opinion and you are entitled to that.

I am not a child, I am 45 years old. I have made numerous investments in the past, some have worked out and some have not. Altogether I have have racked up a total of approximately $250,000 in losses, my investment wins have been greater.

If I choose to put the last of my current money - my savings - into a potentially risky venture then that is my decision and should be respected as such. I have made no suggestion that anyone else do the same. I have made no suggestion that anyone spend even a single dollar in anything. I have only mentioned what I have done.

If my decision bothers anyone then that is unfortunate, but it is my decision and I hope you can appreciate that aspect of the situation.

Being new to this forum does not make me new to computers, to the internet, to investing, to life.

Cheers.


Pickaxepete, my apologies - based on my subjective opinion I suspected your post was not true because I cannot imagine doing this myself in any shape or form. If it is true, good luck and hope all comes good for you.

Well put. Like I said earlier, the newbie bashing gets WAY out of hand on this forum.

Sounds like you've used your 45 years a little better than I have Cheesy
