Now if we could just get similar treatment for our lovable retard from BFL, we might actually be making some headway. Guess I won't hold my breath...

I dont know if the market can bare another pre-order asic company. Unless you have plans to sell before sep/oct i dont think you'll find many buyers. Good luck.
After BFL and Avalon pre-orders, nobody in their right mind would order anything that does not ship immediately.
Still, KNC sold many, so maybe he can scam few people. Good Luck.
Not even if they announce a hand-picked team of engineers?
What forms of payment will you be accepting?
Bitcoin, obviously.
We'll also have a credit card processor, but we are open to suggestions....

Don't worry. This is useless FUD! I think he is referring to this: http://bitcoinnews.io/dan-kaminsky-predicts-the-end-of-the-current-proof-of-work-function/ But jgarzik proposed a bet to that guy and i think he didn't take it: https://twitter.com/tallystick/status/336212032414154752
So SirWizz please don't talk useless and without proof.
Hey pal, clear your thoughts please. I didn't "talk useless" (whatever that even means), I simply pointed to what someone else said and explained what my understanding of it was. You may agree with that or not. And just because someone took/didn't take a bet that does not mean anything, I hope you realize that
.If you spend 5 mins to read the links that i posted you will see that nobody from Bitcoin Foundation said anything about any ASIC craze. But yes please spread more FUD!
I watched the video and I haven't seen the people in attendance dismissing the idea put forward by Dan Kaminsky that something might have to change in the reward system due to the influx of the new ASICs. They didn't approve it right away either though. I believe they might be looking at it and whether something will change or not no one can say with certainty. The less changes the better as far as I am concerned, but I hope they won't sit idle if/while the hashing power slowly moves into the hands of a few entities and away from the rest of us.

I really doubt it. Besides, from what I have seen the Bitcoin Foundation plans to do something about the whole ASIC craze, no one knows for sure what they're going to do although from what I understood they say the current proof of work concept used to reward miners will change (they gave no details). I think at best things will continue to go on as they are for another few months so to plan now for an ASIC next year not knowing how next year will actually look like is a very risky endeavor.
OT: can this new ASIC have something to do with helveticoin?

Sorry, I can't remember where I have seen it, but someone had posted a link to a video from this year's Bitcoin conference. You might be able to find it if you do some digging.

Lets see what you got, interesting.
Can you please give us some details about your Asic Project? Where are you working from, Europe, Asia or USA? What chip size and power consumption? When do you expect the chip to be fabricated? Are you at a starting stage like xcrowd or labcoin? Thanks
John is preparing some of these details for release later today. We are getting the statement approved and signed by our ASIC Physical design partner, Uniquify Inc, to help credibility. We are working from San Jose and San Francisco, California, USA. Obtaining a domain by proxy is incredibly just shady.

The domain was purchased in a founder's wife's personal account before there was funding or an office.
Its not that weird, and definitely not shady.

The next mining company will hopefully give us a pre-announcement that their will be an upcoming announcement of the "official announcement". That's how we know they are serious...who will be the first one to go 3 deep on their pre-anouncement announcements?

Cant be real... they did not reserve the second post
I'm new to this forum, obviously. (though my boss, Simon Barber is not)
Not sure what that means? Can you clarify?

Yes, you probably have. Lots of people here harp on "reputation" and such crap before they send off their bitcoins to vendors. We are so well established, we even have our own wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombo.comNow, send all your bitcoins to the address in my signature.
I will soon be announcing an intention to announce a product. You can get all the details at our website, here: http://zombo.com/
LOL(the only limit is... yourself)

We will be announcing our product line in 6 days on our website, and anyone considering buying gear right now might be smart to hold off until then.
Can you comment, yes or no, now, on this time line template:t=0 Announce announcement to be made at t+7
t=7 Announce kick-ass product to be ready at t+X (60 <= X)
t=7 Announce pre-sales of kick-ass product.
Yes, that is correct. Except t=7 = launch presales of product.

What forms of payment will you be accepting?
Western Union and organs mailed in jiffy bags.

Chances are preorders. That is the thing to do anymore.

Hey Guys, that is a different company, making a machine called fast-hash. We are hashfast.com, with no relation with virtual mining corp, just to be clear. We will be announcing our product line in 6 days on our website, and anyone considering buying gear right now might be smart to hold off until then.

...who will be the first one to go 3 deep on their pre-anouncement announcements?
Maybe a pre-announcement about a series of pre-announcements that will end up in an announcement of the machine and opening of pre pre-orders?
Why not just post when you have an announcement, rather than announcing an upcoming announcement.
Teasing the teaser.
+1 good one !

Is that one even legit? Looks pretty comparable price wise to KnC/BitFury.http://virtualminingcorp.com/shop1/index.php?id_product=10&controller=product&ad=1
They (VMC) are advertising on this forum so it has to be legit [/sarc]
Anyway the picture they are using for their 256GH/s module is of the innards of an Avalon, which does not engender confidence I think. The spec for the bare-chips looks legit at 16GH/s though.
Yeah, nothing on their website led me to think any of it was really legit, other than the fact that they are coming in at relatively close numbers to some of what I consider to be some of the more reputable companies selling future ASICs.
I did love that thread where when trying to tell the truth about the scam companies via ads there are tons of restrictions, but when companies put up ads with bogus promises there are no restrictions imposed upon them (and refuse to put scammer tags on people who continue to prove to be scams). It's a little bit too obvious how in bed the mods are with some of these guys unfortunately
