P.G. is insinuating that bfl is getting their upcoming 28nm chips from active mining.

Is he insinuating that because eAsic uses Global Foundries as one of their fabs, and that BFL uses Global Foundries to fab their 28nm as well that BFL is getting their 28nm from us? Thats a very tenuous connection at best.

He mentioned that the tapeout dates are the same also.

Im pretty certain that ActM hasnt said when tapeout is - because we simply dont know yet.

EDIT: Also as far as I am aware, we are not supplying BFL with anything.

I read the thread, and I appreciate the intensive investigation being done by this determined individual, but still not understanding any connection this has to Ken.

Sorry folks. I've been on lockdown but I'm jumping bail because I will not simply stand by and watch an individual try to sabotage this company in the way this mentalist Phinnaeus Cage is about to.

Phinnaeus Cage has a bee in his bonnet over BFL and has been relentless in his pursuit of the so called scammers. In his blinkered and somewhat irrational obsession, he has now stumbled upon a Ken conspiracy all of his own making. He is relentless in his pursuit of 'his truth' and will dig up all sorts of shit and try to make off the wall connections to feed his crazy ideas.

Make no mistake, this guy has his sights set on Ken and he is dangerous. Not for our company, just don't leave your puppies alone with him.

He created a juvenile conspiracy thread about someone called Jeff Ownby which I've just scanned, and it has 51 posts. Unbelievably, only 17 of those are not his. lol

There are a few characters on this forum whom I shan't be buying Christmas cards for, but this is the first genuinely crazy person I've seen. Doo-lally or what?

Hello everyone,

I'm in with ActM but I've to say I've always been suspicious about Ken's reliability. That's why I've sent a lot of e-mails to eASIC to have a confirmation about a relationship between them and VMC, and few days ago I received a reply:

my question:

Quote

Dear eASIC,

The Virtual Mining Corporation and his CEO Kenneth Slaughter are claiming that are involved with you to develop a 28nm ASIC chip able to mine bitcoin, and it should be the actual state-of-art in the mining bitcoin field.

I know that these are probably reserved information, but I'd just like to know whether such a relationship exists to avoid scams and inferences about you and the VMC CEO.

the answer:

Quote

Hello

I can reveal that we have engaged in discussions with VMC, however those discussions are protected under NDA. Therefore for further details I would suggest you contact VMC directly

///Paul

I hope this is interesting for someone of you Wink

You're late to that party! Grin

Thanks to Jeff Ownby scrubbing the internet, his actions caused me to dig a little deeper. Care to guess where those 28nm chips are coming from?

ff - before you sign off on this one can you please confirm that commercially sensitive news that may effect share price will be given to the Board at the same time it is given to the share holders and that is by a post on this thread only? Thanks.

It's Advisory Board appointed by Ken, why do you think Cheerleaders will get inside info?

This Board is merely exist for derailing key topic such as timeline,roadmap, teammember etc, and covering ass of Ken. And their posts are long but with nothing useful.

See, we have Board, we have Ken's phone number,what else are you greedy shareholders worrying about? becareful,I will add you to my ignore list.

^This one shows potential.

You learn quickly, Grasshopper!

110% difficulty rise in the last 30 days. Poor guys with preorders coming in some months only... http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/

Yeah, I'd hate to have a personal preorder outstanding...

This rate of difficulty increase is making foresight and proper future planning all the more important. It's almost impossible to understate this.

decentralize EVERYTHING...

Just wondering how this rise in difficulty factors into ActM's future plans:

(Grabbed from reddit):

Quote

We went from 19m to 65m in roughly 2 months:
65,750,060 -> 29.40%
50,810,339 -> 35.88%
37,392,766 -> 19.63%
31,256,961 -> 19.47%
26,162,876 -> 22.63%
21,335,329 -> 10.32%
19,339,258 -> 23.92%

I ran the numbers on those chips and they would be a real gamble even at half off. With 75-90% monthly increases we would have to get the chips into Avalon clones and hashing no later than the first half of October to make any sort of profit.

The network hash rate is unlikely to continue to grow at 75-90% for the next 12 months, as it becomes less profitable to buy mining equipment the increases will level off and likely drop.

One have to take the assembly cost in account that are again the costs the chips costs originally on top too.

But i think the rise will go on a long time. Since at the moment the people dont buy because its profitable... they pre-buy and that means when the hardware comes its not profitable anymore. They only dont know yet. And the difficulty will rise very strong because of all that prebought hardware.
