ain't gon happen... why bother.
I've asked, you've asked we've all fucken asked over and over and over and over and over but Ken responds like a child and gives lame vague empty answers.

Kind of a bummer to go back through the old thread and realize just how many of the "believers" have jump off this fucken shit show.

I only wish I'd cleared out on Sept 5 when I had the intuitive inclination to...

Now I'm stuck in this mud... and it just seems to be sinking faster everyday that Ken hems and haws like a muttering mule around our legitimate questions.

i am happy you see the light now

You don't really need a PR firm to keep your shareholders happy, and they are super expensive anyway. 200% better to hire a committed shareholder in this topic as a "rep", like for example zumzero. Or just do it yourself you know.. I mean, it's not that big of a deal, even for the busiest of busiest people, to take half an hour or so to skim & potentially reply to what the investors are saying.

So apparently it is 'months' not 'weeks'.

Any news on this?

Ken

Its only fair, if i take zumzero off my ignore list for posting what the majority are thinking, you must stop ignoring what is reasonable and necessary???

That's the reason why a PR is needed.

Couldn't agree more - a few lines giving a general outline of what is going on and what sort of time frame we are looking at is all people want.

Q1: Could you provide more information about the team designing the boards?


A1: Over 15 years developing electronics

Q1: Could you provide more information about the team designing the boards?


A2:  Hi guys, in response to this question, I'd like to say that I'm unable to tell you the company name right now for reason X, however once we have reached stage Y, I will make this information public.
What I can say is that I have worked on a couple of projects with this team and am always very impressed by their professionalism and ability to produce high quality products on time.  I could have gone with other companies for a better deal, but feel the peace of mind I get working with these guys is worth the extra bitcoin as we only need to look at recent events with one of our competitiors and the rough time they are having with catastrophic board failures.  Our engineering team have a proven track record and have worked with large players in this space for the last 15 years.  We are watching events closely with KnC and are keen to understand what went wrong so that we can avoid similar issues.

DISCLAIMER:  Answer 2 was not written by Ken, but myself.  This may give Ken an idea about how a few choice words can keep the shareholders happy, without giving away sensitive information.  It's nice to see Ken online more often these days, and it's well within his ability to make posts like this.  Little tidbits like this would bolster confidence and see a boost in shareprice, and would also give us something tangible to discuss in this thread rather than the constant bickering and troll policing.

I apologise, I thought you wrote the original message but I was wrong:


So I'll ask that question again but to 4ju5tice:

Do you know who designed the KnC chips and why do you think eAsic is better?

I'm in it since the start. The idea is sound and worth the risk. Communication was much better in the early days tho, still the information to assess the investment on was regardless always pretty limited. What Ken thought of his investors, was/is unknown and thus wasn't a metric for me.

I sold pretty much all my labcoin at the peak, I felt it was overvalued but I never thought it was going to crash & burn like it did, which I feel in retrospect was mainly due to their incompetency. While their (dis)ablities are hard to overcome, I believe transparent and honest management could have steered it at least from collapsing the way it did.
Even though this is completely non-Ken related, it would be so stupid to repeat this obvious mistake for ActM. We have a lot of smart investors that can bring A LOT of valuable knowledge to the table on any topic whatsoever. The coming weeks we are arriving at a turning point, still I have too little information to properly judge its outlook. Imo proper, honest, open communication would be the best wind to sail this thing north long term.

If you think that the person whom you devoted money to believes you are a moron. Why did you invest?

Followed the transfer instructions to the letter, a week later still no shares on BitFunder.

On the other hand, a fledgling company such as ActM, shipping absolutely nothing, has no legal entanglements to worry about

But it is exactly what you are saying - you said 'it's not an issue with the ASICs anyway'.

So what are you saying? You don't seem to be sure yourself.


Now, no-one said what you 'quote' above. You are being misleading - that is NOT a direct quote from anyone on here as you make it out to be.

I haven't commented atall on the quality of eASIC chips nor have I suggested that they will be better quality than KnC chips. So why are you putting words into my mouth?

What I will say is that a fledgling company that ships consumables that catch fire on a regular basis is likely to be shut down, or face a huge recall bill, or a huge legal bill, and if unlucky could be facing charges of killing or maiming through supplying dangerous equipment.

+1

Do you know who designed the KnC chips and why do you think eAsic is better?

I don't think you have examined these exploding boards and I'm sure you cannot say with certainty that a power draw irregularity within the chip is not causing the capacitors to over charge and catch fire. So you are wrong, this could be a problem that can be sourced back to the chip. So if you strive for accuracy you have completely failed. 100% conjecture - you win.
