Some images of the board:
Very nice, pity about the commercial price of what once started as a great DIY project.
Very pity about the greedy assholes behind the cryptx name you mean?
Do take note that they gouge money out of us who are in a pinch to get at least something back from the Avalon fiasco, then turn around and use that money to build their own hashing farm to make sure we'll never even break even.
Every vendor seems set to screw everyone as hard as they can.
you seem to have missed the class on FREE MARKET 101.
they are building devices that make money, and can easily be utilized to make money for themselves. (some people will bitch about a manufacturer deploying massive hashrate)
they are making these available at a price that people will apparently pay. (some people will bitch about charging out the ass)
they can mine and make money with thier hardware if people arnt paying the advertised price, and itll be up to them to decide if they want to mine or drop the price to offload units (which, again, people will bitch is unfair to the buyers)
IT IS FAIR. They made a design, they built the design, and they have right to use the product as they see fit (selling it for a profit, or mining on it for a profit), and have every right in the world to decide what price to sell at, if at all. For every complaining 'it wont ROI' post in the asicminer thread, 5 people made purchases
if im missing something, please fill me in...
yes you are missing allot, you know that people paid for the bitburner xx, and x, didn't get a product because of Yifu fucking the hole community. then burnin stated that he cant refund 100% of the money paid because he will bankrupt, which is understandable, it wasn't his fault that Yifu fucked up. but he offered an upgrade to these boards and estimated the cost to 470€+VAT. or 50% refund in mid of October.
now go again to the first post and read all the 8 pages and get back and tell me what you think ?
all this started as DIY, for miners and manufactures profit, people showed all support to burnin and put faith on him, now this fuckers turned this up in the wrong direction. so how do you expect people to not bitch about it ?
just for the record, I already given up on this one.
