the site says they use a common(shared) R&D facility, so I'm assuming same for chips
Read their claims carefully.
5) As we have stated, we have been developing the ASICs in house for the past year. Our 20nm microprocessors are built here in the UK. We do not use an external foundry.
You really believe they have a secret 20nm foundry?
i agree with you dammit!
...were trying to verify...get with the program please. He nor I said we believed that, although Maui did say something similar, that it was possible, I don't think there is one either .. I'm freaking out over here trying to validate the biggest purchase of my life, and most are not exactly helping anyone
Wow phoenix, I actually thought you were smarter than this.
First, you knew it was a scam
Yeah, Cts miner looks like a BFL job all over again.... and no real credentials at all... just smoke, no links to the fabulous company's websites they speak of.... All claims, and zero proof. No linkdn, no profiles, references, or past projects to even check up on when they claim they've been doing this since the stone age....(1975)wow, before the web existed.....amazing. Did microprocessors even exist then? ...and they look 20ish... and the info on the "about us" page literally changed since last night from starting this in may 2012 to may 2013.... They claim to have made chips for.. Aircraft Testing, Remote Switchgear Operation, Stock Control, Instrumentation, Oil and Petrochemical Exploration, Marine Science and Environmental Control.... and not a single affiliate listed, not a single customer listed in a way we can check the background. Total Bullshit. Obvious scammers, and bad liars. Michael Richardson supposedly went to Cambridge... we could check that, that's it. Oh, and a working prototype on Jan 22nd, but three months to deliver from there? Must be an fpga, in which case, they lied again.. oh... "some changes to the internals have had to be made to the CirrusMine product which is why unfortunately we have been unable to supply you with detailed internal shots" Yeah, good excuse.
Total fishiness throughout the site. How could they possibly afford to almost fully develop a 5Th/s 20nm machine with no venture capitol, and not have a single picture?
KNC may have had terrible stick drawings, but had mass credentials to back up their claims, and a traceable history, which is why I chose KNC early on.
No credentials & no history to check = no $ from Ewik
Then you talk shit about me about your research and how cool these guys are
What on earth did you find that makes you think they are real, and shipping a 20nm product in two months?
Not only that, but they claim they are fabbing the 20nm chips in the UK! Phoenix really did his research.
DUH... CMS, parent company of CTS, has their own in-house manufacturing facility.. yes, for asics. They've made more asics than Carter's had liver pills.
So, who didn't do their homework again? After I spent all day on it...
lol
You also said that they have credentials and you wouldn't purchase / told your brother not to
Woooo hooo yourself.... you are a real piece of work.
You did absolutely no research, that much is obvious
You don't seem to understand. They claim they are fabricating 20nm chips. Do you even know what that is?
I give up. Please buy up all their devices so there are none left for the rest of us. Please do.
In case YOU don't know...it's a microprocessor! One they spent 8 months developing...Essex/Chelmsford Road Industrial Estate is hardly in the middle of nowhere btw.
I guess I'll have to say a 4th time...I never said I was buying any, and never recommended them either... and if I did... I wouldn't let you know about it.
I actually advised my brother against it.
Now you realize how friggin stupid it was to just ship of $40k to some unknown assholes in a shed. By the way, when you posted those things about how they have credentials, and that you and your brother checked them out and think they are legit, that kind of vouch may have caused other idiots to send money to these scammers as well. You know better. You have seen it happen, and yet you both fell for it and promoted them.
Lame.
