Topic: Black Arrow 28nm 100Ghash Bitcoin ASIC from $0.49/GH/s - page 260. (Read 787053 times)

Why are you so hostile and defensive for this anonymous company that has collected so much money from members here and failed to produce on time? PG comes up with the good dirt, and its a funny way to pass the time. If you are just acting like this because you are scared that you got ripped off as well, why don't you request a refund from BA and see how that goes. Honest companies do things differently.

Pg will you delete your account when BA delivers? Seriously how many companies will you need to be wrong about before you give up with the conspiracy theories?

Do we need to get your buddy biomech in here to tell you to calm the fuck down again? Seems he is the only one who knows where your off switch is located.

How do you like the parts where their sockpuppets and fanfois claim I have sockpuppets, and Black Arrow comes along long enough to delete my posts, then poof!, albeit Alex Sovu/Alex Berk did take the time to post twice most recently: Once, to quote a PM by me to him, and then provide a list of WTF promises.

The only saving grace is that now you can purchase miners and weed from Matt Carson's farm in Denver. Mhiust be nice to be able to farm two crops. Can't wait to see their new T-Shirts: Hashin' While You're Hashin'.

Now, we having Matt Carson vetting Black Arrow and Verisilicon who was vetted by DZ who was vetted by John K. who is MIA.

Hey, Matt, can you at least report back to the community here as to the quality of the weed available in the Denver area being that it was legalized Jan. 1, 2014, the same time you carefully packed up your hookah and moved there?

Not sure if I've even mentioned this before, but Rolla, MO, is relatively a small town, and the folks bend over backwards when you ask them questions over the phone to help you out.

Case in point, remember when Matt talked about upgrading his electrical units at not one, but two facilities in Rolla, MO? Well, it turns out that if Mr. Transparent didn't break any laws and was being truthful, a permit would have been pulled to do such, eh?

Yesterday, I made a call to the permit office there in Rolla, MO, and asked a few questions. The lady I spoke with was being as helpful as she can, but I had to talk with Scott, the only inspector in town that would know about this, seeing that all the permits she had on hand since last September were either for residential, too large commercial or industrial buildings.

I just got off the phone with Scott, and guess what? He's very familiar with those six buildings on Parkwood Ln, there in Rolla, MO, and confirmed that no such permits were pulled, and would love to know which building Matt Carson was in because he takes his position quite seriously.

He also laughed out loud when I asked him to confirm if there were really 150 similar buildings there in Rolla, MO, stating that there are only 6, otherwise it would have been him that would have inspected them, then asking me if I knew how small of a town Rolla is.

He didn't have much more to offer except to call his buddy West at Echo Star who rents one of the only six similar buildings there in Rolla. So I did.

Come to find out that West also confirms that there are only 6 of these building, otherwise he would love to move his business to another location in town, leasing from the same nice guy in a building exactly as he has now. By the way, Echo Star used to be at 937 Parkwood, but has moved to 945 Parkwood, something I was already aware of a few days ago, but he confirmed without me having to ask.

West also stated that all six buildings are owned by the same guy, not different ones as Matt Carson as stated, and he does lease month-on-month on occasions, even though he's been burned (no pun intended) before, but our Matt wouldn't do that, would you Matt? Be very, very, very careful when you answer that because I'm expecting a phone call shortly.

West didn't know any Matt Carson, but stated that of the six buildings, he knows which one was wired for Comcast last year, but since then that account has ended, not being able to provide me the name of the person the contract was in due to an NDA (my words here, not his). I didn't ask if the bill was paid in full once ceasing connection, assuming that it wasn't by the tone of his voice.

If Virisilicon is happy to release information about Black Arrow's contract with them, perhaps ask them about all the other contracts they have with other entities. I repeat, there is no fuckin' way that Virisilicon can release any information about Black Arrow without putting themsel ves in lawsuit territory. If they do, I'm sure every other entity dealing with Virisilicon would love to know about it.

Matt Carson is capable of ripping off his own mother, ain't that right, Matt? No need to answer that either, for I already know the answer.  


By bad! I guess 6 could equal ~150.

By bad, again! I mistake a hookah for a...



Bottom line, the reason Alex Sovu/Alex Berk keeps deleting my posts on his venerable thread is because...wait for it...he's made of the same cloth as his number one reseller, Matt Carson.

Somebody quote me before this is deleted, whereupon I'll then post in my other two Black Arrow threads.

Honestly, what's the point? Are you trying to prove Matt has never hosted miners in MO or CO?

Truth hurts, don't it?

Pls update your progress.

I have a batch 2 order, what is the expected delay on them ?

So the way I understand it is that if I haven't purchased mining power in batch 1, I'll basically get a temporary 0.10 discount and a cold glass of water ? I'm not sure your customers will be lining up for that discount ... or maybe that is what your aim is.

Anybody who has purchased Prospero X-1 in non-indistrual quantities would barely be able to make a return to cover the hardware by the time he gets it. That much is obvious even in the pinkest of predictions.

X-3 would probably be able to pay itself out easily, unless the dif goes totally bananas..

And for those unfortunate souls like me with an X-3 from batch 2, there is no hope ;(

Bobsag, please confirm that the extra 2 months and 10% discount is also available for people who bought from MinerSource, thanks

The $24 is for the 1.6gh version of the AntMiner (U1), since the 180gh (S1) version is/has been out of stock everywhere that sells it at 1.45 bitcoins. Again, I would love to know where to get it.
And I don't think comparing BA's offering to competitors is off topic. If people claim their products are uncompetitive, I think that is a perfectly acceptable topic for discussion on this thread.

Where on earth are you getting that an Ant is $24 a GH/s?
It currently costs 1.45 Btc which at $650 per bitcoin is about $1000,
so 1000/180 = $5.55 GH/s

Speaking of off topic and completely FUD posts...
