Domain Age:    0 years and 10 days
Website IP:    213.239.231.138
Hosting Country:    Germany

Here's the math:

$10 for domain
$3 for domain whois privacy

Owner probably own a VPS/dedicated server so hosting is free...

and

$50 for website design

$100 for effort researching bitcoin history/data so their info is somehow 'a little' accurate.

and boom u got http://dragon-asic.com

nowww....

bitcoin is getting lots of attention in media and investors who does not know what it really is... (especially computer illiterate people will easily fall into this)


Let's just say 1 person buy per month from dragon asic... even the cheapest "product" they have costs 20btc

at current rate of btc...

20btc = $3880


All money spent into creating that dragon site has been paid... + interest...

According to what they now show "in stock," this vaporware is flying off the shelves. And the 92 Gh/s unit (by far the worst value) is "selling" the best. Either these inventory numbers are totally fabricated, or some really stupid people are buying (hopefully the former).

Everything with "Dragon" in their names are FAKE....

Dragon car, Dragon phone, Dragon sushi..... ALL fake.

Could have settled for " Tiger" but no.... it gotta be "Dragon"

Think about it...costs 5x as much to get 2x the Gh.

No, you aren't getting it. The pricing structure makes no sense. They are charging 5x as much for the larger 92 Gh/s unit which only has 2x the hashing power. Instead of paying 100 BTC for the 92 Gh/s unit, you could buy 5x 45 Gh/s units and have 225 Gh/s. This is further evidence that it is a complete scam, but if you think it is a great deal, go for it and let us know how it turns out (but I don't advise it).

Ahhh yes... you are comparing the two models they are offering. My bad... thought you were comparing theirs to BFL. Gotcha.

I'm not pre-paying for any mining ASIC right now. I'm happy with my ~20% return on my money in the last 3 days.

Lol this is so retarded: 45GH 20 BTC and 92GH 100 BTC... mmm yeah!

Think about it...costs 5x as much to get 2x the Gh.

Ummm... tell me people wouldn't pay me $2,600 (currently 20 BTC) if I said I had 1 or 100 ASICs ready to ship that mine 45GH/s.

Really?! you think that's too much?

Let's do some math using http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ with the following spec's...

Difficulty (currently 6.6M): 20,000,000
Bitcoins/block: 25
USD/BTC (currently $130.00): $90.00
Electricity: $0.15 / kW
Power Usage: 100W
Time to mine: 30 days

At the end of 30 days you would have paid for the ASIC in full and still have $763.24 and be on your way to mining $112.80 per day after electricity costs.

YOUR TURN...  Roll Eyes

Uhhh why is that retarded... If they were real that is a GREAT price. $2,500 for a 45GH/s tha you can have in your hands in 3-5 days is better than a pre-order of an ASIC on eBay that you have no recourse if they don't deliver and those are selling for $3,000-$5,000 for 30GH/s....

"Drivers are available during software update.
To update drivers choose Update in Help menu.
Drivers for the Dragon-2 ASIC are installed autamatically as you plug it to the computer.
Contact support if you have any question."

 Grin

One of my guess: They have large amount of ASIC order from BFL and now they are making a huge housing to hold several singles and do a re-branding

Affiliate programs do not make something a scam. The scammyness of this site itself makes it a scam.

Their pricing structure makes absolutely no sense. For the price of one 92 Gh/s unit you can buy 5 45 Gh/s units (for a total of 225 Gh/s). But for vaporware, I guess your pricing structure is based more around what you hope you can sucker people into.

By December we built and sold twenty Dragon 24 GH/s.
If they are legit where are those im asking ?

Yeah, they made it so obvious this was a scam with that statement. If someone had received a 24Gh ASIC in December, they would have shown it off on these forums already.  Wink

Yes, this scammer put a lot of effort into trying to look legit.

"By December we built and sold twenty Dragon 24 GH/s." LOL- NO WAY ASICs were being sold in December without the community hearing anything about it.

Also, a quick google of their company "Juswa" along with their names brings up almost nothing. If they actually did start a succesful company in 2008 named Juswa, there would be some record of it on the internet...
