For people who still think it's a scam :

- no batch 2 yet on the website (which would be clear that it's a scam)
- dwarfminer team still responding on the forum (which there is no point of if it was a scam and the orders are completed so they could absolutely already have run with the money)

I'm just saying that those two points, in particular the last one give a good indication that it might not be a scam

Personnaly, if I was running such a scam I would have already left with the money. Wouldn't you ?

If this card works as intended, they will sell like hot cake on batch2 and they will make even much more money. They probably have a 50% margin on BOM and second batch will be full price so more than $200 of benefit per card for a batch of 25000 => $5 millions profit without even to have to set up a mining farm and taking the risk of a crypto bear market.

In the gold rush the people who were making money were the pickaxe vendors


Why running so soon?
People get more trust so they buy more.
Scammers getting more money.
And your 2 points are worthless, like anyone can reply to a comment and change the website for the salary they're getting.

Did they show a picture of a magic pickaxe that makes twice as much gold as a regular pickaxe, and did they promise to deliver from China in three weeks? Grin

I have talked with enough Nigerian scammers to realise that this is a scam. On the first page I wrote that the Monero logo on the board is a big giveaway of this scam. What is the use of that Monero logo ? In this age when competition is so high manufacturers have to cut corners anywhere they can. They will not waste a single drop of paint if it's not needed. Just look at Antminer, they are very plain and ugly because of an industrial design but they deliver what they promise without any gimmicks. That Monero logo was the bait that the buyers took. This is also making me wonder about the ONLY guy who gave merits to OP and he is also into selling some stuff.

--When you "calculate" your risk based on the words of some anonymous dude/gal on an internet forum - that's not risk, that's charity.
All here are "some anonymous dude". You too.

I'm not selling anything. And there are plenty of sellers here who are well-known IRL and/or can show something beyond mere words. If you're a legitimate vendor your behavior is baffling to say the least.

Hello everybody! Because orders continue to arrive by e-mail, we will temporarily hide our videos on youtube. If you have not made a copy yet, you have this chance Wink


--I didn't think they could get boards soldered up so fast! Will people have to run an app to load to board (like other FPGA's) or are they preconfigured and you just add power+network+vga?
Our partner in China will download firmware and pack products to boxes. From the factory we will receive boards in bags.

--if you use them (it{the thing}) for yourself... why the heck the network speed continue to drop down? no clue of 5k fpga working Cheesy
Sometimes the stupidity of people amazes me.

--I think at the end that the seller will laugh at all of the people who bought it.
we refused to buy many people for various reasons - delivery problems, payment problems. For large orders, we took only the percentage of prepayment. There were people who bought 250 pieces, and we took only a few percent of the prepayment. Although they were willing to pay 50% or more. If we wanted to laugh, we would take everything. Is not it?

I myself have taken a calculated risk and purchased this...

Risk is calculated by what you could afford to possibly lose, in relation to how much you have in total. Being a fulltime forex trader has blessed me so that 4000usd is a 'small' risk, let alone 400....so i assure you it is calculated risk mate. The price to pay either way. What you are referring to is judgement bro.

There seems to be some hostility and anger in this group. The fear is very much present here.

Fear = No risk/Play it safe = Smart = Boring/No emotional attachment = No possibilitiy of pleasure or pain
No Fear = Take risk/Experiment = Not Smart = Exciting/Emotionally attached = Possibiblity of pleasure or pain

Human beings fall into 1 of 2 of these categories. Regardless of industry there will always be a place for innovation, and along with it will always come the scammers.  I myself have taken a calculated risk and purchased this...I am sure thousands of others did for all these units to sell out.

And there is stupidity. You can take the risk for this but it's a high risk with low chance it is legit. And I must say, $400 is alot of money if you just 'lost' it to a scammer.
Quick some things: Too good to be true (price for performance), sellers information is very limited about anything related to the product or for the devs, they use different countries for payments, not willing to send it to a trusted person.

I think at the end that the seller will laugh at all of the people who bought it.

If this turns out to be real and i did the smart thing by not buying, I'm going to be so mad.
But if this turns out to not be real, trust me people like me who purchased a few will be madder (yes it's a word :p ) but I will blame only myself

I support people's right to be stupid with their money.  But this attitude that the people who are calling attention to all the red flags are self-righteous or annoying or otherwise just bothersome is something I will never understand.  Some of the people who willingly gave over their life savings to Josh Garza were also ardent supporters of him and took every opportunity to complain about people calling attention to the red flags there, and yet in the end they were scammed out of their money.  Some of the very same people posting in this thread calling attention to all the red flags here were posting back then calling attention to the red flags in that scam, and yet here we are, people acting annoyed at the very people who are trying to warn them.

Hey guys I really hope that you will ship.

Not to me, as I ordered with Paypal and you haven't accepted it.
But to all the people that sent you crypto or wire transfer.

Just to have those Legendary and very Merit people shut up in this thread.

And to see all their Vegas mining something else rather than CN will be priceless.

I already reserve 2 at the new price from batch 2, paypal or crypto
