I have some concern about your firmware that should have some answers to. The big questions are ….
How much control do you have over the miners with your firmware?
If the miner cant reach your callback server does it still stop the miner from starting?
You have the ability to change dev mode on the fly as well as some other features so I am sure you have the ability to do other things with the miner.
What features are implemented that the user does not know about yet that could take control of the miner or its settings.
We know you are collecting data from the miners or you wouldn't be able to look at your logs and see what is going on.
What information are you gathering from the miners during the callbacks?
Lastly it was nice of you to reduce the dev fee but with my rate here at home that is about 3.50 a day going to you, making it over 100 a month going to you, but you were willing to sell the license for 1 zec. Don't you think the dev fee is still a little high since you were willing to sell a license for 1 zec. When you got everyone hooked on your firmware you said you were gonna offer a license then once you seen the volume of people you decided to go dev mode only right now. So if you have a 1000 miners with your fw you are making about 3000+ dollars a day. Don't you think reducing the dev fee to 1 or 1.5% is a little more fair, I realize you need to recover the cost of ida and a z9 but at this rate you have recovered that cost in a few days and even the best coders don't make 20k a week for their work.
Chipless, thank you for voicing your concerns. Please use your own firmware and not mine. If you would like to buy a license, the price is one beeeelioon dollars. Special, just for you. Also, all other firmware features are designed to spy on your toaster. Not everyone else’s, just yours.
The rest of your math is just wrong, again, by a lot.
