The OP has a valid point, last November I was in the market for some Bitfury boards. They were sold out on every site except Megabigpower who only had bare chips. Too much R&D for a full-time wage slave like me.

In my quest for Bitfuries I ended up at Black Arrow who like everybody else was sold out of their Bitfury solution.

Seeing that they were producing real hardware all-be-it with another companies chips and were offering their own ASIC based miners three months down the road I paid over $5 for the Prospero X3: 2Th/s @ 1W/Gh/s, shipping date: 24 February 2014.

A year later I have nothing and they're refusing all refunds, fucking scammers. I hate these Romanian clowns and their Russian sock puppet engineer. They never would have got me if it wasn't for their use of Bitfury chips.

ROFL ... this is the LOL of the day !
So because u bought a HP laptop from your local IT store, and they refuse to fix your laptop, its HP fault ?

Cool logic dude !

Cheesy

The logic here is they (Black Arrow) used Bitfury on their website as part of the bait to lure me into their pre-order scam. The OPs point here is that there are companies out there using Bitfury to flog their scams and I'm saying yes companies are scamming using their chips/brand.

In reality it didn't matter what company I chose back last November, they were all scams I was doomed no matter what. BFL, HashFast, Cointerra, AMT, VMC, KnC, etc, every one of them a scam.

Is my logic really flawed? Are you saying I'm a retard for trying to invest in Bitcoin? Is Bitfury (KGB?) who only makes chips for themselves behind the pre-order scam conspiracy because it was the NSA who invented SHA-256? Am I fucking high or just dumb?

Dumb

...but didn't actually hit the quote button

My 2cts: BitFury is fine (presuming they can launch their new chip and don't have to go for another round of investments) - the only thing that raises some eyebrows is how things are incorporated.. but then you need only look at Google, IKEA, Bausch+Lomb, and pretty much any other big company to realize they all set up little companies in other countries due to beneficial tax laws, employment laws, etc. and then move numbers about. So a B.V. registered in effectively virtual office space and no filings? Not all that strange. Doesn't help with transparency, I agree, but then... most of us don't even deal with them directly and the investors / large mining ops that do probably get all the access they need.

New to you maybe.

And your comment had nothing to do with what I posted. Gleb's comment that rammy2k2's tone brought BitFury down a notch is simply untrue.

Now, that TONE was 100% uncalled for. Your action just brought Bitfury down a notch.

Which, of course, is simply untrue. Thanks for trying though.

First name?

Only name?!?

Sorry, but that just does not seem to me to be a good way of signing as a "Head of Product Development" (of a 2 - or maybe even 1 - man show)...

It's a shame that people who registered less than a year ago don't seem to know about BitFury or punin. Their 55nm miners were comparable to other people's 28nm product in terms of efficiency.

The good thing is that because they are low key not many people will fall for BitFury scam sites.

Why the worry about the real Bitfury being legit? Of course they are. They are the dominant player in ASIC design and the biggest builder of bitcoin mining DCs in the world. And besides, they no longer build mining gear for retail sale. They're strictly on an industrial/corporate level. If you don't have millions to invest, they're not interested in dealing with you in any capacity.

I agree that bitfury are a legitimate company. I have dealt with them in the past and although they had a premium price they delivered on time and had good quality miners.

Well, you fucked up, bud! I[...]

I would still be vary careful dealing with this company;

[...] the user "punin" takes great care into his signature to mention he's 'Head of Product Development [of] Bitfury Holding B.V. [linking] www. bit fury .com but "forgets" to sign with his real name... All in all not really "reassuring".

[...]

FYI: Punin is his real name AFIK

First name?

Last name?

Only name?!?

Sorry, but that just does not seem to me to be a good way of signing as a "Head of Product Development" (of a 2 - or maybe even 1 - man show)...

I have my own company with a similar (holding) structure. Since I am "proud" of that (read: don't have anything to hide or "be afraid of") I sign my "official statements" like this:

Drs. Slobodan Bogovac MBA
Directeur Grootaandeelhouder (DGA)
Bogovac & Bogovac bv

dude, shut up, i dealed with bitfury years ago, they were as legit as u can get ... punin just posted a warning and u try to move the discussion someplace else ... mind your own business

You want to know what's funny. I was basically done with this thread seeing no reason for me to be here... That is until you showed up and posted, then all kinds of red flags rose, so I started me a diggin'.
