Topic: [GB]Terraminer IV #5, Coinsortium - page 14. (Read 62176 times)

he hasn't been paying out any one, i just know he is Scamming US but NO one in the GB want to believe it! I believe we can file a lawsuit against him I have been gathering info and seeking some legal counsel.

I believe it could make the BTCNews, I talked to coindesk.com and they said they will look into it, especially if we end up having to sue this guy

Soniq has over 50k worth of mining equipment and has NOT been paying off any of the GBs. This guy is worst than Butterfly Labs, I actually owe Butterfly Labs and Josh an apologia for bashing them for NOT delivering on TIME BUT at less they deliver and are not running away!
 

I'm still wondering where it said sonic gets to take out hosting payment first before making out any payouts...hmm must be nice getting 2.5% off the top then taking the rest at start when the btc is rolling in now...vs later when diff rate jumped upto 10bil yay oh then he'll decide to sell'em so we all have no chance ROI...FML wish i never bought into this GB...oh not to mention the stellar communication we have been getting on updates and things lol...shit man he has a pretty sweet deal...start a gb, ppl pay, get units in DC..boom do nothing n act busy oh make a messed up spread sheet once in a while to keep everyone guessing if their getting paid fair or not wish i thought of this

looking into his other knc gb...even if we did get a payout...i doubt he'd send it...everything sonic is touching is turning into one giant cluster fuck...ignores everyones questions/suggestions and just does whatever the hell he wants...cause yep we all don't know a thing about him...hmm...wonder if he is just gona pull a basic mining n disappear...i smell a bitbet coming up

I am finding this latest update seems to be a slight improvement in hashrate, from 1.55 TH to 1.6TH

New firmware!
You can find Firmware 0.6.48 here http://cointerra.com/firmware-downloads
Will post my findings once I get a chance to try it

So on Tuesday Soniq posted some info on the Skype group which has not made it to this thread as of yet.  I was just added to the group today and figured I would share.

Soniq - "trying to trouble shoot terraminers  and have changed Terraminer #1 and #2 to http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1D9Pc6nehJAEPr4ENqss1cuokSFiTDLiE8 and http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/17nAFjXqqy7dWgEDXchpNsBEFkFJp8qR7M respectivly"

therefore as i see it here is the updated list of miners on eligius:

Terraminer#1 - http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1D9Pc6nehJAEPr4ENqss1cuokSFiTDLiE8
Terraminer#2 - http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/17nAFjXqqy7dWgEDXchpNsBEFkFJp8qR7M
Terraminer#3 - http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/14fC3MDT4q6sLhQNUSHmUTMWW1AEvtvWjj
Terraminer#4 - http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1DN968X3M3ENZYFY62fn3jPtXqoUwhb4tv

As far as i can tell all 4 miners are up and running at the full 1.6ish th/s at the moment. 

I am in this groupbuy and I am not in any skype group, and no news....

Soniq, please add me to the skype group or any platform for news.

and you know I bought my shares from another buyer, did you change my wallet ID ?
if not I can not take any payment.

please confirm my wallet ID for my 7 shares...

Soniq, Can we hire someone to do escrow for the admin rights over the miners.  You been leaving these address mining at half speed for a week that's $420 lost per miner.  Even if we had to hire someone $100 a month to watch over these things it would be much better than what you have accomplished.  I would also vote that someone would be able to login to the web gui and verify that your not splitting the address's and that indeed all four units are mining half speed at the fault of cointerra's manufacturing. 
There is reason to question your story since other group buys seem to be working out fine and mining away at 1.62 TH. 
Just to renew your credibility please consider allowing someone else to have access over the web interface for verification.
I'm willing to do it and have high credibility from my otc rating.  But if there is someone else that has a greater rating (which is likely the case) that part of this group buy, then please come forward and maybe Soniq would be willing to allow this option to verify.

I don't think this is too wild of a idea and can clear up other people concerns about weather or not your story is true.  Even just allowing someone to login to one mine for verification.  Then quickly changing the password afterwards could diffidently help clear up some of are concerns.

If your not willing to assist in this and continue to allow the miners to mine at half speed.  Then I see no reason the group should be paying you any type of admin cost.

  

Okay guys, help me out. Maybe it's because I'm from germany and my english is not the best, but I have no idea where soniq tried to "pull that card on us".

@LittleD We're all grown ups I hope and it really should be possible that we all behave like that. Thx

If you truly need HELP with the miners I know of someone that will help you out. Please communicate and let us know.?

Soniq,
are you seriously pulling that card on US! "someone has hacked the miners via SSH access" wow WTWhat! Soniq you need help, sorry to say but it sound like you DONT know what your doing or YOU KNOW exactly what YOUR doing, which is SCAMMING US WOW!

I have emails to [email protected] that have not received responses for over 6 days, and voicemails that have never been responded too. Isend a new voicemail or email almost everyday. 

I have been talking with megaminer on Cointerra forum as he is unofficial support and he told me to factory reset all the miners and report back.  I have factory reset all the miners but still same result.

 I dont think PSU are bad as all LED lights are green.

What I do think happened is someone has hacked the miners via SSH access and that what factory reset was supposed to fix. But appears the Beaglebones are corrupted. I have sent another email and voicemail to Cointerra again today for a firmware flash.

Hello Soniq, some other managers of Cointerra GB had the same problems, see Ultibit , but after the last update of the hardware They claim to have solved ... surely you've already done, but You can confirm that you update?
I await with impatience your news ... thanks

" Update of 11/03/2014 - Current hashing power after firmware update "

Soniq, do you think you can ask them to send extra PSUs?

I have a bad feeling for the remaining and working PSUs...

Soniq, I emailed [email protected] regarding my unit and got a response almost immediately.  They automatically create a ticket and follow up.

I had the same issue, it was working at half capacity.  The problem in my case was one of the power supplies was defective, take a look and see if you have the same issue:


You can see the LED is yellow on the top unit.  

They were able to diagnose the issue online and send me a new power supply, which I literally pulled out the old one, and plugged in the new one, and everything was fine.
If you would like to try this, you can do the following.

1) First remove the 3 screws holding in the metal cover , Unplug the unit
2) Wait 3 minutes (this is very important, make sure you do this, otherwise the PSU will go nuts when you unplug it)
3) press the little grey tab in and pull STRAIGHT out, and slowly
4) you can do the same with the other, and then put them back in (i.e swap the PSUs)

Any way, this is exactly what they asked me to do, which caused the other miner (miner 2 I believe) to start functioning whereas originally miner 1 was functioning. After this they sent me a new PSU overnight express, received 1 day later in Canada

Unfortunately the unit runs really slow, 1.55TH/sec on average, but ah well.   Hopefully a firmware update will improve that

Hi!
You have Skype? How can with you connected?

Cointerra has really screwed us - each miner  owes approx.  : -4 BTC and is only hashing at about 1 TH/s this means about 5 – 6 weeks to pay for hosting + duties. Hopefully there is some sort of fix for this junk hardware and hash at the promised 2 TH/s

Soniq,
Thank you for reply BUT we need to sort out some issues with the lack of communication
We the share holders would personally like to know your real Name, address and what side of the bed you sleep in??? I know this is probably not possible but we (share holders) need some one that WE trust to verify your Personal ID
Soniq we need to come up with some sort of agreement Please soniq take this to consideration and let the share holders vote on these issues !

Share Holders Please vote on these issue and if you have or know of some one we can all trust as a mediator/escrow/admin for OUR GroupBuys, let your voice be heard !


Thank you

I'm sorry this is really hard to believe this is happening with all 4 units.

Boot the units with stepping 1 already enabled and bump stepping up every 10 minutes.

Sorry about the lack of time spent on forum. limited access to my home computer, so I have been posting all updates on Skype group

Terraminer#1, 2, ,3 and 4 have been delivered and are hashing at

I have given each miner a separate address to avoid issues I had with previous GB separating income for each miner.

As you can see from above all the miners seem to be having issues except fpr #3. But it appears ad if it is starting to lose half hshing power. I have been posting all my support problems with Cointerra on The Skype Group as well, so far no response at all from Cointerra and getting an unofficial response from megaminer on Cointerra forum. Have tried calling Cointerra, sending emails and phoning them. No response, phone lines are completely  down last time I tried.

I have listed all the things I have tried to correct hashing performance in Skype group as well. power cycling, upgrading- downgrading firm ware,  power stepping, restarting Cgminer  nothing working so far

No dividend payments have been made yet as there is approx 3.3 BTC generated total  to date. The hosting payment which I made in full for 6 months hosting (17.6 BTC) needs to paid,  and approx $1300 in duties paid upon delivery of the miners needs to be paid before any payments are made.

Link to threads at Cointerrra forum http://forum.cointerra.com/threads/terraminer-hashing-at-half-capacity.539/

Have not received an official response from Cointerra from any of my emails or voicemail

Will update if  I learn or hear anything

crashoveride54902,
 yes i just saw that
