The sad part is that they probably will get some buyers who don't realize what a scam it is, just like the other bad companies.

20nm? Total scam, stay away from this.

Seriously, don't send money without some kind of proof what they have is real, that goes for any of these pages that pop up out of nowhere without nary a word from their leadership on these boards.

No imprint on the website. For German companies thats mandatory, no info about the do-port gmbh that i can find. I bet its scam.If someone wants to be sure, i can drive to them and check. Just make an attractive offer ;-)

they promise for 2014 Q1 an impressive mining rig that is going to deliver 3.3TH/s

What do you think about?

If they plan to ship in Q1/14, they already paid R&D costs. So basically they don't need to go the pre-order route.
They can just sell the units as in-stock items in Q1.

Unless of course they want to take your coins and disappear.

Just think about it. They "started" the company in 2012, developed bitcoin ASIC and registered their domain in Dec, 2013?

Why only 800 units? Who runs 2400 ASIC chips run? I would imagine the runs would be in multiples of 10K...

Scam. They don't even raise enough to fund their NRE if only 800 are available to pre-order.

Plus their chip is a photo of the KnC 28nm with the logo photoshopped from it.

Maybe they got some "friends" at whatever foundry KNC is using and plan to "borrow" a few wafers, surely a few wont be missed!

No they are just taking what little they know and are tweaking the script to make theirs sound enticing.

The page looks pretty because these scammers know what cash they could potentially pull in by blind fools with cash burning a hole in their pocket.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a seasoned serial scammer.

Modus operandi banks once a scammer has found his niche, they just work to perfect their system.

Patter may change a little but it's recognisable.

No company registration , no business. It's as simple as that, and we germans take these things very seriously.

Don't pre-order. Period.

You don't know that, the street view image is from 2009. Bitcoins didn't even exist when that image was taken.

we need more info
someone from germany can trip to company

No we don't. We have enough information to safely assume that this is a total SCAM.
I am from Germany, but I certainly won't waste my time taking a trip to a building where no such company resides.
It's a nursing home.

The problem here is that if they were to start to deliver in feb they already managed a tape-out and already paid for the NRE out of pocket for 20nm (what was it KNC mentioned? 10M usd+?)
