Hmm. Th article in Bitcoinist about the Foxminers scam has gone a-missing... http://bitcoinist.com/foxminers-interview-dual-scam/

Did anyone grab a Wayback of the page?

edit: damn it. Just looked and not archived. Crap.
Grabbing ones of TheMerkle articles before they possibly disappear as well.

To close out the night and make it easier for new eyes to get the gist of this thread right from the top of it, I tweaked my post #2. It now has some of the most irrefutable points immediately there and easy to catch.

No, just usually don't care about ads. Love that GIF site tho bookmarked and gif saved.
Damn -- back feeling twitchy again so time hit a roach Nice having my MM Green card

You missed the THC Lab Cafe.

Oh that is just hilarious
And the phone battery life will be just how many minutes? Even plugged into a good charger say, 2.1A, that gives 10.5w of power. Barely enough to run a single 2Pac stick from Sidehack @15GHs. Of course the phone itself will want some of that power as well.

Crap. There goes Physics getting in the way again...

Bitcoinist has joined the ranks of folks in screamin' SCAM! http://bitcoinist.com/foxminers-interview-dual-scam/

Per the article:
"An old lady called Brenda sent us an email and explain to us how she is able to create ASIC which can mine 2 algorithms at choice"

So now the person(s) behind this are now trying to shift blame to her, the only visible person so far....

Hey, Fuzzy, I just noticed that you still have Zipkin's link in your sig where he was goin' to burn down my house and kill everybody in it. HAHAHA & Chuckles

***  Foxminers LLC If someone buys this miner without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***

Thought that might be the case. I removed reference to being part of Foxminers

Small but important language lesson:
"I" or "me" = the person talking. That is why easy to assume you were part of Foxminers.

You wanted to use the word "they" which = different person/company

Also, do not immediately defend a product without reading WHY it is called a scam. Discussion of that is over and does not need to be repeated. The first 4 pages provide absolute proof. Read them, then post an opinion.

This thread is now in Busting mode against them.

Fuck the subject matter! Call FoxMiners number and listen to the voicemail, introducing themselves as UfoMiners.

That, and why would FoxMiners have UfoMiners pics on its servers?

There is no 3865 Mulberry Lane in Miami, FL.

I'm not a foxminer, nor will I be!!!!
I have expressed my mind no more.
Your wise speech is "valued"

edit: @NotFuzzyWarm I do not know English well, and I can write badly enough

***  Foxminers LLC If someone buys this miner without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***

For a start, aside from the very obvious plagiarism of SFARADS SF3301 data sheet dated Feb 11 2015 there is the issue of no one EVER seeing that equipment in real life. Not seen at trade shows, no reputable people giving reviews, no evidence from pools showing SUSTAINED hash rate at real-world difficulties, etc.

Just as with Baikal, eBang, Hotmine and Panda, folks here will be more than happy to retract SCAM statements and in fact endorse the product WHEN THEY PROVE THEIR CLAIMS.

edit: @ jimbo, then why did you say "but why do everybody accuse me of being a scammer"?
edit edit: removed associations between jimbo and Foxminers. Translation error

Here on this front is a "national sport!" To mark everything that is new for fraud.
Many things that were labeled as frauds were true ... eg, Baikal miners and the like.
Do not let all vendors hang in one sack1
I know I can find a cheat, but why do everybody accuse me of being a scammer

***  Foxminers LLC If someone buys this miner without a well-known and trusted Forum User 1st getting one for doing a review and posting it here then well, you have been warned ***

Love the last 2 lines in the "interview":

And how did Panda, not to mention eBang and Hotmine resolve peoples suspicions? They accepted known reputable peoples offers to do a review of the equipment plus started their campaigns by demonstrating the gear at tradeshows. Ya know? Real hands-on proof.

As a business plan, blitzing the media without a single shred of physical evidence of their Miraculous Mining gear ever existing (much less being possible with foreseeable tech looking out a few years) is just plain stupid -- or of course the blatant proof of a scam in-progress.
