Maybe this is not a ASIC in the sence that we placed every single transistor on our own but we assembled something that is definitely specialized on scrypt mining with useable success, so this can't be called a FGPA either.

Basic VLSI and ASIC knowledge test failed.  To pull off a successful scam of this type, you first need to learn what ASIC means, then go back and re-read your first post.  First post clearly demonstrates a lack of knowledge in the relevant field.  You're bordering on not knowing what an FPGA is either.  Spend some time on Wikipedia reading the ASIC and FPGA articles before posting the next scam attempt.

This is actually a less proficient scam fail than even the scrypt FPGA investment solicitation by Nova! a few weeks back.  Check the first post, then skip ahead to the start of the 3rd page where I called BS and the OP started digging himself into a hole real quick until his scam finally melted down:

You guys know this person is probably nigerian right?

lol unless you are some kind of genius, $30k won't be enough to fund a LTC ASIC.

Would $30k even be enough to design an ASIC prototype, let alone build one?  Doesn't sound like it would even be enough to get people working on a project like this full-time, let alone buy any other resources.  And if it's designed and built, what do you need donations for?  Show a product and get a VC interested.

But hey what do I know.  I'm sure OP has got it all figured out.  I mean, he was outsmarted by a Chinese guy.. you gotta be really clever for them to even bother trying to scam you.

we designed and built an ASIC prototype for litecoin-mining but because of a thievery we need funding to proceed.

Sounds legit.

What's our problem:
We are absolutely broke! Just two weeks ago we were four people. In March we found a chinese exchange student who seemed to be a very good programmer and invited him to join our project.
Lately he suddenly disappeared and took all our coin money which was around 100BTC and 7000LTC!!!
It turned out to be impossible to track him down because apparently he actually never was an exchange student and/or gave us a wrong name.


How did he end up taking all your coins? LOL... He took off with over $11000?? That sucks.

you forgot to factor in the LTC.  so that person stole close to 250BTC at current rates.  if it were me i'd be posting his pic in this forum asking if anyone has seen him...

BFL knows how to do this, you can get them to help you

or maybe they'll buy you out?

 Grin
you stolen my reply to this fantastic opportunity thread.

They always starting that way:

1 kg Gold bar for everyone for FREE!!!

...but we just need donations to buy wheelbarrow we deliver it to you!

How is it that all these guys say they have been working on these devices for months but they have fewer community posts than me. I just got interested two months ago.
How stupid they are for thinking how stupid we are.

Why would one want an LTC Asic? LTC isn't worth that much, and you'd just drive the diff up so fast and high, you'd kill it off...I mean, LTC is already barely more profitable than BTC, at its current diff

I'm not sure I want ASICs for scrypt coins.  I'm happy building GPU rigs.  Unless the price is right and they are very readily available.
