Some things that concern me.
Before KNCminer have shipped a single product they have:
- Discontinued the Mars product line.
- Disconnected the Mercury product line.
- Reduced their prices for future batches, thus people waiting for delivery at the old price must feel ripped off to know they have that much profit margin to play with.

That is the way to post concerns!  Good Man

1. Mars was not going to be profitable, so they did us a favor there...

2.  Mercury is discontinued because they are now too small for future investment... and not cost-effective to build & sell anymore...yet another favor (not to mention Mercury is what invited so many children to the portfolio)

3. Reducing the price on future batches is a good thing, and people at the old price don't feel ripped at all because there is an entire month between receiving an October Jupiter, and an  Nov one.
If they did, there's nothing stopping them from cancelling their october order for a november one either.
Some of us would gladly snag up any october cancellations!

I see sound business decisions by KNC on all counts.

Reading some of these posts I can't help but think this to myself:



For everyone demanding photos of the chips, Here's the anticipated photo of chips:



Now can all of the anxiety-stricken folks just chill out? lol Jeez. Seriously.

Best way to solve your problem: Decide that on X day (say.. 15Sep or 1Oct) if it hasn't shipped, you will request a refund. Then, you will not worry any longer, and you'll have your money back. The rest of us will be happy because you've STFU, and it'll be more hashing power for us to buy back.

Everyone wins!



Those are crisps..you eat fish with chips Wink

Xialla   ...  At first I was upset about your recent comments, but now I realize you are simply mentally or emotionally challenged over KNC's delivery dates, and are taking it out on us. I'm actually proud to be a member of the "KNC fan club", thank you for that BTW. Nothing has changed since the beginning, except your attitude toward fellow customers and KNC. If you can't live with your investment decisions, then stop investing; simple as that. We are not at fault for your misgivings; and YES, we shall indeed see in just a couple short weeks. Until then, whining & hurling insults isn't going to help anyone. My kid went through that phase too. I can't help but thinking you must be a teen? It's time to "Man up" and accept your decisions as your own, and stop spreading F.ear, U.ncertainty, and D.oubt.  FUD; because that's EXACTLY what you're doing, and that's known as "Trolling" in case you were unaware. It would be different if you had legit concerns, but since KNC is on track with all deliveries, I don't see anything in your recent posts worth legitimate concern. It all comes across as psychobabble & childlike gibberish.

I think they won't be on time,but as long as they give updates on where they are in the process I think is what some are complaining about.It is a tough call but just as long as we're still within the timeline we should be patient.I also think KNC should give an update on where the ASIC chips are since silence is not a good thing.

I'm still accused of being fanboy? I thought pretty much everything I had claimed, had now been proven correct, or was it that I was actually being honest the entire time?

Xialla, I've had no beef with you, to be fair though you were pretty cool, but recently you're being a prick.

From what I understand about his/her situation is that they missed the bus for Day 1/2 and then purchased a late unit, got cold feet, refunded their unit, and are now taking out their sorrow on the forums.

no, all of my miners are scheduled for first day of shipping and I don't refund anything:


sometimes is so difference between you understanding and real situation.)

I'm pissed, because can't believe, that KNC will fulfill their promise..we will see in 2 weeks™ who was right.

That's just a printed out photo of the PCB

Actually. You're right. LOL

Zoomed in and yeah it does kinda look floppy. Oh well I assumed it was the PCB from far away.

Is someone else wondering for what reason they have a need for your date of birth ?

Date of birth is required for forums due to COPPA laws.

Asking questions before investing is prudent.
Ask the right people though, that would be KNC not random internet strangers.

None of us know any secret info....the best thing you could do to get those questions answered is to email them or pick up the phone.
All the info we have has been discussed here ad nauseum.

If you aren't comfortable don't invest, it's really that simple.
If you invested already and you are now shitting your pants, keep it to yourself or ask for a refund.

We don't give a care if you disagree that KNC hardware is worth investing in.  
We don't care if you are second guessing your purchase, we aren't here to hold your hand.


Fuck these kids have a lot to learn about business...and acting like grown ups.
I can't imagine what it will be like here by the end of September.
