All,

Thanks for all of the entries. We have to agree we should have been more specific, and maybe slogan was the wrong choice of word. The phrase will be on the controller board on each device. It is not a slogan for the company but our current product range.  We would like the phrase to remain Bitcoin related, as Mars' 'Bitcoin makes the world go around' was a tribute to the song 'Money makes the world to round' by Liza Minneli' . Obviously with our chosen device names the space themes are equally suitable. Anything combining the two will also be considered but don't let that limit your imagination. Phrases that stand out as creative and make us smile will be considered. We would like to make the 'coining' of a phrase by our customers a theme amongst all our future products. Bad pun, we know, could not resist.

Please note, we are honestly not at all interested in belittling our competitors with phrases on our boards, our engineering will speak for itself.

We always aim to under-promise and over deliver. This is and always will be a reoccurring theme as well, and agreed as a company slogan that sits well with us.

Competition ends in at 5.30pm local time (CET) tomorrow. We are aware of the other thread and will consider entries from both.  Good luck everyone, 'stellar' efforts so far.

Thanks,

KnCMiner Team.

I have nothing against any ASIC company other than maybe BFL..  Just trying to educate the Dumb..

Oh and they better not come to Texas as I guarantee we Hunt even BIGGER Trolls here boy.

Competition time!

We have a new challenge for you. We require a slogan for our controller board and we have 48 hours to make up our minds. You may remember we made a couple of minor mishaps with our Mars board. On our original Mars PCBs we printed: Bitcoins make the world go around! (Grammer is not our area of expertise, chip design is). So we have chosen to open this part of the design process to those following us on this forum. This is your chance to be immortalised in Bitcoin tech history. Please design the phrase you wish to see. There is still a space for one sentence on our boards. The 48 hours start now. Competition ends at 5.30pm (local time). We will decide the winning entrant which will then be seen on all our hardware; Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury.

Thanks,

KnCMiner team.

I still haven't figured out what the hell that means...or more importantly why it's here? We don't care that you doubt KnC and you already told us several times that you weren't buying one so what is your point? We should all cancel because you think so?
Or perhaps you intended a positive post and forgot to include the details of the company offering rigs that will make us rich for years to come guaranteed?

Don't go to Norway, they have a guy hunting huge trolls.

Can you hear me yet?

ASICMiner Blade Prices Reduced 65% After Shares Crash

"There are several factors that influenced this price cut. The network hash rate has continued to increase exponentially as companies bring their ASIC Mining power online. The difficulty has increased from 37 million when these were first announced to over 66 million currently, reducing customer’s return by 78% without even factoring future difficulty increases."


LOL I would not buy a KNC for Oct even if KNC cut their price by 65%.. Not worth it and will not make but $300 to $900 ROI over the next year after the Break Even..  If that much..



You guys have still not figured out that you are mining for the ASIC compines and paying them what you mine for the price of you ASIC..  


Mind Blown..

I have a couple questions regarding the mining pool you plan to offer and the options to configure different mining pools for the hosted machine,

a) When do you plan to release specifications for your mining pool? I'm most interested in knowing:
 
- What reward system do you plan to implement? (PPS, PPLNS, DGM, other?)
- Would you distribute transaction fees?
- Would you allow merged mining of Namecoins?
- What person or company will manage the mining pool?
 
b) Regarding the use of other pools with the hosted jupiter:
 
- Would you allow specifying a backup pool in case the main pool goes down?

Hello Felipe,
  
At the moment the KnC pool will be PPS.
 
You will be able to set a threshold in your account as to when you would like your bitcoins to be transferred to your wallet. For example, you can set the threshold at 0.5 BTC, so that every time you have mined 0.5 BTC this will be transferred automatically to your wallet. The 1.5% pool fee will be deducted prior to each transfer.
 
At the moment we will not allow merged mining, but this is something we are looking into.
 
KnCMiner will be managing the pool.
 
There will be an option to select a backup pool.

Transaction fees earned within the pool will be put back into the pool for the participants.
Regards,
Liam

Sorry the inner child couldn't resist since we where on the planetary theme -

"Uranus is next..."

This thread is now sucking.  Where's the power supply and command line thread?

I hope that the 1-500 Costumers get a "place" there befor all others!!

1GH today > 2GH a month from now.  See difficulty.  
Assuming KNC ships on spec & as promised -- a first in the ASIC arena.
But hey, you might get lucky.

Yes, refund your ~$17/GH and spend ~$40/GH with minimum of 4x the power consumption

WRONG THREAD.

To the difficulty and beyond! :-P
