Disappointed. It was my understanding that Plan B cloud hashing was to compensate for any delay in delivery.

When they announced the 2-for-1 second Neppy in August they gave the impression that it was in addition to, not a replacement of, Plan B. Seemed to me that they made the 2-for-1 offer to compete with Spond who were selling their August SP30 Group Buy at that time... to reduce the number of Neppy refunds.

I was pretty happy with Plan B, until now (apart from the fact that they promised it in "early June" for CA batch, and it won't start until 23 June). Now, why would I trade a few weeks (i.e. hopefully they ship soon) of cloud hashing for an entire Neptune im August?


Jeezes dudes, they are even worse than I thought.

Exactly!
I really don´t understand why they are doing this to us.
Don´t they want to have happy customers?

and tomorrow is holiday:

so, if I´m too late now to change back because they started shipping and tomorrow is holiday, then on monday my status Paid will be changed into shipping and so I won´t get a single day hashing and no second neppy.
Checkmated! Fuck!

You got a tracking number?  What number was your order?



Yes: 111xx



Nice.  My first order is 118xx and my other orders are 4 hours later.  Hopefully they all ship out this week.

Mine is 115xx, I'll post here when it ships.

I HAVE A FIRST DAY ORDER AND GOT FUCKED UP FOR ACCEPTING THE HASH WHILE YOU WAIT.

I ACTUALLY CALLED THEM TO CONFIRM THAT MY SECOND NEPTUNE HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE OFFER.

FUCK!!!

THE SAY IT CANT BE REVERSED!!!!

There is no way this is true. Call again. I refuse to believe it.

I just called but got the answering machine. I wrote an email to be opted out of the planB program.

I just hope to get the same results as @Kneedle.

I'll call back again tomorrow to be sure.

That was almost a major blunder....

 Hi,

If you choose Hash while you wait, you will not be eligible for bonus miner.
As per your request, we changed your choice to Wait for Neptune.
Hash while you wait will not be activated for you.

It should just be a single box. If you go on their site they outline what the setup and power consumption is. The link is posted a few pages back from here.

***********************************************************************

I'm betting there will be extra ports on the controller box in which they will sell "Upgrade" boxes/cards later for.

are those PSU's for the Neptunes?

No they're the five ASIC boxes.  Those things plus a controller and a pile of PSUs are the "neptune".

I really don't get this company, how could they change the design of the final products at the last moment, without even telling the customers, they showed a single box when they did the pre-sale and now you have 5 boxes, why didn't they just stick with the 28nm and make a bunch of single miners, they just could have hired bitmain to do the final product, looks like the upcoming Antminer S1 will be similar looking.


I agree, bait and switch. I'm pretty sure they said it would be a similar form factor to the Jupiter's.

They could have used the same 28nm chip and undervolt them, and it would have been out 5 months ago, when difficulty was 1.5 Billion

They probably are boxing up the Neptunes, hashrate dropped 7PH


nice of them to get a few BTC out of the rigs before they ship though, eh?

Well they need to stress test hardware , dont they ? Cheesy

Im thinking of getting that Mini titan, i have a friend in Sweden so he can ship it to me .

For example...  CA batch=1200 neptunes x 5 boxes = 6000 boxes
                     Batch1=1200 neptunes x 5 boxes = 6000 boxes.


-400 franken jupiters and whatever number decided to refund.
I had thought of that, but given the circumstances, and recent actions; I assumed any refunded orders would be "earmarked" for the datacenter, and doesn't actually "skip" orders. (Worst case scenario)
***But, even given the benefit of that doubt...
and cutting those estimates in half.... still a "tossup" to me... might as well flip a coin
