I think one of the hashing boards in one of my November Jupiters just failed.

Basically, whenever I connect power to this board, it seems to short out the power supply so the power supply won't turn on. I've tried two different power supplies, and the same thing happens with them both when this board is plugged in.

The unit runs fine with the other three hashing boards plugged into the power supply.

I'm going to remove the bad board and inspect it tonight, but I think it's done.

This Jupiter started acting up a week ago and would randomly stop hashing, and I suspect this was the cause.

after meeting orama, he was very short in hat he would say. he is of the opinion he owes no one anything, be that a thank you, a sorry or a explanation, he stopped working at KnC months agp but cannot really talk about it, he recons he is due thousands from KnC and he got paid very little for his work.

since leaving KnC he has had nothing to do with bitcoin, why he was at the 2014 confrenece I don't know. basically he struck me as  a ittelegent guy but quite naive in his thinking. it was hard to.push him for answers, I suspect I very tight NDA keeping him quiet. while I was informing my friend David and trying to push on certain parts of.KnC's contempt and dishonesty, I could almost see Alex nodding in agreement, it was like I was watching the back of his head but knew this jaw and mouth were moving to mimic and copy the words I was speaking.

I met Alex with a friend of mine David Bailey, he runs ybitcoin magazine, whom KnC along with many other BTC companies are paid advertises. I tried my hardest to point out KnC crowd funding their own data center, breaking network protection, owning 11% of network and screwing franken jup customers.

Basically David was having none of it, he had very little understanding of what KnC had done over the last 6 months, although he has met them and thinks they are intelligent and full of charisma, he has never been a customer, only a paid advertiser. I am sure he told.me KnC are the best company to date and he has spoke or read reviews from customers which say so.

I feel as if we the community should show ybitcoin the real KnC and encourage them to be dropped as advertisers. either that of boycot the magazine.

bitcoin has taken a large turn for me recently, I have been learning and studying since 2011 and so much has changed, mostly in the last 6-12 months. who knows if I will stick around for the next 3 years.

I didn't see this posted in the past few pages, apologies if I missed it

so what kind of queue is this??


perhaps with the slight price rise they will either rush out some more refunds

or maybe just stall some more and hope they can give us 1BTC refund...

So y'all have 10 days left to bail, then KNC owns your cash  

No chip spec for the Neptune, but they reminded everyone once again that they will open a cloud mining service which will compete with their own customers and which will make their customers earn less bitcoins after they promised that they will NOT compete with their customers. Good job KnC! Fucking liars! Mega fail!

Yeah dammit!  I feel so abused and abandoned now... with dignity, of course.

When you read their news you'll see statements like this:

"We have a photo today of what the new Neptune ASIC board will look like, The chip on this card is the Jupiter 28nm chip but the card will physically look the same when it starts shipping next month."



Putting "starts shipping" in the statement is a passive way to hypnotize our minds that it really will happen. Another marketing tactic out of the marketing 101 book.

OK, ^in my post I reckoned Q4 end. but i'm an eternal pessimist, you are likely to have a neptune, in hand, hashing, in September (if KfC can build with ZERO problems)

I just don't know how to react this update, 21 May, still not get your 20nm chips, so we still need to expecting assembly and SMT process, btw does bare board already available?

Now, we can counting how many lead time we are still expecting, well it will be at least 3 weeks to go if you got chip by next week; and does boxes of Nipy ready? how many time they consume to assembly a machine, oh my dear it will be another month to start shipping if you have chip by next week(Monday).........    

And according to the latest tap out news, there is at least 2 weeks to expecting 20nm chips, Oh be serious my dear~ shortest leadtime is 5 weeks to go my guess~   

Yes, I would say that what I have, is proof that it will be august before they get their chips, however, it's my proof and you are not getting to see it 

seriously though ...because my source would get the sack and i'm not being held responsible for that. Information fed via me means it could be one of 300 employees who leaked this info - so my source is safe (well, until that employee resigns).

so..  if nothing else, making that PCB has given them something to do while they mine the crap out of the network huh?

I'm not disputing your statement, just simply stating that June will reveal it one way or another. You have no proof that they are getting their chips in August, and they have no proof that they are coming in June, so everyone will just have to wait

yes, we will 'C'. 

LOL worried are you?
