Topic: Swedish ASIC miner company kncminer.com - page 642. (Read 3050080 times)
This thread is getting full of FUD posted by the same few accounts over and over again. That leads me to believe that they are either shills for another manufacture or they couldn't afford to put money down on Neptunes but wish they could. So they want KNC to underdeliver, and do bad, so that they feel better. It's one thing to have a strong opinion and want to share it, but to keep spamming it and shout down anyone with a positive view just makes you a troll. You know who you are and you can pipe down a bit now. Then, if you are correct you can quote your post and gloat. I can see why Orama doesn't want to post. So far KNC has been the best bitcoin ASIC manufacture so far. So I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt to deliver until proven otherwise.

but who is that new king on the block? Cloudhashing?
1000 refunded orders, that's gonna hurt.
Not if you are mining with equipment purchased with customers money, selling the btc and giving people refunds with the mining profits.I certainly didn't see any comment in the newsletter about the video we've all seen with 1000 boards hashing in their new datacentre.
true enough, reckon they'll sell 'em?
They will force everybody onto a 6 month cloud hashing contract. I mean, if they announce you can have 6 months cloud from June or wait for Neptune, that is going to be delayed until at least November, who in their right mind would wait?
Eventually they'll make Neptune, to pad out their arctic empire, as it will be lower power than the jupiter boards. But probably we won't see it until 2015.
In the meantime, we'll see just how much truth lies behind their February 2014 statement of "As we are getting closer to the launch date of Neptune", as time progresses.
well I would love to be completely wrong on this, but as you know, i've always said we won't see 20nm bitcoin mining rigs until at least 2015... please KnC prove me wrong.

How close is "closer", is "closer" close enough?.... and when doesnt "closer" start to be not close enough anymore...

Wow, that many have canceled - close to one third..
Anyone knows about the exact date when Neptunes (batch1,2,3) are considered late?

Buying BTC if you have USDs instead of buying BTC miners now.
At least buy them with the opportunity for some extra-hashrate on top of it if you want hashing power

Update:
All,
As we are getting closer to the launch date of Neptune. We are able to release more of the products as we are still on track. So today there are now 1000 more products in the shop. This is the second half batch two and will ship alongside the first half.
This batch will also be covered by our online hashing (Plan B), if we are late we will simply give you a choice of converting to our online hosted hashing of 3TH from our facilities if you wish to
Thanks

Well, it looks like they already have the hashrate to cover batch 1a. IMHO, batch 1a will be considered late in mid May. As the final batch two was sold to be shipped in quarter two. Batch 1b a month before that and batch 1a a few weeks before that. So in IMO mid May is the latest they can leave it for batch 1a.
Batch 1a was listed as Q1/Q2.
It is late on July 1st.
Anything else is wishful thinking.
I disagree. If the farm is ready by mid March, then I would expect hashing for customers would start almost immediately. I don't think that customers would tolerate anything else. Is it possible that they would first hash on massive power for themselves? Yes, it is possible, but would be wrong on so many levels-it is not even funny. They want to stay in business year after year-you cannot do that if you upset your customers. Hashing totally for themselves is super risky because it opens up for massive losses due to currency/BTC price fluctuation.
When is the farm 'ready'?
When the first unit goes in? When they have enough hashing power to replicate all Neptunes ordered?
Yes I think they will hash for themselves (or sell cloud hashing), why on earth wouldn't they.
They've offered you cloud hashing if your unit is late. Late means not Q1/Q2.
Q1/Q2 does not mean June 30 by any reasonable means. I doubt that they will take this position.
Why?
How much earlier than promised were Jupiters delivered?
If they deliver on June 30th they are not technically late.
I've asked for a refund of Neptune last week, and got the money back today. Quick and professional customer service.
My main concern was that according to this calculator http://btcinvest.net/en/bitcoin-mining-profit-calculator.php, the miner would need to come on line end of March at the latest to break even. I'll be watching KnC's foray into cloudhashing with interest, and maybe buy shares from them if they would appear to be at least a little profitable.
In the meantime, the fiat money that I got refunded got redirected strait back to Bitstamp, and if the price on Monday/Tuesday stays about the same as today, I will have made BTC6 of pure profit.

Q1/Q2 does not mean June 30 by any reasonable means. I doubt that they will take this position. It is now documented that center is expected to be ready on Match 12 or about. To expect that they will hash for themselves until June 30 and leave everybody on a lurch is simply not reasonable. Nobody will ever deal with them afterwards. In addition, they want you hooked for years. Starting on July 1, 3th/s will NEVER produce $13200 in bitcoin without crazy bitcoin appreciation (To 3-4k). I think that KnC wants customers to make money, otherwise this would be their last sell.
Think about another point: it has been pointed out that they offered a few people refund in bitcoin. This means two things: a. they have plenty of bitcoin, which probably means that they are actively hashing and b. CUSTOMERS will get more bitcoins than are currently offered as refund, otherwise refunding in bitcoin does not make sense.
As you can see, i am trying to give KnC the benefit of the doubt. I will decide what to do once the timelines are clearer.
id say june 30th is the ABSOLUTE EARLIEST we would see anything... we have received late on every single 'batch' they ve ever released despite promises and expectations.
its all been lies.. lies to squeeze as much money out of us as possible.
i wanted to believe, and voted with my wallet.
now i am just disgusted, just like i am with avalon, bfl, hashfast, and especially all the scammers & shills!!
dis-gus-ted!!
since KNC killed this thread with no more miners... there's a few lulz within the cointerra user guide
http://cointerra.com/user-guide/
see if you can spot them all.. also, I couldn't find the section instructing the user on how to get ROI.. must not be included in this model

Are they refunding via BTC or wire?
According to earlier posts by others, both.
So i could choose?
i'd probably get it in USD myself but what do i know
me...i'm considering buying it at these prices.....the assumption being that
tech issues on the coin and mtgox other exchanges will work themselves out

Don't know. You'd have to ask KnC.
