I don't believe KNC would offer any more Jupiter's (from stock) until some very promising Neptune development news first.  If they're are to offer any at all.  So as not to hurt Neptune pre-orders or cause a mass exodus of Neptune refunds.  Which started to happen when they first mentioned a Jupiter batch #3.

I'm beginning to think the Jupiter's aren't going to launch.  Every time I talk to KNC they make it sound like they still have no plans and they make it sound like the Neptune is coming first.

I think the amount of people wanting to cancel their Neptune's for more Jupiter's is quite high and they might be questioning themselves now.

People aren't stupid.  The difficulty is going to run away from everyone.  KNC is going to obliterate the diff once again like they did last year and people want to mine now rather than wait.

I beleive also

when KNC announced that they were going to sell new Jupiters and the reason for saying keep your coins handy, was sort of saying to us don't refund but save up some coins to buy Jupiters.  otherwise their statement would of been get ready to refund Neptunes to buy Jupiters.

I think KNC had all good intentions to help us protect our part of the network but to many idiots fucked it for us.  
And I don't think saying, oh I just wanted refund because of power concerns.  one we knew the approx power consumption was going to be high, and two these refunds suddenly began after the announcement of new Jupiter being offered.

when Bitcoinorama is not here from 2 days or more... usually means that something is going to happen...  Undecided

I can't fathom how some of you are even managing to push the cables to their limit. I run GPUs which each pull more wattage chan the KNC power boards, and they're not getting that hot. Blow a fan across them or something?? My KNC unit's cables don't even get that hot. All my dies run without issue.

Are you guys far-overclocking them or something?

I'm ready to see news of Neptunes coming.

Give it 3-4 months, you'll get news.

Why would you assume you pull more current with GPUs?
How much do you think you use?

I have GPUs pulling 350-360watts (29-30amps). I wasn't under the impression that the KNC modules were pulling that. I could be mistaken.

I am in the minority of the market as a #1 Small Investor who wanted to re-invest, but unfortunately does not have the ability to host the latest KNC miners without moving or finding an outside hosting solution which stinks because KNC actually did deliver and really the rest of the mining companies are very risky compared to KNC miner in my opinion.

I really hope they release the Jupiters but I can also see them just focusing on the Neptune and attempting to release it earlier than expected, that would really keep groups #'s 2 & 3 as long term buyers.

A hosted solution is going to be pretty much inevitable within six months I reckon because either you'll want a second machine to keep up the earnings, or the next development increment will simply melt a residential property power circuit, so I figured I may as well bite the bullet and start looking around for hosting now. If we're sensible and community minded, people will band together and group buy a data centre and host themselves at cost. But because we're all solitary and selfish we won't, but hey - it'll just be part of the cost of doing Bitcoin business.

The team at - www.redstarmining.com - are looking into starting a data centre to host Neptunes in the Mid West United States.  Due to cheap electricity and no import VAT at 20% like all EU miners currently have to pay.  We've started this thread to see what kind of interest there is - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4125801
Careful Mat....  Fincen just mentioned hosting indirectly... "Money transmitters"   just a heads up...you might want to read their latest announcement.....and I don't mean just the headline....hehe

The world has more than one major economic block now and the deepnet is getting deeper too if RSM has to say goodbye to US shareholders.  As for the datacentre it's just that and not a farm or anything else.  Customers will pay for rackspace and nothing more.

Edit:  Worst case scenario for RSM is for the cooperative to end the public trading of shares which are currently done in Hong Kong.  As a private cooperative of individuals we can continue RSM's 90% reinvestment privately.

OK, Guys,

I have serious, horrible luck. I have (I know, not smart) cashed out all my BTC.  All coins I was keeping handy for  a re-release of jupiter is gone. Now that I cant pay BTC for one or two, my rotten luck says you guys who have coins ready will be able to buy.
Good luck.

If the timing of my coin sale helped you get a Jupiter (LOL), Please use my link if you dont have your own.

Agreed. It's not impossible to think that Neptunes may start shipping in February. TSMC started high volume 20nm production in December, and Knc started work on the Neptune in October.

Anyone have any idea whether KNC is going to offer anything for sale in the interim?

Before I invest in another platform for immediate delivery I'd like some kind of idea if anything is possible on the KNC side.

Its almost the 10th of January and time is a wastin'



50/ 50 - no one knows. was answered several times in the last 200+ pages. my guess is no additional sales. they are all in on neptune
