Title: Not sure if this has been mentioned but likely a scam
Post by: hax0red on June 20, 2013, 04:47:08 AM
I did a search of google and here but didn't find any topics relating to this or it's validity. It looks like a complete scam to me and no I have zero interest since I don't see FPGA scrypt mining possibly being profitable with the chips I have seen but I thought it should be brought to everyones attention to help the trusting/gullible among us.

 Indicates "luke-sr" is involved which I assume by the avatar they meant jr but I doubt he has any knowledge. I may be way off and this is a product but clearly looks like a power supply with labels stuck to it  ;D

Thanks, that's about what I thought. Odd though searching bitbar,scrypt and asic in multiple combinations turned up no results.

Luke Jr now calls himself "Luke Sr", presumably because he has bred.

Hopefully his children don't grow up to be bible bashing nutcases who misinterpret the bits of the bible that say be nice to everyone :)
