Hi,

Would be good to have a transparent company!

how much TH/s do you have?

did you buy the equipment under IQONIA name? It would be good to get bitmain to confirm you have a large amount of equipment.

What is your current mining address?

Your prices are quite expensive compared to some other cloud mining providers, Any chance of lowering? See MineThatCloud for example currently at 0.15€/GHs compared to your 0.48€/GHs.


I like the fact you let customers choose where to mine.

Thanks for answering the above questions.

Your the one mentioning it now? no?

that is YOUR opinion, dont bring your rediculous opinion into these dicussions. They have so far done NO wrong, just seems to be your presumptions.

Back on topic

I hope you can answer these questions IQONIA, I will be happy to mine with you :)

I like your website, it seems very professional

Thanks for answering the above questions.


how much TH/s do you have?

-> we start with ~143 THs

did you buy the equipment under IQONIA name? It would be good to get bitmain to confirm you have a large amount of equipment.
-> we will buy the equipment under our company name, see imprint on our website as IQONIA is only a service name.

What is your current mining address?
-> will be published in 2-3 weeks as soon as we setup the miners

Your prices are quite expensive compared to some other cloud mining providers, Any chance of lowering? See MineThatCloud for example currently at 0.15€/GHs compared to your 0.48€/GHs.

-> they sell only 1 year contracts and we already have huge discounts. I don't know how they do it. As we are as transparent as we can, we can only sell you what we get as prices and not any fantasy numbers. We added a 10% coupon until 30.01.2015. I will check on the prices and what we can possibly do to reduce them.

Thank you for your answers!

I think you will get a lot of customers. If everything looks good in a couple of weeks.. You will already have a customer with me.

Looks forward to getting back to you.

They aren't mining. They're just running a ponzi scam.

ok this clears all up.

I adjusted our prices slightly. but this is the minimum we can go for 1 THs: ~0,43$ per GHs.

USD or Euros? The announcement lists Euros.

So for 1 TH/s:

Contract cost ($.43 * 1000) = $430
Estimated cost of miner = $200

That leaves $230 for hosting, or roughly $.05/kwh. That's pretty cheap hosting. Am I close?

in that range yes, but you have to count rent for the datacenter, installation services, cooling etc. etc. that makes it more expensive per kwh

Congratulations on your attempt to provide a transparent mining service.
I'll be following your set up with interest, as I am sick and tired of being asked to invest in schemes which are obvious scams (one mentioned above).
I know you have a website Q&A page, but could you help me out with a couple of queries here?

Your parent company is White Balance Gmbh,  http://www.whitebalance.de/cms/ yes?
They seem to be a consultancy type operation, this must be quite a new thing for them, capital investment in mining.
Did this come about from Iqonia selling the concept to them, or was it an in-house project that you decided to go with yourselves?
Also, just to be clear, you have no association with Iqonia in Salzburg?

In your T&C's there are just a couple of things:
18 ) mentions UK law, but Bremen as the court of first instance? Why is that?
 8 ) KYC. Does the identification procedure apply to non fiat purchases?

Thanks.
As I say, good luck, I feel that I may have at last found a home for some coin.

Yes, our parent company is whitebalance.de. Iqonia is just our in-house project name, we are consultant agency specialised in project management and wanted to do something in crypto. As something like this did not existed yet, a real transparent cloud, who everybody can feel save and don't have to fear that it vanishes out of nowhere.

No we have no association with iqonia in salzburg.

18) that must have been a glitch, thanks for pointing it out!

8 ) only required for FIAT payment, yes.

Good luck with your project, I hope you're able to follow through on your promise of providing transparency. I think people would be crazy to preorder cloud mining in this market especially before you are able to provide proof of your claims, but that's up to your customers.

      What asics are you waiting for? Antminer S6? Or you hope BitFury will ship you some?
      Any new roadmap for what and when to expect?
      Or maybe you'll change your mind - have you considered launching your own PoS coin instead? ;D Just kidding ;)
