Just received the following mail by KNC.
What happens if I click on the link ? My second miner is automatically converted to the "Hash while you wait" offer or I end up on a page where I can chose ?

Yes, Elenelen posted this one page back : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=170332.msg7564241#msg7564241

Is it possible to peal of the yellow sticker from the VRMs ?
Is it safe the put aluminum or cooper heatsinks directly on the VRMs with only thermal paste (link) and not thermal adhesive pads (link) ? As VRMs convert electricity and heatsinks are electrical conductors.

No

Contact KNC, maybe they'll tell you, or add an option in the next firmware.
Could you post pictures of your set-up ?


Edit : Would these 20mm spacers work ? How many do you need per box ?

What is the thickness of the thermal pad between the VMR's and the aluminium plate ? 0.5mm, 1mm or 1.5mm ?
it's possible to replace the thermal pad and put a thicker one.

Did the 5 Neptune boxes came in one same package thru UPS ?

It's a fake until they post pictures ans specification.

From their email of Monday 9th :
I wonder what happened here ?
Oh wait, I think I here people from KNC's HQ : "Run with the money and bitcoins!"

Lots of people on this topic say that KNC has more then 5% of the hashrate of the network.
According to this website https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/ Sweden has only 1.65% of the hashrate of the network.

I know it doesn't mean much, as they can have a VPN with a US IP for example.

I can access it.
Weren't you banned from the forum and they banned your IP ?

Fired and in the Swedish streets ?


KNC, the next MTGox :
"-When will I see my money/bitcoins ?
-Soon"

Did you upgrade to Firmware 1.01 ?
Maybe Firmware 1.01 was made to break Octorber/November miners.

There's one possibility nobody talked about :
KNC produces the Neptunes, puts them in their datacenter, decides to cancel the shipping of the Neptune and Titan and refund everybody with the mined BTC (legally they earned money by keeping the fiat).



You can bet, look at my signature.

Or 2 Neptunes in August

I'm waiting for plan F for "F**k customers". Oh wait wasn't that the FrankenJupiters ?

How can they come up with a so bad design for the FrankenJupiter !
Look at their video : https://www.dropbox.com/s/wq0fl657n3i818u/20140430_200829.mp4
Did they seriously think it would arrive in one piece ?! The box itself is thin and the coolers aren't attached to anything.

I entered the BTC mania by investing in a KNC Saturn (that is still mining by the way) and was ready to loose the ~4600$ I invested.
I already cashed back my investment, so everything else is extra and if I loose it I don't really care.
I had a stressful and demanding job, so I played a lot with the BTC, managed to gain some, and used it all to buy a few Neptunes, to get my mind of the BTC world. In the meantime, I totally forgot about them.

All I see now, is a bunch of people that asked for a refund or exchanged their order for a Titan or a 3Th 28nm.
I understand that people are afraid to not get their investment back.
I personally think, I'll get back the BTC I used after 4 to 6 mouths  of mining if we receive, the paid ones (and not the free ones) before July.



A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

I'm so happy, still have some Neptune orders because I forgot them. And now they are doubled  !
Also, KNC is learning from their mistakes (shipping, firmware, maybe dead lines), so I'm sure to receive full functional miners.
