news letter from KNC All
OK, so the day is finally here. We can now officially launch our first product dedicated to scrypt mining.
The Scrypt mining market has grown over the last 6 months and we have been watching it very closely. The time is now right for the launch of our new offering.
The device is being called Titan and is available here. The same team and partners have been working together again. With their expertise and speed we expect to ship titan before the competition and have a product that outperforms their offerings.
The details of the device we can reveal today are as follows:
- Minimum 100/MH/s of performance. (likely to increase as we get further down the development path)
- Uses a Standard ATX power supply (customer supplied ATX).
- Based on the existing Jupiter form factor but will have blades containing numerous chips inside.
- Shipment begins in Q2/Q3 of 2014.
We will keep you all updated as the development progresses.
For those of you wanting to convert an existing Neptune order to a titan order please contact customer service for assistance.
as for other news, We passed a huge milestone in the progress of Neptune last month when we passed the "tape out" stage of the production. We are now in the foundry stage and as soon as the chips arrive we will let you all know. More info about the tape out is available here.
Thanks

Just received this email with information about changes to configuration of the miner. Doesn't seem to effect the performance or power consumption. So it's all good. [Note]:I just got an information, the amount of the chip after the batch of Mar 19 decreased from 40 to 32, but kept the hash rate of 1000G by overlocked the chip. The influence on the temperature, the noise and stability of the miner is still unknown, the factory did not provide technical article and I still trying to figure it out. However, the factory does promise it will mine btc with hash rate of 1000G. So you need to take that into consideration when you make your decision.As for the buyer joined the lee group round 2, i will respect your choice, if you want to cancel the order, i will refund the btc to you, but you need to be quick, the miner is about to deliver.
The detail information about the change of dragon miner 1T
The chip only perform 25G H/s in the previous version, it is not the default speed of coin-craft A1 chip which is 32 G H/S. The hash rate have adjusted to 32 G H/S in this version and it is still not the highest speed of coin-craft A1 chip, which is 40 G H/s.
The influence on its temperature , stability and power consumption
1) power consumption, no change in power consumption of the chip, the overall power consumption only slightly increased for 20W because of the add of a new fan
2) Temperature: when the room temperature is about 20 ℃, the temperature of heat sink is about 40-50℃, not as good as before, but is still acceptable
3) Stability, no change in stability, the miner perform a stable hash rate of 10000G as before. |

hi pcfli,
I'm interested in 1 Dragon miner
I have sent you an email with a few questions.

wow down 1PH/s, to 4.2PH/s
did the NMC hack scare off a few big boys?
|
|
|
|
How often are NMC payments made? I'm not sure I've ever gotten one.  usually daily how long have you merged mined NMC? |
|
|
|
I just checked after seeing these posts and mine was changed to above address also. fixed it now, but how did it change? and will it mysteriously change again? edit. last NMC payout to my address was on 9th March (Australian time) just over 4 days ago |

Good day,
I'm living in Australia and I'm wondering can I order AntMiner S1 here in Sydney Australia?
Preferably I'd like to pay through bank transfer, in Australian dollar or USD rather than paying in bitcoin as I don't have any bitcoin and buying it here in Australia is a bit of hassle
Would like to know if this product available locally or it will be shipped from China,
If I can order it locally how much is the final price, and If its shiped from china how much is the import tax
I really appreciate your help
use https://www.localbitcoins.com/ to buy BTC, it's very easy and safe. you can even buy it instantly with cash if you have someone in your area. |

KNC's greed is going to do terrible damn to bitcoin, eventually.
I agree with you bitcoin is meant to be a decentalized P2P payment system (and much more) and was designed to be run by many around the world as Satoshi Nakamoto wanted it and designed it to be, not by a few mega mining farms. KNC in the beginning acted like they were big supporters of the bitcoin community telling us they were going build great mining machines to spread around supporting the bitcoin network and their customers, but in fact are doing the total opposite. Sucked us all in. When I first discovered bitcoin I loved the idea and tried spreading the word around about bitcoin to friends and everyone I bumped into. I was telling them that this is going to be huge as this bitcoin network is run by many people around the world like the P2P file sharing network worked. It couldn't be stopped, it couldn't be controlled by any government or bank. now I believe this isn't the case and it will only get worse so I refrain from spreading the word, I'm starting to think that one day in the near future instead of people complaining that the banks and governments have to much control with the monetary system it will be people complaining that a few mega mining farms will have this insane control with bitcoin. I sure as hell can't trust KNC anymore and I can't tell others to do so also. As fantastic as bitcoin is (true genius invention) I don't believe that people would take to the idea that it's controlled and run by a couple mega mining farms. In the long run the many banks in many countries and many governments around the world would look less controlled/monopolized than bitcoin will look. When you really think about people can elect a new government, people can change banks, and people can transact with whatever they want, but if bitcoin goes into the hands of a few greedy individuals you've don't have a choice no longer. maybe the bitcoin foundation should impose some rules like mining farms cannot exceed a certain size in hash power, I know this is impossible to enforce but something has to be done before it really gets out of hand. Sorry for the grim outlook but this is my gut feeling as to how this is going to pan out, the few greedy liars will destroy bitcoin. 1-2 years ago people were so damn scared about a 51% attack, now when the total hashrate is going to the moon everyone is still complaining. Until proven KnC still are good guys and i don't see how can their greed do terrible thins to bitcoin. We have cex.io that made a successful double spend and nobody is complaining so much about them and we have KnC who did nothing wrong except mine more coins than anyone else and people are complaining. People are weird! I can't disagree with you and wish I can see KNC as you do, but at moment I don't get that fuzzy feeling from them. cex.io is a cloud farm selling mining contracts so they don't come across like KNC do. the size or 51% perspective of cex.io doesn't come across as greedy as KNC, but truthfully I don't know to much who and how cex.io operates and if they lied to get to where they are. KNC have registered a 'knccloud' domain but I think they will only sell mining contacts when they see a decline in mining revenue for themselves. I just lost my trust with them only because of their behavior and lies. We're still waiting for them to sell some jupiter upgrade modules. Couldn't they just come out and say, sorry there isn't going to be any. Their transparency and communications about selling existing modules and development of neptune isn't reassuring. I really hope I'm wrong and bitcoin does succeed, and not just to make profit mining just because I like to see a bitcoin payment system and protocol remove/take some of the control from banks and governments. |

seems weird that my name would be repetitiously brought up wrt some sort of 'classic fudster' nonsense when all i have done is point out lies & liars.
it is not my doing or fault they were so vociferous, i merely came to point them out.
would it be better if they were left in peace to run amok among us??
seems that some would believe it to be so, i wonder why??
now that scammer1969 and his alter-ego brothers/mates have slunk off isnt it nicer & safer here?
i certainly think so, even if KnC still show us the same disregard they pretty much always have done.
it baffles me why some posters would prefer if the scammers were given free reign to just be cunts and even go so far as to defend them and/or offer them 'donations'
anyway, for 32 grand im entitled to voice my opinions, so put that in your pipe and dont smoke it, this is a public space!!
OTT & vicious, indeed!!
have you got any proof that pheonix1969 was a scammer? If you have then just prove it and stop. or were you offended by some dispute/remarks by pheonix1969 in the past and haven't got over it? You're just making yourself look like someone not operating on all cylinders. Let it go, enough is enough. |

fantastic engineering. I was thinking of doing similar setup but never got around to it. Are they 2 Saturns? Why not use one controller for the 4 asic boards? What brand are the water blocks and radiator used? |

'tape out' completed  this was totally unexpected, now I'm excited  Joeventura and his insider information has been wrong with his predictions that there wasn't going to be a physical miner, and I was actually starting to beleive him. So how long does it take to slice and package wafers? Anyone? ok ok you can come back Orama... this is good news and we can all be friends again   |

No... Fuck YOU, LYING, SCAMMING, MULTIPLE ACCOUNT ABUSING, SHITCUNT!! YOU & YOUR FAKE MATES/FAMILY/COHORTS.....SUFFER THE SHIT YOU BROUGHT UPON YOURSELVES!! SUFFER!!! EVEN WITH A THOUSAND NEW ACCOUNTS MR PRESIDENT, YOU WILL ALWAYS REEK OF THE FILTH THAT ROTS INSIDE OF YOU!! ALWAYS!! With all your screaming & ranting this is the most honest you have EVER been, the true you, yet you remain a pathetic confidence trickster.. if your psychiatrist seen you obsession over this shit he'd get you committed for long long time relax or you're going to flip your lid in a way that it wont be repairable |

is it still possible to get a refund for those neptunes?
Yes, they allow refunds on all batches up until the point they are in production. ok, cause i got my invoice today and wasnt sure what that means for refunds got mine today also. |
|
|
|
+1 I to have plans to install a couple of new circuits just for neptunes because I'm already pushing the limits of my circuits with the jupiters I have. I will make KNC pay for them if this turns out to be cloud hashing. |

I corrected your post for you.
Now I am just as pissed at KNC as the next guy, however you do not know Bitcoinorama's situation, I on the other hand do know what is going on through a private conversations with him. I am not going to get into details except to say, I corrected your post to reflect accuaracy as I know it.
so if you're communicating with orama and you've been saying there's going to be no physical miners delivered but only cloud hashing then we should take it you know more than you're revealing. No? I'm sure you swore to secrecy but you should give us more of a hint if you did in fact know something that's going to help us out.  |

I don't know what KNC want to achieve with this wallet. Just guesstimating, speculating and pulling ideas out of my ass... BUT why has bitcoinorama disappeared. he's probably trying to tell us, beware KNC has gone mad |

Well it can reach even more after we hit 21M limit. Maybe it won't be 5 digit number, but 4 will reach easily i think.
you do realize you'll be dead when it reaches 21M (126 years away), and 4 digit figure wouldn't even buy a loaf of bread. edit. it's actually 135.5 years away, I think wow, such difference anyways, we won't be here to see it but our children will enjoy our bitcoins or our children's children you think they will try to mine the last couple of bitcoins left if they're worth a billion dollars or more? |

Making provisions for new 30 amp circuits, distribution, racks, and they won't even ship our hardware? WHY are they doing this we trusted them and they are killing us!
