1) Learn to use images
2) What does that even mean? That you knew at least a week ago that you'll not be able to ship on the 18th but decided to playing dumb?

The Chinese factory does not obey me. I can not influence their promises.

No communication from you DwarfMiner since June 19th.

What is the status of shipping these orders? Or should I assume this was a scam all along like the rest of the posters here thought?

(Yes, I am still foolishly holding out hope.)

They probably set up a few shell subsidiaries to run these miners, so it wasn't really their company doing any mining. I wouldn't discount another possibility: there may also be other companies that developed their own (or contracted out the developement of) ASIC/FPGAs and had no intention of selling to the public or revealing they even have these machines, and were mining with them. Once the fork occurred, they also got kicked off mining on the new chain.

If this is real and we are now going to have FPGA testing/mining empty blocks and not reporting their stats coming out of China, it's going to make things more complicated.
We already have about 50 MH/S discrepancy between what the Electroneum blockchain explorer reports and the total hash power added up of all the reporting pools and someone is mining empty blocks. I'm thinking Bitmain and Genesis are prime suspects for not reporting their private pools but I don't see them mining empty blocks. I could see however China making FPGA's and testing them and mining empty blocks.
Well if we are really going to see small affordable FPGA's like this (if this is real), once the cat is out of the bag we are going to see a thousand counterfeits coming out of China.


How do you mine empty blocks? How does that work?

If these small FPGAs get onto the market, it's like a more power efficient sets of GPUs, and unlike ASICs they won't destroy the networks that quickly. But eventually when thousands of these are getting sold by copycats, any good return on coins will disappear. Until then, I'm refreshing this page at least once every 5 min to keep up with the latest episode of this unfolding drama/suspense/thriller. I may have to seek medical help if nothing unfolds in the next week or so.  Grin

@Dwarfminer

How many do you anticipate for batch 2? And when would that start? I wonder how many could flood the market since you've seen a strong demand already.

I think that Patience is the key factor in crypto. Cryptobridge will list BSX soon.

The future is now...ummm BSX has been on Cryptobridge for a while already.

Just need to see some progress on the coin front. Really liked the 50% POS idea, too bad. No small investor will come in for only 5%.

The fact remains, that when you mine, you essentially transform energy (the watts) into information, it's simple physics. Information is energy. Being able to hash at 3.5Kh/s for 10W just doesn't seem right, you're near 100% efficiency. And don't get me wrong, but looking at the pictures of the miner, it doesn't look like much...

If I were you, I'd produce 1000 and run them myself and just dump whatever I mine to make a shit ton of $$$$.

If someone trusted on here confirms that your miner does what you say it does, then I'll be the first to order 10 from you. But until then, this is a scam in my books.



Your argument about selling a money priting machine cheaply is very fine.

But the power argument is in-correct, the Baikal N240 does 240Kh/s at 650W, almost same power per watt...

I remember seeing people saying the Halong miners were a scam, they too showed a bunch of Youtube videos and never sent a review unit out to those that wanted one. I ordered 2 of these, so I will see what happens. If legit, I'm sure they have a few "prototypes" already mining on the CryptonightV7 pools. I'd buy 100 of batch 2 if it works out.
Never mentioned anything about warranty though.
