A bit off topic, sorry, let me know if there's a better place:
It's been like a thousand pages since I posted here. First I'd like to make a big shout out to Bitcoinorama for convincing me that KnC was legit. You were right man and on behalf of myself, and my friends and family, thank you very! If you can do updates on the coming Neptunes that would be great (another thread? Or here?)
Anyways:
I'm looking for a batch 1 (October) Saturn, with 6 ASIC connections on the controller board. I would also consider a batch 2 (November) Saturn or a Saturn from either batch with only 4 ASIC connections on the controller board. Payment in BTC through escrow.
Please make an offer. Thanks.

@Luke-Jr: I appreciate the thoughtful post. I don't have an understanding of the technical side of things as you do. I'd have to say I agree. I know that an ASIC is already in the works for Litecoin. I generally feel like altcoins can hurt bitcoin by simply detracting attention.

I just had an idea I want to throw here, and you'll do whatever you want with it:
It would be great you could run a similar pool for Litecoin! It's one of the few trustable altcoin, and it's pretty much the last place we can spend CPU and GPU hashing power and not spend more in electricity.
Eloipool and wizstats are really well done software, and you guys seem really honest and devoted to your pool, so I believe it would be as awesome with Litecoin. It's because we're honest that we won't get involved with scams like Litecoin. Why is litecoin a scam? Please point me to a convincing thread. Yeah I'm interested too, since it's coming from you. The developer of LTC works at Coinbase. Seems like a smart bloke. |

I'll get a manual payout together this afternoon.
Thank you. I've never had to wait this long before... it's a bit painful. Love the NMC reintegration BTW. Thanks again. |

Thanks for the honest feedback. I'm still a bit torn. Based on what pixl8r said: About 5.3 BTC since Nov 1 running between 575-600GH/s So about .66 BTC per day. I guess it's worth a shot until the next diff. He's hashing a bit faster than me, so that may mean the 0.10 ish BTC difference. F it, I'll give it a go and hang around for a while to make it worth it. Maybe after you guys find a couple blocks. PPS does feel consistent and reassuring, but since I'm loyal and not hopping, it seems a bit back assward to use PPS. Hopefully my train-of-thought is correct :) @gigavps I'm just curious if you could reveal how many peeps are on PPS vs PPLNS. Thanks. |

Volume just means non-prototype. The article I linked to was a month old. There are plenty of similar ones only days old. The number of 20nm designs for the entire year is a couple dozen. Did KNC secure one of those coveted slots I doubt it given the number of industry giants who likely will be excluded from 20nm in 2014. Still your first claim was: KNC also looking to come out with their 16/20nm miner around March 2014. I think we can agree a) KNC said nothing of the such b) March isn't even a possibility for 20nm. c) 2014 isn't even a possibility for 16nm. I put money on 2015 at the earliest you may disagree but at least you admit than any 1620nm in March sometime in 2014 is your assumption not a statement by KNC. The most recent information on KnC and < 28nm is in the 5th paragraph of their latest news update. Yeah that is what we were discussing already. Sure you were bub. |

Hope you PPS folks have been enjoying yourselves the past day.
I guess so, 0.5BTC per day since I started and nothing has changed, which is good in a way. I run at 550GH/s. Anybody willing to be open and share a normal weekly average earnings from PPLNS at around 550GH/s? I've been debating a switch to PPLNS, but read that it's only about 5% better in the long run, whatever the long run means. Thanks. |

Sounds like Hashfast customers are screwed. That sucks. Time is, of course, everything for mining. KnC was only 11 days late and for some of us it means no profit and just breaking even. I get to break even, yay. It's a pretty cool machine to show off to my friends, yeah! You're gonna need at least a TH in hand by the end of the month or forget it. I'm currently at 0.5BTC per day with 552GH/s. I'm curious to see if Cointerra will flop now too... |

Use Varnish, an HTTP accelerator. I use it on my Drupal sites. Haters can try DDoS all day and it doesn't matter. The webpages are cached and served from RAM, not disk. I forget the insane pages per second it can serve, but it's top notch. For example, Lullabot, a Drupal shop that runs the Grammy.com website for the night of the Grammys, use Varnish on it. It can handle insane traffic. |

Just FYI, I emailed KNC almost a week ago asking what September delivery means if it's early, mid, or late. Still no reply. My guess is they used September delivery which might very well be true to lure in people, but if that's the end of September that's pretty much October. This means for them to deliver early September they need to get finished products by Friday the latest for them to test and ship units.
Without them showing anything working, how are they supposed to accomplish this in 2 weeks time? So again bbxx has very valid concerns. Not that they will scam people, but they might be delayed. Or they intentionally misled people with the September date, since most people will think beginning of September. And with no working demo unit, and no word from KNC themselves, this might very well be the case.
That's strange that you're saying they didn't reply. I've emailed them 8 times and they always reply within 24 hours. I asked them questions about September/October shipping at one point and this is what they said. Maybe it will clarify for you: Me: I can expect the Jupiter to arrive at my home in September of 2013, as your website states, is that correct?
KnC: New paid orders are expected to be shipped in October as stated on the web page. Be aware that your queue placement is based on payment date, not order date. Every order that has been paid for will ship as soon as it is produced. We do not batch ship our products.
Me: Thanks for the response. I ordered a Jupiter. The site says September: https://www.kncminer.com/products/jupiter Just want to clarify that shipment of Jupiters does indeed begin in September.
KnC: That is correct, first shipments are expected to ship in September. With the current queue new orders are estimated to ship in October.
KnC: Your order 4092 is now paid. The expected shipping for orders paid this week [It was the week of 22 July] is October.Also, Sam from KnC stated (and Marcus confirmed) in the interview that Bitcoinorama conducted that they will likely be able to produce hundreds of units per day (read near the bottom of that post). |

Wow. This thread has turned into what you get when  LOL! SHITTER'S FULL! Classic. I still watch that movie around Xmas every year. Hopefully my KnC miner is here before Xmas, or IT will be going in the shitter... |

slush. It got props for being mad consistent as far as marketshare on a review somewhere recently that I can't seem find for you at the moment. I'm not sure why consistency of marketshare is a good thing, but I'm a n00b, so maybe somebody else knows.

Think of mining as payment processing in the fiat banking world (that's done by gateways and payment processors). BTC miners process transactions by using specialized hardware/software, use their electricity to do so, and in turn are paid a reward.
