The dev is long gone. Here's a real project depicted in our WP: http://yutu.co.in/wp-content/uploads/YuTuCoin-White-Paper.pdf (see sig if you wanna invest while pricing is at its cheapest).

just to share an update on m side
after filling an police report in my home country Slovakia back on 4th July 2018
my local police has just denied my claim to be a victim of a crime in writing today 17th Aug 2018
by saying they/police do not see a intention on dwarfminer side to steal the money from myself
my police also advise me to file a civil case in a court against dwarfminer
+ my police wont be any help as they see this as civil, not a penal case at the moment so far
all I wanted from local police is help to confirm the identity of the dwarfminer e-wallet account 001-522142 from epayments.com
by contacting local police -> interpol -> UK police -> epayments

I have also contacted epayments.com directly to disclose the identity of e-wallet account 001-522142
my request was denied due to GDPR protection of their clients /even if 1 of them is our scammer/

so my trust of local police in Slovakia & epayments is now 0

there are still 4 things I need to to ask our community
1) did anybody else filled a complaint or a report to police or local authorities ?
2) did somebody's case reach the Interpol level ?
3) if I can be of any help in your report, just ping me via direct message here or on discord
4) if there is another scam victim in Slovakia, please ping me, maybe together we can persuade Slovak police to look at the case again

and yes I was stupid enough to send the dwarfminer scammer in total 1819e via 2 SEPA bank transfers
so the bigger the damage, the bigger chance that police/Interpol will take a real action

Hmm,

Maybe I should report this to the police as well, I havent bothered yet as I havent seen a point in doing so. But it might be needed to document the money as lost in the accounting.
I wasted about ~0,7 BTC on this Tongue

Seems like you have done some work already, want to share? Cheesy

We (cyberianmine .de) provides hosting for these if anyone is interested. You can order from Bitmain directly with shipping to us, or buy one of the machines we have ordered ourself.

I wonder if these OC as good as the Z9 mini!

anyone bought this? is there any video or proof of not scam
cause is too good to be true, really

Yes I bought it, you can pre-order them from me if you want, and I will send them to you when I receive them...  Wink

Looking at the bright side of things, its only going to take my 16 S9's about 6 months to earn back what I lost, given that I pay electricity out of pocket, and diff only climbes 6% each time..
Haha god I feel stupid Cheesy

There is no point blaming the forum/others for our greed, man up and take it!  Cool
Its not the forum admin's job to protect your money!

That being said, it would be nice if we tried to make it harder for the scammer to cash out.
Any point in releasing BTC addresses? I guess it isnt possible to report scams somewhere so that the exchanges can be aware of funds coming from X wallet?

I see the Dwarf website is down and their youtube channel has been deleted?

Ah yes - the exit strategy.

Seems likely!

BTC moved on saturday as well.. Tongue

Here's my Bitmain Antminer Z9 Mini review if anyone is interested, thanks to Crazydane for the trustworthy watt report @ 750 OC

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et6kIc7xhPc&feature=youtu.be


Thanks, just upped mine to 750mhz as well, seems to be stable!

Im using a 1400W Dell server PSU, which outputs 12.9V, pulling 393W at the wall @ 750mhz.

When i see that they made super discount like that for 20pcs, 25 per cent of the price? i really have doubt now.
My friend wanted to buy a hundred. They offered to pay 10%. This is an prepayment, not a discount.
He did not buy in the end.


Think about this for a minute. DwarfMiner can finance 90% of the production cost out of their own pocket. Why do they need to do this preorder bullshit at all? They could just do a run of 5000 units and sell on a product-in-hand-ships-tomorrow basis.

Again, why would a supposedly legit business do everything possible to look like a scam?

They said earlier in the thread they paid for production up front, as an answer to why the coins are still in the wallet I paid to. Smiley

It's sad to know that Bittman cheated on me. I also ordered a Z9 in the first batch, but it hasn't come yet. I just got a text today ABOUT the cost of customs clearance from DHL. By the time I get my Z9 network complexity will increase and it will not return costs. I will never buy asics again.

What are you talking about?
You ordered a product from a shop with delivery between 20-30 june. They ship based on FIFO.
Today its 23.june and you miner has shipped.

Exactly how did Bitmain cheat on you?

10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Dwarf FPGA – the anti-ASIC on: June 22, 2018, 02:32:53 PM
I'm still praying, as I've ordered 16 of these fuckers..
Did you pay the whole lot?
I bought 20, but paid only 25%. They themselves offered to pay less...

I did pay the whole amount, but they didnt want to sell me more than 4 initially. I should have taken the warning!

Ey OP, if you read this: please return 75% of the btc, dont want to scam people unfairly now do we?

11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Dwarf FPGA – the anti-ASIC on: June 21, 2018, 02:06:30 PM
Ouch. How could people even fall for scams like this?

They can't even afford to buy their own domain and you thing this is a legitimate product? This is why scamming is becoming a very lucrative endeavour for some. Don't get me wrong I feel really bad and sorry for all those who were scammed but come on. I'd expect that people investing in crypto and posting here would be smarter than the average person.

Having a .com domain doesnt give any kind of security.
I'd say my weakness is faith in humanity, and greed.

It's not like Baikal's order process was any better last year; talk to a guy on skype, send btc and pray that something shows up in the mailbox!
Ordering the S1's from Bitmain wasnt a "sure thing" either back in the day.

I think these previous experiences has increased the amount of risk I'm willing to take. And maybe this experience will lower the amount of risk I'm willing to take!  Tongue

I have a feeling that a Bad Luck Brian meme will be in order soon Tongue
You've got balls going that deep  Grin
I went with only 8 but i think that was alreayd too much, so 16  Shocked you are a risk taker

Its a fine line between big balls and stupid! Tongue
If by some miracle this thing works out, I'm going to celebrate Chad style!

I'd say 8 is high risk too, hopefully it will work out, lets pray together!

SONM is awesome!

My goal is to become a level 4 supplier. Cheesy

Instead of waiting for livenet I would suggest you try it in testnet, Crypto mining IaaS is ready for testing.

I think the consensus on this forum is that the Dwarf is a scam product, but lets give it a rest until the shipping date!

I did buy a couple of units, and I will report back if I got screwed or not.
The BTC has not moved from the address I paid to, which means they either:
1. Already have enough money to cashout the production order
2. Is waiting for exit-scam

I will admit I think its a little weird that they are doing a pre-order if they don't need the money! Smiley



17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain launches the Z9 Equihash miner on: June 05, 2018, 10:50:01 AM
So if you bought batch one you get 2 coupons, if you bought batch 2 you get 2X the product?

Indeed, but with delivery in aug-sep.

I would rather have taken the 2x product instead of coupons tbh!
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Dwarf FPGA – the anti-ASIC on: June 04, 2018, 10:18:30 PM
If it's to good to be true it is. People who sent their money have lost it. It's as simple as that. I'll cut my hair if this is legit

Can you please provide proof that you actually have hair. I want to make sure this offer is legit.

Looks photoshopped. Upload your ID.

This is clearly a scam, why are you hiding your face?
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain launches the Z9 Equihash miner on: June 04, 2018, 08:42:17 AM
With the recent 51% attacks on Bitcoin Gold and ZenCash earlier today, I think there is a large amount of these miners already out there.

The Zencash attack was at least 58MH/s so that would be about 100,000 of the latest Nvidia GPUs or about ~ 1450 of these non-mini ASICs.

Most likely with these attacks going on, many of these Equihash coins will have no choice but to fork.

So  what you are saying is that a company/government/someone with money at any time could have gotten secret asics built and ruined these coins if they wanted to, right?
This is what makes GPUs weak IMO. The fact that someone can produce an asic in silence and take over the network at any time.

Am I wrong about this?
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain launches the Z9 Equihash miner on: June 03, 2018, 11:50:46 AM

Could you please quote me where Im linking all these videos? Michael Jackson videos? "Cant win" video??
What are you talking about?

As Ive said earlier, IMO GPUs should be used for fog computing purposes, while asics are more efficient for stupid bruteforce number guessing (mining).

APOLOGIES:  I see it was another individual.  You dropped in shortly after his response.  I "assumed" it was the same person I was talking to.

Please accept my apology?


No problem, I put in a profile pic so it wont happen again Smiley
