Ignore this, turns out it was a scam!!!





Effective Hash Rate 16 TH/s ± 10%

Power Efficiency 0.15W/GH/s

$1279.00          
In Stock - Next Day Shipping

Seems like a much better deal than an S7 and includes the PSU.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

The news website this was on is a carbon copy of https://bitcoinnewsmagazine.com/, specifically made to plant this scam. It had ~30 upvotes on Reddit before being removed.

I don't blame you for finding it convincing, I also posted a link but promptly removed it after realizing that it was an attempt to defraud bitcoiners.

Not quite. You can still access the clone at http://btcmedia.net/index.html

I have a takedown order in with DMCA so should be taken care of within a day or so.

These phishing thieves are cloning websites and setting them up at Namecheap using similar domain names. Note the impostor has two L's in the name. "Sillicon" instead of Silicon.

They are targeting Wordpress sites because there are tools out there to easily clone WP sites and so far are using Namecheap for domains and hosting. I think they are using Namecheap because they are ignoring my demands to take down the impostor site.

Have you contacted their host and registrar?

From their whois:

Also their host is Namecheap as you said. You can file Hosting & Legal and Abuse reports with them here.

Also if anybody has a contact there, you should tell siliconangle.com do the same.

I let the editor at siliconangle.com know of the hack. I spent $200 filing a takedown request with DMCA only to be told the hosting company ignores the DMCA. I do not think Namecheap gives a shit.

One more scam site hosted at Namecheap, that makes three so far. Whoever the criminal is sure seems fond of using Namecheap to host his scams.

Very complete replica........

The scam is the criminal behind this is trying to steal bitcoin by creating fake ads for an "SP45 Newton" miner and hoping he fools someone into buying and paying with bitcoin. So far the fake ads for the SP45 have appeared on three cloned websites, probably more to come. If you visit the legit Spondoolies-Tech.com site you will discover there is no such miner for sale. In fact Spondoolies has no miners for sale at all at this time.
