Lightning miner ! 4ghs 80 usd Wow

[filharvey]

Nowhere on the site that I can find does it say it actually mines bitcoins.  The site says a lot of things, but it does not say that.  

You may end up getting exactly what you ordered.  I'm not sure what Bit Mining is, but I'm sure I can produce a $75 device from my closet that does 4,000 MH/s mining bits of one sort of another.

Ya, but can you deliver it in less than 8 months?

Sure, send me $75 and I'll send you something that mines bits at 4 GH/s today (well, tomorrow, Monday the 3rd).

Can I get the bfl device I paid for last July first. Until then I trust them as much as I trust u and bfl. Same risk in my view

Are we using the same calendar?  Now that is a ship date you can not possibly make... 

Even when joking you set an impossible ship date LOL sorry couldn't resist!!!

Why is that a ship date I can't possibly make?  I assure you with 100% confidence that I can make that ship date.  I'll even do escrow.  You will get a 4 GH/s device that mines bits shipped out tomorrow for $75, assuming you're in the US.  If you are international, you'll have to cover shipping.

accurate dates just aren't your thing are they?

Will you please start making sense?  What the hell are you talking about?

Well a little update on this.,.

I have spoken to their support. Now I will take back some of my statements posted early on. I will give this company the time to send me their unit.

I will be going into testing and I will if allowed to post pictures, videos of the unit then I will do this.. I will be going into testing with this product to actually see if it is real or not. Shipping details have been sent to them and now awaiting details of everything to be sent back to me..

From what I understand I should also be beta testing their mammoth device. So I will also be able to let people know limited info during the beta.

Inaba, tomorrow Monday is the 4th, not the 3th. (Edited the number, as I mistakenly wrote "5th" because looking at date past midnight. Funny to make an error while correcting someone. )

(BTW, as bumping is done, a small update of https://forums.butterflylabs.com/announcements/692-bfl-asic-status-2.html would be welcome, please.)

Tos is same as...

You agree to use Newegg.ca website (the "Website") only for purposes that are permitted by this Policy & Agreement and any applicable law

I just finished reading page one, and may have more to comment on. I think I know who this is, but will wait to see if I read if he's already been discovered.

Probably wise to say something now if you think he's a scammer.  People seem willing to order these things sight unseen.

Have you got anything that connects the two Multiverse companies, Phinn (even Australia has a few companies called Multiverse)?  I don't feel like paying for an ASIC search to find out who's behind Multiverse Pty Ltd, but maybe there's some information that links them.

I think the ASIC guys are probably scammers, but given how little effort Multiverse Pty Ltd put into advertising themselves (looks like they didn't even have a website and they only advertised in free or cheap local stuff), I'm not sure that the guys from Mt Hawthorn in Western Australia are connected with the guys who are supposedly shipping mining gear from the US.

I also find it odd that anyone familiar with Bitcoin would abbreviate it to BC.

No. The ASIC threw me a curve. My first guess was that they're in the UK. Going to research that angle in a bit, but first let's revisit that YT video and see if you see what I see. Note the shadow thrown against the wall. You can see he's a clean shaven young lad with fuzzy hair. Although you can see the shadow throughout the video, the best shots are at the onset: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DD7OjvdQpl8

Does he look like this guy?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I8BPDjUgKI

Atlas is considerably more literate than whoever put together that website.

I can find no traces of any previous website that sold "Lightning Miner", despite the comments section.  In fact all references to the Lightning Miner which I can find on Google have appeared in the last few days.

I bought me a Lightning Miner 4.0 from Multiverse Computers to test it to see if it even came close to their advertised specs. I must say I have been pleasantly surprised by it. Its a small ASIC miner, that has been pumping out about 3GH/s. I have been waiting on some mining rigs from Butterfly Labs, but figured this way I could get an idea of what I will be getting when my 15 Jalapeno’s finally show up. The lightning miner gets a little toasty so I found using a laptop fan works perfectly on it. Like many others have found out leave the front sticker on it those led’s will blind you if you take it off. Anyways figured I would slap up a quick vid of how perfectly a laptop fan works on it. I am already ordering some more of these little guys, but will be adding their fans this time lol.

Apologies for the double/triple posting, but...

They are using Mt. Gox as their payment processor. They may not have to submit any docs to get the funds in, but they sure the hell will have to to get the funds out. I don't believe that MG can shed any light on the subject.

Here's another observation. Somebody tell me how it's possible to order a Lightning Miner 4.0 off the internet a few days ago, when if you Google "Lightning Miner 4.0" (with quotes) all the umpteen results are about 24 hours old. These damn things didn't even exist 48 hours ago, let alone a few days, on any website regardless of its domain name.

Yet, according to their comments page, six different people managed to not only order, but received units and are happily miner their asses off.

[Phinnaeus Gage]

LOL! And now the YT video has been removed by the user. I wonder why. Was it because of my shadow comment?

[CoinHoarder]

Wow, I don't check this subforum for a few days, and there are 2 new possible ASIC options now (if they're not scams).

I hope both turn out to be legit.
