Well, while not a scam the whole HPC work part didn't took off sadly. From what I understood they didn't found clients.
The HPC software (made by ckolivas) is ready though.
Our HPC Client is complete and deployed with our game partners now. However, it only gets 85-90% of the hashrate that cgminer can.
We haven't launched a version of the client on the Protected Pool because we don't currently have paid HPC work units online. It still looks like we're a month or two away from finalizing the deals and getting these jobs online, at which time we'll be asking everyone to make the switch. Until then, we'd prefer you all keep hashing with whichever software gives you the highest hash rates.
Sorry for the delays! It seems like our offering is different enough from existing competitive services that most HPC software needs some revisions to work in the Bitcoin mining world, and this has slowed us down a bit. HPC customers usually expect perfect uptime and full control over the machine/instance, so we're working to change the way they think about their problem: that paying one quarter of the gpu-hour price of competitive services, but renting twice the number of machines, will cut the price of HPC compute in half while still having the redundancy to deal with limited uptime and incomplete work units.
If you know someone who is interested in renting hundreds of GPUs and running OpenCL or CUDA kernels across them all simultaneously, PM us and we may be able to work out a commission or finders fee.
