Yeah, cause there's just so much real world applications for double SHA256, the  possibilities are endless! You might as well go and buy a few tulip buds.

Just like the internet in 1995....you can't see what hasn't been yet created (the amount of available ASICS processing power is very high and could potentially be monetized other than just mining coins)....Plus FWIW there are shitons of people who make a viable living doing stuff that we would scoff at - janitorial businesses, fast food propritors, ditch diggers, and yes, tulip growers.

I'm guessing his tulip remark was a reference to the Dutch Tulip Bulb Market Bubble, rather than a slur on tulip growers.

Tulips were silly, flowers perish quickly, crypto does not.

Historic tulip bulb bubble burn!

[frankenmint]

are we going through a 2013 tulip bubble?  no.  Are there people out there who still grow tulips for resale....yes!  I was simply taking his relevant example and giving an unrelated rebuttal for the sake of derailing KNC news thread even further.. you know that's just soooooo awesome to do and all.

Amsterdam, March 1637 (Ruyters): The latest Dutch tulip harvest is in, and experts confidently predict another bumper year for tulip growers and tulip investors alike. Billionaire hedge farmer Jon Paulsen is rumoured to have added hyacinths to his multi-strategy offering and has just launched a fund denominated in daffodils. Tulip stocks climbed by a few millimetres, as they are prone to every day if they grow at their normal organic rate; Couleren bulbs rallied another 2 guilders in heavy Antwerp trading; Rosen and Violetten bulbs ended the trading session more or less unchanged, albeit a bit squashed, and at record highs. The market has been further buoyed in recent weeks by a tide of manure issued by the leading tulip advocate Pol Kruygman from his op-ed column in the New Amsterdam Times, ‘Witterings of a Tulip Fanatic’. Kruygman promised to keep the manure coming, whether anybody wanted it or not.

When I first saw KnC they were saying a couple of things that I got mixed up for a short time, they were talking about a litecoin rig and modular miners...and for a short time I had a picture of a dual miner, one module mining each ..the litecoins paying the power bill while the other mined BTC.

You're right about people finding a way to use all this kit I think, necessity is the mother of invention.

Back in 1995 Internet exploder was by far the top browser, Chrome didn't exist....no-one would have believed what we have now. Maybe well all end up looking back and wishing we'd been mining another currency that follows the same path as BTC has.

The first browser was Mosaic I think :p. Then Netscape, then Infernal Exploder and then FailFox. Safari was still in Steve's ovary. (wow that rhymed!)

FTFY

[demonmaestro]

This thread is becoming tedious.

Here ya go I will summerize for every one.. bla bla bla roi bla bla bla roi bla bla bla they have not shipped yet bla bla bla.. sounds about right.

If ya care about roi what are ya doing in bitcoin mining now? 

Anywho technally they got till the 15th of October till they are truly late on any of them.  So get off your grumpy couch and go ride a ferris wheel with some ice cream!

[erk]

I am surprised KNCminer haven't shown us a working prototype by now. It's almost the end of September and they would need a few days to assemble all the units promised for day 1 shipments.

Arachne browser.  I offered a canned ham but times they were already changin'.

no chips in hand = no final prototypes.  However that may not be the same answer within the next 2-4 days. (fingers crossed)

[ImI]

Indeed it would be nice to get some details. I honor the way KNC is handling things so far but there news policy could need some optimizing.

It needs just a minute from a secretary and everyone would be pleased.

Have the chips arrived?

If not, when are they supposed to arrive and wasnt they meant to arrive earlier this week?

I have no problems with delays, cause i see them doing everything they can to supply those miners as early as possible, so thats OK with me.

But i would like to stay informed daily in this very critical phase that we are right now. Like i said, one minute work for some office worker and we all know whats going on.

We are in the most crtitical week right now, several thousand dollars have been invested, i really think we all deserve some details whats going on right now.

Its a matter of ONE minute to write a twitter or forum message "The chips arrive friday, saturday or whatever"...
