Swedish ASIC miner company kncminer.com

This reminds me of when Avalon was supposed to deliver, then didn't for two more months.  I have 3 devices on pre-order so I'm just as anxious as the rest of you, but I don't think a single ASIC company has delivered when they said they would, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

Bitfury was delayed a few days, but they announced the delay well in advance of the scheduled ship date. Communication like that makes all the difference.

if knc announced there would be a delay on september batch and to be shipped on October instead = REFUND GALORE

9:00 AM (local time), September 30.

where is my tracking number?

The worst case scenario would be The chip doesn't work. They have no money to redo tapeout or refund. They don't know what to say, hence the silence.

of course, this should happened. in this scenario, I expect communication on daily basis and finance/performance compensation. sorry to say, but this KNC behaviour is the same as BFL before couple of months.

I can't believe, that they are professionals from Sweden.

I agree that it would be one of he worst case scenarios. But I'm not sure they are out of money. Ppl did chip in quite a lot for their rigs...

But a non-working chip probably means months of delay = noooo

Im calling bs.. what rumor, who said the chips are bad?  Did pizza-man just make it up and blurt it out..

[vulgartrendkill]

Its all very well speculating, but what we would really like is an official answer.  These guys do seem to have been extremely secretive in regards to testing, even after the open day.

I would have hoped for at least a heads up.

[plasmoske]

Well anyhow you'll probably hear something from knc today. It's monday 9am. A fresh new week for them.

Unless they still deciding to play the silent game.

But they seem to have disappeared. Well the main guys anyway. Knc forums - sam / kncminer username. Last active 24/25th. kncminer on bitcointalk. Last active 27th

They must be really busy.

No video of hashing prototype at delivery day
No info about delay

SCAM

Briliantly crafted, well done shillrama

[Phoenix1969]

Toasting to our stupidity on the Tahiti coastline...   not.

[plasmoske]

I'll be laughing my arse off if in a few hours, they produce a video of working prototype and say deliver/pickup starts tomorrow.

Then everyone would be : "oh thanks bitcoinorama. sorry but yeah you're the best man. sorry we doubted you"

Oh how fast people turnaround when money is involved

[Phoenix1969]

will probably happen just that way too

this will happens, if I will receive my miner today.

srlsy trusting pizza-man?  that sounds right what he says...but dayum that would be a disastear and should be expected to be stated from them.  Except the last update said that the orders are now being processed.  However a sperate blurb on here said something logical to the tune of....I"m getting no delivery......there is no tracking number emailed to me!  

That sounds quite logical.  but going on bitbet like "a friend of mine who works their said they fucked up"  that shit don't fly its some 12 yr old kid who wants to speed up the losses process (well I'd like to hope that were the case and he's not being 100 %)

So Sweden's cold and I've switched off from here until I have something to post.

Basically spent the last couple of nights out and about catching up with some girls I know.

Was kidnapped this morning, now at their manufacturing facility, which is huuuge.

Am not allowed to show a lot of the photos I've taken as you have to wear anti-static coats and err clogs of all things. Basically all the jackets are branded, so until I can photoshop blur them out I can only post pics that are okayed prior.

I haven't caught up on the thread, I imaged you've all fallen to pieces. Biomech has just forewarned me you have pitchforks. Because, why? It's not like I have any control over what I'd going on, or your ability to chill out.

Anyway, look what's arrived;



Not much else to report yet.

EDIT; oh and as for the 'active but not posting' b*llocks. I'm in another country, which I have paid myself to come to. I'm not paying for data roaming on my sodding mobile so you can have you hands held on my minute by minute activity. You're relentless, and for the most part freaking me out. What little internet I have had has either been checked on free wifi, or here, I'm now paired to one of their mobiles, which involves standing outside. Which involves security clearance. Seriously when you think about it, it's bleeding obvious.
