10 times efficiency and no open sell, they could command 50% of hash power, getting dangerous, hope other manufacturers could follow up on lower process nodes KnCMiner web site is currently down, so can't find more details there. I'm a bit miffed that I found out about this from CoinDesk rather than by an email from KnCMiner. Are they not offering their 3rd gen SHA256 hardware to consumers? |

Their site is back up but I'm not finding any new information regarding the above.
https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-118This may be a dumb question, but what node size are the Titan chips? |

On another note, I'm trying 1.11 on my Titan now. For those who can't find it, the download link is: https://github.com/KnCMiner/titan/releases/download/v1.11/titan-upgrade-1.11.binInstalling the update seemed to finally kill the included MicroSD card. It's now full of bad blocks. Gotta love seeing a message like this: Block 1 in the primary group descriptors is on the bad block list
If the block is really bad, the filesystem can not be fixed.
You can remove this block from the bad block list and hope
that the block is really OK. But there are no guarantees.
Fortunately I had previously taken a backup of the card. I dd'd it onto a Transcend 32gb class 10 card I had laying around, installed the 1.11 update on top of it, and now it's running once again. So far it's running fine 4.5 hours later. I'll see how it does overnight. |

You shouldn't be. KnC announced that they will end their sales towards customers and they will focus on their own big farm AFTER THEY HAVE DECLARED THAT THEY WILL NOT DO IT! |

This reads like there will be pre-orders again, no ?! However, due to a rapidly shifting landscape within the mining industry we're not able to announce single hardware products in the Solar range for online purchasing just yet.
Whoever sends them money this time, deserves it to be financially raped. |

KNC said it would mine Scrypt-N, but it doesn't yet do so.. In short my opinion is you gave them a loan with better terms than any bank would have since you are getting three machines which you could buy on ebay today for $3,500-4,000 each and they are not even worth that much in terms of ROI. |

KnCMiner is going to stop selling miners to “unhappy customers” and will instead focus on mining themselves. Hot on the heels of Magnus Daar Esq. of Nova, a law firm based in Sweden, stating that KnC’s actions might hurt Sweden’s reputation for other Swedish companies, KnC’s co-founder Sam Cole has admitted to closed and less-than-honest business dealings with former KnC customers. Here is his quote from his interview with Niclas Rolander of Bloomberg:
“When we don’t have these customers buy our hardware it becomes a different business model. It becomes much easier, much more open, much more honest,” Cole said in a phone interview. “There’s still going to be $2 billion, at today’s price, mined in the next few years. That’s a lot of cash that’s up for grabs, and we’re going to do our best to take a decent chunk of it.”

exactly  This will stop 90% of the pre-order whiners that don't know about the Q/1-Q/2 DISHONEST delivery quotes, because they ALWAYS ship the first machine on the last possible day, with or without working firmware. Over a year ago, a couple well-known Trolls refused to believe KNC started working with AllChip on 16NM FinFet technology, and that the first ones would be rolling out in January... ahem... March 31st. What do you think now? |

If you guys are even remotely excited about this Solar crap then and are thinking of giving these jackasses more money then you truly deserve to get your asses burned. 1983 pages of proof must not be enough, so please, keep believing.
