if this guys court find them guilty they spend much time in prison... According swedish low its around 6 months per case. So around 20 people sued them as I understand, this is 10 years and much soap.
They have an open prison system in Sweden. As long as it was not violent crime, inmates can come and go during the day with an electronic tag. http://mic.com/articles/109138/sweden-has-done-for-its-prisoners-what-the-u-s-won-t

In Sweden, "Before you do the crime, don't even worry about the time".

Any thoughts on getting KFC extradited to the USA for prosecution? In a US prison, they would really be worried about dropping the soap in the showers  Grin

Did anyone take back 3 btc

I didn't for sure! But I know that I saw someone in this thread that wrote that he did it.

No the only way to get some more back is trough the group action against KnC. 2 lawyers from Sweden and 1 from USA.

You realize if KNC goes bankrupt in the process you will lose your retainer ($1,500.00 ish USD) with these lawyers. You'd be better playing poker at a casino! Smiley

And if you lose case you lose that + other's legal fee's it sounded like.  And a security bond.   So if you lose.... wow world of hurt.

And since the lawyers choose to get paid up front in retainer and not out of winnings, they win no matter what.

Well I've been hearing the opposite that they are merged now with another company and hope to control 40% of all bitcoin mining with their 1ckwh or whatever 16nm chip data halls...which is really gonna suck say in 2017 looking at knc with 40% of all bitcoin mining at that point..i will physically be ill on reading such someday (say it ain't so!)

you have a link to what you heard?

....my info is Sam Cole's previous ramblings in the press and their announcement of the merger and such with that other company for offering
stock etc on their www.kncminer.com site with their miners providing depth etc etc whatever they are saying about such using unicorns/rainbows and bar graphs....

I hope you are correct however just saying....make my day point me to something that proves me wrong on what I've heard...PLEASE!


Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Lets play this as a poker game. The pot is $12000.
Your call to win this pott is $1800 (retainer of 15%, might even be lower).
You should always take this call if your chance to win the pot is 1/6 or better. And do you think that the chance to win against KnC is lower then 1/6??
In my opinion the chance to win is mutch better! I havn't any experience from lawyers and the court. But of course there are some risks. Of course there are a risk to loose the case.
But I dont think that KnC wins this 5 times of 6 (5/6), I do rather belive that we win this is 5 times  of 6!

And bankrupt? I will celebrate if they goes bankrupt! But I don't think they will do that.
Some weeks ago this news came: http://www.bloomberg.com/research/markets/news/article.asp?docKey=600-201504290300HUGIN___EUPRX____HUG1916185-1
The name of that cerificate is XBT Provider AB, it's a part of KnC Group (where KnC Miner is included).
And some month ago they got a huge amount from investors.


And if you lose case you lose that + other's legal fee's it sounded like.  And a security bond.   So if you lose.... wow world of hurt.

And since the lawyers choose to get paid up front in retainer and not out of winnings, they win no matter what.

"So if you lose.... wow world of hurt"
Wow very dramatic sentence! But ofc it's true that if we loose the case WE in the group action will need to pay some "fees" and trial costs.
But that amount isn't compared with a "world of hurt".
I have some mail conversation with Joakim Strignert. I asked him specifically about this question. What he estimate and if we count high (everything goes wrong)/your world of hurt is:
We win in the district court. KnC appeal to the next instance, and they wins. In that case we need to pay all of it.
If we count that 50 people joins the group action and the cost are $50K. Each of us will need to pay $1000 in trial cost.

Ofc everyone that consider to join the group action needs to take this in his or hers equation.
A bad scenario will be something like this: Retainer $1000 + trial cost $1000 = $2000
$2000 to win $12000 = 1/6. And as I said before. I don't think that we win this case 1 of 6 times. If it isn't 6/6 I think it is at least 5/6.

For me it's good odds even when we count high!
But I can feel bad for those that however they do they can't take a risk. Even if we got the odds on our side, and even very good odds.

There is no guarantee that you will win $12,000. The courts could still say the max pay out below the requested amount, or better yet KNC could position themselves to go into bankruptcy if any verdict is handed down, in that case the company they owe money to such as their chip builder would get access to the money first then those who sued them would get whatever was left which might work out $350 per person. Is it really worth it?

There is so much more that can happen in the court of law that you end up holding the short end of the stick. This whole idea that if you give someone $1800 that you'll get $12,000 has been done before and has always turned out be a scam. You know what they say about things that are too good to be true right? This is one of those things.

Good luck!

I'm not trying to be dramatic.  But i consider that a significant loss if the group owes this much if they lose.  Also you might talk to "Joakim Strignert" again.... if I read the site right you also are going to be paying "a security bond" if you lose.  Again I could be wrong but I think you are forgetting to add this as a fee.

And  lawyer time is expensive I don't think there is anything that would limit KNC to the 50k.   That is a guess in my opinion.  But assuming they hire a firm get a few lawyers in the room and you will literally burn through money.  Assuming if they lose they pay 50 people 12k that would be 600k approx they would owe.  So I think they will fight hard and use as much legal team as needed.  And if they do lose bankruptcy is a real option.

But again I could be wrong.  The only decent case I dealt with lawyer did it based on settlement no retainer as he believed in case.  So I will admit I might be spoiled or jaded from using a lawyer who did based on results, and not doing it on a retainer.

I guess am a realist and not looking at best case scenario.  I do wish you luck and hope you guys win.

I guess that the best way is if we find a solution with KnC before a trial. For an example, I don't think 3 btc is a fair amount instead of a Titan batch 2. If we find an other solution where they pay some more, I/we might agree with that. In that case, we don't need to go to trial. But if I know KnC enough I don't think they will pay a satoshi more then 3 btc.
If my bound is $8000 and if I'll get $4000 it's still better then nothing. But as you said it's no guarantee that we get the amount we request.

If they put them self into bankrupt, may so be. Then you loose the bound of $1000. If you don't have thoose money or if that amount is too big for you. Perhaps this isn't for you.
And ofc there are other things that could happen. But sometime you need to do some things that isn't what you calculated with. That's life I guess! Smiley Even if I only get $100 back, I will tell you for sure that it was worth it! Because I now that I at least did what I could.

Dude. There's no point wasting your time explaining things over and over to the same people in this thread. They just will not listen. Its like the Alpha-T thread all over again. Some people will always have an excuse to bend over and take it, others will fight no matter what. That's just the way the world is.  Notlist3d keeps going on about the same shit over and over despite being told it is illegal in Sweden to take no win no fee cases. Its also been explained that the court decides what reasonable costs of litigation are so KNC will be liable for the extra cost if they hire 50 lawyers at 50k each.

Instead of doing actual research, or listening to people that have, the same people keep coming here posting the same nonsense over and over. Leave them to it. If they are happy to have KNC shit on them and do nothing about it, it's really not up to you or anyone else to convince them otherwise.

I'm going back to lurking, I wasted far too much time on the Alpha thread and this thread seems to be going the same way.

I am not trying to cause any ill-will.  I just thought it could be a worse case then what was mentioned.   I am not a Swedish lawyer.  I will stay out of this thread as it seems tensions are high and my intent again was not ill-will.

And ofc there are other things that could happen. But sometime you need to do some things that isn't what you calculated with. That's life I guess! Smiley Even if I only get $100 back, I will tell you for sure that it was worth it! Because I now that I at least did what I could.

Dude. There's no point wasting your time explaining things over and over to the same people in this thread. They just will not listen. Its like the Alpha-T thread all over again. Some people will always have an excuse to bend over and take it, others will fight no matter what. That's just the way the world is.  Notlist3d keeps going on about the same shit over and over despite being told it is illegal in Sweden to take no win no fee cases. Its also been explained that the court decides what reasonable costs of litigation are so KNC will be liable for the extra cost if they hire 50 lawyers at 50k each.

Instead of doing actual research, or listening to people that have, the same people keep coming here posting the same nonsense over and over. Leave them to it. If they are happy to have KNC shit on them and do nothing about it, it's really not up to you or anyone else to convince them otherwise.

I'm going back to lurking, I wasted far too much time on the Alpha thread and this thread seems to be going the same way.

I am not trying to cause any ill-will.  I just thought it could be a worse case then what was mentioned.   I am not a Swedish lawyer.  I will stay out of this thread as it seems tensions are high and my intent again was not ill-will.

They will only lose a lot of money IMO , they expect a US style court system but in sweden things are quite diffrent....
a case will take at least 5 years for example.

Hi, there,
I'm another idiot who bought a 2nd hand Titan !

Was running fine for 2 days, needed restarting a few times to get dies to work (they "die" after around 8 hours or so, but always seem to come back after a power down).

Anyhoo, I did a power down this morning and it came back up but one die was still running only 2A so I dropped the voltage and restarted again.

Now nothing comes back up at all. No web interface, no ssh.

I have disconnected everything and reconnected. Nothing. I have no LEDs showing on the daughter board where there previously was 3. The controller appears to boot (red LED on and the green flashes a few time, as does the ethernet LED). But still no net access to the controller.

I am currently downloading the 2.0 image to try flashing a new sdcard, but I thought I'd ask if there is anything else I should be checking.

Also, I have the Titan running on 2 EVGA 750 G2 PSUs. Are these sufficient ? My killawatt shows the power draw is around 1500W at the wall.

I was going to use two corsair 750W PSUs to power a cube each, but the Y cables  I have on the G2s don't fit the Corsair sockets. There is a plastic bridge between 2 pins that prevents them going in. Would it be safe to cut that bridge, as I assume the pin outs should be identical for PCIe ?

TIA

Yeah, and you are the expert on the legal matter in Sweden.. get lost fuckface, the case is on, and there is no way for KNC to get out of it cheaply..

ref my previous post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=170332.msg11399571#msg11399571

I flashed the image to the new card and thank dog the titan came back to life !
I can start breathing again now.

I would still like to put the cubes on individual PSUs though, so if anybody has knowledge of the cabling and pin outs for EVGAs and Corsairs I would appreciate a tip.

I guess I could use a meter on the cables and test that all inputs and outputs correspond, but a guru would be better, plus I might make a v costly error !

Thanks

for the corsairs the Y cables I got from Sweden (used on the 2nd Titan) the usual ....single end goes to the PSU.....the 2 leads from the 2 slots on the psu goes to 1 of 2 ends on the
Y cable.....and those two blend into the 1 that goes into the cubes..that is how it works on my corsair ...assuming you got the 16awg leads with the corsair? model?

as to EVGA's if they are big enough beasts you can do what I did to save getting a 4th psu for the 2 titans in the below quote in your other msgs

y cable setup using some of the knc Y cables (from your questions in the 2nd part of this msg)



my setup of the 2 units on imgur

http://lostgonzo.imgur.com/


whatever a lot of this depends on if you copy what I did you have a big enough and 2 of them PSU's over 1200w ..and again just using the 750w on the 2 cubes and controller remaining

see below reply and my 6 cube and 2 cube arrangement (saved my buying a 4th PSU for the 2 titans)

I too got a 2nd titan (it may ROI in 2 more months ..or 4.5 months total) unlike my no roi no refund 1st batch orig 2 dead die unit....sigh...but I have a SLIM hope I can use
this to maybe just maybe squeak ROI out of it with electricity ..but it is gonna be damn close

If the dies can't come back it has been my experience they muck things up a bit 10mh to 15mh less ...so that when away when I turned them off (2 dead dies 1 each on 2 cubes)

As to the 750w above

I have 6 cubes (3 each) all with full working Dies running full out on 2 corsair 1200i psu's each on a separate circuit (in bsmt I can do this easily) 20 amp 220v w/o issues

I also used the surge protector with them below...it comes with the euro 220v plug from the titan plug to the surge protector you have to get the 220v cable you need
for your version of the 220v plug you are plugging these puppies into..again me I have 1 each on the 2 circuits (3 total for both titan(S) the 6 cube and 2 cube)

it has saved my butt on brownout I mean the really weird kind that flicker like 15x in a 2min period the ugly type THREE TIMES so far ..so I swear by my arrangement
here is a link .....if you have 1 titan complete both psu's on 1 circuit and not paranoid like me ..I'd think that one would be fine

http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-EURO-4-International-Protector/dp/B00006HZ4M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1431864095&sr=8-1&keywords=tripplite+euro

so anyway ....depending on your circuit arrangement the 6cubes work fine on the 1200i corsairs

as to your 750 watt question ...I have 2 cubes on a Seasonic 860w (the 2 cubes with the 2 bad dies 1 to a cube set to off) I THINK 750w with y connectors will work
but others on here should jump on and correct me if that is 'light' on the psu dept for 2 titan cubes.

s ..but if you have like a 1200i or 1300w couple of PSU's ..i think you said EVGA but unsure of the size....you could play my game and use 2 of those and a 750w on the side
with the other controller for the last 2 cubes....saved me from having to get another 1200i corsair...I can get by fine with the 3cubes on 2 corsair 1200i's and 1 860w seasonic
for the controller and last 2 cubes

anyway good luck hopefully you have enough of the proper psu's about from a previous miner to pull this off w/o any expense

oh and by the way good to see flashing the SD worked..I was kinda wondering...flashing a new SD is extreme but it seems to work ok....was so bad with me that when
(ah no longer) knc made updates I ALWAYS just flashed a new SD so I had the old SD I could pop in as a catastrophic failurre..yep ..what happened to you would happen to me
so stopped the auto update .always flashed and viola when it dorked up (and it did) i could toss the old SD back in ..this all is likely moot 2.00 is the last SD image that KNC
will release imho...not sure if others are working on this open source or not ...but anyway I"d flash a spare thou just so you have something to toss in quick if you have a power
reboot and it goes funky again.....good to see it took thou....

Thanks :-)

I have a corsair AX760 and a CS 750 which I was going to give a cube each - but the damn Y cables won't fit. That's what I'm trying to find out, if I can make them fit will they blow something up !

Since the reflash of the SDcard things are going ok
