Look, any business you start that has a chance of actually making is needs seed capital and/or customers. 5000 EUR is failure capital. No customers is just failure.

You have no money, you don't pay engineers, you don't have a product.

Show me the money and I'll revise my assumption of FAIL.

What do you mean by 5000EUR is failure capital?

How do you run a business for more than a year with, allegedly a full (yet small) team, have no business that's been declared since late 2011 and only 5000 EUR in capital.

Answer: you don't.

How do they live, how will they pay ORSoc for the "alleged" work?

It looks either scammy or like another failure waiting to happen.

Don't take me wrong, I wish them all the best if they're legit, but if they are, they're more setup for failure than success.



I didn't know this. I didn't know that their sperate business had not filed anything. I assumed you meant 5,000EUR as the price for a miner which confused me. I didn't see the link with capital contained within that other entity.

I presume you speak Swedish to be able to determine this? Could you drop them an email and query?

Not yet, but they have offered to hold an open day.  That will give us a chance to understand how they got to where they are.

The certificate shows inter alia business name, registration number, date of registration, address of the enterprise, officials and the signatory power.

The articles of association contain information regarding inter alia the business name, the registered office, the share capital, financial year and possible important exemption clauses.

Yes, point 1 - 8 and 10, 11 are that. Point 9 is the meat of the General Assembly and is totally mundane (read useless) unless I missed sth.

No actual accounting numbers, no exceptions to tax rules I could see.

These two guys would have to be pretty close to have their wives(?) as deputies. Yet on all the social media outlets I've viewed, they've only recently started following one another, sans conversations.

I've already shown via the lack of a Google cache there were no Google+ accounts of them prior to this KNC entity, but once moving forward, two accounts were created that until recently they only followed each other with no others in the mix.

The last activity ORSoC had prior to this Bitcoin endeavor was in August of last year. I'm sure that anybody coming along wanting them to help build some mundane part for the exchange of juice, they would have obliged provided, of course, they're not the ones really behind the project, for they have bitcoiners in house.

As it appears now, done of all this makes any sense. Reread their last newsletter and tell me how it wasn't contrived via reading this forum, ticking all the right buttons, one of which being the term "blade(s)".

Think of it , would the viewing of the FPGA miner worth your time and expenses, but for those in Stockholm may be,
 if you don't get to see a working asic chip?

That would be a start. In the absence of ASIC miners, their FPGA is priced interestingly. BUT it might also be a honey trap to attract investors' money for their non-existing ASIC....

The company is too "light" for my taste.

Easy solution to all this risk assessment. Why not ask KNC to list payment through Bitpay?

I'm under the impression that their public agreement with Orsoc is  sufficient proof that this is legit.  The GHash/s is comparable with Avalon (approx 50MHash/s/$) and I'm planning on purchasing.

Does anyone have any legitimate concerns that should dissuade me from purchasing?

My thoughts on kncminer:

There are a few green flags and no red. Their corp site looks like poop. Don't mind them focusing on the hardware over implementing Twitter bootstrap. Excited.

Because Paypal funded by a creditcard is a far more sensible option for buyer protection. Bitpay offers none.

Great problem solved then right? And I'm sure being able to pay through Bitpay as an option doesn't hurt

P.S. first hand, I had coins refunded by Bitpay by a fraudulent supplier that they listed. Got a personal email from Tony and within 48 hours had my BTC returned.

I've just looked on their site and watched their promo vid. Plenty of protection for the seller and no chargebacks, nothing mentioned aside protecting from identity theft for the buyer, certainly no payment protection that I can see, unless you can post proof otherwise?
