Swedish ASIC miner company kncminer.com

Yes. IF you buy your miner in BTC. Buy it in Euro/Dollar and you have to compare.

Makes no difference, you can buy BTC with euro/dollar just as easily. If you cant, Ill gladly sell you bitcoins for 80% of marketprice.

Do you take PayPal?  And is that 80% of MtGox price or a Bitstamp?

I guess that was the big "TA DA" I was hoping for.

In other news....I now have all the whiners and cancelled-my-order-sour-grapes people on ignore...that's a lot of people.
This thread looks like swiss cheese to me.

That is a seriously shit quote for an ASIC Bitcoin Miner  

My thoughts exactly. I wrote some great ones for their slogan competition.
But the fact they liked "bitcoin makes the world go round", I figured they'd go for something twee in the end. And they sure did.

As they are a European manufacturer, annoying to see they used a pun on the Americanism "block". The streets ain't in blocks in Europe.

There were much better slogans, they should have done a short-list and allowed us to vote. But democracy isn't very popular these days - US or Europe...

Reminds of those blinders you put on horses, except a horse would never voluntarily put it on I guess.

GREAT, btcguild is on the defense against DDOS AND CURRENTLY MY MINERS ARE DOWN......75 miles away and no remote access on my end....i hate the unexpected sometimes....and i hate being ill prepared even worse....my own doing dam

It's not like there isn't a constant warning against the pitfalls of a centralized pool.

Brother,  I absolutely and wholeheartedly agree. Until now i thought it's going to be "Hashing like a boss"

[Bitcoinorama]

So in reality it turns out those throwing the shill accusations around, were perhaps shills all along themselves, with their own agenda, being competitors, or otherwise, The only agenda I've been proccupied with is telling the truth. So here it is;

The reason I travelled all the way to Sweden.

We all know the significance of these images.

The only thing that really matters;

I found 'em!

Tonnes, upon mothetf*cking tonnes of...boxes of fans!

You don't have a failover pool or 3 set up? That's seriously amateurish.

That's one way to read into it, if you really want something to be offended about.

I am blown away!  Thanks for the fine reporting Bitcoinorama.

The big question everyone is waiting an answer for: will they ship *STH* *today*?

[Bitcoinorama]

I am blown away!  Thanks for the fine reporting Bitcoinorama.

It's been 'hair-raising' so far!

Was "block" used as a pun? Looking it up... Drat, being a European, I didn't notice, so I took the word "block" at its literate "bitcoin block" value.

@Bitcoinorama: So there seems to be little that is actually mounted and ready to hash, though at least all the components are in one location. Chips, cases, boards, Beagles, PSUs and now heatsinks with fans are accounted for.

Seems like we need to settle for a couple of weeks of delay.

Photo's are a bit fuzzy, but aren't those boxes of heatsinks?

They have fans, and they are in boxes! Sheesh!! I'm trying my best here. You're a tough crowd to please!!

[tarmi]

wow, so many boxes.

so, with so many orders, I am pretty much sure nobody will see ROI.

Thanks for taking the time to show us the behind the scenes of the operations. I am wicked jealous that you get to see all this at a really defining moment for them. It must be just awesome to be around all that excitement. Cheers!

Meeh - I want to see blonde, big boobed girls assembling my miners 

Thx anyway for the update!

Probably more of a double-meaning than pun. American cities are built in blocks, which are roughly 80-120 metres. So being one block away from something is not very far. If you were walking to meet your friend, you might text them and say "Be there soon, I'm only one block away". So saying the whole world is only one block apart is saying it's a small world. The word play is also on the "bitcoin block" value + blockchain connecting everything in the bitcoin network. One block leads to the next etc. Well, that's what I read it to mean.

Impressive. Are those only fans? ANyone want to venture a guess how many fans per box, how many boxes and how many fans per miner, and calculate how many miners this could be used for?
