The extra hash rate is great, for people who got the miners early (1st/2nd day received), but for the people that are getting it late, we are screwed. All that extra hashing rate is just raising the difficulty even higher for us. We are not likely to see ROI+. For all of our sake, I really hope the price of BTC raises a whole lot more (which it seems to be doing the past few days).
As you know I like to point out things getting lost. This time it will be pro KnC since 99% of all post are contra KnC.
Concerning your quoted statement, you did not consider the following:
Higher hashrate increases difficulty, but in the same moment have have more GH/s on your own, so your %-share does not suffer from it.
It's resulting in pushing older hardware faster out of the network while you still have your part, so it's actually an advantage against other manufacturer's customers as your %-share may increase. In addition, power consumption is decreasing, so you can run it way longer than though in first place.
With 550GH/s of your Jupiter, you still make 1 BTC a month when diff reaches 8.675,00M (equals more than 62PH/s).
In case you bought a mining device, because you had some money left and you have fun with running, monitoring and troubleshooting hardware&software 24/7 - great you will be very happy about your decision as it returns sth. instead of just consuming money.
In case you bought a money-printing machine making you rich in no time, no manufacturer will be able to satisfy you ever and you should sell your order.
Those unhappy with hosting should ask themselves whether there wouldn't be any downtime at all when running miners on your own - as well as whether you would have achieved a higher hasrate during this timeframe.
I can feel your anger as well as fear of loosing money.
I felt the same not long ago, but since they have achieved to run it with more than 500GH/s and at the same time with even less power consumption AND delivery close to original time frame: I'm very relaxed, confident and happy about my geek-porn investment. I cannot imagine that it works out that nice for Hashfast/Cointerra customers, too. Let's see.
In addition, first compensations had been passed to customers, show me another ASIC manufacturer doing so!
And if you're that unhappy about your order, what's about selling it with a profit margin so you can relax?
Yes, I know KnC has room for improvements, but I'd like you to ask yourselves how it would work out for us in case they decide 'those btc-miner ppl are too stressful, messy and rude, c'mon let's do sth. else.
