The first rigs indeed did not make $70,000 and I'll keep that opinion until someone can proove it. I don't see how it is possible. Yea, Bitcoin did reach $1k but it certainly didn't stay there.

IF someone who got the first Jupiter, mined with no issues, sold their ~45btc @$1150 then sold their miner for 18btc (and sold right away) then they made over $70k (less price of miner)

doubt anyone did that

Or sold the miner at $25,000 or more. It really isn't out the realm of possibility, just takes a quick decision or two. I know people did it, I know one for sure. Opentoe claiming that it is impossible is nonsense, and calling someone a liar because of it is even worse. He's just jealous that he only got a saturn and didn't buy a bunch of jupiters. Probably didn't sell the thing either.

With all of this hash-power coming online -- when are we going to get an update on Neptune?

We are only 13 days into Q1. My son, you have a much longer wait. Months.

My friends and I bought a large order of ASIC boards/chips and finally everything is built. I'm going from 555Gh/sec to 5Th/sec. And since the electricity is all on a generator paid for by the building owners they could care less filling that thing with diesel everyday. The party starts now! Since I really won't need my Saturn/Jupiter anymore maybe I'll auction it off. Fine running machine.

Lucky you!

What chips/boards did you get hold of?

[organofcorti]

Thanks organofcorti,
I'll be looking forward to seeing your detailed stats
Cheers

same here

Here's a start, each block solved for the past week, blockhash, generation address, attribution and type of attribution. You should be able to calculate whatever you want form it.

on another note...
Good thing no miners here ATM...
My new 200 amp service line took a direct lightning strike last night  
It blew every breaker in the house, both live phases
It exploded a 20 amp power strip, blew my desktop, microwave, and left a
3 inch long exploded hole in the new conduit. It struck on the portion
of the line we had not been able to bury yet. The mains are literally in pieces.
After calling the power company, they come and find that my transformer is also blown.
They patched me into a local transformer down the street a bit, but only one phase
is still working with a huge exposed/blackened hole in the conduit for now until I
can fix this mess. oh boy.  
So far I was able to get a set of dual 100amp switches for the mains and a
microwave oven (Gotta warm that coffee) to get going
Installing all new 2-2-2 in conduit is gonna be fun I have no way of
splicing the hit portion of the service line   do I?

crap sorry to hear of your problems......no I think you are out of luck....on the splice that is....ask by all means of the power company util guys have not problem with it you are probably ok.....(probably still not up to code but....)

anyway not sure what to do .....have more ground rods ?.....get one of them 'whole house lighting strike surge protectors for 300 bucks?.....stuff like that?

And 1.5 months since Neptune was announced, oh great genius of all that is bitcoin. It's time for a technical update, or people are going to start pulling orders.

I'm not going to pull my order in fact I will probably order another, but I must agree a technical update would be the way to go before the end of january.

Hi,

I am using Oct Jupiter with 0.99.1-tune firmware. After I pressed "Reset factory settings" on Advanced tab, I can no longer access Advanced tab at all. Instead I have browser message with "Fetch advanced configuration/status failed." and "OK" button. Restarting, flashing to earlier firmware and flashing back to 0.99.1-tune does not resolved the issue. Jupiter itself is mining away nicely, but I can't access Advanced tab anymore.
Any one had similar problem?

KNC Technical Update: As you can tell by our silence, we are presently still working on Neptune chip design. If it all goes well and we manage to finish it by the end of January, we might be able to deliver neptune by April 2014 (Q2). There or there abouts.

If it isn't finished by start of February (i.e. in time for 2 weeks of new year holidays in China), we will not be answering any phonecalls/emails until June 2014. We will, however, be offering Bitcoinorama as a human sacrifice to angry customers. Just no refunds.

[jelin1984]

any news about 0.99.2 is better from 0.99.1?

[helmax]

depend your machine nov works better

[jelin1984]

how much better?
with cgminer or bfgimner

doubt anyone did that

 Why?  only a few trades... and much better is possible too.
BTC hit over a grand several times.....
I even made $ on accident transferring to/from banks
could have easily been different tho
example... withdrew 3900 a few weeks ago when the price was over 1200
to buy a car which I resold because the price had dropped to around 800 again....
Bitstamp's amazing 18 hour international Bank transfer helped.  
3.2 coin turned into 5  
With any amount of "luck" or skill...  35 coin could easily become 100k....
or you could easily end up broke too... name of the game

btw..   10.57%    12d 4hr 35m 7s    whew... yup. forgot about that

and....
on refunds....

Hi,

This refund was initiated in the new year after the holiday period had finished, which is why there is some delay. I have confirmed that the payment has left our account and is on its way to you. You should see this very soon.

Thanks for your patience in this matter.

Getting cold feet with one of your neptune orders and just buying coins instead?

we ordered 10 jupiters (first batch) got 11, sold 5 for 64 btc each, mined 200, sold the remaining 6 for 190; made 25% profit in btc. thank you knc for best deal of lifetime.
