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

5 Neptunes are just too many considering my current power situation, so refunding the more "expensive, later ones"
and Jupiter possibilities.....

[Phoenix1969]

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.

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.

WHEW!   Congratz!  So, when does the new "Icon A5" arrive? hehe

User sgravina just said the same thing. It is hard to understand the dude. Just a couple posts back. Two people in a matter of minutes saying the same thing. It's not just me. I don't expect him to be a professional speaker, but he's talking to the world and really should at least try to cut down on his accent if he wants people to understand him fully. I'm still baffled where the hell he got the $70,000 figure from??? Why would they lie publicly like that?

How is that a lie, I just said I've known people who have achieved close to that. If you look through the last few pages of this thread there is another one. I took a quick glance through your old posts, and it is seriously nothing but whining about knc for months. How did you get a first shipment saturn and still not do well? It's just whining and whining.

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.

Perhaps someone was looking at their total bitcoins value and had failed to factor in an early fiat purchase of cheap bitcoins.

so I take it theres no hashing/functionality update in here besides the web interface?

[helmax]

so Phoenix how many neptunes now?

Not you too!  I've been on a waiting list for that plane for at least 7 years now. Talk about vaporware. I'm glad I didn't put a deposit down back then

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?

I have no idea. I was basically the "money" in this venture. They needed me and I needed them. Their the experts in building everything, even doing some of their programming. I've been waiting for over a year on this because it was so hard to get the ASIC chips I was told...but they finally were delivered. Having a native Chinese guy on the team who has family in China really helps a lot!

What's up with this new firmware? 99.2-tune? I applied it and I'm hashing 10-15 Gh/sec lower. Oouch.

"-tune" should give a clue.....  tune it! ......every asic is different

Wow... I didn't realize there were so many different Diff estimates, and all so different...
How can this be?

How do you estimate the next difficulty? Basically there are two approaches; either you look at the average hashrate (I know, block generation speed) of some recent period and you assume it will remain constant; thats what most calculators do. Or you try to determine if there is a trend, thats what bitcoinwisdom does. Of course thats not always correct either; currently it predicts another 32% increase, but that will only really happen if the recent trend of rapid growth continuous. If some dark horse organisation just finished deploying a batch, and HF/CT wont ship or deploy meaningful numbers, it may remain flattish until the next retargeting and the other calculators that assume hashrate will remain around 15PH will be closer than bitcoinwisdom.

But given the past 12 months, usually assuming the trend will continue will yield a better estimate than assuming hashrate will remain flat at the current level .

Hey Rick , as soon we have made our first $mill ,Phoniex and I made a pact , we order 2x Icons .........should get a 5% discount .........maybe get to buy with BTC by then ..........you should order with us , may get 10% discount ..................Biggest issue it keeps going up in price ........its now $189,000  and delivery mid 2017.

It's a bit of a bugger I have to extend the hanger again since the Gulf Stream was longer than I thought      

[sickpig]

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.

http://bitbin.it/3iIbl6tA

Let me know what you think.

Impressive.

I'm a newbie in this kind of work but I do appriciate the dataset you've provided. Did you extract this info directly from the blockchain using custom made tools?

After quick glance I've noticed that btc guild, among the big pools, doesn't provide block luck. Have you any insights on the possible reasons?

Wow, great job! Mind if I asked where/how you sold them? Eventually, I'd like to sell mine too - but am not sure the best way to avoid scams.

What happened to the "Swedish ASIC miner company kncminer.com" thread?

I been reading PAGES about difficulty estimates, predictions, news of trading platforms, blockchain reporting.

Can we get back on track?


As difficulty is rising and we are all sitting on our hands waiting for KNC to get off the stick and sell some more hardware its getting a bit frustrating.

The video said they would sell more, is it happening? If so when?

Yeah, frustrating waiting on a definitive answer... but with that video of CES and Alex, I'd say Absolutely! He said late Jan/Early Feb... I believe him!

The safest place to sell them is on this forum on the relevant board.  Make sure they've paid in full with BTC before shipping.  Although members of this forum are amongst the most savvy ASIC buyers.  You'll get more selling them on eBay.  Tho then you risk PayPal chargeback fraud.

Yes! I'm hoping for that too. Previous Jupiter customers only, not Neptune ones!
