Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

A reddit thread suggested these guys were behind the Web Design;

http://www.bitwize.com.lb/#!/home/

Note: They are based in Lebanon. Where did Cedartec claim to hail from. Lebanon.

P.s. To be fair I doubt Cedartec had anything ever to do with Lebanon tbh, the guy had a German accent. Though if the above Web Design agency are really behind the Cryonic site, then I will reconsider that statemnent.

I think you can probably cut the LB connection right there. I've been in business with Bitwize and they're not scammers. They're cheap so it might just have been an investment (unless some employee is part of the scam, but I doubt the company is).

Full (dis)credit to them for their SCAMsmanship, though. I e-mailed them asking for some proof of their extraordinary claims, and they replied with a rather well-worded e-mail about how they would be sending test units out to reputable individuals, and doing a live demonstration at a pre-announced location. They're certainly still keeping the charade up for now.

Would you make this email public?

Hi, how do you know they are one and the same?

This is important as Crypteks' site was also designed by Bbitwize s.a.r.l based in Lebanon - supposed home of Cedartec...

Yes! Thank-you for posting that. That's where I initially saw Bitwize mentioned a week ago, I couldn't find it after. Wink

So where is the Bitwize and Crypteks -> Cryonics link from. As in how can we be sure Bitwize is connected to Cryonics?

Name of who? Sorry, lost me there.

EDIT: if you mean did I omit a name from them, no. That's their comms in it's entirety. I just removed my email addy. Suffice to say I replied;



I'm a concerned potential customer that saw comments on a forum eluding to the fact the product may be unlikely and that you were the web design team behind the product's website.

Please advise, thanks, A.






and haven't heard back from them...I doubt I will. Lebanon appears to be a hub of these scams though.

I think you're talking about cryptek/cryonics. I'm talking about bitwize (the founder is Badawi, not Fahad sth).

Yeah the CEO seems to have a very unfortunate name: the same as an alleged kickstarter scammer who ran with almost 200k pledges?
