No. That is not how business is done. That is how scams are done.

If you want to do business, kindly provide some verifiable material. Your name, CV, LinkedIn profile, business registration. Advertise your skills. Who are you, and why would anyone trust you with their money. Obviously, you don't really care about getting real customers in by providing good reasons for them. You care about getting the suckers in. That's what all this looks like.

You hear that?  That my friend is the deafening sound of silence.

Very interested in this. Not interested enough to risk my $$ without a little proof of concept first, but definitely bookmarking this for later

Yes, our design team all have day jobs in the defense industry, just as we advertise. So, while we have been working this in our personal time for months, we aren't quite ready to all abandon our day jobs until we learn what the market interest & reaction will be. Some of us have families, etc, and it will be a little time before we are ready to make the jump. I hope this is understandable. It's quite possible that we will need to pursue VC funding in order to get this done, if there are few orders, it all depends on interest, though we've had quite a few interested folks so far. While it may sound extraordinary to some that we've been working on a full custom design, honestly we do this for a living and it isn't all that extraordinary to us. Hence we have been pursuing this for some time. In any case, we only accept Paypal as of now, and I hope this offers a level of buyer protection and security for you!

I can warm up to this. What bothers me, and should be bothering you, is that all job contracts I've seen in the States specifically prevent employees from running a related business in their free time. Government employer was no exception.

I asked this question earlier. You've had some time now. Do you have an answer?

We are currently in a 28nm design flow, and as for shipping date, we are scheduling into a run, but essentially it hinges entirely on the success of our offering. If we get enough orders, we'll be delivering in 2-3 months. If not, we'll have to refund what orders we have taken so far and pursue venture capital, which is much more expensive and will impact our prices. I figure the peace of mind offered with Paypal should help in making the case that we are legitimate. @warzor still working on those 1nm chips...

I hope you realise what you are claiming here is quite extraordinary. Is this a Full Custom design, or a Structured ASIC, and are you using a dedicated mask set or MPW Shuttle. Reply carefully, your reputation will depend on your answer.

Yeah, this is something that makes no sense. I don't know of any reputable business that says "you can send us money but... we won't give any information about our company. Just hope you get what you were going for!"

It'd be different if you were an informational site. But when you are running a business, it's important to make people feel secure with throwing their money to you.

OK, this is pure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_authority

What amazes me is that you think you can get away with it. This isn't facebok or twitter here, you've fallen into the pit of vipers.

And BTW, talking about Argument From Authority, this post makes me a Sr Member, Woohoo, I've been here 10 days!

Agreed, this was a concern, it's actually a non-compete agreement. Fortunately, a Bitcoin mining product doesn't compete with anything we currently work on.

Nice website but no convincing argument about legitimacy.

[crazynoggin]

Right now, signs point to scam, show some actual credentials and proof that you are working on these miners as well as actual contact information and I as well as others might consider pre-ordering. If you are a legit group, you need to give people enough information that they can get their money back if you fail to deliver or bail.

Hi All,

I would like to introduce you to ASIC Technologies, www.asictechnologies.com. ASIC Technologies started in late 2012 as an exploratory project by a small team of ASIC and FPGA chip designers working at defense OEMs and a fab who were interested in the potential of Bitcoin and pleased by the success of the first advanced mining systems. Since development of these chips was our speciality at work, we decided to investigate our ability to develop a custom chip for hashing Bitcoin. As our design matured in early 2013, we grew confident our products will meet target specifications and compete with others in the expanding marketplace, improving competition in a currently somewhat-monopolized space.

It seems that most of the major vendors (BFL, kncminer, etc) have promising designs but are, as of yet, slow to get their supply chains going and products shipping. Our team has relationships with many custom ASIC chip developers for defense applications, and I believe these relationships and our experience delivering these chips to defense clients will assist us in meeting our deadlines better than prior firms.

Please feel free to check out www.asictechnologies.com and post feedback here. I'm a new registrant to this forum, but not new to reading about complaints about the current companies, so i anticipate this post will be moved to the custom mining hardware thread.

Thanks!

interesring!~where are you located?

"ASIC Technologies"? That's like calling a new fertilizer company "Cow Manure", isn't it?

Maybe only alt account bidding. He use escrow so probably he will ask for advance payment for "shipping fees".

RE: Large 9G/hash miner from asic-techno
I bought the miner from asic-technologies.com , Its does do 9G/hash and works great however people on forums are telling me its just a good FPGA unit .

I am not technically minded in regards to hardware but Its great and I have 4 more on order .

From their homepage:

Cases provided by scan.co.uk . E-Q6i – Mini case

They make custom ASIC but use minicomputer case. lol

Well, that's unprofessional.

[J35st3r]

He's selling a "9G/Hash miner". What exactly does that mean?

That it "mines" 9 "G" per "Hash". That could mean just anything he wants it to mean.
And he's very happy running it.

A highly misleading listing, deliberately so IMHO, what BTC miner with 9GHash/sec would describe it thus? This is a plant.
