It's mind blowing that there are still people who believe this will work, when Ken has already admitted his own incompetency. He has clearly come out and said that he doesn't know what he's doing, yet people still think he's going to end up with a product?? This is insanity at its most disturbing level.

Although surely the prefabricated wafers could have major cost advantages because those can be mass produced? Doubled edged sword.
That would be true if you would use most of the die estate. But these wafers contain various generic circuits that can be used for all kinds of applications, and therefore are anything but optimal for any particular application. Its a halfway solution between FGPA and ASIC. THere is also the tooling cost, since these wafers are produced in two phases, most of the layers for the generic easic nextreme process, and then later one application specific layer is etched. Fabs will charge you a pretty penny for that, even if eASIC wouldnt. Then there is the ebeam thing; chips produced through ebeam will be a whole lot more expensive, because its a time consuming operation using very expensive equipment. I figure that will only apply to the first batch though, maybe as few as one single wafer to see if the chip works, and to allow PCB development/debugging. I wonder if Ken realised profitability was bad and decided to switch away from nextreme...

crumbs, this is a self moderated thread so of course Ken is going to delete posts when someone ups pictures promoting competitors hardware as a means to fud the company, so why not take your own advice and stick to your own unmoderated thread? Then again it's probably not as much fun circling jerking with you fellow trolls with fewer people to wind up all day long. [snip]
The pictures illustrate how tragically wrong the arguments used to defend Active Mining are. No one in his right mind would deal with HashFast, and KNC needs no advertising - if those chips were being sold and not mined, they'd sell themselves. I do agree with you in one respect - this thread offers top-notch circle jerks, greatly superior to the feeble half-tugs found in the unmoderated thread. Excelsior!

+1 I think I will write this off as a loss but saying that I still have a bit of hope left. also I have someone who prepares SEC and FINcen complaints for me and will have them ready if the shit hits the fan ( it's quite a long form and questionnaire) ken better get your shit together mate I am not the only one! PS I had someone visited VMC premises in Springfield and he said he could not find it and he also asked in other units but it's quite a big industrial estate so he will be re-visiting this weekend and probably will have some photos as well

If he/she can find a firm called 'Integrity' which has a large sign and US flag in their front car park then VMC is directly across the road from them up on the left. The actual part of the industrial estate the VMC office is in is called the 'Cherry Park Centre'.

Thanks, yeah I've been there a few times recently but the thread isn't particularly active. I see a few names there who frequent this thread and am fishing for possible 'insider' knowledge.
edit: PM'd killerstorm and will post if I have any success getting info.

Hope he makes it!
