KNC, 100% of their hashing is currently going into their own pocket.

Gmaxwell is right.

Likely not going to happen but it would be nice of them to do testing in the testnet.

He's right, and wrong, at the same time. A real heisen-comment

See, there's a large difference between a proof of a single working machine for all to see, and mining months and months with customer machines (Avalon), and flat out lying about shipping times, delays, inventory, really about everything (BFL).

gmaxwell is just nitpicking here. He should know better.

OP bored ?  

Being my highly respected dev, I really think you should not bother with all the messes in the custom hardware wild west

[RoadStress]

I find is strange that Moderators like gmaxwell are taking this path. I thought this forum was neutral to everything and let user decide for themselves. What do you have to win here by doing this? There must be something since you didn't said anything about Avalon mining with customers units and maybe BFL.

KNC is now mining on their hardware, while customers wait for it to ship:

http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/17Czc8RVL3FU5T2MLx2zLbRnpfBNgH9vFo

This is, as far as I know, 100% of the KNC hashrate in existence. Pedantically speaking, it means that KNC is violating their 5% commitment.

Testing doesn't involve using the production network. Production mining is unlikely to test finding blocks— whereas testnet, or replays of past found blocks are more complete tests.  Mining on the mainnet increases the difficulty and takes income from customers who are waiting on units that will be late.  Every bit of earlier mining is worth large amounts of future mining due to expected growth.

I do not understand why miners keep funding mining hardware companies that mine in competition with their own customers.

I gave you a negative trust rating because of this horseshit FUD.

then buy them, as much as you can. pre-order 10 TH if you can for 40 $/GH. make my bitcoins safer and raise their value by 500 %.

...i loled

over such a small issue that if it is used as a proof of life ...then its completely justifialble

And then we have BFL the career serial killers & criminals who get a free pass to all and everything

We know that mods cant ban pplz that is theymos domain that has not stopped any of u MODERATING the beast that is BFL.......BFL own u biatch's so take it like the ho's that you are.... lolz

Testing doesn't involve using the production network. Production mining is unlikely to test finding blocks— whereas testnet, or replays of past found blocks are more complete tests.  Mining on the mainnet increases the difficulty and takes income from customers who are waiting on units that will be late.  Every bit of earlier mining is worth large amounts of future mining due to expected growth.

I do not understand why miners keep funding mining hardware companies that mine in competition with their own customers.

Greed.

BTW, KNC will mine the shit out of the hardware before it is delivered.

Sure they will send out the samples to the most outspoken members, but the rest of Joe Schmoes will have to dust off their units once they receive them.  I don't think it will be as bad as Avalon (borderline criminal in EU, US and Canada) since they do have to deal with EU regulations and laws.

The address we see here is just for the show.  So expect many blocks to be found by unknown IPs if they decide to setup solo farms.

Who will stop them from producing more hardware to mine for themselves?  There are no laws against it.  It makes perfect business sense.
Is it ethical?  Of course not. It is like a brokerage house selling stocks to clients and selling the same stocks short by themselves.  Profit from both.

Business men everywhere are all the same.  What they do is limited by the laws of where they operate?
If you think otherwise, you are very naive.

If they run business, they run it to maximize profit.  Period.
If they run a non-profit organization, that is a different story.
