@searing,

I only bumped on it today tho.

that's my threads 
we will send test boards to members for testing once available, keep my fingers crossed

Indeed, a one week period should be more than enough from now on to know exactly the situation "scam or not scam"
however : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz6buvT87nX-NuEkfcrNQGg
This channel does not exist...
Hmmm removing the videos is one thing, removing an empty channel is another...
Also ALL pictures hosted on mega plateform are now gone. This is also a pointless act if all of this was legit.

I just don't understand why they kept replying to email even after the sale was closed

There were people who had only been asked to pay a portion of the balance on large orders.  If they were sending out emails to everyone saying it was shipping and people were posting here in the thread that they were getting these emails it makes it more likely they can get those people to pay the remaining balance on those large orders.

But people who paid only a portion of the order will definitely not pay now. Noone has received any email regarding the shipping or requesting the missing balance on their order.
As I said, i'll give untill the end of the week but it's start to be pretty clear what is happening :-/ (in particular deleting EVERYTHING even thing which has no reason to be deleted like the pictures on mega.co.nz)

It’s just now starting to become clear to you??

Is the drama is already started or we just waiting for another twist? 
This will be really interesting to watch really, especially if it really legit. But yeah, big red flag is on the way already so...

This thread will be a lesson to people for years to come. I hope that people will read this thread before making this type of mistakes.

Relax, relax.  Everything had to come down in preparation for the re-branding effort:  Dwarfpod FPGA Miner Mk. II -- better, faster, cheaper.  :-)

DwarfMiner: Episode II - Attack of the Clones ?

Nope. It'll happen again within three months.   P.T. Barnum had no idea.

I dont think this is a random increase.
I'm quite sure that the card do exist

These are either ASIC's or well programmed VCU1525's. You cannot get 7KH from that small board.

The increase just starts when the batch is supposed to be delivered by the chinese factory ? That's quite a coincidence...
If you check the whole trade, at a point there are some comments saying that this is possible because this card is not exactly an FPGA nor an ASIC. It's a FPGA because it has a FPGA in it but it's closer to an ASIC because it cannot mine anything you want due to the architecture of the board.
It has (well it's supposed to) an AES acceleration chip so the FPGA itself doesn't have a lot to do.
The part that is a bit astonishing is the power consumption as it is (well it's supposed to be) 20% more efficient than bitmain crpytonight miners.
Also remember that a VCU is full of stuff which are completely useless for mining because it's not it's primary role.

for the moment
the increase is seen
XMR network global hashrate increase from 400Mhs to 470Mhs in 2 days
ETN network global hashrate increase from 90Mhs to 180Mhs in 2 days
it has to be asic guys again or somebody is "testing" FPGA boards  maybe dwarfminers

It's also indeed possible that bitmain developped a new ASIC. The new algorithm is far from being very different from the previous one so they do not have much to do to design a new chip as the architecture of the board can remain the same.

Any guess what VCU is capable of for Monero mining?

Why would you ask that in here? Go to the discord channel

I am not asking, I am questioning his assumption regarding VCU.

That question doesn't belong in this thread, which is why it was suggested that you ask the question in either another message thread on BCT, or in the discord for the device.

so this is it hu. no more reply.

if i remember correctly, someone said before...they were in driving distance to the scammers ?

maybe you can share their location ?

He asked for their location because they are in Spain but of course they didn'y replied so : location unknown (but btc can check their IP and we can have an approximative location if they didn't use a proxy)
