That's the laziest shit I've ever seen. You couldn't even cut some aluminum and plop some fans in there - you had to Photoshop the fan grills on?

Hi Kluge,

First of all let me thank you for your time reading our press release. These are the 3D renders of our cases. If you have a look at other mining hardware manufacturers, they do it in the same way.

We will post real images immediately after our cases come out from the factory.

Regards,
Andrei

Before I send off all my bitcoins to Romania, what's the ASIC technology used? Microns? Process? Where's the fab?

There are many announcements (and justified skeptics) here... For every KNC miner there are dozens of Butterfly Labs - or worse - unfortunately.

Hello,

We realise that there are lots of skeptic people due to previous scams around different places but please give us a chance and don't throw words without evidence.

Thanks,

I like the vacation home you're using as a "base of operations".

I guess you are very skeptical about us and there is nothing we can do. Everybody has the right to have their own opinion.

Thanks,

The miners look quite over-priced or under-powered.  120 GH/s for $4290?  At the present difficulty, even if is only increasing at half the rate of the last few months, it doesn't look like it would ever break even even if you started mining on December 1st, 2013.  If you start February 1, 2014 it is terrible.

The more mining companies the better in my opinion, but you have to run the numbers to make sure that the pricing makes sense.  At ~$400 then it could make sense for a February delivery.

We had a high demand on the first 50 units sold on eBay.

Our next generation will keep the same prices but they will have much more power. Right now we don't have an estimate regarding the release date of the next line.

What is the item number on Ebay so we can look up the completed auction?

It looks like they are here:

http://www.ebay.com/usr/black_miner

Completed:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Miner-One-210-GH-S-Bitcoin-ASIC-Miner-Batch-1-/221333972097

Open:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Miner-One-210-GH-S-Bitcoin-ASIC-Miner-Batch-1-/221335689421?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3388a298cd


Even the 210 GH/s at $5899 with a Feb 3-Feb 5 delivery, does look to have any ROI unless difficulty levels off.

Andrei, we're not out to give you a hard time, just discuss the facts, and the more information the better!  :-)

That's not a problem. I am happy because people are interested even if some are skeptical. Also, any suggestions are welcome. We are really open to people's opinions because it helps us to make our company better every day.

I will post some pictures with the unit that the guy from eBay received. Also, I will create a video with our facility where we build the miners.

Thanks,
Andrei

(..) then let’s see the real pictures which should have been used in the auction in the first place. 

The first unit looked a little bit differently and that's why we are not using that picture. As mentioned in the previous post I will post some pictures with the unit and a video with our facility.

Thanks,
Andrei

Stompix, I will answer your questions in order:

1. Yes, you can pay a visit anytime.
2. Cases: Norma
3. Power Supply and Accessories: PCGarage
4. Probably they had this phone number before I've had it. Have no connection with Ovipas.
5. Motel Monza is another business that I own but I think this is a personal matter.

Thanks,
Andrei

If this is allowed in the "Press" section.  Guess I should make a thread too:

"2013-12-13  SANTA IS REAL"

I think is the first news article labeled as scam we had in a while

[Unacceptable]

Wow,Avalon Gen2,really   Your a little late,like Bitmain with 180GH for over $4000.

Please folks,buy these up,I need as many overpriced & overpowered miners in your hands ASAP.

Cause that means when the lower power 28nm miners come out,you won't be able to get one cause you hadn't made a dent in your ROI 

I approve this message
