After reading this:


Who are we?

Axon Labs is a spin-off company born inside a Research & Development Corporation. After months of work, our research team came up with the technology we now use for Synapse Terra miners. As the original company that gave birth to this technology is a research and development hub, we created Axon labs. Dedicated to offer Synapse signature products specifically to the virtual currency mining market.


A bright future

With an incredible interest shown in our products, Axon Labs has set its main goals to develop and manufacture a diversity of high performance products suited for the future of markets. Bitcoin miners are only the beginning of a long and exciting journey!


I feel like family to them! Please put me down for eleventy of them.

I'm just kidding.

- No https AKA Secure sheLL Sockel Layer, which means that this mfg. sent IDs and vetting info to a SSL registrar (tip o' the hat to a kind stranger, Kaega, for pointing out my logic/acronym fail)
- No info, no LinkedIn profile links on company founders

Caveat Emptor!

I stopped reading after they said it was immersion cooling.

Then you missed out on awesome quotes like:

"We are using processors designed and normally used for supercomputers which are not produced in large quantities"
"102 GB/s NOC Bisection Bandwidth"

"Vegetable-based oils can also be used providing the oil is free of debris and has no moisture content"

"Can base units be networked together as one? Theatrically, yes. Practically, no. The computing network of the blades require extreme bandwidth to exchange data between the cores making it unpractical to daisy-chain base units together.".

These clowns are being reviewed on The Scam List

[thejaxx]

R&D Corporation? WTF?!

And these days, most corporations have non-compete clauses AND have right of first refusal or own the rights to anything created/invented during the course of work.

Just my 2cents.

It`s not totally correct. They have a RapidSSL cert from Geotrust. The Cert is a real one but it is exposed for the domain https://www.ipage.com.

scam, it's the same group of scammers repeating the same crap once their ruse is debunked each time.

I'd imagine it's the same people behind 'hashblaster'...

[clenell]

their customer service says they are located in Markham Canada. I should note the customer service moniker used in our chat was "descarte"... same as OP.

What a coincidence, I like your detective work on that point.

did i miss another thread? the OP is asking others to investigate himself? that's a great introduction.

[greyhawk]

The real fun part starts when they receive the C&D from the real Axon Lab

[TechByPC]

Oh come on, I want to see some of this theatrical networking. Like culture for geeks.

nah, I am not one of them. I want to know how everyone sees them before I start investing. If someone in canada can verify their address and people working there, I might give it a go.

[ninjaboon]

red flag.
if they are legit, they'll have an {ANN} thread opened.

I am in Canada and live within half an hour drive.

I didn't see the address but I might be willing to stop by if they allow it and a time is arranged.

Edit:  270 Esna Park drive is an industrial section of Markham.  I have customers in that area and I will actually be around the corner from there on Monday for other business.  I will drive by the address and have a look.  I won't be knocking on doors or any such thing.  I am assuming that address is an industrial complex and has multiple units but the website doesn't list a unit number, but I will do a "drive by" on Monday all the same.

I'm not sure you understand what https is and how it is different from SECURE SHELL (ssh).  But alas, a site should have SSL configured on their site.

[Operatr]

NEVER give your money to an ASIC company that has neither shown their stuff on these forums or even said a word.

These are fly by night scams and nothing more, if you send to them, you deserve what you get, which is an empty wallet and sorrow that you didn't buy from reputable sources.

This looks like the same jokers behind several others.

Don't mind me. I'm a network engineer that's designed multiple LANs for a number of Research Labs (even a MAN), but I'm an engineer cramming for a Security+ cert. Besides dealing w/ the DoD acronym overload I normally have to deal with, I'm busy cramming info - mostly useless info - for a cert exam. SSH, SSL...close enough!  

Thanks for the catch: that should be SSL for Secure Socket Layer (the "s" in https) and not SSH (hooray for Putty).
