I was hoping to find a thread about this, I think it looks like a scam, but if I could be proven wrong that would be amazing. They do link to reputable companies, I think I'm going to send them an email and see what's up.

If there claim where true they would blow every competitior off the map, 125TH for 9999 usd, it just can't be true 0,08 usd/GH(2,4% of the copetitors price) and 0,0148w/GH compared to cointerra/Knc or that chineese company with there 2/3/1 TH respective machines thats all around 3-4 usd/GH and around 0,7-1w/GH.

Seriously? Why would anyone in their right mind sell 125 th/s for $10k?

Yes, you have to think of something funny, point your wand at it and say the spell:

There is exactly ZERO chance someone would sell a device like this.  Even conservatively you could mine 10+ BTC PER DAY with it.  So it ROI's in two days???

You would own the BTC network if such a device existed.

I only have a signature because I'm allowed.

Which is why I emailed them. It honestly seems like vaporware, but I'm hoping I can get more info out of them and then see what people here can make out of it.

I am not vouching for this company.

However, it will seem that the technology referenced is feasible based on prior publications:

http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/118485-mit-almost-produces-an-optoelectronic-computer-chip

http://www.mit.edu/newsoffice/2012/manufacturing-optical-chips-0215.html

The challenge is in determining if this company , photonicmining.com , has really effectively prototyped this photonic transistors.

There affiliation with OneFive.com, will be a plus and strong comforter if it can be verified, as OneFive.com appears to make the basic products that would be used. They also have a relatively  impressive  Google pagerank  of 5. In comparison the domain name, Photonicmining.com , which was registered on 28-Feb 2014 and has 0 page rank.

Give them a chance, maybe they are assembling the 500+ photonic super ASICs in the comfort of their apartment?

Lol.

Damn, I bought a few shares on the IPO before checking more thoroughly. Seems like a scam. Is there anyway of getting funds back on cryptostocks while its in IPO?

Very original scam Grin, they would deserve to be paid just for the creative approach they had, my new favorite after cryoniks.com !

Next one could probably be telepathy based, or maybe single-atoms IC like the one from IBM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSCX78-8-q0

By the way it may seem obvious by now but the fact they took our picture and shopped in a light bulb logo speaks for itself, stay miles away from this as it's 100% a confirmed scam and we have nothing to do with that. I'm serious!

Can you increase the RAM in them with Google Drive?

Seems just as legit.
