Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Probably has no good news and doesn't want feel the wrath of 10-15 angry investors whose money was more or less stolen.

How fucking hard is it to throw some units into boxes and send them out to their rightful owners.... jfc, incompetence...

Hi,

First of all I am sorry for my absence. I have been avoiding telling this embarrassing and personal story. My life is in complete disarray. I lost my job, am being evicted from my duplex and the commercial property I rent. I have been really stressed out and depressed about everything and have had a tough time with it. This is why I have been away.

The power was shut off at the hosting facility and I was looking for a place to host the equipment. Unfortunately I am moving in with a family member and there is not space for the mining equipment there. I am already hosting other Bitcoin mining hardware and the washer/dryer hookups in the place I'm moving into are in a garage and it gets real hot here- so that's out of the question.

I haven't touched any coins that were mined and your hardware is in my possession. I would like to ship your hardware to you. If you absolutely cannot host your equipment, then I may be able to host a small amount of equipment. Please get in contact with me with your shipping information. I literally have $200 to my name, I will need you to pay for shipping. This can be done via Paypal so you can charge back if you are worried about getting scammed.

I am truly sorry for what has happened. As always, I had the best intentions things just went south really fast and there wasn't much I could do about it. Again, I am sorry for my absence there is really no excuse for it. I should have came here and told you guys what was going on immediately so that it could be fixed. I am sorry you guys have missed out on mining time. I hope that providing free accessories will help you out, its the least I can do. Please arrange shipping through my personal email. Things are crazy, but I promise to get back to you within 24 hours. The email is WillconnatserEIGHTYSEVEN@gmail.com (change eightyseven to the numbers 87).

PS: Smoothie - I hate to be unprofessional even more, especially in light of the past couple weeks and the people that have been wondering what's happening with their equipment, but Smoothie seriously you spare no effort to kick me when I'm down. I'd appreciate it if you'd stop stalking me, it is getting creepy. I know you like to throw a jab at me whenever possible, but seriously fuck off. It looks bad on your part seeing as though you are a competitor in a competing side business (physical litecoins.) Ever since I announced I was going to make my physical Litecoin you always find a way to publicly criticize me in some way. Most people that have followed physical litecoins know the history in between you and me, some of them have probably read the flame wars, and realize how you are biased in your opinion about me or should I say how you wish others to perceive me. I strive to deliver what I say I will and I have all intentions of doing what I say I will do. Unfortunately things don't always work out the way you plan.

Calling it as I see it is not kicking you when you are down.

Ask all of your customers here in this thread. I just called it as it was.

Although you may feel I am "stalking" you, that couldn't be further than the truth. This is a public forum. If you want privacy you can always go elsewhere to have your discussions.

You basically left your customers hanging by your actions and your own admission. Not cool. Lost mining time is irreplaceable unless you give them faster hardware to replace that lost mining time.

As far as being a competitor by your own words you are no longer going to be supporting litecoin or making physical litecoins per your post here:

Hi all,

Due to a conflict of interest I will no longer be making physical Litecoins and am abandoning my plans to make future editions of physical Litecoins. I am planning on continuing this venture, but I will no longer be minting physical Litecoins.. it will be for other cryptocoins. The main reason for this is that I have lost all interest in Litecoin and no longer see it as a good investment. It has taken me a while to get to this point and there is really no one reason in particular, but a few things stand out above the rest. I brought up some ideas to the community and the Litecoin developers about building a protocol on top of Litecoin, and was largely ignored and patronized. There is a very dangerously lethargic mindset that seems to be a common way of thinking that exists in Litecoiner's heads, or at least the ones that visit these forums. I think sitting at number 2 atop of the cryptocoin leader board has gone to most of their heads and most of them think (I actually saw someone type this today) that Litecoin is too big to fail.

The idea that all Litecoin needs to do is promote itself and doesn't need to innovate and add new features is deeply flawed. While Litecoiners are too busy worried about promoting themselves, other cryptocoins are developing massive innovations that will rock the foundation of cryptocoins as we know them today. While Litecoin sits back and makes mostly insignificant improvements along with security updates, there are some new players in the industry that are doing really amazing things that add true intrinsic value to the cryptocoin space. Simply put, a faster block speed (which is basically the only useful thing about Litecoin) is starting to look less like a good selling point and more like every other copy cat coin in existence.

When I got involved with Litecoin almost two years ago, I was certain it would become more popular and valuable as a safe haven for GPU miners, and I was proven to be correct. However that effect has come and gone with ASICs being released this year and the GPU miners are jumping ship to other coins. There is really no reason or use for Litecoin anymore, and I can no longer say that I am certain it will grow in popularity and value. Other coins have fairer launches now and other coins have faster or similar block speeds. There is nothing that sets Litecoin apart from the other ALT coins as being a sure bet any more, and I am very worried for its future. Especially with the current development team that doesn't see innovation as being important, along with the community that shares that sentiment. It is for these reasons I will no longer support Litecoin. I have thought very hard and long about this and I feel bad about doing this, however I cannot support what I don't believe in... that's just not me.

Thanks for the few people that supported my endeavors here with CryptoVest, it will always be appreciated. Thanks to those of you that I had very good conversations with over the years on these forums. Thanks to Litecoin for helping me get my feet wet in the cryptocoin space, and coincidentally helping me meet new friends that I will have for the rest of my life I'm sure. Feel free to contact me through Bitcointalk or my personal email willconnatser007@gmail.com  -> Replace 007 with 87 though

I am very excited about the future of cryptos and I will stay heavily involved with the cryptocoin community as I have in the past, but I will no longer spend most of my time and energy on Litecoin.  

Thanks again to you all and take care,

Will

Coinhoarder:

I actually backed you up here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=616501.0

I believe I was very fair in my assertion about you and did not make any personal attacks. As I said before, called it how I seen it.

If you can't handle the truth, that's not my problem.

Has anyone received their units from CH?


I've been in contact with him but he's pretty spotty.

First, I suggested paying for shipping using the Bitcoins my units already mined. He said it would take 4-6 days to convert those to USD, so he'd rather go with Paypal.  Huh < MRW when I remember that Paypal also has a holding period??

Anyway, I sent payment. That was a week ago. No e-mail confirming they've shipped, no tracking details.

Just put a paypal claim in. What was the point of even using it if he could have already shipped these units with the same Bitcoins they mined?

I pretty much have given up, and don't ever expect to receive my units.

I emailed him with my address, but have not heard back from him at all not even with request for shipping fee.

The first people that contacted me and paid, your stuff is on its way as of today. Sorry about the delay.. life is crazy right now. I will write some assembly instructions and post them here. Make sure to read them.. I had a customer brick his units by plugging in 5v power into the Gridseeds.

- If you have emailed me and not heard back from me, you will hear from me today.

- If you emailed me and don't want your stuff shipped back and want it hosted. I will have your things back up and running within the end of the week. I apologize for delay.. I'm still moving.

- If you opened a Paypal dispute, I cannot send your stuff to you I apologize. I literally have $0 in my pocket and my bank account is negative, I cannot cover your shipping. When you open a dispute, Paypal freezes the money. Email me to work something out.

I am giving you guys all accessories at no costs, and 1 special edition physical litecoin (worth ~$15 each unloaded on Ebay) per Gridseed you ordered (until supplies last I am not sure I have enough to do 1-1 for everyone.) I have these left over from people that didn't pay for them after the auctions. This is the only way I can somewhat make up for this as I have no coins or cash. I hope you appreciate it... as I have definitely lost a lot of time and money in this as well. I wasn't making much of anything selling these Gridseeds as it was- hosted units I literally made nothing after paying for accessories and was planning on making money from hosting fees. That obviously never happened.

I am going to take a long hiatus from the cryptocoin community after this is cleared up. I will not continue any businesses I have started, I need to eliminate stress as much as possible from my life. I admit I am young (27) and still have a lot to learn. I have made some mistakes and I am sorry about that. I wish things would have gone better, but it most of it was out of my control. I literally do not know how I am going to eat tonight. I am now living with my sister, first night here she's like "I'm seeing this guy and he's gonna stay the night tonight." I'm thinking to myself... fuck my life. I told someone in email, but since I delayed even more I will explain it to you publicly. I have been having problems with depression the past 6 months or so. It has been hard for me to live a normal life, it is why I lost my job. I have suffered with depression off and on my whole life, but lately I have been the worst I've ever been. I would totally kill myself right now if I didn't have a family that would be devastated. I can't do that to them... I need to learn to be strong and teach myself how to be happy again. I have been going through some really tough times, all I am asking for is a little understanding.

Please just have patience and this whole thing will be fixed shortly. I am still moving.. no A/C at my old place or the warehouse in 90+ degree weather... by myself. This is why I have been slow to respond and send everything back. I will try to make an effort to be better about responding etc so we can get this cleared up once and for all.

Thanks.

Since you are going to take a hiatus I figured I would ask if plan to tie up all loose ends including this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=289668.0

It has been 9 months and counting. Just asking.

The first hardware shipments should be delivered, I need to give some assembly instructions...

THE POWER CABLES PROVIDED ARE FOR SCRYPT MODE ONLY
- You could start a fire, very important.

1. Plug in the USB cables into the Gridseeds. I recommend doing this first as it's a tight fit. IT may seem like you're going to break something.. don't worry about it, after plugging in 70+ I didnt have anything break. You can shave off a little bit of the USB connector with a Dremel if you insist on a better fit. All I did was insert them at a bit of an angle and push them down.

2. Plug in the Gridseeds to the USB hubs. IMPORTANT: If you need more than one USB hub, the 2nd hub (and 3rd if needed) must be plugged into the first hub. Do not try to daisy chain them, it will not work.

3. Plug in the power to the Gridseeds and USB Hubs. IMPORTANT: If you see a red wire, that barrel plug has 5v power on it which is for USB hubs ONLY. The barrel plugs with yellow wires can be used for Gridseeds. DO NOT confuse the two, red must go to only USB hubs (you can rig it to power the Pi as well), yellow must go to Gridseeds. You can fry your Gridseeds or hubs by doing this.

4. Put the SD card in the Pi, then plug in the 1st USB hub to the Pi (the USB coming out of the back of the hub).

5. Check all connections... make sure the Gridseed fans are spinning and the USB hubs are on. Then plug the power cable for the Pi into a powered USB slot.

6. Log into your router and find the IP address of the Pi.

7. Point your web browser to the IP address and on the left click update to see if any firmware updates are available.

8. Enter your pool information and click "save and restart mining process" (or something like that.. can't remember the exact words).

9. You should be up and running. If you are having stability problems, in the settings you can set it so it restarts the mining process at a set interval. This should solve your stability problems.

I received all my units from CoinHoarder on Thursday, and they've been up and hashing since. Plus, he included a Raspberry Pi, SD card, USB hub, USB cables and power adapter cables which are very handy!



It's unfortunate that this had to play out this way, but I greatly appreciate this resolution.

edit: I forgot the cryptovest coins, I received those as well and they are very cool.

Since you are going to take a hiatus I figured I would ask if plan to tie up all loose ends including this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=289668.0

It has been 9 months and counting. Just asking.

It seems Smoothie's life mission is to ruin my reputation. I think I am doing an OK job of that on my own Smoothie, I don't need your help. Tongue

GFY

1. You mad bro?

2. It was just a question. No need to get in a hissy fit.

3. Concerning your acronym, no thanks. I do not swing that way. But Goat might take you up on that offer since he offered the same thing to me just the other week.  Grin Grin Grin

4. So can you answer the question like a legitimate forum user or will you just keep dodging the issue?

5. Nice try to make me out to be the one who is in the wrong here. Clearly all I've done is call things as I've seen it. All you have done in response is to whine and cry wolf that I am stalking you and attacking you. You and goat sure appear to have similar traits. You aren't related are you? Tongue

Grow up Smoothie, aren't you like 30+ years old? This is ridiculous... As I've said 10 times now (maybe more)- I will pay off the loan and bounty as soon as I am able. I didn't feel the need to repeat myself, especially to you. I am broke and in debt to a couple people in this community. If I had money to pay them then I would, but I cannot. You bothering me about it all the time doesn't change anything- just because you make a post on here (and in at least 5 other threads over 2 forums in the past month or so) doesn't magically grant me the ability to shit money out of my ass. Maybe you don't understand... I am sure you are pretty well off from you crypto investments and selling overpriced coins, unfortunately I cannot say the same for myself. I couldn't go out to eat if I wanted.. all my money is in groceries in fridge or in my possessions, most of which I am selling to get back on my feet.

I am a freaking broken depressed individual right about now and things have not been going well. So what do you do? You go around and rub it in my face all over. That is just a very mean spirited thing to do and I am sure you have no heart. You are not even directly involved and have NEVER supported or purchased anything from me- EVER. You make it seem like you're some white knight rescuing the helpless from a terrible tyrant, when in actuality your actions and what you say about me stem from some kind of hatred you have for me. Why should you give a shit about all of this? Were you affected by any of it? NO... I know you're going to come back with some bullshit like "because I really care about people getting scammed" or something, but you and I both know this is personal for you. Otherwise you would be posting in one of the other million scammer threads and trying to help those people out. Yet, you only come here and harass me. I think part of your hatred from me stems from me pointing out that you are making a killing on your coins, and now it has been exemplified now that I came out that I no longer support Litecoin. Just please admit these are the true reasons why you harrass me, it is quite obvious although you try your best to hide your true reasons.

I have now ignored you, I should of done it about 2 years ago. Good day.

The first people that contacted me and paid, your stuff is on its way as of today. Sorry about the delay.. life is crazy right now. I will write some assembly instructions and post them here. Make sure to read them.. I had a customer brick his units by plugging in 5v power into the Gridseeds.

- If you have emailed me and not heard back from me, you will hear from me today.

- If you emailed me and don't want your stuff shipped back and want it hosted. I will have your things back up and running within the end of the week. I apologize for delay.. I'm still moving.

- If you opened a Paypal dispute, I cannot send your stuff to you I apologize. I literally have $0 in my pocket and my bank account is negative, I cannot cover your shipping. When you open a dispute, Paypal freezes the money. Email me to work something out.

I am giving you guys all accessories at no costs, and 1 special edition physical litecoin (worth ~$15 each unloaded on Ebay) per Gridseed you ordered (until supplies last I am not sure I have enough to do 1-1 for everyone.) I have these left over from people that didn't pay for them after the auctions. This is the only way I can somewhat make up for this as I have no coins or cash. I hope you appreciate it... as I have definitely lost a lot of time and money in this as well. I wasn't making much of anything selling these Gridseeds as it was- hosted units I literally made nothing after paying for accessories and was planning on making money from hosting fees. That obviously never happened.

I am going to take a long hiatus from the cryptocoin community after this is cleared up. I will not continue any businesses I have started, I need to eliminate stress as much as possible from my life. I admit I am young (27) and still have a lot to learn. I have made some mistakes and I am sorry about that. I wish things would have gone better, but it most of it was out of my control. I literally do not know how I am going to eat tonight. I am now living with my sister, first night here she's like "I'm seeing this guy and he's gonna stay the night tonight." I'm thinking to myself... fuck my life. I told someone in email, but since I delayed even more I will explain it to you publicly. I have been having problems with depression the past 6 months or so. It has been hard for me to live a normal life, it is why I lost my job. I have suffered with depression off and on my whole life, but lately I have been the worst I've ever been. I would totally kill myself right now if I didn't have a family that would be devastated. I can't do that to them... I need to learn to be strong and teach myself how to be happy again. I have been going through some really tough times, all I am asking for is a little understanding.

Please just have patience and this whole thing will be fixed shortly. I am still moving.. no A/C at my old place or the warehouse in 90+ degree weather... by myself. This is why I have been slow to respond and send everything back. I will try to make an effort to be better about responding etc so we can get this cleared up once and for all.

Thanks.

Okay thanks for clearing that up. You are not going to pay out the bounty anytime soon. Time will tell if it ever gets done.

Why haven't you sold the coins I asked you to yet to pay for shipping to me....?

Alternatively, send me the coins that my units mined, I'll sell them myself, and then pay you with that.

The address is still showing the same balance https://blockchain.info/address/1NoSqFgsexazNDncU1ArWnBA7fewrtaFnR

CH,

If you're going to lurk, at least give me an update on what's going on with my 20 units. It's sort of rude to come on when you see a new post asking for information, read the post, and then log off.

What do you need me to do to get these shipped?

ftpking,

You are right I should of responded this morning I apologize. I actually had someone to help me move today, so I needed to take advantage of the help while I had it. It is for that reason I wouldn't of been able to do anything until this evening anyways, so I didn't feel the urgent need to respond I guess.

I agree I have taken a ridiculously long amount of time to pay out the mining earnings, and I apologize for that. I got a lot done today as far as moving (I have to be out by Friday), so I have tonight and at least tomorrow morning and afternoon to tend to my group buys. I really wish you would have just sent me the Paypal like I suggested and not done a charge back on me. I think you would have already received your equipment. I think maybe it was a blessing in disguise though, because I realized due to the amount of equipment you have I need to split it up into two boxes and shipping will be more than I thought and I have no money to cover it. I will find out exactly the cost tonight and I will email you about it.

Some things I plan on getting done this evening and tomorrow:
1. Make past due payments for mining income for all of my group buys.
2. Get the equipment that I am still hosting up and running (mainly for other group buys and only Gridseed customers that can't host their units). This has been challenging for me because the place I am moving into the dryer socket is in a 100 degree shed outside, so I can't use it to power all of the equipment. I am having to find people to host them for me as a temporary solution. A more permanent solution will need to be figured out though, because I can't expect my family to host these things forever due to the noise, heat, electricity, etc.. I didn't mind all of that, but I know most people would hate for their home to sound like a jet engine 24x7. I don't really have a good solution yet but something will need to be figured out.
3. Update the private forums for the other group buys.

Sorry again,

Will
