my connection home is adsl 8 mb is enough? or i need put fiber 30mb?

best pool advise?

anyone can helpme

your adsl should be enough.

pools? it's up to you to choose the best one.

have you ever mined before? if yes which pools did you used?

if no, a try'n'fails approach should work best.

e.g. if you have more than one miners, use what u think is best pools from due diligence you should have already done.
then point every miner to a different pool. after a while (let's say a day) choose what you think is the best.

thanks all guys i never mining before
i live in spain
dont know if is good pool with latency low

10% discount ... absolutely wrong move - they should finally close orderbooks  

no one will see break even - they have it in their hands and still spoil it - is it so hard to think 2 months ahead goddamn  

[dextryn]

Just got my tracking number!  BOOM!

Order number 3xx day 2

Hey KNC/Bitcoinorama. It's time for an update.

You are still shipping orders 1-750 (or at least the first 750 units regardless of order number). The original deadline for shipping ALLLLLL units was October 15th.

That means in the next 4 working days you have to produce and ship 3000+ orders (ballpark figure).

That's not going to happen. You said that yourselves, that you can only produce a few hundred per day.

It's about time we had a proper update, with adjusted and REALISTIC shipping schedule, based on the state of play at the production facility.

Your pride seems too wounded to tell us why it's taken 9 days and still only shipping day1 units, rather than the thousands that were promised by now.

This "we'll sort it ourselves, we won't say anything until it's done" attitude is costing everyone time, money and unnecessary stress.

Drop the wounded pride/ego and honestly update us.

There are a lot of brilliant people on this forum who could and will help if you allow them in.

Even if KnC were to stop taking orders, do you think Hashfast, Bitfury, Avalon etc would do the same? This is a race between vendors, and the customers are the victims. Its just the nature of this market.

Trying to sell more when day 1 orders are either not delivered or customers are bug testing the plug and play ones that have got to them ?

Can't say they are predictable can you?

thats right, there was 890 orders scheduled for shipping day 1 and 2, im day 2 and no shipping yet. So they are still shipping these 890 orders. Right?

Right now they rule the market and could do it. First close order books and sort out their current problems instead of selling more - this is what their Network Protection Statement was for in first place. They now give away responsibility and rely on the judgement of buyers - haha omg  

Nevertheless - I follow your argumentation of competition and free market. I will have a seat, grab beer & popcorn and enjoy the shitstorm when people realize that ROI is max. 60-70% beside maybe some lucky day 1/2 orders - will be fun to watch - desaster could have been prevented  

[plasmoske]

Agreed. We think we all need an honest update from them. Why are we still stuck on day 1 orders? And why hasn't hosted customers' miners came online yet? (They posted an update 1-2 days ago saying logins/details will be emailed out to hosted customers / miners will be up and running very soon... and still nothing!).

I think they won't make the Oct 15th deadline and they could probably still be shipping all the way to mid November at this rate.

And the 5BTC compensation I got for the hosting delay, they seem to have sent it from an address which looks to be mining bitcoins. I'm thinking that is theirs. So far they seem to have mined about 189BTC (from that one address) and sent out maybe 75% of them for compensation.

So are they actually getting their farm online first before worrying about the customers?
