Don't you think they have already thought about someone like you sniffing up the pole?

Regardless, so what? What are you going to do? Go sniff them out and then what?

So what? So based on the information that we can learn (or not learn) about Halong Mining and MyRig, people can make informed decisions on whether they are comfortable buying from them. Disclosing the customary information about the incorporators (i.e., who they are, where their principle place of business is physically located, the consumer protections afforded in that jurisdiction) goes a long way towards building (or undermining) consumer confidence.

Let’s take it a step further. It’s illegal to present yourself as incorporated with the State of Colorado if you are not. We can report the to the state AG’s office and let them sniff around. Colorado law states that if they wish to do business in the state, but they are incorporated elsewhere (internationally OR domestically) that they should register as a foreign entity (in this case foreign is defined as outside of Colorado). If their terms invoke Colorado as jurisdiction, but they have no legal presence in Colorado, that’s a problem in several ways.

Also, the UPS Store where their box is registered was required by United States Postal Service regulations to obtain proper identification from whomever registered their mailbox there. If they’re acting illegally in the state, a complaint to the US Postal Inspector should drum up that information as well.

For all the hating folks do on Bitmain, as least we know whom, what, and where they are. Halong likes to talk about people “making their own decisions” yet they don’t give up any of the information necessary to do so properly. “Trust us, we’re awesome...” isn’t good enough.

And to hear the machines, after all of this hullabaloo and smoke and mirrors and obfuscation and dodgery, don’t even work to specs. This is unreal.
