I'm thinking of requesting a refund on my 2th.. doesn't look like they are on schedule

how are you going to get a refund?

they are pretty clear that they don't want to ever give any money back for any reason

Sorry, Cointerra wasted all your money on a failed attempt to fix a broken chip design.

When more than a month has passed since mock tape-out, and no word of actual tape-out is spoken, we can read between the lines and see something is seriously wrong.

Cointerra probably realized their initial design was unworkable, had to start over from scratch, and then found out the second design wouldn't work either.

So far Cointerra's business model is:

1)  Collect $$$ from pre-orders and investdurrs.

2)  Waste money on failed chip designs

3)  Huh

4) PROFIT

Explain to me how this would be different from your 'heroes' Hashfast? Seems you troll every single ASIC project except the one you ordered from.

Have you been living under a rock?  The "only" difference is HashFast taped out 2 months ago, so at least, they have spent customers' money in NRE cost and making actual chips, but where is the money that went into CoinTerra's pockets?  Have anything been accomplished other than paying for Google Adwords advertisements?

Where is the PR where uniquify announced that they where on schedule for having the chips ready at the end of october? I was sure to have read it, but not it disappeared...
Ot here anyway, i will crosspost to the right poor's thread.

But you don't understand. He really wants to win a Babyjet so shilling for Hashfast is a small price to pay! They came out a week ago and said they would be a month late but they are obviously still better then anyone else.

Yes, I really want to win my non-existing BabyJet  Cheesy  But seriously, you are the one who ask to explain how CoinTerra is different from HashFast and I gave you a factual answer, and it is obviously you are clueless about what is going on outside of CoinTerra and too busy drooling over their high-schooler 3D CAD drawing, which btw HashFast has actual photos of the Sierra chassis taken at their manufacturing facility no less.  So yeah, CoinTerra is no different than HashFast if you are saying neither one has a working ASIC hashing machine.  You could have also said the same thing about KnC back in September, but look where they are now.

The fact is HashFast is making and showing progress and CoinTerra is not.  This is not to say HashFast will not end up being BFL (1 year late), but they could also very well be KnC (albeit a month or 2 late).
