I quite like the last update email that pacifies us with news our hosted miners are happily hashing away. But no subsequent emails telling us how we actually get our mined BTC. It's like "yeah guys I have all your ASIC's hashing away.... crickets....oh you were actually expecting the money from them??"
I received an email from steamboat on the 14th dec listing the payment details for my 5 hosted miners. I have received payments for 5th nov to 13th dec so far to the original address that I paid from. I was in batch 6 and would have preferred a refund but the payout so far was 0.65 btc. a bit to go yet to make back the original investment. The group buy was a gamble from the outset and I would have been prepared to lose the lot but I do believe SB has tried to make the best of the situation for everyone.
