Complete overpromise and underdeliver!!!!

I'm just waiting for the next excuse to come up and it being delayed another month(s)

Could be much worst, You could have ordered a dcr1 obelisk and got rekt.  No delivery, no product, 1 year delays, negative profitability. USA companies struggle to compete with china companies for delivering mining products.

I have to say that what fascinates me the most are those people who are constantly discussing (on Discord) some mods involving Acorn and all the subtleties of mining ZEN Protocol, without any concern about gains, money and time wasted. This is unreal to me.
People who believe the software will come are currently spending their time tweaking and enjoying the hardware they have on hand. Not sure what you don't get.

I do not get how much they think their time is worth. In Ontario, Canada minimum wage is C$15/h :-)

well it depends on what you wanted to do with an acorn setup.
some people hobby mine.  one or two builds   profit is no big deal to them.

Some people  had 10x 6 card 1080ti rigs and a few 8 card 1070ti rigs.

they hoped this gear would help them maybe they got a nest and 2 215x acorns like I did. Thinking they would expand to more once they new it was good.

they got refunds.

bigger guys skipped these and got fpga's
