KNC is over
neptune never cover ROI
Yeah, everyone said that about Jupiter, and under worse diffchanges.
What if they give us 5Th/s hosted in mid April?
How can you even say that before knowing what the offer is?
There simply isn't enough information to make that determination IMHO.
Exactly... if you've been a KnCminer client previously this is the sentiment.
Not true.
Who else was shipping (major suppliers) in October last year?
None.
Who was building massive cloud hashing farms in October last year?
None.
How many companies are doing that right now?
We know there is a massive amount of hashing power going onto the network daily, so you have plenty information if you've done your research, to know things are going to be awful in April onwards. The situation is nothing like October last year.
This is the same discussion in May 2013 (when we decided to buy) and the same concerns you had in August of last year.
...had the price stayed the same from the summer onward I would have considered shooting myself in the other foot (just to keep it even), however your posts seem to reflect a history of supporting bitcoin as a whole which is also the reason we stuck with our order instead of getting a refund in August when ROI appeared to be nothing but a dream. Who could have predicted the price increase? Anyone. The community as a whole knew the price per BTC was on a steady trajectory, correlated with difficulty and thus the massive support and influx of investment.
What has changed? Too many factors to count. The difficulty definitely is a concern and even now access has increased to those who would build their own mega mining farms.
The only real concern in not crossing ROI threshold is when dedicated bitcoiners turn tail and run from our trusted supports and don't get involved in signing up merchants etc to increase utilization. Bitcoin price is the only place ROI exists; the difficulty is inconsequential if you are the one who owns the most cutting edge mass adoption tool in the industry. This and unyielding work ethic is what sets KnC apart from other companies; your prediction KnC would possibly call it quits after making significant profits turned out to be an unwarranted fear because KnC invests in people first.
If you bought bought a Jupiter in June 2013 ($7,131.80) to date you should have made 40+ btc at roughly 510 gh/s avg. I don't know where else in non BTC land that kind of ROI exist for the average person.
