scam.  taking the time to write this incase anyone has hope that it isn't, so I can save you some money.

here's the tell...  It's all marketing blah blah blah, with one slight nod to technical.  He copied some ideas/text from how real FPGAs are done.  But look how it is artfully danced around:

To do this, the device creates a clone of the miner and both pools inside itself. This must be done because network traffic sniffing/decryption in real time is too difficult and we have to create endpoints.

So, I have some questions:

  • "clone of the miner and both pools".  What?  Why?  You're saying you are creating a hardware protocol in programmable logic?  OK, this is because you need microsecond response times?  Why?
  • "real time is too difficult".  No it's not.  The task is done in real time.  A malicious task could also be done in real time.  Delays on the order of miliseconds don't matter.  Your task is single purpose; the reason smart firewall traffic sniffing & decryption is done with FPGA assist is to greatly expand the capabilities of the device.  This is not necessary or useful in your case.  You are not selling a general purpose device that must have broad and expandable capabilities.  You are selling a toaster, it does one thing only.  It's far easier to implement in software, but with software you can't make the argument for pre-orders because you have to fund physical device development, can you?
  • "we have to create endpoints".  Right, I get it, you have to end the sentence with something that sounds like it matches.  Try harder next time, this makes no sense.  Your premise is not very complex.  By "endpoint" you mean "miner".  But "endpoint" sounds more technical, because that's hardware lingo (PCIe CEM spec among others).  All you're claiming to do is mine on two pools at once.  It's not rocket science.  It's not even particularly hard.


Can we just get this loser banned already, or does he have to successfully scam people first?
