So, it seems you're obviously coming from a different perspective, likely the HMD VR crowd who in gengeral wants to see a finished and pretty render to place in the news..   Or maybe you didn't read in their response on reddit that their site was only up for the past 3 days and google indexed them the first day resulting in an unfinished website and tons of pre-orders?

Unlike the VR community, people here are throwing money(bitcoins and cryptos) at these miner companies with little or nothing more than an announcement from them that they are developing a miner. Sometimes they win, other times they don't.  But without that, there wouldn't have been a KNC, Butterfly labs (good riddance), Alpha Tech, etc... etc... etc....

So that's what's *great* about the crypto community, unlike the VR gaming one.  

You're right, I am coming from the VR community. Even a passing familiarity with the VR hardware space makes it abundantly clear how completely bullshit the Horizon4k VR headset is. And even if you're not at all familiar, growing up in the internet age fosters a pretty robust scammer intuition, which I should hope is going absolutely batshit right now. So I thought I'd just share some of those insights for those who may not be aware, because the people who commit these scams damage the public trust in VR (or in any space the scammers infiltrate). And if I can take even a dollar out of their pockets, I'll gladly try.

But hey, what are you gonna do, speculators gonna speculate.
