I'm guessing if GW was better at communicating they would make people feel better and secure.  For example, I'm guessing that their timeline schedule that they have recently started has the dates listed on them.  I understand the dates to be the completion date.  They may be looking at the dates as when they start a task.

They seem to be a good company but with poor communication. Worst case, perhaps a little of their bonus tokens should be taken away for not doing a good job as in any standard company would do. I don't even know if it is possible.  Bottom line is that we are just investing in a new thing and risks are alway there. It would be nice to be able to help them somehow.
-------------------------


Help them?Huh Lol!!  Dear readers, I suggest you go read what is in their Telegram 'support ' group! Those are real customers describing their problems... Beware also in this forum I have noticed trolls supporting GW. Common messages " they are good, they had bad luck, it is the fault of the US government 😂 Etc. " I also have been discredited, but I will keep spreading the truth! None of these trolls brings answers to my questions or good arguments

Facts: 1. GW has not in the past or present given reliable dates for release of miners and tokens. Delays to 3 Months!!
2. D3 miner at gigawatt brings you revenue of 1$ a day since the last 3 days
3. this week GW deducted power costs of 2 weeks power ina few hours without warning. This was for mining cost because they had D3 running but they were not on the dashboard of owners
3. so they admit they were minimg for 2 weeks already... they paid the rewards to owners BUT didn't communicate they were mining. They could have spared D3 owners 2 weeks of stress
4. people with batch 1 s9 or L3+ miners are still NOT DEPLOYED. Gigawatt installed the D3 first although S9 were set to be deployed before d3 ( according to batch date) . Reason? Probably because D3 has 1200W and L3 800W so GIgawatt has better revenue, they can charge more for electricity/miner
5. they charge in crypto, they deduct from mining revenues (I would rather pay inUSD). so you could say, they are mining too and we paid for the miners which will be worthless soon ( D3 was over 3000$!)

So why help them? It is just a matter of time until someone takes action and kills this project.


Gigs-Fail is gonna get myspaced and they brought it on them selves. But their CEO is going to drive his Lambo home tonight
[/quote]


Yep it has gone out of hand completely. To add insult to injury s9 and d3 miner dashboards don’t display actual hashrate and power consumption. It’s like a play dashboard to fool you. GW claims it’s the s9 and d3 miner software that’s faulty (some professionals they are), while it’s their faulty API. So D3 are dialed in static for 15gh and 1250+10% consumption. So much for having your own miners if basically your miners are turned on and off without your knowledge with statistic false stats....it’s like cloud mining.
Support doesn’t even want to hear it, the answer is “do you want us to stop deploying to address this issue” and then the miners are blamed for being negative and complaining to the extent of support rep saying he doesn’t want to be here. Makes sense all they want to do is plug your miner in so they collect the wrong fee, they don’t care what the miner does.

So they don’t have time to address a huge issue of not delivering services and properly charging clients but Dave Carlson has time to show off demo pod to local news in Grand opening ceremony. It seems the closer GW gets to completing more pods the less they care for people who helped build those pods. It’s time the same local news gets info on the foundation of GW business.

I wouldn’t trust TFL with payouts or anything else. The entire team is trash as they have no marketing skill, no coding skill, no rudimentary business skills. They are also thieves, bch that was received during ico has been pocketed without any plans on spending it on project (they simply refuse to comment/answer on it). They laugh at investors who bought at ico and tell them to sell it at half the price now so they can buy it. I would blacklist the entire team if I were you.

Let’s just say nobody had ever won the jackpot and the investor raffle they had people won who have never ever showed up. So not a single person has ever said they won anything from TFL aside the fake broken English testimonials they have. Now instead of dividends they offer us gambling coupons. Like I said it’s a scam

According to wp then pods associated with batch 3 should be done too by tomorrow, otherwise what are tokens released for? I’m not sure how to take the news of release of tokens without the news of pods associated with them being complete. They are still deploying pods 1-2 which was previous batches of tokens, many of which are basically unused as most miners aren’t mining in those pods yet, week 4 of deploying miners in readybpods. So those batch 3 will be ready to trade but not use for at least 2 months.

Yes, but you can also rent them out. That eases the pain.

You can’t if pods associated with them aren’t built. You will learn the pain. I think GW realzied they won’t finish construction in time for this batch of tokens, so to avoid a refund on tokens which is stated in wp they just dumped tokens so people can be happy to trade them and have “control”. If tokens were somehow reassigned to another building then GW was lying about batch 3 token delays associated w build. Truth is nothing has happened past few days that would make them release batch 3. I guarantee those tokens can’t be rented for a while, which would be a breach of wp as tokens should be allocated to buildings, not arbitrarily issued whenever

This project is a scam. They keep coming up with further deadlines and new useless projects that don’t make any money. Investors get paid coupons to part take in lotto, something that was changed multiple times from wp. So you make no money on your investment and coin trades on one shitty exchange for 1/3 of ico price with 20k usd volume.
Most of the investors are of the same opinion that’s why you saw a huge dump of token today. There are some koolaid drinkiners but I think they are just the team bots that kiss ass and say “we believe” even as they get screwed. If you want advice stay away from this project as there are plenty more with more of a legit and capable team. If anyone tells you otherwise ask them to show any kind of profit or growth from this “working product” project that doesn’t make any money. The best thing this project did is expose the faces of scam artists that run it.

You maybe right but you call HitBTC a shitty exchange? For your information HitBTC is currently top 4 exchanges when it comes to volume just after Bithumb, BFX and Bittrex. TFL needs more advertising and aggressive marketing in order to convince people to play and trade their tokens. I still see TFL as a young project though, so who knows.

It’s only shitty cause it doesn’t grab demographic of the entire world. Trust me it wouldn’t help to have this coinon 10 ex, it has no value. It’s just the team had the balls to say they were working on exchanges while they haven’t done anything at all. This model is unsustainable, they only raised 2000 BTC and have been liquidating since, while almost half of that is jackpot money. Their projection for ticket sales is that they will reach 15k ticket sales a day (from all games combined at that) IN ONE YEAR BY DEC 2018; that’s pathetic given during ico there were 10k sales, fake yeah but someone was trying to promote or do something. It took them 4 months to basically put together a normal new White Paper where they are projecting not do jack shit to boost ticket sales. They were delusional to think investors will consider this “hot Pizza” and great news. So 1.5 years until like medium sale operations, into a claiming to be a working product ico that asked for jackpot and marketing money. So 2+ years before anything...for a fucking lotto game? People build blockchains in that time. Nobody will give a shit about TFL in 2 years They have no revenue to sustain them this long, so I foresee another round of sucker investments or they will get private.
If you check they offer actually blockchain tech services; one would wonder how do you have the time if you haven’t fixed your own simple project.. They are just bunch of bad devs (cause they outsource work actually) who want to get paid for learning and making shit projects. To add to all of this they are completely unapologetic; 95% of investors are saying they are fucking up, token is 50% of ico price and they say that they are doing everything right. Their useless 40 year old bold executive who pretends to be hip wearing skinny jeans had stated that speculators wanted to see 300% profit and they are unhappy; those who wait long see project developing, hold or sell at a loss. When executive has this much faith in his company at this level who else can.
They are unprofessional and at this point it’s a scam as wp changed 3 times and nothing they promise actually happens and they don’t intend to compensate investors in any way. It’s a scam as company promised dividend structure payout to investors and instead just stole the money to be allocated wherever they want. Model proposed will keep ico investors funds tied up for years with no ROI in sight. Research their team, you will see they have no experience; only thing going for them was a lie that they already had a working product

Well I bought my tokens $1.10, told batch 3 Sept. 15. My 5k tokens are now batch 4. How many batch 3 people are being pushed back to batch 4?

I got pushed back from batch 3 to batch 4. No idea why but it is what it is.

I purchased three tiers and 4 miners, the first was at $1.05. They all were pushed back to batch 4.  If one of my companies treated their financing people the way GW tokens holders are with no respect, they would take back their support. That's the problems with tokens, once they get the company gets the money, there is nothing they can take back except their reputation. I have no idea whats going on except the little circles without dates or wrong dates.

Don't get me wrong.  The little circles were a huge boost in moral.

This is why I kind of hope there is competition and someone else gets all the business. Hope someone buys their pods out cheap as their business model doesn’t work anymore, it would be ironically just given everyone having to sell their miners at a loss and 2 weeks since pods 1-2 complete, 0 miners online. These guys are undeserving of the support. Right now reputation is ripping off customers and investors.

Is it a scam? No, but it’s a business model that put early investors and customers at a loss to pay for company mistakes while they still make a profit.

Great post. And it is nice to see someone who finally understands what the words they use actually mean.
I don't mind people being upset or mad. I don't mind people calling out Gigawatt for poor service and confusing information.

I get irritated when people throw the word "scam" around. That word has a meaning that most people don't seem to understand.

Your post seems spot on to me.

It may not be a scam down the road, but first customers did get scammed and company now pushes December batch miners at mark up while those won’t be running until probably March; doing this knowingly and intentionally isn’t negligence but a fraud/scam. You are scamming people with mark up for miners that will
Never be deployed on date promised. They paid money for service they never received and company didn’t offer them refunds. Most of those miners were sold 1000$ per price, what was that fee collected for? Free money? It almost seems like GW is the customer and token holders and people buying miners are the ones servicing them. at The end of the day delays, losses are written off as a learning experience without a single drop of remorse. The fact that miners are being sold for dec batch knownglugly shows that. If GW truly cares for customers they would focus on that, as opposed to focusing on sucking the most money out of people and shrugging shoulders along the way.
They messed up bad but they know even if they lose every single customer now, the demand is there to have new ones. I only hope there is more competition out there now that will push them out as I don’t believe they deserve to be successful by being fraudulent while pretending everything is fine. Again wouldn’t recommend anyone to do business with this company unless you can get a written contract ensuring advertised deployment (with a reasonable delay if 2-3 weeks not 2-3 months) and corresponding financial compensation for non-delivery of contract agreement....
Funny thing is if GW would be run on blockchain, they would never be able to break all these smart contracts. As for escrow for token holders. Well cryptonomos deals with tokens while GW deals with company. So cryptonomos says we just issue tokens as we are told and we are holding them because pods aren’t ready, well ok since there are delays where is the escrow? Oh well that’s not cryptonomos person escrow...well ok then we are past deadlines of pods operating but you guys deployed first batches of tokens? Well Pods are functional...how are they functional if no one is mining? Well, we go by a certain definition of pod construction being complete....

This goes on daily while now I hear of a new project which cryptonomos is launching ICO for and guess who is one of the advisors? Dave Carlson, ceo of GW. One would think you wouldn’t have any time advising anyone while you are ripping off your early customers cause of your business mistakes, but hey money is money

Kinda hard to believe.

I bought my tokens at 1.05$ ( so first then you) and I was always batch 4. The only thing that changed was the date that got delayed.

Wife corrected me, I guess we are batch 4. Guess our coins wont be released till 2020. My $5500 could have been invested elsewhere. Praying this is not a scam.

IS GIGA WATT A SCAM? Kind of like MLM....
If you listen to just some people on here that haven’t kept a close eye on the project they will throw general terms at you like “construction delays” or blaming US authorities for laws, saying to contact devs and support. In reality there is a group of people, wtt token holders and non in telegram that follow this closely and believe me these people that ask about their miners and tokens aren’t FUDing, these people are the ones whose money is building these pods while they get screwed. If anyone would ask me if I recommend GW for mining hosting service I definitely wouldn’t and here are the same reasons people complain:
  • The issue of overselling miners through GW site for exclusive GW hosting. GW continues to sell miners while there isn’t one token holder I’m aware of that is mining at GW. Support always avoids this question and never answers why would people pay premium on exclusive delivery and then be left with overpriced miner in hand seeking to mine/sell on own. It’s a simple x miners to y space and power and yet not a single GW employee has been able to confirm if number of miners sold through GW and their corresponding delivery would fit into pods. FYI GW doesn’t take any responsibility for this, they still take the profit of miner mark up and only help you with shipping if you choose to sell your miner from them (so it doesn’t collect Giga dust).
  • the issue of timelines that make no sense. So the timelines on the site for pod builds aren’t realistic, they are more of a general timeline with deadlines extending 2-3 weeks easily (usually after displaying past due date for 3-4 days). So ok construction delays, inspection delays...but now pods 1-2 are done, but guess what? 1 week since notification of completion and nobody is mining, furthermore support stated 7-28 day range for deployment. Yes, 1+ month to deploy miners in a pod. Question of competence, priorities and real use of those pods comes up.
  • so with next few pods under way of course people are interested who goes in those next...too bad you can’t get that info. Again from my first comment about hosting capacity this would be easy but it’s avoided with general answer of “basically we will deal with it when your miners get here”, in other words we will tell you it’s your problem in a month and you figure it out then. No proactive steps taken. We are given however the most complicated priority of deployment system (interesting enough nobody mining still); the system is ever changing from stating hardware purchase date to now wtt token holder and purchase date and then D3 go in first...oh and it will take 4 weeks.
There is very little transparency and someone visiting GW recently only saw one pod and was told there isn’t enough time to see others...I’m not even mentioning “existing” buildings that were speculated to host some miners temporarily, no such option has ever been presented. So based on these events it seems that GW as a service to non WTT token holders right now is non-existent and those people basically gave extra funds for miner date delivery to GW for nothing, essentially fraud as none of those people are even aware of any delays or issues ahead. Wtt tokens have it slightly better as they lost money on their miner purchases but their wtt token will be worth something, if GW won’t be tarnished by this lack of service and competition rises.
Is it a scam? No, but it’s a business model that put early investors and customers at a loss to pay for company mistakes while they still make a profit.

This project is getting worse by each day and appears to be more and more of a scam. You wonder why the price drops on exchanges that are worthless, it's cause the coinIs worthless. Here is why:

1) ico claimed working product with a successful launch and claimed to have been raising funds (specific % allocation) mostly for jackpot. 2 months later jackpot has only been made around 100 BTC and no attempts of marketing had been made.

2) ticket sales during ico seemed to have been fake/developer generated, as they plummeted into a few hundred a day if that (from over 10k a day during ico)

3) team hasn't done anything constructive in 2 months including to fail to get on any reputable exchanges. Words such as "minor updates" "version 2.0" and "soon" has been the only progress in the project. Oh yeah and someone won an art competition... They deem it an accomplishment to be able to send your tokens from MEW to the site wallet, calling it successful "parking". Unfortunately, to even try to withdraw your tokens you have to click all these confirmations, including email  just to come to a screen that says we will get back to you in 24 hours. I've also seen countless people having issues with withdrawals that take days to get funds out and hammering support.

4) there are claims of work constantly being done but nothing to show for: no marketing, no real jackpot, no ticket sales. (Remember working product...right) they haven't even figured out how to run a simple lotto but keep saying they are working on b2b, new games and partnership. In other words money raised by ico being spent on other things, totally ignoring the investors. Just adjusting a price to the rising BTC price took 3 weeks to fix, as if it was a miracle To do.

5) constant lies by the TFL team, first it was fixing WP last day of ico to "fix" the language (interesting enough language waschanged that would shaft the Investors). Some bullshit was made up about SEC, but not being able to even be listed on a single normal exchange obviously shows no effort made in that direction. Since the team has promised to launch the real jackpot in mid sep and ico participant dividends would start coming in oct. It's end of sep, no lottery, no news. No real explanation other than "we are working on it" and "soon". Token price is 1/3 of what it was during ico with 5k volume if that.

6) team seems incompetent, hiring consultants twice to get on exchange and failing both times or more likely lying, as both times those faceless consultants were blamed instead of taking responsibility


So if you are happy over some bounty program for tokens that are 1/3 of value 2 months later with no product in near future and scam team, this is the project for you.

I had sent e-mail about this yesterday, but it wouldn't hurt to get an answer in an open forum. I like the project so I had participated in the ICO yesterday, but noted a few things that I would like to get clarification on.

- There are 2 versions of whitepaper that I have seen change past 24 hours, both listed as version 1.0 (I have screen shots of both and both were downloaded from ICO page with 40 minute difference). One of them promises dividends of 10-15% to all token holders from daily ticket sales while other (latest) promises only "special" lottery for token holders 4 times a year. Additionally the ICO webpage still promises 10-15% dividends. What is going on and which is the correct investor incentive?

- token purchase was seamless, there was no need for extra step of contract execution, sending funds from MEW to ICO address and TFL tokens were in MEW within minutes. However, they are not reflected in TFL holder profile. As per the latest white paper version the tokens need to be "parked" on the token holder profile, so how is that accomplished?

- why does the number of contributions keep dropping below 1900 BTC? it was over 1900 a day ago now back below 1900.

- slack channel invitation page keeps returning tokens_voided when clicking join and no invitation in e-mail.
