Scrypt Cloud Has Been LAUNCHED!!!!
-
Without any further evidence it’s kinda hard to really get a good judgement on the situation. For all I care Shane is having the shivers due to issues with the processors and the wifi. The lack of communication is bad though.
-
Seems the Whois info was updated on the 22nd 10am this maybe to cover tracks or remove some info. There is a name and address present which maybe of use if your local and may have got burnt.
Yes worth noting to police, but I’m afraid they will just pass you to action fraud who will log the complain and issue you a crime number this is where it stops. I had a customer of mine scam around 3k on stolen card info it didn’t progress and further than the issue of a crime number.
Guess we need to learn from mistakes and be wary of sending funds and hoping for the best, as said in above post it’s soo easy to make a couple of grand in very little time with very little effort. This happened with a litecoin contract website only a week or so before this was posted!
We needs to treat coins with more care and as cash, would you give someone £1000 cash down the pub who you just met who promised to give you something in return next week with no contact information…
I still maybe wrong and hope he does the right thing, with people getting hot under the collar if any local customers can pop over to meet in person it may prompt him to refund instead of run. I guarantee his reading all of this each day, time will tell.

well so welcome back on line

Thanks for posting, communication is key especially when things go wrong, this should put people’s mind at rest.
Hope all goes well.

[/quote]Lots of people offering to help here. Take them up on it!
Offer refunds to those who want them, but get some pictures up and an action plan for those who want to stay in.
To fall at the last hurdle will make you more annoyed in the long run.
Surely CPUs and connection issues can be sorted?
You’ve probably raised a fair amount of concern by taking the site offline and being absent over the last 24 hours. Why not talk it out like you did with the planning? The community is good for that kinda stuff.

[/quote]if some members of this community could chaperon the project and help solve technical problem, and that FTClover provide evidence of the hardware.
i would keep my contract running
thanks

FTClover, as people have said, the lack of succes (at this moment) is not nearly as much of an issue as the lack of communication. Of course you’re angry and disappointed and who knows what else. I hope you got some sleep at least. I’ve been in your shoes quite a lot, with nothing but crap on my hands and angry people demanding solutions, and learned one thing: talk, frequently. Honestly, it helps both parties in keeping a sane attitude.
Did you consider the help offered here? Wish I could help, I can get this thing up and running, but it’s a heck of drive to get over there ;)
Otherwise, yeah, refund. Disappointing though to see the only decent scrypt mining service in existence (well, almost then) go down like this. But refund means you’ll have this huge pile of hardware that you can’t return. Don’t know about you, but I cannot afford such a load of hardware.

Not to sure where the failure has been when reading through this thread.
I see there was an mockup regarding wrong cpu and that wifi didn’t work well.A couple of ideas:
*Order new CPUs (i know its harsh but cpus are dirty cheap these days and should not take more than a day to deliver in the UK).
*Regarding WIFI, have you considered Lan over Power solution? i use this in my rig room without any issues. this however needs to be tested in regards to the hotspot and the outlet
being on the same power grid or close enough.
*Have you checked what kind of power you have at your dispersal in that storage facility?, you would need alot to power those rigs. I use about 40 Amp for my 23Cards…Its a shame things so far haven’t worked out.
But if you need any help/advice please feel free to give me a shout on Skype@fuzzywolf84, I’ve tried almost everything and know what works and what doesn’t ;D -
I have the feeling FTClover just panicked. Probably he has put all his money in this business and now he realises that there are some unforeseen issues. But I still don’t get why put down the website. Take another 2-4 weeks to solve your problems and inform your customers about the problems. Customers who don’t want to wait that long could have sold their contracts on the website, right?

Wifi was a bad choice anyway, especially for projects like this. Cabled network is much much more reliable and much much more secure.
An yes, out of all of the reasons why this project could fail, my number 1 reason was: total power usage.

I said this back at the start, he could think about still splitting his mining operation between 2 sites.
Presumably he has ‘some’ space at home to house a few of these. Even if its not half of the capacity, it will get some of the contracts up and running.
In my view doing something is better than doing nothing. It will prove his concept and put some minds at rest.
The problem with power and cooling is then 2 smaller, individually more manageable problems. Plus I bet he has a stable connection at home.
Powerline adapters could work if he uses some kind of VPN over the link? Mining doesn’t need a lot of bandwidth, it just needs to be consistent.

[/quote]Most of those power over pan equipments have built in encryption for secure point to point communication if one wants to use em.
However i do not see the necessity for securing it anyways, they are just supposed to be stupid mining rigs, not a place to store “valuable” wallets etc on :D -

[/quote]Most will encrypt the traffic between each poweline ethernet adapter. Some say that you don’t want to draw too much power from the same lines that the network runs on, however, I have 5 GPUs running on the same circuit no problems. My home setup goes as follows, In through my own cable modem, to my wireless AC router, out to a poweline adapter in the living room, back in to a powerline adapter in my computer room, into a 10 port switch and out to my mining rigs. All of my 7970/R9 280xs run at about 0.13% reject rate on average and I don’t have any lag while gaming over powerline… I really like it. If i need to transfer bigger files between machines I hop on my wireless as that can pull 1.7 gig and my powerline is only a 200 meg kit.
If I were to convert a house to a mining operation I would do it just like my current home network except get newer powerline adapters with more than 1 Ethernet jack (no switches needed). Have a good router connected to your modem and then send out the signal to a good powerline adapter and then have matching adapters in each room for a hardwired connection. Boom now you have multiple Ethernet jacks in each room!!!

the last i heard he was planning to run this from storage containers/units. not sure powerlines would even be an option there

Whats this Hashingnow.com project now I hope you are not giving up on ScryptCloud just like that man we were just talking
on the Skype the other day.Don’t Give up because you made a mistake ask for help here in this great community and I am sure there are many
people here who can provide all the support you need to get this project rolling in the next few weeks at the latest.
