Is this company legit? anyone with experience doing their cloud contracts? What's their ROI?
I would not go near their cloud contracts. They have shipped 2 miners I believe Appollo, and Ares (which 3 companies split the chips). The Zeus and Uranus have not shipped to my knowledge. And prices are rediclous on miners compared to similar options.
I would look at other options if you want my advice.
i've got no dog in this fight but from their site vs what you can get new 2nd batch titans at 400mh in box knc units on ebay (3.5K) if you are gonna go the miner route
i'd probably go with the new in box titans on ebay (or used) for less money and in hand
just saying for those with elec costs low enough and with the inclination towards equipment (me at 15c kwh them days are gone for new stuff)
anyway from what I could tell from the prices on their main page...am unaware of any deals etc beyond what was posted there
my 2c worth
I have no dog in it either. I just hate to see people cheated or make a bad choice. If they were going to get the Ares from here Scrypt
it will be for around for $3499 USD.
Now if they go with AlcheMiner 256 MH/s it will be around $999 each. So 3x for cheaper for same chip unit. They were one of the 3 companies that split the chip shipment with hashcoins.
I forgot about alcheminer....but from what i understand

? (could be wrong don't jump on me) the machine is OK hardware wise but they are getting i heard only about 200mh rather then close to the 256mh mainly with firmware issues and/or the same pool problems the titan had for 2 months...tweaking at the pool end...i'm also not sure how fast they are getting them 999 units out (1295 with shipping to usa) so another concern
if you have bettermore current info please share on the above...but frankly the 1295 IF THE COOPERATIVE EFFORTS on
www.litecointalk.org (see thread) pan out....well IT MIGHT be
worth getting a good working miner ..if they are as such at that price for the alcheminer 256 units....but me at 12c kwh again them days are probably past and am just running my current titans to doorstop status
a nice pop to $2 LTC would certainly clarify all this (a guy can hope)
again only thing that caught my eye is a guy stuck with 10 400mh Titans new in box unopened has been dribbling them out on ebay a few at a time ...i think with the 2 he has on auction now he maybe has 4 or 5 left? last ones went for 2.5K i guess looking at my links below
here is the link for those braver then myself with cheap electric
