Bitcoin Forum

A few weeks ago Jesse Seaver from The Huffington Post posted here in Bitcointalk to get in contact with some miners.

Here is the result: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jesse-seaver/the-great-bitcoin-debate_b_3294847.html

Anonymous Miner: Mining Bitcoins has become an arms race against time. (Well, it always was, but now the big guys are in, with the big guns.)

Butterfly Labs might promise to deliver in two weeks ("two weeks" is their standard reply), but if you (pre)order now it might be end of 2013 til you get your hardware. Because of companies like Avalon (they plan to throw hundreds of thousands of ASIC chips on the market around August 2013 and have already sold 490,000 by now), the difficulty will be sky high by then. In my opinion, Latecomers won't even make their investment back, not to mention making any profit.

Jesse continues:
Machines ordered today are expected to ship in late July. Delivery dates are not guaranteed, but Butterfly Labs has assured me that they will offer refunds to orders that have not yet shipped.

Right now is the death march for BFL.

Assuming they ship en masse soon they will be left in the dust along with their customers who will likely not be ordering from them again.

I think we have heard this all b4 ... along with 2 weeks

Once again lets assume and this is really a big assumption that they can build 400 units a day...(they are having trouble building 4 a day let alone 400 ...lol )

They will get to the finish of their order queue in 39 weeks !!!!

How can they keep spinning this same bullshit ..end of July

The sad story marches on..and on ..and on...more people will come to have the experience and pleasure of dealing with these frauds!!
