Got the USB miner, plugged it in, ran great, first thing in the morning my two year old yanked it out of my laptop and snapped it. #Fail
Thanks though.

You might be able to sell it on ebay as the first broken USB ASIC Miner  Shocked

1104  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Recieved 50GH BFL Single Today! on: June 20, 2013, 10:39:47 PM
BFL took a currency risk and apparently did not hedge it. Or they hedged it (by keeping the BTC paid instead of converting to USD) but are now unwilling to part with the profit made by holding that hedge.

The truth is that you won't know in what form and at what ratio (if they received a split) they received money for their products that were very clearly priced in USD.

Most people assume that they received some USD, at least.


How else would BFL pay for their components, rent, wages. and other expenses? It's nice to think you can use BTC for some things, but in reality it's not very many.

BFL has stated over and over that they have not touched customer funds for development and operations.
BFL has stated over and over that they put the funds in escrow and that anyone who wants a refund can have one.
If BFL was going to put into escrow what they collected from customers, why on earth would they instruct Bitpay to convert the BTC to anything else? That would create the mother of all exchange rate risks.

Bitpay will convert BTC into any of 30 other currencies and deposit those funds into a bank account of the merchants choosing. Bitpay will just send the BTC unless the merchant tells them otherwise. https://bitpay.com/faq

If BFL did convert the BTC into USD to pay rent, wages, and buy components, then why did they lie about doing so?

And they also said over and over again that the miners would be shipping too, just two more weeks guys cmon!

@DrHaribo,
I would like to personally thank you for all of the hard work that you have been putting in for us.

Your pool is by far the best and easiest to use and I mention it every chance that I can.

Just know that all of your hard work is paying off

So...

Thank you

Sensei, was there any further discussion about purchacing with chips? or did that fall through?
1116  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Off-Topic on: June 20, 2013, 02:07:27 AM
well.. he had 20k chip already on order , people pre order a ton of chips yesterday , so today = Reorder to fullfill all the preorder that they got in ... thats sounds good to me
Reorders today would mean 2 months waiting for the 2nd batch.  (I hope we don't get bfl'd Smiley

BFL burned a good many of us..  but they took nearly 10 months worth of "two weeks" to ship.. orders that were expected to ship 90 days from the time of order.

I have high hopes for this venture.  They've been transparent about their position and have a working prototype product.  Pictures of their office space and some firmware programmers.  It's clear they're not here to rip us off, and have good intentions on making good on their promises.  Time will tell, but I have high hopes and a better gut feeling about this than I did with BFL.

Your kidding right? They couldnt have fucked this up anymore if they tried, silent treatment on the day of pre-orders, not forthcoming with their chip order information and potentially lieing about their second chip order, has any proof of that come out yet? paypal issues, the issue with cloudhashing, they are fucking ametures and are now hidding. they barely had the decentcy to reply yesterday when everything wnt south.

1119  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has anyone actually gotten any of the mining rigs they have ordered? on: June 20, 2013, 01:08:18 AM
So has anyone here actually personally physically seen a 50ghz rig or above in person? Do such rigs even exist?

Bumping for a reply.

No because 50ghz machines do not exist and never will.

It is 50GH/s as in Giga Hashes Per Second

We really need a bitcoin mining school

...goes and checks godaddy....

Thanks for the semantics check. So 50GH/s mining rigs actually do exist? Has anyone here actually physically seen one? The ebay dude who supposedly got one, for all we know, he could be faking it.

I have never personally seen one, but to be honest here, forget about any product from BFL.

They are just this side of a scam.
