is this the start of the way down?

Don't think so. Expecting 18.xx within 12 hours  Wink

How many others think $18 is a no-brainer?

...probably time to start taking profits if this is the prevailing sentiment.

OUCH!

$7807 for two singles at current exchange rate, that suxxors man.

30% in a couple weeks is real enough for me. :p

Nothing to split for the others because their reps don't act like angry teenagers.

Why do so many quote BFL's power "spec" as a firm number? BFL was WAY off on their last product's power specs, they do not have chips, and wasn't it their rep that was backpedaling on power consumption estimates just recently? Their power "spec" is a guess and likely a wild ass overly optimistic guess at that, just like their shipping dates.  

65nm designs almost always outperform 90nm and especially 110nm designs by a wide margin. Their ASIC designers would have to be unusually stupid in order to fail to produce chips with higher GH/J than all of the current competitors. FPGA power estimates are arguably easier to screw up, especially if you're working with an unusual FPGA.

To be a success after the difficulty rises, it doesn't have to be a "firm number". It just has to win.

Doesn't even begin to address the question. Everybody knows smaller die size = generally lower power consumption and better profitability for a chip maker. The problem is that BFL spits out this 1w/Gh number and people quote it like it's gospel. It's not even a power range as would have been prudent for BFL to release as they clearly do not know what the final power consumption spec will be. A jalepeno is very unlikely to have the same power consumption profile as a minirig SC, but they're the same according to BFL and people eat it up.

Hashing every bit as well as a BFL product TYVM...and it cost less too! Shocked

How are sales of the empty cases and coffee mugs going? They shipped in October right?

You label anyone that calls you on your lies an idiot and/or a troll. You really need some new material Josh.

If BFL isnt using customers funds why did they not have an option to pay a small deposit instead of having to pay the entire price up front ?



BFL did not use customer funds   ....i loled & i loled

Lets strike that bullshit down where ever it trys to raise its head.....(You must live on the banks of a river in Egypt )

Avalon used peoples funds ?? ...... of course they did

Once again the easiest way to make somebody part with $$ is to make u think that u dont need it...its either PR\MARKETING 101 or CON 101 we will see

...but they didn't need it. Vleisides still had the ill gotten gains from his lottery scam.

It's a mythical hashing device made from the blood of unicorns.
2272  Bitcoin / Hardware / [Archive] BFL trolling museum on: January 21, 2013, 08:54:10 PM
because they have a shit ton of chips, PCBs, etc laying around doing nothing.
Are you so rich to afford your money printing press laying around doing nothing?

Nah he had others pay for the gear and he's screwing them.
2273  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: NEW info. It appears that BFL are the biggest liars! on: January 21, 2013, 06:12:46 PM
I agree...it's entirely possible there could be some delays.

It's also entirely possible BFL reps will lie through their teeth about said delays to hold on to as many pre-orders as possible. This in addition to the falsified initial timeline to ship their ASIC products which effectively stifled competition and brought FPGA sales to a virtual halt. Who'da thunk a company run by a convicted thief would employ such tactics? Roll Eyes

I disagree with your first scentence, But the rest is bangon

Then you agree with this?

Altcoins add value and momentum to Bitcoin by expanding the cryptocash ecosystem, speeding up innovation and providing additional instances of the basic schema (with tweaked parameters) for comparison.  Plus providing redundancy, which is essential for critical systems.

I agree with it and found it to be well stated.
2275  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin over $15, what does it mean for you? on: January 21, 2013, 04:52:45 PM
BTC ask wall at $20 looks imposing and should cap gains for awhile after a very nice run. I'm buying LTCs while they're on sale.
2276  Bitcoin / Hardware / [Archive] BFL trolling museum on: January 21, 2013, 04:10:19 PM

Only small time, WHINGY, impatient miners have cancelled their orders.  Also when the same 3 people keep saying 80% have taken refunds, it doesn't make it happen.

Fixed it for ya!

also, I got money on a bet saying DIFFICULTY will be 100,000,000 by 1st Jan 2014.  I'm confidant, how about you lot?

I'm confident saying that tying up BTC on a bet that won't be resolved for a year is a very poor investment.

...no idea what difficulty will be 344 days in the future.

It'd be nice if the public servant in question would do a little math before he wastes a bunch of time on the clock chasing down a "criminal" for committing a victim less crime. Perhaps there's a real criminal he could collar? The real reason he'd be giving pursuit at this point would be the most heinous "crime" of all...contempt of cop.

Bunch of fail.

These guys have been collecting pre-order funds on the premise that they'd ship first for 7 months and still got beat to the punch. So who's getting fired? Roll Eyes

Daily Dividend of 0.26465225 BTC paid to 1250 shares.

I didn't get the same feeling that Tom was wasted when he posted this time. I'm sure he is under considerable pressure, but I agree he needs to make some better choices. People are understandably cautious when there's money on the line.
