His bars are quite legit.

You failed to address in the OP that "German Silver" is a Copper/Nickel alloy. It is worth much less than Silver, and yet you are quoting Silver spot prices. Either you are mistaken, and these are not German Silver, or this offer is extremely disingenuous to say the least. These are not "99.9%" pure Silver, they are 0% Silver.

To spare you the trouble you are supposed to run a proprietary Metatrader 4 image of which you get no information what it contains. And Maria insists on giving you a step by step by step instruction of what you have to do, as if you were a Computer illiterate.

Yes, the global bitcoin hash rate is now zero.

*facepalm*

In April 2012 I purchased a couple of FPGAs from Butterfly Labs, and they worked great! When I went to order more hardware in July 2012, ASICs were available for pre-order, and they had an upgrade offer for FPGA customers. So, I got the upgrades, thinking "BFL orders take two months to ship, which would make it September if I ordered more FPGAs, and the ASICs are 75x faster than the FPGAs -- what's another month for that much more hashing power?"

My ASICs finally arrived about two weeks ago. The day after they shipped, I got an Email from BFL, advertising pre-orders for the 600 GH/s Monarch 28nm ASIC, with expected shipping date in December. Pfft! I'm with Scotty on Star Trek, "fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Don't get me wrong, my ASICs will pay for themselves in about a month, but they could've paid for themselves in two days if BFL had met their shipping promises, and the last increase in difficulty was 34%--three days after I hooked up my ASICs. I went from earning ~1 BTC/day to 0.67 BTC/day, which is what my FPGAs were earning when I started.

I did some research, and I discovered HashFast. They have a 400 GH/s 28nm ASIC that is supposed to ship in October, and it is backed by their Miner Protection Program, which means if your miners don't pay for themselves in 90 days, they'll ship you the hardware it would've taken, in addition to your original order, up to 2 TH/s. If the difficulty skyrockets, HashFast will cover you for up to 5x the hardware you purchased. None of the other vendors offer that, and the price is competitive with BFL. Plus, you can read about who is behind HashFast on their web-site, unlike BFL & others....

See if you can go in for shares on a HashFast miner. It seems to be the best deal available, right now.

What an who cares, just another inner circle mba with his rich venture capitalist friends looking to take advantage of the masses.

I assume you mean private keys?

Or were you planning on making a donation to them?

$110+ per GH/s is bad value, even the BFL products from April were $50 per GH/s or less. The developers of the thumb would have known this in advance before they started the project.  The current market expects $20-25 per GH/s to break even.

What people forget is that Bitfury 55nm chip based miners have to get a positive ROI within 6mths or they will start making a loss at current BTC prices, the cost of electricity will be higher than the BTC they produce.

Punching the numbers into the http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/ calculator tells me at 2.1BTC the unit will make a loss of around $160, which is more than half it's purchase price. In order to make a profit BTC/USD would have to rise to over $300. In which case it would be better to just hold onto your 2.1BTC

The unit which costs you 2.1BTC will only return 1BTC before it can't cover the electricity price, therefore it should be priced at 1BTC or less.
