Why all the new users? Has Bitcoin gotten free/new exposure on a national level or something? I'm trying to find out what has changed to warrant these fluctuations and I can't find any.

Yea, this statement makes sense. Almost anyone who is affiliated with Bitcoin is on this forum. Hey, that's why the forum has a million dollars worth of bitcoin laying around. They just magically appear?

Seriously, what the hell is going on? I feel VERY lucky. On one hand I was able to sell my main coin supply on the 9th I think it was for like $247 / each. I refresh clean once in a while and that was the time. I told myself, once I see it go over $250, sell it all. I sold them all that day and a couple days later money was deposited into my bank account. The next day coin started to drop big time. Most places ceased operations, stopped business or just suspended trading until further notice. Then I had another whole wallet which I kind of forget about and tried really hard to sell those but no such luck. I pretty much have to hang on to them for a while and see what happens. My stupid fault for not remembering. That's a bad thing to do in this business.

Sorry, just wanted to post something positive in my world for once. I rarely EVER get to do that.

So what the hell is making coin go from $250 to $55 in 2 days or less? Yes, you can respond with sarcastic, anal retentive childish remarks if it makes you feel better.

You guys vett people like pros here. I don't have any skeletons in the closet but I'm sure you'd find some. When I need to find out information on someone, I'm coming here.

I'm a believer right now until proven guilty. PrimeASIC I was not a believer right from the start. Just from them not accepting money is a spin. What I really want to know is they said they have miner hardware. Do they mine out of a pool? Solo? Can we see stats/proof on their current mining infrastructure? That should be quite easy.

I highly recommend Seasonic PSU's. I've used them in all my computers and they are of awesome quality and very efficient. Check out their X series.

The forum had 1.3 million dollars worth USD of bitcoin this week. This is unimaginable to even comprehend and people continue to give funds. I'm sorry, with that amount I would take the money and run. Everyone has their price, and that would be mine. Guys, if you decide to take the money and run, cause I'm almost sure maybe some of you will do that, please save some funds for a decent programmer!! You can actually quit your job/career and retire with the bitcoin you are "holding" for a public/free forum that is running a very old version of free forum software. This is really one for books and should be in the news paper or something. Gotta love it.

Definitely have to have a UPS connected to protect the unit from surges and spikes. DO NOT trust a power strip. They will not protect your Avalon. A UPS will absorb surges and compensate to spikes...so your Avalon will constantly get clean unadulterated power.

I have to keep remembering that you guys also buy coins. I'm always forgetting. Do you have an online system set up for that, how is the transaction done? Thanks!

If you guys keep getting backed up or too much traffic just keep raising the rates to extreme to slow people down. I think that's better then just shutting things down, right? Maybe that's a little too drastic.

When the cash deposit is made there is a time/date stamp on that deposit, right? Don't you guys use the price of bitcoin at that time/date? Don't let people take advantage of you, not right.


You should have just sent them their original funds back for not following the procedure. Every day customers that follow the rules and procedures should not have suffer for what the others did. And they still even got their bitcoin! There have been several big time sellers that have closed doors temporarily due to the price drop. Hope you get going again....

Boy, lots of hate around here. I thought I was full of hate.

Listen, if the company here has been in business for a while they no undoubtedly have business documents with dates on them. Ones that would be perfectly find for the public to see. Purchase order, invoices, charges, any kind of statements with a letter head and a date. Obviously not some word document that was just made with a logo on the top of it. A business that has been working for many years has thousands of documents just sitting in the office. Please just scan some of these to prove you guys have been around, working and doing business. This is very easy and simple to do. Thanks.

I think ACH is out again. I have very bad timing. I've tried to sell my coins during the past few weeks and every time the funds get filled up again I'm not around. This isn't FC4B's fault at all, I'm just venting. Now I see BTC is at $135, when the last time I looked were around $240. Holy cow batman, that's  a huge fall. Mt Gox's low is $105. WOWzers. What is going on today making the value drop? And I can only assume LOTS of people are trying to sell before they go back down to double digits. At least that's what I'm guessing. Good luck everyone, what a ride.

If they release before Avalon customers get their units they will be quite pissed off, since they paid what, $6000 or more. WOW what a bummer and NO REFUNDS with the Avalon either. Man, it feels real good to see a possible potential company that isn't a scam. Who knows, we will see.

This would be great if they actually come out with a product AND start shipping before BFL. Hahahahaha.

What prices? I don't see prices anywhere on their page.

Will you be trying to rape everyone by charging prices that most middle class working people can't afford like $10,000 for a miner or are you going to  charge a more reasonable price? The only reason I could ever think of why you guys would want to sell mining hardware because you are already making a ton of money mining already is to make as much money as you can. Could you give us at least an approx price range?

Thanks

"delivering any more"

BFL has delivered ASIC units to customers? I haven't seen on post on here about it.

That's why I suggested in the beginning of March we should do this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=151619.0

And yes, I've already got my refund from the two orders I had. Too bad I didn't leave them in a wallet long enough. I would have never thought over $240 for bitcoin.

Send them a letter from your lawyers office. If they can't produce something you paid for (refunds or not) you are entitled to your money back. That's a serious crime if an online company just takes money from people then does not supply customer's with refunds upon request because there is no product. I can see if the customer just purchased it, and even three weeks down the road...but when you are talking about months and months then that's pretty much a given. ANY office unofficial or not will side with you on this one.
