how are the bitcoins distributed within the community?

[bitarrow]

I wasted over 5k BTC to BFL for equipment never received to date. 

if they deliver you´ll be into some heavy mining i guess. no refunds?

If they deliver!
and they wont refund in BTC, only the original USD that was purchased.

But when you see what 5k BTC is worth today, it makes me sick. Hopefully the sickness is temporary

Wow. $800k mining equipment. How long do you think it would take to recoup 5k BTC with it even if it did come?

few months if they deliver soon

Sellers remorse as we see above!

Imagine the 10k bitcoin pizza guy lol
but seriously we are still in infancy. These huge swings hopefully wont exist in future when the btc economy grows and stabilizes.

ya I bring up that example all the time I hope it was at least bacon,

your situation is a bit different sorry to hear about it hopefully the bastards fulfill their end of the deal

we are still quite in infant stages but most definitely in uncharted territories as many articles are saying

we've come this far though and honestly it seems like the sky is the limit
