The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Hmm, I always thought [Tycho] and DeepBit were the same user, so that DeepBit should have been able to answer: Name: DeepBit

Dead, resting, or quietly working behind the scenes?

Josh, said that there was going to be testing units taken out of the wafers that he received in this batch. He said, "It will take 1000 of the 5000 that he has now. I still mine on GPU's. I get free electric. Made a little money so far. The CGminer developer had an all expense paid trip to BFL to give support to CGminer. There has been pictures taken of their lab. I have also seen them unloading the same pieces of contraption out of what looks like a semi trailer. They have a lab. They have machines that looked like they were going to be making something. I myself think that Josh is just young to business and he is having a hard time getting what he wants out of the companies that he is dealing with. Look for more posts from kolivas. He knows what is going on more than anyone. He may have worked with a proto-type or something.

Josh is not "young to business". He's a retarded mouth piece with a superiority complex who has been led around like a puppy dog by his superiors. It's only by dumb luck and the sheer greed of the people on this (and other) forums that his antics didn't drive BFL into the ground. |

and this thread has nothing whatever to do with BFL .. I cached my shares in for a small loss a while back ..... |

Hello.
Reclaimer project was cancelled due to complete lack of public interest. All bond buyers were refunded at icbit.se
Total number of bond buyers was 7 (seven). Of course some of them bought more than one bond, but this is obviously FAR from making any sense in mass-production.

80 GH/s for $2800 is still pretty damn good. Shame the project fell through the cracks.
I wonder how much it would've taken to complete the project.

IMO, you ran into 2 issues: Your prices weren't competitive, and your payment methods were confusing and convoluted as hell. The first one doesn't seem so bad now, so if you get a simpler payment method, and reopened this project, you'd prolly get some sales with no problems. |

Actually I think that this was also caused by lack of any ads. And I can't imagine what can be easier than paying in BTC. It's even much simpler than some of our competitors :) |
