Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Put your money where your mouth is: bet against "Butterfly Labs ASIC is real". If you are right that BFL are scammers, then you will roughly triple your coins (there is only 51.55 BTC on your side, but 109.74 BTC on mine). But I suppose you are going to invent some excuse for not betting, like every single person in my sig... I, too like to check on betsofbitco.in to see the latest estimates of ASIC and other events but I don't need to bet myself to use it as an indicator. Those invested in BFL surely are the most interested betters in this bet and maybe even BFL team members take side in an attempt to drive trust but no matter what, 60% confidence in a business not being a scam is a terrible standing. They lack PR big time and the only investments in PR are adwords to buy more? Seriously? I don't have an opinion on whether they are scammers or not apart from that bet and "not shipping" might just as well include having produced chips that cost all the money but didn't work but what's the point in going to the CES when it produces 100% negative news? No announcement¹ that would justify going there and what on earth are they selling to the people that come to the boot without a clue about bitcoin? Is there any video of their average Joe pitch? ¹Ok, as an android developer, the android miner got me a little interested but I have no clue how hard it is. Maybe a $2k job, maybe a $20k job.

and posted in this thread that I would be back tomorrow film a fact-based analysis of what equipment Butterfly Labs brought to CES and how they cannot demonstrate even one ASIC mining chip I knew when I walked in they wouldn't show off the devices and let someone inventory the 7 items or photograph them closely with the whatever megapixel camera I'm carrying around in this phablet.
BFL brought a box of fans + 3 cases + 2 Androids + 1 FPGA miner that my or may not work. This is fact. I come to film this, they call CES security. Maybe another reporter can go and photograph and film the equipment tomorrow during the last day of CES and ask them why they bothered to bring the box of fans.
Micon, you do realize that hundreds of people have taken high resolution photos with real cameras of our equipment this week. Up close and personal. You would have been welcome to as well if you were not stomping around, twitching and cussing at the booth people, fake pass and all. Also, you fail to note that I made absolutely no attempt to stop you from filming anything and you could, in fact, have filmed the equipment up close if you so chose. But you to try to be cute and "interview" me the same way you "interviewed" Dave, which I have no doubt would have resulted in you stomping around and cussing at people again. If you really want photos, I suspect you can contact the Bitclocker folks for some. They came by and were very friendly and interesting to talk to. I even disassembled the minirig for them to snap pictures of the inside of the "box of fans." They took a number of up close pictures of both the singles and the minirig... I'm sure they can supply you with "megapixel" quality shots equivalent to your "totally awesome" Galaxy Note 2. But you were right about one thing... I do regret that encounter. I still can't get the smell of your BO out of my nose, ugh.

That's why i put it in quotes so I could define anyway I wish. Like for example it is the opposite of what you took it to mean.
You don't change the definition of a word by quoting it. Way to be misunderstood... 2nd time I say it: you need to learn to communicate more clearly, if you want to be understood. I can change the definition to mean what I want it to. Whether or not you GET IT does not matter to me. You have no control over what I choose to have a word mean or not. Nor do I care if you understand me or not in a clear manner. You actually think that I CARE IF PEOPLE UNDERSTAND ME. You fail hard. So hard that you resort to betting and insisting that people put money on the line because of what I believe or not to be true. You make tons of assumptions. Keep failing hard. AGAIN I ASK: HOW MUCH DO YOU HAVE IN BFL PREORDERS? OH RIGHT BECAUSE YOU ARE EMBARRASSED TO SHARE THAT INFO LOL!!!

What's the point of taking pictures of empty boxes? You said yourself in an interview that you posted on your website : David Perry: "So this is just a case ... you don't actually have ASICs ready? Josh: "Um... right ... but we are eagerly awaiting them as everybody else I'm sure ..."

Here is a cued video of you cussing at me: http://youtu.be/UlWrmIqGs3Y?t=2m40s if you would like more context, rewind a bit: http://youtu.be/UlWrmIqGs3Y?t=2m19s 3) I saw Dave recording me while I was recording you. You say many times I was the one stomping around and cussing go ahead and post your unedited video as I have. Let's take a look and see who is lying. 4) My galaxy Note 2 is > than both your $100 Androids that you brought to CES. Making fun of the device, arguable the hottest Android phone out there, makes you look even more foolish than when you handed me a quarter at CES. 5) The cold, hard truth stares you in the face, and you will never reply publicly to the fact-based account of the equipment you brought to CES: 3x plastic cases 1 Box of fans 1 FPGA miner, working condition unknown 2x ~$100 Androids obviously you wont' be responding to #5.

Josh has selective responses. Can't admit what the truth is. Next week will be more excuses why the ASIC chips are delayed.
Those who preordered should cancel, get a refund, and just buy bitcoins that is much more productive investing.

For those of you wondering why I told him to buy a clue, he was berating one of my employees and cussing at them, in public, at our booth and making a general scene yesterday, stomping around and yelling "IS IT JUST A FUCKING BOX WITH A FANS?!" over and over. Yes, he was literally stomping around like a child. I figured that was the end of it, but apparently he decided to show up again today, so I was ready for him.
Of course I am not going to speak about the financials of BFL, but anyone with even a modicum of common sense would understand that 20k Bitcoins while not quite a trivial amount, is a tiny fraction.
So, are you disputing the part where your scam wasted a lot of people's BTC and trying to convince us it really is very little, or are you actually denying your product at the CES is a box of fans?

I think it's more that the conspiracy theorists are just really, really pumped that one of their conspiracies may just possibly for once prove to be true!
