What collateral can you offer? What if BFL never delivers anything to you?
Not sure. I've never asked for a loan so I'm not sure what most community members view as worthy collateral. I wouldn't want to give out any sensitive information that's for sure. As for BFL not shipping, you're right that could happen but that's just a risk I'm willing to take. I don't have the knowledge or skills to build my own rig so purchasing one is the best I can do for now. Plus I just recently got a job and am making sufficient money so ATM I don't mind spending/wasting a few bucks. Like I said I won't be officially requesting for the loan just yet. I'll wait for my paycheck to get here and think things through if my enthusiasm for a rig is still high then I'll repost this thread.
I was super pumped to buy a BFL rig when I discovered the technology, but I didn't. I didn't jump on it, and I'm waiting to see what happens.
The downside is that since I just recently discovered bitcoins, I'm way too late in the game to do any kind of mining worth a damn. I REALLY wish I would have discovered this a year ago. Anyway, best of luck to you in your investment. By the time BFL ships (no joke intended), I'll have my own enterprises working out. If you ever want to do something with mining and need an investor, message me.
