 I mean, I am a bit curious, in the same way I'm curious about rubbernecking when I see an accident on the highway...

The death of BFL will bring joy to my heart

The BitSafe hardware wallet is an open-source project. It did not originate from BFL (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=152517.0 for the hardware side and https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=78614.0 for the firmware side), though BFL are the ones commercialising it. Like many open-source projects, work was done in our (allten and I) spare time, on a purely voluntary basis. Since we have other things going on in our lives, sometimes that means that development stalls. Currently, development has stalled. I expect things to pick up in the coming months as I have more free time.

[who the fuck cares]

You may not find a hardware wallet useful. You are probably competent at computer security. A hardware wallet will not offer you much additional security. But what about "ordinary people", who may not be as well-versed in keeping their computers secure? How are they supposed to store and use their BTC? Hardware wallets like the BitSafe and Trezor aim to improve wallet security while remaining useable by ordinary people.

Your project sounds good

I would not align and taint your brand with the SCUM of crypto if you want any chance of getting any adoption by the community

Big Fucking Lies !!!

I think the lack of caring stemmed from the offering appear to come from BFL rather than anything else.

I definitely plan on picking up a hardware wallet at some point.  I think it's one of many critical puzzle pieces required to make bitcoin usable to the point of potential wide end user adoption.

Good luck on the project.
