I no longer work for Butterfly Labs (BFL)

[bcp19]

bcp you are one sad excuse of a human being.

Sadly you have like 3 pieces of a 10,000 piece puzzle and you think you know what's what.  I think that makes YOU the sad excuse for a human being.

bcp19, do you work for Butterfly Labs ?

Yep, started there last Sept, it was bound to come out at some point.  PG can confirm it.  Beyond that, a lot of nibbknot's statement is completely false.  Since you tin-foil hat types will believe his/her lies, I won't waste my breath.  

So the one thing he has correct, you work for BFL? C'mon, if that is indeed true then why would he lie about everything else?

I was skeptical at first. Now I believe everything nibbknot said.

Nope, I'm not paid to post on here, I've said that many times.  What I post on here is of my own free will.  Just because you believe I am being paid means you are starting from an incorrect premise and therefore are coming to an incorrect conclusion.  Everything you derive from that is also false.

Everything makes so much sense now.

Forgive me for not believing a word that comes out of your mouth.

You can believe what you want, that doesn't make it correct.  Go ahead and have your field-day, I know you'll repeat the falsehoods told to you this day many times over to justify your already misguided perceptions.

Thanks very much for your candour.

At least when you do get them, you'll make your money back, even if it takes longer than you planned, if I understand correctly how the whole thing works.

This is wrong, no regular miner will make back what it cost them to buy these devices ever unless they proceed to sell them.

I'm confused. Sorry. If a person can't make their money back on them Monarch Miners, then why did people order them paying a few hundred dollars a piece for? I'm guessing they could be used for other things as well thus making them more valuable. Or, like you said, flip them for a profit. That makes sense, come to think of it.

That's because people who preorder things believe they might be one of the lucky ones should the hardware arrive quickly and they be the first to mine with them before the diff rises and make a killing. This happened precisely once in the history of ASIC hardware for bitcoin mining, while delays and guaranteed losses happened with virtually every other piece of hardware that has come out since. Some obviously worse than others. The other mistake is most new miners don't remotely understand how much bitcoin they really are going to make, nor do they understand the way diff rises, and always believe they're buying a money making machine.

Do tell. What are my apparently misguided perceptions ?

I never said he/she had one thing correct, I'd say about 50% of his/her statement is true, but the 50% that is not is the part you'll believe above the rest.

Why do you assume anyone cares what you say?

Your credibility has been reduced from 1% to 0%.

[ibminer]

I am far from a BFL fan but am curious as to why BFL wouldn't be able to somewhat easily narrow down who this post belongs to, assuming it is true?   OP acts as if he doesn't want to reveal too much because he doesn't want BFL finding out who he is, but unless BFL is laying off multiple people at a time, it should be easy for BFL to know who would post all of this.

bcp19, unless you are paid specifically to try to defend BFL in these forms you should probably stop while you are merely behind. Seriously... no one will believe you here now. You should do your job and not give people more ammunition to throw your way. Any rational person immediately understands why BFL is reviled here. Working there gets that bad goo all over you. You will be hated as much as Josh pretty quickly. Save yourself while you can... if it isn't too late already.  You should practice saying "I work there but I really don't know what happens to all the boards we produce."

Like I said, Bruce is a nice cool guy and glad he fessed up. I'm calling it a night all because I have to work in the morning.

That would explain lots of stuff. Especially how BFL can continue to be in business without delivering product. The money has to come from somewhere right? Now maybe we know.

Well, I was almost gone. This is so true. James of HashTrade/CoinWare ordered thousands of miners late last year. I think it was even in the Kansas City paper I once read in the break room when the order was placed. And it is Gibson since somebody already guess it. Wasn't sure how much I can say on this forum board.

Darn, I'm trying to post this but you people keep commenting. By the way, everybody that wanted a monarch miner that has been working at Butterfly Labs for awhile gets one for free as a Christmas present last year. Some already got theirs while others have to wait. Not sure if Bruce got his early or not. I'm pretty sure you can exchange them for cash, but we are not suppose to sell them till this fall sometime. Those that don't mine, like me, got a bonus for Christmas.

Like I said, I like Bruce as a person and never had a problem with him at the plant, but not sure what his angle is here, nor care.

To the guy that mentioned some lawsuit, like I said I don't want to get involved with any of that having to think about my family and all.

I just tried to post again and saw 9 more replies. Like WTF! I need to go to bed.

[bcp19]

You speak like I should care what you think.  I don't.  *I* know the truth of the matter, you do not.  I also know you'll believe the lies told this day because there's the bombshell that's been dropped about my employment.  That's the thing you all fail to see... this person has mixed lies and truths in such a way that you think it's all true.  I can't wait for Bickfail to take up the baton and run with the lies.  That's what makes this so much fun, being one of the few who know the truth and laughing at those of you who are truly clueless and who believe the lies told daily on here.

To the guy that mentioned some lawsuit, like I said I don't want to get involved with any of that having to think about my family and all.

I think most people can respect that position and obviously it's your choice. 

BFL has a caused a lot of damage to the mining community, LOTS of people looking for blood so don't be surprised if you get a fair amount of attention with a controversial post like this.

[Unacceptable]

BCP is chatting with Josh as we speak & they'll DOX their socks off to find out who you are,so be ready for the process servers nib  

Best of luck & thanks for the info,if you need legal help,just set up a donation addy for BTC.I'm sure you'll get the financial help ASAP  

[gallery2000]

So is Sonny a cheater?  I would like to spill another secret about Sonny.  I heard Sonny is also into guys.  I heard he was flirting with that Puerto Rican guy at the end of the assembly line.  

I left most recently, and since I'm no longer under their control I can now share with anybody interested two important things.

One, bcp19, whose first name is Bruce, DOES work for BFL. Ask him and I'm sure he'll say yes, but if he doesn't, I have no problem with linking to pictures of him while employed at the plant. He's been there since last fall. I seriously don't know what game he's playing on this forum and what he's trying to accomplished, but I'm pretty sure it ain't good. To be fair, he is a nice guy.

Second. BFL received chips months ago that were intended for what you guys consider the Monarch. Thousands of miners have already made at BFL's plant using those new chips. Ask Bruce that also. He knows. Since you're now curious as to where all them miners went and are continuing to go, here... http://www.coinware.io/. Moreover, HashTrade, NimbusMining, LiquidBits, and Netsolus. The lead guy for CoinWare is named James (I'm not stating his last name because I don't want to get in trouble, but I'm sure you smart guys can figure it out). James visits the plant a lot, walking around assembling unescorted then heads to the offices of management to discuss whatever.

This post is valid https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=262052.msg6877963#msg6877963 because I was there when two guys from HashFast (don't get the name mixed up with HashTrade) walked the plant with Sonny, David, and Josh.

I honestly don't want to get mixed up with this mess because I have a family and all. BFL treated me pretty fairly while I was there, but feel it important for you guys who have millions still tied up and waiting for equipment to be aware. It's a shame that you guys who ordered first will probably be the last to get your miners. At least when you do get them, you'll make your money back, even if it takes longer than you planned, if I understand correctly how the whole thing works. Still, it's a screwed up deal.

One more thing, for what it's worth. Everybody in the plant knows about Sonny's past, and some not mentioned here, and we all joke about how we are (was for me, now) working for crooks and scumbags, most the time in Spanish when management is not around, of course.

Heck, I might as well add this tidbit, even though it doesn't matter none except to Sonny's girlfriend. Sonny has been screwing one of the pretty Mexican girls in assembly since early last year. I'm not going to mention her name for obvious reasons, but everybody at the plant knows it except Sonny's girlfriend who have a son together. I don't see that relationship lasting too much longer due to them fighting a lot, where then Sonny may start seeing the Mexican girl full time then.

Sorry if I said too much. All I wanted to say was about Bruce and CoinWare and how you guys are getting screwed big time.

Peace.

Being a part of a company that is fucking all of the little guys to pad the wallets of their friends and you're "laughing" because you're privy to the truth and everyone else is caught up in the bullshit lie after lie they've been fed.

I feel pity for you.  You may be a "nice cool guy" at work, but your true persona shows here and it's really quite sad.

Thanks nibbknot  

Damn, I need to go to bed. Remember I have a wife and don't want her mad at me.

That's the guy. The one with the beard. He was there that day with Bruce. He didn't come back after lunch though. Just Bruce who hung around for awhile.

I've seen that guy in the red shirt on the left next to Josh at the plant a lot also. I assume you know his name because I rather not say it in fear of getting in trouble.

I apologize if I somehow started some kind of hornet nest for that was not my intent. Just relaying some facts.

Just tried to post again and saw a new post.

Seriously? This is controversial? I was just trying to help, people. Apologies again if I did something wrong.

Wow! Thanks guys. I never had bitcoins before and had to get a wallet so I went to blockchain.info and got one: 1zS6bFrAjLw6QY6rDmPFBHZUJoVGoNDvv

Never realized how fast a person could get their own wallet. I always thought bitcoins had to be mined or purchased first. The instructions were really simple to follow so I don't think I screwed it up.

Depending on how much I get I will buy something special for my wife's mom who is very very sick. We hope she makes it till her birthday in July which we all think she will.

Thank you again everybody.

Tried to post again but new posts to address I guess.

Sonny is not gay. Josh is bi, though. Maybe I shouldn't have said that but I don't think he comes on this forum since Butterfly Labs has their own I believe because I've heard Jody talk about it.
