I no longer work for Butterfly Labs (BFL)

[crazyearner]

Well looks like BFL is going down the drain and people working for the mare resigning from their company. Wont be long before more relies their not doing business good and the rest of their employers start leaving and the business falls apart. I bet 50BTC that the final remaining person who works for them is Josh lol

[faetos]

BCP what do you do for bfl? Are you the gimp they bring out on special occasions? Have you been moonlighting for KnC when they use the gimp on their customers?

[cxboyminer]

Josh is going to the bitcoin conference in Hong Kong. I am going too and will beat the crap out of him!

Ok, he is or at leas was a Mod there. With knowledge of the warehouse, shipments, production runs, etc. So if he doesn't work for BFL that means he is a partner/owner/etc. He is just trying to be ambiguous about his relationship with the entity. Pretty sad.

He is still a mod on the forums.

I believe SLok is a good guy and he has been very helpful to anybody  on the BFL forum needing help. I feel he does not work for BFL as I have seen his responses on the forum and his answers were not that of a person with inside knowledge of the internal workings of the company but would try and steer a person in the right direction for help and I have seen him even make post as to call out BFL on a few things. With that being said I have since sold all my BFL singles and went with S1's miners and have not followed the BFL forums for 3 months or more.

How long has BFL been shipping the Monarch to its secret customer base?

You dodged it three times so we now know its true, now we want to know how long?

No Monarchs have been shipped but they are shipping the cock off the Monark!

I changed the question slightly, they can't get the 'Monarch' to work, so whatever they are shipping will be called something different.

The guy you call Goat is next to Josh on his right. Bruce is to the left of the bearded guy (Phin). I have no idea who the other two guys are. I have no idea if BFL sold 28nm chips or not but am damn sure they were on PCBs and made into miner then delivered to various hosting outfits mostly in the KC area owned and operated by the same gain. For a person who never worked for BFL I sure do know a lot of what went on as well as the 50-60 who were assembling the miners in February forward. Very little was mailed from the dock except for replacement parts or rare orders for the oldline miners. Very little packing has taken place since the first of the year because where the miners were going the hosting cos. weren't far away.

To the person who said that there were no Mexicans at the plant this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSu5Yyc1bEM (I just found some funny BFL videos for the time-----WOW!)

I bet they have been selling to colo companies the whole time. Including for their 65NM chip products.

Pre-orders to raise cash. Build equipment. Sell large quantities of in-hand equipment to bulk purchase farms (because they wont drop 3M on a preorder. They need immediate delivery.). Try to catch up with the original consumer orders after the farms aren't interested anymore.

Thus defrauding the consumers.

It seems pretty obvious now.

Classic bait and switch.  Elon Musk did the same thing with the Tesla car pre-orders, but at least he readily admitted that he did.

BFL can't keep playing the "Oh well we made our best effort guess of when development would be done for our products."

If that is true then they have THE WORST development and planning team in history.

Pushing of deadlines over and over and over is unacceptable. I thought the first batch of suckers who bought BFL vaporware would have set a precedent for people to learn from their mistakes. I guess not.
