The printing press heralded the end of the Dark Ages and made the Enlightenment possible, but it took another three centuries before any country managed to put freedom of the press beyond the reach of legislators. So it may take a while before cryptocurrencies are free of the AML-NSA-KYC surveillance plague.

Hrm, I dunno…. there's a waiting list to get on our waiting list. But if you buy my dilapidated, rusted-out old Kia from me for $20,000 I promise I'll let you trade it back in and give you full credit towards a Butterfly Swatter XL (*) - e (*) if it materializes

Why is that silly? Its completely in line with academic papers and even a SHA256 research chip which promised ~40x efficiency improvement for SHA256 hashing from 65nm FPGA to 130nm ASIC. Honestly, of all people, I am surprised you would not believe this.

Take the Blue pill you get BFL = government organisation ( invalid business license, delays with shipping products and announcements, out of the blue 10 year experience but sells only to BTC users ) Take the Red pill you get Bitcoin = freedom. I sell tinfoil hats ! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

If you're not excited by the idea of being an early adopter 'now', then you should come back in three or four years and either tell us "Told you it'd never work!" or join what should, by then, be a much more stable and easier-to-use system. - GA
It is being worked on by smart people. -DamienBlack

Yep. This elden tyrell guy got big game. He spent $500 just for this. Could have used that to buy 3 Jalapeno coffee warmers for 10.5 GHash/s in the future presumably. Guy must be mad BFL ASIC screwed over his bitstream licensing plans. Don't jump off the bridge mate ! There is still hope ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

It's only 80$ for a PRWeb release. It says it on the page you linked to. This service, in my experience, is highly used by scam artists and penny stock promoters because it is cheap. It certainly does not brighten my impression of BFL. Why is a non-publicly traded company in a niche industry issuing press releases?
I can't begin to speculate on the next product BFL will develop, but what we do know is that it will be exchangable 1:1 with past pre-orders.
