This.
If the engineers aren't in on it, then they would have done everything they can to produce working ASICs. If they can produce working ASICs, why would they (BFL higher ups) bother with a scam?
If the engineers are in on it, their professional career is dead, so the scam would need to support them for the rest of their life. I somehow don't think they have enough in pre orders for that.
This constant denial where everything is black or white really beggars belief of how the world works
Madoff had 400+ professionals working away thinking & doing what they do..stop & think that this can not be applied to BFL because an engineer did some work....yeah
They maybe ligit who knows...but to deny the existance of the posability that the world may be round belongs to a time gone past
Maybe u are the catholic chruch circa "1200AD"
