Here's the latest update

Why are we waiting?

+1 Props Josh

Even they are real... Rising price will provide too much temptations for big fuckup to be happen. However I did discribed that already (and gmaxwell tried to shut my mouth).

I see this community loves fairy tales, not the sad truth. If I say truth - I get ignores and troll tag =) But I don't care.

What if asic's are real? So Josh is still a goof. Did you see his last update? I'll paraphrase

"The date is still on although its not a firm date and if its a worse case scenario it will be a little later but not as late as we all though it could be cuz that would suck and make me look like a liar but we all know that I don't lie cus I'm as slippery as a politician now hand me your god damn babies so I can kiss them....Fuck you errr I mean thank you!!!"

You would think someone with enough shit coming out his mouth would choke on it every once in a while.

Then we will be

Miners will buy them 

If your question is what happens to Bitcoin, the answer is, at most, a little bit of increased excitement for about a week (depending on when they become available with regards to the difficulty cycle). Other than that, a block is a block is a block.

what happens when ASIC's are real

you forgot the "empty box with fans"...i mean ASICszzz

I bet it's their wives. From what I heard that they're not the same girl's as last years. Maybe their wives were upset that they decided to come by this time.

Women are so jealous.

Is that guy in the back wearing a button down shirt? At a tech expo? Christ, did no one ever bother to tell him how not to dress like a dork? New wealthy elite, my ass.

Women are unresposible persons.

Cheese!

I understand why your angry. I also understand the need for forums.  I don't agree with your post.

I want to know when someone could possibly be a scammer. When a thread is stupid I don't read it. I also believe your post has as much right to be here as their posts.

Thats what freedom of speech is imo  Who's team are you on? and who's team you think I'm on?

Lines are not so defined now, Right?

I wonder when Bitcoin-facing businesses, BFL included, will realize that conferences, trade shows, and such are an opportunity to introduce Bitcoin to the uninitiated, instead of wasting time preaching to the choir or staging incestoid incidents related to issues only bitcoiners understand. Specifically, BFL should have made their working FPGA the centerpiece, instead of the highly controversial, and in fact sensitive, topic of ASICs. Non-bitcoiners really don't give a damn, and we all just look stupid in front of them. Bitcoin looks stupid. Inaba and Micon are actually on the same team - the team that has been doing damage, no matter what their intentions are. I hope they realize this, and finally focus properly when it comes to public events. Public events - this forum included.

although BFL's PR has been completely shoddy.

i truly believe that micon is now just repeating himself posting the same video link multiple times which has now meandered into a never ending argument with no set goal to be achieved.

the simple point is BFL have many many failings. BFLJosh/inaba, a coder should not have been employed as a PR guy and BFL itself, should have worked out months ago how many chips they would receive in the first batch. and closed pre-orders once that quota of orders was reached. only to re open the pre-order payment page once they get a quota for their second batch.

and not to be spending money on google sponsored adverts or promising people equipment if they advertise the products, yet to be built, or estimated to be built by X date.

basically if they were promised 10k of chips in first batch they would have priced the cost of this. and set their pre-order pricing accordingly dependant on how many chips are required per product. all R&D is inclusive in the pre-order price.

thus no requirement to continually request funds because the cost of the pre-order pays for that chip amount, end product build and labour costs.  if they are proposing to make 1000* units in the first batch then they only need to accept 1000* pre-orders. before cutting off the payment page, locking in those people into batch 1.
(*numbers are not factual, just illustrative examples)

i advise them to close off their pre-order payment page until they have clear deadlines, clear production yields and clear costing prices for batch 2. and set the limits of available pre-orders. then closing off that months pre-order payment page once the limit is reached. to lock in customers to those deadlines.

I think it was a normal quarter. Nothing unusual about it on either side.
