They'll ship... eventually. The owners/operators are way in over their head and have no idea how long it will actually take to do things because they've never done them before and keep running into unexpected issues.
Exactly, posted this a while ago how it is crazy how they are still allowing pre-orders.
How will they maintain their lifestyle without that pre-order money coming in? They even announced "shipping" recently to milk the pre-order cash cow some more.
thanks for sharing
I dont think they have started shipping anything other than Jalapenos atm....
Has anyone actually received a Jal?
The problem is that most people who believe in bitcoin, myself included, look at mining as our major investment vehicle this year. When you only have under 20btc to your name today this kind of decision can make or break you in the next year.
I know that peope should be aware of the high risks involved with mining bitcoins but I also think people should be able to get honest information on those risks.

Relax, guys. It's just a gambling... Pay some money and enjoy your red/black guesses.

I agree they are not a scam. just incompetent. Those chinese AVALON beat them by a huge margin.

Has anyone seen the 50GH/s system yet?

Isnt there a way that some "Guys" like Police, do a controll to this company
And slow them down even more then half a year? No, thanks.
Nah, why stop the preorders if you still make Money with it? As far as i know, they never told you when your miner will arrive.
So if they semd the, 2020 they still´ve done their job and lurking for the Money.

Apparently I don't have enough posts to post outside of this forum, so I will just repeat that BFL is not a scam, but they are likely guilty of incompetence or overpromising.
Agreed. They are certainly not scammers, but they do have a habit of overpromising, and their communication overall is terrible.
LEGIT REPLY: My friend supposedly Recieved his Asic today from BTL. Hes still trying to get it setup though. apparently its pretty complex to setup. I'll let yall know if he gets it working or not.
How can running a miner be complex? I would love details on this, as I have obviously never used an asic miner.

I'm guessing that it is a Jalapeño? If you can find out his order date, that would be great information for us.
With regards to it being complex to set up, is he completely new to bitcoin? It should be very easy to get going with any of the miner software that currently supports it.
anyone receive theirs yet?
I think it's great that BFL is shipping. Good job guys. I went with an Avalon, still waiting on my batch 2.

I don't think it's a true scam but they have absolutely no way of meeting demand right now. Everyone's always impatient but they've got thousands of preorders and they don't have a ton of employees. I'm sure these things take awhile to build and stuff.

be careful
