If you worked for HashFast, would you want to keep your identity private?

Is it confirmed this whole thing was a scam? I thought product shipped to luke jr or something? I remember pics of shit in and out of the box ready to go...

I do not think it is a straight up scam.. just fraudulent marketing and business practices getting us to order something that was impossible to deliver by oct30.. then switching to a USD refund when clearly they told us it would be a btc refund...

what a fukin train wreck

@ PG

Lets play six degrees of seperation.

Find me a connection between BFL and HashFast (however indirect).

I can do it in two: Josh Lee = Josh Zerlan. Grin

Phin STOP. You are starting to make me paranoid. Thank god I am not in Colorado or else you would have pushed me over the edge.
Grab the steel bar and wiggle it a bit, your frontal lobe needs a kickstart.
HashFast, post something. Doesn't even need to be that positive. Even a video of a board smoking would make me feel better.

Lee is a pretty generic last name.. it doesn't necessarily mean they are related.

I'm aware--only the #1 populous country on Earth and all, but it would be interesting to know.

So. Has anybody re-done the calculations with the new shipping date?
What is the estimated total BTC what can be mined by one BJ unit, without the MPP?

End what would the MPP add, if it's shipped 1,2,3,4 months after shipping the BJs?

I am curious to see what kind of loss would it mean to just accept the shipment.

(These calculations could be crucial for those who still have not decided whether or not to cancel their orders, and demand a full refund.)

So... I have updated my spreadsheet with the latest difficulty data.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Auya3iRE6az1dGtKTGZDXzVDeFVjbHl3VmNsT216dHc&usp=sharing

The model says that if they provide the MPP and initial order on 1/28, at documented 425GH/s they will combined generate ~22BTC in their lifetime (60% loss from 60BTC purchase price).
To get close to break even (i.e. within 20% of purchase BTC price), they would need to provide MPP on 1/28 and 10x rather than 4x, which would return ~49BTC for an 18% loss.
If they slip a week and ship Feb. 3rd, it goes to 12x to get close... ~51BTC. It quickly gets much worse as they miss more deadlines.

You can play with the model yourself by creating your own copy of the spreadsheet and updating the delivery dates and the MPP multiplier.

Who is Charles Lee?

Created Litecoin, Bobby Lee is founder of BTC China. They're brothers. If Jung/Josh is in on this, it'd be one hell of a conspiracy.

Another "time is everything" quote: http://www.chipestimate.tv/aboutus.php

Quote

"Time to market is critical in the fast emerging bitcoin mining market," remarks Josh Lee, founder and CEO of Uniquify, who notes that the design highlights the quality of Uniquify’s work. "First silicon worked as expected, proving Uniquify and HashFast can deliver leading-edge silicon in a short timeframe, and a testament to Uniquify’s expertise and ability to quickly turn a design without sacrificing quality."

I'm still curious if Josh (Jung) Lee is related to Charles Lee.

It'd be both Bobby and Charles' brother, then, no? I read an article on them not too long ago, too bad we can't find out the rest of the family.
