I told they are scam many months ago. Few persons believed.

We don't believe you because you tend to make unbelievable claims. For example you said "ASIC will not be here for a long time" and 3-4 months later Avalon ships hundreds of units!

Be more correct, and then, maybe, we will start believing you Smiley

Still selling good boards for 7 BTC plus shipping and escrow, but I'm getting close to sold out.

Thats a bit much for me atm. Plus im in the USA.

I'm in the US as well.

Cool lets be friends.

The FPGAs are *finished and polished* product, easy to use, just plug it in and let it do it's work.

You should at one point open up one of those "polished" products and have a marvel at the mess of hot glue and velcro inside.

So if I wanted to buy an FPGA is there one you would recommended?

Talk to Yohan at enterpoint.

Or bid on my auction.  there are a few slow ones up for bids there still going for a bargain price.

Can you link me?

And thank you for help me I appreciate it! If you have a valid BTC related website I will add it to my sites list for free Smiley

1. Buy as many BFL as you can.
2. Say it's a scam all over the forum.
3. Make people scared to buy, more hashing power for yourself.
4. Huh
5. Profit.

Sorry for outing your methods. (You know who you are.)


lick bfls asss  prove it to them in hope of winning one of there none existing asics prizes


go and blow josh in the steam room  u fruitcake

Damn kid you got some anger in you

Their polished "proprietary implementation of both FPGA and ASIC technology" product (which based on sanded Altera chips actually) is awful creature with three fans (one at bottom is really looks strange) and half of these bricks throttles heavy at room temperature.
Looks like you will have same troubles with they next gen devices.

I want the facts, I want the skeptics points of view, the supporters points of view, fuck even the morons points of view. Everything.

Oh, and to boot, I made this shirt and bought it; so if you like it you can buy it too ^.^
LOL clever. Start a thread begging people to start a flame war about BFL, the deadest horse on BCT, and advertise your new shirt, just like THIS THREAD, and THIS ONE.
This is the best shirt on that site http://skreened.com/bitcoin/block-finder

Put some colored BTC on each cube and I'd buy it.

What color do you want?

Thanks, although I like my "I Mine Hard" shirt better than my block finder one.

Oh no, my cover is blown.

But in reality, praying might be the most effective way to get BFL ASICs some day.

i Purchased multiple units.
2xLittle SC (upgrade from jalapeno), 2xFPGA Upgrade and 2xSingle SC. That's 300Ghash right there.
First order in july i think, full expecting they will not deliver early on, infact, i was thinking of getting FPGA but knowing they will take 6months to deliver even those, i went for the SCs to get in the early batches.

Yes, i worry sometimes will they deliver or not, but the Risk VS Gain ratio is for myself was so far in the black i decided to go for them, infact, i made 2 purchases during this month. (1*Single SC, 2*FPGA Upgrade)
For offsetting the risk on ASIC i also spent on bASIC and ASICMINER. Was considering Avalon but they looked too scammy, and seeing they have delivery issues as well, and the unit is something i can't definitely operate at home, i'm kinda glad i didn't even attempt to get into batch #1.

When i see more proof i intend to purchase couple more Single SCs, or going for Minirig, partly from the Single SC profits and partly from ASICMINER divs+selling those shares when above 1BTC/Share which i expect to happen within 1½ months. The ASICMINER shares i got, if i sold them right now i could probably purchase already a Minirig, but i'm not really too keen on putting down that kind of money on BFL just yet, i want Single SCs in my hands first.

Also during the summer i will move my mining gear to a datacenter. Secure and climate controlled.
bASIC has yet to refund or even reply to me.

and yes, BFL sometimes worries me, but i try not to stress over it.
In hindsight 20/20 i didn't purchase enough ASICMINER shares early on, should have for higher offset on risks, but ASICMINER is that much opaque i didn't want to really. In the end, that was all that remained from GLBSE fiasco (Gigamining, what a scam). All other shares were a complete loss for me (probs 60BTC+ worth) as i'm yet to see any divs, refunds etc. from any of the other shares.

That's how i tend to roll, if i'm making an investment i want to offset the risk by spreading the whole investment in multiple choices, so if one goes downhill i still have something else and not complete loss. That strategy has well paid off so far, in BTC and IRL investments.

Why choose BFL? The FPGAs are *finished and polished* product, easy to use, just plug it in and let it do it's work. I hate the other FPGA products because you need to purchase power supplies, casings, fans etc. you just can't plug'em in and have them going on. for bASIC i had to order in some power plugs up front etc. and full knowing it's going to be messy setup. I want my setups to be tidy.
Nevermind that BFL's offer is on the better side on power efficiency, thus their lifetime will be longer, therefore profits are bigger, and cooling expenses lower.

I shut down my GPU farm last summer, it was too much work to keep it all stable, messy, noisy and too power hungry. One of my GPU rigs even burned due to bad chinese PCIe connector Sad Plus the final nail was when i blew 3 5850/5870 GPUs within couple of weeks and the replacement cards had severe heat & stability issues (purchased locally 2nd hand from gamers). at once i had 5 fully outfitted GPU rigs running, with total of 16 GPUs running, and 5 GPUs sitting on shelve waiting for me to bother to assemble another one. Today it would be worth to power it all up again tho, and been thinking maybe i should boot them up again until little scs arrive Smiley

How about you start with having a moderated thread.

I have a FPGA single so the ASIC was "only" about $700 down which I put on a credit card. For me, waiting is really the best option. I can't get an ASIC for anywhere near $700 and if BFL folds, I can always do a charge back, especially since I have never done one before.

I'll let it ride and file a paypal dispute, like everyone else will, if they end up trying to fuck everyone.


You guys do know that the chargeback window normally closes about 90 days after the purchase is made, right?

Well I ordered mine in the first week of March, so I have some time to be hopeful. I mean if they never deliver then what is PayPal going to do, just say afuckayou? I am being serious, I really don't know.
