There is one way your gonna sell the 500BTC of bonds you want to and that is by explaining in detail the current financial, mining and legal situation of LRM.
How many coins are currently in the 'buy new hardware fund'?
What happens if you only sell 10BTC of contracts, 100BTC, 250BTC etc?
When will new hardware be delivered?
Have you received the refund from BFL yet? Is that money going towards new equipment? If not what is happening with it?
Come on Zach, we played ball and switched to the new contracts - take a deep breath and fully explain LRM's current situation and then we can all properly evaluate your offering and maybe we will finally see it for the good news that you said it was going to be.
I'll put something together, but to ease concerns with the BFL issue. I have requested the refund and received an email stating that it's being processed. Just a waiting game now and every penny of that is going into the new hardware purchase/setup.
The matter of when hardware will be delivered is up to which deal we move forward with. I feel as though the MBP franchise program has much more promise than purchasing hardware outright as it works into us owning it outright rather quickly and allows all upfront costs to go toward buildout making the mine larger.
I'll answer the other questions when I have another moment regarding partially raised funds and financial situation.
