In my personal opinion there is something very stinky about BFL:
NEW info. BFL are the biggest liars it appears
- No certain delivery dates.
- No pictures or schemes or anything.
- Very limited information (actually there is no information on the ASICs).
- No one answers their phone.
- They answer your e-mail within 2-3 weeks.
- All their answers are with a maybe or possibly.
- I never got it why are BITCOIN payments preferred.
- The broke the law of e-bay - 2 months to appeal and ask for a refund with their 2 to 4 to 6 months delivery - maybe.
- They are a business registered in Massachusetts on the name of some Mexican woman.
- They are playing with millions yet their website is made with WordPress.
- Up to today no one has either seen, touched or heard their ASICs. (even remotely)
So what is your opinion, I personally believe that they are developing something but they are quite away from delivering it or with the given characteristics.
Some of my friends think that all of it might be a lie.
EDIT1:So after
3 months this is what BLF has to say:
https://forums.butterflylabs.com/bfl-forum-miscellaneous/437-asic-update-26-november-2012-a.html"fuzzy" date
Got to love that!
EDIT2:FOUR months now, still nothing while other manufacturers, are posting pics of their real chips!
EDIT3:FIVE months have passed and now it appears that all ASIC companies are lying.
AVALON are trying to make us believe that they shipped a week ago, but no one has received anything, and DEEPBIT blew it officially -
DeepBit Reclaimer ASIC EDIT3: -
HAHAHA HA ......7 months!!!
