Good question.

One might think they could have setup at least their infrastructure in the last couple months.

But their order tracking system ~~is also fucked up~~ still has room for improvement

I just visualize the face of someone that has ordered a Mini Rig, opens the box - and there's a Jalapeno.

Awww, Frizzy is starting to crack. Shocked

That whole BFL hate thing was just a facade. You're secretly in love with Inaba aren't you!

Guys, guys, you're over-reacting; by mid next week they might have an entire functioning testing rig for the chips! I even heard their assembly benches have nearly been delivered. Amazing.

-they have yet to show a prototype

Of course they haven't. The blockchain fork happened when BFL tried their fucked up chips on the live network.

Scammer how?

TL:DR,

He's trying to get people to cancel their orders so he can move up in the order book / cost BFL money for not delivering on time.

I admit that I'm trolling, and that I don't have a big understanding of the iusses.
However, BFL claimed to have their chips ready almost one month ago. Again, I'm not a expert, but what I know is this:
-they have yet to show a prototype
-they have a large outflux of money due to the refunds.
-they are trying to get new orders using a lot of money on AdWords (probably in the range of 100'000$/month), this should guarantee them a positive money flow, for now.
-if the design of this chip is flawed, they will have a hard time to find the money for another 45nm run. If I'm correct these costs as much as 1 million dollar each.
-if they don't show a working prototype in, I guess, one month, their design is flawed.

If this happens, everyone with a preorder will lose his money.

Good luck, BFL fanboys!
