I have hurt no one. If you've been hurt by bitcoin, in whatever fashion, you seriously need to re-examine your life and reassess your priorities. Putting yourself in a position where you can be hurt by an experimental currency and bleeding edge technology is not just stupid, it's completely irresponsible and you shouldn't be allowed near a computer, much less money. On top of that, the timeline for the ASICs was set and announced long, long before I came on board. As I've said, again in countless places, going forward if I have any say in the situation, BFL will not be announcing timelines beyond "When it's ready."
This is a lie. Surely as Bitcoin is the cause of you having customers and clientele, can the act of not holding up to your promises cause the same amount of loss in others. If I had invested with bitcoin instead of your machines to mine them (2x singles), I could have potentially made $80,000. I would have been married by now. :|
Do you think your machines will make me that money? Until they do I will always be remembering how you "bait and switched" me.
