Actually three options:
1 - VE is a total dolt and is full of shit.
2 - Ken is mining and scamming.
3 - Ken is mining and ready to shower us with hundreds of Bitcoin in dividends.
You crack me up DTS, you really do. There are a fucking lot more options, like:
4 - Engineering is taking more time than expected because of cooling, power stability or PCB problems
5 - the eASIC samples have bugs, either in the masks or in production
6 - the limited order was placed but got pushed back by eASIC because Apple ordered a 100m batch of chips for the next iPad, contractural obligations be damned.
Obviously the chance that we are mining with 10 Exa-hashes/s in secrecy is fucking slim, stop either bitching or being delusional. No, most likely you will not walk away from this a millionaire, tough shit.
