While people continue to feed the trolls and discuss rape, I suggest we deny them the airspace and consider more constructive discussion.
It seems that there is quite a big knowledge gap among shareholders in terms of the technical process of making an ASIC miner. Words and phrases are being banded around by people who clearly don't understand the process and yet it seems no-one is keen to step up and attempt an explanation of where ActM might be in that process. The way I (mis) understood the recent announcement was that the RTL thingy applied to the boards themselves and not the chips. Could it be that the chips are all fine and ready to go but the boards are being redesigned?
Here's what I propose. A more technical minded shareholder posts a brief explanation of the process as a kind of timeline in list form. We then discuss where we think we 'could be' on that list and from that we formulate specific questions to put to Ken. There are enough clues out there to do just that and I would gladly step up but am lacking the technical knowledge to do so.
I'm more than happy for someone else to suggest a better use of our energies, but the sooner we steer this conversation away from talk of rape and fantasy prosecutions resulting in a quicker fantasy implosion of this business, the sooner this whole episode can be put behind us and we can move on. And that's what will happen at some stage, this episode will be behind us and we will have moved on. Now who wants to speed this up with me?
