This is the assumption that he would have sold the bitcoin then at that time .123btc still = .123btc. Do I scream bullshit about buying 333 mega hash miners at 1btc each? No because at the time I was willing to pay it, I don't assume I would have held on to those coins and sold at some mystic time.
The assumption is that if he didn't buy this unit he would have bought something else. At the same time for the same exchange rate. Its a fair and solid assumption. You have no reason to argue this. Why do you continually defend this company, even when you have no ground to stand on?
Bullshit, it's not like people decide I'm going out shopping today for an fpga and I will be spending x amount today no matter what. This is ridiculous, and not a fair or solid assumption, I'm not defending the company but the idea of that everyone keeps saying they lost money by getting the exact btc amount they were refunded. Look anywhere on this forum and you'll see the same shit, hodl, hodl, hodl but in here apparently everyone was spending that exact amount or cashing it out perfectly and rebuying in to only make money.
Come the fuck on, and I'm not defending the company in any way, but being mad that it's now available on Amazon is a joke. Fuck SQRL for all I care, I took my Gamble and I still think it will pay off, if you're so mad about $300 you probably shouldn't fucking be in crypto and especially buying hardware because it's a hell of a gamble all the way through.
Well your wrong. He almost certainly would have allocated those coins to another device. Perhaps not that exact day, but in that general timeframe. Most people do buy gear in strict cycles, many based on credit cycles like the guy above. Damn straight he would have allocated that money towards something else. Something that would have made a lot more than zero dollars in six-nine months.
I never bought anything, but if I had I would have spent a lot more than $300. Almost everyone who bought from sqrrl was spending in the thousands as well. Its in defense of the company you continually call out people for "getting mad" and "complaining about a loss". Its a very legitimate complaint, people have the right to explain their frustration on a public forum dedicated to the product. Where else can they express their problems with non-working gear that people paid good money for and were basically lied to about.
They absolutely should not be selling more units until they work. Its super shady. And the fact is that people who bought back in June got zero use out of their unit before it went public in January, the next year. That is cause for complaint. Its just wrong.
