Great news! Why some people didn't like that it is sponsored by Butterfly Labs. I didn't hear about them
BFL is in hot water right now because they didn't deliver pre-order items for insanely long periods of time, they have been accused of using asics to mine their own coin while others were still waiting to receive their orders, and there was something about the owner/s supposedly using some of the pre-order money to buy a house (it was supposed to be used to develop the cards.) Not sure how much has been proven yet, but there's a lot of shit in the woodpile.
At least they are willing to share.
Maybe it's a sign the company wants to make big improvements and stick around for the future.
