At this point I feel I can address some of what I have read on this forum that is just crazy talk:

There is no 16nm chip. Wow. Now that would be something. New chip designs were in development that  would apparently get more performance out of 28nm.

There is no secret mining bunker. The liquidbits kickback deal was a bit of a surprise to me, but the actual amount of GHS shipped to liquidbits was fairly negligible and I'm sure they never paid anything back to HF considering what they were owed. There was absolutely no HF mining operation beyond burn-in and engineering. There was never a surplus of hardware, and when there was, there was nowhere to plug it in.

There were no "used" boards sold to anyone, including VMC. Every single board was tested, and that test process involved applying thermal paste. Without it the chips overheat in seconds. In the interest of shipping rapidly, the paste was not cleaned off the dies by the contract manufacturer.

There is no money. There really hasn't been any money for a long time. I am not sure why it took so long for management to realize this. Most of the haphazard decisions and erratic behavior can be explained by a lack of money and hardware that only worked perfectly at about 75% yield. There was also a bit of an obsession with setting the performance bar for hardware at near the theoretical maximum at the expense of yield and reliability.

There was no extravagant spending, no gold plated yachts, Caribbean vacations or anything else. If anything they were fairly cheap. The offices were actually a bargain and a short term lease. Many decisions were made, however, with the expectation of rapid growth. Money was thrown at problems under the assumption that sales would keep rolling in.

Building hardware is expensive. Really expensive. Especially in a hurry, and especially when it doesn't work quite right. So are lawyers.

If there are missing millions, it will be because of outright sloppy accounting.  A tremendous amount of orders were taken in a very short time with nowhere near the amount of financial oversight that should have been present. I would not be surprised if they pull a GOX and find something in a wallet that got overlooked.
