Who wants to bet that (somehow) we will find a relationship between the two companies, like our money used to tapeout their asic?
Also, PG is gonna like this face:

OMG Long Dong rides again.
We need to make sure that whatever threads are on this company are aware of the HF debacle. It's really even our responsibility to do so, to make sure nobody else gets sucked into the same trap.
Did anybody ever go down and pull Abram's criminal record at the courthouse in San Jose? I posted the case numbers in this thread. Come on, one of you in the Bay Area, it's possible that it is nothing significant... but on the other hand it could very interesting.
This reinforces my suspicion that there was a pronster investment behind Hashfast (represented at the company by Kottmeier and Skrodenis), and those people may have our money, and may have subsequently put it in this company.
EDIT:
Just as an addition, Bliss is claiming on its website that their ASIC will mine Vertcoin, a scrypt-n altcoin that is designed to be ASIC-resistant. The website also uses the Vertcoin logo. Well, apparently, the Vertcoin devs have made clear that they will fork VTC if the product from Abram's company hits the streets, so if Bliss ever actually makes any units, they will likely be DOA for anybody wanting to mine Vertcoin with them. Bliss knows this, as its lead has weighed in on Reddit threads. The attitude of some of the Vertcoin guys is that Bliss is engaged in what's tantamount to fraud, by suggesting those machines will mine VTC when they know VTC will fork to avoid them.
