You claimed you had your ASIC device. You claimed you had a shipping label and tracking number for the device
Both of which were true.
Of course both are true, but tell us how close were you to the actual miner at the time of the post. Have you actually touched it or it was at BFL warehouse at the time of the post?
BFL stood to gain 1000 BTC (now worth roughly $600,000) if they could claim the device had shipped by April 1st.
I don't know anything about that.
But to use present-day valuation for something that occurred in the past is ridiculous.
You didn't know anything about the bet, but you posted right before the deadline? Please allow me to NOT believe that. And 1000BTC is 1000BTC no matter the exchange rate. It's somethin BFL gained just because of your post, not because of their direct actions.
