Even if they agreed with you, where was HF supposed to get the money to pay out 10x their orders, after spending millions to build an amazing chip and some less than amazing boards? It was a start-up, not IBM.
In the free and volatile market of bitcoin you don't start promising full BTC refunds just to get surprised by a sudden increase in exchange rate. I think that HF should've taken everything into account before lying to get more money from customers. They should've taken into consideration both increase and decrease in value especially when with just 5-6 month before we saw an new ATH from ~33$ to $260.
Promising full BTC refunds was a straight lie from the start just to get more pre-order money and you and cypherdoc supported it!The offer for refunds was made at the end of a long period of ~$100 price stability. The spike to $1000+ was unexpected and unfortunately timed for those of us who had just used BTC to purchase ASIC pre-orders. Sorry you didn't get the 'windfalls are not legally actionable claims' memo months ago, like the rest of us (who wish they were not).
Not sure if it's pure retardness or simply lies. You define as a long period in a free and volatile market a few months? The spike was unexpected despite hitting an ATH with just a few months before? ORLY? Please say more.
