Wouldnt it be interesting if bfl were mining with unshipped equipment to fund refunds, and now with the receivership, no more mining, and btc hashrate stabilizes, making the difficulty not rise so dramatically?

Pure, outrageous speculation, but fun thought none the less.

Fun thought, but I suspect BFL is a small player in the chip building business.....

This, plus I dont think bfl produced the devices to use in a surreptitious mining scheme.

They screwed the pooch, it seems. If they had sold in batches, like everyone else did/does, they wouldve been, imo, a more successful company. I suspect they got overwhelmed by the volume, and then noticed the big piles of cash, and said, "screw it. We cant deliver, so we may as well turn up the bass until if and when we get shut down."

I still want my cup warmer, usb powered jally. That wouldve been a cool little toy.
