BFL supplying you that one?

Viper (Scrypt) Miner - Alpha Technology email came in with a JAR file as well.

Someone pushing it hard.

We know you know the score given your posts. Others do not seem forthright.

Let us hope the FTC starts dispensing refunds.

By all means let us not stop you from "praising" BFL and their products you are certainly making it very clear that these things are unsupported and fraught with disaster unless you have the requisite skills or a direct line like Lightfoot / Mr. Teal to support from Bruce and others in BFL. Mining is pretty much dead anyhow small scale so watching a few Monarchs mine after adding on hundreds of dollars in extras and hours and hours of support from the BFL defacto service team is simply an education in the lengths BFL is willing to go to support a narrative that they are some how here to help the community with their product. All one has to do is compare BFL with companies that actually ship on time and provide customer support in real time.

What have you spent in time and money so far to get one miner working to the specifications that BFL promised originally in 2013? We obviously can see that the size of the unit and configuration is not data center ready by any means compared to plug play units from the competition that do not require intensive care to run or water cooling.

Unlike other units say from Spondoolies Tech that seem stable as bedrock and have unbelievable support and far cheaper.

Obviously the people buying these Monarchs are doing it either as 'paid' publicity for BFL as they have done so in the past or strictly for the novelty or challenge to get them working optimally. Seems like a waste of money and effort to publicize BFL at this stage given the FTC will basically denude them of every stolen bitcoin. And whatever is undiscovered will certainly be visible to the FBI or IRS if it does surface eventually. What is also interesting is the steadfast support of 3 major players, Josh Zerlan, SLok and Bruce Peterson in the scam who have proven they astro turf the BFL record whenever and wherever possible. This thread is just one more iteration of that campaign especially when those 3 make an appearance.

Logic is flawed?

We will see who is BUYING but I dare say it won't be a public consumer at home.

Consolidation will continue and those people buying are not coming here to debate the value of one producer over another. This forum is becoming less relevant every day. What you will see from this point forward are the death throws of some companies and the continued complaint threads about the latest scam or legal play against other companies. Whatever is cutting edge is being developed for commercial customers not the small home user.

You are naive to think the same market continues today as it did in 2009 or 2010 or 2011 and so on.

FTFY.

What could be possible is a million usb miners spread far and wide to maintain the vision of the public miner.

It doesn't but you are not going to get 100s of people coming here to buy things that don't ROI. Games over for the home user and by default this forum will fade as fewer people engage in this hobby.

And that makes any guide at this point useless. This might be the end of this portion of the forum considering it was the user coming here to discuss hardware that made it relevant. As time goes on there will be no more interest or users.

You have a direct line to them just ask Bruce to call Nasser they talk regularly.   You were in contact with Bruce and SLok before the shutdown it would have been very easy for you to ask for that given you are a regular on the BFL forums and here making a point to draw consumer attention to BFL miners. You can't deny the special relationship you have with BFL.

See he still isn't answering the question. Guess he doesn't want to incriminate himself?

I am guessing the FTC will be asking you about the unit sold to Lightfoot and the units shipped to SLok.

Want to answer truthfully? Or just avoid the question like usual?

What was the purpose of this thread?

To help you sell BFL and Monarchs. No.

Go start your own support thread Bruce.

No we want answers Bruce.

What have no interest in getting assets back for customers?

Did you ship SLok his units Bruce?

And Bruce did you help get Lightfoot his Monarch?

Still not answered this either.

So that would be another instance of a lie told to customers. There were no FCC marks on any of their miners. There were no tests even conducted on their miners by the FCC. This would go to false advertising as well.

Is there evidence of statements that they were seeking FCC, CE and other marks?

Since there is no evidence they ever received any certification whatsoever on any of the products they sold.

FTC would possibly be interested in that as it goes to their credibility.
