Title: How are former GLBSE shares managed, ASICminer shares specifically?
Post by: Grey on February 15, 2013, 12:39:08 AM
It looks to me like ASICminer is going to be operational very soon, and it's looking like a worthwhile investment to pick up some shares in an auction. I read through the first few pages of the ASICminer thread, but they kept mentioning how it was managed through GLBSE, which 1.) I have no experience with, 2.) no longer exists.

So if GLBSE closed down, how are the shares kept track of, traded, etc? Is it just an informal thing, where if I were to buy some shares at auction, I'd just send an email to Bitfountain or whomever and they'd list me as a shareholder/delist the previous owner?  How are the dividends managed?

I'm sure this has been answered elsewhere, but I need more posts to get out of noobjail and I'm too lazy to dig through the 88 pages in the asicminer thread

If they use one of the existing exchanges to transfer the shares too its a simple matter to import the list fwiw.

A quick look says that MPEx and ICBIT are two other big trading platforms. Are there any other big ones I could benefit from knowing about?
