Bitcoin Forum

50 ASICMiner directly owned shares available for auction. Now is your chance to own 0.0125% of the first blue chip of the Bitcoin era!  ;)

Minimum quantity: 5 (to reduce friedcat's transfer workload)
Minimum bid: 2.20 BTC per share
Minimum bid increment: 0.01 BTC per share
Payment (direct or into escrow account) due 36 hours after auction closes.
Share transfer request to friedcat will occur within 24 hours of direct payment or full funding of escrow account.

Although share transfer won't occur until after tomorrow's dividend payout, upon completion of the share transfer I will directly transfer tomorrow's dividend to the auction winner(s).

I realize my history on this forum is limited, so escrow through John K. is welcome if desired (paid for by buyer).

Auction ends at 01:00 UTC 22nd of May. During the final two minutes of bidding, every bid pushes back the end time by 2 minutes. Forum timestamps will be used to determine the winners.

Timer removed. End time: 2013-05-22+1:00:00UTC

SilentSonicBoom, can you clarify your bid? I thought you were bidding on 10 total. Trying to set up a spreadsheet to track this.

Sorry. I believe my other bids were outbid. 5 shares for now.

Will you publish the spreadsheet any time soon?

10 @ 2.40

I know some folks don't like PM bids since they aren't public, so I will only accept PM bids for users stuck in newbie jail from now until an hour before the auction ends.

WISH I HAD SOME EXTRA BTCS RIGHT NOW, IM A BIT SHORT OF THE 5 MINIMUM  :(
IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO BUY MY PREORDER OF USBMINER FROM THE GROUPBUY, I CAN BUY SOME MORE SHARES :) LOL

-> or just buy some more btc's: https://mtgox.com / https://localbitcoins.com / https://www.bitstamp.net :P ;)

update 16 @ 2.41

Also, I'd like confirmation from friedcat that you own the shares prior to sending payment (and I'd like for the payment address for each winning to be made public to serve as proof of payment.

please update the table

You should use escrow if you aren't comfortable paying direct. I don't want to bother friedcat anymore than is necessary (dude is busy). If you PM me then I will provide you with my btc address showing dividend payments and satoshis. I also don't feel comfortable publishing auction winner's btc addresses -- that then ties the forum user with their ASICMiner dividend address. While some may feel comfortable with that (and I know some auctions do that), I don't want to make the blanket assumption that all will bidders will.

Sorry xaviarlol, minimum bid is 5 shares. Do you want to bump your bid up to that qty?

vegascoins just send update his bid via PM (he is in newbie jail still):

https://i.imgur.com/GnoJ22a.png

Since we are now under 1 hour until the auction is complete, I will no longer accept PM bids (or PM bid changes).

Sorry - 5@2.41

Changing my bid to 5@2.42

5 @ 2.42

5@2.4

10 @ 2.45

hl5460: a bid of 2.43 or higher is required to be "above the red line" on the table before the 50 shares runs out. I'll post a new table in a few mins.

Actually a bid of 2.42 will also barely put you above the red line right this instant.

AUCTION CLOSED -- it closed after TheJuice's last bid (Pzi4nk bid missed the time window by a few seconds). Updated table coming in a minute.

I thought it extended by 2 minutes after each bid.

An honest auctioneer. +1

It does. The bid after mine was 2 minutes 5 seconds later.

Well played, sir.

I agree +1

Ahh, indeed it was.

It was, and Pzi4nk missed it by a few seconds.

I should try typing with my fingers instead of my toes but I wanted to make it a fair fight.

Great auction folks. It is tough keeping that table updated in realtime.

So the final winning bids I have are:

https://i.imgur.com/R1tXQIo.png

Note SilentSonicBoom gets 7 of his 10 requested shares.

Please double-check your bid quantity and price.

Winners can settle-up either publicly on the forum or via PMs (final share transfer request to friedcat will be over PMs).

If you'd like John K to escrow then let me know and we will PM him for the escrow account addresses. If you would like proof of ownership for a direct transaction, then PM me and I'll provide relevant evidence.

I can do public

Sorry for that. my bad. Rushing in to place a bid.

It's my 3rd auction, so whatever the usual procedure is I'm cool

Public & escrow. Thanks.

I'll do public and escrow as well.

Public and escrow also thanks

Public and direct is fine with me.

John K,

Can you setup escrow for the top 3 transactions in the table below?

https://i.imgur.com/l0SXnLc.png

Public direct is fine.

https://i.imgur.com/5jHSVZY.png

houseofchill: I've PM'd friedcat (and CC'd you) to make the share transfer.
TheJuice: your direct payment address is: 1NUwSvUJxAuEJ8rRJQfHf2JWuLuZuzHzCU
SilentSonicBoom: your direct payment address is: 1FhTEpTGSbk3zs8S698DWtgTnc4mZEHhTL

Trying to get money off my btct account to send. The site has had issues this morning. Will send payment about 14 hours from now when I get back home. Thanks for the shares. I will send account details at that time with confirmation of payment.

No problem. TheJuice is paying later this afternoon as well, so presuming those both come in today I'm going to batch up those 2 requests for friedcat into a single PM request.

houseofchill's transaction is complete. friedcat confirmed the share transfer and based on my dividend satoshi count, it looks like he will receive his dividend directly from AM. I will pay all the other dividends myself after the share transfers are done.

I'll also PM John K again about getting the escrow setup if we haven't heard from him by tonight.

PS: Escrow contracts sent via PM, thanks.

First few confirms are in. Looks like dividend already went out.

Updated status:

https://i.imgur.com/wRFWd1Y.png

houseofchill transaction is complete and friedcat has confirmed.

SilentSonicBoom is to pay directly tonight, I believe.

Everyone else has funded escrow and I've put in all of the transfer requests.

I owe everyone dividends of 0.02084164 per share except houseofchill. Note I haven't received the official dividends yet myself because of an unconfirmed transaction dependency issues that several shareholders are seeing (there are other threads on btc talking about it). It'll resolve eventually, but I'll go ahead and pay out the dividends tonight or tomorrow regardless so we can close out the auction.

SSB: How about just transferring over 17.2840852 (to 1FhTEpTGSbk3zs8S698DWtgTnc4mZEHhTL), which is the bid amount minus the dividend * 7? That'll save me an extra transaction and be the same net.

Typo, meant: 17.28410852. Doesn't matter though, difference is less than a penny I think.

SSB: also let me know what btc address you want to use for receiving the AM weekly dividends.

Still at work. Will send PM with payment and details as promised. Will send new amount above to save a step. Thanks.

PM sent to dmcdad and burnside. Payment sent in amount of 17.28410852 requested 2013-05-22 23:41:20 CST. Awaiting manual processing of payment from BTCT.CO . 7 shares to be transferred by friedcat to my BTCT.CO account. Thanks again for the auction.

I've send friedcat notification of all share transfers and have now paid everyone their 0.02084164 per share dividends.

Please post on this thread after friedcat confirms share transfer. Thanks everyone!

Confirmed I got the shares and diviends.  Thank you dmc.

Dmcdad, do you still have any shares for sale or auction? I would like to purchase 2 or 3 for the prices you got at the auction. Let me know if any are available. Thanks!

Confirmed I received dividend from dmcdad. However, still waiting on fc for confirmation of share transfer (does he usually respond, or do we find out next wednesday when dividends go out?)

He will reply-all to the PM share request I sent him, so you'll get confirmation via PM. I believe he normally gets to these within a day or two of the request, but sometimes it can take longer.

https://i.imgur.com/rIZhfOn.png

Friedcat has confirmed via PMs to everyone the share transfers. Looks like we are done with the auction.

I would appreciate confirmation posts on this thread, and if you have a minute please leave trust feedback on my account (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=110164).

Thanks again everyone for the smooth transactions!

confirmed received shares and div.
