replied to that email on the 8th saying i was unable to login to my previously made account (this could be my fault. thought i knew what i would have used as the password but maybe not)
So you're accusing me of being a scammer because you forgot your password for nonnakip's site? Awesome. Please PM nonnakip to work out how you can verify your account and reset your password. EDIT: Your seats were claimed, you just never set an address in the settings to receive donations. You were even contacted and asked to set a donation address when this was discovered. If you hadn't lost your password, or bothered to set a donation address, there would be no issue.

So basically the starter of nasty mining is a scammer
Not true. You're going to have to apologize for this accusation if you want my help to see any kind of resolution from this.

Thanks to the person that donated 14.8 BTC to NastyFans.
You're welcome. Consider it a thank you to all those who continue to support NASTY MINING.

cool ! Is Nastyfans going now to be selling the seats on the btc stock exchanges like btct.co ?
I know of no plans to start a NastyFans pass-thru on any exchange at the moment. This fund seems to be one possible way to get NastyFans exposure via btct.co: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134389.0OgNasty, how are things going with the refund-request from BTCFPGA? Have you heard anything back? And do you have any plans on what to do with those BTC?
I was told I'd receive a refund within 24 hours when I discussed the situation with Dave from BTCFPGA. That has come and gone and all attempts to contact Tom have been met with silence. If we do retrieve the funds, they'd be put towards new BFL ASIC orders.

1. Please, get a free SSL certificate from StartSSL.com for nastyfans.org. This self-signed business is rather unprofessional.
No. I can not agree to StartSSL terms. Maybe some fans will donate BTC for a SSL certificate. PM me if yes. I've listed 19 seats for sale at the original adjusted IPO price of 0.27BTC. Funds from the sale of these seats will be donated to nonnakip towards the purchase of an SSL Certificate for his site.

4. Email notification of a new poll would also be appreciated.
I am pretty sure it has been stated before that NastyFans will not be emailing anything. It doesn't have to be email, anything else would also be fine. I'm just not very happy with nonnakip trying to force all of us to log on to his site every few days to check if something may have happened (or not). We are already moving away from that with the termination after x days being discussed (and hopefully removed). I agree, it is not ideal. I would personally prefer a twitter stream. I can start updating the @NastyMining twitter stream when NastyFans polls are announced. That shouldn't be a problem.

If enough people were to either abstain, or vote "no" on the CURRENT lottery poll, will it really result in the new idea being voted on?
The poll has already received >75% of the vote, so it looks like we will be going ahead with the seat lottery. I voted for the lotto because I wanted to see longstanding seat holders benefit from it, and going forward with this plan seemed the only way to make that happen before NastyFans opens to the general public.

Yes. This is both relevant and disturbing. I've requested a refund on our bASIC orders as per the results of our poll. Hopefully Tom will come through. For those that don't know the situation... Tom ( cablepair) seems to have disappeared and is being very slow processing refunds. I've sent him an email at: thomas@thomasvanriper.com pleading with him to return our funds. It seems he has refunded a few people, so there is still hope. It probably wouldn't hurt to shoot him a message asking to refund our order #'s 736 & 816 if you've had any prior relationship with him.

I'm in favor of canceling the ASIC orders but would prefer to maintain diversity with other ASIC developers rather than more orders with BFL.
Here's the problem with that. The other manufacturers are much smaller than BFL. The Avalon team for example isn't even accepting new orders at this time. Deepbit's ASIC doesn't seem like the greatest deal, and as far as I know ASICMINER isn't selling individual units to be shipped anytime soon. BFL has stated that they've ordered excess supply of ASIC chips and thus is probably our best chance at getting an order filled quickly if placed now. I definitely understand the diversity argument, but it seems like at this time BFL is our best bet.

It looks like besides falling months behind the other manufacturers, BTCFPGA is also selling itself to an "asian company" that has not yet been named. This makes me nervous. What are your thoughts on cancelling our bASIC orders and going all in on Butterfly Labs? I am selling my share in BTCFPGA and it is now going to be owned by a asian company that is 100% sure of a March Delivery. if you are not interested in doing business with this company please feel free to filll out a refund request and we will refund your money is full. There is plenty enough money to make all of these refunds and I have been a pillar of this community for years, so please no panic. Anyone that wants a refund - they will receive one today. Please I ask you to please accept my apologize - if you can wait until March you will receive a superior ASIC mining device, if you lost your trust in me and my company than I dont blame you at all. But please understand I tried the best at the best of my ability and I can't take any of this anymore. I am not the right man for this job. Your new ASIAN benefactors will be online soon to greet you all and see where were are at and hopefully they can calm some of your nerves. https://www.btcfpga.com/forum/index.php?topic=954.msg2804#msg2804

I was wondering why the donations have been distributed between fewer seats? If anything, the number should be larger since people can still claim their seats?
Technically people could obstain from donations; however that seems unlikely. I purchased some additional shares when the asking price dropped. Since I am not accepting donations on my shares, that caused the distribution to be split among less seats.

I havent been following... when are the ASICS supposed to get here?
I received email confirmation that our first bASIC order was a batch 1 order and should ship by mid-January. The timing for when the 2nd order or the BFL ASICs will arrive is unknown at this time.

I've gotten a few PMs asking about why the hashrate varies so much. As stated earlier, it is due to the way the pools calculate it. I figured this picture might put some of you at ease. We are indeed operating at nearly 7.3GH/s constantly with almost 0% rejects. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftalkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F01%2F11%2F3m5Xz.gif&t=663&c=bDS2B2jqdQFxBw)

UPDATE:OP updated with some fanclub statistics courtesy of nonnakip. The currently operating statistic is taken as a combined reading from several of our pools. Since each pool calculates this differently, it varies quite a bit.

Why are all those tiny micro coins in the nasty fans wallet?
I have no idea who is sending those micro coins, but I won't look a gift horse in the mouth.

I was wondering about the ASICs; I believe that in the GLBSE era there was a plan to have a certain amount of Mh/s correspond with 1 share. Now that there's been another FPGA purchase which is also another ASIC-trade-in, and now that the ASIC specs have been seriously adjusted, what does this add up to? It may be a bit early but it does determine the value of the NastyMining Operation ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) See the below quote. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Looking over the amount of BTC we've been able to mine since GLBSE went down, we have enough to order another BitForce Single SC for Nasty Mining. This brings us to a total of 744GH/s or 29.76MH/s per seat in ASICs on order. With there being no way to send donations to Nasty Fans currently, I feel this is a good use of BTC.

How close are we to being able to distribute donations on nonnakip's site?
nonnakip has already completed the first donation distribution.

Nefario has provided me with a complete list. This whole GLBSE mess is behind us.
