A dividend of BTC14.16 has been paid.  


Thank you for bringing that to my attention.  I placed an order for 2x 54GH/s bASIC miners.  I also ordered another BitForce 'SC' 40GH/s miner and updated the "ordered" list on the OP.

Whatever excuse you need to use is fine.  Good luck getting people to loan you shares.

I'll just leave this here:

I'd be willing to sell put options on NASTY shares at the IPO price if you were interested in taking a short position.

You'd be buying them from me, not the asset...  I would pay if the asset went bankrupt.  I understand your reasoning for trying to borrow shares, but if you want to put your money where your mouth is, I have a very established trading record and would be an honorable issuer of put options for NASTY. 

So am I correct in seeing that preorders are suspended until the "next wave" of orders is ready?

Any idea when this will be?

I won't lend you anything, but I would be willing to sell you some put options on NASTY shares if you were interested in short exposure to my asset on GLBSE. 

I'm looking into preordering an Avalon, but it looks like it would need to be ordered next week to get the preorder pricing.  With our shares currently so heavily undervalued due to the BFL & Goat/Nefario situations, I cannot sell more at this time to raise funds for this purchase without harming current shareholder value.  For that reason, I may just use my own funds and plan to recoup my costs with future share sales at much higher than current prices.  I feel like that is the best option I have for balancing expansion and maintaining shareholder confidence.  I've also registered with #Bitcoin-OTC Web of Trust and added a link in my forum signature to my OTC ratings page, in an attempt to further elevate shareholder trust in my abilities and intentions as an asset issuer on GLBSE.

The share price is definitely not reflecting a change in the company's fundamentals. Outstanding share count is down, looks like we're going to see another strong dividend this week, and I've ordered another 1.2GH/s in FPGAs that should arrive within a month. The weather is also cooling down, so I should be able to increase our bitstreams soon. All positive things. In addition, I'm looking at placing an order for a competitor's ASIC miner to diversify a bit from BFL.

You're welcome.  Thanks for pointing out the Outstanding Shares statistic is available in real time and not just through the dividend API from the previous week.  I'll have that updated soon.

The Dividends Paid statistic is now automated.

Sold to me.   

I think the answer is simple. 

1) Goat gets a short time to liquidate operations. 
2) Goat sends Nefario BTC for all the outstanding assets. 
3) Nefario distributes the BTC as a dividend to shareholders.
4) 
5) Profit.

+1

I don't think ASICs will have an effect on BTC price.  The block reward halving will outweigh the effect of coins being produced at a faster rate between difficulty jumps.

I can only speculate right now as to what even happened.  Like I said, don't get me wrong...  Goat runs a "mining company" that doesn't mine, bonds that he can't back with BTC income, & an arbitrage company that as far as I can tell doesn't actually trade...  He deserved to be delisted.  I just worry about the way it happened and how it will effect shareholders.  

I agree.  Don't get me wrong, this move is long overdue.  I'm worried about the precedent it sets though.

The last dividend information was added to the public API last week.  I'm already generating automated statistics using them.

Yes, very much so.  We will be going from our current 5,600MH/s to the ordered ASIC 320,000MH/s.

The $599 FPGA.

I placed another order for a Bitforce Single yesterday.  Hopefully we have it in about 30 days, as it looks like BFL has greatly sped up their delivery times recently.
