All the above explanations are bullshit...
"Sellers" exist for one primary reason only: it takes an insane amount of capital to design and produce custum BTC mining ASIC chips + create the hardware and software necessary to hash with these specialized ASIC chips. Early to mid last year there were no VCs with balls big enuff to invest in ASIC mining therefore we have "sellers" like Avalon and BFL who really just intiatiated pre-ordering as a means to raise the necessary capital...
Even ASICMINER/Bitfountian had to IPO shares in theyre company to raise captital and the only reasons they even decided to sell some of there first gen Blades is because they have a responsibility to shareholders/must pay dividends + raise additional capital for research and development of the next generatin ASIC hardware they plan to implement...
being a bit racist here AM is chinese company who is actually doing things correctly BFL is an american company who can't do things correctly what it happening with the world?!

The 3rd auction has ended The 50 available blades were sold in less than 2 hours 130 blades 'pending' (It depends on Friedcat if the blades will be sold, and/or if the price will BTC49.99 then)
Looks to me like we oughta raise the price to 60 BTC Or raise the quantity to more units... its not easy to find out the best performing price... better to raise the price and NOT the quantity!! do you not know economics 101? so far AM is the only one hence has monopoly power .. so yes he should sell it at a price that market will bear not give it away for cheap

This is interesting, keeping in mind that the value of.the shares depend on the value of btcat given time

MT gox charges a 1 % fee. Ripple is not going to be a successful exchange while XRP remains as expensive as it is now or unless it takes less ripples to perform an exchange then it does now. Maybe I am wrong but it looks like it is much more expensive when you factor all fees to exchange on Ripple as it is on the popular bitcoin exchanges.
Huh? Ripple transaction fees are negligible. if fees are negligible then how would the gateways make any money?

I was waiting for something like this. I always wondered why I never got any real answers to; "How many people control Ripple?". Bitcoin is decentralized and only decentralized markets should handle it. This form of "decentralized" thinking will keep bitcoin being "bitcoin".
What do you mean "never get any real answers"? The obvious answer is that right now Ripple is controlled by OpenCoin and its affiliates. The protocol is distributed though and the software holds great promise if it is open sourced, as OpenCoin has announced it will be, and as appears to be greatly in their interest. If they are successful, it will be great for the ideals the Bitcoin community has been pursuing. Being skeptical is one thing, but many here appear to be out to stop it from being successful. That suggests they aren't doing it out of idealism, but out of selfishness, perhaps because they worry their stash of BTC will not make them rich after all. Actually, I think Ripple will be great for them because it will provide them with an excellent, and nearly impossible to suppress, exchange mechanism between BTC and fiat currencies. with all other issues of Ripple aside. why are they holding 20% of all the XRP? that alone makes me weary of using them

friedcat, as the auctions on asics are ridiculous (BFL orders that may never ship going for $20,000+). you should be selling these for a min of 100btc!
