I would like to found a small ethical pharmaceutical company. Sadly bitcoin would have to rise to at last 1.000.000 € for me to do so.

litecoin mining with cgminer works, bitcoin pools currently don't.

IMO, the risk should absolutely be transferred to the buyer.  They are buying the risk, as well as the reward, but people never seem to mention it.
Yes, here's how I currently imagine it would go: You buy the preorder from me,put btc into escrow, I point bfl to you adress and email, they confirm  the change, I get paid.

147  Economy / Computer hardware / [WTS] 06/12 BFL SC small single on: March 31, 2013, 08:32:34 PM
have: preorder for 1 BFL small single SC (jalap. upgrade)with BFL confirmed date of purchase 06/2012.

Offers in btc.
escrow possible.

I'm increasing the price to BTC 1.29. I'm slowly but surely to run out of stock and want to slow selling a bit.

how are the chances for a 5btc coin follow-up batch?
how high is the insurance agains loss?

Based on the above info, would you decide to spend a minute or two accepting free Timecoins and possibly consider competing for huge project bounties?
Yes i would.

I don't think you will be successful with a stock exchange with doubtful legal status so soon after GLBSE shutdown. Please surprise me with some good explanation for the absence of personal information but things don’t look trust inducing so far.
152  Other / Off-topic / Re: New SC Little Single better than SC Single ? on: October 15, 2012, 07:02:59 PM
Has BFL ever officially stated the small singles power consumption? Because I don't remember seeing official numbers like with the normal single

All their products have an advertised power consumption of 1watt per Ghash.
All the products where they have released official power consumption figures follow this rule, yes.
But as far as I remember they have never officialy stated that the little single uses 30 watts. It makes sense and I expect it to follow that rule, but I would like to see an official statement.

154  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BFL 60 on Rasberry Pi? on: October 13, 2012, 03:34:00 PM
So no standard miners that would run on Pi's? 
well there is at least one youtube video about a rhaspberry pi used for fpga mining, but as I mentioned you might have to compile the miner from sourcecode yourself
155  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: BFL 60 on Rasberry Pi? on: October 13, 2012, 11:10:34 AM
according to a bfl email I recieved some days ago the SCs will use common miners like CGMiner or
BFGMiner, but BFL have not tested if the mining software runs on ARM themselves so you won't get a compiled version from bfl as it seems

First there will be a contract.
There is not one now because we are in the feedback stage.
yes, but the feedback could be much more precise if you had some rought draft for common reference. Currently everyone only has his own assumption to go on. Doing this "advance payment" off your time would also indicate that you are serious and allready thought about this.
157  Economy / Securities / Re: New Asset idea, Cambodian rice sharecropping (4% to 6% a year) Feedback wanted! on: September 29, 2012, 07:55:56 AM
I thing goat should start writing some basic contract draft. The basic idea is interesting but it's the details that count
 
I just read up on this whole thread. It's interesting, and would be a good showcase for legitimate BTC uses.

I can imagine investing a minor sum, and would like to see the following (eventually):

* I want to see the share holder contract, and a translated contract with the farmer(s).
* Detailed information about the land and the owner who holds it on investors behalf.
* I don't think you rely on GLBSE or other exchanges, they are still too volatile.
* From what I read I think the shares would be stock style, giving shared ownership, shared risk, and shared profits?
* Who will do the rice selling and for what fees?
* Do you plan to wind this down by selling the land eventually,
* or just have individual owners sell their shares for profit? If so, on which market?
* How do you plan to handle shared decision making?
* If this reaches the size of a company, do you plan to register share holders (partners) by name and verified identity?
* Can you evaluate the land price regularly to provide a current NAV to share holders?

I share this concerns.
other points:
obligatory " why shoud I trust you, at this profits I'm still fucked if you run 5 years from now".
the contract should let shareholders vote to recieve payouts in a currency other in bitcoins, in case bitcoin fails.
shareholder own what exactely? land, rice produced?
you should offer divident reinvesting.
you should offer me some way to keep my shares in cold storage. After investing I should be able to print everything, file it, and pull it out to vote or cashout (see divident reinvesting) a decade from now.

disclaimer:
I admit I'm more interested to see if this works out and getting a reference framework for the future than investing huge summs. actual investment from my side would be in single BTC digits.

nefario and goat are both acting like children, having a mudfight on the backs of their customers. I'm disappointed in both.

Playing the investor without reading other posts: might be redundant
I’m not convinced that this will make me money. Why should I invest my money in fancy trains(on stilts?)for cargo? will the advantage gained be really worth the billions it will cost to set this up? Why will you succeed where many others have failed? Why should I believe your numbers? magnets->rare earths;how will this affect the world market/price ?
after reading other user posts:
“following issues will be eliminated: most maintenance costs.” sceptical about that claim. you will have to pay for everything since it’s private property. after some years you would be in a constant replacement cycle repairing tracks and everything else. whats the expected lifetime of tracks? 30 years?

I would like to read the actual business case when you have it since I like the idea of maglev and it’s difficult to work with just a few sentences.
most important! will I get some free company shares for my awesome input when this takes off?   Smiley
