Hi everybody,
I am writing from the Netherlands and I ordered a couple of weeks ago two usb block erupters from asicminer-shop.de
I am satisfied with my purchase, however, I am very disappointed about the shipping costs, and even more about the comunication with the seller.

I didn't mind paying .45 BTC per miner (it was just before the price drop) but I do mind having paid .21 BTC (circa 20 EUR) for the shipping, since the envelope in which I received the miners clearly shows only 5,5 EUR shipping costs.
Then I tried to contact the asicminer-shop.de people and I haven't heard anythng from them.

I thought at first it was an honest mistake, and asked asicminer-shop.de if they could refund me the difference of the shipping costs via BTC, but given the silence which followed my email, I start being afraid that inflating the shipping costs might be their common practice. What are your experiences with this seller? Have you experienced the same?

Asicminer-shop.de, if you read this, my order was #574. I'd really appreciate if you could answer my email.

Warrants served at Labcoin HQ.  Five arrests made. This thing is over and I told you so!  Sell while you still can...    

Do you mean like this Ytt?

Well, since everyone here loves their numbers, let me throw some of mine into the mix:

Labcoin's plan is to bring the following hashrate online:

6TH/s in Mid-September
44TH/s additional in Mid/Late-October (total of 50TH/s)

Source:


So, let's see where these numbers take us! I am using the following assumption: 35% Difficulty Increase per Period. This is a high estimate, as even the most recent DI was ~32% and that was the highest in the past few months.

We can calculate the value of this hashrate by inputting the current daily value of a 1MH/s miner and extrapolating it out to 1TH/s. Then, we multiply that daily mining value times the number of days in that Difficulty period. At 35% increases, each Difficulty period will only be 9.1 days.



So, as you can see here (yes, the chart does go all the way past this to 2/12/16, but I don't feel like stitching two images together this morning), with a Difficulty Increase factor or 35%, 6TH/s brought online in Mid-September (9/13/13) will yield approximately a total of BTC12445.3143, or BTC.00124453 per share. Even THIS is higher than the IPO price!

6TH/s
September 13
=.00124453/SHARE

How about the remaining 44TH/s that Labcoin is going to bring online in Mid-Late October? Nobody's perfect - lets make it November 6th!

44TH/s brought online 11/6/13 would still yield BTC45266.2753, resulting in a per-share yield of BTC.00452663!

44TH/s
November 6
=.00452663/SHARE



The best part - this doesn't even include hardware sales!

So, the expected value of JUST the 50TH/s that Labcoin plans to bring online is .0057721 per share, not including hardware sales, and NOT including the additional 50-150TH/s that their 65nm generation is going to bring!

50TH/s
6TH/s Sep 13 + 44TH/s Nov 6
=.0057721/SHARE



Everyone here can argue how they want, but if LC starts their early hashing on-time and their 44TH/s hashing even a week late, this stock is undervalued by 40% BEFORE hardware and additional future hashrate.

Cheers!

As we already stated, chip documentation isn't ready yet for public distribution.
We will start distribution to third parties when hashing power deployed will meet the goals we have set. This is our top priority right now.
We want to mention that we have received interview requests from several well know parties, CNN and Bloomberg being the most prominent  and late progress with our 65nm design lead us to believe we will deploy 200-300 TH within 2013.  

Is this a good long term investment or is it just for short term profit, suitable for flippers and day traders?

I am not skilled enough to day trade so I would need a good long term prospect if I am to sell up my ActM shares.

What is the clock all about?  Isn't that asking for a big fail??

It was the 10th that clock is wrong

TheSwede75 is now online, for the record.
Edit: and gone.

I'm not sure this will resolve as true, even if Labcoin has the hardware, mainly because they never agreed to send out sample chips to 5 forums members, etc, etc.

By now you should know delays are a big deal.

What is on order is a specific amount of hashing not a percentage of the network, which is ever expanding; being late means more than just having earnings delayed, it also means less earnings total.

All this ignoring time preference.
