After playing with it for couple minutes, they have some interesting features set up for BitInstant Beta.
New Features ACH (linking bank account) [Not working yet] Debit Card Purchase [Not working yet] "Instant Debit Transfer" (less than 24 hr ACH) [Not working yet]
Something "Interesting" While signing up, it appears like they may be pulling credit history info (unconfirmed, don't panic!). I say this because they asked questions like:
1) Which of the following street addresses have you lived at before? 2) Do know any of the following individuals? (family member listed) 3) Have you ever had any of these telephone numbers before?
And so on, more to come...

Hey guys, short question: Is it okay to use a Bitstamp address for ASICMiner shares?
I would recommend against it, get a Blockchain/Electrim/Armory wallet instead.

Got my invite!! Will try to provide a comprehensive review if possible, stay tuned!!!

The bloke/wench just wants attention, ignore the scamming troll. John's track record speaks for itself.

So you are willing to support the idea of investing in AMC as long as facts don't get involved?
Are you Jim Cramer? Or just a mere columnist for the Motley Fool?
If you don't like or agree with what I'm saying, you could just, you know, ignore me. auto2nr1 - Apologies about cluttering up your thread, hopefully my first post helped a little.

you are really desperate to get some mileage out of Friedcat mentioning AMC in a laundry list aren't you?
Why don't you address something of substance. Here are a few things that guarantee AMC shareholders get ripped off:
1. 20M 'reinvestment' shares that Ken votes just like Ian Bakewell did before he ran with the money. 2. VMC owns the IP developed with AMC money and pays only a pittance to the funders 3. VMC expenses are being paid out of AMC revenue 4. Ken takes 40M shares of AMC for no contribution of capital
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think friedcat has ever mentioned AMC. Not an AMC shareholder so those issues that you brought up aren't really my concern (and should be those that hold shares). I have no allegiance to AMC.

Regardless of what you think, AMC is still considered a "competitor" of ASICMiner, 100 TH/s, & BTC-Garden. Mr. Slaughter has put time and money into his brand and come up with a plan that convinced other investors to join him. Quite a lot is riding on how quickly he can turn those 20k chips into actual hashing power. However, only time will tell if he is an effective competitor of the already established ASICMiner.

Depends on what you want from the investment. Hardware is a fixed rate, depreciating over time but you get your BTC much sooner (put back into more hardware quicker). But with difficulty, can you match and stay with the rising tide? AM shares (or AMC & 100 TH/s) means you trust the issuer to do what is right and pay out the "correct" number of BTC. The risk there is you can't control what happens to those companies but you get convenience in return.
What do you want?

Since there are almost 400,000 shares on the list it mean PT shares are included. But there are no transfers with around 20,000 shares (btct.co and bitfunder). So it must mean the pass through exchanges don't get dividends in one transfer, but multiple. Which of the transfers belong to pass throughs? Hint: On the passthrus, you can see how many each hold (BF/BTCT). Check out the G Doc listed above to see which address that holds that number of shares. Presto...

Update
The wafer of the first half (100TH/s) of next batch is to be out of fab. More than 4,000 USB devices are sold out in total. The demand of blades are surprisingly long-lasting and still high.
With respect to the mining business, we have never seen it as a drying up one in spite of persistent block halving. If Bitcoin ever rises as a successful currency in a few years, and the transaction fee has to be, say, 15BTC each block on average, to prevent attacks from organizations that are all over the world and begin show up when Bitcoin flourishes, what we could expect is 27.5BTC per block after the next block halving, and more than 15BTC forever in the further future.
The shares "missing" are those missing from the original GLBSE database when we got them. Some people had failed to report their Bitcoin address. Among them, several ones successfully redeemed their shares after we mailed them for the address info. But the rest failed to mail back.
The delay of confirmation of this week's dividends is caused by the payments of real dividends are chained after the satoshi transactions, which are now refused by most of the clients. We will either stop the satoshi payments, or unchain the payment in our modified scripts.

Appreciate the kind words but I may end up removing all the 'Thank you' posts. I would like to keep this as clutter-free as possible, to serve more as a reference thread than discussion post (see main thread). Right now, I'm going to be submitting investor questions on a monthly. Please PM me with questions you would like friedcat to address, with the subject line "ASICMiner FAQ". I will compile them and send it to him. As previously mentioned, friedcat may not answer the question if he deems that it may divulge Bitfountain's strategy/plan to competitors.
A monthly date will be provided later, to give people a deadline of question submission. For now, send me those questions and don't take offense if I remove your post in this thread to keep it as clean as possible.
EDIT: Please keep questions related to ASICMiner, I will not submit questions like:
- What is your favorite color? - Are you single? - Do you have BFL pre-orders?
Cheers

The board had a meeting yesterday. friedcat is doing well and is very busy with growing the company.
I understand some of you guys want more information, but releasing information has to fit with the strategy of the company, which means that sometimes things are progressing in a secretive manner. Of course this doesn't help with investment decisions.
I recommend that the PT operators or willing board members should compile questions from smaller investors and feed them to friedcat in a structured manner. Maybe the replies could be organized as a FAQ. He simply doesn't have time to dig through the forum and answer questions here.
I would be willing to take on this task, perhaps even do this on a monthly basis. Please PM me with questions you would like friedcat to address, with the subject line " ASICMiner FAQ". I will compile them and send it to him. As previously mentioned, friedcat may not answer the question if he deems that it may divulge Bitfountain's strategy/plan to competitors.
