Tried to get out but couldn't. I bought in at .007 after weeks of holding out.
They're still actually worth way more than 0.007 so I wouldn't worry about it. Just because some people have decided now would be a good time to take a loss, doesn't mean you have to follow suit. I'm transferring some funds now to purchase some shares cheap. Hopefully that will even things out in a week or two.

BitFunder seems to get the worst of everything... it never got up to .009, and now it is crashing faster to a lower price than BTC-TC.

The charts on BitFunder and BTC-TC suck balls. They only update after refreshing the page.

So, when I get this board I will just plug power to it from my PSU, link it to my comp with a USB, and configure CGMiner, blow some air on it, and this thing will do the rest, right? CGminer will detect this board and know what to do with it just like it does my GPUs? Will there be any instructions with it?
Shouldn't they already have these chips? They were supposed to get them mid-late July. It is Late July.

So, are ActiveMining shares going to pay dividends or no?

Also, you don't need a smartphone for 2FA. An old iPod Touch running IOS 5 or later for $30 can handle running the Google Authenticator app, for example. Just take a look on eBay.
These smart devices are good ideas I guess. Also good for trading coins in person. I am looking into getting something inexpensive. It would be nice to have something "open" that can run linux and inexpensive (older model) - any suggestions. this is off-topic I guess. PM me if suggestions.

If you haven't got a smart phone, you can use a program for your PC. A list of programs can be found here. I used MOS Authenticator on Windows 7 and had no problems. If anyone has an investment worth more than $1000 I urge them to purchase a cheap used smartphone (costs like $50 on ebay) and wipe it before installing authenticator. Using a PC-based program is barely better than going without 2FA because if your password is stolen using a keylogger or trojan then your 2FA is also at risk. The whole point of 2FA is to have another device because then if your computer is compromised it's highly unlikely they also got your phone. doesn't the code refresh every 60 seconds? Yea it does. It shocks me someone can be interested in BTC and have BTC denominated assets and not own a smartphone. I don't have use for one at the moment. They are too expensive and I don't talk to people on the phone. I think they are useless pieces of junk that most people wouldn't have if we didn't have a fake debt-based economy. 90% of the people who have them have no reason to own them and cannot use the processing power for anything productive. Anyway... I guess one could always put it on another computer, right? oh man .... BITFUNDER ACTM and BTCT ACTM difference of 30%. . . .
It would be nice if one could get shares from BitFunder to BTCT.

What takes WeExchange so freaking long to process? Ridiculous, its been almost two hours.
Get the six confirmations yet? Wish they'd scale that back to around three like btct, seems a bit like overkill. Finally. Now I have no idea how to activate 2-factor security. It wants a code but I have no code. If you have a smart phone, get google authenticator and scan the QR code (or input the text code given). This will give you a six digit code to enter when logging in. I don't think it is required though on Bitfunder. OK, thanks for everyone's replies. I do not have a smartphone, so I will use PC. It is required for BitFunder to transfer shares.

Is there any advantage to purchasing AMC vs ActiveMining shares? I know they need to be tendered but are the ActiveMining shares going to pay dividends?

What is the temperature of the K16 without the fan/heatsink? I'd like to compare it to the predictions from my model. My heatsink/fin model seems fairly accurate.

I really wish we could get a clear picture of the size of board with heat sink attached and a template for the mounting holes in the board...Maybe I missed it?...but need to know depth with sinks on....if anyone knows yet?
Hey MMNC. I am working off of Steamboat's board info for dimensions of the heatsinks and such: http://liquidsyndesigns.com/shop/klondike.htmlWith heatsink, fan, and standoffs Steamboat's k16s are approximately 4"x4"x4" (10x10x10cm) If we take off the fan, and subtract the length of the bottom standoffs, it looks like it's going to be about 2"-2.5" thick (including the PCIe connector). It's approximate of course, but I think relatively close. On BKK's thread they talk about using heatsinks ranging from .75" to 2" thick. Standoffs are cheap from Grainger, so I bought 200 2" hex 4-40s. If you go with the heat sink labeled #4 on the BKK thread, you are getting good passive heating and much better temperature with fan cooling- around 45 C. I modeled that heat sink and posted it in another thread. I think, without a fan it was keeping temps around 80C. I did a model with a fan blowing over it but never posted the results. I also modeled the Steamboat design, but said I wouldn't release any specs. Are they selling that design as the one in that link? With a fan, the steamboat design did pretty well, but its passive cooling isn't excellent due to the small spacing of the fins. In regards to ETA, are we still looking at August 15 to have our orders? Here is a link to the heat sink design I mentioned above (not the Steamboat design): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=208381.msg2631164#msg2631164Wow,,,,what a difference 20 mm makes! Thx Extending the fins by about 20 mm has reduced the temperature to 78C, approximately a 50% reduction in temperature. The key to good passive heat transfer is surface area and large enough fin spacing. Use that heatsink I modeled as your standard. Passive cooling is helpful if one of your fans fails. I guess you could have an auto shutoff at a certain temperature, but...

Landed in San Jose last night. Everything looks good for the meeting on Monday.
If anyone knows anything fun to do around here let me know, I'm here for the week!
You can't find fun? You are in San Jose, Fun should be smacking you in the face.

Still getting new blocks mined on my i7-970 Gulftown at 3.2GHz (2 today, 2 yesterday). Maturing seem to take at least 48 hours, so I'm guessing a lot of machines have dropped out of the network.
What settings are you using and how many primes per second are you getting? I'm mining on my 3930k and get anything from 4k to 5700 primes per sec and have only gotten one block in three days of mining. You are lucky. I have been mining for at least a week at 4000 PPS and have yet to get a single block.

Think about giving this up. Haven't hit a single block in 6 days at 4000 PPS. And now HP6 constantly crashes.
