[luffy]

now that we are ASICMINER chareholders how we can manage our shares?
i mean is there an official list with addresses and shares by friedcat ?

The shares will be directly registered with friedcat. That's what the BTC address is for: it tracks the ownership and can be used as proof of ownership and to receive payments. There is no official list.

The shares will be directly managed by bitfountain until they have devised a scheme to put the equity on a trading platform, at which time the shares may be more manageable.

In any event, I recommend using ASICMINER as a permanent investment in your portfolio, in which case you do not really need to manage anything. Just keep your BTC address safe and enjoy the dividends and the growth of the company. Should you be forced to liquidate your asset, you can always find another buyer through the various channels, do an escrowed payment and inform friedcat of the change, similar to how it is done here. However, please let me emphasize here that you should not flood friedcat with change requests. Otherwise he may be forced to put regulations in place to prevent high frequency trading. If you're interesting in speculative trading of ASICMINER right now, I recommend looking at some of the pass thru options - but be aware of the increased counter-party risk!

interested in a block of 500, let me know if that opens up.

thanks

Why are you buying @ 0.5 BTC while you just sold for less? 

I accidentally sold more than I wanted to but still had to honor my commitments.

[romantic1]

The list of remaining bids will be published later.

Please, again, check whether the BTC address is correct.

Also I encourage everyone to send me an email address I can report to friedcat, I keep collecting them and will send them to him in a structured format.

Also, since I get asked this question often: Yes - you will get the dividend forwarded if the bid is still being processed and hasn't been updated with friedcat record yet.

[LtPaxIV]

finally able to post here yeee

1zmBSVN7NMysyJbStUC9MDisNegw6SQ7J

thx

[qukkM]

how many shares are remaining?

[Jutarul]

The first update has been sent to friedcat. Below is a blanked out version of the report. The full report also included the forum name, optionally an email address and the transaction ID which was associated with the transfer. The report was signed with the key 1KbAD8KU1u6uw6nHSJEYpdZfgQbNbTAkH2

The auction led to a larger fragmentation than I anticipated. Many were interested in sub $1k investments. I tried to make it as easy as possible for friedcat to incorporate the changes. I recommend that shareholders observe the next planned dividend payment (no date given yet) and check it thoroughly.

If you really must validate the transfer with friedcat before the next dividend payment, please wait until he had a chance to go through the changes (e.g. 2 days). Here's a template of a validation request, to make it easier for friedcat to respond to particular queries:
----
Dear friedcat,

I am the owner of BTC address XXX.
Please confirm that XXX shares are associated with my account.

Thank you,
XXX

I will send an aggregate reminder to all users which have a pending status. Technically there are some shares left right now, but for the sake of clarity I am not going to offer them. I want to auction to close as soon as possible.

[Jutarul]

quick update:

payments for the bids are slowly coming in. It looks like bids for 85 shares in total are not going to be filled. However, I have bids as a reserve exceeding that. I will wait a few hours before I cancel the bids associated with the 85 shares. After that I'll post another summary update and notify all current bidders.

[lduck]

in case you will not have enough bids for that 85 shares, I would like to buy 20 of them. Or more If I will be able to get more BTC.

Sent you a PM about when I can transfer the 12.5 BTC for 25 shares.

Please confirm we still have a deal before I send the coins.

Thanks for all the hard work Jutarul.

Do you think we'll get in this next round of dividends with the shares we purchased from you?

Sent 12.5 BTC from
1CCSaG4o5PYMeqvH6D74Fksf9UfLmFVo59
to
1KbAD8KU1u6uw6nHSJEYpdZfgQbNbTAkH2
for 25 shares of ASICMiner after confirming with Jutarul via PM that those shares were still available to me for that price.  I assume there will be one big confirmation once all the shares have been transferred to the buyers?
Thank you,

[luffy]

so, how long you think it will take to get even (i mean to get the share value of 0.5BTC) from dividents? 

[tolan77]

Are there still shares available to bid on?

[lophie]

so, how long you think it will take to get even (i mean to get the share value of 0.5BTC) from dividents? 

10-15 months. My personal estimation

6 month to 2 years is my guess. depends on if bfl ships or not.
