I'm interested to see if these will pay off or not.  76 BTC seems like so much to me.  Best of luck to you investors.

i think these guys are betting on BTC in the future is worth more than BTC right now...

In which case the 75 BTC would be worth more as well...

Yes, but the value of 75BTC @ 19th April (when i exchanged cash for BTC) != value of 75BTC @ 1st September.

That logic is flawed. The value of your 75 BTC compared to the value you will get out of mining using 10GH/s (minus energy cost) is what you need to compare.

I'm, pretty sure that auction was clear manipulation to rise Asicminer share price, no sane man would pay 76 btc for 10GH device.

And they run operation spectacularly, shares more than doubled in a day or two.

The amount of manipulation and corruption in bitcoin community these days is staggering.

I would pay if I had. Bid 71.5.

If you check the forum time you will notice that share price increased after auction announcement but before "insane" bids. In fact share price dropped at the end to 1.1 or even 0.9 (guess why)

Don't think I'm insane. Bought shares for 0.8 in the morning and sold for 1.3 the next day. Got "free" 30btc to buy that thing.

Easy money lead to easy spending. People really wanted those devices, don't think it is wise to insult them in this thread.

I'm afraid some of you just don't get it.

These blades will simply NEVER make 75 BTC.

They had increased but to some 0.8-0.9, I was interested in buying but refused even if I thought they might rise, they're just not worth that amount and I didn't want to be part of that bullshit. They went to 1.6 in auction time.

Shares that give 0.006 btc weekly are just worth more than 0.4-0.5, except with manipulation and hype asicminer share holders using to rise their price. We're 2 months from huge number of asics on the market, AM's network hashrate percentage won't be remotely close to where it is now and yet people were paying 300 weeks dividends worth amount for one share, lol. What a bloody moron someone has to be to bite that.

remember there are people on this planet that can't spend all their money if they tried

they don't need to make any btc back.. they already won by winning the auction.  That was their main goal

In this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=178051.0
the estimate is that ROI for these devices which sold at 75btc is roughly 2.5 months.

you might want to check that again Wink

You can produce less than 0.6BTC daily with that hash power at today's difficulty. So even if difficulty would stay same you'd need more than 4 months to meet ROI Wink

"you might want to check that again"

Nope.  Smiley

*I* didn't make any estimate / statement.
Merely pointed to where 'some other dude' had done so.

As I thought some in this thread might find that interesting.

If you disagree, I suggest you go 'over there' and join in that discussion. I'm sure your reasonable disagreements will be welcomed and the discussion / estimates might be improved by a rational discourse about different assumptions.

Seems you are pretty confident in what you are saying. Why don't you sell an options to buy shares.  or futures or whatever. If this bubble gonna burst in 2 months you will be rich.

Every SECOND is precious with your new toy. Hope he shipped it via worm hole teleportation express. IMHO this auction was waaay overpriced. And to think people bitched that Batch 3 Avalon units were expensive. You can be sure that none of them bough these "Erupters".

Dude - at this point, it is pretty clear that the buyers of these boards:

1. Have too much money
2. Did not buy to make profit, not even break even
3. Bought it for historic value (  Shocked )

I am inclining towards thinking some of the buyers will directly put these on the showcase instead of mining with them at all.  Grin

I find it rather amusing that asicminer customers will have their erupter blades sooner than Avalon batch #2 customers will have their Avalons, which have been ordered in february  Grin

Yes, the asicminer blades certainly have some amusement value - even the auction was very amusing.  Grin

To Buy AM shares? I wouldn't buy them if they would go to 10BTC each in a week. It's a matter of principles. It's a classic pump priced share and I don't want to sell it to some sucker later just for him to lose most of his money in few weeks when AM network power percentage drops heavily.
