Dang, my entire holding of MINING just sold at 0.008-0.009... why would someone buy it up so high?
Im pretty sure its that guy who had the bid wall of some 35,000 shares at .00385

Still doesn't make sense... he won't be able to sell most of the shares for anywhere close to what he bought em for, and they are never gonna return anything close to 0.01 in dividends. Oh well, after prices settle back down this little spike will have almost tripled my holdings...

Transfer bot had its first failure on a transfer overnight - someone sent in 46 PURCHASE and it only sent back 46 SELLING (no MINING).

That will happen occasionally - if BTC-TC gos down, my net connection drops or there's a lock error during the transfer.  If it happens to you drop me a PM - it's easy for me to verify and correct.  I'll always notice things like this anyway (I noticed this one quickly as number of MINING/SELLING outstanding didn't match) but in some cases won't pick up on errors until I produce my next report (when total outstanding units will no longer be what it should be allowing for sales/redemptions - telling me there's an error or missed transfer somewhere).

If you're the person who sent the 46 PURCHASE and only got SELLING sent back you now have your MINING as well.

EDIT:  Actually the error was yesterday evening before I went out (I didn't check after I got back from the pub other than to make sure bot was still running):

Update started at 23/08/2013 18:14:19
TX-IN: 46 x DMS.PURCHASE <- Redacted
ERROR: Transfer error. Could not get asset lock.
ERROR: Unknown error with request. Message: The operation has timed out

The transfer of MINING failed because it couldn't get a lock on the asset, the transfer of SELLING worked but timed out responding so bot thought that hadn't worked either (which is why the bot doesn't retry on fails - as sometimes a transaction reported as a fail actually gos through, so all failures are left for me to sort).

My guess is somebody made a mistake by placing a 0.001 buy order at 0.01 instead. Otherwise, it does not make sence at all. With 0.01, even without difficulty increase, it takes 200 days to break even.

Pretty certain it wasn't a typo.  If you look at the history you'll see that the buys were done over quite a number of different orders - it wasn't one big order placed at once.

If there was a typo then it was when they did their calculations, not when they placed the orders.

BTCT has an additional check if you place an order that is far away from the current best prices (so very high buy-orders or very low ask-orders). I ran into this once in the past when selling something for X when there were a few units in a bid at 4X, and a ton more at X.

Don't know precisely how quick this check appears, but I doubt that this purchase was accidental. Which leaves me to wonder why it happened (and why today was the day that I could sleep in and my wife woke up early to feed our kid, which caused me to miss this opportunity Tongue)

Yes, you are right. Maybe just a rich new comer made a calculation error and did not have the patient to wait for cheap shares. After all, it was just around 40BTC, maybe not a big deal for some people.

But please forgive me and I am sorry to this unfortunate buyer if 40BTC means a lot to him, as it means to me. Although I missed this event and did not benefit anything from her/him.

I wonder why nobody is buying SELLING cheap price at 0.016990?
If I'm not mistaken the PURCHASE after the difficulty adjustment is around 0.0169

edit: and tomorrow dividend for SELLING is around 24%

Currently predicting 0.0163-0.0164 myself (the NAV/U that is, sell price will be +5%, buyback -2%).

This dividend just means the refund of the deposit. Normally the price will drop as much as the dividend. Whether the price increases or not later is more important. Certainly, it will be another story if we decide to hold the fund until its closing.

Probably some of the MINING holders doesn't know how this system works.

This was from yesterday's amounts, like how much it would have been able to mine the past 24 hours, and the difficulty was at 50.8M 24 hours ago.

Tomorrow we'll see our dividends shrink, I'm wondering how that will affect the price because right now it's at a pretty decent high.

The price of MINING will not fall, but the value will. Your estimate of what MINING and SELLING's values are will determine what you think the price should be.

The big ask for PURCHASE is missing.
