let's see if I was right

you are wrong

anyway I think that there will not be a lot of USB miners sold yet, so I'm guessing that the dividend will be similar like last week - around 0.016 BTC

if some USB miners were sold it could be a lot higher

How much higher? If we imagine that all sales immediately go to dividends, then how many USB units already sold? Can we estimate?

I can only surely say that every 4000 of sold USB units would add 0.01 to divs, right? Maybe slightly less because shipping costs is subtracted (but not production cost, right?).

Do not try and bend the spoon. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth. There is no spoon. Then you'll see, that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.

Someone start some shit.
Or make a poorly supported argument.
Or, tell me ASICMINER is going to double or triple.

Your mom is gonna double!  Tongue

I think daily dividends is a terrible idea, since it will introduce much more variance, which is usually very bad for confidence.
Why on Earth are so many people supporting that?

Production cost would surely be subtracted. The company has to pay its suppliers and it pays them with the revenues it earns from sales.  You should also be aware that the cost of mining equipment for solomining must also be paid for by the company.  Speculation is that asicminer's profit margins are extremely high on sales, but it would be irrational to think they were 100%.

Reminder / Update

ThickAsThieves, VJain, Franktank and myself have put together the next round of questions for the community to vote on.

Once we have a consensus of the top three questions, ThickAsThieves will submit them to Friedcat.

The last round was a big success, so we will continue doing this for the foreseeable future.

The questions are available for voting here:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1M7wigyDWjKjabHKdC7msaEfXvYaNxtMbbmTIRss8EqU/viewform

Here are the results so far (183 votes):

1) What are the plans regarding the Official ASICMINER Exchange? Have they been dropped? - 2.9
2) Does ASICMINER/Bitfountain intend to create and official website and/or blog outside of the bitcointalk forums? - 3.02
3) Do you have plans for a retail website? - 3.3
4) Does ASICMINER have plans to develop a marketing campaign to extend beyond word of mouth and business on the bitcointalk.org? - 2.94
5) Earlier this year, you committed to a minimum of 10% of the network hashing being represented by ASICMINER, can you update us to the current goals for network % and for total hashpower in 2013 and beyond? - 4.1
6) When can we expect the first financial report? - 3.65
7) Originally, board members were going to receive a test unit of an ASIC mining device. Will you provide this or any other tangible items to board members in the future? - 1.98
8 ) Could we have an official live hashrate meter from ASICMINER? - 3.12
9) For more transparency, is it possible to share a wallet address for depositing income from ASICMINER hardware sales? - 2.98
10) Besides mining, hardware sales, and fees, are there any other potential sources of revenue? - 3.9


Please note: Voting has NOT closed! You can (and should) still vote!

The bid is 3.446 right now, with ~120 shares ahead of you... why would you expect anyone to purchase those in the past 24 hours?

nothing in the dividend payment address, yet.  We'll see if there is any hardware revenue to add.

I'm not sure this will happen this week. I think you'll find that they learned their lesson.  Also, the difference between last week and this week's dividend will not be much.

The profit margin on the USB eruptors is less than 50% what it was. There will be no windfall from those, even if anyone bites. And honestly the group buy buzz seems quite lackluster, certainly not anywhere near 2x previous volume. We'll see how btcguild's direct sales go.
