I think we're going for a (small) correction now!

With a stable hashrate and USBs selling like hot cakes ? There Might be close to the biggest divident yet this week if we dont have problem with hashrate dropping for one whole day again. And there is still the announcement of blades change in the air. BFL seems to not be shipping that much either anymore. Only negative news right now is avalon seems to be finishing their batch shipping but that should not affect it that much

[dragony]

The thing is that there is not much space for grow. And this price seems to me like 2 months earlier than it should be if we would have no competition.

Anyone anticipating a price correction on ASICMINER today with speculators snacking up AMC shares like hotcakes on BitFunder and BTC-TC? I have to admit I moved a bit that way, I don't want to miss out the next chance to get in early on something potentially big. Might be a nice day to sell some G-ASICMINER PUT's on BitFunder with their more flexible expiration timetable. Discuss?

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 (215 votes):

1) What are the plans regarding the Official ASICMINER Exchange? Have they been dropped? - 2.89
2) Does ASICMINER/Bitfountain intend to create and official website and/or blog outside of the bitcointalk forums? - 2.95
3) Do you have plans for a retail website? - 3.2
4) Does ASICMINER have plans to develop a marketing campaign to extend beyond word of mouth and business on the bitcointalk.org? - 2.88
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? - 4.08
6) When can we expect the first financial report? - 3.68
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? - 2.01
8 ) Could we have an official live hashrate meter from ASICMINER? - 3.17
9) For more transparency, is it possible to share a wallet address for depositing income from ASICMINER hardware sales? - 2.99
10) Besides mining, hardware sales, and fees, are there any other potential sources of revenue? - 2.34 (Note: This question was added significantly later in the voting process, therefore, about half of the votes are weighed as "1" due to the fact that half of the voters did not have the opportunity to vote on it.)

Please note: Voting has NOT closed! You can (and should) still vote! We'll keep the voting open for another 24-48 hours, and then we will compile results and submit the questions.

asicminer hashrate is a little bit like a rollercoaster ride nowadays. Now it seems like we're going in the direction of richland

I don't wanna bring bad news, but I expect a significant drop of ASICMINER-PT in 48 hours. Hopefully we will not see 2.8.

You didn't bring any bad news, no news at all in fact, just FUD. Enjoy.

And we have a fall in progress as I said.. :/

Hardly a "significant drop" as you said.

Just a small correction

Seems like someone is building walls on bid. Or it's just normal guys with some 600+ btc?

another troll to ignore!

Man, I am collecting trolls on here.  I need a tally somewhere...

Well said. Some people here think that anyone not participating in their circle-jerk and trying to inflate the share price is trolling. When you show them the maths to prove just how inflated the prices are, they start talking about buying in at the IPO for 0.1 BTC, like that's in the slightest bit relevant for someone looking to buy shares now.

The fact is that even if AM had a hash rate of 250 Th/s, with 400,000 shares at 3.5 BTC each, that works out to be just 178.57 Mh/s per BTC. In order for AM's mining operation to provide similar value to a 5 GH/s BFL, it needs a hash rate of around 2,500 Th/s at a share price of 3.5 BTC.

Then they go on about hardware sales and delude themselves into believing that people will continue to pay insane prices for the worst ASIC hardware on the market and that hardware sales are going to increase as will dividends.

They probably know they're full of shit and they're just trying to pump before they dump.
