Like I said, IF they can get 1% of the network, they'll be worth .002. They have a long way to achieve even that.
Right, and if they get 2% they'd be worth 0.004, and if they get 5% they'd be at 0.01. We don't know what the potential outcome is, but at this moment they have about 0.06 - 0.08% which they build up over 2-3 days, with 400Gh/s added in one day (going from 350-750Gh/s) If they can maintain that pace they'll be at 5.6Th/s in two weeks. On the other hand we could also see an increasing pace over the next few days as their outsourced provider ramps up and so on. That said, being kept in the dark like this is quite annoying. It would be nice if they showed pics of their setup, where they are getting components from and so on. The share price would probably be a lot higher if we could actually see progress being made, rather then simply speculating about it. But either way, they've basically set a 'minimum' expectation. It no longer seems like this stock will "go to zero" and investors are risking 100% of their money. The rest of the price is just gambling on whether or not they can actually pull it off. Also, given your own price model, they would only need to get 1.15% of the network to justify their current price. Not much of a difference from 1.0. So essentially the current price isn't really out of line with your analysis anyway.

So essentially the current price isn't really out of line with your analysis anyway. Except that they don't have the 1.15% of the network to support it, and even by your calculations, won't hit that for months. You need the 1% of the network to get that value for the stock, that's the whole point. If they can maintain that pace they'll be at 5.6Th/s in two weeks. Yikes, so what, about .4% of the network?

I'm late for dinner so this is the last I'll post on the issue (I'm sure others are tired of this by now anyway). edit...For this example I've pegged the network hash rate at 1300 TH. I realize this is low, but changing it wouldn't effect the outcome ratio. As you can see, I've granted Labcoin 20TH on Nov. 1 (low) and Asicminer 100TH on Nov. 1 (high). Based on a 50% valuation, labcoin is undervalued by half at current price whereas Asicminer is overvalued by 2.86 x. Obviously both assets should have risk and potential factored in. What this should show is that Labcoin is undervalued due to risk, and Asicminer is overvalued due to potential. It is up to each investor to determine at what price point to invest, however, I believe that once burnside and Labcoin work their shit out and get the warning removed we will see less risk therefore a higher price point. I agree AM is still over priced, if they don't increase the hash rate soon. But again, ignoring hardware sale is not correct here. Many people complaining that they cannot reach ROI with the miner they bought. So selling 1GH in one week almost equals to mining with it forever. Remember money today is more valuable than it one years later. Actually, hardware sales is the most important advantage of AM and Labcoin compared with a pure mining contract, such as PETA MINE. I hope Labcoin can fix their issues now and get their 65nm chips as soon as possible. But comparing with AM only in Hashing rate is misleading. I will not do that even when I actually have ask orders waiting to be filled.

From what they promised, bringing up 20TH in two weeks. We can know that the good thing is that most likely, they've got enough chips and boards ready or available soon. They have secured a place to put their racks. They may have found a way to fix or workaround the stability issue, at least they believe so.
However, there are a lot uncertainties too. Their poor record of keeping promises makes us hard to believe them will achieve their goals in time anymore. No hashing rate increase yesterday also weakens the confidence (it was a working day after the holiday). Certainly, it may due to the typhoon, which also affects their plan of today. But after Monday, they really need a hash rate boost to keep their promise 'hashing ability is added daily'.

They might fall off the chart if they don't add hashrate today (Monday in China).

They had a 2 day national holiday before the typhoon, but it seems like Labcoin was working throughout to bring on the current hash rate.

Cant speak for hong kong but I've been in a bunch of hurricanes and the mania that happens before one hits (even if it ends up missing you) is pretty epic.

If you really think the price will tank, there are some reasonable put options available. Including one with a premium of 0.00015750 and a strike price of 0.00150000. That means if the price drops below 0.0013425 in the next 4 days, you would make a profit. And if the price drops below 0.001185 you would actually have a 100% ROI.
There are only 0.2btc worth available though, so you can't do a very big order.
On the other hand if you actually have less then 1500 shares you can use this to hedge your bet. If the price does drop you get a guaranteed sale price.
If there were any reasonably priced call options you could use them to hedge a long position - Instead of buying shares you could buy options, and if the price doesn't go up to where you want you just don't execute them. You would only ever lose the price of your options, whereas if you went 'normal' long you could potentially lose everything.
The problem is they're way over priced.

Is it possible we can harness the power of any future typhoons to bring online more hash power? We might have better luck with that.. ?

Sorry It is only about .2 btc, but I already have a few other options of mine purchased, and I do not wanna have my entire portfolio be option related.
