Hi,
I read quite a lot about AsicMiner, but that share thingy is quite new to me. Can anyone provide some information regarding the eventual outcome of one share (how much is it actually and things like that?)?
Is it still possible to take part in this auction?
If my questions need to be more precise, please let me know.
AsicMiner is a company that decided to mine with their own hardware and finance it through initial shares. They also sell some of their hardware. They send dividends per each share every week. You can check the dividends per share every Wednesday on asicminer.info. Part of the dividends comes from mining and the rest from hardware sales.
Very often part of the mined coins is saved to be reinvested in new hardware with the purpose of increasing the hashrate of asicminer and try to keep a constant ratio respect the whole network.
There is a thread here in bitcointalk about asicminer if you need more info.
I advice you to read more before making any decision. By then, if shares are still available, you are welcome. Otherwise there are often auctions here in bitcointalk to buy them or in other websites like btctc.co.
