I am sorry, about "difficulty rising so fast", are we talking about same bitcoin difficulty? Difficulty is going to drop slightly in 2 hours (shortterm) and dropped compared to what it was 5 monthes ago (longterm). Does not looking like dropping, well I cannot call it fast also. Just to clarify.

Regarding resell value - you have the bond to resell in the case of bonds.

yes, we're talking about the same difficulty that changed from 1.0 to 1.6 * 10^7 in last 40 months

Also, the total mined balance can be found here: http://blockchain.info/address/15XmWTsyLp6WVMCn52sSTm1tB9NXyP9fRM

The reason the final balance is less than the total received is I'm sending funds to GLBSE as they become available.

First mined dividend tomorrow!

Dipping into my personal funds a bit because some of the mined coins won't verify in time.

Should end up being ~1.5MH/s per share.

Mm. It means to get 150 Mhs or a little more I would need either to invest 50$ in a 5750 or 60 BTC=300$ for 100 shares. Maybe I better keep pwning mining hardware at home.

electricity bills: FPGA consumes far less power. As the FPGA is more and more common, the difficulty will rise and some of the GPU will be mining at a loss with a common electricity price while all the FPGA is mining at full power with profit. and the most the importantly,  Cognitive have to pay no bills. Garr pays it.

scalability: It will be very impossible to expand the operation for the GPU mining for a single person.

Liquidity: With the 5750 mining at your home, it will be less convenient for one person to quit the mining investment. If one wants to reinvest, it will have to wait for months to accumulate the mining revenue to buy a new card. However, if invested in the Cognitive, you can reinvest and enlarge your mining power every week and quit the mining investment at any time you want.

time: How many time will it save you from the cooling/monitering?

Capital gain: the FPGA.Contract is trading at a even higher valuation level. and since the IPO end to now, the share price have been increased by nearly 20%, while at the same time there is mining income.

Indeed it does, or maybe 150%

The dividends have been paid. Thanks.

A little less than 150% of last week though. Will you consider using a (>100% PPS) pool like Bitbond does?

Yes. I've already been accepted to Clipse's 110% pool but have not yet switched over the miners. I plan to do that this week, along with getting graphs fully functional.

Great to know that. Keep up with your nice work.

I've actually started looking forward to your expansion plan. Smiley

Just wanted to drop by and say how impressed I am by your operation.
This is how a Bitcoin company should be run, very transparent with everything on a very nice looking website.
Community needs more people like you. Much respect!

Speaking of uptime, we are getting through some downtime right now Tongue

I had to give my router a new IP, and MPBM didn't adjust on-the-fly, as most programs don't. I just restarted it and the bitstreams are uploading.
