Also thank you for clarifying the addresses for distribution question. Minted seats do not have this option correct?
Correct. As nastyfans policy states: "each minted seat set is assigned a permanent unique Bitcoin address".
so 25% goes to nastymining, that is ognasty’s mining operation - correct? I thought I read somewhere he receives nothing for his mining operation.
Correct. NastyMining is OgNasty's mining operation. nastyfans donates to the mining operation and not to OgNasty. OgNasty does not use nastyfans donations to the mining operation for personal usage. The NastyMining address is
public. OgNasty does discuss here before using NastyMining funds for mining operation.
You state threshold is .0005 - when I sign in, it shows threshold is .001 per seat - has that changed?
For online seats threshold is a setting with a minimum of 0.0005 BTC.
For minted seats threshold is fixed at 0.001 BTC. When you sign in you see correct threshold for type of seats.
I will ignore the nastyfans analyzer then - as it was direct linked to on the site nastyfans.org site - I thought it was updated accordingly.
Maybe it is. I do not know. nastyfans analyzer is run by another fanclub member. The analyzer uses public information from blockchain and nastyfans
mint data.
Mint.json shows .232950068 btc as undistributed as total of the amounts under the threshold.
Distribution History. This shows 567.7826311 btc distributed to seats and 164.7817028 btc distributed to nastymining - add this up and add the undistributed amounts and its with in .027 btc approx. Again could be spot on if I fat fingered a value.
Mint.json only shows minted seats. Undistributed amounts are also for online seats below threshold. And there are accounts on probation with undistributed amounts. Not all is available to public because it reveals much about members. Many members do not want information shared about holdings or status or ownership.
When you sign in and go to "donations" page you see exact status of all total holdings and distributions.
I also notice there are times (twenty four occasions) where amounts were distributed to nastymining but with zero to the seats - Does this look right? note - these are small amounts but if nastymining was to get either 0/25/50 percent (depending on the time frame), it would seem that if nastymining got a distribution that the seats should have as well.
As policy states seats only get distributions if every seat receives at least 0.00000001 BTC. As example if at distribution time 0.00030000 BTC donated to nastyfans then NastyMining gets 0.00007500 BTC and there is 0.00022500 left over. The left over is not enough for 30000 seats to receive at least 0.00000001 BTC so that Bitcoin carries to next distribution. But 0.00007500 BTC is distributed to NastyMining still.
I guess what I would like to see is what do people pay for the seats - ie what was the average paid price of seats on date of distribution - that would show if it was truly better to have bought the seats or if it would have been better to hodl the Bitcoin.
Online seats are sold on auction. Auction history is
public.
I have one question as well - it shows the number of seats for distribution as decreasing - why would the number of seats decrease? would it not increase over time as number of seats sold increases? is there a means to which a seat would stop receiving distributions?
All seats have owners. If you buy a seat then you buy that seat from a fanclub member that sells their seat. Online seat owners can choose to not receive donations. This results in less seats receiving donations. Online seats on suspension do not receive donations. This results in less seats receiving donations. Online seats of terminated accounts do not receive donations. This results in less seats receiving donations.
To understand nastyfans members it is maybe more interesting to see
membership history. This is number of member accounts.
