ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[El Cabron]

Well I bought near .13 despite selling at .4ish days ago.

Wanted to sell more at .4 to .5 but I can not say no to buying at .13

Things could be better for sure, but I's not so sure AM is dead just yet.

I still trust friedcat. I think he is an honest person even if things go bad. More communication might be good however.

[El Cabron]

Also I want to say friedcat could have run with everything after GLBSE went down. He came back and paid out tens of thousands of BTC he could have kept. I highly doubt he is going to start scamming now.

All you guys calling this a scam, fuck you. Poorly managed recently? Maybe. Lets not go too far with this.

If getting over 600% profit in dividends already is getting scammed then feel free to scam me.

Don't be absurd.  Every scam must have bait.

- AM raised $200,000 in IPO
- AM paid out 500% in divs in btc (when btc value went up 5000%)
- AM does $4,000,000 usd worth of sales last month
- AM now has $9,000,000 in assets

Clearly a scam.

I'm not doubting that you've made 600% profit in divs, but calling that "investing" is absurd, as is expecting to repeat that in your lifetime.  But do congratulate yourself that you dove into this septic tank and resurfaced with a pearl in your mouth.

I'm fairly certain that AM will pay more than 0.6 BTC in dividends over the lifetime of gen 3 and 4 chips. I don't even know why you bother to try and spread FUD, pretty much everyone on these forums knows you're the biggest troll here and nobody believes a word you say.

Clearly!  

We're just too long-sighted to see that.

Consider reading the entire post before replying.  Some claim that helps

And I'm not even suggesting that, at the time you made your 600% profit, ASICMINER was setting out to be a scam.
Times were different back then, getting ripped off was still not a certainty and scamming far from a de facto business plan for bitcoin securities.
But time means flux, and today it pretty much is.

You seem desperate to make some sort of a point, jimmothy.  I understand that repeatedly getting taken by "securities issuers" is upsetting, and having your nose rubbed in it doesn't make you feel any better.
But trust me, give into the pain and humiliation which you deserve and you will learn from it, instead of simply reacting.

so the way i see it, (in order maybe to reassure me) is that, AM payed Batch1 (april) and batch2 (may).. selling the manufactured chips now.. and then paying for batch3 (june) as mentioned in previous update.
so divs should start over by july/august when they finally sold all 3 batches, stack up on selfmining operation and franchisees kicking in too?!

There is no friedcat.
"friedcat" is just an account with no RL name attached, Bitfountain could have easily changed account's owner down the line.

As long as he was giving regular updates yes, he was rightly labeled as reliable and trustable.
Then everything changed.
Like past dividends do not imply future dividends, past reputation do not imply you are still honest.
Especially if we don't even know who "he" is.

Nope.
They should have started a few days ago.
Delays means lies means never.

but on a realistic POW, this is a slow industry in that sens that miners still have to be manufactured and plugged whilst chip batches have to be payed in advance. they took their time to come up with those chips specs sure, but after that there is still a lot of work to go on with. no?

That's simply bullshit. Just because you don't know FCs real name doesn't mean nobody does.

i think its time we know tho. make the company a lil bit more official for shareholders since they deal with fiat now...

I don't think that's crazy at all and think that AM could pay out that much over the lifetime of gen 3 (estimated at 400-1600 Ph/s), never mind gen 4 as well.

Of course there is at least one name, at any given time, behind an account.  The real question is:  Do you know that name, jimmothy?

If by "everyone" you mean investing enthusiasts and finance aficionados, and by "troll" you mean "guy who has been right on the money, each and every time," than we're on the same page

And Mabsark, don't I remember you from at least some of the following:  Active Mining, NeoBee, HavelockInvestments, MintSpare, Seedcoin?  'Cos I remember folks protesting in those threads too.

Nope. Why?
If the demand for chips is huge, and supply is low and you have an access to double or triple your production capacity, then its better to just relocate profit and not pay dividends but expand your production and flood the market, if there is the demand. This is exactly what happened. Look at financial reports. Or just wait for answers from Friedcat and you'll see
