Yes Franktank, except that the start was promised to be 12 TH, but only half is mining (publicly?) for months now.
True but friedcat did mention the "vacuum of deployment" and things were in process for the data center. I was just calculating the numbers mentioned. Note that this is only gross income from mining; it doesn't not account for hardware sales, electricity cost, potential downtime, wiring issues, etc. Giving everyone an idea of potential share value and how it may compare with the rest of the incoming mining landscape

At present time (current diff and hash power) how many bitcoin does 1 share equate to weekly and how often are payouts delivered?
thanks!

something around 5 - 7 mBTC per share per week (depending on costs - electricity and so on). Dividends are payed weekly.

That's at the current rates. You should look at future expansion too.

I think you need to look at your math again. If he buys BTC75 worth of shares at BTC0.75, that would give him 100 shares exactly. Using the last dividend, that would net him BTC0.25555300. Which, as you pointed out was small. Using the lowest dividend from a week without lots of expenses (March 7th) of BTC0.01917149, would have earned him...
Counting on future dividends of 0.01917149 is an unrealistic estimation. This amount was paid back when friedcat was trying to return all the money (or, as much as possible) to the IPO investors. Since then, friedcat has reduced dividends significantly. As others have estimated, dividends are expected to be around 0.006-0.007 (assuming no large expenses) given that AM has about 10% of the total hash rate. Why unrealistic? If they manage to solve the power and network problems they can bring online the other 6 TH and it would be 20% or so beyond the initial dividends then. Then there are the 50TH... i dont think its too unrealistic. Only because 240000 shares came to it now doesnt mean that this cant be compensated...

Hi guys, I've been out for a while, and was wondering how to manage my shares since GLBSE is out; I have around 100shares, and I've seen sites like BTC-TC and Bitfunder, that offer the possibility to manage them (asking first to friedcat)... Which one do you prefer? is there one better? regarding Security, fees, dividends, minimun shares or restrictions, etc... Thanks

While it's a pain to read through page after page of this thread to get to the meat of that subject there's so much valuable insight it's well worth the read. If however you're unwilling to devote the time to doing so then at least read this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=159194.0

we are at 7,1 TH/s, so only 4,9 TH/s remains But it was promised to be deployed by the end of march and we are in second third of april :-( True, but it's still better that BFL's promises by an infinite order of magnitude I was thinking maybe it would be nice to have a separate topic to follow the dividends history, comments and maybe speculation about them. As valuable as it is, this thread is growing overly large IMHO. So what do you think?

Well, at least 163,962 shares belong to other people. And from the remaining we can only speculate how many friedcat is holding himself since he has some partners.

Value of the company is currently ~ $60 Million USD... friedcat is rich now, yes. Well deserved I might add. He has also helped make a lot of others rich, too. Those who took the sizable risk of purchasing IPO shares have been rewarded nicely.

I would like that, although as "investor" who holds 17 shares I hardly qualify for creating and mantaining thread like that. Will you do it, please?

Market depth does not necessarily support that valuation.

Yes, good idea about separate topic and just about the 47 mln usd... in my country, Poland - food, houses and other things (like our currency, the PLN) are CHEAP so here... if you have about 300 000 USD we will call you "a milioner" I guess And BTW. Poland is a VERY safe country (Schengen Area). Come to Poland, Bitcoin millioners! I may pick you up at the airport!

Well I would qualify even less as I only have 14 shares currently on btct.co ;-) The dividends history is available on the trading site, the problem is that the news updates that are given by friedcat here must be sought in a massive amount of other user posts, so a "digest" thread would add to readability.
