[...] I invested because i get a reward. [...]
I guess everybody did. But the important part is the rewards over the lifetime of the company, which is why keeping some of the earnings in order to grow the company can be a sensible idea. I trust the management to make those decisions, they have a very impressive track-record of making excellent business decisions so far. Dont get me wrong... im with you at this point. But the discussion turned somehow into a direction where useless much bitcoins should be stockpiled that wont get a use. Some even spoke about div-less. I think its simply useless to keep so much bitcoins. There will never be a reward for doing so that is reasonable. I mean keeping dividends are a kind of investment into the company. And i dont see that much roi will come out of this investment. In fact i think friedcat for sure will have enough bitcoins stored to pay for important things coming up. Buying a new data center is the most important thing AM must do. I bolded your quote because you are wrong about the part I bolded. IMO
Flood happen
earthquakes happen
fires happen.
Tsunamis happen.
Having 2 locations to mine with is a must.
I would like AM to have 2 locations with extra off line blades. In both locations. Also a third location with offline gear stored. AM is about hashing multiple locations allow for disasters to be less harmful.
Ok, that is a point. Replacing the datacenter for 4% more would be a bad investment but having spread the risk to 2 datacenters has a worth. |
Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

and apparently Avalon starts shipping #2 source? Good news from the field. I just got an email from Avalon with a tracking number for batch #2. Wish me luck.
As always, thank you team Avalon. Wish I could meet you at the conference this weekend, but I didn't get the airplane tickets in time.
He also added screenshot with DHL tracking number |

He also added screenshot with DHL tracking number This is good, this allows ASICMiner to deploy more hash rate without drawing too much ire from the BTC community. I'm under the impression that the hash rates are there; the reason they haven't deployed is logistical (space, electricity, manpower) and/or taking too large of percent of total network hash rate. |

~ 0.015 from mining. ~ 0.021 from the blades auction (actual 0.0225, but I took somethink away because of handling and shipping costs)Income from new Block Erupter Blades sales? Minus probably something for investment, makes it pretty difficult to guess |

I think ThickAsThieves knows. Looks like his microshares have got dividends ready but I don't know how many microshares there are so IDK the div per share. https://btct.co/security/TAT.ASICMINER |

No it's not. Why should we joy over a decrease in Blades available to sell and a decrease in hashraste until the miners are deployed ? If we can hold 30 % with 20 TH we can sell more blades. If we need 40 TH for 30 % we cannot sell the blades. |

ok so I was a new shareholder and I panic sold on dwolla news... (feeling rather embarrassed admitting this, the FUD managed to get me... hmm) The fact that you've admitted it seems to at least prove you learned a lesson, hopefully not an expensive one. |

we all make mistakes, that's the way it goes. Go get some shares on bitfunder, they usually take a bit longer to pay out the dividends, so you'll still get them. They are also the cheapest right now. |

But I'm too used to having an itchy trigger finger at any news, and thought the benefits would outweigh the risks. (buying more BTC in a dip, buying more shares...) the resilient BTC community surprised me and I'm ashamed! Bought them at 1.49... now it's a tough choice but you know... that's life. now seeing some sales on BTC TC, does that mean divs are through? |

This thread is the first to know about divs. It's about this time every week where you see plenty of posts regarding dividend payout. |
