While I think you overestimate how slowly BFL will ship from here, I still believe AM won't have trouble staying a step ahead of them.
You are better informed than me so I bow to your superior knowledge, but I based it on the fact that BFL have continually been surprised by issues throughout. I don't think they can project anything very well beyond a few days. If they are saying now 2 months to clear the backlog I don't think a time loading of 100% is unreasonable, especially as the single is the most complex product they've tried to ship. Plus I see a lot of what they say in public as PR spin to keep existing punters happy and encourage new ones (not outright lies, just unguarded optimism). But I do agree that even if BFL *do* hit their targets AM will cope. Does anyone have an estimate as to how large (th/s) their backlog is? |

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Friedcat,
A team of us shareholders has taken the time to collect and simplify the most popular questions people have for you and ASICMINER. I am sending these questions to you at Jutarul's suggestion, and on behalf of all ASICMINER shareholders that took our poll.
I am only going to send 3 questions to you, in order to keep things simple, and to hopefully maintain this line of communication in the future. We understand that you might not be able to fully answer some things due to competition, but any amount of info will be plenty for us!
If you can take the time to answer, feel free to post your answers in your main ASICMINER thread, or respond to me directly and I will copy your answers verbatim.
Thank you so much for your consideration, here are the questions:
1. Can you tell us more about the next generation of ASIC chips? When should we expect them, and what specs might they achieve?
2. Does ASICMINER/Bitfountain have any legal risks by doing business in China? Are cryptocurrencies or mining of virtual currencies allowed there?
3. What contingency plan do you have in place if Friedcat or other important employees become seriously ill or otherwise unavailable as a resource to ASICMINER? |

I believe Burnside details what to do if something happens to him, not Friedcat. |

Well we have to thank Juratul as well for building up a strong support base along multiple investors Will be more difficult to see wild drops now hopefully (Need that time machine yesterday XD) From here on out we can see real growth and likely stability instead of spikes for a while In the Bitcoin world, a time machine is so desirable.
I'm working on one. You can re-post from the future and solve my question XD |

To the ones who wonders if the last three-four posts were relevant to the OP, Yes they are a part of the weekly euphoria caused by the divs on Wednesdays.

Shares on Bitfunder are crawling up now that that wall is gone... could go as high as 2.6 -> 2.8 once the PT dividends are thrown out there!

Does anyone have an estimate as to how large (th/s) their backlog is? more then 300Th is the low estimate more then 800th is the hi. http://bfl.ptz.ro/ this site is most likely low estimate. Total SC Jalapeno ----------Total Qty Little Single--------- Total Qty SC Single---------- Total Mini Rig------------ Total 2812------------------------- 998------------------------------ 2072 ---------------------144----------------------- 6026 12,654 GH/s---------- 29,940 GH/s-------------------- 124,320 GH/s------------- 216,000 GH/s-------- 382,914 GH/s $418,988----------- $647,702------------------------ $2,691,528---------------- $4,305,456 ---------------$8,063,674 This tables only show information that is gatherd in our database NOT all the orders from BFL - So double it you are at 750Th/s they have shipped very little of above. frankly I think that they have not the ability to do what is above no less double it. but if they can deliver that AM will take a hit in fact I think most of bit coin would suffer. |
