So what's the best place to buy ASICMINER put options?

BTC-TC only has TWO contracts available. And they both have huge premiums.

Is there something better anywhere?

Put out how many you're looking for, what strike and premium you're looking for and what your time frame is - you'll get people to put them up. Possibly myself included.

If anybody has a link that explains how simply as possible how these put options work, please share. I'm a complete layman with this.

Monero's privacy and therefore fungibility are MUCH stronger than Bitcoin's. 
This makes Monero a better candidate to deserve the term "digital cash".

Fair request.

I'm looking to buy 20 American style put options with a strike price of 3.0 BTC and a duration of 90 days for 0.25 BTC per contract.

An American style put option is a contract that entitles the owner the right, but not the obligation, to sell the specified asset at the specified price (called the strike price) within the specified period.

If it's European style then it's at the expiration date.

Thanks for the link/explanation. I think it's best for me to stay away of this, the wikipedia article sounds pretty much like chinese to me  Smiley

Looks like the V1 chart is showing the wrong difficulty.  I would look there first.

Edit: Last two difficulty entries are off by an order of magnitude.

Ah now I see the mistake
187.28116 vs 18.72812

Thanks for pointing that out waits for the fix from SmiGueL I'll just divide the network rates by 10 and assume that was the correct division

That wouldn't be quite right, but is a decent approximation.

Fixed

Seems that the source changed the difficulty format a bit which shifted the dot by 1 number Tongue
(last 10 difficulty changes this wasn't a problem)
Please PM me next time when there are problems with the charts. I'll check this very often and it 'll keep the thread clean Smiley

Yawn. You don't need to attempt hyping AM with these pitiful one liners. They don't do anything (no one buys because you says it's #2 stock, you have no data to back up your claim). You and Elmore ASIC, act the same, yawn, registered within a minute of eachother.

Rockxie has been listing pre-orders for the new 5Gh/10GH (at 35W/70w) blades.   Rockxie is the Chinese distributor for Asicminer and I believe only sells to the Chinese market.

I've not seen any sites offering pre-orders outside of China.

General consensus is that we should see new hardware blade sales in dividend on the 24th.

I'm tempted I must admit. I'm a bit pushed for time at the moment - how many were you thinking of buying?
