ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[binaryFate]

So I think I messed up... but maybe someone can find my mistake...

I tried to take all the satoshi transactions that appeared on 5/29/2013 and put them into a spreadsheet.  When I did this however the total number of shares came out to be 64,459 which means... im missing some... right?

Some cool things came out:

1) There are 298 direct shareholders
2) The mean number of shares held is 216 shares
3) The most common number of shares to hold is 10
4) The largest holder of shares (in one address) holds 12590 shares

THESE NUMBERS MAY BE WRONG!!!! I only could account for 64,459 shares... can someone find the ones I am missing or explain why I can not find them?

Really cool! Where/how did you get the data about transactions? I guess you didn't do it by hand

It's likely that AM sends divs in more than one batch.

From what I know all satoshies are sent from 115tTroRo3B9ZDQ6ATJGDCHcNEVbjJoZnF, is this not true?

I dug through information on the blockchain and copy pasted stuff mostly.

I have no idea... maybe AM bought back shares over time? Who knows?

Well a simple check... do you see your address listed?   If not... what address are your satoshies sent from?  Maybe he has the PT's on a different transaction?

Mine is in the same batch.

Mine too.

You can do Data -> Sort range... then sort by Column C, Z -> A, and everybody can see
its relative position among share holders.

This is pretty useless since the transactions are split up in multiple parts.
(It was divided in 6 parts at the first dividend actually )

Edit:
I know that it started with 11 shareholders of 5k+, 21 holders had 1k+ shares, and 243 had < 1k shares.
At that point the # shares were ~163.5k

I merged all 6 transactions into this sheet... can you find one I missed?

So keep in mind that this only tracks actual holders of AM shares. Any PT or micro-PT shares won't show dividend transactions since that's up to the original AM share owner to distribute.

There should be 400,000 shares visible from dividends, then the fact that some are used for PT (and therefore dividends are transfered to other persons) does not change anything here.

How do you know when and how much of Bitfountain's shares get paid? It could be different from the rest.

Yes, right. But where are the missing ones? We find only ~65,000 ones, and Bitfountain does not hold all the rest?!

After seeing the Facebook page set up, i went to look into buying ASICMiner.com and/or ASICMiner.net. (To redirect to this thread or to a web page when friedcat wants). It seems that both web addresses have already gone, apparently through 2 different domain registrars. Did someone on here buy them or has ASICMiner lost its domain name?

"friedcat.net" is still available:)

It could just redirect to

Is http://www.asicminer.co/ an official site or a fansite?

It says: Create a free website with Weebly at the bottom, which makes me suspect it's the latter.

Its a fansite and it hasn't been updated since a month.. _{(just like the charts on the last tab, also not my website)}

I'm interested in buying shares in this group, but I'm not fully understanding of the process.

if I were to get say 100 shares at 2.5 BTC each what happens next? I do escrow and am then given an account to log into? How do the share holders speak/get money from the "company." ?

This is assuming I'm buying direct shares instead of PT( Pass Throughs ).

They are sent weekly directly to a public address of your choosing.

When you buy direct shares, freidcat is literally just changing the ownership of the previous address to your new address.
