Guys sorry to ask dumb question , What is the difference between owning AM PT share & direct share in terms of price , trading the shares & dividends. Thanks for bearing with me  Owning direct shares are more secure as you are only exposed to the risk of Asicminer defaulting or friedcat not honoring payouts (not likely). You add another layer of risk by owning PT shares. However, PT shares are much more liquid as you can buy and sell them very easily. You can also buy as small as 1/100th of a share (TAT). Basically it's a tradeoff, Ease of entry vs. security. Also PT shares receive a slightly smaller dividend (I believe -%5) |

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Runeks, love your chart! Would it be possible to adjust your second chart, or add a new one, so that there is an overlay of the previous week(s)? Basically I want to easily at a glance see if we are doing better or worse then last week without having to hover over the line and count the days. Donations incoming after I get my next divs (spent last weeks on hookers and blow already) as I realize I look at your chart daily, and I have yet to donate to you!
Thanks! Donations are very much appreciated, and very motivating.  I'm working on this now. It might take some time, as I'll need to restructure some things. Also, I'm changing my donation address on the page, because the one displayed is from Bitcoin Qt, and I'm using Armory now. Just so you're not surprised if you see a new one the next time you look (I still have the Bitcoin Qt wallet, so they're not lost if they're sent to that address, I just don't see them until I open up Bitcoin Qt again). |

Anyone noticed the Asicminer ads?  What is the ad linking too ?
Maybe this page. But I don't get why they've only updated the startpost of this page with new pics. (Difference is that the new thread is 50 minimum instead of 300)Still don't get why those nice mining pictures aren't added to the startpost.. |

(and not a PM) edit:Can anybody tell me how this newly created block can be 'worth' 33.7 BTC? https://blockchain.info/tx/0d940ffe19e9ba005790c01101f9a317229bffb50b31e509e50dd81cb77615dc(the rest of the new blocks is about 25BTC + ~1% extra because of the transactions fees, not 34%  )Somebody just paid 8.6BTC fee |

My guess: Someone spent 8.7 Btc as fee. Maybe he wanted to do the miners a favour :3 (or more likely it was an accident) |

That's still considered an accident though, right? There's no valid reason to attach that large of a fee regardless of the number of BTC being transacted, right? |

Is this what you had in mind?  It shows that we were way ahead last week, compared to the previous week, but at about the same level this week compared to last week. It also shows the interesting effect of variance, when comparing this weeks increase in total mining rewards with last week's. We can see it went faster last week for a period (the red line rises faster than the blue line), but that current week's mined BTC caught up with it along the way, which it should if we're mining at the same speed. In fact, if we're mining at the same speed, the lines might divert for a bit, but should always converge at some point, which is what we're seeing. Good call about adding this chart! It's very useful for investors who'd like to know how we're doing compared to last week. |

Preview of ASICMINER's forum ads:  Love this add. Seems very well oriented. Who did it? You, TAT? |

The transaction had over 950 BTC in inputs so the fee comes to almost exactly 1%. Maybe a custom wallet that has a silly fee calculation formula? It is interesting that there was also an output for 0.01(ish)BTC. It really looks like a wallet bug. I wonder what wallet they were using because bitcoin-qt wouldn't do this. |
