Yep, gambler's statement and gambler's mentality. Problem is winning streaks always come to an end, and if you are always always in, you are guaranteed "bust" down the line.
Its good you've opened another thread though where you can stress about every tick up or down in the share price, because as you've pointed out, you've invested everything you have in it. Good luck anyway.
thanks for the advice. remind me to send you a sense of humor one of these days...

Or a shareholder gets banned from Bitcointalk.org and doesn't have access to PM anymore?
This is where friedcat having a shareholder's e-mail address on file comes in. It would be an alternative means of informing friedcat that you want to transfer shares.

How many shares does ASICMiner keep for themselves, and how many are for the public?

What if a shareholder dies and one of their descendants wants to sell the share or have the e-mail address changed?
I'm thinking it should be the shareholder's responsibility to ensure that the private key to his/her registered bitcoin address is transferred to his/her beneficiary upon death along with instructions on how to get a hold of friedcat so he can update his database once the beneficiary has proven they now control the bitcoin address that the shares are currently registered to.

Bitfountain, a private company, is the majority shareholder in ASICMINER. -helixone It says in the first line from the first post of this thread: "ASICMINER is a virtual identity totally held by investors of the Bitfountain company." That implies that you invest in Bitfountain when you buy a share. The word "totally" is key.

Yes and at that point bit fountain owned the newly formed ASIC Miner in entirety and sold pieces of it to individuals. It sold shares of AM not bit fountain. See the difference?

they obviously have enough power to have 99% of network, they just not doing that, because that wouldnt be fair to the rest of bitcoin network,
Do I miss a main point when I suspect asicminer wants to keep the hashing network stable, what means no single party should be able do have more than 50% of hash rate!?!? That is ABSOLUTELY no point of fairness but of survival - for Bitcoin and therefor for Asicminer as well. But it might be the explanation, that so lots of devices are SOLD instead of adding them to the ASICminer pool: They will stabilize the hashrate distribution, so no one else will gain majority.

There is no need to respond. The only change to their percentage of the global hash will come from those gpu miners who decide to turn off their machines because they are no longer profitable at $100 /btc. I do not anticipate that this number will be very large, as it will be more than made up over time by additional ASIC miners coming into the game.

I've laid an intelligence trap for my descendants. If they don't care doing a proper investigation they don't deserve any of my Bitcoins. Instead you lot will inherit my coins when I die.

Well, they can't keep up 1.5 blocks per hour without increasing their hashing power.
