Yeah, partners interested in BTC mining (or even just BTC) are sadly even more scarce than bitcoins...

You poor guys. I liked it so I put a ring on it.  Grin

No longer buying/selling Casascius coins. Beware scammers.

are there ways to buy the USB miner with fiat ? New comers who have a hard time getting BTC (having to go thru all sort of hassles, bitstamp/localbitcoin/mtgox or what not), might be interested to buy the USB Miner with fiat instead. It will definitely boost the sale, if FC decides to offer them this way and take a bit risk of exchange rate.

Any reseller could do it, no reason for FC or AM team to waste time 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".

I was thinking abt these new USBs, what if it becomes not a miner, but as means to purchase BTC from overcrowded and over-regulated exchanges.  This way people can still get some BTCs with their fiat money. Say a sudden move up to 5x in BTC price making the slow USBs still productive.  Isn't that the thinking?

exactly, although getting btc directly is more profitable, assuming theses USB never meet ROI, but people can get it now, instead of waiting for btc to be 266 and be able to get in.

cool yea there's another story behind it.  Though if say a reseller's customer has never owned BTC before and they've only had fiat and got a USB, then I'm not sure they don't meet ROI.

Since there's time decay to cash, if that customer doesn't do something then they'll have 0 BTC and 0 cash in time. atleast if they bot a USB they 'll still have some BTC. You'll have a positive BTC wallet.

Well, I was wondering how AM had managed to get so overvalued.

It's making more and more sense to me.

Yes I hope so.  the price got so low because i'm trying to come up long term stories to justify the value.

Vycid I saw you made out on the short side. Bulls and bears all make money.

I'm in it for some long term value.

Vycid has baited people into pages and pages of slanted arguments for his own personal short term gain.

I see, at least this is a healthy market, both bulls and bears. Good sign for the stock.

How abt these new USBs, they're thinner and more colorful, not exactly
obsolete products like what I expected.

Maybe there's more story to the details.

They USBs are cute and consumer looking. They look like a keychain.
In the next version, they can be a hardware wallet like the Trezor.
All the fashionable guys and girls can wear their AM BTC wallet on
their keychain. AM's got the branding started.  A lot easier to carry
their laptop and more secure than cell phone.

I'm so glad that Vycid executed those puts. Assuming that's why he's eased off the negative campaign.

I get the feeling he actually had an effect on the market....No way to prove this though i guess.

Has he executed all the puts? The first ones he publicly bought are only just coming up to expiry, and he was buying them for quite a while.
