ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[finlof]

As of this post, the store is now down to less than 1,000 USB Block Erupter units. These are the last units that will ever be purchaseable from an official reseller (they are no longer produced and other resellers are sold out).

The price has been dropped to 0.06 for 1-9, 0.05 for 10-49, and 0.04 for 50+. These prices include free domestic shipping.

49-Port USB hubs are now available for every multiple of 30, at a reduced price of 0.05 BTC.

International shipping has been updated to 0.02 BTC + 0.01 BTC per unit.

Time passes quickly in bitcoin it only feels like it was a few months ago that these were top-line going at a btc a piece

original ones were 2btc/each

Are 45nm chips planned to go live? I thought the idea was to jump straight to gen 3.

That was my understanding too.
Gen 3 to be a "mature product" in Feb. 2014, but I haven't heard news of anything to be released before then.

So we're going to watch on empty containers for like ... another 3 months? Or what?  

Something is happening in 1st datacenter, are they demounting? :

anyway, it looks more like repeated failure, if you choose 12 hours

Is the last deposit from mining?

Yes, this address is AM's biggest franchisor.

We know nothing of substance until friedcat posts next. Most of us can't even remember what friedcat said was going to happen because it was so long ago and / or confused in its meaning.

None of us can confirm what will happen. Only one group knows and for whatever reason, they are as quite as a fried cat.

At this point I'm baffled that share price is even at this measly 0.4BTC price point.

Well, the mining wallet has already 278.67567769 BTC.

For the last dividend 329.70382331 BTC were transfered from the mining wallet.

I was wondering the same thing.

I woke up and smiled when I saw how much was in the wallet.

Now I need to pickup more shares on havelock

I'm baffled why the share price is so tied to the companies performance in a single week. Bizarro.

If AM produced 0 dividends one week would the price drop to 0?

That's the consequence.

Update

PR & Communications
We understand that transparency and communication to shareholders and the public needs improvement. We are in the process of identifying a dedicated employee for this. We will issue bi-weekly reports for shareholders and improve response time for questions.

Next Gen Chips
The projected time of taping out of Gen3 is January 20. Power consumption target estimation is <0.2W per G on low power mode and <0.2$ per G on wafer cost. Please notice that the timeline is of course subject to change/adjust, and the estimation on power and cost is also based on software tool/simulation results.

Current Hardware Sales
The number of cubes left for sale/deployment is 9000. About 1/3 are ordered already. All older devices (USBs/new blades) are sold out.

G.ASICMINER
If nothing unexpected happens, Ukyo will provide a shareholder list to Friedcat on Dec 1, for direct shares.

what's the size of the first Gen 3 deployment?  will you be mining with it or selling as hardware?  When is the expected date of release of this hardware?

about 28nm, yes, after Jan 20

So the hardware arrives probably in February or March.

3000/9000 were sold in a few days/weeks, right? I assume that the remaining 6000 cubes are sold out pretty fast, too. What happens after that?

Can someone let us know how this fares against the best competition around at the moment? thx
