ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It

[mumchristmas]

Dividend was paid out just the passthru holders need to wait for them to be paid out if your on havelock just wait on TAT a bit

No, I'm pretty sure that's all direct shares.
Works great for weeks. But something wrong on this time.

Just mailed FC. Hope they can fix it.

Weren't we supposed to get dividends last night, or am I a day out?

[empoweoqwj]

My shares are at havelock - other people seem to have been paid, but I've had nothing. Anyone else not get paid by havelock yet?

No, not yet. Last dividend on Havelock is still as of 2013-12-11.

Your only point appears to be "gloom and doom" - so people don't sell mining equipment on eBay, I'm so shattered by this news ..... all industries mature and just have a  few big players. That's just what happens. Deal with it.

My point is that the industry is killing itself.  I think you underestimate the importance of the hardware aftermarket - altcoins generally aren't worth squat, look at how people flocked to PeerCoin and upped the diff there astronomically when it "caught on".  Same happens to any sha-based coin that hits exchanges in any form.  So for any reasonable ROI on most hardware you need the aftermarket.  Right now, folks are pushing towards things that can't really catch-on in the aftermarket, like a Neptune or an AMC.  Those are investments, big ones, for a market that is continually gouging itself from every direction.  

"all industries mature and just have a few big players. That's just what happens. Deal with it."

We're figuring out how to "deal with it".  Right now the community has responded with-

Shares in someone else's hardware => not worthwhile.  
Shares in AM => so far, not worthwhile.  
Anything shipping in auctions/group buys => not worth the BTC you spend.

What's left are the big players.  They're going big, very big, f' the community big.  Most of the people are currently invested in BTC will likely leave because you can't afford new hardware and nothing is worth the BTC you'd spend on it for partial ownership.  And any industry needs the peons, needs the folks who buy usb sticks on eBay, needs the customers.  

Right now we're hoping that our current "doom and gloom" outlook is wrong, but none of the "big players" are doing anything to encourage a healthy future for this side of BTC.

AM1 and AM100 dividends will come today, don't worry folks, just a bit behind.

Thanks for the update.  I was starting to get a little worried so I checked the forum...

What would you like the big players to do to help the situation?

That's the problem will being so darned reliable week in week out. A few hours late and we all start panicking

Google opened 2 new data centers, one in Singapore and one in Taiwan
http://googleasiapacific.blogspot.in/2013/12/our-first-data-centers-in-asia-are-up.html

The one in Taiwan is using water-cooling with a twist:
"We built this to be one of Asia’s most efficient and environmentally friendly data centers. One way we’re increasing efficiency here that’s unique among our global fleet of data centers is through the use of a nighttime cooling and thermal energy storage system. The system works by cooling water at night, when temperatures are cooler, storing the cooled water in large insulated tanks where it retains its temperature before being pumped throughout the facility to cool our servers during the day."

Friedcat, I think Google is saying: "bring it on". Will you accept the challenge?

Water? I think FC can trump that

ASICMINER shares have the privilege of getting all net profits till 0.1BTC/share from the day when dividends began to be paid.

I don't get this part. Does it mean that once 0.1BTC dividends per share have been given, there won't be more dividends?

Why are you quoting stuff from 2012 ?!? And no, it doesn't mean that

That formulation means that after 0.1BTC has been paid in dividends, Bitfountain (major shareholder of Asicminer) will also get it's portion of dividends. Until 0.1 all dividends (100%) have been paid to minor shareholders only. Anyhow, it doesn't matter anymore, dividends reached 0.6BTC already.
