Thanks for the clarification on distribuition of shares. Seen 163,962 + 236,038 = 400,000.
40/60% split with Bitfountain having controlling interest.

So more than twice the power efficiency of the closest competitor? Wow!

From the translation of http://cybtc.com/article-655-1.html: he has created a baked cat mining machine If I didn't knew what they're talking about, I'd now be worried...

I should have gotten into Bitcoin back in 1992...

I don't really get the implications of this.

What's the power rating on one of those? Quite high  System specifications Power consumption: 1 Watt/GH PSU: 2 x High Performance 750W Power Supply Hope AsicMiner will be much better with lower consumption...

Will likely be many places. AM said they would only sell small batches of working miners and mostly focus on chip sales. So we will probably see a bunch of miners using their chips. For the small batches I have no idea how they will be distributed. They seem to just randomly pop up. The cube was first seen on wtcr.ca and taobao so who knows.

Needless to say my summary is going to be a bit late, other things got in the way and I underestimated the task of going through all the information available. Going through friedcat's posts chronologically has however lead me to understand an interesting story about how he got to where he was, first just looking at and evaluating mining bonds, to offering a kind of mining security comprised of different assets listed on GLBSE to then finally starting up his own company with some friends. Obviously there is more to it then that, but if anyone is bored I would highly encourage reading some old posts and seeing this story unfold for yourself.

Awaiting your summary, looking forward to it! Yeah, friedcat's posts are interesting, unfortunately there's fewer and fewer material coming up the last months.

Sounds like he has a lot of irons in the fire. I'm sure when there's something significant to report it will be reported. Until then there's probably no merit other than pacifying the rest of us.
It would be beneficial to have a synopsis of how we arrived at this point for sure.

I don't think anyone here who has held shares would disagree but this isn't about that. IPO investors who entrusted him with 500 BTC (~$5000 at the time) for a board seat (5000 shares) are now millionaires, go back and read that for yourselves. However, the question that many people here (speculators and soon-to-be shareholders) are wondering: Q: Is it more profitable to 1) just hold BTC 2) spend BTC to buy mining gear that is "ahead of the curve" 3) spend BTC to buy shares in mining company that develops and sells their own hardware It is highly recommended that those who decide to partake in any of these options to do your research, or you will just give away your BTC.
